Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 55

The Demon God’s Vault Has Been Raided – Episode 55

Chapter 55

-Any damage inflicted on the castle from this point forward will be treated as a formal siege.

-Castle items cannot be acquired through methods other than a siege.

Numerous other rules were being established.

It was clear to anyone that these rules were suddenly created because of Se-un’s actions.

‘Well, I’ve looted enough items to be satisfied.’

In fact, he had looted quite a lot.

He had expected to use such tricks only two or three times at most. It seemed the response was delayed because they hadn’t anticipated the variable in the fourth district.

Besides.

‘It seems impossible to loot any more anyway.’

Perhaps it was because he had been too flamboyant in raiding the castles?

The castles, which had been lax in their security because players other than Se-un’s clan had not yet arrived, began to tighten their guard.

The explosions were quite loud, and even though the castles barely communicated, the soldiers’ shouts and screams provided enough information.

As he was about to organize the acquired items and leave,

Beep, beep-

A signal came from the communication stone he had turned off.

When Se-un injected mana, the communication stone emitted a radiant light, and soon someone’s voice was heard.

-Se-un, can you hear me?

“Yeah, I hear you.”

-That’s a relief. I was worried because I couldn’t reach you earlier.

“Ah, I was a little busy.”

Yoo Seo-ah’s relieved voice came through the communication stone.

He had turned it off because Park Jung-pil was being annoying, but it seemed he had been trying to contact Se-un continuously while he was raiding the vault.

“Is something wrong?”

-No, the movement is going smoothly.

“Then?”

-That is…….

-Hyungnim! Hyungnim, it’s Jung-pil!

“What is it now? If you’re contacting me for another trivial reason…….”

-I found it! I discovered a glittering castle that looks different from the other castles!

Finally found it.

The Golden Castle.

* * *

Upon hearing the news, Se-un immediately returned to the clan’s location.

The distance was farther than expected, and by the time he arrived, the sun had already set, so they rested first.

Honestly, he was eager to start the attack right away, but everyone in the clan had been running non-stop since the third tutorial, so they needed time to rest.

In the meantime, after granting Kang Han-cheol’s request for a sparring match, time passed, and morning arrived.

“How is it, Hyungnim? I found it!”

“Good job.”

The Golden Castle. True to its name, the walls sparkled dazzlingly in the rising morning sun.

It wasn’t actually made of gold, but the way the iron walls shone brightly in the sunlight made it look as if the walls were made of gold.

[ Golden Castle ]

Classification: Castle

Grade: A+

Description: A fortress surrounded by golden, brilliant iron walls. It is the ultimate fortress, boasting excellent defense as well as various defensive weapons and armed soldiers.

Abilities: 1. Golden Iron Walls – The walls do not collapse. The soldiers of the Golden Castle take 30% less damage from all attacks.

2. Golden Armaments – All defensive weapons or soldiers’ attacks within the castle ignore 30% of the enemy’s defense.

3. Increases all stats of soldiers inside the Golden Castle by 15%.

4. Once a day, can use ‘Golden Light’ to stop the enemy’s movements all at once.

Se-un smiled as he checked the information of the Golden Castle.

An A+ grade fortress.

Considering that the castles he had been raiding were all between C- and C+, this was an overwhelmingly high grade.

Naturally, its abilities were tremendous, befitting its A+ grade.

Unlike other castles, it had powerful, versatile effects no matter who occupied it. Moreover, the castle itself had a unique skill.

If they occupied this place, the difficulty of the next fifth tutorial would definitely decrease significantly.

The problem was…….

‘It’s just as difficult to capture.’

The abilities he saw were also applied to the monsters defending the castle.

The level of the monsters was already high enough for an A+ grade castle, and on top of that, they received such effects…….

Honestly, he wondered if it was even meant to be captured.

While contemplating how to capture the Golden Castle, the two Constellations watching Se-un also reacted.

-The Constellation, ‘The Bowed Crow,’ nods, saying it’s quite a magnificent castle.

-The Constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince,’ collapses to the ground, saying his stomach is sticking to his back.

‘Come to think of it, I haven’t used the Authority of Gluttony since the ogre.’

Come to think of it, it seemed like the first time he hadn’t used the Authority of Gluttony for so long since starting the tutorial.

It had only been less than 24 hours, though.

Se-un soothed the whining Beelzebub, telling him to wait a little longer, and finished preparing for the siege.

Once they entered that castle, Beelzebub would use the Authority of Gluttony even if he told him not to.

“Se-un, everyone is ready.”

“Everyone has worked hard. Once we capture the castle, there won’t be much to worry about until the next tutorial, so let’s 힘내자 [himnaeja – let’s cheer up/do our best] a little more.”

“Yes, but how are you planning to attack?”

It was Se-un who had insisted on finding and capturing a difficult castle in the first place, so it was natural for Yoo Seo-ah to ask such a question.

Se-un had also been 고민하고 있었다 [gomin hago isseotda – contemplating/worrying] how to capture the Golden Castle while resting at night.

‘At least climbing the walls like before won’t work.’

The first thing that came to mind was, of course, hiding and infiltrating the interior like the castles he had raided earlier.

If successful, he could easily open the gates and even attempt to assassinate the lord.

However, this place, the Golden Castle, was impossible. Unlike other places, there were about ten monsters guarding the gate, not just on the walls.

No matter how good ‘Kilke’s Stealth’ was, it was impossible to infiltrate the Golden Castle.

Then the only option left was one.

“A frontal assault.”

“Is that possible? There are already ten monsters guarding the gate. There must be dozens of times more monsters inside.”

“I know. There will be at least two hundred.”

The monsters of the Golden Castle.

Activating the One-Eyed Vision of the Emperor Eagle, he saw their identities.

‘Glory Orcs.’

A higher species of orcs, similar in size but with much higher physical abilities and intelligence.

It would have been fortunate if that was all, but they were wearing golden armor befitting the name of the Golden Castle.

Equipment that looked high-level at a glance. It was clear that ordinary spears and swords would probably not work.

“Blood Wolf oppa [term of endearment used by younger women to address older brothers or male friends]! Shall we make siege weapons?”

“Han-cheol oppa probably can’t break that gate either!”

“We can make more catapults if you give us time!”

The twin sisters approached with confident smiles.

Behind them were the catapults, resized with the power of the Constellation, which seemed like they would be of great help in this siege.

However…….

“It’s okay.”

“Huh? Why?”

“Then how are you going to break down that gate?”

“The gate is…….”

Se-un recalled a few new weapons he had acquired.

It would have been different if he only had the cheap weapons he got from the goblin vault, but now he was well-prepared.

“I’ll break it.”

* * *

[ Tutorial Third Chapter – Collision ]

-Other players have successfully completed the task.

-Other players will soon enter the area.

Just before starting the siege, a message appeared, announcing the end of the third tutorial.

It was quite far from the starting point, so players wouldn’t be visible right away, but soon players would start to appear one by one.

So.

“Let’s finish this before any interlopers show up.”

“Yes!”

“Understood, Hyungnim!”

Se-un’s clan officially began the siege.

Everyone got into battle stance and dragged out the siege weapons made by the twin sisters.

Naturally, the Golden Castle noticed this and drew their weapons.

“Kweek! Stop! If you come any closer, we will consider it an act of aggression against our Golden Castle!”

Glory Orcs.

They were supposedly a higher species with better physical condition and intelligence than ordinary orcs, but listening to the sound of wind coming from their mouths every time they opened them, it didn’t seem that way.

“Suit yourselves.”

-Through internal energy, the Second Form of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, Blood Wolf Fang, is enhanced.

Swish-

And the moment Se-un beheaded the Glory Orc who was shouting a warning at the front.

-The siege against the ‘Golden Castle’ has begun!

The Golden Castle’s full-scale counterattack began.

“It’s the enemy!”

“Kweek, attack!”

Sparkling spears and swords flew quickly towards Se-un.

The number of orcs guarding the gate was ten. Se-un had just taken down one, so nine weapons flew at him simultaneously.

Whether they had properly learned formation or not, all those attacks came without interfering with each other’s paths, blocking all blind spots.

However, Se-un was not alone.

-Player Kang Han-cheol uses ‘Commencement of War.’

Kugugugu!

“Kweek!”

A sudden tremor in the ground. Because of that, the orcs’ posture collapsed, and gaps appeared between the spears and swords coming towards Se-un.

In that gap.

-Player Yoo Seo-ah uses ‘Tarantula’s Second Leg.’

Yoo Seo-ah, who had jumped up by stepping on Kang Han-cheol’s back, fell down.

Swish, swish, swish!

“Keuk!”

A festival of blood unfolded as Yoo Seo-ah landed.

Her twin swords weren’t strong enough to pierce the orcs’ armor, but surprisingly, the rapidly wielded swords accurately cut through the gaps in the orcs’ armor.

Armpits, neck, hamstrings, etc. Every time a red wind passed through the very small gaps that were not protected by armor, green blood spurted out.

“Se-un!”

“I’m counting on you.”

Taking advantage of that gap, Se-un was able to confidently reach the walls of the Golden Castle.

Even though ten of their comrades were being defeated right in front of them, the walls didn’t even think about budging.

However.

“How dare you attack our Golden Castle!”

“Kweek! Do you think a human can even take one step into the Golden Castle!”

“We’ll turn you into a hedgehog before you even touch the gate!”

“Fire!”

Dozens, hundreds of arrows flew from the walls.

The sharp arrowheads were all shining gold, and all of them were imbued with the power of the Golden Castle, ‘Ignores 30% of the enemy’s defense.’

Tudududuk!

Just before they pierced Se-un’s body, a thin wall appeared in the air.

Wide Shield.

It was the wide barrier that Se-un had used before to block the goblin’s poison needles.

Clang, clang!

However, this Wide Shield did not completely block the arrows like the goblin’s poison needles before.

The golden arrows pierced through, and cracks appeared, quickly showing a precarious appearance.

Even in that situation, Se-un didn’t panic and took out a huge axe.

One of the two axes he obtained after defeating Krak Katlak, the leader of the Starving Ogres. It was Krak’s Great Axe.

As an item obtained after defeating a hidden boss monster, it was a powerful weapon, but.

“Kweek! Does a mere human think he can destroy the gate of the Golden Castle with just an axe, not a siege weapon!”

It was impossible to destroy the gate.

Even if it wasn’t the Golden Castle, it was impossible for individuals to destroy the gate by wielding weapons.

But.

-The Vault of Greed has been opened.

[ Giant’s Axe, Pan Gu ]

– The axe of the giant Pan Gu, known to have split chaos and divided heaven and earth into two.

It would be a different story if it wasn’t an ordinary axe, but a god’s axe.

Swish.

Kukwakwakwakwang!!!

The moment Se-un swung the axe, a sharp cutting sound and an explosion that seemed to shatter the world were heard.

The sound was so loud that the orcs on the walls had to stop firing and cover their ears all at once.

Golden dust mixed with gold powder spread around, and the moment that dust cleared.

“Kweek! T, the gate!”

Kugung!!

The gate of the Golden Castle was torn in half and collapsed, and the orcs inside, fully armed, were staring at Se-un with dumbfounded expressions.
