Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords.

Chapter 156 I’m really going to do it!
As for the archers of the Thorn Legion? Fujiro shook his head.

After the Minotaur's massacre, most of the soldiers who had never seen such a brutal race were scared to death. They were able to continue drawing the bow and shooting arrows while trembling, which was considered well-trained.

But it doesn't matter. As long as this group of orc guards can hold on for a while, he can mobilize the soldiers to return for defense.

This time he was frightened enough that he stopped looking down on these wilderness natives.

The Minotaur thought that hand-to-hand combat was about to begin, and they were excited when facing this group of black iron cans that were obviously stronger.

After all, it is very boring for them to slaughter humans just like stepping on an ant.

But they didn't know that their nightmare had officially begun.

All the barbarians stopped at the same time when they were about fifty steps away, and the big mouths in their armor opened, revealing cunning smiles.

They are very experienced in dealing with these big guys.

Swish swish!
He reached behind his waist, grasped the javelin in his hand, stepped back, raised his hand, and threw it hard.

Dozens of fine steel javelins crossed the short distance in the blink of an eye and headed straight for the angry minotaur-faced man.

These javelins were so powerful that they instantly pierced through the minotaurs' layer of armor, knocking their huge bodies to the ground. They struggled on the ground but couldn't get up.

Now, all the orc guards led by Levi are at level five. With the help of the system's power, they have undergone a qualitative change and are no longer the rustic orcs in the wilderness.

Now he was much stronger than the Minotaur in both strength and speed, and he had perfected throwing skills. He could kill a fleeing hare within fifty steps.

Not to mention this group of tall and burly Minotaurs, they are no different from living targets.

Seven or eight of them were knocked down with just one wave of spears.

The Minotaurs that had managed to escape were sweating profusely and involuntarily slowed down their charge.

Before they go berserk, they still know fear and terror.

This team is much more difficult to deal with than they thought.

"My battle axe has been almost frozen to pieces, so now is a good time to warm it up!" Zat charged forward with a grim smile, only one body length behind the lord.

The orc soldiers roared in battle and threw a wave of javelins, which then crashed into the Minotaurs like a tide.

These Minotaurs were obviously stronger than the orc warriors, but they were teased like children in the hands of the other side.

An orc warrior faced the Minotaur's fierce axe, dodged sideways, and hit the opponent's leg bone with a hammer. As he involuntarily lowered his body, he smashed the entire bull's head like a watermelon with another hammer, and red and white things fell to the ground.

Not only are the orcs much stronger and faster than the Minotaurs, but their martial arts are also at the master level.

In their eyes, these Minotaurs are just fools with greater strength who can be easily teased.

"Crush these dwarfs!" The captain of the Minotaur roared angrily, almost hysterically.

Everything before his eyes seemed like an absurd dream, but the screams lingering in his ears brought him back to reality.

The Minotaur were all excellent warriors, and their performance in past battles was so outstanding and proud. When they shouted to charge, the mountain pig-headed men were no match for them, and the group of people had to retreat. Even when facing powerful bear warriors, they could show admirable courage.

But at this moment, their unrivaled strength was completely crushed. As for their martial arts, they were as ridiculous as the tricks of the little calves in the tribe in front of these black-armored dwarfs.

Although they don't want to admit it, the reality is that their personal bravery, which they are extremely proud of, is being crushed by others in all aspects.

Levi took the lead and rushed to the front. With just a swing of the giant sword mixed with mountain copper, the Minotaur who was so bold as to try to resist him was cut in half.

There was a crisp sound, just like cutting sugarcane.

This extremely horrifying performance made Sikai swallow his saliva involuntarily.

He had already overestimated the Lord of Highcliff Castle.

But he was able to cut a man in half with just his physical strength, along with his armor, with one sword. What kind of tremendous strength must be contained in his body!

If other people were faced with such an extremely horrifying performance, they would have been scared out of their wits, but this was a group of Minotaurs. Facing the death of their companions, red light lingered around them, and their unarmored hooves were visibly larger. It spread as quickly as a plague, and everyone went into a frenzy.

This made Sikai look bitter. Originally, he was suppressing the Minotaur by relying on his superb fighting spirit and martial arts.

But now that he's gone berserk, he's suddenly become very difficult to deal with.

I glanced at Lord Li and found that he was still killing one person with one sword. It seemed that his frenzy was for nothing.

"Damn it, I can't lose my face in the fight!" Sikai cursed and also felt competitive.

Although there is no irreconcilable contradiction between holy light and fighting spirit.

But as long as they are different systems, there will be discrimination between them.

Those noble magicians looked down on the fighting knights who wielded swords and guns, and the fighting knights naturally looked down on the old-fashioned paladins.

Now, seeing a paladin who had practiced the "Book of Holy Words of Glory" becoming so popular in front of him, Sikai naturally could not bear it any longer.

"Full Moon Water Arc Cut!"

Facing the Minotaur that was being smashed by the huge hammer, he did not continue to dodge like he did before. Instead, he let out a low roar, and his whole body was wrapped in blue fighting spirit. The long sword in his hand, which was made of unknown material, was an extremely blue color.

Just as the giant hammer was about to fall on his head, the fighting spirit that had been accumulated enough was finally released from the sword.

Swish!
He swung his sword violently, and an arc of blue flame appeared behind him from head to crotch, instantly from the surface of the Minotaur's body.

There was a sizzling sound of grilled meat, and the Minotaur's huge body broke into two and collapsed.

Just when Sikai breathed a sigh of relief, a slap landed on his shoulder, scaring him so much that he almost swung his sword backwards.

"Lao Si, you are awesome! You cut a minotaur with one sword."

The Lord looked amazed.

It's not like he had never seen knights who had practiced fighting spirit when he was in the southern arena, but they were all just two-handed. They could only gather the fighting spirit on the sword to increase the lethality, or make the body temporarily burst out with strength and speed far beyond the original.

There are very few people like Sikai who can separate their fighting spirit from their bodies and have such strong destructive power.

But it's normal if you think about it. People with this kind of fighting spirit will participate in the martial arts competitions held by big shots. They won't participate in competitions or gladiatorial contests that only country bumpkins would go to.

Skye looked around and found that all the minotaurs had been dealt with. The harpies saw that they could not do anything and flew away to the horizon. While marveling at the strength of the orc guards of Highcliff Castle, he could not help but look helpless, "Sir, next time, can you please not suddenly appear behind others?" He sheathed his sword and patted the dirt off his body.

Compared to this lord, he is not even a hair better than him.

Just look at the minotaurs that were chopped in half and you will know what kind of inhumane slaughter they had just experienced.

Apart from anything else, the most popular title of "Bloody Waist-Beheading Hand" is absolutely worthy of this Lord Li.

"Lao Si, what material is your sword made of?"

Levi took off his helmet, put his arm around Sikai's shoulders and asked quietly.

As we all know, no matter what element of energy it is, there is a suitable carrier. For example, mithril can make the transmission of magic power extremely smooth.

Although fighting spirit can be carried by iron, after being used a few times, the sword made of iron will often shatter into pieces.

Just now, Levi saw Sikai use such a powerful move, but the sword in his hand didn't have any cracks at all, proving that this was definitely a specially made sword and must be worth a lot of money.

"Ok?"

Sikai was startled and quickly grasped the sword tightly in his hand, shaking his head wildly like a rattle.

"Sir, my sword is worthless, so don't pay attention to me. Oh, yes, yes, our legion commander, Fujiro, is also a master of fighting spirit. His sword is a famous sword. Compared with his, my sword is not even worth a scrap of copper and iron!"

The lord was furious. "Look, look, Lao Si, you said this. Am I that kind of person? I just want to understand."

Sikai's eyes clearly showed that he was just about to say: Sir, you are that kind of person!
I also got to know his BMW before and said I wanted to experience it firsthand, and then I just rode it.

Now I am getting to know his sword again. I can’t help but wonder if I will have to take a look at it and then put it in my pocket.

And look at your men, they have all formed a circle here on their own initiative, blocking outside the soldiers who wanted to come over. Isn't it obvious what kind of person you are?
However, Sikai did not dare to say this. He just held the sword tightly in his arms, trembling.

"Hey, look at you, I just wanted to ask."

Levi explained with a wry smile, it's just as pale as it can be.

Levi smacked his lips and kept the previous sentence in mind.

Of course, he couldn't rob people in broad daylight, but that didn't stop him from coming to identify the place in advance, so that when they died, it would be convenient for him to clean up the battlefield and take the things back.

Woo~
Suddenly, a desolate and low horn sounded from a hillside not far from here.

The next moment, countless Minotaur roared and rushed down from above. They were still hazy, obviously under some kind of spell.

"It's the haze technique!"

Sikai's face turned pale instantly and he let out a shrill scream.

It is estimated that three or four hundred of these Minotaurs are not enough to defeat them. It took a lot of effort to deal with just thirty of them just now. Now such a large number of Minotaur appeared behind the Legion of Thorns, which is definitely a devastating blow.

Blur is a concealment spell. The effect of its casting can make people seem as if they are covered by a layer of white crystal. If you take a quick look, you will find that the scenery is similar to that of the real person.

The fact that four or five hundred Minotaurs could be cast with the spell of obscurity at the same time proved that there was definitely a spellcaster with great skills on the opposite side.

This is the only way to sneak around behind the main force.

"Whether it's the airborne minotaurs or the sneak attacks from those troops, they are all pretexts. The real purpose is to draw our attention to these places!" Levi cursed and roared, "Damn it, everyone line up behind me!"

A dozen or so unharmed orc guards ran behind the lord.

Faced with the large number of Minotaurs, they held their weapons tightly. Although they did not say a word, their attitude said it all.

If the barbarians were to charge head-on into this number of Tauren, they would inevitably suffer casualties, no matter how brave they were.

The lord couldn't bear to part with these precious ones, so he naturally acted as the vanguard to bear all the pressure from the front, reducing their pressure by at least 70%.

"Sikai, be careful next time, don't die!" Levi patted Sikai on the shoulder and consoled him, "As long as we hold on and wait for my men to arrive, these stupid big guys won't be able to withstand a single blow!"

In order to speed up the march and provide quicker support, he brought more than a dozen personal soldiers with him.

It turned out that all of these were just a cover-up, and the real purpose was to cover up the Minotaur team and get behind them.

However, the prerequisite for doing all this is that there is a spellcaster on the opposite side.

Levi paid more and more attention to the spellcasting team of Gaoya Castle, and vowed to expand it when he returned this time. Even if he had to trick or kidnap them, he had to get a few magicians from the Vatican.

Damn, at worst I can just register in the Holy Light Church under the banner of a Paladin and trick as many Radiant Warlocks as I can.

Sikai just smiled bitterly and looked around. The archers of the Thorn Legion were obviously well disciplined and did not collapse in the face of the Minotaur's massive charge.

Under the command of the squad leaders, they formed a formation in the rear.

Unfortunately, their trembling calves proved that their hearts were far from being as calm as they appeared on the surface.

Simply put, there were only a dozen of them who could truly resist these hundreds of Minotaurs.

Not to mention holding out until reinforcements arrive, it's probably a question how long they can hold out against several rounds of arrow rain.

However, the Lord of High Cliff Castle understood that running away at this time would definitely lead to the defeat of the soldiers, and he naturally understood that as well.

He held the sword in both hands, held it horizontally in front of him, and walked to the same level as the lord. After all, he didn't feel comfortable hiding behind Lord Li.

Levi glanced at him without saying anything. It was just a man's self-esteem.

"I'm going to attack!" The lord roared and charged forward with full firepower.

The giant sword was swung violently in a half circle, and the majestic Minotaurs in front were easily chopped down like sugarcanes.

The blood vessels that were surging with blood lost their transmission position and spurted out directly from the incision in the lower body, pouring all over the lord's head like rain.

Gudong~
Sikai saw this extremely horrifying scene, with a look of shock as if he had seen the undead. How could a paladin who had just practiced the "Tome of Glory" do this?
When will the Paladin's physical strength be strengthened to this extent?
He silently wiped the blood off his face and moved back a few steps, standing shoulder to shoulder with Zat who was wearing a horned helmet. The two looked at each other, then turned away in silence, feeling extremely hot inside.

It seems...it seems...it seems that these Minotaurs are not that difficult to resist...
