The Amber Sword

Act 19 The Battle for the Lumber Camp (6)

When the mercenaries found that the caveman hit their raised shields heavily, there was no sound at all. The huge force was silent and suddenly lifted the people in the front row up and fell to the back row, but the whole process was like It was a pantomime—silence.

Everyone was stunned.

Jutta turned around, her eye-catching long flaming hair flicked among the crowd. In the eyes of the female mercenary leader, Brando was lowering his hand on the battlefield on the other side:

At that moment, six ten-foot silence spells accurately covered the entire front line of the battlefield——

The cavemen immediately fell into boundless panic. After losing their ability to judge the sound, these creatures from the Qiaogendigang underground were like a complete 'blind man' - just like when a person loses awareness of the surrounding world in an instant. of all perceptions.

Its first reaction was either to subconsciously retreat, or to swing its spear forward in a futile attempt to protect itself.

Because this confusion quickly spread among the cavemen.

So the cavemen in the front row collided with the cavemen in the back row, or were regarded as enemies by their own people. They ran around in panic, or fought with their own people. Although many human mercenaries were involved in this chaos, most of the mercenaries had their hands free. After a brief moment of confusion, they immediately discovered:

Victory seemed close at hand.

So that's it, this is the only thought that flashed through everyone's mind at this moment.

And Brando was throwing away the soul crystal that had run out of energy in his hand - the young lord glanced here, as if he had already anticipated the outcome of the battle.

"That's it." Seeing the look on the young noble's face, Fern suddenly realized.

"These idiots actually have this weakness." Kerenthia responded calmly on the side.

The silver-haired middle-aged man kept a close eye on the situation on the front line and immediately ordered the flag to be changed. The red striped flag representing the charge was flying high on the battlefield at the moment. The mercenaries at the front did not need to hear the order. They only needed to see this eye-catching flag to understand what to do next.

The warriors threw away the large shields in their hands, and then drew their weapons from underneath - a moment ago they were defenders, but now they were switching positions - it was like an invisible wave swept across the battlefield, and the mercenaries began to counterattack.

The blind cavemen are unable to stop the well-organized human attack. Although they are extremely powerful,

But it's in vain if you can't hit the enemy. What's more, in the "darkness", they have a panic instinct in their hearts, which causes them to start to retreat in panic as soon as they are attacked.

Therefore, the front line of the cavemen began to collapse in the chaos, but the caveman warriors supervising the battle at the rear were unable to prevent all this from happening; and in their perception, the scope of the silence spell was like a The black hole swallows up all sound feedback.

All members of the same race who entered the black hole were defeated in an instant. The retreat of nearly a hundred cavemen on the front line caused the entire caveman army to waver. Even though those cavemen exited the range of the silence spell, hundreds of similar species running around them made them unwilling to stay. At first it was just the cavemen, but then the caveman warriors who realized that the situation was over also began to turn around, and then the bugbears—— Eventually the flight turned into a rout.

But in fact, the real battle situation is not so one-sided.

In the first round of attacks by the mercenaries, no more than twenty cavemen fell. Their bodies lay sparsely on the river beach, allowing the river water to soak them. But at this moment, the cave dwellers had no intention of looking back but were counting their own casualties. They only obeyed the fear in their hearts, and they screamed and ran towards the other end of the river beach. There was no formation or organization, just like a plate of loose sand. Pushing each other forward.

Many cavemen were trampled to death by their own race, leaving corpses all along the way.

The mercenaries changed their formation after breaking out of the silence range. Under Juta's command, they skillfully divided into three arrows and began to drive the escaping cavemen forward. This fighting method of chasing ducks is something most people like to see. Although they almost didn't believe that all this really happened, the contrast on the battlefield changed completely.

As Brando said, this is just a warm-up battle.

And on the other side, at the edge of the forest.

The remaining thirty or so cavemen are currently being surrounded by Tiger Bird's cavalry. When all three bugbears were killed by Brando, the cavemen had to face two silver-level archangels and nearly double the number of humans. The result of the battle was clear at a glance.

Brando no longer needed to look. He turned around and saw the mercenaries chasing the scattered cavemen across the river at a constant speed. The young man snorted softly, thinking that these guys were still cautious until now. They seemed to be wary of the dozens of cavemen left in the lumber camp.

He estimated the speed. At this speed, the cavemen would definitely escape into the lumberyard, which made him frown. Although each of these cavemen seemed to be in dire straits, in fact, the previous battle had not broken their bones at all. Less than a quarter of the cavemen's casualties were lost, and not a single bugbear was killed.

If they were allowed to escape, it would be a waste of time.

But fortunately, when his eyes turned to the forest farther on the other side of the river, he finally saw that familiar figure there.

The red-haired ponytail looked like a beautiful sight as she moved swiftly through the woods. That was Akane——

In fact, not only Brando, but Kerenthia, Juta and Fern all discovered the changes on the other side at this moment. Only then did they discover that the red-haired girl who had never appeared had bypassed somewhere at some point. river. The girl rode on a silver-white magic horse, one person at a time, holding a halberd in one hand, and came out of the forest with a long arc of electricity.

It was obvious that her target was the lumber camp.

But before that, she stopped in the route of the caveman army's retreat——

"Get out of the way!" Yuta was stunned. She didn't know why her heart tightened slightly when she saw the red-haired girl who single-handedly blocked hundreds of cavemen; there were hundreds of cavemen, including some who fled. The survival instinct of bugbears is likely to arouse the ferocity of these creatures. Even the first-level gold level may not be able to escape unscathed in such a situation, not to mention that if the opponent is forced to turn around, then the previous victory can be said to be The success fell short.

But Akane remained motionless, as if she hadn't heard.

The next moment, countless cyan light spots appeared in the forest behind her - those were Sylph Spiders. Every mercenary present now recognizes these little things under Brando's command, and they also know how powerful those things are.

Jutta choked.

The Sylph Spiders immediately began to attack. Under Brando's command, they began to systematically force the cavemen to turn - every time a beam of light flashed, a caveman fell to the ground. The silver-level attack power made it impossible for the cavemen to resist, but they soon discovered that the right side of the team seemed to be the least vulnerable to attack.

Then everything happened naturally. When the remaining twenty or so sylph spiders guided the holy sword to attack in one round, the already frightened cave dwellers could only scream and flee from the other direction into the forest. middle.

The red-haired girl stood motionless among these cavemen, but no one dared to attack her. They could only avoid her side and flow into the other side like water flowing through a rock.

But Akane didn't attack. She waited until the back of the last caveman disappeared into the forest, then looked back at the mercenary who caught up from behind. Then she pulled up the magic reins and asked the silver war horse to stop and cross. Get over.

Akane smiled slightly as her amber eyes reflected the sight of the cavemen in the lumberyard hurriedly closing the gate built on the wooden fence. A strong look flashed in her eyes, and then the girl raised her halberd and swung it forward.

There was a loud bang, and everyone saw that the lumberyard's gate was raised high, and then fell apart in mid-air.

"It's really troublesome," Antitina frowned and complained as she watched the scene. "She broke the door, and we have to find someone to repair it after a while. Really, we don't think about it carefully." After the battle, the noble daughter She walked out of the woods. The previous battle had little impact on her. In other words, this noble lady was actually used to this kind of life.

"Let her go." Brando smiled. He raised his head and looked at the golden light spots flying towards him. There are approximately more than 10,000 experience points, which is enough to push the experience bar of his mercenaries forward by a small space - about more than one tenth.

Antitina stopped answering after listening to Brando's words. She watched the mercenaries under the leadership of Akane swarm in from the gap to the east of the lumberyard. The remaining cavemen inside were definitely not the mercenaries and Akane. Opponent, the battle is decided.

"It's unimaginable," the noble lady said softly: "These creatures from the ground can be so weak against certain magic. Logically speaking, they should be very aware of their own weaknesses."

"You can't say that." At this time, Huque came over from the other side after cleaning up the battlefield and said, "Miss Antitina."

Antitina turned around, a look of doubt flashing in her eyes.

"The cavemen are not a single organization in Jorgendigon," Brando replied. "Jorgendigon is like a huge country. Different creatures make up this underground country. Apart from bugbears, the cavemen fight side by side. In addition, there are harpy witches and kobold shamans, not to mention the cavemen themselves also have witch doctors - but you may not be able to find one in such a small tribe."

"So when it comes to dealing with magic, they are naturally inferior to us."

"so little?"

"Based on the fact that one mage is born out of a thousand people, this ratio is not small." Brando replied.

Antitina nodded, lowered her head and thought for a while: "I just didn't expect that there is such a country underground in Qiaogendigang, which is completely different from what I knew from the books. Although I also know about cavemen, I always thought that Below is a wild land beyond the reach of civilization, and the world turns out to be so wonderful."

Brando smiled. Antitina lives in the Cruz cultural system where humans are the main body. It is normal to have such a wrong understanding. From a player's perspective, the world is unimaginably huge.

"But the cavemen are so fierce," the noble daughter frowned, "Compared to Madara's skeleton soldiers, they are much more powerful. It turns out that we still have such a threat underground."

"One of the characteristics of Qorgendigang's creatures is their outstanding individual strength, which is related to the environment they live in." Brando shook his head. He looked in the direction of the lumberyard and sighed, "But you think cavemen are fierce, but It’s because Eruin is too weak—if the Cruz people were here, I’m afraid they wouldn’t say such things.”
