Real Mount and Blade Game

Of course, Shen Mu didn't need these humans from Blue Star to go to the front line of the battlefield to help him.

Because in Shen Mu's opinion, these templates are only Blue Star humans at the level of Swadian militia and Swadian recruits. They are useless even if they go to the battlefield. When facing the thousands of skeletons rushing directly at them, they will only cause trouble.

It doesn't help at all.

What's more, he has obtained new help and has come to the east wall. These helpers from the Kugit Khanate are trustworthy and reassuring to him.

It was those thousands of Kugit horse archers and veteran Kugit horse archers.

"Swish, swish, swish -"

With the addition of thousands of Kugit horse archers and veteran Kugit horse archers, a torrential, accurate and overwhelming rain of arrows has covered the city walls and towers every 20 meters.

Any skeletons that appeared on the ramp were smashed into pieces and rolled down the ramp at a faster speed.

"Very good! Very good! Seize the opportunity to quickly adjust your positions!"

Fatis saw this scene from the gate of the east wall, and immediately shouted to the soldiers on the wall who had begun to disperse their formation to adjust their positions again, so that they could repel the skeletons rushing up next time in a more convenient, quicker and easier manner.

How to make your attack more smooth and easier on the city wall is obviously a science.

As long as your attack method and position are quite comfortable.

Then for the enemy, launching a siege would be an even more difficult task, after all, the attackers are already at a disadvantage.

Once the defenders find the most convenient, fastest and most comfortable way to defend the city, it will be as if the enemies are trapped in the cruelest hell. No matter how bravely and efficiently they attack the city, their final outcome will not be good.

Just like now.

These were fourth- and fifth-level mounted archers and veteran mounted archers. Every time they drew their bows and shot arrows, relying on their years of experience in fighting on horseback, every time they released a rain of arrows, they could knock down large numbers of skeletons.

As a result, those who had originally touched the baffle on the top of the city wall and started to hit it with the weapons in their hands had many cracks appearing on the wood spliced ​​on the surface of the baffle, and it looked like the baffle was about to shatter.

The rainstorm created by these newly joined Kugit horse archers and veteran horse archers was really crucial.

Let the soldiers on the city wall, who were panting due to fatigue, have a chance to catch their breath.

By the way, Fatis also transferred more reserve troops from under the city wall to above it.

Including those troops of the Holy Tree Knights.

Although the Holy Tree Spearmen and Holy Tree Swordsmen are both second- and third-level soldiers, they can still produce some good effects on the city walls thanks to their excellent defense and armor, as well as the more than two-meter-long spears in their hands.

Of course, it was also thanks to the archers of the Khergit Khanate who smashed those skeletons with rain of arrows.

This made it impossible for these densely packed skeletons rushing up to go directly from the bottom of the ramp to the top as they did before and use the weapons in their hands to attack the baffles, or even the soldiers defending the city behind the baffles.

After all, the mounted archers of the Khergit Khanate were good at harassing the enemy in field battles.

When defending the city.

With his excellent archery skills, he is also a good defender of the city!
"Very good, these Khergit Seven Archers arrived just in time. It looks like the defense of the city wall has finally been stabilized."

Fatis's face was more relaxed at this time. Looking at the black mist gradually fading away at the bottom of the slope, he understood that this was the result of the skeletons in the black mist being defeated and scattered into useless bone fragments. The negative energy had no way to gather and so dissipated on its own.

This also means that they have finally gained the upper hand.

'Rustle!'

But before the smile on Fatis's face could last too long, he subconsciously turned his head to look outside the east wall, and a stiff expression appeared on his face.

"Wait!?" In Fatis's eyes, just outside the east wall, in a place where the Holy Light Torch Tower could not illuminate, he actually discovered a black wave surging towards this side.

It was as if a huge wave was rising from the depths of the sea, so huge that he even felt a little trembling in his heart as he stood on the breakwater.

"What's that over there!? There seems to be something going on over there!!"

"Pay attention! Pay attention to the east. Look what's that over there!?"

At this time, the mounted and swordsman soldiers on the east wall all widened their eyes and subconsciously looked towards the overwhelming black wave rushing over outside the east wall, and they all exclaimed in surprise.

Because the wave was really surging, rolling in, rushing over like a flood!
Although the speed was not fast, it carried a momentum that seemed to completely overwhelm them. Anyone who saw it would feel terrified, including Fatis and these Mounted Blade soldiers.

This also included Shen Mu, who was still watching the battle outside on the third floor of the main building of the city wall, and the mounted and swordsman soldiers around him.

"Master Shen Mu, there is something wrong with the special black fog that appeared in the east."

A Holy Tree Knight looked towards the black fog rolling in from the east, and immediately reached out to clench the hilt of his sword, gritted his teeth and said slowly: "The evil aura that is filled in there is really too strong."

"That's right, Lord Shen Mu, please be careful next time. I also sense the evil aura and dark power inside. It's quite powerful."

The other four Holy Tree Knights also came to Shen Mu's side, moved closer to his body, and tightly grasped the Holy Tree Knight shields in their left hands, looking vigilantly at the black fog wave in the east.

"Yeah, I know, and I will be careful too." Shen Mu nodded gently, but there was not much fear on his face.

Because he knows that Stage 8 has begun.

The black fog wave that has appeared now is filled with more skeletons and looks terrifying, but you have to know that the truly terrifying enemy is still hiding in the deepest darkness and has not been revealed.

That's the spellcaster with dark magic.

The guy who created the ramp.

He is also the vanguard commander-in-chief of the Seventh Dynasty of Black Arrow Tower mentioned in the Mount and Blade system.

The goal of completing the mission in the 8th stage is to defeat, repel or kill this guy, and then get different mission rewards based on your performance.

"The Mount and Blade system actually gave me three options. Defeat and repel are easy to explain. It means to make him retreat when he encounters difficulties, or to retreat on his own after being defeated." Shen Mu frowned, his face became a little solemn, and his eyes were serious.

It is precisely because the Mount and Blade system gave him these two options to complete the task more easily that Shen Mu knew that this mission should be somewhat difficult.

Especially killing him, it should be difficult. After all, if it was easy to kill him, the Mount & Blade system would definitely tell him directly in the mission description based on his current strength that the goal this time was to kill this 8th stage necromancer.

There is no need to give him a chance or fight him off, which are the simpler options.

Shen Mu slowly exhaled a breath.

There is confidence in his eyes.

"But as for killing him, that is not impossible. After all, the reward for the 7th wave of tasks we just received includes a Holy Light Enchanted Scroll." Shen Mu's eyes flickered.

This is a timely reward.

"Open the instruction interface!" Shen Mu's thought communication system.

Then, the item introduction interface from the Mount & Blade system appeared on his retina.

[Item name: Holy Light Enchanted Scroll (one-time)]

[Item Level: Campaign Level]

[Item Introduction: This is a sacred scroll from the Inquisition of the Aidengard Empire. It contains the incomparable power of holy light. As long as you are willing to yearn for light, you can get the protection of holy light.]

[Item effect: After use, all people gain +30% burning damage, and +200% additional holy light damage to dark creatures. Duration: 30 minutes.]

[Item requirements: Need to be used in an area with sunlight or holy light. ]

This is the specific ability of the Holy Light Enchanted Scroll he obtained.

Quite powerful.

Because once this scroll is used, all soldiers who are willing to yearn for light in this battle will receive the benefits of this Holy Light Enchanted Scroll.

For example, the damage is increased by 30% of the burning effect.

And the most important thing is that it directly adds 200% additional holy light damage to dark creatures.

This means that in the past, every time you cut someone with a knife, it was just an ordinary cut.

Once you use this scroll.

When Shen Mu's soldiers slash at dark creatures like skeletons, they will suffer 30% burning damage, as well as additional holy light damage that is 200% stronger than the previous slash!

Shen Mu's attention is now focused on the 200% additional holy light damage.

You should know that these include the spears, lances and swords of ordinary soldiers, the crossbows and feather arrows of long-range archers, as well as throwing weapons and even bricks and stones in their hands.

As long as these soldiers who yearn for light are willing to pick up any of their weapons, then the Holy Light Enchantment Scroll, this campaign-level benefit scroll can help them complete the enchantment.

And you have to know that Shen Mu’s Dehrim has not only individual weapons, but also the crossbows and catapults on the tower!

"Back then, I was able to shoot extremely powerful abyssal demons to death in my Dehrim with the help of a crossbow."

Shen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly at this time, and his look became more and more confident: "So now I have so many troops, and so many light and medium crossbows, as well as catapults, etc., why can't I get rid of the vanguard commander of the Black Arrow Tower Seventh Dynasty!?"

Ordinary skeletons will be beaten into skeleton slag.

Then Shen Mu didn't believe that his crossbow, after being enchanted by Holy Light, could not blast the vanguard commander of the Seventh Dynasty of the Black Arrow Tower into a pile of useless rotten bones!
What's more, the castle area has now reached the final stage.

As long as the finishing stage of the castle area has been completed, he can redeploy the troops to the east wall again and let those skeleton legions know what it means to be a Mount & Blade soldier from the world of Mount & Blade who is united as one, will not retreat easily, has high loyalty and a strong fighting will!
At this time, he glanced at Zhang Bo, who was still pretending to be calm and had a mocking smile on his face. He ignored him and instead lowered his head again to look inside the castle area.

Heaps of corpses were piled up in the castle's courtyard and outer courts.

They are all corpses of wood elves.

Now in the library of the Holy Light Torch Tower of the White Council in the castle, the figures of the wood elves that were originally pouring in have become much fewer.

One could only look down from the third floor and vaguely see that there were still about two to three hundred wood elves occupying the Holy Light Torch Tower of the Holy White Council.

Still fighting like a trapped beast.

However, since the archers and crossbowmen on the surrounding city walls had already consumed most of their feather arrows and crossbow bolts in the previous battle, their lethality had been greatly reduced without these consumables.

For long-range shooters, without these consumables such as arrows, it is equivalent to losing more than half of their killing power.

But even if these long-range archers did not continue to release intensive rain of arrows, as the wood elves in the library did not dare to rush out and just hid in the library, it can be understood that these wood elves have been frightened by the previous intensive rain of arrows.

no way.

毕竟沈穆通过第4波第5波和第6波获得的奖励拥有的那些三阶的维基亚游击射手和三阶的罗多克弩手，包括4阶和5阶的远程射手，都已经安排在了城堡主楼和城堡片区的城墙上。

The total number is close to a thousand.

There is no need to tell how many wood elves were killed by the dense rain of arrows. One only needs to look at the corpses lying all over the courtyard and outer court of the entire castle area, as well as the countless arrow tails and crossbow tails growing like weeds.

They have already started a killing spree.

A massacre began.

"but."

Shen Mu raised his head and listened attentively. Hearing the sound of fighting coming from the stairs, he couldn't help but frowned: "Why hasn't the battle in the castle hall ended yet? I remember that 100 Rhodok soldiers have been placed there, and 100 long-range shooters have been placed in the surrounding shooting boxes. It's impossible that the battle is still in a fierce stalemate."

Shen Mu was a little dissatisfied. After all, the eighth stage of the battle had already begun.

This is the aftertaste of stage 7.

Do you want to enjoy it again? (End of this chapter)
