The fighting continued until dawn. Www,QuanBeN-XiaoShuo,comArchbishop Nicholas remained motionless, just looking at where a group of strong men gathered at the top of the city.
None of the people around Salin moved, they all stayed on a section of the 500-meter-wide city wall. If they leave, Archbishop Nicholas will kill himself on the city walls. If Nicholas planned to attack in another location, Salin and others would also support him at the top of the city. The two sides monitored each other and remained in a stalemate until the battle came to an end.
Salin also did not expect that the enemy would adopt such a method. The people around him could not move, because neither he nor Nailis could participate in the battle. The remaining people could only fight against the old man in red robe by gathering together. The only people who can support other positions are some magicians and Eleanor.
However, there were very few intermediate magicians in Saleen's hands, and the abilities of the low-level magicians were offset by the divine magicians among the enemies. It was impossible for Elinor to guard the five-mile-wide city wall by herself.
The battle became very fierce. Salin didn't want this to happen, but he couldn't change the result. His army was to protect the merchants and civilians in the city. The nobles sent their troops up, and a dozen nobles with excellent swordsmanship even went to the city in person.
Even if you are accompanied by personal soldiers, this is still very dangerous. However, as the city lord, Salin has been supervising the battle at the top of the city. These nobles were inspired with courage and a sense of honor that never disappeared. The first emperor of Qin Yin said that nobles who can protect Pingliang are good nobles.
Qin was the first country to abolish slavery. There were a large number of civilians here, and they were also the main source of conscription. Whoever had more civilians would be stronger. Nobles who had abandoned the civilians would never be able to recruit new subjects.
Salin was not surprised that these nobles would eventually join the war. What surprised him was that the soldiers under the nobles were also very brave. However, he had strict control over such battles. Even when his eyes were red, he would leave the descendants of the nobles behind to prevent the nobles from becoming extinct.
The casualty ratio between the two sides was about one to three. In other words, if three expeditionary force soldiers were killed or injured, one Metatrin City soldier would be killed or injured.
Archbishop Nicholas appeared less than ten miles outside the city. At this time, the expeditionary force still had more than 70,000 troops.
After the death of the three kings, once the undead died and dissipated, no one could summon them anymore. After losing tens of thousands of undead, Metatron City had to send more troops for defense.
The only good thing is that on the defensive side, more people were injured than killed. After all, Salin had enough troops. Thousands of demon wolf knights were dispatched to the city. These Caucasians drove the demon wolves. When they saw seriously injured soldiers, they immediately asked the demon wolves to pick them back.
The throwing axes of the Caucasians and barbarians also played a huge role. The steel throwing axes were extremely lethal when thrown, even the enemy's heavily armored soldiers were injured. If you are only wearing light armor, a throwing ax can sometimes cause one death and one injury.
When the second battalion had more than two-thirds of its casualties, it retreated from the city and the third battalion advanced. The Sixth Battalion also headed west from the southern city wall at this time.
Seeing the believers dying one by one, Archbishop Nicholas's men were all frightened. With such a result, would they be able to survive after returning? When the sun rose from the ground, tens of thousands of troops fought hard.
Salin was also watching from the top of the city. The enemy still had more than 100,000 troops and had stopped attacking. The soldiers at the top of the city were quickly replaced. The third battalion was replaced by the fourth battalion. All the soldiers withdrew from the battle and the wounded were sent to the hospital. Medical camps provided by the town hall. Next time, I must use Broken Blade Yun to block the enemy.
Salin had been counting his own casualties. The death toll must be close to 100,000. This was something Salin did not expect. The enemy's fighting method is basically to exchange his own life with the opponent. Salin occupied a favorable location, but it was simply unbearable that so many soldiers died.
"Give Xi Fu an order to... not block the enemy." Salin looked at the more than 10,000 soldiers under the city. With more than 100,000 people, it is still a terrifying force. If Xifu's people attack, the casualties will exceed 10,000.
The sound transmission magic circle in the city hall can contact Xizhi, and Xizhi has been in seclusion. It was Salin's order. Even when Archbishop Nicholas later pushed up the 20,000 people from the rear, Salin did not let Xizhi's army Attack from behind.
Because even if I don't destroy this army of the Holy See, I won't be able to survive for more than a year. It's not worth fighting these people.
It is impossible for all the troops of the Holy See to be like this. The Pope made this move because there was no one available. Because of this bad strategy, Salin killed at least half more people. These soldiers controlled by divine magic have little sense of pain. Even if an arm is cut off, they can still fight vigorously.
When training, Salin's soldiers put more emphasis on discipline and have too little experience in killing. Facing this kind of enemy, there were a lot of mistakes at the beginning, which also caused some unnecessary attrition. Some soldiers shot through the enemy's lower abdomen. After throwing it out, they tried to attack another enemy, but were stabbed back by the seriously injured enemy.
From a normal point of view, it is impossible for a person who has been pierced in the lower abdomen to continue fighting, but the soldiers of the Holy See can, and their strength remains unchanged.
Only the alchemy arrows shot from the archery towers on both sides can kill the enemy in one go. There are not many Caucasians at the top of the city, and the barbarians' throwing axes can't deal with too many enemies either. A barbarian with five throwing axes on his body is enough.
What surprised Salin was that these barbarians were extremely helpful in boosting morale. None of the barbarians flinched. Facing an enemy who was like a madman, the barbarians seemed to be even crazier.
The two defensive points near Saleen suffered less casualties. Because of Tris's existence, she could use a long whip to kill enemies more than thirty meters away. At the end of the battle, there was blood everywhere on the city wall. The soldiers were not well prepared and could no longer stand firm. Only Salin's soldiers could still run in the thick pool of blood.
After the attack receded, no one cheered. The city was full of corpses, most of them from the expeditionary force. Among the corpses were seriously injured soldiers. They could no longer receive treatment from the magicians and could only die slowly.
Salin's nerves were very tense, and it was not until Archbishop Nicholas retreated with the remaining soldiers that he gave the order to clean up the battlefield.
A huge incinerator was prepared in the city, and the enemy's corpses were separated from the corpses of our own soldiers. Many slaves died in Salin, but the regular army wanted to bury the ashes.
Aini and Daniel both left the city. They went to take charge of this matter. There must be necromancers next to the incinerator, and the black smoke from burning corpses must be collected. These things are somewhat harmful to ordinary people, but for necromancers, But it is a rare equipment material.
Salin asked Sikka to fly higher. He saw Archbishop Nicholas's team slowly bypassing the West Town, and then ordered the mages at the top of the city to join in cleaning up the battlefield.
Saleen was very pleased to see the mage coming out. The casualties in this battle were several times higher than he expected, but none of the mage died in the battle. They were all safe in the buildings at the top of the city.
The defensive power of Dante's sequence allowed the magicians to only add some magic to their own warriors, but they were unable to destroy the buildings at the top of the city. Salin's magicians can hide inside and use magic to sneak attacks.
Now the low-level mage came out and began to use cleaning skills to deal with the blood on the ground. The giant eagle hovering in the sky has been waiting for the battle to end, wanting to come down and get a share of the war.
The giant eagles in the north are scavengers. Salin's soldiers did not go out to clean the city. These giant eagles became bolder and pounced on the ground to eat the corpses of the Holy See soldiers.
When Archbishop Nicholas completely disappeared from the observation distance of Salin's Elemental Eye, Salin said to Sikka: "Take me back to the temple, I'm so tired."
The five thousand jailers did not participate in the siege, but retreated early. Leading the five thousand jailers were two black-robed mages. These two feb-level magicians were in despair, and the black-clothed priests did not dare to disturb them. Although the strength of the twelve of them is definitely greater than that of two hateful guys, the killing methods of these two guys exceed that of the black priest.
If the death of the Golden Sword Master hadn't been too fragile, the two of them would definitely not have retreated in a hurry. But even the Golden Sword Master couldn't resist the power, and the two of them didn't dare to try.
If you record the images with the equipment and show them to the chief referee, you might get a reward. If you kill all the five thousand jailers, the reward will be gone.
The two magicians comforted themselves like this, but in fact they were already extremely scared. The Golden Sword Master was the pillar of their souls. Once this pillar fell, their confidence also collapsed with it.
You know, the combination of a golden sword master and two feb level magicians is absolutely terrifying. Now that the Golden Sword Master is dead, the feb-level magicians are powerful, but they no longer have that invincible power.
The enemy can control thunder and lightning, and the Golden Sword Master and his equipment were reduced to ashes under the lightning. Who else can resist such power
Not mentioning the retreating expeditionary force, Saleen returned to the temple and immediately reached the sixth floor. There was a room here specifically for healing. Salin soaked himself entirely in the healing water, and at the same time soaked his left hand, which was only a skeleton, in the magic fluid.
Salin was used to this kind of injury, and there were no cracks on his green bones. The power of thunder and lightning caused all the flesh and blood from his left hand to his wrist to be lost, and it would take about half a year to grow it back.
In the past six months, it would be impossible for Salin to advance to become a magician.
"Master!" Nailis recovered much faster than Salin. She entered Salin's room and was stunned when she saw that only Sikka was guarding him. However, she then thought that Salin could completely trust anyone except Sikka. He is Sika.
"Master, I know you want the body of the Brontosaurus." Nailis said, taking off the bracelet and placing it on the ground. She also knelt down in front of the crystal box and looked at Salin's injured hand. "Nelise, why did you change your gender? I thought you were going to come down in private." Salin asked with a smile. E! ~!
