Chapter 289: Berserk Corpse Soldier (I)

The caravan opened the way with Shaman's escort. They are all lightly armored knights. Everyone in the caravan had horses, even though the servants were not horses, and they were not slow.

The thieves, who were observing from afar, found that their target was not holding on to the town, but rushed out, and was immediately embarrassed.

The men who hired them wanted the thieves to trap the caravan in the town of Trensu, but the thieves had not gathered enough men, and instead of holding on to the city as they had hoped, the thieves left immediately, and the thieves had to bite the bullet.

The thieves from the east and west flanks gathered more than a hundred cavalry and followed up. They didn't dare to block in the front, there were not enough people, and there were more than 300 soldiers wearing metal armor on the other side, and most of the thieves were cloth armor, and even leather armor was pitiful.

However, among the more than 100 thief cavalry, five of them were holding alchemy crossbows, which were given by the people who hired them, and the crossbow machine of the alchemy crossbow also had the ordnance number of the Qin Yin Empire.

The five thieves with alchemical crossbows chased after them, and when they reached a distance of three hundred meters, they had not yet aimed and fired. Although the range of the alchemy crossbow is five hundred meters, their strength is too low, and the alchemy crossbow also has to be targeted. These five thieves don't have that far vision.

Fifty of Aini's own soldiers turned around in unison, and fifty alchemy crossbows were fired at the same time, and within a distance of three hundred meters, alchemy crossbows could pierce through iron armor. The five thieves, dressed in leather armor, were shot out of a dozen holes at once. Although the accuracy of Aini's own soldiers was not too high, he still shot a third of the fifty crossbow arrows.

"Alchemy crossbow!" the thieves behind panicked and shouted, Le Ma!

These thieves didn't expect that the other party had an alchemy crossbow at all, because the other party was a regular caravan and used an alchemy crossbow, and if they were reported, they would suffer a big lawsuit. As soon as they stopped, hundreds of corpses rushed out of the woods on both sides of the road and pounced on the thieves on their horses.

Aini was so clever in her calculations that she ambushed the corpse soldiers outside the city last night. The thieves had come around from the east and west of the city, and had not noticed the ambush. The corpse soldiers did not breathe, did not move even under the bite of mosquitoes, and hid in the piles of rotting leaves, which the thieves had no means of discovering.

The corpse soldiers, who were originally moving slowly, had purple eyes at this time, and their movement speed increased more than ten times, and they pounced on the thieves as fast as lightning, tearing them with their fingernails.

The Berserk Corpse Soldier was already stronger than the Sword Master, and the thieves blew up the pot and tried to scatter and escape, without even thinking about fighting back.

It's not wise to fight a horde of corpses, the problem is that the berserk corpses can catch up with horses that haven't accelerated even on two legs. The thieves were chased one by one and dragged off their horses, and an average of three corpse soldiers against one thief tore them all to pieces in a matter of moments.

These corpse soldiers were too far away from Aini to lose the possibility of command, and they were fighting only on instinct. After killing the thieves on horseback, the corpse soldiers rushed in the direction of the town of Trensu, followed by the thieves on foot.

The thieves who followed up behind had been chasing hard, desperately relying on two legs to hurry, but at this time, they encountered the berserk corpse soldiers head-on, and they were immediately scattered.

In fact, these berserk corpse soldiers have many weaknesses, first of all, they are not equipped with battle armor, and the physical strength of the corpse soldiers is not as good as that of human swordsmen. The second is that these corpse soldiers fight on instinct without the command of a necromancer. Their fighting skills during their lifetime cannot be preserved at all, and their fighting methods are very rude.

But these corpse soldiers had hideous faces and blood all over their bodies, and they felt very disgusting and terrifying at a glance. The only weapon the corpse has evolved is the long nails on their hands, which are unusually sharp. It can easily cut through leather armor, but it is difficult to deal with iron armor.

If the corpse soldiers put on armor, they can only fight the regular army under the command of the necromancer, but fortunately, the enemy is organized and undisciplined thieves, and when they see the terrifying corpse soldiers, they are immediately in a hurry.

The daring thief slashed at him with his sword, but the corpse soldier did not dodge, allowing the thief to cut his face in two, and then grabbed it with one claw, and scratched the thief on the opposite side with a full face.

The fingernails and corpse fluid of the corpse soldiers were highly poisonous, sprayed out, and suddenly several thieves fell down with wails.

If there is a necromancer next to him, he can still make the corpse soldier explode by himself, within a radius of more than ten meters, anyone who is sprayed with poisonous corpse liquid will be poisoned, and there is no magician above level 5 who can't be saved at all. Unless you wear fully enclosed heavy armor, the rest of the methods are not defensible at all.

Necromancers have many similar ways of fighting, giving enemies a headache on the battlefield.

The cost of fully enclosed armor is high, ordinary people can't afford to use it, and thieves are poor, how can there be a hand like Rex. The hallmark of the Empire's lowest-ranking barons is that they are guarded by a high-ranking swordsman who has a fully enclosed set of metal armor.

The horseless thieves were slaughtered by the berserk corpses, and none of them escaped. The Berserk Corpse Soldiers had almost exhausted their strength, and their speed was getting slower and slower, and before they could get back to the town of Trensu, they fell to the ground one after another, shattering from within. Reduced to a pile of minced meat.

The order Aini gave them was to kill back to the town of Trensu, but unfortunately, the hastily created corpse soldiers lacked physical strength, and after the fierce fighting, they could not even maintain their physical integrity.

There were still more than 300 thieves in Telunsu Town who had not caught up, and when they saw the corpses rushing from afar falling, all of them turned pale, and some even began to vomit.

On Salin's carriage, Aini was holding a huge crystal ball in both hands, and the black points of light in the crystal ball disappeared one by one, so Salin put away the crystal ball and said, "It's safe for the time being." ”

"Brother Aini, you're amazing!" Sharman stared at him with wide eyes, but Aini didn't answer.

Salin laughed, "It's their stupidity to want to rely on the numerical advantage to deal with necromancers. ”

Triss watched from Salin's side, a little disapproving, those corpse soldiers have no effect on the demons, the demons are not afraid of those venoms, if he gives him a few hundred little demons, he can kill tens of thousands of corpse soldiers.

Su is not very optimistic about this kind of undead, the battle time is short, and those venoms can be dispersed by sword qi, and the Silver Sword Saint is in battle. Even magic can resist, not to mention venom with little attack power**.

Aini was a little proud at this time, and said, "I thought there would be a blockade ahead, but it seems that the thieves were temporarily organized." If there were no three or five thousand men, I would have been able to deal with such an attack alone. ”

Salin said: "If you do this, the person who is really manipulating behind the back may not come out." ”

Aini thought to herself, it's not your idea yet. With Shaman here, you can't do anything too dangerous, so let's deter the enemy first. It will be easy to mobilize the brigade and occupy the town of Telunsu when we go back and occupy it.

"Huh?" Shaman suddenly pricked up her ears, her little ears still turning freely, as if she had heard something.

"He's a great guy. Lord ......"

Su also heard the sound of horses' hooves, and both he and Shaman were sword masters, and they could hear the general strength of the enemy from the sound of horses' hooves. There were three horses in total, and the speed was amazing, and they were already approaching the end of the line.

Shaman's mouth moved, and she didn't greet the mage at the front of the line, and she also had a great mage with her, not by her side. There was also Nania, the great magician, in the car, and Sharman thought that Salin would let Nania and Sue deal with the three hard-sounding guys.

"Don't bother, it's just three quasi-sword masters. Saleen waved his hand, and Sue relaxed, leaning her back against the soft cushion.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, the sound of the horse's hooves stopped. Fifty of Aini's own soldiers fired a few arrows, and they frightened the strongest of the three thieves.

Fifty alchemy crossbows are no joke, the attack distance of the quasi-sword saint has not increased, and it is only safe to launch an attack within ten meters, the other party has so many alchemy crossbows, there must be a quasi-head within a hundred meters.

The three thieves looked at each other, they hurried over, and when they saw the corpses on the ground, they were originally angry and chased after them, they didn't care about a necromancer, and it was still easy for three quasi-sword saints to deal with a necromancer.

Who knew that the enemy actually had so many alchemy crossbows, and the attack of the alchemy crossbow, if it was within fifty meters, could no longer withstand it by relying on sword qi.

"Who's giving the information!" scolded one of the thieves leaders. The enemy not only has powerful necromancers, but also so many alchemical crossbows, how can this be fought? Unless there is a regular army, it is impossible to deal with it with the rabble under his command. The three of them arrived in a hurry, not even changing their shields and armor, and wearing leather armor.

Even if you have a shield, you can't protect the horses, and you can't catch up with others.

At the head of the leader of the three thieves. A silver-billed raven flew away. A few minutes later, the raven flew into Salin's carriage and landed.

Ani pushed the window open, and the silver-billed raven slipped in, jumped onto his palm, and croaked.

Aini listened for a while and said, "Sure enough, someone behind it was instigated, but unfortunately the undead can only relay it, and there is no way to know their accent." Aini said, repeating what the silver-billed raven had heard.

"We bypassed the next town and set up camp in the wilderness. Saleen smiled. They were faster than the enemy could have imagined, so the enemy did not organize an effective attack, and did not even have enough men.

Fifty miles more will make the enemy lose judgment again. If the next town is also controlled by the enemy, it is better to camp in the wilderness, at least the enemy will be exposed.

The entanglement and harassment were ineffective, and the thieves could not catch up with the caravan and simply retreated. The convoy sped up, the road here was already Qin Yin's regular lane, and the person pulling the car had also changed to a skeleton war horse, and in the afternoon, he had already come to another town.

There was still no garrison in this town, but there was a tax collector from Phoenix at the door, and after seeing the skeleton soldiers in the caravan, he simply pretended not to see the brigade of hundreds of people, and let everyone pass. The caravan passed through the town, did not stop, continued on its way, and when it was dark, it ran for more than a hundred miles.

The team stopped and set up camp, and Salin was very envious of the servants of the two families. The quality of these slaves was even better than that of the pirates that Salin had first collected, and if a battle broke out, these slaves were put on armor and were qualified soldiers.
