Chapter 157: Intermediate Devil Level In other words, what needs to be solved is the lives of the more than 300 medium-sized demons that are still guarding the rear! Shen Mu could certainly see that the 300-plus medium-level devils, which were obviously taller than the low-level devils around them, were quite conspicuous. It can also be understood that those 300 or so demons are obviously the commander's medium-level demons, and they are the key to his complete defeat of these hell demons. Before, he let go of more than 100 medium-sized devils, and then these hell devils came back again, and there were even more than 100 medium-sized devils, and now the number has increased to more than 300. It was obvious that he wanted to make a comeback and completely break down his city wall once again! Shen Mu naturally paid considerable attention to these demons. Of course, it was not just Bestur who was outside, he was also impressed by the more than 300 medium-sized devils, and he understood that the main opponents he should deal with at this time were these medium-sized devils! That was why he was fooled by these middle-level devils and led his Kugit grassland bandits to rush over when they began to approach the city wall. Taking advantage of his strong mobility, he blocked all these medium-level demons and the remaining low-level demons at the city wall.
By the way, use the bow and arrow in your hand to eliminate the low-level demons that are still climbing up the city wall. It solved the siege pressure on the city walls that was almost unbearable. So what's left is of course a little bit of food. These more than 300 medium-sized demons obviously look more powerful. "Focus on those demons." Bestur stretched out his hand, pointed at the 300-odd medium-sized devils that were about two meters tall and wearing complete leather armor, and loudly ordered the surrounding Kugit grassland bandits and grassland bandit elites: "I need you to keep all those demons here! Let them know what kind of punishment they should receive for daring to offend Lord Shen Mu's dignity!" "understand!" Around him, the Kugit grassland bandits and grassland bandit elites all responded loudly. If it were other grassland bandits, they might just laugh it off, or some of them would continue to shoot the feather arrows in their quivers with the nomadic bows in their hands out of boredom. It was just a matter of completing a task, and I didn't really take Bestul's words to heart. These Kugit people are all nomads, and it must be said that they are accustomed to a lax habit. But as soon as Shen Mu's name was mentioned, we knew that the dignity of this legendary figure Shen Mu was challenged by these devils from hell. Then these Kugit nomads who value Shen Mu's name more than their own lives will of course be filled with righteous indignation and be very angry. Of course, I will treat this matter as a deep-rooted hatred and take revenge! Then these Kugit grassland bandits immediately shook the reins, allowing the grassland horses under their crotch to carry them and rush out quickly. At the same time, the nomadic bow in his hand was once again loaded with feather arrows and barbed arrows. Once again, a rain of arrows poured down on those devils from hell. Of course, the main targets of these Kugit grassland bandits are those medium-sized devils who are obviously taller and bigger. Those 300+ medium-sized devils!
'Swish, swish, swish, swish!' Another heavy rain fell. However, this time, the hell devils that were targeted and shot were the middle-level devils that were originally sitting in the rear, surrounded and protected by inferior and low-level devils. These medium-sized demons were caught off guard, and the bodies of a dozen or so medium-sized demons on the outermost edge were suddenly pierced by seven or eight feather arrows. However, there was not much smile on Bestur's face regarding this achievement. Including the Kugit grassland bandits, the hideous smiles on their faces gradually subsided. Even though they saw more than 500 of them concentrating their firepower and covering the devil's formation with a rain of arrows, they also saw hundreds of devils falling. But they also watched helplessly as the hell devils that fell were just some remaining inferior devils and a large number of low-level devils. As for the medium-sized devils that were protected by Tuan Tuan, only a few of them fell. Or to be more precise. Those medium-sized demons who were protected in a circle did not actually suffer much substantial damage from the arrows shot by the nomadic bows of the Kugit grassland bandits. This means that their rain of arrows this time was completely in vain and had no effect at all! So how could these Kugit grassland bandits, who were grinning with complacency just now, and the Kugit grassland bandit elites, be happy? This is simply an insult to them. "There's something wrong with the leather armor those mid-level devils are wearing." At this time, Shen Mu had a very clear view of the cost, especially when he looked at the leather armor with flashing dark red runes worn by those tall and medium-sized devils, and his brows were tightly furrowed. "That's true. I also clearly saw that the arrows shot by the Kugits did not seem to penetrate the leather armor worn by the hell demons." Resarit also nodded at this time. He stood with one foot on the battlement of the city gate, half of his body moving back and forth, looking at the middle-level devils seriously, and loudly commanding the low-level devils around him to form a denser formation to protect themselves. His expression was extremely serious: "It looks like the leather armor these hell demons are wearing is very unusual." The beginning and the end are unusual for him, Resarit, who has been in the Kingdom of Swadia for a long time and is almost becoming a native noble of the Kingdom of Swadia. The armor these medium-sized demons wear looks like leather, but in fact its actual protective capabilities are almost comparable to plate armor. That’s right, it’s the plate armor that can be regarded as the trump card of the Kingdom of Swadia. The entire body is forged from steel, and then the most skilled craftsmen hammer it into an arc-shaped armor bit by bit. It is quite expensive and quite time-consuming. But the defensive effect is also quite powerful. Generally speaking, only the most sophisticated Swadian knights are equipped with these plates, and then they are only sleeveless plates. Only the high-ranking nobles of the Kingdom of Swadia, such as the king and marshal, who number less than 10, are equipped with a full set of plate armor. So much so that even he, Resarit, the instructor who was now famous in the Kingdom of Swadia, was only wearing heavy chain mail. In fact, including Fatis, the eldest son of a high-ranking noble family, only wore heavy chain mail and could not wear plate armor.
This not only shows how expensive plate armor is, but also how difficult it is to make. But if you think about it, you can understand that the craftsmanship of making plate armor in the Calradia continent can only be achieved by the high-level craftsmen of the Kingdom of Swadia. And just talking about high-level craftsmen, how many are there in the entire continent of Calradia? Even fewer in number than knights. But back to the point, what Resarit saw now was the special leather armor worn by these medium-sized demons, which really had the same effect as the sleeveless plate armor worn by the knights. Not only can it easily block the shooting of feather arrows or barbed arrows. Even feather arrows or barbed arrows shot at certain angles would actually bounce away, as if the surface of the leather armor had a special force that could bounce back the arrows. "Perhaps the leather armor on those medium-level devils can really rebound the arrows." This thought suddenly popped up in Shen Mu's mind at this moment. His face looked somewhat solemn. Because when he saw those sticks flying out, this concept immediately appeared in his mind. After all, this is a devil from the magical world, so the leather armor he wears must be extraordinary. Looking at the low-level devils whose casualties were close to 2000 and the inferior devils whose number was even greater and approaching 5000. However, the total number of medium-level demons is only about 300. You can understand that these medium-level devils are definitely very powerful beings, and these low-level and inferior devils must protect them even at the cost of their lives, or in other words, they are forcibly ordered to protect their commanders. "But even if it's a medium-level devil, it will die anyway. As long as it dies, it doesn't matter." Lesarit spat to the side. There was a ferocious look on his face. Especially when looking at the knight's sword in his hand, which was already stained with a lot of dark red blood but still emitted a bright white light. There was also some confidence in Resarit's tone: "As long as we rush forward, even medium-sized demons will die. After all, we have you, Lord Shen Mu, and the Holy Tree Knights from the Holy Tree Knights. Even if we pile them up, we can kill those hell demons!" Now, Resarit has completely erased the fear of the Hell Devil, the mythical creature that he once knew in his mind. After all, in myths and legends, the devils in hell are extremely frightening, bewitching, and terrifying creatures that can easily kill the most powerful humans. How is it possible that these poor creatures could be easily dealt with by him, these Swadian light infantry and some peasants from Vikria? This is obviously impossible. Even if it were possible, he had already killed so many demons from hell. It is impossible for Resarit to treat these hellish demons as some horrible mythical creatures now. They are just some creatures that are no different from normal humans. It just looks weird and scary. But the bows and arrows in their hands can still kill them, the crossbows in their hands can still pierce them, the swords, spears and axes in their hands can also kill them. They can be killed just the same, it's not that scary. So it can be said that Resarit simply sneered at these devils from hell.
Even when he saw that the leather armor worn by those medium-sized demons could bounce back and block arrows, he did not feel much fear in his heart and still regarded them as knights wearing sleeveless plate armor. There were still no war horses, just knights walking on their own legs, wearing sleeveless plate armor. If that's the case, then there's no need to think too much about it. Just let the real knights charge forward and completely defeat these infantrymen. You have to know that the feeling that those 60 Holy Tree Knights gave to Resarit was no less than that of real Swadian Knights. Of course, this feeling was also due to the fact that he often mingled in the Kingdom of Swadia and considered himself a Swadian. In terms of real feeling, Resarit has also realized that the charging skills and close combat skills of the Holy Tree Knights are indeed stronger than those of the Swadian Knights, but their tactical coordination of group charge is slightly worse than that of the Swadian Knights. But under the leadership of Airen, a Vikian, there were 100 genuine Swadian heavy cavalry on the edge of the south wall. If combined with the 60 Holy Tree Knights and 50 Holy Tree Cavalry, plus these 100 Swadian heavy cavalry. Just charge forward. Even the 300 medium-level demons all have defensive equipment comparable to that of the Swadian knights. Possesses the same fighting ability as the Nord Royal Guards. The result is the same. They would definitely be easily defeated by these heavy cavalry and would not be able to resist at all. After all, in Resarit's impression, even the Nord Royal Guards with the strongest offensive capabilities, those terrifying and strongest infantrymen who were like human killing machines, faced the heavy cavalry corps composed of the knights and heavy cavalry of the Swadian Kingdom on the plains. They will be easily slaughtered. That's right, even the Nord Royal Guards, the strongest offensive infantry in all of Calradia, could not resist the heavy cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia on the plains. Not to mention that these were mid-level devils who were definitely not as good as the Nord Royal Guards in his opinion. You have to know that those Nord royal guards can not only throw heavy throwing axes, but their full body equipment is also extremely luxurious and armed to the teeth. They also have heavy round shields and heavy armor-piercing axes, which give them terrifying combat power. In terms of fighting skills, one person can kill the soldiers of the Swadian Kingdom, or the Rhodok soldiers of the Rhodok Kingdom who are like human walls holding heavy broad shields, without much effort. It can be said that even the Nord Royal Guards could not withstand the mass charge of the heavy cavalry, let alone these medium-level devils. They would definitely be crushed to death by the charging group formed by these 200 heavy cavalrymen. There will be no second outcome. "Lord Shen Mu, that's what I think, and I'm quite confident that I can succeed." At this time, Resarit also gave Shen Mu a serious suggestion, hoping that Ailen and those heavy cavalrymen would form a group charge heavy cavalry unit to launch a fierce and devastating charge against those medium-sized demons. End this battle once and for all! "Yeah." Shen Mu nodded at this time: "That's it." Shen Mu agreed with Resarit's proposal because he also planned to end the battle. Especially when those hell demons failed to attack the city wall and began to retreat back to the Sujia Village site again.
Shen Mu knew in his heart that he must never let these devils from hell back into the subway tunnel again. Especially let’s look at the current time period first. Around midnight or so. I estimate it should be around two or three in the morning. This means that the devils from hell in the subway tunnels only have one last chance to launch another attack. If this were not the case, then the sky would turn from darkness to daylight at 6:00 AM. When the morning sun rises, no matter it is the rules of the undead, the rules of hell, or even the rules of the abyss, everything except the rules of the blue star and the remaining rules of the spiritual world that are integrated into the rules of the blue star will be completely expelled from the blue star world. At that time, these hell demons who remain in the Blue Star world will definitely suffer severe damage. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for these cunning devils from hell to launch an attack when daybreak is approaching. According to this conclusion, if the devils from hell retreat this time, they will definitely launch a more brutal battle. And the last attack was also the craziest and most hysterical one. Shen Mu guessed that by then it would not just be these low-level and inferior demons attacking the city walls. Those medium-level demons who have been watching the battle and carefully supervising the battle may also try their best to attack his city walls. That's when it's time to really fight for your life. Shen Mu had this psychological expectation. That was why he agreed with Resarit's suggestion to wipe out those 300-plus medium-sized demons in this battle. After all, in the first wave of attack that occurred just after dark, there were only 1 medium-sized demons supervising the battle. Now there are more than 300 medium-sized devils. Although these medium-sized devils are still supervising the battle, when the next third wave of general attack is launched, Shen Mu cannot guarantee whether these 3 medium-sized devils will still be there supervising the battle, and whether they will actually attack his city wall. And looking at the climax of the second wave of attack just now, those low-level demons had already attacked his city wall. If it weren't for the Kugit grassland bandits who used bows and arrows to stop those low-level demons. I'm afraid this side of the city wall is about to be lost, and we're about to engage in a brutal battle for the city wall. At that time, we would be in absolute danger since we are at a disadvantage in terms of infantry. So Shen Mu didn't dare to gamble. Just a low-level devil was about to attack his city wall. If it were those medium-sized devils wearing special leather armor, it would be a question whether he could defend his city walls at that time. Even if they retreated to the inner city wall at that time, they would still need some Western Han soldiers to delay the enemy's attack, and they would need to stay behind to serve as a suicide squad willing to die. All the mounted and swordsman soldiers Shen Mu has now will be his future elite troops, and he doesn't want to take the risk. "Go and inform Aileyen." Shen Mu said at this time: "Also send someone to inform Bestul to implement this plan and keep all those medium-level demons here. Don't let them go back into the subway tunnel."
"Understood." At this time, Resarit also had a sinister smile on his face: "Please let me join in the next heavy cavalry charge." Shen Mu glanced at him and saw the confidence on the face of this Swadian instructor, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you, Aileyen, and Bestur must all pay attention to your own safety." These are all his most important military talents. It can be said that it is the management within NIO’s territory. Absolutely no losses are allowed. "clear." Resarit nodded, then turned and walked quickly towards the city wall. After riding his Swadian warhorse, he went around through the east city gate and joined the heavy cavalry group commanded by Airen. Resarit himself is a general dressed as a standard Swadian heavy cavalry. If he could wear sleeveless plate armor, he would be a typical Swadian knight. After all, in terms of personal combat skills, he is no less than those knights. After all, he was born in an aristocratic family and had been taught various fighting skills since childhood. Therefore, he is much stronger than those knights who were upgraded from the Swadian heavy cavalry. In essence, Resarit, Fatis, Airen and even Bestul are all noble troops. They are two completely different concepts from ordinary civilian soldiers. "But I have to prepare too." At this time, Shen Mu looked at the dense formation of hell devils who were preparing to retreat because of the failed attack, and his expression became a little solemn. In his eyes, there were both demons and low-level demons numbering about five or six hundred. Three or four hundred inferior devils. Plus those 300 medium-sized devils who didn't suffer many losses. There are also 10 square formations of a hundred people each. Therefore, it still has the ability to fight back. Moreover, when retreating, these giant demons were no longer attracted by the Kugit grassland bandits on the edge, and they were no longer foolish enough to just disperse their formation and chase after them. Instead, they gathered into a dense formation and began to retreat step by step. It was obvious that they had learned their lesson after suffering the consequences of being strangled when they dispersed their formation before. But it is precisely because of this that Shen Mu feels a little heavy in his heart. And looking at the heavily armored troops that have slowly appeared on the battlefield. But there are only more than 200 people. Still slowly clenched his hands. Thoughts have also communicated with the system again, activating their own skills: "Swarm Harassment!"
They summoned out directly. Killer bees from the spirit world, each as big as a dwarf child, appeared outside the city wall with a huge buzzing sound from the vibration of their wings. There are as many as 60 of them. And they are all these giant killer bees from the spiritual world. Then he raised his tail like a dagger and began to rush towards the direction of those devils from hell. It was as if assassins suddenly appeared from the sky, ready to strangle those devils from hell. What's more, the demons from hell who were originally retreating step by step had not expected such a situation to occur. The demons from hell looked at the giant killer bees from the spiritual world in horror, and each of them looked a little at a loss. Because within their racial perception, they actually detected that the bodies of these spiritual killer bees actually contained traces of the breath of the abyss! (End of this chapter)
