I Want To Be a Nobleman

Orcs are a race that ages very slowly. Although their life expectancy is similar to that of humans, they usually don’t change much between their 50s and 30s. If it weren’t for Harold’s excellent observation skills, he really wouldn’t be able to see Stiyl’s appearance. The change.

Even Stiyl, who is a legendary powerhouse and has already undergone a life-level transition, can get such a big improvement because of this leaf. If I can't eat it, I can live for at least ten years?

Harold felt a little distressed, but he was still young anyway, and he didn't care too much about such things. Being able to save Steele made him feel relieved. Steele was the most temperless and approachable person Harold had ever met. A legendary strong man is very suitable for cultivating feelings. Harold plans to learn skills from him in the future and ask how to break through and become a legend.

Harold turned into a field nurse and rescued Marcus and Steele successively. His subordinates fought bloody battles. Although the orcs suffered heavy casualties and their morale began to decline, their warlike and bloodthirsty nature and the influence of the abyss made them Still not afraid of death to fight Harold's troops.

Fortunately, the formation of the orcs was completely messed up. There was no leader in the group, and they couldn't use their full strength. Although Harold's troops were mostly miscellaneous militias, they could at least obey the command. The orcs under the city wall were already at a disadvantage. up.

"The crossbowmen retreat, switch weapons and start shooting!" After gaining the advantage, Lucius ordered the most elite crossbowmen to replace their melee weapons and shoot with crossbow bolts.

In addition to the system soldiers, Harold is most optimistic about the crossbowmen. Even the cavalry, which is known as the strongest unit, Harold doesn't care that much. In this magical world, the cavalry is really not that bad, and the camp of the orcs is not ordinary at all. Cavalry can be impulsive.

On the contrary, crossbowmen, a long-range unit that relies on weapons to increase their lethality, can make up for the disadvantages of the human race. As long as they have a strong crossbow and more training, they can also kill orcs if their strength and agility are not enough.

"Let the arrows!" The lethality of a well-made crossbow at close range is quite terrifying. After the orc army attacked the fortress, they threw down their shields and only relied on defensive armor to defend, even if they were strong and physically strong. The orc was also easily pierced through the body, and died on the spot after a few more hits.

It's a pity that the crossbow is complex in craftsmanship, easily damaged, and it is really difficult to mass-produce, otherwise it would not be so difficult to deal with the orcs.

With several rounds of volleys from hundreds of crossbowmen taking the lives of hundreds of orcs, the orcs who were already close to the limit of collapse finally couldn't bear it anymore, and some orcs began to evacuate from the fortress.

"Go all out, kill them, and follow me!" Seeing that the situation was clear, Harold began to show off his prestige, shouting very loudly, so that the enemies and us fighting on the city wall could be heard on both sides.

This is not purely for showing off, but more to make the morale of the friendly troops on the city wall higher and make those orcs lose confidence.

What Harold didn't expect was that his move was more useful than expected!

The orc chieftain on the city wall who knocked Stiear into the air was killing human nobles one by one, when he suddenly heard Harold's loud voice, he realized that his troops under the city wall had been routed and fled, and his colleagues were both wounded by the Balrog .

He himself was a little shocked, not to mention that the other orc soldiers gradually stopped attacking, the defenders were still at a disadvantage in general, the casualties were very serious, and no one in terms of high-end combat power could withstand the attack of the opponent's legendary strongman , did not dare to fight back, nervously waiting for the next move of the orcs.

The orcs were awakened by the exaggerated battle damage. When they came out of their hometown, there were more than 60,000 people in several tribes, but now less than 6,000 died.

During this invasion, the occupied cities were directly burned, and all the captives were slaughtered. So far, they have not received any other goods except to vent their excessively manic desires. What are they fighting for?

It is normal for the orcs to feel confused. Although they are a warlike race, they are not fearless of death and like to seek death. The purpose of the orcs' invasion of the South all the year round is to show their strength, expand their territory, and plunder wealth and population, not for meaningless killings.

The reason why the entire race was infected with an extremely strong tendency of brutal bloodthirsty this time was entirely because of the blessing of the abyss, which not only gave them strength, but also distorted their hearts.

"Chief, shall we continue to fight? Everyone in the tribe," a high-ranking general of the tribe asked the orc chief hesitantly.

The orc chief looked around. Many of the orcs' anger had dissipated. Their weapons were hanging on the ground half-carrying and half-supporting, without any momentum like before. The casualties of the alliance defenders who fought to the death still broke out no matter how heavy they were trying to survive. With infinite fighting spirit.

It is estimated that there will be no good results if we continue to fight. Moreover, do we really need to pay so much to attack other countries? At this moment, the orc chief recalled Stiyl's words in his heart, and couldn't help being a little touched.

".Let's retreat! My personal guards and I are in charge of the rear, you go to the rear to meet the wounded clansmen!" The orc chief raised the hammer and gave the order to retreat.

The Balrog's heavy blow just now broke a small area of ​​the city wall, and the orcs could leave there smoothly. The orcs, who had lost their fighting spirit, quickly left the battlefield without hesitation.

As for the pursuit of the defenders or Harold below the city wall to block or chase?

Don't make trouble, someone else's legendary powerhouse is still in full condition, and the injured Steele is very reluctant to defend, so he can't pose any real threat to the opponent.

Moreover, both the defenders and Harold's soldiers also suffered heavy casualties. Harold's troops initially had more than 9,000 people, and nearly 10,000 troops. Now less than half of them are dead, and the defenders are even more devastating. , It is estimated that only one-third of the troops with more than 100,000 troops are left.

Moreover, everyone was wounded and exhausted, all relying on will and belief to hold on. As early as the moment the orcs retreated, they completely lost their energy, and they didn't even have the strength to cheer and celebrate, let alone chase after them. Kill the orc army that still has a strong fighting power.

At the same time, the ruins under the city wall were suddenly lifted by the orc chief, and a scorched black figure exuded a faint aura. It was another legendary orc chief who was blown away by the lava fist.

The orc chief, who was in good condition, carried his colleagues on his back and left. The so-called severance seemed unnecessary. No one dared to chase after him. This battle cannot be said to be a victory for mankind.

In terms of casualties, the two sides are almost the same. From the perspective of the situation, none of the high-end powerhouses on the coalition side can deal with the orc chiefs. The terrain has also changed from a defensive battle with great advantages to a chaotic battle on the city wall. Many nobles have fled. In the end, the orcs couldn't hold back and retreated.

However, they defended the giant fortress, withstood the attack of the orcs, and contained the orcs' invasion. Judging from the results, they still achieved their goal, but the loss was a bit big!
