Dear Broom Knight
#477 - Bat Attack
Lori's only requirement for his subordinates was that they fulfill their responsibilities.
As for things outside of their responsibilities, it would be best if they could do them, but he wouldn't blame them if they couldn't.
Having two people who could do everything well, handling both big and small matters, was already quite good.
Did he really expect everyone to have the ability to be a CEO?
"Valera, you can't demand others to have your abilities, that's too much," Lori said, smiling to appease her.
Valera blinked, understood the praise in her lord's words, and happily sat back down.
Lady Yagris looked at her son with a smile… Lori was a natural-born manager.
Although Lady Yagris didn't have such a person under her command, she had seen how others in the army raised them.
That kind of terrible consumption… Lady Yagris felt that she would be bankrupted if it were her.
Wasn't Lori's nurturing of Valera equally costly!
Resources were the smallest price to pay.
Many people were unwilling to gamble on this luck.
After all, even with the greatest certainty, there was still the possibility of backlash.
Lady Yagris didn't say anything about these matters because Valera's past and future were intertwined enough with Lori… Even Mikra, the great banyan tree, was just as respectful to Lori.
But if it were someone else, no matter how outstanding, she wouldn't let Lori offend the Earth Church.
It wasn't worth doing things that weren't worth it.
Lady Yagris was a little worried at first that Lori was just being willful as he had been in the past.
Losing some resources, some money, or even offending powerful forces, didn't matter.
Yagris was willing to face all of this with Lori.
But what about the hurt heart?
In Lady Yagris's opinion, her son had a heart of gold.
Therefore, she was very worried that Lori would become decadent because he had given too much and received betrayal in return.
After all, Lori was really too good to his recognized friends.
However, Yagris couldn't interfere with Lori's decision before it happened.
She could only observe silently from the side.
However, after seeing Lori's understated handling methods, all her worries dissipated.
Her son was really excellent.
Gently patting the drowsy Lily, Lady Yagris nestled contentedly into the soft sofa.
"Do you need to track Leon and the others' situation?" Cheska asked with a serious face.
She wasn't interested in Valera and Charles's entanglement at all; Taylor was within her management scope.
"No need," Lori said after thinking for a while, "Let them be.
If something really happens… His Majesty Travis will take action."
If the White Dragon King did nothing, that would be the biggest problem.
Lori wouldn't care even more.
Anyway, the battlefield wasn't in his territory.
—
"Damn it!" Milian angrily swung the sword in his hand, taking the life of an enemy, but more enemies pounced on him, "Where did so many bats come from!"
"Hmm…" Yuri buried his head in a huge scroll, humming as if he was there or not.
"Stop blabbing," the bard Seven said with a grim face, "Kill one if you can."
"Seven, don't interrupt the sacred chant," Yuri instructed without raising his head.
In fact, a virtual scroll was floating above his head, and beams of white light were scanning every area of the battlefield from above.
The fact that they were able to hold out from encountering the enemy at dusk until the moon was high in the sky was all thanks to the spiritual power and mana replenished by this white light.
Leon looked up: "Bats are nocturnal creatures, it will be fine at dawn."
"Dawn… There are still at least three hours!" The knight standing with him, holding up a shield, wailed.
"Stop wailing, be careful!" Seven said with a cold face, "This thing is poisonous!"
"Why do so many bats rush out after those people die!" Milian muttered with great dissatisfaction, "I knew I wouldn't have killed them."
"Are you stupid?" Seven said fiercely, "Even if we didn't kill them, those people wouldn't have survived.
Those are sacrifices!"
"Um… that's right," Yuri patted the scroll, "Try this!"
He reached out and pulled back his spell scroll: "Leon, ten minutes!"
Leon nodded steadily: "No problem, I've been saving my ultimate move!"
Then he immediately roared: "Left three, right four, fill the gap!
Prepare the shield wall!
Milian, get ready!"
Their position was located under a huge rock protruding from the bottom of a cliff.
They had created a blocking area on the left and right sides using carriages and stones.
Although some bats would occasionally sneak in, there was still a barrier after all, and the two swordsmen were able to deal with them relatively easily.
Yuri and Seven, as well as the two young apprentices they brought, were not too nervous, and casting spells was still relatively easy.
But the knights standing at the front were a bit difficult… Those bats were almost endless and very crazy.
Leon, with three great knights, was the main support, and had not retreated to rest.
The dozen or so knights below level 10 couldn't do it, and they could only take turns to support.
Every time they alternated, several bats would rush in.
Fortunately, Seven arranged for two young apprentices to put protective shields on the knights who were changing positions, otherwise they would have been bitten by the bats long ago.
Although Leon brought a lot of universal antidote bought from the neighboring Qingfeng Territory, these bats were too strange, and no one wanted to try how poisonous their teeth were.
The three ninth-level knights and two seventh-level knights who had rested almost enough quickly came up to change positions.
When opening a shield wall, the smaller the strength gap between the knights, the better.
But the remaining two positions were actually inside the wall, just to help the shield wall connect to the wall, so it didn't matter if the level was lower.
Leon didn't look back at all, just counting in his heart: "Shield!"
With his low roar, the knights who had just stood in position quickly raised their shields.
The newest and most complete novels are available on Liu 9 Shu Ba, first!
The white light on Yuri's scroll disappeared at the same time.
The bats' attacks were obviously more fierce.
"As expected, someone is commanding," Milian frowned as he looked outside after killing the last bat that rushed in.
"A cowardly villain," another swordsman said in a deep voice.
Yuri began to chant.
Seven tilted his head and listened for a while, and a look of confusion slowly appeared on his face.
"Seven!" Milian was startled, "Don't be distracted!"
Seven immediately regained his senses, quickly replenished the sacred blessing before speaking: "The spell Yuri is chanting is not a magic rune!
After listening for a while, I just felt like I wanted to sleep."
"The teacher taught us some foreign languages," one of Yuri's students responded, "The teacher said that it couldn't be used before, but recently there seems to be some movement.
Moreover, it may be because no one knows it, the effect is obvious instead."
"Drug resistance theory?" Seven muttered, "Does magic also have resistance?"
At this stage, he also knew some news about outsiders.
The semi-divine artifact fragments were indeed a big trouble, but in fact, magic-based professionals with some ability were all looking for them.
After being qualified to come into contact with these things, Seven also obtained one.
In addition to helping him speed up his chanting and shorten his casting time, it also added several sacred spells.
Otherwise, Seven wouldn't be able to easily cast a series of shields with just a few notes.
Generally speaking, as long as it is a small fragment that has been reviewed by the temple, there is no problem.
Not all fragments are large enough to invade the human soul.
And the mental sea defense of magic-based professionals is relatively strong.
Even Rosalind's problem lies in the Rainwater Goddess, not the fragment itself.
Of course, after the Rainwater Goddess appeared, many people who were biased towards water and mental systems re-examined their artifact fragments.
Seven and the others didn't care.
The ones His Majesty Travis bestowed upon them were all sacred.
Yuri even suspected that the power of light in these sacred fragments did not really come from outside the world.
So this guy didn't hesitate to learn some of the special characters attached to the artifact fragments.
Seven had no interest in this at all, but he is now very curious: "What race's characters are so hypnotic?"
"Can you care about something serious?" Milian said dissatisfied, "Give me a speed boost if you have nothing to do!"
Seven ignored him.
He was now counting every drop of mana.
"Milian!" Another swordsman shouted, "Keep an eye out!
I'll rummage through the bag."
Milian quickly walked to the middle area, holding his long sword and listening carefully.
Long-term tacit understanding allowed them to understand each other's meaning without saying much.
Although the knights' shield wall barely connected the walls on both sides, the defensive power became lower and lower as it went further back.
However, the impact of the bats became stronger instead.
That swordsman usually liked to do some handwork, and was probably planning to find something to see if he could seal the wall more tightly.
"Huff… I can only try this." The swordsman took out a half-meter-high metal bucket, carefully opened it, took out a small brush and quickly brushed the wall.
It was a transparent adhesive.
"It would be nice if there were still iron plates," the swordsman said with a look of melancholy after finishing the painting.
After all, the plates they could take out, no matter what material, had already been stuffed into the wall.
"What's this?" Milian curiously approached, jumping around to kill the bats that had come in again.
"Don't touch it!" The swordsman shouted quickly, "Special adhesive from Qingfeng Territory."
Milian quickly retracted his hand: "What is it?
The one for sticking chicken coops?
The people of Earl Hamilton's territory were still very familiar with Qingfeng Territory's specialty.
Especially chicken coops and goose sheds.
