Chapter 166: The Great War is Coming

"Bang bang bang".

Early in the morning, it was just dawn outside, but there was a loud knock at the door.

"Merlin, get up, there's an accident!"

Old Wilson's deep voice came from outside the door, and his tone seemed to be hurried.

"Huh?"

Merlin opened his eyes suddenly, he looked at Avril and Shellis beside him, they were still sleeping soundly, and there was no sign of waking up.

So, Merlin did not wake them up, but got up directly and opened the door, and found old Wilson standing outside the door, with an anxious look on his face, and when he saw Merlin, he said in a deep voice: "Merlin, go quickly, Longardi has sent a large army, and now it is outside the city, and Count Selin has sent someone to invite you to the Earl's castle to discuss." ”

"Longadi's movements are so fast?"

Merlin was also a little surprised, in his opinion, it should take some time for Longadi to make up his mind to swallow the city-state of Pugas in one bite, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

"Father, then I'll go first!"

Merlin put on his clothes and hurried to the hall, where two knights were already waiting.

"Lord Baron, Lord Earl, please!"

The two knights were also very polite to Merlin and said respectfully.

"Lead the way!"

Merlin followed the two knights, got into the carriage, and hurried towards the Earl's castle.

Soon, the carriage slowly stopped, Merlin jumped out of the carriage, and found that outside the Earl's castle, many carriages had been parked, and it seemed that the Count of Selin had called quite a few people.

Merlin walked directly into the castle, and sure enough, he found many nobles, all with anxious faces. And Count Selin's expression was also ugly. Now it's just in front of everyone. I barely managed to keep my composure.

"Baron Merlin, you have come just in time, there are many Lebis troops outside the city, and our city of Pugas has become precarious!"

When Count Selin saw Merlin, his face showed a hint of joy, and he hurriedly said, even if he was out of order, the previous Earl of Selin, even if he was facing Merillon. He wasn't as careless as he is now. It shows how serious this incident is.

"The army of the city-state of Lebis has already arrived outside the city, so what can you do?"

Merlin's eyes swept slightly, and he found that most of the nobles had a bitter face, but no one could say anything.

"The only way now is to fight!"

Finally, a figure stood up and said loudly. Merlin narrowed his eyes slightly, taking a closer look at the person who was speaking. It was discovered that it was the son of Earl Selin, Commander Cook!

"Ha Luha, yes, what else can be done now?

Suddenly, there was a sharp voice from outside the door, and then, dressed in a black robe, the whole person was covered by a wide black robe, it was the old man in the black robe.

Count Cylin's face showed a hint of surprise, but then a hint of worry appeared on his face, and he whispered, "Master Ciel, how are your injuries?"

Count Selin also knew that the black-robed old man of the Dao Dao was injured, and he naturally didn't know what the spell model was unstable, but he knew that the situation of the black-robed old man of the Dao was very bad, and he couldn't shoot at will.

The black-robed old man's gaze swept away, and after seeing Merlin, he nodded slightly, and then said in a loud voice: "My injuries are still thanks to the potions that Baron Merlin brought back from the Dark Spirit Realm, which allowed me to recover some, although I have not fully recovered, but I can also exert my full strength, so this time Pugas City has reached such a dangerous point, how can I not come?"

Count Selin nodded, still very happy in his heart, after all, the arrival of the black-robed old man had increased their strength by one point.

"Okay, Mage Hill you also agree to a fight, then Baron Merlin, what do you think?"

Earl Selyn looked at Merlin and asked Merlin.

After pondering for a while, Merlin's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he said coldly: "I also agree with the proposal of Commander Cook and Mage Ciel, the only way now is to let go of the battle!"

Merlin's words fell, and the whole hall became extremely quiet, and everyone's eyes were on Count Selin, and at this time, it was time for Count Selin to make a choice.

"Fight, at all costs!Longadi, if he wants my city-state of Pugas, then he must be prepared to pay a heavy price!"

Count Selyn stood up sharply and spoke loudly, in a resolute tone.

"Fight, at all costs!"

All the nobles also roared, which also means that the upper nobles of Pugas City are united and will defend Pugas City at all costs.

Immediately afterward, Count Selin began to arrange the deployment of many troops in the city of Pugas in an orderly manner, while Merlin came to the black-robed old man's side and asked in a low voice, "Master Ciel, you really have no problem?"

The black-robed old man showed a hint of a smile, nodded and said, "Yes, your purple stone powder potion is indeed very effective, although it has not completely stabilized the spell model, but now it will not affect my ability to release spells!"

It does not affect the release of spells, which means that the old man in black robe already has combat effectiveness, and he is no longer the caster who was in danger before and the spell model will collapse at any time!

Soon the Count of Cylin had made arrangements, and everyone went up to the gates.

On the city gate, Merlin could clearly see that outside the city, there were dense soldiers, some knights with spears, some foot soldiers with shields, and some heavy crossbowmen hiding in the distance, and even Merlin could see the terrible heavy crossbow machine in Lebys's army.

This kind of heavy crossbow machine is difficult to build, but once it is built, the power is very amazing, and it can shoot dozens of crossbow swords as thick as a baby's arm in a row, and the power is even more amazing.

Such a powerful heavy crossbow machine has appeared, which also shows that Longadi's move is inevitable, and he must completely break through Pugas City.

Count Selin looked at the many soldiers of the city-state of Lebis below, and his face was faintly pale.

"Defending is not a solution, sooner or later they will be attacked, no matter what, we have to try to attack!"

Count Selin quickly stabilized his mood, although he saw so many people in the city-state of Lebis below, he also knew that there was no way out now, and it was always not a way to defend it, and now while there was no victory or defeat, he could hit it head-on.

"Open the city gates, send 20,000 knights, and attack the opponent's formation!"

Count Selin said in a deep voice, in a large-scale war like this, tens of thousands of people fighting each other, what is needed is extremely excellent command ability, and neither Merlin nor the black-robed old man can help with this.

Merlin's goal is to prevent the opponent's spellcaster from breaking the city gate, and as long as the city gate is not broken, then Pugas City will be safe.

Soon, the gates of the city of Pugas opened, and many knights rushed out of it, among which there was a black torrent, which was very noticeable.

"Father!"

Merlin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know when Old Wilson actually led hundreds of heavily armored knights under his command to rush out of the city gate.

Count Selin looked at Merlin with a worried look on his face, and then said in a low voice, "Baron Merlin, do you want me to give an order for Commander Wilson to come back?"

Now the old Wilson is no longer a baron, just a commander in Merlin's territory, and Count Selin is also afraid that old Wilson will be in danger and will make Merlin misunderstand.

However, Merlin shook his head slightly, looked at the old Wilson under the city, and said in a calm tone: "No need, maybe this is the life my father wants, he has been training heavy knights, isn't it just to go back to the battlefield?"

Merlin knew that decades in the army had too much influence on old Wilson, and perhaps fighting the battlefield like this was the life that old Wilson wanted.

"Fight!"

Selin immediately gave an order, and suddenly, 20,000 knights began to rush frantically towards the formation of the Lebis city-state, and the army of the Lebis city-state also immediately rushed out of tens of thousands of knights and began to frantically strangle.

In the battle of tens of thousands of people, a few or dozens of people do not play much role at all, and every life seems so small.

Such a huge war scene, Merlin is also the first time to see it, when the two knights meet, it is a cruel strangulation, either you die or I live.

Among the two torrents, a black torrent is extremely conspicuous, it is the old Wilson's heavy knight, this heavy knight who has spent more than ten years of old Wilson's energy, has been following from Blackwater City to Pugas City, until now, they have finally realized their value, on the battlefield, they are like a sharp knife, directly into the heart of the enemy.

Wherever the heavily armored knights went, almost no one could resist and be invincible!

However, their numbers are too small, and the knights of Pugas City have begun to show defeat.

Count Selin, who was behind the city wall, shook his head slightly, with a hint of disappointment on his face, and said in a low voice, "Defeated...... Send a decree down and let everyone withdraw to the city and close the gates!"

Count Selin quickly saw the disadvantage of the initial battle, and in any case, he couldn't exhaust the vitality of the battle, after all, they had to rely on them to defend Pugas City.

As a result, the knights of Pugas began to gradually withdraw to Pugas City.

Merlin has been keeping an eye on old Wilson, although the heavily armored knight just hit violently and lost a lot of people, but old Wilson was fine, and he retreated to the city after the last round.

Seeing that old Wilson was indeed fine, Merlin breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the dense array of soldiers below, Merlin frowned, his strongest range attack spell Thunder Net now can only cover a range of tens or hundreds of meters, and he can't reach the point of sweeping a large area and sweeping thousands of troops alone, which is the ability that only spellcasters above level four have.

"Mage Hill, you participated in the brutal 'slaughterhouse' war back then, those powerful spellcasters, it is impossible for everyone to be a fourth-level spellcaster, and those low-level spellcasters, how do you do it?"

Merlin turned his gaze to the black-robed old man next to him and asked softly.
