Episode 30 – Variable Mass (5)
“Did you say an unidentified monster?”
“Yes, my king. According to the words of the defeated soldiers, they are monsters in black armor, and their appearance is terrible, as if many demon beasts were mixed together!”
“I’ve heard that they’ve definitely seen some brown orcs! But all of a sudden, unknown monsters!”
Andras, the goblin king with a crumpled face, slammed the handle of his throne and shouted. He couldn’t hide his anger. The allies were defeated, and Roach, a valuable confidant, was also killed. And it was because I had even heard reports that the culprits were Orcs.
“It’s true that there were orcs, but they said it was the monsters who actually fought with the allies.”
“Kuh… What kind of plan are the orcs plotting?”
Andras gnashed his teeth. Even before liberation, the Orc race was the mainstream of the Demons, incomparable to the Goblin race. Of the 72 lords, as many as 9 were Orcs.
Since the default values were so different, even the proud Andras had no choice but to admit that they were stronger even after liberation.
“Sounds that the orcs can handle such monsters… What should I do now, my lord?”
“What are you asking! They are enemies invading our territory! The cause is with us, so assemble an army right now!”
Andras could not stand it any longer. After the 72 lords divided the demon realm into 72 territories, it became customary to notice each other when large-scale armies were moved, but it made no sense to ignore them when they were obviously damaged.
“Report, Luca! How many soldiers can we mobilize right now!”
“100,000. 100,000, my lord.”
The 100,000 goblin army reported by the henchman. It was by no means a small number, and even this was not all. If we gathered the strength of the villages scattered all over the place into one, we could have extracted several times more.
“According to reports, even those black monsters are thousands. So 100,000 is enough. I will send an overwhelming number of elites to warn those who are scheming and stomping on them at once.”
Andras’ eyes flashed. This 100,000 troops is the majority of troops that can be mobilized in the area under his direct control, and the main force of the Goblin Kingdom, since the Great War.
It was a look that revealed a strong will to trample on by force no matter what the opponent did.
“Since unidentified monsters have invaded the northern part of the territory and harmed thousands of people, will you mobilize an army to push them out? Are you sure?”
“That’s right. So, don’t misunderstand me.”
The owner of the wild wasteland right next to the goblin kingdom, the werewolf warchief. He sneered when Andras contacted him.
“You stupid goblin. What did you do to get attacked?”
“According to the intelligence I overheard, it seems to be related to the brown orcs.”
“······Orcs started a fight first?”
However, when the story of another neighbor, an orc, came up, his face hardened. It was a completely different story to have competing neighboring lords shoveling in the house and having a fight between lords.
The 72 lords strongly agreed to respect each other’s domains from the beginning, as the subject of killing the demon king and ending the war could lead to a civil war if done wrong.
“Even if that’s the case… aren’t we good?”
That’s why the lords secretly hoped that other lords would take care of themselves. It would have been better if they crossed the line and fought among themselves and perished. Because you can eat the ruined land.
“Are you ignoring me?”
“There is no need to step out unless the army is heading towards us. I covet the empty base of the guy, but I can’t give the other guys a justification for being judged, so I have to watch it.”
Showing his teeth and smirking, the wolf declared that he would be still.
And not only him, but all neighboring lords also showed similar reactions. Thanks to this, the goblins were able to fight the unknown enemy without any hindrance or support.
***
[A large army of goblins is moving. It’s not a bunch of idiots who gathered up the frontier villages you’ve dealt with so far, but the command is the elite unit of the Goblin King who went through a great war.]
“Well, what is that number?”
[Currently observed, it is about 50,000, but there are more than that, so we are looking at at least 100,000.]
“Poem, one hundred thousand!”
The Demon King, who escaped the northern forest and expanded its territory to the entire northern region, was able to scout even farther. It was also thanks to him that he observed the large army that had just left their base and started to cross the plain.
And when Yuria heard the number of the goblin corps from the demon king, she was horrified.
After the Great War, it was not enough to be liberated from the rule of the Demon King, so the growth of the Demons, who began to grow explosively through their own exchanges and development by sharing the land, was by no means weak.
[Allies are currently preparing for battle with 46,000 units, and the number can be increased up to 250,000 when entering total war.]
The Demon King, as always, was just calculating hard in a calm state.
“Fifty thousand…! That, then I might be able to win enough.”
[However, the moment we enter into an all-out war, we also suffer a great loss.]
Yuria clucked her tongue at the overwhelming number, but the Demon King denied her hope. The maximum number of 250,000, which was extracted by concentrating all the capabilities of the Demon King’s army only on troop production in an all-out war, is the largest number that can be commanded with the computational power of the current command system built by the Demon King.
However, the moment a certain number is exceeded, the link of nutrient supply, production, and circulation is completely broken. The demon army cannot reproduce. In the place where everything is eaten, only the nest remains, and nothing that lives and breathes remains.
In the meantime, overproducing troops will upset the balance, further accelerating devastation and nutrient shortages. It meant that the demon army, which lacked even the nutrients needed for evolution and development, would eventually die from being unable to cope with its bloated body.
[So this time we have to fight in a situation where we are outnumbered with only half the enemy’s troops.]
“Many of them are elites who handle witchcraft and martial arts. If we can’t stamp them with a large number of numbers, how can we, who can’t handle magical powers, win?”
[Through strategies and tactics that use the strengths of allies.]
The demon king looked around at his body, which had grown incomparably larger than in the past. One shot of the enemies, which can be called vested interests, is clearly strong.
However, the Demon King also had enough strengths that differentiated him from his enemies.
“Maybe the demon gave an oracle.”
[That’s right. Since he is always with us, there is always a way.]
The Demon King affirmed YuRia’s carefully conveyed words. Even at this moment, the Demon King was communicating with him.
Make sure to read from noble mtl com
Naturally, he said he would do everything to help the demon king win.
‘Also.’
However, YuRia, who slightly misunderstood that, nodded and strengthened her faith again.
“So, what is your option to avoid a head-on fight with them, Box D?”
[War, not battle. I’m trying to expand the concept.]
“I think it’s a good way.”
The demon king grows up. The more data is accumulated, the steeper the growth. that’s artificial intelligence In particular, its strength was greatly demonstrated in battle.
Duplication and overlap of experiences. This is why the movements of the Demon King’s army in the field are getting better and better.
“Show me the map. I might remember something.”
But it was still not enough. Clearly, he made an objective judgment that he was inferior, realized that he needed a variable to overcome it, and reached the level of twisting the major premise for that variable.
However, he couldn’t make a decision after that, so he stepped forward for that.
The human brain, which can help artificial intelligence, has been added to the strategy of the Demon King’s Army.
Of course, his brain was that of an ordinary person, neither a great tactician nor a genius of the century, but the brain of the demon king assisting him assisted him by calculating the possibilities and variables of the moment.
‘How about thinking of it as a game?’
The map displayed on the screen by the demon king, who had been eager to gather information, showed not only the terrain of the area, but also where the demon army was deployed and where the enemies were.
He judged it to be like a mini-map in a game.
“How about disturbing the rear? Originally, to stop the advancing enemy main force, it is efficient to rob the main base.”
[It is not yet known how much power is in the enemy’s base, so it would be better to attack other nearby cities.]
“That would be nice.”
He focused on the mobility of the Demon King’s army, which had flying species. With the addition of the devil’s supplement, a strategy was created to hit the enemies in an instant.
“If you’re going to avoid the main battle at all, why don’t you go to the ground?”
Even on the ground, the mobility of the Demon King’s army, which did not eat, drink, sleep, or rest, was superior.
With just one keyword, rear disturbance, the demon king’s army came up with a strategy to attack the enemy by splitting their forces into 10 routes.
[But if you do this, the strength of the main unit will be pushed further.]
“It’s just wasting time. I think it’s possible… After all, this isn’t a real game.”
A game in which everything is done according to the player’s choice even if it is a wrong choice. But now, this situation is not a game, but a reality.
He was convinced that the demon army, which is like a part of the artificial intelligence demon king, could move like the units in the game, but the living enemies would never be able to do that.
“It’s not a game where the troops or facilities pop out just because you put in resources. Destroying their cities and destroying their production facilities takes a lot of energy and takes a lot of damage to restore them. but we are not Even if the nest is destroyed, we just regenerate it.”
The strength of the Demon King’s army in the act of war is quite strong. He thought he might be able to win easily.
[First of all, we will divide the troops and dispatch the flying species.]
The demon king army, which was as if connected to a single network centered on the hive mind demon king, was incomparably faster at sending and receiving commands.
The Demon King prepared the flying soldiers separately.
Makai Shuri Beta, which has been modified based on a giant eagle, is a bike-sized monster with a light body only for flight and sharp claws of birds of prey.
In addition to that, the beast dragonfly Alpha with six hooked feet and a tail with poison needles was the main axis of flying species.
The most efficient and strong soldiers created by analyzing and combining the data of countless creatures based on accumulated experience.
Of course, there is still a lot of room for evolution.
[sally.]
The Demon King sent them on a sortie. The sight of thousands of living creatures flying up into the sky all at once and starting to head somewhere was definitely spectacular.
