Chapter 15: Assault on Goldtown
With the death of Count Novan and the occupation of Count Casa, this terrible battle finally came to an end. The reason why this battle is tragic is that since the miners began to attack, more than 1,000 of the 8,000 miners have died, and many more have been seriously or lightly wounded! These elite light cavalry, which swept like the wind, burst out with ferocious combat effectiveness in the face of the miners!
It's just that at this moment, these elite light cavalry were told that the battle was over, and the slave miners who had been killed wildly before had become comrades who needed to fight side by side!
After recruiting three Expert Witches (25*3 for a total of 75 kg of gold), a Warden (100 kg of gold), and three Master Banshees (75*3 for a total of 225 kg of gold), Zuo Zhe's original gold of only 480 kg was reduced to 80 kg. At such a huge cost, the benefits that Zuo Zhe wants to obtain are undoubtedly ten or a hundred times that of Zuo Zhe. And now, after the banshee occupies the body of Count Casa, Zuo Zhe has the opportunity to develop by leaps and bounds again!
It's just that what should be done with the current group of captives who have lost their ability to resist? Although they may not have seen the picture of the banshee occupying Count Casa before, if they are left alone, there is a possibility that news will be unfavorable to Zuo Zhe. In comparison, it seems that killing these powerful enemies is the better choice. After killing so many enemies with good strength, the heroes under Zuo Zhe were able to upgrade to the peak of level 5 in unison. The problem was that the killing of captives was something that paladins, archmages, and priestesses of the moon were unwilling to accept. In addition to the opinions of the heroes, Zuo Zhe didn't want to waste this elite cavalry with a number of nearly a thousand in vain. If this elite cavalry, which numbered nearly 1,000 people, could be brought into the account, the next battle would be much easier. Although these people have committed a lot of murder when they were powerful and blessed in the past, even if they are sentenced to death, it is not wronged to them. However, this is not the earth after all, and we cannot completely follow the rules of the earth. If not, wouldn't all the nobles, wealthy merchants, and other high-ranking figures in this world be sentenced to death? Although Zuo Zhe, who knew what they were doing, did not mind killing these heinous slave owners. However, if Zuo Zhe really does that, he will be the enemy of the nobles of the whole world, and he will still be the kind that will never die! With Zuo Zhe's current strength, he is far from reaching the level of confrontation with the violent organs of the whole world.
Therefore, since you can't blindly force it, you can only take a compromise approach.
"It has been found out that these are the killers sent by my eldest brother! Would you like to join me in seeking justice for my brother?!" Count Casa seemed to have changed from a straw bale to a wise and martial lord at once. Although the scenes in front of him are all strange, some people even secretly say that Count Casa was bewitched by the female ghost. However, in the face of the Count of Casa with a bright smile on his face and a kind attitude, the knights could only suppress the doubts in their hearts and chose to obey Count Casa's orders. As for the mages, knights, and assassins who had witnessed the banshee's occupation of Count Casa, they had now been imprisoned in the mine castle and had become experience points for the Juggernaut, the King of the Hill, and the Warden. Since the Archmage, Paladin, and Priestess of the Moon were reluctant to kill the captives, the job of killing them was left to the Juggernaut, the King of the Hill, and the Warden, who had no psychological barrier to this. After killing again and again, the experience of the three heroes, Juggernauts, King of the Hill, and Warden, was increased to level 5 full experience. Juggernaut has mastered level 3 Wind Walk, level 1 Mirror Image, and level 1 Critical Strike, King of the Hill has mastered level 3 Storm Hammer, level 1 Thunder Strike, and level 1 Stun, while Warden has mastered level 3 Blinker, level 1 Blade Array, and level 1 Whirlwind.
Signaling the infantry and militia squads led by the paladins to stay in the gold mines and manage the newly freed miners, Zuo Zhe led his hero and thousands of cavalry towards the golden town more than ten kilometers away. Of course, before that, Zuo Zhe first threw out the useless ores in the Warcraft space, making the already somewhat congested Warcraft space empty again.
Opportunities are fleeting, and every minute of delay brings more to the occasion. Unless Zuo Zhe wants to attack a city with thousands of slave miners with strong and towering walls, he must set out immediately to win the maximum benefit before the mutation happens!
It's a pity that Zuo Zhe can't ride a horse! Therefore, Zuo Zhe "resolutely" sat behind the priestess of the moon and rode a white tiger with the priestess of the moon. Considering the goddess's hatred of the salty pig hand, Zuo Zhe would not take the opportunity to rub the oil, at least not too obviously.
Well, Zuo Zhe is not only secretly rubbing oil along the way, but also listening to the report of the archmage. Yes, the archmage has finally mounted his beloved white horse, and his speed is almost catching up with the speeding Juggernaut!Well, some heroes are still surprisingly fast even if they don't have mounts. As for why the Sword Master didn't ride a horse? The reason was that the Sword Master's weight was overweight, and no war horse could move the Sword Master! Besides, the speed of the war horse was not as fast as the Sword Master! As far as the road of more than ten kilometers was concerned, it was nothing to the Sword Master!
"Because Your Majesty has not studied magic and fighting spirit, and his mental power is relatively limited, there is no way to activate magic props for the time being. The archmage, who was walking hand in hand with the priestess of the moon, said with regret that made Zuo Zhe ashamed. However, the archmage obviously did not come to humiliate Zuo Zhe. I only heard him suppress and then raise him, and said something that made Zuo Zhe's eyes light up.
"I suggest that Your Majesty summon some troops in advance and hide them in space. When it's time to fight, you'll be able to keep your defense-strong and burly druids in front of you when you encounter physical attacks. If you're under a magical attack, you can keep the spellbreaker in your way. If the enemy's magic attack is an area of effect attack, you can summon a banshee to put an anti-magic shield on you. "The archmage gave a combat method that can immediately improve Zuo Zhe's life-saving ability, that is, prepare the meat shield troops in advance, and when the battle comes, summon these troops to block in front of him as a meat shield.
As for cultivating magic or fighting spirit, it's a pity that the archmage is not a person from this world, and his memories of his previous life are very limited.
"So, my current profession is actually a summoner!" Zuo Zhe concluded as he hugged the slender and tight and powerful waist of the Priestess of the Moon, feeling the refreshing fragrance of the beautiful body.
