The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178: Haul

Meanwhile, just as one guardian mecha accepted his fate; two people were facing their own existential crises.

Kael didn’t know what to fear or who to fear.

Was it right to fear one corrupted guardian tortoise?

Or was it proper to fear the very people who have come to save them?

But who could blame the father and son, who could only watch as several mechas practically toyed around the fearsome colossal beast that nearly killed them?

It was a scene straight out of one’s delusions as the mighty guardian was forced into taking Cannon shots.

Straight into the face!

And then, not even that long after, was a wailing cry from the same beast as the ice that kept it suspended in animation was cracked open by one weaponless mecha.

*CRACK!*

*BOOM!*

It was a majestic yet frightening sight.

Giant blocks of ice falling like an avalanche practically threatened to rush through what was earlier just a dry basin—including where the father and son duo were initially marooned.

The entire thing was a questionable move, one that a certain adjutant would have to avoid explaining in the report he would have to make about today’s mission.

But it worked, and that’s what was important.

Although the guardian beast would likely have a different opinion.

Because from the moment it was iced and until it was freed, all that the guardian beast could imagine was burying itself into the soil and never coming out.

Ever.

Just how did their method even work?

Especially against the corruption that had plagued the land, one that even a guardian couldn’t resist even with all its might?!

While it sounded like a terribly easy and suspicious ordeal, the premise of Luca’s strategy actually started making sense the moment they saw him execute it the first time around.

The issue with the current Purifier was its inability to concentrate on one particular target, as it actually left a trail of dust in its path.

But this giant tortoise would need to bathe in the dust if Luca had any hope of purifying the beast.

And how long and just how many shots would that take?

So, he thought of changing the delivery.

And if Guiding Pills worked like this, then maybe the cannon could also be used similarly.

Well, Luca hoped it was non-toxic.

As it didn’t help that D-29 couldn’t find any information about such a thing.

But that was because the Purifier was never meant to deal with colossal beasts. _{freeweɓnøvel.com}

However, who was alive enough to inform one determined Dungeon owner?

No one.

So, it was definitely not up for discussion.

And lo and behold, it got the chipmunk, one giant temporary pet.

So, what was there to complain about?

Well, nothing on the outside, as Xavier was inwardly thinking of how to compensate Kestrel Point for the sudden disappearance of their Guardian Tortoise.

But if anything, this was just a long-term rental, and he was pretty sure he could afford it.

Also, shouldn’t there be a discount for actually curing the once hopeless beast?

The Crown Prince felt like he had been infected by one little money grubber as he started thinking about things like this.

Thankfully, Luca was nice enough to preface this arrangement as a temporary plan.

One that was intended to safeguard the guardian from being re-contaminated as they tried to figure out how to deal with Kestrel Point.

Because it would obviously be impossible to deal with the entire planet with just Luca alone.

How long would he have to circle the entire planet just so he could clear everything out?

Therefore, they would have to think of a different way.

But that would have to wait until they get their trembling charges back into Planet Nova.

Initially, they were actually passed out charges. And for some reason, maybe their extreme hunger may have been trying to help them preserve their lives.

It was probably the combination of stress, hunger, and fatigue because the two who had been high-strung since earlier just fainted before they could even escape the clutches of these suspicious people.

And by the time they woke up, they would’ve survived several hours of being in the same battleship as these monstrous young men.

Fresh-faced young students who were now trying to think of ways to deal with people who had clearly seen everything.

Ollie was obviously panicking and wondered if there were ways to tinker with people’s minds.

Okay, fine.
