Chapter 60.2. The Battle Begins!

-Adamantine's POV-

"This is not good. The army doesn't understand the point of relying on adventurers."

"Oh, they can't handle it. That's why they asked us to help them. No prideful warrior group would offer to help out for a reward."

Adamantine clicks her tongue at Martini's leader's answer. The calmness of the soldiers in their iron spider who had notified them had worked in a bad way. The people are too calm, and everyone feels dependent on the army, more than they should have.

With a thud, the tank guns roared to life, and the smoke from the guns drifted away. Ahead of them, trees in the forest, now off-limits for the party, are blown away, and a cloud of dust and smoke dances in the air.

"Oh! I've never seen that before!"

"That's amazing, father!"

"Is that a magic weapon?"

As people cheered their bravery, the four multi-legged tanks advanced into the forest, this time firing multiple missiles from the missile pods on their backs.

The missiles soared high into the sky, changing angles and falling into the forest leaving a plume of smoke in their wake. Flames billowed like a storm, burning the forest as soon as they landed.

While the people cheered and cheered and did not evacuate, Adamantine poured mana into her magic armor to activate it.

[Connect, start activation.]

The magic armor activated with a familiar and dependable sound. Adamantine attached the visor hanging from her waist to her face and quickly assembled the double-edged axe from the trunk case she had prepared at his side.

[Started successfully. Genbu type 15 drive]

When Genbu type 15, which has been on the market for 7 years and has become a considerable rotor, is fully activated, the worn armored part of the armor spreads, the black line runs, and the color changes to white. It changes. A magical barrier wrapped around his body, and Adamantine gripped her axe tighter.

"Tsubame!"

"Aiyo!"

A fellow scout, who she's called, summoned a hawk and sent it flying into the sky. The hawk quickly soars to an altitude where it can see the forest. From there, Tsubame clicked her tongue at the sight she confirmed with [View Sharing].

"Leader, this is bad. The whole area is covered with mantises. Oh, that's a Scissors Mantis."

"Damn, there's an egg somewhere!"

Immediately, Adamantine grasped the situation. Scissors Mantis are dangerous monsters that can give birth to thousands or even tens of thousands of offspring. They're dangerous monsters because when they escape the dungeon's restraints. They'll attack the city in large numbers.

"Oshi!, all of you, hold your ground!"

"Oh, well yeah."

"Yes, sir."

To counter the numbers, her companions invoke the spirit Flame and summon the dire wolves. Her party is accustomed to this. Her party lives and breathes fighting monsters.

"Look at the monsters!"

"There are so many of them!"

"L-Let's run away!"

Someone screams at the sight of the forest. Adamantine sees an avalanche of mantis, some two meters high, coming toward them.

The tank gun fires again, and the iron spiders start to shoot the machine guns attached to both hands. The scattered bullets hit the swarm of scissors mantises and blow some away.

"Please act calmly. We have enough protection here. Warriors and adventurers, please exterminate the escaped enemies."

The soldier's calm voice came from the speaker, and the iron spider headed straight for the mantises' group. They're planning to use them as decoys.

"Ha! The soldier on that tank seems to have a very big heart."

"That's right. Why are they so calm?

The people who had been rushing to escape were not confused by his calm words, and most of them began to flee in an orderly fashion.

Adamantine impressed that they're indeed the defense force protecting the imperial capital moved forward with her companions. The Martini men were also ready with their weapons and lined up next to each other without fear.

The iron spider is surrounded by countless monster mantises, firing their tank guns and scattering shells with their machine guns. The mantises that aren't facing the iron spider are coming toward Adamantine's party.

"Now then, it's a festival attraction, so we've got to get fired up and play an active part!"

Adamantine and the others roar and begin to battle the approaching scissors mantis.
