I am the one running the game

Chapter 916 You guys are just looking good, but you really don't have any strength at all

"It's still a bit far from the core location. It seems that it is not in the occupied area..." Lu Xingshi thought to himself.

Around him was a mixed team of one hundred Moonlight Violent Werewolves and steam soldiers with four types of steam animals transplanted into them.

It can be said that this is the strongest form of extraordinary soldier in the Orei Empire at present. Gato directly gathered one hundred of them for Lu Xingshi.

It can be said that he has done his best. These one hundred mixed extraordinary soldiers are no less than an army of ten thousand. However, these ten thousand people must be ordinary people. If they are replaced by extraordinary soldiers, the number will definitely drop significantly.

In this regard, Lu Xingshi actually understands the upper limit of the strength of extraordinary soldiers. It will definitely continue to develop in the future, and the upper limit of extraordinary soldiers will not stop here.

It’s just that compared to the Moonlight Werewolf series, the Steam Soldier will improve faster.

After all, they are native soldiers of the Orei Empire. As for the Moonlight Werewolves, the Empire is not very familiar with them, so the process of promoting their improvement is relatively slow.

"Sir, there is an unusual movement." After a steam soldier said this, all the remaining extraordinary soldiers became alert at the same time.

Lu Xingshi glanced at it and said, "Get rid of it."

As they were talking, the attack began.

However, it was not the location where he was, but a direct attack on the main camp of the Orei Empire.

It should be the coalition forces of various countries that took action. They paid a considerable price and only then sent some of their elite troops here.

It’s not that I’m worried about Cato. He has the magic mirror of the seven deadly sins in his hand, and with the troops in the camp, he will only be delayed at most, but not die.

On the contrary, he is the key point.

A group of people wearing pure white hooded clothes crowded around.

"Wizard Hunters?" Lu Xingshi couldn't see the faces of these people, but he could sense the unique fluctuations in their bodies. They were indeed targeting wizards.

The leader was also wearing a hooded coat, but it was golden and not covered tightly, revealing the appearance of a middle-aged man with a big beard.

He was none other than the legendary witch hunter Mark, who led the wizard hunters to kill without a word.

Mark was well prepared for the Moonlight Werewolves and Steam Soldiers he encountered, and then... he was beaten to the ground.

That's right, the legendary witch hunter and his army of wizard hunters were pinned to the ground and hammered, unable to withstand a single blow.

Lu Xingshi originally thought that they were just pretending to be so awesome, and even set up a scapegoat to attract fire as a cover-up. With such a big move, the person sent by the Holy Country might be the big boss.

In fact...he was overthinking it.

Both Mark and the wizard hunter team have indeed undergone rigorous training.

But the problem is that each of the one hundred mixed extraordinary soldiers protecting Lu Xingshi is a veteran who has fought on the battlefield.

These people from the Holy Country brag a lot, but they can never hide the fact that they are just a bunch of rookies who have never been on a real battlefield.

Fighting with the regular army, do they really think they are the incarnation of the protagonist and invincible?

In fact, apart from pretending to be cool, their strength is really weak, and their overall strength is not even as good as the most basic steam soldiers.

If the most basic steam soldier is a first-level troop, then the Moonlight Violent Werewolf protecting Lu Xingshi is a third-level troop, and the Type 4 steam animal steam soldier is a fourth-level troop.

Are a group of first-level gadgets qualified to charge into the formation?
The wizard hunter does have a special attack against wizards, but what's the use of that? Among the one hundred mixed extraordinary soldiers protecting Lu Xingshi, none of them is a wizard. Even if you use special attacks against wizards, you won't be able to use them.

"She looks pretty good, but her strength... It's not a question of whether she's good or not, but you don't think you can win just by being cool enough..."

Lu Xingshi looked at the legendary witch hunter Mark who was brought in front of him, his face full of horror.

It can only be said that as veterans of the battlefield, these one hundred extraordinary soldiers moved very quickly, and they almost wiped out the wizard hunter troops in no time.

There were only three or two people left alive, and Lu Xingshi told them to stay alive, otherwise they would have died long ago.

"You...you are not a wizard???" Mark finally recovered after being slapped twice. Relying on his position and title, he quickly realized that Lu Xingshi did not seem to be a wizard.

"Yes, I am not a wizard." Lu Xingshi said confidently.

The characteristics of traditional wizards are naturally a compulsory course for witch hunters. As a legendary witch hunter, Mark has passed the assessment of witch hunters, even if the word "legend" is just a job title.

So after coming into close contact with Lu Xingshi, I was able to see clearly the cause and effect.

"No, then how did you summon the meteorite? I need you to give me an explanation!" Mark's face turned serious and he immediately found Lu Xingshi's loophole.

Then I got slapped twice more.

"This is the secret of my Landon family, and it's none of your business." Lu Xingshi said lightly.

Judging from the look on his face just now, I thought Lu Xingshi was the villain. If Mark hadn't led people to launch a sneak attack, it would have been confirmed.

For witch hunters in the Holy Kingdom, any despicable means are legal as long as they can kill the wizard.

However, things are no longer the same as they were back then. "Then let me go. I am a legendary witch hunter from the Holy Kingdom. If you kill me, it will be against the covenant of all nations," Mark said again.

This time he was really scared. First, the wizard hunters he led were almost wiped out, and then after being slapped four times, his eyes immediately became clear.

The world outside is completely different from the Holy Kingdom, especially different from what is advertised.

In the propaganda of the Holy Kingdom, they are a powerful country that is superior to other countries. Even though they are only the size of a palm, they are the center of the entire world.

As a result, you fell into the hands of the enemy, and they don’t care about your so-called holy country at all.

Mark could only cite the treaties signed by various countries during the witch hunt.

"You said you are the legendary witch hunter of the Holy Country, so you are?" Lu Xingshi said jokingly, "Everyone knows that the real legendary witch hunter has not yet reached the Dragon Mountains."

"So you are just a group of bandits pretending to be from the Holy Kingdom."

At this moment, Mark's face turned pale, as if his little trick had cost him his life.

His plan was to let someone draw fire for him while he marched quickly to launch a surprise attack.

The plan was actually quite good, except that it failed to correctly recognize one's own strengths.

However, it would be useless even if they recognized them. It was already very difficult for the Holy Country to support these one thousand wizard hunters. Whether it was expansion or advancement, it was not something that their small country could sustain.

Their geographical location means they don't have many resources, otherwise how could they not be coveted?

"No, I... I am really the legendary witch hunter Mark. I have proof. Let me go and I will show you the proof." Mark was struggling.

But the steam soldier holding him down was not a pushover and couldn't make him move at all.

Lu Xingshi smiled. Proof? It was all in his hands. Even if it was true, if he said it was false, then it was false.

"Even if I admit your identity, what can you do?"

"Be honest. You must be a pampered person. You can't bear the interrogation and torture in the army." Lu Xingshi said softly.

This made Mark pause.

They are all dead, and it has no impact on the Aore Empire.

The Aore Empire and the Holy Kingdom have long since torn relations. After all, you are all on the enemy's side. Why do you care about your soldiers?
Even if we reconcile in the future, if you ask again, the answer will be just three words: I don't know.

Whether it was Mark or the wizard hunter, it would be insignificant if they were all destroyed without killing Lu Xingshi.

"You...no, no, I..." Mark was very scared. The cruelty of war and his own failure had completely become the fear in his heart.

In his imagination, he would lead the wizard hunters to easily kill the 'wizard' Grand Duke Landon, and then proudly question the Aure Empire with Grand Duke Landon's head, and everyone in the alliance of nations would admire him very much.

Instead of being captured by the enemy who outnumbers us in obscurity like now, and then dying in an unknown corner.

This was not the result he wanted at all.

"Let him have a good sleep." Lu Xingshi was extremely disappointed, but when he thought about it, it was normal for an arrogant small country to be so arrogant and ignore an empire that the people it sent out were strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

After all, what seems like a huge deal to them may just be a small matter in the empire.

The steam soldier gave Mark a heavy blow, causing him to fall asleep.

On the other side, after the troops attacking the main camp were completely wiped out by Gato, he immediately led his troops to support Lu Xingshi.

After seeing that Lu Xingshi was fine, Cato breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm glad you're okay. What's going on?" Gato asked, looking at the corpses on the ground.

"The wizard hunter and legendary witch hunter of the Holy Country." Lu Xingshi pointed at the fainted Mark and said, "They are just a bunch of rubbish with their heads full of glory but no real ability. It's just a good propaganda."

"But their boasting was quite successful. At least the Alliance of Nations believed it. Otherwise, they wouldn't have spent such a huge price to create opportunities for them."

Lu Xingshi laughed. The Alliance of Nations was indeed fooled. It could only be said that the Holy Country’s propaganda and pretense had successfully fooled the Alliance of Nations.

Cato didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He also fell for it: "Who would have thought that the lies of the Holy Kingdom were so perfect."

"It's not necessarily a lie. It's possible that the civilians and high-ranking officials of the Holy Country believed it themselves." Lu Xingshi thought of Mark's attitude: "To deceive others, you must first deceive yourself."

“So the top leaders of the Holy Kingdom may really believe that their legendary witch hunters and wizard hunter troops are invincible.” Lu Xingshi said seriously.

For a moment, Cato didn't know what to say. Apart from anything else, if one wanted to have a strong enough army, one must first have a strong national strength. With the resources of a small place like the Holy Kingdom, the national strength could not be strong at all.

What makes them feel invincible?

"The Holy Kingdom has been at peace for too long and has forgotten that it is just a small country." Cato finally said this.
