The enemy's temporary retreat gave Siegel time to recuperate, and although Manna and Hum asked Siegel to take command of the army, the mage shook his head and didn't take it for granted. He needs to be familiar with and grasp the situation before he can speak, otherwise it will definitely cause chaos on the front.

Ten days ago, when the alarm bell rang in Mir City, the entire army and civilians of the Heim Territory heard it. They remembered what the bell meant and hurried to the castle for refuge.

Standing on a high platform with a big belly, Janet declared that anyone who had the strength to pick up a spear or wield an axe must help defend the walls, or else go home and deal with the enemy herself. She opened the treasury, drained all her stocks, and put into their hands the finest weapons: axes, daggers, swords, maces. Teenagers were given a studded leather coat, while adult men were given chain mail to protect their bodies, shin armor to protect their legs, and helmets to expose only their eyes and mouths. When equipped, some of them even looked like warriors—especially if glanced at from a distance.

"Don't stand stupidly on the city wall as a target, that's the job of the scarecrow!" Archer Knight Mana took over the command and trained the "recruits": "Get up for me, be careful of hidden arrows and stray arrows." How many people know how to throw and shoot arrows?"

In addition to a few hunters, there were also people who liked to throw darts in the bar. Manna gave them the javelins and other items, and asked them to lead several teams separately for rotation.

Janet also gives women and children something to do. Those who were too young to fight were responsible for carrying water and tending to the fires, and preparing hot food for the warriors to eat at any time. Several old women helped the Golem Red take care of the wounded, and Albert Allen, the priest of the Earth Goddess, was assigned several assistants. Both pastors are loners. No experience in leading assistants. Soon. These women are just doing some dismantling, washing, and washing.

Fezak had many more assistants who could help take care of the warehouse, distribute goods, and run errands. I don't know what to do with them. It took a while for the old man to get used to it, and then he coordinated the work of all the helpers. He thought about it for a moment and arranged for a few ingenious children to go to the armory, where they could help install the feather arrows, that is, flatten the feathers and attach them to the shafts of the arrows.

Two gnomes find Manna on the recommendation of Pi Ya, and they offer to join the war. These two were able to hide themselves with illusions, and their skills with the crossbow were really good. Thus it was placed as a guard in the weak point of the castle.

In the days of fighting, some people managed to get through the most difficult initial stages and began to have the courage of a warrior, but many did not survive. If it weren't for the protection of the city walls, the city of Myr would have been breached long ago, and Siegel would not have had a chance to stand on the walls and inspect his team.

A few orcs from the north wandered restlessly near the breastwork, only to silence them until Siegel tapped them on the shoulder and took out his own wine bag to share with the orcs. Word of the Heim Territory has now spread in the Walls Mountains, and many wandering orcs have dragged their families south. Come here to find the happy life they yearn for. After discussing with Janet, Hum took them in. Greatly strengthened the number of half-orcs.

The orc was only eighteen years old, but he was already in the prime of life compared to humans. Siegel saw that he was burly and muscular, and after putting on chain mail, picking up a shield and a short spear, he could not tell the difference in momentum from the elite knights of the human race. If he dropped his shield, picked up the curved blade broadsword behind his back, and then chanted the name of the beastmaster god, this orc could become stronger and more lethal.

Siegel also spotted a half-elven archer wearing a human knight's breastplate, unconcerned about the squid's family crest on it. He has yellow eyes, delicate skin, and golden hair tied in a ponytail at the back of his neck, and is as beautiful as a girl. However, Manna said that he was an experienced archer, and that he was very good with a crossbow, and that perhaps after a period of training, he could stay as a knight.

Fezak walked out of the castle, and Moll was there to take care of him. It can be seen that the one-eyed father is too old and begins to falter. However, the old man kicked Moore hard, and shouted: "What are you still doing in a daze, go to your master's side to serve!"

"Don't be so restrained," Siegel said to Fezak, "take your time. ”

"My lord, after you left, Mora's Root was out of stock, and the castle's finances took a sharp turn for the worse," Fezak said, "Although we didn't expect them to start so quickly, we found out that the southern lord was ready to move before the war, so we prepared some goods in the warehouse. ”

"I was about to ask you, who is the one who is responsible for this time?"

"More than half a year ago, on your orders, we released William Uther and reconciled them with their family. Two months ago, Viscount Uther sent us a message warning of a real plot against the Heim Lord. Then, the Uther family had a border friction with Viscount Helley of Jiamei Province, and the two families faced each other, so they did not join the coalition. Fezak spoke as he rested, so that he could make things clear.

"I once looked at the flags of the enemy, and found that the tallest ones were the Hall family in Port of West France. But they only have the title of baron, and their territory is only a small port of mouth, and with only grassy beaches where reeds can grow, it stands to reason that they should not have the strength to put the banner above the people. According to previous information, the Baron of the Hall family is old, and the new generation has only one son, named Felton, and his martial arts and stratagem are not excellent. But this is all old news, trapped in the city, and the news from the south can't pass through. ”

"Have you ever caught a prisoner?" said Siegel, "especially knights and knights, people who can attend their battle meetings?"

Fezak shook his head and explained, "Most of the people who climbed up to the city were killed by the impatient orcs, and we didn't dare to go out of the city to capture the prisoners. After the ordinary militia surrendered, except for the lord of his own family, the others could not even recognize the flag and family emblem, and they could not help at all. ”

"If only I could know what's going on on the other side. Siegel said with a sigh. He looked at the army on the opposite side, and suddenly had doubts, what was the situation at the checkpoint of Zebra Mountain. Who's on the defensive? If the enemy is attacking on all fronts. How can there be enough men to defend all corners?" he was about to ask. I heard another rough voice outside the city wall shouting: "Siegel, do you have the courage to throw fireballs, do you have the courage to duel?"

Everyone looked under the city walls and marveled at each other's tall stature and strong armor. The vulture bears wrap themselves tightly in specially made plate armor that looks like a moving fortress. The armor does not have any family insignia, indicating that he is not a nobleman. Everyone speculated that the purpose of his challenge was to be able to be awarded for his military exploits.

He must have tried to do this in the past, because his armor was covered with grooves and scratches from battle. This is the basis for his daring to provoke. In addition to the experience of being in a hundred battles. Sturdy protective armor, the weapon in his hand was even more terrifying: a huge two-meter-long battle axe, made entirely of steel, with a sharp blade with a terrifying arc. He lifted his mask and glared at the walls of Myr, cursing as he went.

"Is that a fool?" said Fezak, scoffing, "and not in the wilderness, why do you want to do a knightly duel?"

Apparently observing something more, Manna said to Siegel, "Lord, don't pay attention to him. That's not a knight at all. Not eligible to start a duel. ”

Siegel thought for a moment and said unexpectedly, "No." There are benefits to responding to the war. He turned to Moore and said, "Run fast, go to Janet and get the elemental core." And told her to rest in peace, there is me outside. ”

The young squire nodded, turned and ran away. Standing at the head of the city, Siegel carefully surveyed the situation outside, especially those hidden in the trenches, and made a careful note of their positions.

"Tell all the knights to stay on their posts and prevent the enemy from sneaking up. Siegel said to the knightess, "This may be a ploy of the enemy. ”

Seeing that there was no response from the wall, the vulture scolded even harder, and in his words portrayed Siegel as a shameless villain, a lewd scoundrel, and a cowardly fool. It also mentions the female knight Mana and says that Siegel is a coward hiding under a woman's crotch.

"Shameless bastard!" Manna took her longbow and drew her feathered arrows, raising her hand to shoot. The vulture didn't have time to react at all, but his armor protected him. With a well-heard sound, the feathered arrow was bounced off, leaving only a pit.

"Don't be angry, Mana," Siegel said, "his armor is so heavy that your arrows can't pierce it." ”

"But what he said was too ugly!" the female archer took a few deep breaths, and finally calmed down under Siegel's comfort.

The vulture became even more proud, and swung the axe in his hand so that it whined into the air, and called out loudly: "Are you tickling me? Why don't you take off your armor and scratch me?

Siegel looked at it with a cold gaze, and sentenced him to death in his heart. The squire, Moore, gasped and ran back, handing over the Elemental Control Core.

Under the gaze of everyone on the battlefield, Siegel floated down the city wall like a feather and stood opposite the giant bear. He had no armor on him, only lightweight, soft mage robes. As for the weapons, except for the long sword on his waist and the dagger next to his soft boots, only the short staff in his hand looked suspicious.

"You're Siegel?" the vulture spat at the ground, happily picking up his axe and lowering his visor. His voice became muffled: "Siegel Squid?"

"Are you here to fight or to put on a show of ugliness?" Siegel raised the short staff in his hand, and the elements were quickly mobilized.

Felton, who was watching the battle from afar, frowned, feeling that the flow of the elements was very wrong, but he couldn't say what was abnormal. He kept a close eye on the situation on the field, constantly improving his evaluation of Master Siegel's abilities.

"There is still the power to mobilize the magic element, what is his body made of?" Felton secretly envied in his heart, but he couldn't see it in the slightest from his expression.

The bald bear raised his axe and began to charge, bursting with incredible speed. Despite his massive body and heavy armor, he is gifted, explosive, and has speed that is not commensurate with his size. At a distance of more than a dozen paces, he is stronger than the charging ability of a war horse. It was because of this reliance that he dared to fight a mage.

But he was thinking too simply. (To be continued......)
