Chapter 29

Marcus looked up at orcs who were in front and saw Xiao Yu standing on the wall..

“Are you the leader who has led these orcs to attack me camp?” Marcus calmed down and asked in a cold tone.

Xiao Yu raised his chin and gently coughed. He replied: "Yes. I am Xiao Yu the lord of the territory. You have made a camp in my territory and this is enough of a reason to kill you all! Now, I’ll give you a minute to kneel down and surrender. Otherwise, you will all become food to my warriors."

“Lion town’s lord? I don’t even care about the emperor of the Sky Lion Dynasty! Do you think that you will be able to beat us with just a group of orcs? What a joke! I will cut off heads of few orcs and use them as ornament!” Marcus snorted. He was shocked because of the sudden attack. However, he was completely calm and fearlessly facing Xiao Yu’s orc warriors.

It was an old tradition to cut the head of an orc. Many children from the n.o.ble families would go to mountains to kill an orc and hang its head on the wall of their house as a decoration. This demonstrated their courage to the outsiders and win their respect.

Many people still traveled to the mountains to kill orcs to get glory and status. However, orcs had gone extinct and very few people were able to find one.

The other bandits also calmed down after their leader came over. More than 2000 bandits formed a basic formation about 100 meters away from the gates.

Bandits were able to deal with fires and flames at the rear of the camp. From this rapid reaction it was possible to see that this gang of bandits were not inferior to a regular army. Nevertheless, it didn’t mean that they were equal to grunts, elves and dwarves in the battlefield. More than 600 bandits died in the moments of chaos. They hadn’t noticed this yet because of the appearance of the orcs

Xiao Yu continued: “Do you think that you will be able to beat my army of orcs? Keep dreaming! I am sure that I’ll be able to kill all of you so I am here! By the way, I am a man and I was born of a mother. A beast is born of its own mother. I’m looking at you and see that you are uglier than even the orcs! Are you result of a man and a beast?"

“Ah!!!…. You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Marcus turned furious when he heard Xiao Yu’s abuse. He waved: "Soldiers with shield go in front! Kill the orcs and leave that b.a.s.t.a.r.d to me!"

Marcus was almost two meters tall and had a big build. He wasn’t inferior to a grunt. He had bald and rough face with lots of scars. He was ugly. Xiao Yu’s intention was to make him angry to begin with. It was a psychological tactic used by Xiao Yu. He was already occupying best terrain in the field and had to make the enemy to attack one way or other.

So he used this petty trick to anger the leader of the enemy. If the enemy side calmed down and see that the attacking Xiao Yu was a disadvantage then they may have changed their minds and stay in defense.

He didn’t want them to see through his own formation otherwise he was going to lose.

Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes and laughed when he saw the trick work.

Kill~~

Argh~~

Both sides shouted and roared to boost their morale. Although the number of orcs was much less than the enemy but the echo of their roars was much stronger.

Marcus pulled out his sword. A yellow battle energy began to wrap around the sword. He rushed out and jumped up towards the wall. Marcus’s aim was to kill Xiao Yu.

To capture the thieves, you had to capture the king of the thieves first. Marcus understood this strategy.

But he found out that another strong battle energy slashed towards him.

Marcus was surprised as he waved his sword to block the attack.

Boom~

Two battle energies collided and a loud noise echoed because of the impact. Both men backed out. Marcus stood still as he looked at his enemy. It was an orc who was as tall as 2.5 or 2.6 meters and holding a giant sword.

“A strong orc warriors… Since when beasts can cultivate battle energy?” Marcus was slightly surprised. The humans were different from beasts as they could cultivate battle energy and use magic.

It was naturally Grom who had stopped Marcus. Grom’s Omnislash had reached level 4.

Marcus was a second-rank warrior. Grom was inferior to Marcus in strength. However, Grom’s skills were able to make him parry with Marcus on par.

“I will kill this orc and use its skull to drink wine… It will highlight my glory!” Marcus gestured to his soldiers to attack. As a second-rank warrior Marcus felt that Grom was strong but he was still confident that he would be able to kill the orc.

In addition to Marcus there were few vice-leaders in the camp who were warriors that reached the late stage of the first-rank.

At the same time, archmage who was standing next to Xiao Yu joined the battle.

Antonidas whispered the spell and a large ice cone appeared on top of bandits. The icicle began to smash down and kill the bandits.

Bandits were surprised to see that Xiao Yu had a mage by him but they weren’t shocked. It wasn’t rare for a territory to have a mage. Even they had a mage in their camp!

Moreover, the mage were strong in long range attacks. But it was easily to kill them in close combat.

The vice-leaders couldn’t directly jump over the wall so they tried to rush towards the stone steps and go up.

But the bandits found out that there were numerous invisible archers on the walls. The archers seemed to have stealth mode like the a.s.sa.s.sins! It was difficult to find the location of archers so they didn’t know how many in total were on top of the walls.

Normal bandits used shields and warriors used battle energy to block arrows.

Nevertheless, they found out that Xiao Yu’s side had another strong weapon. Bang~ Bang~… They were shooting something that bandits couldn’t see by the naked eye but it was very lethal.

One of the warriors was accidentally hit by the bullet. His calf was pierced through. This wound was at least ten times severe than an arrow wound and the pain was incredible. He felt as if his leg was broken.

The advantage of the riflemen was reflected. The powerful warriors could resist arrows but they couldn’t overpower bullets.

The riflemen were slow and had low accuracy. But the advantage they had over archers were the speed and power of the bullets.

Xiao Yu ordered riflemen to concentrate on enemy warriors who depended on battle energy to fight. Although their accuracy was low but if many riflemen concentrated on one warrior then at least a bullet would hit.

Bang~~ bang~

A warrior was. .h.i.t by several bullets and lost his life on the same instant. If it were arrows then he could rely on armor and battle energy. This way the wounds wouldn’t be fatal but he couldn’t prevent a bullet.

The threat of archers and magician was strong as the warriors couldn’t get to the wall.

Countless arrows were shot and grunts used the giant axes to kill the normal bandits.

“They are way too strong! Mobilize our magician and break through their formation!” One of the vices shouted out.

Mages were like artillery in this era. A magician could break through a formation where an army couldn’t even pa.s.s.

The bandit mage quickly rushed over. In fact, he wasn’t far away but was waiting for the right opportunity to use his spell.

Dozens of bandits used shields to protect mage while he began to whisper the spell. Mage feared that the powerful archers from Xiao Yu’s side would kill him.

There was quite a distance between elf archers and the enemy mage. Moreover, because of shields the enemy mage wasn’t worried about his own health. But he wasn’t aware that xiao Yu had Tyrande and riflemen.

Bang~

Arrow and bullets flashed past. At least two bandits who were using shields to protect the mage died on spot. The mage wasn’t able to release the spell and was shot dead.

“A small time mage was courting death and he got what he wanted." Xiao Yu was proud of Tyrande’s and riflemen’s performance.

Although the accuracy of firemen were low but when all of them aimed at the same place, one or two bullets would always. .h.i.t.

Xiao Yu decided to get machine guns or automatic rifles as soon as possible!
