Chapter 167 Break Through the Blockade!
"Slaughterhouse War?"
The black-robed old man murmured in a low voice. At this time, not only Merlin, but also many other nobles and Count Sailin all focused on the black-robed old man. m.
Only then did they remember that when it comes to big scenes, Mage Hill has a lot of knowledge. After all, he has participated in the terrifying battlefield of the "Slaughterhouse". There are not many wars that can be more cruel than the "Slaughterhouse".
The old man in black robe looked at the many soldiers under the city, seemed to be lost in memories, and said slowly: "The slaughterhouse war is very cruel. Even those powerful spellcasters who can destroy the military fortress alone don't know how much they have fallen. Can destroy military The casters of the fortress are at least level 4 casters, this is the real scene of the 'slaughterhouse' in the later stage of the war, basically there are no soldiers, all of them are powerful casters."
The old man in black robe was talking about the late stage of the war. Those powerful spellcasters who could kill thousands of ordinary people with just one spell were fighting with each other. caster.
"What about the early days of the war? What did those low-level spellcasters do?"
Merlin continued to ask.
"In the early stage of the war? Before those powerful spellcasters intervened, some low-level spellcasters, along with their soldiers, mixed into the huge army and waited for an opportunity to kill the commander in the opponent's army. However, due to the low-level spellcasters, the spell power is not strong. In the face of hundreds of thousands of ordinary soldiers, I can handle it. But if I encounter tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers, a burst of arrows will be poured out wildly, and many low-level spellcasters will die in the hands of ordinary people."
The black-robed old man shook his head slightly, and there was a hint of regret on his face. As a spell caster, the black-robed old man, like most other spell casters, considered himself different from ordinary people and more noble than ordinary people.
And the caster died in the hands of ordinary people. In the eyes of the black-robed old man, this is the greatest sorrow of the caster!
But the fact is that some entry-level spellcasters, if they do not have defensive spells, face ordinary people with heavy crossbows, the spellcasters at this time are no different from ordinary people, and they are easily killed.
However, once there is a defensive spell, it is much stronger, but if it is faced with thousands of well-trained troops alone, it is also very dangerous, and some three-pole spellcasters will even be shot.
"Count Selin, open the city gate and let me go alone."
Merlin looked at the dense number of soldiers under the city, and suddenly said.
"Huh? Baron Merlin,
You said you were going out of town alone? That's tens of thousands of troops! "
Count Sailin's expression changed slightly. Although he also wanted to solve the current crisis, letting Merlin go out was almost like giving up his death in vain. This kind of meaningless death would not help the entire battle situation.
"Count Sailin is right. Mage Merlin, think about it. Although our spellcasters are powerful, spellcasters below the fourth level can still be consumed by ordinary people in numbers!"
The old man in black robe also persuaded Merlin, after all, in the "Slaughterhouse" war, it is not that the powerful caster of the three poles was killed by the huge army with almost endless crossbow arrows.
Merlin was noncommittal, and said calmly: "I said that I have to contend with tens of thousands of troops? I have the blast technique, and my speed is very fast. As long as I can resist the shooting of the crossbow, then I will have a chance to reach Longardi. Command, kill him in one fell swoop!"
After listening to Merlin's words, Earl Selin was also moved. Although Merlin's plan was very crazy, in his opinion, it was very difficult to succeed, but if it did succeed, once Longardi died, the army of Lebis would also be too. Don't attack yourself.
No matter how slim the hope is, it is a hope after all. Otherwise, if you want to defend the city just by relying on the mere city gate, it will be extremely difficult to defend Pugas City.
"This is indeed a hope, but..."
The black-robed old man wanted to say something else, but Merlin waved his hand abruptly, with a resolute look on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Count Sailin, open the city gate, don't worry, since I'm out, I'll save my life. Means, if there is really no chance, then I will come back, and then I will think of other ways."
Earl Selin nodded, looked at Merlin with a complicated look, and then whispered, "If Baron Merlin can succeed this time, it will be a great achievement. At that time, I can make the call and upgrade the title of Baron Merlin to Viscount. , Moreover, the father of the baron can also have the title of baron!"
Although the title in the Pugas city-state is only a matter of Count Selin, the viscount is still very rare, and, once successful, will make old Wilson a baron, this is a family, There are two nobles at the same time, which is very rare.
Suffice it to say that Count Selin attaches great importance to Merlin!
Merlin smiled slightly and didn't say anything. Although he didn't care about the title, it would be a great honor if he could add a viscount to the Wilson family, and also have the title of baron at the same time.
After all, titles are hereditary. If they have two titles, the Wilson family's position in the entire Pugas city-state will truly become unbreakable!
"Open the gates!"
With the order of Earl Sailin, the huge city gate slowly opened, and Merlin's figure flashed, and he left Pugas City directly.
The Counts of Longardi are now complacent, they have just defeated a shock from the city of Pogas, and now the morale is strong and the situation is very favorable for them.
"Lord Count, look, the city gate is open again?"
Suddenly, a sharp-eyed knight saw the gate of Pugas City and slowly opened it again.
The Count of Longardi was suddenly refreshed, and although it seemed that he had the upper hand now, he could not let his guard down until the last moment.
Seeing that the city gate was opened again, Longardi was also puzzled, and murmured in a low voice: "The city gate is opened again, do they want to attack again?"
Soon, everyone on the battlefield could see clearly, and only one person walked out from the city gate.
"one person?"
Count Longardi's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he couldn't believe it.
"Huh? This person has elemental fluctuations. He is a spellcaster. Could it be Merlin?"
Mage Hegar, who was beside Count Longardi, immediately thought of Merlin in Pugas. However, even Mage Hegar, it is difficult to imagine that an entry-level spellcaster would dare to fight against tens of thousands of well-trained troops alone.
"Haha, one person wants to deal with my tens of thousands of troops? It's really stupid, even if he is really Merlin and has really entered the Dark Spirit Realm, but such a arrogant and stupid person, what's so scary?"
Longardi also seemed to be provoked by Merlin's behavior. He wanted to fight against tens of thousands of troops alone? Unless it is a powerful spellcaster above the fourth level, who can destroy the military fortresses alone, it is impossible at all.
"Perhaps, he didn't want to confront tens of thousands of troops head-on, his goal was Lord Count!"
Mage Hegar was keenly aware of the violent wind element emerging from Merlin, and he immediately guessed Merlin's intentions.
"Huh? To deal with me? Hmph, even if he does succeed in front of me, isn't there still Mage Hegar? This saves all the Mages from going to Pogas City to find him!"
Earl Longardi is very confident in Mage Hegar, so even if he knows Merlin's purpose, he does not have a trace of worry, but looks at Merlin with interest. How did he break through the blockade of tens of thousands of troops?
"Swish".
As soon as Merlin walked out of the city gate, violent wind element fluctuations immediately appeared on his body, and he also noticed that there seemed to be a few particularly powerful mental powers that were constantly scanning himself, it should be the one beside Longardi. Spellcaster.
"Blast Technique!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Merlin immediately released the blast technique. Suddenly, his speed soared and he frantically ran towards Count Longardi's headquarters.
"shoot!"
Seeing that Merlin was running wildly, the tens of thousands of troops would naturally not be indifferent, so he gave an order, and immediately, the arrows poured down like rain, almost thousands of arrows shot at Merlin.
Merlin's expression changed slightly. These thousands of arrows gave him a feeling of extreme danger. Sure enough, it was easy for Merlin to kill these mortals, even if they were powerful elemental swordsmen. .
However, once they are united and use tools, their lethality will be terrifying.
"Earth Guardian!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Merlin frantically released the Earth Guardian. After releasing it more than a dozen times in a row, a dozen solid earth walls appeared in front of him, including an enhanced version of the Earth Guardian. Despite being a well-trained soldier, Merlin didn't dare to let his guard down.
"Crack click".
Soon, thousands of arrows fell, and the guardian of the earth in front of Merlin collapsed in an instant, one after another, even the enhanced version of the guardian of the earth didn't seem to last long.
There was a hint of madness on Merlin's face, the wind element on his body suddenly increased, and the speed once again rose to a terrifying level.
This was an enhanced version of the blast technique that Merlin unleashed. With the sudden acceleration, Merlin dashed forward for a long time without having to face thousands of terrifying arrows.
With so many arrows, even if Merlin kept releasing the Earth Guardian, he might not be able to support it, unless he released the first-level Spell Guardian Monument that he built not long ago, maybe he could resist it a little.
However, Merlin didn't want to reveal that he had a stele of guardianship so easily. After all, after passing through the defense line of tens of thousands of people, he had to face many spellcasters recruited by Count Longardi.
"It's so fast!"
After Merlin released the enhanced version of the blast spell, the speed was one to two times faster, and even those heavy crossbowmen were a little confused. If it was Merlin's speed before, they could still aim a little and shoot arrows.
However, with Merlin's current speed, they couldn't aim at all, and Merlin's path forward was not a predetermined one, but a twisting one, with no rules to follow at all.
Therefore, they could only watch as Merlin broke through the blockade of tens of thousands of people and gradually approached Count Longardi.
"Success!"
On the city wall of Pugas, seeing that Merlin held up the first wave of the attack of tens of thousands of troops, and then the speed increased greatly, breaking the blockade of tens of thousands of people, Count Sailin couldn't help shouting excitedly. sound.
"Breaking the blockade is only the first step! After all, Mage Merlin is very fast, and it is relatively easy to break through the blockade, but next, he will have to face many spellcasters recruited by Longardi, and that is the key. An important step!"
The black-robed old man said in a deep voice that his eyes were always on Merlin. Breaking through the blockade was only the first step. The most important thing was to defeat some of the spellcasters that Longardi had recruited.
The other spellcasters, the black-robed old man was not worried, but the first-level spellcaster Longardi recruited made the black-robed old man very apprehensive. He only knew that Merlin was only an entry-level spellcaster, even though he entered the dark spirit. Domain, but it has only been less than a year, and he does not know whether Merlin is the opponent of the opponent's first-level spellcaster.
"Whether it's successful or not, you have to come back safely!"
No one noticed that Old Wilson had quietly come to the city wall, watching Merlin's dashing figure, a trace of worry appeared on his face.
