Chapter 162 The One-sided Massacre

"Closer, closer..." Roger observed the movements of the murlocs from behind the bushes, muttering about their locations, and occasionally glanced back at Bonnie, without showing any nervousness. 【】

The female knight was a little surprised at first, why a knight school student would be so calm in the face of so many enemies, but she soon thought of the reason.Roger had repelled an army of tens of thousands of undead, so of course he wouldn't pay attention to just a few hundred murlocs.

After understanding this section, Bonnie no longer worried about the battle situation, and began to focus on observing Roger's performance in battle, wondering if he was a qualified commander.

Meanwhile the murlocs were close enough that Roger quickly gave the order to shoot to the crossbowmen behind the bushes.Dozens of arrows suddenly shot out from behind the bushes, catching the murloc by surprise.

Although these guys have scales all over their bodies, it is difficult for ordinary people to hurt them even with weapons, but they cannot resist the arrows shot at close range.The murlocs who ran in the front were shot by sharp arrows one after another, screaming and rolling to the ground.After all, the scales can play some defensive role. Most of the murlocs who were shot were not dead, and fell to the ground struggling in pain.Green blood flowed out from the murloc's wound, and the air soon filled with a disgusting stench.

Murlocs are creatures with very low intelligence. Even in this situation, they didn't realize that they had fallen into a trap.On the contrary, when the same kind were injured, it aroused the fierceness of other murlocs. Their short legs moved faster and their voices became louder, as if they would not give up until they killed all humans.

"I don't know how to live or die!" Roger coldly commented on the murlocs, and ordered the crossbowmen to continue to strike.

Because of the loss of suddenness, the murlocs had already held their crude shields in front of them, so the crossbowman's second round of shooting did not cause the first round of damage.However, the two rounds of shooting also eliminated a dozen murlocs, and the same number of murlocs were seriously injured, which is considered a good result.

After the second round of firing, the murloc had rushed to within twenty paces of the bush.Such a short distance was no longer enough for the crossbowmen to launch a second round of strikes, and Roger immediately ordered the iron spearmen and longsword warriors who had been waiting for a long time to attack.

The bushes were suddenly opened, and heavily armed iron spearmen and longsword warriors appeared in front of the murlocs.At this time, the distance between the two sides was only four or five steps away, and the slow-witted murlocs didn't react at all, but instinctively rushed towards the iron spearmen in the tight formation.

Facing the iron spearmen with neat formations and high fighting spirit, even the light cavalry had to avoid their edge, let alone the murlocs who ran on two short legs and only had simple weapons?

When the murlocs charged at the Iron Spearmen, they were committing mass suicide.With their short arms and the length of their weapons, they are still too far behind the iron spears. These idiots have been pierced by the iron spears before they pose a threat to the iron spearmen.

Even worse for murlocs is their height.Although these guys are considered "big guys" compared to their peers, they are still far inferior to the burly Iron Spears.The height of the murlocs is generally only a little higher than the chest of the Iron Spearman, and this is exactly the height of the Iron Spearman when he raises his weapon.In addition, murlocs like to charge with their big mouths open, so many murlocs were directly pierced by iron spears through their mouths and then pierced through the back of their heads, and died immediately beyond death.

And the murlocs' minds were really dull enough, many iron spears had two or even three murlocs on them.The corpses of the murlocs were just hung on the iron spear, turning the iron spear into a veritable fish skewer.

In just a short time, half of the dozens of murlocs running in the front died.Seeing a large number of light spots flying in the air and then sinking into his body, Roger couldn't help but feel very happy.Since he left Mandos City, he hasn't fought a decent battle for a long time, and the feeling of absorbing a lot of soul power at this moment has become a little strange.It is of course a good thing for Roger to absorb a lot of soul power, at least it can change the recent situation that soul power is only consumed but not paid.

Bonnie looked at Roger with a somewhat joyful and happy expression, and couldn't help admiring him a little more.In the memory of the female knight, no one has shown an expression like Roger's in battle, which clearly shows that he is not nervous at all, but enjoys the battle to eliminate the murlocs.In Bonnie, Roger's performance undoubtedly shows that he is a truly courageous man.

After paying a heavy price, the murlocs finally realized that these humans were not easy to mess with, and began to retreat to the village noisily.How could Roger let go of such a good opportunity?Immediately ordered the soldiers to take advantage of the victory to pursue, while the crossbowmen stayed where they were and called the fleeing murlocs one by one.

Compared with the murlocs with short legs, the charging speed of both iron spearmen and longsword warriors was much faster.They caught up with the murlocs from behind, stabbed them with iron spears and chopped them with long swords, and started a one-sided massacre.

The murlocs had never seen such a ferocious human being, and they had lost their fighting spirit long ago, just like when they charged before, they fled for their lives in a panic to the village.The soldiers under Roger followed closely behind, killing all the murlocs that they overtook.Except for those murlocs who were closer to the village and fled back, the other murlocs were all wiped out on the way to escape.

By the time the soldiers chased outside the village wall, more than 100 murlocs had been wiped out.This number is already equal to half of the total number of murlocs entrenched here, creating favorable conditions for the next attack on the village.

The first confrontation between the two sides ended with Roger's complete victory, but he would not be satisfied with it. Instead, he asked the soldiers to regroup and prepare to attack the village of the murlocs.To complete the task, you must get the head of the murloc leader, and Roger will never let it go before this is achieved.

Iron Spearmen and Longsword Warriors quickly lined up about ten steps away from the village, and they would launch an attack as soon as Roger gave an order.

During this period, some murlocs who were not afraid of death leaned out from the fence and threw stones at Roger's soldiers with slings.

The so-called sling is actually a rope with a piece of leather on one end. The user wraps a small stone in the leather, then shakes the rope vigorously, and uses centrifugal force to throw the stone out to kill the enemy.

However, this kind of weapon is not very powerful and accurate, and it poses no threat to Roger's soldiers at all.On the contrary, the murlocs using slings were shot down by the longbowmen one after another, causing Roger to absorb some soul power.

The walls of the murloc village had long been damaged, and they didn't have much defense capability at all.After eliminating the murlocs using slings, Roger was about to order his soldiers to attack the village, but suddenly a very large murloc head protruded from the village wall.
