Chapter 38: The Real Winner

Despite a victory, Sinclair was not happy. The thought of the ten Bear Riders that Reilly had killed filled her eyes filled with rage.

A great magician approached and reported the results of the battle to Sinclair.

In this battle, most of the 2,800 men brought by Sarenwell were killed, and only a hundred or so agile guys escaped. More than 3,500 of Hinclaire's servants were killed, and more than half of them were killed or wounded.

She waved her hand impatiently and said, "Leave those guys who make up the numbers, it's not worth worrying about when they're all dead!

"Sixteen people were killed in the battle and five were seriously wounded, three of which have been determined to be irretrievable. Speaking of this, the Great Mage's face was extremely ugly.

"So, only twenty people can continue to fight?" said Sinclaire, gritting his teeth.

At this time, another great magician hurriedly came over and said, "My lord, there is news of Richard!"

―――――――――――――― half an hour later――――――――――

Seeing Sinclair leave the battlefield with her troops, the dragonflies hovering in the air immediately flew down and feasted on the corpses. Seeing this, Sinclair withdrew his gaze and stopped paying attention to the bugs.

It took another hour for Reilly to rush into the battlefield with the puppet knights, collect all the corpses as fast as he could, and then run away in a puff of smoke.

"I'll take a bite, all the high-level corpses have been gnawed a few bites, and the heart is gone!" After hiding in a hidden stone forest, Reilly began to count today's harvest.

"A fourteenth-level archmage, a sixteenth-level archpriest, a sixteenth-level knight chief, three twelve-level priests, and four tenth-level mages, plus more than a hundred tenth-level knights. Reilly thought for a moment and asked, "System, how much divine power does it take to convert these corpses into corresponding soldiers?"

"Fifty thousand. ”

"So expensive?" Reilly frowned and asked, "What if you don't use corpses and just use your divine power to create these soldiers?"

"One hundred and fifty thousand. ”

"Did you save 100,000 yuan all of a sudden? War is really a profiteering industry!"

In fact, in the battle that just ended, Reilly was the real winner. Not only will he harvest thousands of skeletons, but he will also receive a level 16 Knight of the Dawn and a level 16 Templar. In addition, there will be three more puppet priests of level 12 and five puppet mages of level 10 and above in the army, and the number of puppet knights has also exceeded three hundred.

"One jungler, one pit, one wave of team battles, one wave of fat!, gentlemen, I love war!" Rayleigh hummed as he headed east of the Bloodstained Lands.

At this time, Richard's team was advancing along the edge of the Bloodstained Lands. He sat on his warhorse and thought solemnly. Suddenly, a puff of smoke and dust rose from a distance, and a small group of cavalry guarding the outfit ran towards a middle-aged nobleman.

(Fourth batch...... οΌ‰

Richard thought for a moment, pointed to the team of knights and said, "Stop and ask!"

Seeing Richard's team from afar, the nobleman was already frightened. However, he also knew that his riding skills were limited, and he could not outrun the sandmen no matter what, so he had to obediently come to Richard.

Seeing the mage robe and noble coat of arms on Richard's body, the middle-aged nobleman's pale face looked better, and he hurriedly greeted: "I am Viscount Azadis, Golden Maple Leaf, may I ask who you are?"

"My name is Richard, and I'm a pioneer knight of the Sequoia Kingdom. Richard said with a smile.

"Oh, Pioneer Knight......" A hint of disdain flashed across Azadis's face, but he quickly put away this emotion, and instead glanced at the warrior behind Richard with a sharp gaze, and then showed good etiquette and asked, "So, may I ask who your lord is?"

"Duke Billy, the blue wolf. ”

Asadis straightened his back a little more, but there was no unnatural disgust or disdain on his face, which was very different from the first three nobles that Richard had stopped.

"The Duke is a leader who impresses on the first meeting, a knight with a true pioneering spirit. Loyalty to such a lord is a great match for your status as a pioneer knight. Asadis said.

His answers were clever and his comments were pertinent. Among the three dukes of the Sequoia Kingdom, Duke Blue Wolf is the most belligerent, and he is in a state of war almost every day. His forces have long been directed abroad, but there have been many times when he has used force against internal enemies. Therefore, many nobles privately called him Duke Vicious Wolf.

This is where Azadis's sophistication and shrewdness are revealed. He didn't look at people only by his status like other nobles, even for Richard, a pioneer knight who barely touched the aristocratic side, Viscount Golden Maple Leaf gave enough courtesy.

Asadis had a considerable understanding of the military, and he could see at a glance that Richard's army had the strength to easily defeat most of the baron's private soldiers, which was already a viscount-level armament. As a result, the viscount ceremoniously treated Richard as if he were a nobleman of the same rank.

At the same time, Richard was watching Asadis. Although he had never met, he was no stranger to the name of this Golden Maple Leaf Viscount. According to the data, the other party's territory is only 200 kilometers away from his small village, and it is a rich land. There are not only plains for grain production, but also a large mountainous area with several mysterious mines and a woodland for valuable tree species.

Asadis has a large family behind him, and the father of this viscount is the Marquis of Maple Dew of the Sequoia Kingdom.

Richard escorted Asadis for some distance and learned the details of the battle between the coalition forces and the invaders.

The Viscount's description is very accurate, the combat effectiveness of the Bear Knights in his mouth is quite consistent with the Bear Knights in Richard's memory, and the strength of the two great magicians is not exaggerated. As long as there is a suitable structure, a level fourteen mage can fully exert the combat power of level sixteen.

In addition, Richard also learned about Sinclair's existence from Azadis, which made his heart very heavy. Judging from that woman's performance on the battlefield, it is likely that her actual combat power has reached the level of eighteenth. For Richard, it was an irresistible presence.

The only thing that gave him comfort was that Reilly was safe in that battle, and that he had killed several Bear Knights. According to Azadis, Reilly's cast spell was more than a kilometer away, which puzzled Richard.

(Could it be some kind of supermagic technique?)

After giving Asadis a ride and settling a tentative trade deal with him, Richard separated from the viscount and continued in a southeasterly direction.

And at this time, Reilly was looking at a team of knights rushing in front of him with a look of surprise on his face. The other party's performance was very rude, and he galloped all the way in front of him, and even some gravel was kicked up by the war horse and jumped on the puppet knight's body.

(Who the hell is such an uneducated guy?)

The group of knights was surrounded by a young nobleman, and in Reilly's eyes, this richly dressed fellow must have exceeded a hundred kilograms.

With his head held high, he looked at the person opposite him proudly, and his gaze deliberately lingered on Reilly's body for a moment, focusing on Reilly's mage robe. Seeing that Reilly didn't even have a badge representing the nobility, the arrogance that was already so thick that it couldn't be dissolved became even thicker, as if it was about to drip down. The young nobleman didn't even bother to speak, just waved his hand at the knight beside him.

A knight stepped out of the crowd and rode his horse directly into the puppet knight in the front row.

Reilly looked at him with interest and asked, "What exactly are you trying to express?"

"This is the Venerable Highland Unicorn Viscount, Lord Chim!, who are you, report your identity at once!" cried the knight in a loud voice.

"My name is Reilly, and I'm a mage, and I'm currently working for Richard, a pioneer knight under Duke Wolf. Reilly smiled and said.

Hearing that he was working for a Pioneer Knight, Sim's men burst into laughter.

At this moment, the knight in front stretched out his whip and drew a large circle in the air, encompassing all of Reilly's team.

"Lucky for you, mage! Now, noble Lord Sim needs a guard! I announce that you and your knights have been requisitioned, come quickly!" The knight commanded in an arrogant tone, and his demeanor was almost like that of a king.

Reilly ignored the guy and turned to the fat young nobleman, "Viscount Sim, right? Look, there is not even a figure in this wilderness, what if I kill you and burn the corpse with magical flames?"

Sim's face changed drastically, and cold sweat continued to ooze from his forehead. He was arrogant, but he wasn't stupid. If Reilly has murderous intentions, he won't be able to escape from any of his side, and then he will die without proof.

"I'm a Highland Unicorn......"

Reilly unceremoniously interrupted his screams and said, "Dead people don't have any identity! If you don't want to be a nameless corpse in the Bloodstained Lands, surrender quickly! I'll wait until I've seen Richard before I decide what to do with you." ”
