Chapter 44 Counterattack
When Lim heard Lu Xi's charge sound of "Demacia", she had already stabbed her swords in her hands without hesitation and invaded her body. Although she didn't know what "Demacia" meant, she always felt that the slogan of charge was very powerful. So, Chi Bai and Huo Hong's double blades really turned into invincible meteors in Lim's hands. The four skeletons were smashed to pieces in just one encounter.
Irovier is an assassin at level 18 and a shadow priest at level 10. She moves quickly and silently, and can skillfully use Drow assassination techniques and some basic spells. At this time, she protected Primra's flanks, and the scimitars and daggers in both hands were like poisonous snakes spitting out their letters. She did not do any false moves and hit the enemy's vital points, which were extremely cruel. Two winged men covered the blood foam coming out of their throats and died in great pain.
Standing in the middle of the triangle arrow, the one who charges forward and leads the way is naturally the unrivaled tank in the team - the silver puppet "Abu". Although it has a very frustrated, similar to the name of a pet cat, the only meaning of existence of the constructed puppet since it was created by the alchemist wizards was killing. Its efficiency in killing enemies may not be as good as that of Lim, who has excellent martial arts skills and Weier, who has a fatal move, but the enemy who dies in its hands does not have a complete one, and its deterrence to the enemy is naturally the most powerful.
Just as the third enemy was punched in the neck by Abu, no one dared to get close to it within three meters except for skeletons and zombies who had no ability to think.
The three magic apprentices stood behind and watched the show, playing a few magic tricks from time to time. When a federal lieutenant named Graheim came to rescue with more than 20 soldiers, all the enemies at the commander's office had been cleared.
"You... did this?" Lieutenant Graham looked at the corpses of enemies all over the ground, and looked at Lu Xi and others as if they were looking at monsters. As a native of the Federation, Graham naturally knew the power of the magician, but he also knew that the boys and girls in front of him were not experienced combat mages, but they were just magic apprentices who came to practice.
"You only have three people..."
"Did you think of Lim and me as attachments?" Iroviel muttered in dissatisfaction.
"Is the quality of the mage in the Central Committee so high? But you are just magic apprentices! This... is the senior war mage directly under the headquarters, so they can only achieve this level."
"Maybe because we are the protagonists." Lu Xi shrugged, then slapped the door of the headquarters room vigorously and reported his name loudly. A loud noise came from the room, and someone opened the door soon.
Major Lorens walked out with a few guards.
He had already put on his armor and held a big sword in his right hand. Generally speaking, the physical strength of the Winged Man is weaker than that of humans, so it is rare to be tough people who can equip iron armor and heavy weapons with both hands. A trace of blood was seeping in his underwear under his left shoulder armor, and the blade of the heavy sword in his right hand was completely dyed red. It can be seen that before Lu Xi arrived, there had been a fierce battle.
In addition, there were only seven or eight people left around him who could fight, including four monsters holding small crossbows and hammer balls.
This was the first time Lu Xi saw the old butler Gamcha's fellow clan on the battlefield, and he couldn't help but take a look. He knew that the strength of the monsters lies in their natural understanding of mechanisms and engineering. The best way to play their strength is the warehouses that construct puppets and the siege machinery. When he arrived at the front battlefield, his combat power was probably not as good as that of the goblins and skeleton soldiers.
No wonder a dignified silver level 1 would be so embarrassed by a group of black iron and bronzes. After all, ants would bite the elephant to death! If I came a little later, the commander of Job One might really die in his command.
"I really didn't expect that you were the first one to save me?" The major looked at Lu Xi and showed a look of surprise.
"First, it's not just us who came to save me, but also the troops brought by this lieutenant." Lu Xi shook his head and gave up Lieutenant Graham behind him.
"Second, the Federation has military laws, and the generals have made mistakes, and the entire army will be punished. I can't take such a big blame in just a few months of military training."
"It sounds like there is a third one." Major Lorens said coldly.
"Well, third, the rescue chief is the responsibility of his subordinates. Above!"
"Hmph, I'll spare you if you don't mean it. But thank you!" The major smiled and then pointed his eyes at Graham, "You are Lieutenant Graheim, the captain of the Sixth Team."
"It's the lower lieutenant." The young lieutenant put his legs together and gave a mighty military salute. "I am so happy to see that you are fine, the subordinates are so happy!"
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Major Lorens looked back and looked at the armed soldiers under the lieutenant.
"Do you have so many people in your team?"
"Yes, your lord. In addition to the three sentries who were killed by sneak attacks, four were killed in battle, and the rest were all here. Thirty-five people should be there, and twenty-eight people actually!"
"Twenty-eight people are enough..." Major Lorens pondered for a moment, then ordered loudly: "Lt. Graheim, you can separate eight people and stay here with the remaining personnel of the headquarters. The rest of the people will come with me!"
"I understand, Master Major!" The lieutenant, as a professional soldier, quickly responded loudly.
"Come with you? Where are you going?" Lu Xi, a non-staff member, quickly raised objections.
"Of course we are gathering our troops step by step and ready to fight back!" The major turned to look at Lu Xi, and a hint of sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "If the magician master dared not, he could just stay in the headquarters."
"Hey, what a clumsy third-rate aggressive general." Lu Xi couldn't help but shrugging. He turned around and looked at his companions and received their affirmative answer, "But it seems that we really have to be fooled. Just accompany you like this, don't forget to report the merits to the military."
"Hmph, no matter how you 'federal pillars' are, you must have the credit of the 'federal pillars'." The major replied coldly, turned to a left-behind officer in the headquarters with the second lieutenant's ejection and said, "If there are any reinforcements from our side to come to support, let them hold on to the headquarters! You will be responsible for everything here!"
"As for orders! Sir!"
So, after a simple bandage, Lorens led his team again to follow the way of Lu Xi and the others to support him. At this time, he had already received the heavy sword on his back and lifted a spear with murderous aura on his face. This is normal. As a nation that loves flying, the Winged Man is better at using bows and spears that are easy to attack. Although Major Lorens should be a rare and tough man among the Winged Man, he should be more convenient to use the spear than the heavy sword.
At this time, he was no longer surrounded by the few remaining defeated soldiers in the headquarters, but half a team of fully armed elite soldiers. Three magicians and two entourages were added, and his momentum was naturally very different from the sluggishness just now.
Walking on the road, he killed several teams of enemies in succession and gathered his subordinates. The team quickly expanded to nearly forty people, and Major Lorence had more confidence.
Lu Xi, who was walking in the team, looked at the aggressive commander and finally couldn't help asking: "Those Black Flag Wingers raided Job One tonight. What do you think about this as the commander here?"
"Who knows?"
"Ha? You're not responsible for your answer."
"I really don't know." Major Lorens shrugged, "Although this is an eastern border, there have been indeed incidents where Black Flag Wingers took advantage of our patrols and attacked sentry posts or business travelers. But is it really the first time to attack a castle with such a garrison?"
"For the first time? They took the wrong medicine? Judging from the current situation, there are at least 500 people who invaded the castle, and so many people will take the wrong medicine together."
"Maybe I really took the wrong medicine..." This answer obviously knew it was perfunctory.
"By the way, I also found a large number of undead soldiers. When did the Black Flag Wingers of Namoa get involved with the undead wizard of Heras?"
“…”
"Well, I don't want to answer, so I thought you were of the same race and could resonate with you."
"Boy!" Major Lorens stopped slightly, waiting for his eyes to look at Lu Xi with dangerous eyes, "As a winged white flag nobleman with noble blood, you actually classified me and that group of disgusting bandits as their kind. This is enough for me to throw a pair of white gloves at you!"
"You are a warrior, and I am a magician. White gloves and other things have nothing to do with us." Lu Xi curled his lips.
Lorens stared at Lu Xi fiercely. After a while, he snorted coldly and continued to move forward.
Lu Xi was also somewhat frightened by this gaze, and then slowly took a few steps back and moved closer to his companions.
"You, why are you still angering him?" Sai Xiliu glared at Lu Xi and whispered a few words of blame.
"I didn't want to anger him either! Who knew that this guy was so sensitive, he was like a little wife."
The winged people, usually by the white and red flags of the Federation, are distinguished from the black flags of the Namoan Mountains.
In the ancient winged man kingdom that occupied the entire Namoa region for thousands of miles, the white flag winged man represented the royal family and nobles, and was the highest ruling class of the winged man. The red flag winged man represented the warriors and officials, and was the organ of violence and power that maintained the entire social organization. As for the black flag, it represented the vast number of civilians and slaves.
It is said that Pakens, the bloodthirsty king of one of the six demons, seduced the souls of the Black Flag Wing people and injected the factors of war and killing into their souls. So, the Black Flag Wing people launched a civil war and overthrew the Winged Man Kingdom.
The defeated white and red flag wings fled westward and became an important part of the Natia Federation.
Unfortunately, Pakens taught the Black Flag Wing people to kill people, but did not teach them how to manage the land. Without the leadership of the White Flag and Red Flag, the Black Flags had to make one choice in order to survive - robbery. As a result, this formed the Black Flag Wing robbers who were famous on the mainland.
After so many years, although there is actually no difference between the white flag/red flag and the black flag’s winged people, it is enough to make the same clan that year look like water and fire.
Lu Xi couldn't understand the entanglement of the White Flag Winged Nobles, no matter how he first arrived.
The low pressure did not last long, and everyone's team rushed to the cafeteria, which was also the largest room in the entire castle. There were dozens of corpses lying everywhere, including black flag-winged bandits in shabby clothes, and more were Job-1's garrison.
This was a very unexpected discovery. Along the way, everyone did not find their own deceased, but every soldier who died in battle had at least three times his enemies lying beside him. This made Lu Xi admire the elite of the Eastern Legion, but now the scene has completely turned upside down.
The two monsters, as big as calves, as thick as crabs, and as strong as rabbits. They were covered with sword-like hair, were lying on the ground, eating the bodies of the dead in big mouths.
That was the ghoul, pets and war beasts tamed by the necromancers.
Seeing this scene, Major Lorence's eyes suddenly turned red. He roared and rushed forward with a spear.
The ghouls reacted almost at the same time. One of them jumped into the air, and their tough claws faced the major. The other one jumped directly to the high ceiling, sucking the stone wall with the hooks of their limbs, preparing to attack condescendingly.
"Tear!" The major stabbed the spear in his hand into the open bloody mouth of the ghoul, and directly turned the other party into a skewer. As for the one on the ceiling, it had been smashed by a summoning iron fist by Sai Xiliu. When it raised its head in a confused manner in the fainting of the clouds, Primra had already swung it directly.
"Bah!" Lu Xi spitted at the ghoul's corpse, "I look so much like a licker, I didn't expect it to be so delicious!"
Major Lunros waved his hand and threw away the blood that was attached to the spear. He walked to a corpse and was silent for a long time.
"That's it?"
"Captain Rudeba, deputy commander of Job One," Lieutenant Graham whispered.
Lu Xi couldn't help but feel a little sudden when he heard this. He looked around. Most of the dead on his side fell to the sky and had a painful expression on his face. At this time, Sai Xiliu had already walked to a corpse. She showed some discomfort and fear on her face, but she was forced to suppress it. She flipped over the corpse and carefully inspected it.
"How is it?" Lu Xi walked behind her and asked.
"There is no fatal trauma, but the skin shows signs of corrosion, and the body also has very annoying magic fluctuations. It is obvious that he died under the magic of the undead!"
"Hey, it turns out there is a wizard in the undead." Carol looked at the dead bodies around him, his face a little stiff, but he still made a pretended relaxed laugh.
"Hasn't everyone reached a consensus on this?"
Looking at the scene around him, Lu Xi suddenly realized something, and his face suddenly lost its blood. He used all his strength to make a hissing roar, and even the sound changed a little.
"Everyone, withdraw quickly!"
After all, he was just a newcomer who had just arrived. His reputation among the soldiers was naturally far inferior to that of the grassroots officers who ate and lived with each other. The armed soldiers looked at each other, some hesitated, and some looked at Major Lorens on the side, but no one responded.
"Major, corpse explosion!" Lu Xi shouted loudly.
Major Lorence's face also changed. He waved his big hands and shouted at the soldiers: "Run! Run!"
His order was a few steps later. At that moment, the corpses in the field seemed to have turned into human-shaped bodies, and they all exploded! The flesh and blood spread in all directions with the shock waves caused by the dark magic, which immediately caused more screams and casualties.
Chapter completed!
