In the Age of Heroes, I am a background noble

That will be the time when the sky collapses, and they will return to their previous state. The ghosts will simply not be able to have their current living conditions and status.

To be honest, there are not too many big ghosts who died now, and most of them are those vassal races. He really doesn't feel too sad. As an old man who has lived for a long time, his mental quality is strong enough and he is cruel enough.

Besides, there are sufficient supplies now, and Earl Green himself, his wife, and some soldiers are also here. He doesn't think that the other party will give up the Jura Forest easily, so there is no need to be too anxious for the time being.

If the emperor is not anxious, why should the eunuch be anxious?

Uh, it should be the imperial concubine.

So he said:

"Lord Green is right. You must not go out alone to fight the Pig-Head Emperor. That would be irrational."

"Currently, the city has sufficient food, fresh water, and medicine. We can hold out for at least three months. We also have plenty of defensive weapons, and our walls are high and strong. There's no need for you to take any risks."

It seems reasonable.

No one would oppose in this kind of atmosphere. It was unknown what they were thinking, but almost all the demihumans nodded in agreement and tried to dissuade Rimuru.

Green also tried to coax the guy who wanted to show a miracle for a while, saying that he should hold on for a few more days.

Seeing that a group of people were trying to dissuade him, Rimuru could only swallow his breath temporarily, walked to the other side of the city wall in a muffled voice, and stared fiercely at the camp with smoke rising in the distance.

"Fuck, that's troublesome."

The Earl sighed. How could there be immortality? He was still too young.

It's not that he doesn't believe that Rimuru can do it. If everything goes well, Rimuru can indeed lead a group of people to rush out and attack the nest directly, and compete with the Pig Head Emperor City. However, the danger is too great, and even Rimuru may be sacrificed.

But what good would that do to me?

Without Rimuru, it would be difficult for him to control this group of demihumans. If he was not careful, his strategic intentions would collapse. Without the power of the Jura Great Forest, it would be difficult for him to extend his hand into the Demihuman Plains at a small cost.

For Green, the best thing is to let these subhumans hold on. The situation seems to be a little critical now, but he still has the confidence to hold on. When the pig-headed people can no longer continue to surround and kill them, there will only be two possibilities.

The Pig-Headed Emperor will lead the charge, and I can take this opportunity to get rid of the opponent.

Otherwise, it would not be a big problem for the pig-headed people to retreat. With the pig-headed people's sieve-like intelligence system, he, Fulilian, and Naofumi Iwamine could sneak in in the middle of the night and kill the pig-headed people. Green thought that he was strong enough and would not die even if he failed to complete the mission.

Both plans are good, but they just require holding out for a while longer and some subhumans will die.

Green didn't feel sorry at all. If they died, they died. The demi-humans were like weeds. There were new ones after one batch died. Even if too many core big ghosts died accidentally, he could just replace them with a batch of other dogs.

But although his ideas are avant-garde, the reality is very harsh. Rimuru cannot accept the death of his subordinates. Unlike Grimm who treats sub-humans as consumables, Rimuru really treats his subordinates as close people.

Fortunately, things took a turn for the better. After about a week, the casualties of the Pig-Headed People became more and more horrific, and the Pig-Headed Emperor finally could not sit still anymore.

Finally, something ruthless came.

The Pig-Headed People dispatched their most elite troops and assembled three thousand cuirassier infantrymen by plundering the wealth of other tribes.

Sure enough, the unstoppable effect was remarkable. The quality of this group of pig-headed people had obviously risen to a higher level, whether in terms of equipment, combat effectiveness, or strength. The casualty rate on the city wall suddenly soared. If it weren't for the battle to defend the city, the soldiers of these vassal races would have already started to run away.

Green couldn't help but join the battle, and asked Naofumi Iwamine who was following him, as well as the elite soldiers he brought with him, to participate in defending the city and block the pig-headed men under the city wall.

The situation became tense again, and the city wall became deadlocked again.

Seeing this, the Pig Head Emperor finally moved.

Suddenly, an angry roar came from the dense crowd of pig-headed people under the city, followed by a slight tremor. Then, an extremely large pig-headed man at least four or five meters tall, wearing heavy plate armor and holding a nail hammer, began to charge, rushing forward recklessly without paying any attention to the presence of his fellow tribesmen.

Those scarlet eyes are enough to make one's heart tremble.

"Roar!!!!!"

With one blow, he cut the pig-headed man climbing the wall into two pieces, and the intestines and blood splattered all over Green. He wiped it with the clothes of the dead pig-headed man next to him with some disgust. He heard the roar and looked in the direction quickly. The huge pig-headed man was too eye-catching, and he stood out among these guys who were less than 1.6 meters tall.

Has it finally appeared?

Green's eyes lit up. This bastard might have some breath concealing ability. He hadn't discovered anything when he went to investigate at night some time ago! Furthermore, this guy's normal size didn't seem much different from that of an ordinary pig-headed man. It was only in his combat form that he was so gigantic.

He looked up at the sky and raised his hand to make a yes gesture. That was the secret signal he and Fulilian had agreed upon.

In fact, Green never let Frillen take action. He just let her, who had the strongest mobility, hide above the clouds temporarily, and wait until the pig-headed man came out to launch a sneak attack, leaving the pig-headed man with no way to escape.

"Roar!!!!"

The pig-headed man rushed at a very fast speed. In less than a minute, he rushed all the way to the top of the city wall. His huge body was like a tank, and he hit the city wall so hard that it trembled. If it weren't for the advanced magic technology used by humans to reinforce the city wall in advance, the city would have collapsed by now.

But the guards on the city wall still changed their expressions and were a little scared.

What the hell is this monster?

In the game's terms, the enemy has activated a deterrent active skill, and our soldiers' resistance is reduced by 5%.

The pig-headed man reached the city wall, poked through a small piece of stone with one claw, and began to climb the wall violently. No matter how the guards above shot arrows and threw stones, he was not affected at all and was about to reach the top of the city.

Finally, he climbed to the top of the city wall, and his terrifying blood-spewing mouth let out a suffocating roar at the subhuman soldiers, and his terrifying fangs seemed to be able to pierce people in an instant.

"Roar!!!"

At this moment, there was a faint flicker of light in the sky.

Fulilian, who was floating in the air, used the magic telescope she had just learned to detect Green's signal.

"Um, is it time for me to take action?"

"All right"

She murmured, although she was reluctant to kill this non-demon intelligent life, it was Green's request after all, so there was nothing she could do?

Raising her staff, a breathtaking flame burned fiercely in the air, contrasted with Fulilian's calm expression.

"The magic of the red lotus fire."

Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged, and the cloud cluster with Fulilian as the core began to twist, and the air pressure forced them to form a rotating vortex.

boom!

Like a group of falling stars, a ball of fiery red lotus roared towards the bottom of the tomb.

medical

It was as if he had issued K's judgment on behalf of the sun god.

Chapter 178 Decisive Battle

"The magic of the red lotus fire."

boom!

The terrifying flames hit the Pig-Headed Emperor who was climbing the city wall like a cannonball. The originally dark sky suddenly became bright for a moment. Everyone felt an inexplicable soreness in front of their eyes and couldn't help blinking. When they came to their senses, they saw a huge fireball rolling under the top of the city.

"Oh oh oh oh!!!!!!"

The Pig-Headed Emperor let out a heart-wrenching scream. The magic of the Red Lotus Karma Fire pierced through his chest, leaving a hole the size of a human head. Blood spurted out of the hole. His broken heart had stopped beating and was even burned into charcoal by the magic of the Red Lotus Karma Fire.

"That's awesome."

Green gave a thumbs up to the sky. Everything should be fine now.

He found that the Pig-Head Emperor was probably a fake. Although his energy level in the system was over 50, he was still killed in seconds by Frelian. Although energy level does not represent everything, this was too weak. It seemed that he was just being slaughtered as an experience bag.

"Good opportunity! Shoot, shoot!!"

An officer quickly called on other soldiers to start shooting. Although they didn't know who did it, now that they saw that the Pig-Head Emperor might be about to die, shouldn't they finish him off?

The other demihumans also suddenly realized that they had to finish off the enemy! Today was the day to achieve their goal!

Green in the city had already offered a bounty to the soldiers. Anyone who could cause harm to the Pig-Head Emperor would be rewarded handsomely, even if you only shot a hole in the Pig-Head Emperor's skin with a bow and arrow!

The theory is that if the Pig-headed Emperor Green is killed, the location of the Earth-Splitting Lordship will be in the wasteland near the Jura Forest, but he didn't expect it in the first place.

The soldiers on the city wall picked up their bows and arrows and shot. The human soldiers even took out the enchanted bows and arrows they brought from the Medici Territory and shot at the Pig-Headed Emperor who was still rolling on the ground.

Green's mouth twitched suddenly. "God damn it, grabbing the kill, huh? This guy is over level 50!"

He couldn't help but complain in his heart, but he also knew that it was useless to say anything. This was probably his own fault, so he could only quickly grab the enchanted crossbow and start shooting at the pig-headed man, determined to shoot him to death.

shhhhhh!

In less than ten seconds, hundreds of arrows were fired downwards in unison, like a murderous rain, and the eerie silver light burst out densely under the action of kinetic energy.

At this moment, the Pighead Emperor, who was in shock and unconscious due to excessive blood loss, had no strength left. He fell to the ground and couldn't move. He could only watch himself being shot to death.

Am I going to die today?

Flashes began to flash through its mind.

"Boss!"

"king!"

"Boss!!!"

“Ah!!!! Be careful!”

The pig-headed people shouted that this was really adding insult to injury.

Oops!

A Pig-Headed Officer in full plate armor, Mohawk-like, discovered this and cried out, "This is bad news! Their King is in danger! Anyone can die, but the Pig-Headed Emperor cannot die! He is the Pig-Headed People's hope!"

It was just a subconscious action. The Mohawk Pig-Headed Man didn't bother to defend himself and directly threw his bloated body on the Pig-Headed Emperor, using his body to block the arrows.

There were several other pig-headed men who did the same thing as it, all of them using their lives to protect their leader!

No matter what the Pig-Headed Emperor does, it was he who ultimately led the Pig-Headed people out of the days of being animals, so that they no longer have to eat shit and dirt every day to survive. Therefore, the Pig-Headed Emperor must not die!

Arrows were shot at them in unison. One of the enchanted arrows even pierced through the heart of the Mohawk Pig-Headed Man. The arrow that penetrated his heart was Green's. He shot at the Pig-Headed Emperor, but he didn't expect that it was blocked by the Mohawk Pig-Headed Man.

"Tsk, that's really troublesome."

Green frowned. These guys were really willing to risk their lives. The Pig Head Emperor's reputation was indeed very high. He thought about it and decided to take a little risk.

Amidst the incomprehensible gazes of the crowd, he grabbed his broad-bladed longsword and jumped off the city wall, fearing that if he was a step slower, the Pig-Head Emperor would die first, and he would not be able to gain experience from the Pig-Head Emperor, who was over level 50. If he killed him, his level might reach nearly 60.

However, the Pig-Headed Emperor was unaware of this for the time being as he was still unconscious.

"goo"

The Mohawk Pig-Headed Man who was shot into a hedgehog couldn't help but spit out a large mouthful of blood, which sprayed all over the Pig-Headed Emperor's face. Then his pupils began to dilate and he lost his life.

"Grumpy"

The Pig-Headed Emperor subconsciously opened his mouth and let the blood fall into his mouth. The sweet smell of blood made his heart and blood stir again. His brain became clearer and he knew what had happened.

What should I do?

If he ate his loyal subordinates now, he might be able to recover immediately.

With the help of drinking the blood, the originally charred heart actually turned a little red, and within a second or two, a large number of memories began to flash back.

It was an afternoon when the ground was cracked and dry.

Due to the rare drought, the tribes of various races in the Subhuman Plains generally had poor harvests. However, this did not affect the royal family and the superior races from eating, drinking and having fun. They didn't care about you so much, as long as they couldn't let their own people starve.

Not only did they not reduce taxes, but they forced the vassal races and tribes below to hand over more wealth and food to make up for their losses. Those tribes that were already being exploited wanted to resist, but they were directly slaughtered by the tax collectors, and no one dared to resist anymore.

We can only increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

The status of the pig-headed people is even lower than that of lower races. They are only slightly higher than livestock. They are kept in a fixed range and live there. Although they have a certain level of intelligence, they can only live the same life as livestock. When famine comes, they will be slaughtered and eaten.

This year was no exception. The extremely hungry pig-headed people were slaughtered for meat by the lower tribes, which led to a large number of pig-headed people suffering a tragic fate. Not only that, the pig-headed people who escaped the disaster also lost their food supply. The black paste like feces that was mixed with all kinds of messy things in the past was gone, and they could only eat dirt in the enclosure.

In the eyes of the tribe that keeps them in captivity, eating shit is a reward and a blessing for the pig-headed people, but if they are in trouble, eating dirt is also right.

But is it really possible to live on just eating dirt?

This is actually just the contempt of many sub-humans for the lowest-level pig-headed people, the first-class race. Pig-headed people are at least human beings. Although they can indeed absorb trace nutrients from the soil due to their racial advantages, they will still die.

That year, the Pig-Head Emperor was also the king of the Pig-Headed People, although this was a joke in the eyes of other races.

"Wow, I'm so hungry."

"I want to eat"

Several pig-headed cubs knelt on the cracked ground and cried. They were so hungry that they could not bear it any more. The black goo that was difficult to swallow before was gone, and they were in the growth period and could not bear it at all.

Wang, let’s call him that for now.

The Pig-Headed King was wearing a tattered linen gown without any patches, which was his only advantage as a king.

"Are you hungry? Wait a moment."
