Heart of the Castle

Chapter 119 The Victory of Bluff

Demons are very selfish in nature. If human troops were to retreat, no one would stay behind.It may be a veteran who is seriously wounded, or a knight who would rather die with a sword for the sake of honor, or it may be a squire who stayed behind to follow the knight he served.

However, when the horned demon warlord Baipa said to retreat, all the demons turned around and ran like crazy, without paying attention to the danger of being killed by humans from behind after the formation completely collapsed.In the hearts of most demons, whether they can outrun those around them is the only condition to ensure that they will not be chased and killed.

It's strange that the elite human reinforcements didn't actively pursue them, except that the archers sent out two rounds of arrow rain again, shooting and killing the last dozen or so little devils, whether it was the knights on horses It's still a phalanx of spears, and they don't have the slightest intention to follow and kill.The figures holding longbows who appeared on the hill were even more relieved, and several of them even collapsed to the ground immediately, unable to get up after saying anything.

The two magicians at the end quickly rushed up and joined the spear phalanx. The tall magician couldn't help laughing excitedly just as he walked into the spear phalanx.

"Haha, Lord Li Wei, your plan was very successful, those demons escaped with their tails between their legs!"

The shorter magician shook his head slightly, and took off the hood on his head, revealing the young face of the knight servant Li Wei.However, this face was covered with dripping sweat. Considering the current chilly weather, it was definitely not caused by the heavy robes.

"Mr. Donner, I feel that this plan is too risky. If it weren't for the fact that those demons were not united enough, whether it was the incinerators on the hill who risked launching fireballs, or the horned demons and little demons rushing forward, they would have given us a lot of trouble." Bring a disaster." Li Wei wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said with some fear.

Three knights on war horses made a big circle from another direction and joined the phalanx of spears. From a close look, it was easy to see why they had no desire to chase down the demon army.

Although it looks like three knights in full armor, two of them are actually crusader swordsmen in disguise. This kind of alchemy warrior belongs to the absolute king of ground warfare. When disguised as a knight, he even had to tie himself to the above the saddle.Only the female knight, Ms. Frasier, has the riding skills that are worthy of her status. She can fight with a sword while riding a horse.However, if she were to go after the demon army alone, it would easily arouse the suspicion of the cunning demons, and it might not be worth the loss.

Those figures on the hill also came down one after another. The tall and thin figure leading these people was Sir Grace, the sniper archer. In fact, he was the only one responsible for the terrifying silver light shot from this direction.In order to ensure that the rain of arrows facing the demons would be denser, Sir Grace sent all the alchemy warriors and archers to support the pike phalanx. Those burners on the hills.

Sir Grace's adventure might well have come to a disastrous end had not the cunning and suspicious Infernal Flame Grudge commanded by the Burner's forces.Several incinerators fired a salvo of fireballs, which must have been impossible for Sir Grace to stop with a silver fir longbow. Besides the alchemy warriors and pikemen in the front row of the pike phalanx, there were militiamen wearing the same style of coats at the back. If they encounter a fireball attack, not to mention heavy casualties, it will immediately cause the formation to collapse.

The elite troops can't withstand a round of blows. This situation will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the devil, which will completely bankrupt Li Wei's plan.At that time, rescuing the mine village will naturally become an impossible task, and the safety of Li Wei and others will also be seriously threatened.

Under Li Wei's reminder, several people who had thought about this clearly showed expressions of fear.The plan just now had so many mistakes and loopholes, any loophole discovered would lead to the failure of the entire plan.Fortunately, the devil made a bigger mistake. As the leader of the whole army, the purgatory flame demon Grucci misjudged the situation and escaped first; and the howling horned demon as a means of surprise attack chose the wrong target, and was first attacked by Donner's magic ring. It was shot down from the air, and then turned into a charred corpse on the spot under Li Wei's fireball technique.

The reason why the howling horned devil's super fire resistance ability did not work is that the fireball technique performed by Li Wei is different from ordinary magic flames. The fireball technique promoted by alchemy is actually not pure fire. It is not an aggregate of elements, but mixed with the power of faith.This is also the reason why Glucci, the purgatory flame demon, chose to flee immediately after he noticed it, because it regarded Li Wei, who issued this fireball technique and dressed as a magician, as a magister who concealed his identity.

Generally speaking, only after the magician breaks through the 11th level difficulty and comprehends the origin of magic, will he add a trace of original power to the magic he casts to form a powerful special magic.Only at this time can a magician be called a magister. When the Purgatory Flame Demon found out that he might need to face a magister, it was good not to scare him off on the spot.

You know, that is a terrifying character that even Lord Demon Lord dare not say that he will win!

Seeing the backs of the retreating demon army gradually disappearing into the dense forest, the guards of Mining Pit Village stopped chasing them. These soldiers who had fought bloody battles for several days were already extremely tired, and almost staggered when they stopped Got up, and even a few people fell to the ground.

A man in a red coat staggered over. When he got close, Li Wei realized that it was not the usual red, but blood soaked his armor.This man didn't look very old, and he was so tired that he could hardly stand still. However, he still straightened his body in front of Li Wei and others, hit his chest with his fist, and said loudly: "The current garrison captain of Mine Pit Village Girard, I am willing to serve you lords! May I ask, are your lords the reinforcements sent by Viscount Lane's castle?"

"Gillard, why is it you? This armor should be..." Miss Fraser got off her horse, her voice trembled suddenly, as if she had a foreboding.

Girard turned his head to one side, and did not immediately answer Miss Frasier's question. A brief silence shrouded the crowd like a dark cloud.Li Wei, Donner, and Grace were all silent, looking at Fleischer with a sad expression on his face.

"Master Grievous Knight, shortly after you broke through and left, the demon army launched a particularly violent attack. In addition to the cannon fodder troops in the front, the demon army also sent elite troops to attack from behind. The defense line behind the village was not defended. , Mr. Martin Knight personally led the team to fight back, and then drove the demon army out of the village again. Mr. Martin fought extraordinarily bravely, and personally killed no less than 10 demons, but the insidious demons ambushed a few howling horned demons to attack ..."

Girard paused, bowed to Li Wei and Donna, and then continued: "It's the kind of monster that was killed by the two master magicians. They swooped in from the air. Master Martin was caught off guard and was seriously injured on the spot... ..."
