YM778.TV Chapter 411 Armored
Is there another horde of Barbarians in that direction?
At this time, a messenger came to them informing them of terrible news. The Black Magic Organization is attacking the northern side of the city….
They have to deal with the Barbarians as quickly as possible so help Thyrus and the others at the northern gate!
"Ugh! There are too many barbarians… There\'s no way we can kill them quickly…" Brycen grunted.
He can\'t use his Tier 5 Mana Arts again for some time so killing one Barbarian will take a bit of his mana. There are still thousands of them outside. Perhaps eight thousand or more so it will not be easy.
He can also tell that only about 600 Mana Practitioners are guarding the wall and most of them are only Master Magicians and Adept Mages. As for Archmage or Archknights, there were only about ten of them.
The only good thing about it is that they have plenty of top-quality weapons that will compensate for their lack of numbers.
It may not be easy to stop the horde of barbarians, but it\'s definitely possible if they have plenty of time to spare.
"There is no other choice… Let\'s just kill them as fast as we can."
Brycen said as he looked at Lar and Ross who had already raised their weapons… It seems that they are ready to jump down the wall and face the barbarians head-on once the artillery shells were used up.
The guards\' Magic Tools that can shoot fireball and others offensive mana arts weren\'t unlimited after all. Their durability and the Practitioners\' mana capacity must be considered as well.
Furthermore, it is not a good thing to spend all their mana using long-range attacks since the Barbarians\' bodies are tough and possess high magic resistance.
Long-range Mana Arts is only good for weakening them, slowing their movement, or ensuring that they won\'t be able to reach the city gate with full health.
Killing them with these techniques would be very difficult… Using swords and blades was still the most effective killing method to end their lives.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After a while, the firing rate of the artillery guns started slowing down as the mana shells are about to be used up.
Nevertheless, these bombardments were able to change the terrain and kill some barbarians. As for the number of injured, half of them should\'ve suffered some minor injuries and a few with critical injuries…
It was a shame the Artillery Shells weren\'t so easy to make and they can\'t fire them indefinitely. After all, each shell requires a Beast Core and various special materials that need to be imported from the Alchemist Union which is quite far from Vera City.
Boom!
The last bombardment was completed as the Barbarians struggled to move forward. They were weakened physically and their minds are also being disrupted by the Mind-Splitting Formation.
Although they weren\'t as vulnerable as the Totemic Barbarians when it comes to mental attacks, they are still being affected and they needed to concentrate in order to resist it.
At this point, the soldiers are waiting for Lar\'s command to attack…
"Hold on!" Lar shouted as he observed the field and confirmed that the terrain has cooled down from the fire Mana Arts that was used a while ago…
"Now!"
As soon as he made this signal, the soldiers started jumping down as they used the basic attribute of their boots and basic movement technique to land safely before they charged towards the Barbarians…
Although their size is smaller than their enemies, they did not falter or show any hint of being intimidated at all.
Lar and Ross, two of the five Grand Knights of the Battalion, used their skills to empower the surrounding soldiers.
Resplendent Vigor!
Imperious Will!
The combined abilities increased the knights\' strength by more than 10% and speed by 15%!
"Kill!"
They shouted filled with rage.
Most of the people fighting right now are from the Tudor Kingdom. These Barbarians had occupied most of the kingdom and captured them to be used as free laborers or slaves in this land.
They\'ve lost against them before because they weren\'t united in fighting them and the Totemic Barbarians are just too strong.
Now that those Totemic ones have been dealt with, they are confident that they can kill the remaining barbarians.
Slash! Slash! Slash!
The heavily injured barbarians in front were easily killed. They were the ones who had received numerous injuries from the bombardment and were barely able to stand up…
Nevertheless, their thick muscles and bronze skins were still difficult to cut. The knights have to be really serious when cutting them and imbue a lot of strength to be successful.
"They\'re weakened… Target their feet and make them kneel so you can cut their heads off easily!"
No matter what, their necks are still softer so stabbing their throats or slicing their necks is still the fastest way to kill them.
Shane and Brycen couldn\'t help but smile after seeing the smooth battle techniques of the soldiers. They seem to have been trained really well for this situation.
Although most of them are only Magic Knights, they have decent movement skills and their swords are really sharp… They were able to execute complicated sword techniques and blood couldn\'t even be seen from their blades.
"Good! We\'ll weaken the others for you!"
"Just charge forward!"
The two Grand Magus immediately know what they have to do to coordinate with Magic Knights… They only have to weaken the Barbarians!
Because of this, they would have plenty of mana to spare… Fighting in a group is really a lot easier than fighting alone.
"Gahaha! Arrogant humans!" Suddenly, amid the horde of Barbarians, a huge and almost red barbarian wearing an armor and axe, appeared out of nowhere.
None of them noticed him a while ago!
Furthermore, this barbarian is emitting an aura that surpasses the combined aura of their five Grand Knights!
"It\'s just an armored Totemic Barbarian! Don\'t fear him!"
