Chapter 217 – The “Purge”.
"So, this is the finished product, eh?" – asked Shadow Mask as he looked at the multiple metallic barrels containing an blue substance.
"Yeb. You managed to buy me enough time to create the plague and then produce it." – said Phantasia.
"As you instructed, the plague focuses on going monsters berserk while also strengthening them. Its in the form of the gas as you instructed as well."
"And as you can see, it's quite effective." – said Phantasia as he pointed at the metallic cage that contained an wolf monster that was straight up bending the metallic bars.
"Oh wow. Yea. This will do." – said Shadow Mask as he approached the caged beast that tried to get to him.
"Hey. Pack it up." – said Shadow Mask to his men that started picking up the plague barrels.
"…."
"Anyway…. I didn't wanted to ask… But didn't you put on some weight since I last time I saw you?" – asked Shadow Mask as he looked at Phantasia who was noticeable way bigger and thicker than before.
"Well, I needed to prepare myself, right? And proper preparations takes time." – replied Phantasia.
"Anyway, when? When the "Purge" is happening?"
"….2-4 days." – replied Shadow Mask.
"We need 2-4 days to finish up the preparations and after worlds we are instantly launching an attack the next day."
(Huh… I though… Well, they were preparing for the long time and stuff and so were I.) – though Phantasia.
(…. Wait. Don't they need to transport the plague barrels, distribute them and set them up and stuff?)
(If their plan is to cause monsters through the kingdom to go berserk and attack everybody, then setting up the whole thing would take time and they don't also want to get spotted, meaning that they would need to act sneaky, with in turn would consume more time…. Would 2 up 4 days be enough for it all?)
(Ah forget it. Let's just focus on my part.)
"And my target?" – asked Phantasia.
"…. Rose Tower." – said Shadow Mask.
"We are putting the strongest soldiers to destroy the Rose Tower and you have been ordered to assist in that."
"Understand. However, if you wish for me to attack the Rose Tower, I will need to start moving bit earlier than others, since my entire army is in here and I can't just snap my fingers and they magickly appear right next to me."
"Understandable. You will be informed when you are ordered to move." – said Shadow Mask before heading towards the door.
"So, without further ado, goodbye and get ready." – said Shadow Mask before leaving alongside his men.
"…"
(Well…My preparations are almost finished.) – though Phantasia.
(Still, 2 to 4 days? How are they going to set up all the plague… I just gave them that!)
(Maybe they had normal blue Lill drugs prepared in different locations so…. Wait, if they did, then why would they ask for me to create the plague? That wouldn't make sense.)
(Ah forget it.)
(Lets just focus on giving the finishing touches to my preparations.)
(And once these preparations are completed, I will be able to go on the proper fuking rampage this time! No fuking half asses modifications. No half assess chimeras. And no half assed nightmare toys.)
(This time it will be an proper fuking genocide!)
(My shop is still closed and both people that would be possible bothering being Diamond and Zeus had already been dealt with. They wanted to buy some poison resistance items and since I knew people would need them sooner or later, I had already made some beforehand.)
(Now, there is nothing standing in my way!)
"…."
(Expect the fact that I need to somehow move the army of these monsters I had made in secret…. This time I made a lot…. Yea…It will take a while.)
Two days later, the preparations for the attack had been finished.
That meant only one thing, it's go time.
Upon receiving the orders, I moved my forces in secret and oh god. Moving these fuckers around took way longer than I had though… Maybe I shouldn't have made my secret base so close to my fuking house… That was extremely dumb decision.
Anyway, I managed to somehow move my forces in secret (Well I kind of needed to kill few random people and hide their bodies) and managed to arrive at Aka city.
The quest I was given was simple. [Destroy Rose Tower and all its inhabitances] and well, just as the quest name describe, I need to kill them all. Simple.
And as soon as my forces started getting near the city, the attack order was issued.
The "Purge" had begun.
"…. Huh…. Weird." – said the guard on top of the wall.
"Hm?" – other soldier looked in the direction of the first soldier.
"I mean, there were monsters attacks happening all through the kingdom… And here? Its just peace." – said the first soldier.
"Well, the attacks were usually happening around the edges of the kingdom…. There is maybe an chance that it was something like an invasion force." – said the second soldier.
"!"
"Are you saying some nation is trying to attack us?!" – said the first soldier.
"I don't know… But maybe its related to Rose Tower? In recent years they had been acting strange… So, I wouldn't- "
"ALARM! SOUND THE FUKING ALARMS!" – shouted the soldier that rushed towards the two soldiers.
"?"
"DON'T YOU TWO FUCKER SEE THAT?!"
"?"
"?!"
"OH SHIT!"
Right outside the city, the two armies were running straight towards the walls.
One of the army consisted of the enslaved demons and angels.
While the other army consisted nightmare toys, golems, chimeras and undeads.
"We are under attack! Raise the alarms! NOW!" – shouted the soldier that rushed towards the bell and began ringing it, alarming the other soldiers and the city itself with the help of the magical bell.
"Send the messenger…. Wait… Why is the bells rings from there?" – said the soldier as he noticed the sound of the second bell being ringed on the other side of the city.
While the two different armies were heading towards the city, an third one had also made its appearance. An army of the frenzy monsters that had been infected with the plague.
It was an three way attack.
But it wasn't just the Aka city.
"SHIT!? THE FUCK IS GOING ON?! WHY THE HELL MONSTERS ARE HERE?!" – shouted Zeus as he was fighting the monsters that were assaulting the city.
The frenzy monsters attacks were happening all through the entire kingdom.
Cities. Town. Villages.
Many settlements were getting attacked by the hordes of the monsters that went completely frenzy, causing these creatures to seek out the nearest settlements and destroy them in order to hunt down the people.
[Quest have been generated: Aka city under attack.]
[3 unknown armies had made an sudden appears and are attacking the Aka city!]
[Repel the invaders.]
"?"
"Wait, an quest?" – said the player inside the city.
"You too? First these annoying bells and now q… Wait. Under attack?" – said the second player that read the quest title before moments later and sound of multiple explosion could be heard going off in the distance.
"?!"
"What was that?"
Right outside the city, the three armies of monsters began attacking the city gates.
"FOR FUCK SAKE! WHY THE HELL THIS SHIT ALWAYS HAPPENS DURING MY SHIFT?!" – shouted the knight before getting grabbed by his face by an giant extendable claw arm and then getting thrown right off the wall.
Moments later, the mechanical monkey monsters that had their bodies made out of instruments began climbing over the walls while causing the random instruments that made their body to play.
The soldiers rushed at the monkey monsters, but the instrumental monsters were way more dangerous than they had though as these beasts machine began swinging their arms around, slashing to pieces the soldiers, while sometimes grabbing them and either slamming them against the ground or straight up throwing them off the wall to the horde of the monsters.
"Fuck! How the hell those goofy looking monsters are so strong?!" – said the terrified guard as he tried backing away, only to get grabbed and pulled towards the monkeys.
While the guards were trying to desperately trying to hold off the monsters, even more of the Phantasia creations began climbing over the walls, however as soon as more monkeys climbed the walls, the blast of fire came straight their, blowing up the monsters.
"!"
"THE MAGES! THE ROSE TOWER MAGES ARE THERE!" – shouted the soldier as the mages began making their appearance.
"You. You are servants of the Doctor." – said the mage that landed on the wall.
"Didn't your master learned to….?"
"?!"
The flames dispersed, revealing their still alive monkey toy monsters.
(They didn't got destroyed?! How?!) – though the mage before being forced to deploy barrier of fire to block incoming extendable arms attacks.
"!?"
(The power of these things are also different?! The barrier got already damaged?!) – though the surprised mage as he realizes that the nightmare toys he is facing right now are nothing like the toy monsters he fought during first Doctor attack.
While the mages were occupied with the monkey monsters, even more creatures began climbing over the wall, causing more trouble for the defenders.
However, an giant claw had reached the top of the wall before moments later an gun barrel had emerged, shooting and firing an blast electricity that hit the fire mage and instantly blew him up.
"?!" – the mages looked in shock as one of them got instantly taken down with an single attack without them even noticing the attack coming.
"Huh. Welp, this feels like cheating." – said the giant figure as it climbed over the wall.
The giant figure wearing an coat, plague doctor mask and the evil top hat climbed over the wall while having its entire arm that was in the form of an gun be turned back into an humanoid looking arm with claws.
"Greetings, dipshits. I'm Doctor."
"And your diagnostic? You are fucked."
