From the castle to the gate, the rotten gnolls who had been lured out by Loria happened to line up in a long line in the inner court.

    There is no better place to play with the scenery than this.

    The gnol-man mercenaries lying on the city wall were still waiting for Loria's signal, but the earth suddenly shook, and they looked at each other, thinking that maybe this was a signal?

    Ranran got up quietly, bared her head and looked down, only to see a deep ravine several meters wide and plowed out in the middle of the inner courtyard of the castle, and the number of rotten jackals was almost half, and the rest were lying on both sides of the ravine.

    "It's now, attack!"

    The little black and white female gnoll jumped first, followed by her companions, who stood up on the ramparts and shot at the inner court with their bows and arrows.

    The torches carried by the rotten gnolls provided a good sight for the mercenaries, and their raid immediately took away five rotten brutes lying on the ground, stunned by the terrible shelling magic that had been before.

    "Attack the scouts!" Vanilla, who was also hiding on the city wall, threw a small fireball down and immediately retracted her head, between the death pension of only ten silver coins, she didn't plan to fight hard, "Those big men are left to the magician, kill the scouts first!"

    Vanilla is right, the tall city wall is difficult to climb up for a while, and the best choice is to take out the long-range fire first...... Gnolls have an innate fear of being larger than their own kind, and they will subconsciously prioritize attacking the large rotten brutes.

    Thanks to Vanilla's reminder, these mercenaries who had worked for ten gold coins finally began to shoot at the little rotten scouts...... At the end of the stun caused by the water cannon magic in the scenery. The mercenaries had already shot nearly ten scouts.

    ……

    After disliking the summoning of the scenery, Loria sat down on the ground weakly, not because of the frequent use of atomization...... It is because of the effect of blood loss and poisoning.

    Vampires have a strong ability to heal themselves. Even deep wounds can quickly stop the bleeding, but when Loria notices, she realizes that her clothes are stained red with blood.

    The jackal's arrowhead is not only smeared with poison, but also made into a structure that is easy to bleed...... Conscious of her left hand reaching out to her right shoulder, she didn't even feel the pain when Loria pulled the arrow off - thanks to the poison that the rotten gnolls had smeared on the arrows.

    She struggled with her arms as she moved between the open gate and the gap between the walls...... Pulling out an arrow by yourself without any measures to stop the bleeding is a very dangerous move. Fortunately, because of her special physique, the wound on her shoulder quickly stopped bleeding.

    However, the arachnid has only just begun to attack.

     never want to do such a dangerous thing again. Loria thought that she would need to learn how to use the Mana Shield and the Ice Barrier.

    ……

    Faced with three times the enemy, the gnolls on the wall were quickly suppressed, and they noticed that the rotten gnolls under the wall had a commander - he was hiding behind. Constantly whipping his obscene subordinates with a long green whip.

    Natural Gnoll Shaman...... The mercenaries were growing timid, fearing their fellow casters, and if it weren't for their own troll priest and human mage, they might have fled.

    An old gnolll with two missing teeth was shot in the belly by a stray arrow, and the troll priest quickly dragged him behind, pulled out the arrow and performed a healing spell; He was hit in the face by a small fireball, and after a crackling sound, the flames of magic engulfed his head.

    "Okay. Go back to the fight. ”

    Troll Priest pulled a sticky green ointment from a cloth bag around his waist and applied it to the old gnoll's belly, pushing him back to the front line.

    The mercenaries, who were on high ground and supported by priests and mages, finally held on, and despite being outnumbered, they were on par with the rotten gnolls under the walls - the battle was stalemate, and it was difficult to say whether the outcome would be known.

    "Kill that rotten shaman!"

    Ranran, dodging the stray arrows, fell to the ground and shouted loudly, the magic of the Troll Priest could not be endless. Ememeth and Vanilla can't keep the rotten brutes from climbing the walls...... Get the edge faster.

    It's a pity that the Shaman Rotten Skin hides too far away, and the bow and arrow can't shoot that far accurately. They couldn't go around to the other side of the castle and attack...... The little female gnoll carefully bared her head and glared viciously at the rotting shaman.

    Then she saw half of the shining blade emerge from the stomach of the rotten shaman, Rana was startled, she never knew that her curse would be fulfilled, and when she looked closely, she realized that it was the good done by the pink-haired Lori - she saw from a distance that Loria was dragging her right arm, holding a one-handed sword in her left hand, slashing at the rotten shaman who had fallen to the ground, and then was chased and fled by several rotten brute soldiers who reacted.

    “……”

    Ran was silent for a while, although the tactical target was successfully killed, but the scene always made people feel a little helpless - a loli suddenly appeared to kill a jackal and was chased away, some inexplicable joy.

   & After the loss of their leader, the rotten skin gnolls quickly became chaotic, although these creatures have a fairly high intelligence, but they are extremely undisciplined (far less than the gnolls who become mercenaries, for the sake of money, they at least know how to listen to orders and find ways to protect their employers and their own lives), the attack of the rotten skin gnolls is almost no longer there, they are scurrying around, and even attacking their own people because of the friction between them, and the advantage is gradually tilted in favor of the gnolls mercenaries on the city walls.

    The rotten gnolls in the castle were quickly wiped out, and the two rotten brutes who were chasing Miss Loria were lying in an unknown corner because their hearts were frozen.

    When Pink Lori staggered back, Elie Meow noticed that her face was flushed.

    She was covered in blood, and she couldn't tell whether it was her own blood or the blood of the rotten jackals she had killed, but when Vanilla stepped forward to help her, she stood on tiptoe and kissed her cheek.

    "I'm not drunk!"

    Loria smiled, picked up Elie Meow easily, and kissed her too.

    Her strength is so great.

    "I have decided to appoint Elie Meow as the marshal of the kingdom!" Seemingly thinking of herself as a queen, a little strange Loria put down Elie Meow, and pounced on the little female jackal who came to ask for money, and also kissed her hairy face, "You did a good job, you will serve me as the mercenary leader of the kingdom in the future!"

    Vanilla rolled her eyes, she had heard Loria say that vampires are immune to most toxins, but they are not resistant to those who act on spirits...... Who knows what strange stuff the rotten gnoll painted on the arrows. (To be continued)

    ps: It's the beginning of the month again, a little bit of a monthly pass or something.
