Chapter 159 The Maid of the Undead Faction [Ding! Congratulations! You have repelled the first wave of attacks from the Hell Demons! Your post-battle rewards will be increased by +2%. ] [You have received the stage reward - 20000 dinars. ] [Tip: Idle time on the battlefield does not count as entering combat mode, so you can upgrade your soldiers. ] [Hint: You have soldiers that can be upgraded. ] Then, when the Holy Tree Knights and the Swadian Heavy Cavalry began their two-pronged charge, the three hundred-man phalanxes composed of all the medium-level devils immediately collapsed. In other words, they had been completely defeated by the attacks from both sides. It was like a roaring flood. After everything is destroyed. All that was left was the mess and corpses on the battlefield.
At this time, the Holy Tree Horses and Swadian War Horses were casually trampling on the corpses of the medium-sized demons lying on the ground. Whether they were members of the Holy Tree Knights or the Swadian heavy cavalrymen riding on horseback, they all held their lances in their backhands and thrust them down leisurely. With the slight sound of 'puff'. He stabbed the spear in his hand directly into the bodies of the medium-sized demons lying on the ground. It even pierced accurately into the necks of these devils from hell. As the spear twisted. A big hole was poked in the necks of these devils from hell, and some even had their spines pierced and broken. It looked like he was determined to kill them all even if it was just a finishing blow! Shen Mu, who was standing on the city gate, was very satisfied with this. Looking at the Kugit grassland bandits and grassland bandit elites around him, they were still using their spears, nomadic bows, and nomadic scimitars to kill the low-level devils who were fleeing after being defeated. The corners of Shen Mu's mouth curled up slightly. The situation is now under control. Then, just leave it to these generals to handle. I should deal with more important things. After all, in this seemingly post-war free time of cleaning up the battlefield, we really can’t waste time. Every minute and every second is extremely important! God knows when the third wave of attacks will begin. Of course Shen Mu didn't dare to waste it! "Open the upgradeable soldier interface." Shen Mu's thought communication system.
Immediately, a new dialog box refreshed on his retina. [Currently upgradeable soldiers:] [① Grassland Bandits x 115, each can be upgraded to 'Grassland Bandit Elite (Level 100 Archer Cavalry)' by consuming 11500 dinars.] [② 100 Swadian Light Infantrymen, each can be upgraded to 'Swadian Infantry (Level 100 Heavy Infantry)/Swadian Heavy Cavalry (Level 10000 Heavy Cavalry)' at a cost of dinars.] [③ 1000 new Vikia soldiers, each can be upgraded to 'Vikia Light Infantry (Tier 20 Infantry)' at a cost of 20000 dinars.] [④Holy Tree Cavalry x 50, each person can be upgraded to 'Holy Tree Knight (Level 500 Mithril Heavy Cavalry)' at a cost of 25000 dinars] "..." Even when Shen Mu looked at the contents of the dialog box that appeared on his retina, his expression became slightly subtle. This cannot but be subtle. Because at this time he found that the total dinar cost of all his upgradeable soldiers had reached 66500 dinars. And now Shen Mu’s dinar balance is exactly 65057 dinars. There is still a shortfall of 1500 dinars. "I'm really speechless." Shen Mu pursed his lips at this time, and the whole person was a little helpless, but he still communicated with the system with his mind and confirmed the Mounted Blade soldiers he was about to upgrade: "Upgrade 100 Prairie Bandits, 100 Swadian Light Infantry, 1000 Vikia Recruits, and 50 Holy Tree Cavalry." In other words, Shen Mu was supposed to upgrade 115 grassland bandits, but only upgraded 100 of them. The cost of upgrading these 15 grassland bandits is exactly 1500 dinars. It's a direct hedge. 'Om! ' Following Shen Mu's confirmation, the white data stream from between his eyebrows surged out again. It was as if it had turned into a stream of data links that were wrapped around the Mount and Blade soldiers that were supposed to be upgraded, and turned into light shields like eggshells. Then, within a dozen seconds, these Mount and Blade soldiers began to evolve from the physical to the soul level. Moreover, these Mount and Blade soldiers were directly transferred to the Mount and Blade world, and after more than ten years of training and actual combat experience, they were finally promoted to a new type of soldier. That is, those grassland bandit elites. Swadian heavy cavalry. Vaegir Light Infantry. And the last 50 Holy Tree Cavalry upgraded to Holy Tree Knights! At this time, Shen Mu looked at these soldiers who had completed their promotions and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Because he knew that this was the new Mount and Blade soldier who had been promoted and transformed through fighting and was like a reborn soldier. From combat power to combat experience to fighting skills, all of them are reborn to become stronger. "It's a pity that those Vikia archers haven't been upgraded. Perhaps it's because they haven't experienced enough battles." Shen Mu also had some regret in his eyes at this time. After all, if the Vikia archer shoots, he will be a fifth-level Vikia sharpshooter, who can shoot far and accurately, and can also shoot continuously to form a continuous rain of arrows. Arguably the top long-range shooter.
But if you think about it, you can understand that if these Vikia archers want to upgrade from the fourth level to the fifth level Vikia sharpshooters, then they will definitely need a lot of combat experience. After all, from level one to level four, you just need to upgrade slowly step by step. But from level 4 to level 5, that is a qualitative upgrade. According to Shen Mu's estimation, the combat experience required to advance from level 4 to level 5 would be comparable to that required to advance from level to level . This also explains why the fifth-level troops are absolute ace troops. They are absolute ace troops that can bring combat advantages as long as they appear on the battlefield. The combat effectiveness is extremely powerful. This is why there was a look of pity in Shen Mu's eyes. He knew very well that if there were more Vikia archers now, then those hell demons would have to face an even more deadly rain of arrows if they wanted to attack again. The gap between the fifth-tier ace troops and the fourth-tier elite troops is quite huge. The biggest example is the Holy Tree Knights who evolved from the Holy Tree Cavalry. At this time, the only members of the Holy Tree Knights in this world, besides the 110 Holy Tree Knights, are the remaining 100 Holy Tree Rangers. Ordinary first-level holy tree rangers and the top-level fifth-level holy tree knights. Of course there is no comparison between the two arms. Comparing the Holy Tree Cavalry just now with the Holy Tree Knights now, you can easily see the gap between the two. Not only were the Holy Tree Knights, but both they and their horses were equipped with chain plate armor, and all of them were magical equipment mixed with mithril. Therefore, the gap in absolute combat effectiveness was also widened. Especially when it comes to evil. For example now. When slaughtering those hell demons, the new Holy Tree Knights can effectively and fatally kill those hell demons. On the contrary, the Holy Tree Cavalry needed more skills and more luck to kill a Hell Devil. This was most evident during the pincer attack just now. Those Holy Tree Knights relied on their magical equipment to have a good killing effect on those medium-sized demons. Compared to the Swadian heavy cavalry chasing from behind. The damage these Holy Tree Knights can inflict on the Hell Demons is basically fatal as long as it hits their vital parts. Although this is also due to the advantages of magic equipment, after all, things like mithril have a natural bonus to damage against evil, but it is also due to the combat experience and skills that these Holy Tree Knights have gained after countless battles to reach their current peak position. “Everything is moving in a better direction now.” Shen Mu also had a very satisfied look on his face at this time. He looked at the Holy Tree Knights who had been reborn with a smile, and he felt a little more relaxed. After all, his strength has improved significantly.
Look at the 100 newly appeared Swadian heavy cavalry and the 100 grassland bandit elites next to them. They all look quite capable and strong. The corners of Shen Mu's mouth became more and more upturned. He was really happy. The fourth-level Swadian heavy cavalry, both the men and the horses, were equipped with heavy chain mail, so there was no need to say much about their charging combat effectiveness. These are Shen Mu’s confidences. "It looks like it's already 3 ." Shen Mu estimated the time and found that it was already 3:00 in the morning. It would be dawn in about three hours. But the current time period also has a more obscure name. darkness before dawn. The darkest hour before dawn. "Moreover, the rules of the hellish demons around here have not dissipated, which means that the hellish demons have not given up the idea of continuing to attack me." At this time, Shen Mu looked around and saw several huge runes formed by the rules of hell that were still floating in the sky. His eyes narrowed slightly. He could vaguely sense the malice directed towards him within the rules of hell. Or rather, the malice that comes from the rules of hell towards any non-hell creature. "Huh? Wait?" But when Shen Mu looked up at those dark red runes, a strange look appeared on his face. Because at this moment he suddenly saw that the dark red runes had dimmed. It's like a light bulb that has lost its power. It slowly began to flicker with bright or dim luster, and then slowly faded away completely. Finally, the dark red light began to flicker, and gradually shrank back into the tunnel of Sujia Village station. It was obvious that the hell rules that extended from the Sujia Village subway station by two people lost the additional power to support it in eroding the Blue Star world and began to retreat back along the path they came from. Or it could be said that the rules of hell have already admitted defeat tonight and have no intention of continuing to erode this area of the Blue Star world at 3 . Then the place was returned to the complete darkness and the gray mist that filled the air as the darkness appeared. The rules of the dead appeared in this area again. "Something's wrong! We need to get back to the castle!" At this time, Ailen, who had experienced the darkness of the undead rules in advance, clearly noticed that as the dark red light faded, the darkness and gray fog around him filled up again.
Moreover, according to the special situation that occurred before when darkness and gray fog spread, a considerable number of undead monsters appeared. Airen immediately called upon the surrounding Holy Tree Knights, the Swadian heavy cavalry led by Resarit, and the Kugit grassland bandits led by Bestur, and rushed towards the city gate of Xinriwadin. At this time, darkness had just fallen, and the gray fog had not yet completely spread. There was still a dark red light flashing from time to time, as if the remaining hell rules were still repelling those undead rules. They took this opportunity and rushed into the gate of Xinriwadin. Returning to the outer wall of the new Rivadin where the bonfire had been lit and which was protected and shrouded by the rules of Mount and Blade. He counted the number of Mount and Blade soldiers he led. After confirming there were no casualties. Aileyen, Resarit and Bestur then came to Shen Mu who was standing on the top of the outer city gate. "Lord Shen Mu." The three of them bowed respectfully to Shen Mu. "Ah, very good." Shen Mu nodded at this time, and praised the three of them with satisfaction: "I saw you fighting bravely, very good." The previous battle was indeed quite good. The three of them fought bravely and indeed fought back the two waves of attacks from the devils from hell. And no Vikians, no Kugits, and no members of the Holy Tree Knights suffered casualties. It is indeed quite good. "Thank you for your compliment, Master Shen Mu." The three of them also bowed their heads humbly and expressed their gratitude again. However, Shen Mu turned around at this time and looked at the darkness and gray fog that appeared outside again and enveloped the entire world. His brows furrowed slightly. "My Lord, is this the so-called rule of the dead spirits that has taken over this Blue Star world again?" Resarit asked at this time. Of course, it also represents the question raised by Bestur next to him. When they arrived, it was just as it was getting dark, and they witnessed the so-called rules of the undead. However, I have never actually seen the undead monsters that appear in the undead rules. Then the rules of hell and the devils of hell came. Talk about it. Now these two generals from the Mount and Blade world are really curious about the undead monsters under the rules of the dead. "Well, now is the night dominated by the rules of the dead." Shen Mu nodded.
He also briefly explained to the two generals who had just arrived and joined him what the undead rules were and what undead monsters were. This made Resarit and Bestur look surprised and eager to try. Especially listening to Shen Mu’s explanation. The two generals of the evil camp couldn't help but put their hands on the hilts of their knight's swords and the hilts of their nomadic scimitars. Obviously, after hearing Shen Mu's explanation, they all wanted to rush out and use their own fighting power to test the quality of those undead monsters! Especially when the rules of hell dissipated and the dark red light disappeared, it meant that the devils from hell no longer dared to continue their attack. This made the generals of the two evil camps feel a little regretful. Especially the fighting spirit that made me feel hot all over, but now I have no way to release it. I even feel like I want to vent. "Okay, your most important task now is to comfort the soldiers after the battle and let them rest first." Shen Mu saw that these two people did not want to stay here and wanted to take the troops out to cause trouble. The corners of my eyes couldn't help but twitch slightly. The generals of the evil camp are like this, they want to stir up trouble as soon as they have free time and are quite fanatical about fighting. Moreover, they are extremely enthusiastic about the wealth, power and reputation they will gain after the battle. Compared to the generals of the good camp who prefer to develop steadily step by step, these generals of the evil camp are really too energetic. "We understand." Of course, Shen Mu had already spoken, and the two generals of the evil camp could only bow their heads in obedience. Then after another salute, he turned around and followed Shen Mu's orders to appease his Kugit grassland bandits and Swadian heavy cavalry, and asked them to simply rest in the outer castle area. The enemy has been dealt with. Now the city gates have been closed again. The Vikia light infantry on the city walls have also begun to patrol or stand guard again, holding torches. A good garrison defense system has been formed. The city walls were put under strict supervision. "Aileen." Shen Mu turned his head and looked at Aileien, the warrior and knight with the highest military power in the good camp: "I will leave this side of the city wall to you. In the second half of the night, you must continue to work hard and make sure nothing happens to this side of the city wall." "Please rest assured, Lord Shen Mu, I will take good care of this city wall!" Airen nodded immediately. "Yeah." Shen Mu nodded with satisfaction when he heard Ailen say this. Then he turned around and returned to the inner level of the castle. In the main building of the castle on the hill. "call."
Shen Mu let out a breath. At this time, he was sitting in his main seat in the castle, looking at the Swadian light infantry who followed in as guards. Shen Mu waved his hand, signaling them to stand still and to stop making any more messy footsteps. He needs some quiet time now. So the Swadian light infantry stood obediently on both sides. Even if someone walked, they would walk very quietly and try not to make any noise. A look of full discipline. And just outside, 20 Holy Tree Knights also walked over, also moving very quietly and without making any sound. Then he stood not far from Shen Mu, holding a spear in his hand and the knight's sword at his waist, protecting Shen Mu as a personal guard. This is also the responsibility of these Holy Tree Knights who have spontaneously organized themselves. Shen Mu was very satisfied with this. Now he really wants to be quiet for a while. There is no way. After just experiencing a bloody battle, Shen Mu has not yet come out of that state of fighting. It's that state of being nervous and excited, and unable to calm down in a short period of time due to the secretion of adrenaline. Shen Mu understood this situation. Therefore, in the quiet moments, he looked at the dark night outside, sitting on the lord's seat, and calmly closed his eyes. He even leaned his back against the cold chair, slowly relaxed, and began to doze off. It’s restorative. Analyze it in your mind at the same time. "Logically there should be a third wave of attack, but the Hell Devils didn't launch it." Shen Mu thought in his heart: "Could it be because the number of Hell Devils I killed this time was too large, causing those Hell Devils to feel fear?" Think about how I killed off two waves of hellish demons in a row. It seemed as if the enemy was almost completely annihilated. The corners of Shen Mu's mouth also curled up slightly. I have to say, this is the absolute combat power that these Mount and Blade soldiers of my own can possess. But the corners of his mouth that had just been raised were now pursed again. "But after tomorrow's day, I might have to face more attacks from demons." Shen Mu thought about the coming night. That’s right, tonight, I did fight off wave after wave of enemy attacks. But what about the rest of the night? There are no telling how many devils from hell there are in the subway tunnels and on the streets of Angang.
It really made Shen Mu feel heavy inside. "I didn't expect that there would be so many hell demons in the suburbs of Long City." Shen Mu turned his head and looked outside the narrow ventilation window. The night was dark. His face also became more solemn: "Especially the north bank of the Xiaolong River, I really don't know how those hellish demons have eroded the streets of Angang." He was quite unfamiliar with the streets of Gangang. It can even be said that because of the obstruction of Xiaolong River, even the current Shen Mu occupies Balihe Street in Longcheng City. There is still nothing we can do about the Angang Street on the north shore. After all, even if Shen Mu had a complete castle to place now, he would not dare to go to the unfamiliar Angang street to place it. God knows what the situation is like over there. Even if it was placed, it would be a waste of an opportunity to shoot the city. It has a crucial impact on your future development. of course. The problem now is that there are no extra villages or castle towns to expand and place. The previous village has merged with the two villages of New Rivadin and become the current Vikia Castle. So since there are no extra villages, towns or castles, what he is thinking about now is just wishful thinking and has no practical use. It would be better to study how to develop the castle of New Riwadin next, and then continue to defend against the invasions of hell demons that may appear in the future. But when Shen Mu was in deep thought, he suddenly felt a slight warmth inside the Holy Tree Suit on his body. It made him wake up. "Evil appears!?" Shen Mu's expression changed slightly, and he stood up directly from the main seat in the lord's hall. "There is a situation!" And right beside Shen Mu, the Holy Tree Knight who had come here to be on guard and was appointed as a personal guard took a few steps forward, protecting him inside, and shouted loudly at the main entrance of the Lord's Hall: "Come out!" Apparently they discovered something just outside the main entrance of the hall. At this time, Shen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly and saw that a gray shadow suddenly began to flicker at the main entrance, and along with gusts of gray mist and darkness, it spread in the form of a special vortex. And a figure with a female outline, covered in black gauze, also appeared there. Then he slowly opened his mouth: "It's Master Shen Mu. I'm sorry to bother you. Mistress Isabel sensed the breath of the rules of hell brought by the devils of hell, so she asked me to come and check what happened here." From the voice, it turned out that he knew Shen Mu.
Shen Mu also recognized the figure with a female outline that was covered in black gauze. The maid of the vampire faction in that large shopping complex! (End of this chapter)
