Zongman Infinity: Choose the Succubus entry at the beginning

Just as Goemon had said, the operation went very smoothly.

Su Ming glanced at the dungeon map that came with the "Cheater" entry.

They had already followed the river and left the border of Owari.

We will soon reach the shallows of the Nagara River in Mino.

At the current speed, we will be able to reach shore in about a quarter of an hour.

The only people who crossed the river on the raft were Su Ming and Goemon.

There were also several fat and strong men rowing the boats.

These are the "Kawabami-shu" led by Goemon.

Considering that this team was originally river pirates, it would be more appropriate to describe them as a "gang".

The Kawanami clan were once subordinates of Goemon's late father.

Now the young ninja Goemon is the leader.

They were originally warriors, but their lord's family was wiped out for various reasons.

As a result, they lost their status as samurai and became ronin.

The reason why Goemon wanted to join Su Ming.

He was impressed by Su Ming's "potential" and wanted to join him in the battles.

Maybe he could get the Kawanami people who followed him to resume their jobs as samurai.

Of course, Su Ming is now the general of the Oda family.

As a result, the status of Kawanamichi also rose.

This can be considered as the fulfillment of Goemon's wish.

[Campaign Mission: Viper's End]

Mission Description: The Mino Viper, Saito Dosan, has fallen into dire straits, but the Oda army, threatened by the Imagawa clan, is unable to act rashly. You have secured a chance to sneak in alone to rescue the Oda clan's daimyo, Oda Nobuna, with the help of Oda Nobunaga. If you can accomplish this feat, your fame will resound throughout the Warring States Period!

Mission Objective: "Saito Dosan" must not die and must be safely escorted to Kiyosu Castle.

[Mission Reward: Oda Nobuna's Favorability, 10 Merits]

[Failure Penalty: None 487]

(The merits awarded by future missions will be multiplied and will not be further explained)

……

When the raft reached the shallows, Su Ming casually closed the task list and thought to himself.

The difficulty of this task can be seen from the rewards and punishments.

An astonishing reward of 10 merits

It is twice the task of "food and grass first"!

There's no penalty even for failure.

Even the favorability will not decrease.

This means that it is within Nobuna's expectations.

She was not optimistic about the success of this operation.

Even if we fail, it is only natural.

"In other words...if it succeeds."

"I should be able to max out Oda Nobuna's favorability."

Nobuna's favorability has already reached 70.

If she could rescue her adoptive father from this desperate situation this time.

Reaching 100 is a sure thing.

By then… he won’t just be Nobuna’s pawn.

Including the two female generals under her command, Inuchiyo and Niwa Nagahide.

He can also conquer them all!

Thinking of this, Su Ming suddenly became full of motivation.

"My lord, we have discovered the battle between Dao San's army and Yi Long's army ahead."

Goemon, who went to explore the nearby area, soon brought back the news.

"Master Dao San's army is almost gone, only the headquarters has a few troops left."

"The Yilong army is numerous and powerful, roughly estimated to have at least a thousand men!"

With such an exaggerated disparity in military strength, it’s a wonder Saito Dosan has managed to hold on until now.

However, when Su Ming took a look at the dungeon map.

I immediately understood what was going on—

It was only seen among the logos representing the copy characters.

On Saito Dosan's battlefield, there is a team of "players"!

"It turns out that there are Infinite Game players helping to hold up the scene."

“No wonder it lasted this long.”

"But...it looks like they can't hold on any longer."

After thinking for a moment, Su Ming no longer wasted time and rushed straight towards Saito Dosan's main camp.

……

"The enemy is coming again! Request suppressive fire!"

"Suppress the devil! We've run out of bullets!"

"What a hassle... Run away now, I think there's no hope."

On the tense battlefield, three girls hid behind the barricades, each with a different expression.

"With so many enemies, even though they're all mobile merits...it's a headache without ammunition."

The black-haired girl with an indifferent expression took out the magazine and counted the few remaining bullets.

Next to her was Su Ming's old acquaintance - Jinmu Qianshu.

"I do have some ammunition left, but..."

Qianshu took out a few boxes of bullets with some embarrassment, looking troubled.

"These rounds are full-strength, and even if they hit non-vital areas, they can still be fatal."

"It's already this time, who cares so much?"

The blonde girl at the side glanced at Qianshu, then released the drone in her hand.

"I don't have much mechanical reserve left. If you really don't want to fight, then just abandon this old guy behind you and walk away."

"It's too late. Give me a box of bullets."

Black-haired Lycoris——

The girl named "Inoue Takina" quickly loaded the bullets into the magazine.

Then she suddenly stuck half of her body out from behind the cover.

He was about to shoot and repel the approaching Yilong Army soldiers.

However, the situation was not as she expected, the enemy had already arrived in large numbers.

Instead, a group of unidentified "friendly forces" appeared out of nowhere!

"Could it be reinforcements?"

Just when Takina was puzzled, the blonde hacker girl suddenly let out a light exclamation.

"A strange player appeared with these soldiers."

"Maybe he brought reinforcements."

As she spoke, she showed the terminal screen in her hand.

From a bird's-eye view, a handsome young man standing proudly is reflected.

He stopped at the edge of the battlefield, like a chess player in control of the overall situation, thinking about where to make his move.

Suddenly, the young man seemed to sense something and raised his head slightly.

"Oh no, we've been discovered—"

The hacker girl quickly input the emergency maneuver command.

Trying to get the drone out of the man's sight.

But the next moment, a gunshot was heard from a distance.

The only thing left on the terminal screen was the flashing words "No Signal".

"Surprisingly, he's so alert... and his strength is unfathomable."

"We'd better not mess with him."

The hacker girl felt a little sorry for her drone.

"But I'll remember this grudge!"

"Hey, Qianzhu, what's with that expression on your face?"

Takina also turned around and found that her partner had a complicated look on his face.

Surprised, angry, and a little bit incredulous.

If you listen carefully, you can hear her mumbling to herself with some resentment.

"How come I can meet him here?"

……

This sudden reinforcement naturally came from Su Ming.

He actually didn't do anything.

It's just the ashigaru chess pieces collected from the "Battle of Inaohara".

Summoned some of them out.

Ever since unlocking the "Dimensional Chessboard" skill.

He no longer has to collect the chess pieces himself.

As long as a chess piece appears, it will be automatically placed in the chessboard space.

Since the last battle, Su Ming has accumulated hundreds of "Ashigaru" chess pieces.

Most of them were killed by the Kawanami clan who were equipped with modern weapons.

"Only a little over a thousand soldiers? This is not enough to satisfy my appetite."

Looking at the steadily increasing number of chess pieces, Su Ming shrugged and looked at the old man in front of him.

"Master Dao San, I wonder if you have thought it through. Come with me and seek refuge in Owari."

When the summoned Ashigaru soldiers counterattack the enemy.

He has arrived at Saito Dosan's main camp and revealed his identity.

However, after hearing his proposal, the old man sitting upright in the chair showed no intention of getting up.

"Hehehe... Nobuna's confidant? I won't go with you."

Mino's viper laughed heartily, but his words were full of courage.

"I am old and my time is running out."
