Chapter 326: Meaningless casualties (Part 2)

No matter how strong Salin's calculation ability is, he can't understand such meaningless sacrifice. What are these soldiers and the old man in red robe?

Is it faith to send so many lives and die on the battlefield?

In the eyes of magicians, there must be rewards for their efforts. This world is balanced, but these believers only know how to execute commands - the so-called oracles.

God said, there should be light, and so there will be light.

Salin suddenly understood why so many magicians in the world had to oppose the rule of the Holy See. If the Holy See ruled the world, then the inheritance of the magician would be cut off.

The magician doubts everything, including the gods.

"Before dark, let the mercenaries be responsible for the defense, and the second battalion will be withdrawn." Salin issued the order tiredly, and then said, "Uncle Ferett, you can stay here. Tonight, that guy may launch an attack, and even our people can't stop it."

"Don't worry." The Fellets replied with a smile. Although they were very uneasy, Salin had already handed them six level nine magic scrolls and had to test them. If they could kill a golden swordsman, it would be of great help to their future practice.

From level 8 magician cultivation to level 9, there is not much obstacle to crossing, but it takes a lot of time. The Fellets and his wife don’t know about the six-yuan space, so of course they are reluctant to give up the opportunity in front of them.

Within the range of attacks by the Expeditionary Force, the soldiers of the Second Battalion retreated and allowed the temporarily recruited mercenaries to rise up. However, the walls of Metatlin City were too wide. In fact, the Second Battalion did not withdraw from the city head, but just rested in the buildings on the city head, removed their armor, and began to rest.

If the enemy's main force is not in contact, there is no need for Salin to make his main force wait nervously.

It was dark in a blink of an eye, and the fire was shining under the city, and the siege continued. Even the nervous mercenaries on the city were able to see that such an attack was meaningless.

The mercenaries were not without casualties, but the enemy's steel rifles still caused certain blows to the mercenaries. The mercenaries' equipment was not as good as Salin's second battalion. The heavy infantry in the second battalion, even if they were hit by big arrows shot by hanging, were mostly protected by heavy armor. The helmets of the heavy infantry can defend against alchemy crossbows.

If a large arrow is shot and does not penetrate, it will at most cause minor injuries to the heavy infantry. If it is rescued, it will be cured with magic and can recover in one week.

The mercenary's armor and defense against ordinary bows and arrows are barely enough. Fortunately, the enemy's slinging shooting only steel rifles can fly to the city wall across five hundred meters, but they have no accurate heads.

The war loss ratio between the two sides reached one to ten. Because the enemy soldiers injured on the top of the city could no longer receive treatment from the magician, Salin did not want any prisoners, so the morale of the mercenaries stabilized.

If one person dies on his side, at least ten enemies will die. Mercenaries can still accept such battles. If mercenaries encounter strong enemies in normal times, they rely entirely on the advantage of numbers. Otherwise, a one-to-one loss ratio can make morale high.

After several hours of battle, less than 500 mercenaries died, but more than 3,000 injured people. The wounded were robbed and sent back to the city wall to settle.

With so many casualties, more than a dozen small mercenary groups have been rotated, and the mercenaries are actually very excited.

Seeing that the 100,000 troops were blocked by the city wall, the city lord held on and gradually calmed down. On the side of the city hall, hundreds of nobles went to find Daniel, wanting to send their own soldiers to participate in the defense.

Because many laws in Salin's city have not yet been finalized, Daniel's handling is also troublesome. These nobles wrote down contracts temporarily, promising to bring out everything they have to help Metatron survive this difficulty.

Salin accidentally came to the front line and stayed at the city wall, which made the nobles feel trust.

Because in Qin Yin, this behavior means that the city mainly survives and dies with the city and will never escape. The nobles also have their own glory. These nobles are unwilling to surrender to the Holy Palace or the Holy Rock City, and of course they also have certain courage. Since Salin does not escape, they are willing to help Salin.

Salin was waiting at the top of the city. He knew that as late as the night came, the enemy's main force would take action.

At twenty-two, the magic bell at the head of Salin's bed rang. Salin opened his eyes and saw Shika beside him.

"Why don't you sleep?" Looking at Shika, Salin felt at ease and relaxed.

"It won't be a long battle. I used an alchemy telescope to observe the enemy's camp. There were only a few hundred people guarding the place where food was stored. They had no food, and the battle would end at most two or three days." Shika's words were clear, which was very different from her usual confusion.

"Oh? You can still fight?"

"Of course, I am the earth priest. In ancient times, the earth priest could command more than 100,000 Caucasians, which was much better than the officers under your command." Sika said proudly.

"Sika, even if that Golden Sword Saint was killed by me, the two guys around him were still very strong. You can't deal with it alone..."

"Sarin, don't persuade me. I brought two hundred Caucasians to stay by your side. If the two mages dare to approach, I will fly over and knock them to death with a stick."

"Sika, it's just a mage. You can indeed be killed by you when you are close to you, but a mage of this level may have relatively powerful equipment in his hands. Look, my badge can kill the Golden Sword Saint. If they have similar equipment, you will be in danger." Salin said nervously.

Xika touched the bone necklace on his neck and said to Salin: "What I am afraid of is the Golden Sword Saint. If you can kill him, I will not be afraid of the other two mages."

"No matter what, don't take risks and stay on the wall. Near Neris and the others, even the eighth-level magicians can't kill us in an instant."

"Sarin, why didn't Ireno call Elino?" Sika knew that if Elino had archery skills, it would be easier to calculate the Golden Sword Saint.

"I won't say this...I will still not talk about it. Erinno has another task."

"Master, you're awake!" Neris broke into the room. Behind her, there were two more demons, but Rola and Eva.

"Aren't you letting you protect the Ferrets!" Salin scolded him when he saw Neris. Killing the Golden Sword Saint, the Ferrets were the key. Apart from these two people, no one in the city could unfold the level nine magic scroll.

"Eni is here, he has arranged the undead magic and his summoning creatures. Ferret will not be in trouble. Master, I am worried, if Sister Shika follows you, she will be in danger." Neris said flatteringly. Sika also smiled. Neris didn't care about Ferret and the others, she only cared about Sarin. However, Neris was unwilling to directly violate Sarin's orders, so she would make excuses to fight side by side with Sika, and would not make Sarin angry.

"Ha..." Salin laughed for a while, knowing what Naris was thinking.

"How is the attack under the city?" Shika didn't say these nonsense, she cared more about things than Nelis thought.

"The second battalion has been replaced, and casualties have been reduced."

"How many people died in total?"

"It's still less than a thousand, but the enemy has suffered more than ten thousand casualties, and we have captured some." Nelise explained patiently.

"What do you want to be a prisoner?" Salin said angrily. These are all believers of the Lord of Glory, and they will sooner or later be eliminated.

"Judicoko needs to study it to see if it can eliminate the magical arts in their bodies."

"Judicoko..." Salin's heart moved. What Judyoko was studying is definitely not what he said. It is estimated that the divine art controls these believers, and his contract controls the three kings, Judyoko wants to break away from control. His actions must be stepped up.

But I can't do it myself, otherwise the contract will be backfired. If the two level nine magicians give orders, it will be the same. This kind of thing can only be done by Neris.

"Master, I understand. There are not many prisoners, and I will bring them to destroy the souls of these prisoners." The two demons behind Nelise also smiled at Salin with a flattering smile.

Salin was relieved that Nelis had grown up and thoughtful, and was no longer the little demon who could deceive. Judy Koko was so cunning, and was also under Nelis's calculations.

"Let them go, Neris, you and me, go and watch the battle." Salin didn't wash his face, and directly imposed a cleaning technique on himself, took Salin and Shika out of the room.

The rooms at the top of the city are arranged in accordance with the rules of the Dante sequence. There are only two layers in total, and below two layers, they penetrate deep into the city wall. The top of the city wall is fifty meters thick and the foundation is sixty meters thick. Such a thick city wall can no longer be considered a wall, and there are hollow warehouses every few hundred meters.

If the defenders at the city wall do not change their defenses, they do not need to go down the city and get supplies.

There is actually only one window in Salin's observation position. His Elemental Eye can see the movements in the enemy's camp, including the mobilization of the enemy's magician. Returning to this commanding room, Salin sighed in his heart that if the magic tower is established, he can command everything in the temple without facing the direct threat of the Golden Sword Saint.

Thirty-six magic towers, let alone the Golden Sword Saint, even Joey or Farka cannot break in.

In the camp in the distance, the flames were connected. Salin saw that the main force of the expeditionary army had not gathered and knew that he was not too late. The second battalion came back up, and the third battalion also stepped on the city wall and was ready to support at any time.

About two thousand barbarian archers, and more than three thousand Caucasians, equipped with flying axes and hard bows, entered the defense point. Everything was ready, and we were waiting for the strongest attack from the enemy.

Why did the three strong men of the Black Armor Army refuse to participate in the siege in person? Salin couldn't figure it out. It was not his fault. He did not expect that the conflicts within the Holy See were so serious.

After several hours of continuous attack, the Expeditionary Force lost more than 10,000 yuan, and the people from the referee only thought that they had not seen it. If they kept fighting so slowly, Salin would lose up to 20,000 people, which would cause the Expeditionary Force to be wiped out.
