A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

"The demons' lair is in the steel processing factory at the north end of the village. There are about 300 low-level demons, the kind you just saw, those monsters made from goblins..."

The young man wiped the tears from his face, now standing hunched over beside Shen Mu.

Trembling, he spoke of everything he knew.

At the same time, he looked around with fear, seeing the expressionless members of the Holy Tree Knight Order, and the even more intimidating Swadian knights wearing sleeveless plate armor and chainmail, their heads completely encased in great helms, with only a slit for observation. He swallowed hard and continued:

"But... in the lair, there are also more than 70 stronger demons. They are monsters modified from bear goblins, and they are very strong in combat..."

"Oh, I see," Shen Mu said, seemingly indifferent to the young man's warning.

However, he was extremely vigilant in his heart.

Raising the knight's sword in his hand, Shen Mu looked at the complex, narrow alleys leading into the village, and asked faintly:

"You know the way, right?"

"I..." The young man was immediately so frightened that his legs went weak, and he almost fell to the ground: "Can I not go? Just go straight along this road, and you can directly reach that factory area. The biggest one is the steel processing factory, with GG signs on it..."

But as he spoke, the seven or eight Swadian heavy cavalrymen beside him, wearing flat-topped helmets that revealed their faces and eyes, turned their necks expressionlessly and stared at him indifferently.

They also raised their hand-and-a-half swords.

The scene fell silent.

"I'll lead the way," the young man finally nodded tremblingly, his eyes filled with despair.

He had no choice at all.

"Please," Shen Mu said with a smile, looking at the young man and stepping aside to make way.

The young man could only dejectedly pick up his spirit world longsword, look at the narrow alley in front of him, and walk forward with courage, while also timidly saying:

"Big brother, I really have cut off contact with those demons. After all, you should also know that those demons in the spirit world like to bewitch people's hearts. Cooperating with them has really harmed me. They used me to summon many goblins and bear goblins. Now they see that my value has been used up, they want to kill me to silence me. I've really had enough of this place."

But no matter how much he babbled, Shen Mu still stood in place and didn't follow.

Instead, Fatis took two steps forward and then stopped again.

Looking at the narrow terrain in front of him, which was not conducive to wielding knight's swords or hand-and-a-half swords, he directly inserted the sword back into its scabbard and, with a backhand, took out the spiked mace hanging on the leather belt around his waist.

Behind Fatis, 10 Swadian knights and 20 Swadian heavy cavalrymen also drew their short-handled melee weapons.

All of them were spiked maces capable of breaking bones with a single blow, and even piercing armor, with tremendous armor-piercing power!

Use the right weapon for the right situation.

The other 20 Swadian heavy cavalrymen following at the rear directly drew the small 3-meter-long spears hanging on their backs, and re-shouldered them, ready to set up a spear phalanx at any time!

Because this alley was too long.

Looking far ahead, it was probably more than three hundred meters long, with small Western-style buildings on both sides, two or three stories high, making the environment extremely complex.

This was why Shen Mu didn't follow, but instead stood in place with the Holy Tree Knights and Holy Tree Cavalry, letting Fatis and the Swadian cavalrymen wearing sleeveless plate armor and heavy chainmail go ahead to scout the way.

In terms of defense, the equipment of these Swadian knights and Swadian heavy infantry was indeed stronger than that of the Holy Tree Knight Order members.

Perhaps it was because of the different positioning of the two sides.

Cluster charges require high defense to prevent enemies' weapons from easily breaking through.

The Holy Tree Knight Order, on the other hand, prefers to crush enemies with skill, so when their equipment meets the defensive requirements, they pay more attention to mobility and flexibility, thus abandoning some of the thickening defensive effects.

"Lord, something's not right," a Holy Tree Knight beside Shen Mu slowly said.

"Hmm?" Shen Mu prompted him to continue.

"This guy, I feel like there are lies in what he's saying," the Holy Tree Knight pondered for a few seconds, then said seriously: "I can't tell which of his words is a lie, but I feel like he's definitely mixing lies with the truth."

"Lord, we feel the same way," Not only him, but even the other Holy Tree Knights nodded one after another.

These were all Holy Tree Knights who had been tempered on the battlefield for a long time before being promoted.

In their spare time, they also studied aristocratic etiquette and prayed to the Holy Tree.

Therefore, in their minds, there was a natural connection to nature, a special sixth sense that could detect whether the other person was lying.

Although this sixth sense was very weak and not very accurate.

But the 10 Holy Tree Knights present all had a special feeling of revulsion and vigilance, as well as a faint aversion and dislike, towards the young man who had been discovered by the Swadian knights and dragged out of his hiding place!

"Is that so?" Shen Mu didn't deny the Holy Tree Knights' words.

After all, the world these Holy Tree Knights came from once truly possessed magic and gods, only to become the current low-magic world due to decline.

Moreover, even so, it still possessed the mysterious Holy White Oak Tree, the heretical beliefs of the Serpent Worship Cult.

Even possessing Nord Elves, possessing powerful artifacts.

A world where even dimensional portals and demons existed.

Then, with the top knights of the Holy Tree Knight Order, who were rumored to have a mysterious connection with the Noldor Elves, saying this, it was impossible for Shen Mu not to consider the reasons behind it.

"Let Fatis take the Swadian cavalry to see what's going on," Shen Mu still chose to wait and see.

He frowned slightly.

He looked up and vaguely saw the figures of Fatis and the young man at the very front of the 50 chainmail-clad figures.

He reached out and rested his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and turned his head to remind the members of the Holy Tree Knight Order behind him:

"Leave 10 Holy Tree Cavalry here to continue, and if there is a situation, immediately notify the 10 Swadian heavy cavalry who are also left at the village entrance to guard the warhorses, and have them support us."

"Understood," 10 Holy Tree Cavalry immediately and consciously left the team and stood guard at the entrance of the alley.

"Let's go too," Shen Mu said, stepping forward at this time.

The Holy Tree Knights and 40 Holy Tree Cavalry behind him immediately raised the spears in their hands and followed, while also vigilantly looking at the surrounding environment, their expressions becoming more solemn.

Up ahead, Fatis had already escorted the young man to the outside of the alley.

They hadn't encountered anything special in this alley.

So he led the Swadian knights and heavy cavalry to quickly disperse and form a line, occupying the area outside the alley and opening up a temporary position, waiting for Shen Mu and the others to come over.

When Shen Mu also passed safely through the alley.

The young man with tears still on his face was now even more terrified.

Especially when looking at the factory buildings in front of him, as well as the dozens of large trucks parked by the roadside, and the hundreds of small cars.

He couldn't help but swallow and pointed to the depths of the rows of factory buildings, saying, "It's in there."

He was pointing to the demons' lair.

Shen Mu looked up.

These factory buildings had been artificially covered up, and even the large iron doors of the factory buildings were tightly closed. Looking through the gaps, there was only a dark blackness and a faint gray mist.

Obviously, because sunlight couldn't reach these factory buildings, there must be remnants of the undead rules!

"Big brother, how about I lead the way here?"

The young man looked tremblingly at the closed rows of factory buildings, couldn't help but swallow, and said with a very frightened tone:

"I was about to escape this village, but you caught me again. Please have mercy, and for the sake of being Blue Star humans, let me go!"

"Shut up," Just then, the Swadian knight next to him snorted.

The young man was immediately so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything more.

He just trembled with a aggrieved voice and said: "Of course, you big brothers can tell at a glance that you are elite Terran soldiers from the Spirit Realm. If you don't mind me being a burden here, then it's not impossible for me to stay here..."

But the more he said, the quieter his voice became, and finally he chose to shut up.

No one likes a babbling guy.

"Looks like this is the place?" Shen Mu's eyes glanced over his retina.

The content in the dialog box was still flashing.

“Kill all evil creatures.” Shen Mu repeated the words of this temporary mission, then looked up at the factory building ahead again and asked, “Are you sure that the demons' lair is inside?”

“Of course, I'm sure!” The young man replied immediately, “I escaped from inside!”

As he spoke, he added, “This is also where those demons conduct their evil experiments. They will bewitch the Blue Star humans they encounter, willing to cooperate with them to summon many spiritual creatures to become parasites for these demons' evil, fallen souls, so that they can be active even during the day.”

“You are one of those who were bewitched?” Shen Mu's tone was indifferent.

“Yes… yes.” The young man lowered his head in despair, “If I hadn't realized that they would quickly exhaust my value and wanted to get rid of me after using me, I wouldn't have known that their methods were so ruthless. I actually dared to conspire with tigers before.” His voice was full of regret.

“But, what do you mean by leading us all here?”

Shen Mu suddenly asked.

“Ah… Ah?” The young man, who had been looking aggrieved, was slightly stunned at this moment.

Especially after hearing Shen Mu's words, his words faltered, and his tone became more and more trembling with genuine surprise:

“I say, big brother, you clearly asked me to lead the way! How did it become me leading you here?”

The young man's voice was tinged with a bit of sobbing:

“Big brother, we are all Blue Star humans, don't abandon me after using me!”

“Abandon you after using you? Not necessarily.” Shen Mu's tone was still calm, but the hand holding the sword hilt slowly tightened, and he slowly pulled out a small portion of the knight's sword from its scabbard.

'Clang!' Along with this, the surrounding knights and cavalrymen all drew their knight's swords and hand-and-a-half swords again.

They held them in their hands, the cold light flickering, like a mirror, reflecting the dark red blood and the eerie chill.

These knights and cavalrymen were ready for battle the moment Shen Mu spoke!

And Shen Mu was still speaking: “Then you need to explain why there are so many goblins and hobgoblins, who you say have been parasitized by demons, ambushing around this factory building?!”

Just as Shen Mu's voice fell, the young man, who had seemed extremely aggrieved, took off running towards the front.

The speed was astonishingly fast.

Even faster than a normal person could run!

Moreover, the young man's face no longer had the slightest bit of his previous grievances, but instead carried a triumphant shout:

“Uncle! Quickly, let the villagers come out! This time, we've got a big fish!”

This sudden scene even caught the knights who were guarding the surroundings off guard, as they hadn't paid close attention to him.

By the time they reacted, they had already watched the young man run seven or eight meters away.

The heavy armor provided excellent defensive capabilities, but in this short-distance sprint, it was clearly inferior to the young man who was only wearing a robe.

Then they could only watch him turn a corner and rush to a stop next to the factory building.

Breathlessly, he turned around and looked at Shen Mu and Fathes, as well as these heavily armored knights and cavalrymen, his face full of triumphant and twisted sneers:

“You!”

“You've been fooled, haven't you!”

Then he let out an extremely triumphant laugh, his appearance extremely rampant.

And his attitude was extremely arrogant!

“All personnel!”

Then, Fathes's eyes seemed to catch something, and he suddenly drew his knight's sword and shouted angrily, “Prepare for battle!”

“Prepare for battle!”

At this time, whether it was the Swadian cavalry or the Holy Tree Knights, all drew their weapons and quickly moved forward, directly centering on Shen Mu, and gathered into a hollow circular formation in the direction of the alley and the parking lot.

Because all around, on the many small western-style buildings that they had passed on the way here, dense dark red figures had already appeared.

It was precisely those goblins parasitized by demons that they had fought fiercely before.

A group of parasitic monsters!

And next to that young man, in the parking lot toll station outside the factory building, a dozen figures also followed his arrogant laughter, one by one carrying or holding scimitars and battle axes, walking out from inside.

Each of their faces carried the same arrogant appearance, and they were even looking at the cavalrymen beside Shen Mu…

Their mouths were watering!

But they didn't have the slightest bit of fear, as if they had completely determined that they could handle Shen Mu and these human cavalrymen who were wearing heavy armor and looked difficult to provoke!

“Hahahaha! It seems that this time, the city people we lured over… are really a big fish!”

“This time, we can sacrifice a batch of creatures stronger than hobgoblins to that lord and summon even stronger high-level demons!”

“By then, our Sun Family Village's current 146 households and 785 people will be considered to have brought glory to our ancestors!”

“We can also be considered… to have been granted land and made kings!”

“Hahahahaha!”

These words immediately drew even more arrogant and rampant laughter from the people around them.

They simply didn't put Shen Mu and the others in their eyes.

As a result, the two types of cavalrymen in front of them, who had already lined up shoulder to shoulder in a circular formation, and had all switched from nail-headed hammers and hand-and-a-half swords to shields and spears, had increasingly gloomy faces.

For them, this was almost a humiliation!

No.

This was a humiliation!

Not to mention these two types of knights, even the Tier 4 Swadian Heavy Cavalry or the Tier 4 Holy Tree Cavalry were already quite respected existences in their respective forces.

They were no longer ordinary Tier 3 troops, but could be considered true elite troops.

Then they were wantonly commented on and arrogantly ridiculed by a group of people on the battlefield.

This sense of humiliation.

Had already made these knights and cavalrymen's hearts burn with anger, and they gnashed their teeth so hard that they clicked.

It was just that they were now dismounted and fighting on foot due to the complex environment.

If they were in a slightly more open place, they would now be riding on their warhorses, and they would have to spur their horses forward and charge towards those guys who were only thirty meters away.

Let them know what the cruelty brought by a cavalry charge was!

“……” Even Shen Mu's face was a little strange now.

He was not angered by those guys who were obviously Blue Star humans taunting him, nor was he afraid of the parasitic monsters with dark red skin that had appeared on the surrounding walls, numbering in the hundreds or even thousands.

It was very normal.

Because Shen Mu subconsciously glanced at the dialog box that appeared on his retina again.

It still asked him to kill all evil.

And the rewards after this was over.

Were indeed only 1000 denars and 2 random bronze treasure chests.

“……” Shen Mu fell silent again.

According to his understanding of the system.

If he wasn't mistaken, then after the Mount \u0026 Blade system scanned his surroundings, discovered the abnormal situation in this village, and analyzed the energy fluctuations and level fluctuations, including combat power and other factors, this temporary mission was generated.

It only represented one conclusion—

These things.

Were really too weak!

So weak that Shen Mu and Fathes, plus 120 Tier 5 knights and Tier 4 cavalrymen.

Could sweep through these parasitic monsters.

Could…

Obtain a victory in a massacre with only a slight level of tension!

This couldn't really be considered a battle in the true sense, it was a complete and utter massacre about to begin for Shen Mu and his knights and cavalrymen!

But now, Shen Mu discovered that these Blue Star humans who had lured them over, attempting to sacrifice them to the demons, as well as the hundreds, or even hundreds of thousands, of parasitic monsters formed by the evil souls of the demons occupying the flesh.

Simply didn't realize this!

“Hahahaha!”

“Kill!”

“Kill them!”

They were still laughing triumphantly, commanding the parasitic monsters that filled the two-story western-style buildings and surrounded their bodies, opening their fangs and claws and rushing up, wanting to crush Shen Mu and the others in one wave!

They simply hadn't noticed the short, easily slaughtered results that had appeared at the village entrance before by Shen Mu and these knights and cavalrymen.

Thus, the battle broke out again!

“Kill!”

Those parasitic monsters that appeared from the surrounding high points directly pounced over again.

Wanting to use their numerical advantage, numbering in the hundreds and thousands, to swallow up Shen Mu and the others in one gulp, knowing that their souls would be extremely delicious. Taking them to the ninth level of hell for a corruption ritual could even transform these human soldiers into even stronger devils!

These parasite monsters, manipulated by devils, didn't care about the threat of death at all.

Anyway, it was just these parasite monsters that were dying.

Those devils would return to the ninth level of hell. At the very least, they could obtain the original souls of these parasite monsters that they had already controlled.

No matter what, it wasn't a loss.

If they could take away the souls of some human soldiers during this opportunity.

That would be a huge profit!

Therefore, these parasite monsters started charging forward without any regard for anything.

Because the devils inside these parasite monsters all knew that only by entering the chaotic battle would they have a chance to fish in troubled waters.

Wanting to engage in a proper fight.

Based solely on these bodies of goblins or hobgoblins that they controlled, which were originally just captured from the outside.

That was simply wishful thinking!

And in front of them, the Swadian soldiers and the members of the Holy Tree Knights, seeing these parasite monsters that were as short as gnomes but moved relatively quickly and fiercely charging over.

They also felt it was wishful thinking.

"Everyone! Stand your ground!"

Shen Mu's command appeared in everyone's ears first, without the slightest fear or panic.

Only resolute confidence.

This also increased the confidence of the Swadian cavalry and Holy Tree Knights around him.

"For Swadia!"

"For the Sacred White Oak!"

They shouted in unison, bending their bodies down, lowering their center of gravity, so they could withstand more violent impacts.

At the same time, they thrust forward the sharp and high-quality spears in their hands.

Instantly blocking the crimson tide that surged from all directions in place.

'Puff, puff, puff, puff!'

Along with the sound of sharp spearheads entering flesh, batches of parasite monsters wailed and fell directly in front of these cavalrymen, who were already full of anger and extremely ruthless.

So much so that when the number of parasite monsters charging over in front of them became more and more, forming a spear hedgehog that was somewhat unable to defend, they resolutely chose to throw away the spears in their hands and draw out their knight's swords or hand-and-a-half swords.

Then, they began to slash and stab even more fiercely at these parasite monsters in front of them!

Compared to the spears that could only poke and stab, leaving a penetrating wound or a blood hole.

These long sword-like weapons, when slashing, easily cut through the flesh of the parasite monsters, and the heavy slashing even directly split open the bones inside the flesh.

In addition, whether it was a knight's sword or a hand-and-a-half sword, it could perfectly cooperate with the shield on the left arm, thrusting out after blocking.

Flexible, versatile, and deadly.

Killing those parasite monsters caused even more casualties in the short minutes after switching to these one-handed weapons!

Moreover, the visual effect of these long swords bringing about slashing and killing was even more prominent!

That's right, it was even more prominent!

Every time the sharp knight's sword or hand-and-a-half sword fell, these parasite monsters could only use their arms or bodies to bear it head-on.

Then, whether it was an arm or a shoulder, it would instantly be cut off by the sharp knight's sword or hand-and-a-half sword.

The wounds on their bodies had the flesh turned outwards, and even half of their bodies were cut open.

Extremely terrifying!

However, these parasite monsters were controlled by the evil souls of devils and were not afraid of life and death at all.

Because they had no way to use various weapons to kill the enemy, as they did when they were alive as qualified spirit creatures.

Or equip themselves with suitable armor to avoid excessive damage.

The devils didn't care whether these spirit creatures had armor or whether they would die.

Or rather, if these spirit creatures died, it would be more in line with the devils' favorite idea of ​​seducing creatures, deceiving their trust, and then letting them die in pain, turning into fallen souls.

Fallen souls are an important raw material for the composition of devils, and also the property that devils need to obtain promotion.

So, at this time, letting these parasite monsters go to their deaths.

It was simply too normal!

As a result, right in front of Shen Mu, these parasite monsters really died in batches.

However, for Shen Mu and the knights or cavalry around him, it didn't cause much impact at all, not even a minor injury!

Even if there were parasite monsters, taking advantage of the fact that there were too many of them, rushing to the front.

If they were lucky, they wouldn't be chopped by the long sword, nor would they be slapped away by the shield.

Truly and properly, they encountered the bodies of the knights or cavalry who were close at hand, opened their mouths full of sharp teeth, or used their claws, and pounced directly.

'Crack!'

But as the sharp teeth in their mouths and the sharp teeth on their claws were blocked by the sleeveless plate armor or chainmail, and could only helplessly make a crisp sound of something breaking.

These parasite monsters, which relied mainly on luck to get close to the knights and cavalry to launch attacks, were either smashed in the head with the hilt of the sword from top to bottom like a hammer, causing their heads to burst open.

Or they were reacted to by other knights and cavalry who pulled out the spiked maces from their belts and smashed them hard on the head.

They still died beyond death!

"These parasite monsters... are really too weak."

Fatis was carefully protecting Shen Mu by his side, and he even had the leisure and energy to chat with Shen Mu as if he were chatting.

"Yes."

Shen Mu nodded. At this time, he was also easily fighting, wearing a shield on his left hand and wielding a knight's sword in his right hand.

In this short period of time, at least a dozen or twenty parasite monsters had died in Shen Mu's hands.

Even the emotion that this kind of ease brought to Shen Mu was particularly calm.

Because these parasite monsters were too weak.

During the battle, Shen Mu didn't feel too much excitement, nor did Shen Mu feel much fear. It was like work done to complete a task, boring and uninteresting!

This was not good.

At least for Shen Mu, this kind of simple battle was no wonder it was only worth 1,000 denars and 2 copper treasure chests.

There was not much challenge.

Even less, much enthusiasm.

"Fatis, do you think there will be danger in the next battle if we disperse these round formations?"

Shen Mu suddenly asked at this time.

"No."

Fatis directly stabbed a parasite monster that dared to approach with the knight's sword in his hand, and replied very calmly without the slightest fluctuation in his tone:

"These inferior parasite monsters are the weakest monsters I have encountered since coming to this world!"

He even used the word 'weakest'.

It also represents that Fatis's current mood is also extremely complicated.

"Then I have a plan."

Shen Mu suddenly said.

This immediately made Fatis slightly stunned, and then he turned his head to look at him: "Mr. Shen Mu, what plan?"

"Those guys who are still watching the show are a bit annoying. Can you come with me to kill them?"

Shen Mu's words were very plain, but the indifference in his voice had turned into killing intent.

The gaze was also directed towards the factory, because they saw that Shen Mu and these knights and cavalry were so powerful in combat, and the smiles on their faces began to disappear, and they stood there dumbfounded, somewhat at a loss, those Blue Star humans!

"Of course."

Fatis replied affirmatively.

"Then follow me..."

Shen Mu instantly moved forward, took the initiative to break away from the round formation that had not been deformed at all after a fierce battle, and strode forward: "Kill!"

"Kill!"

Fatis seemed to be encouraged at this time, and followed without the slightest hesitation.

At the same time, the 10 Holy Tree Knights who had been acting as Shen Mu's bodyguards, raised the knight's sword in their hands, with Shen Mu as the arrowhead and they as the edge, and killed towards the Blue Star humans!

"Disperse! Outward! Kill!"

At the same time, the remaining 10 Swadian knights, 40 Swadian heavy infantry, and 40 Holy Tree cavalry all rushed outwards.

The standard round formation immediately disintegrated.

But what appeared now was like a deadly flower blooming among countless crimson parasite monsters, showing its unique, killing charm!

Even more so, a group of human soldiers completely clad in heavy armor, an elite force from the Mount \u0026 Blade world, seasoned and tested in countless battles, now displayed their essence as battlefield killing machines, slaughtering with abandon these parasitic monsters who, though fearless of death, were mere targets in their eyes!

Indeed, for the Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers, these crimson, repulsive parasitic monsters…

Were no different from the targets in the training grounds!

And for Shen Mu, who was leading Fatis and the 10 Holy Tree Knights, charging forward, wielding his knightly sword, and directly slaying any parasitic monsters that couldn't dodge in time.

It was just as simple as practicing knightly sword techniques with a group of living targets in the training grounds!

It was so sudden that those who were still dumbfounded, watching this scene as if countless knights and cavalry were unleashing a massacre, their minds were completely blank, seeing the parasitic monsters controlled by terrifying demons from hell.

In the past, whether they were actively deceiving their fellow Blue Star humans,

Or encountering Blue Star humans who came to search for supplies.

It could be said that they had never seen anyone as capable as Shen Mu and his group, a terrifying force that completely exceeded their common sense and understanding!

Moreover, while Shen Mu was wantonly slaughtering these parasitic monsters with his knightly sword,

His mind instantly communicated with the system:

“Use skill, Bee Swarm Harassment!”

‘Buzz!’

Almost as soon as Shen Mu's mind communicated with the system, a white light emerged from his brow.

A refreshing sensation flowed from his heart.

Then, as Shen Mu raised his left hand, it transformed into a small, emerald green ball of light enveloped in a white data stream, interspersed with faint dark red light, and shot forward!

‘Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz!’

Then, a piercing buzzing sound of vibrating wings appeared dozens of meters away, on those Blue Star humans whose faces were already extremely frightened and beginning to react, wanting to escape.

They had already realized that something was wrong.

Watching Shen Mu and his group break through layers of parasitic monsters, originally transformed from low-level spiritual creatures like goblins and hobgoblins, forming a tidal wave-like defense.

And without any hindrance, they wielded their longswords, leaving behind corpses of parasitic monsters along the way.

Of course, they would be afraid.

Being afraid, of course, they would turn around and run, quickly leaving this place!

Escaping for their lives is human nature.

If they weren't afraid of death, then they wouldn't have chosen to cooperate with those demons.

Now, the fruits of cooperation with the demons, facing true death and slaughter, were completely useless, leaving only the massacre happening before their eyes.

The demons they relied on were the ones being slaughtered.

Who would be willing to stay?

No one wanted to be that fool!

“Wait? What's that sound?”

“Are there bees?”

“What kind of bees are these!?”

But before these people could run two steps, they discovered that dozens, even hundreds, of bees, the size of soccer balls, radiating black light, had appeared around them.

They carried tail stingers as thick as little fingers and over ten centimeters long, like crossbow bolts.

Vibrating their palm-wide bee wings, they quickly adjusted their direction in mid-air, aimed at them, and fiercely stung them!

The sharp and hard tail stinger, with the powerful force generated by the vibrating wings, was truly like a crossbow bolt.

The Blue Star humans, who had never expected such a terrifying swarm of bees, were stung and cried out in agony!

Two or three unlucky guys who were directly stung in vital areas groaned twice, let out a shrill scream, and fell to the ground, convulsing and losing their breath within a short ten seconds.

But even those Blue Star humans around them who weren't stung in vital areas were staggering and stumbling.

After taking two steps, their faces turned faintly black, and they fell headfirst to the ground.

Gasping for breath, spitting out bloody foam.

They were clearly about to die!

This is the characteristic of killer bees.

After being strengthened by divine power, the effects of the Level 2 natural magic were no longer simple to measure by the magic level of Level 2.

Because these summoned killer bees were almost all queen bee level.

Moreover, they were extremely aggressive and also had venom that could paralyze enemies.

For low-level personnel…

Venom and damage that could cause huge killing effects!

For example, the twenty or thirty Blue Star humans who had originally gathered together, after running only a dozen meters, were all chased by these mobile and agile killer bees, and were stung and fell to the ground one after another.

Wailing, spitting out blood and white foam, their eyes filled with extreme pain and despair.

‘Clang!’

Then, Shen Mu, who had caught up from behind, wielded his knightly sword and directly inserted it into the hearts of these fallen Blue Star humans.

He deeply stabbed them, and when he pulled it out, he rotated it half a circle, completely destroying the heart.

After making sure that these Blue Star humans were dead beyond any doubt, he continued to raise the knightly sword in his hand and chased after those Blue Star humans who were still running away.

He didn't want to let go of these guys who dared to set up an ambush for him.

Most importantly.

Based on the judgment from the temporary mission system, Shen Mu didn't know whether these Blue Star figures counted as one of the so-called evils.

Therefore, Shen Mu would rather kill the wrong person than let one go!

“Kill!”

Fatis shouted with pleasure.

Especially watching those Blue Star humans who were extremely arrogant just now, and who had humiliated them to the extreme, being constantly stung and knocked to the ground by the killer bees that were the size of soccer balls.

Excitement flowed from his eyes.

Although he was a good person.

A knight who possessed compassion for the weak and prisoners.

But it didn't mean that on the battlefield, he, Fatis, would have compassion for these enemies who could kill him at any time and had insulted his honor!

The enemies on the battlefield, and the civilians outside the battlefield, as well as the prisoners after the battlefield ended…

Were completely different!

This included those Holy Tree Knights, who were also raising the knightly swords in their hands, quickly swinging or stabbing.

Accurately hitting the necks or hearts of those Blue Star humans.

Ending the lives of these poor ghosts who had been stung by the spiritual killer bees and were enduring great pain.

“For the Holy White Oak!”

“For Swadia!”

And right in the alley, at this time, there were sudden loud roars.

The 10 Holy Tree cavalrymen who were originally left behind on the opposite side of the alley had already notified the 10 Swadian heavy cavalrymen who were still left outside the village, and they rode their fully armored warhorses, raising their hand-and-a-half swords in their hands, charging out of the alley.

The 10 Swadian heavy cavalrymen, whose men and horses were all in chain mail, charged in front.

The 10 Holy Tree cavalrymen, whose warhorses were not armored, and who focused more on control and agility, followed behind.

‘Rumble!’

The sound, like a flood breaking a dam, began to echo in the narrow alley.

These 20 cavalrymen entered a charging state, even without directly attacking with spears and longswords, relying solely on the power and inertia of the heavy cavalry itself charging, and the weight brought by the men and horses.

Any parasitic monsters encountered along the way were sent flying like rotten wooden stakes being smashed open!

Then, they crashed heavily on the ground, scattered like rags, slumped there, their bones concave inward, motionless and breathless.

Obviously, they were directly seriously injured by these Swadian heavy cavalrymen who were running quickly!

No parasitic monster could stop the charge of these heavy cavalrymen.

They easily rushed out of the alley.

Then, they came to this parking lot, where there were more, more fearless, all over the place, blood-red parasitic monsters.

They raised the hand-and-a-half swords or longswords in their hands and immediately joined the battle!
