Lord of Lowland

Chapter 47 The Battle of Mithril

When Cecil learned that Bosa's teacher died naturally and was not harmed by demons, he gained a new understanding of demons. It seems that demons are not cruel regardless of everything, and they also know how to treat human beings who are useful to them. Huairou use.The three demon mages just now are obviously cunning people, and the far-reaching demons seem to be not as easy to deal with as I imagined.

"Besides these Mithril, do you have any other stocks here?" Cecil asked, if possible, he didn't want to miss anything of value
"My lord, these mithrils have been produced for more than 60 years!" Bosa said in horror, and Cecil's lack of greed made him feel deeply disturbed
"The devil has kept these mithril here for 60 years?" Cecil obviously couldn't imagine that the devil could be so stupid.

"Several demon lords have been arguing about how to distribute these mithrils, so no one has dared to touch these mithrils for so many years, otherwise a fire may start. Recently, various human kingdoms have suddenly increased a large number of demons. The strength of the troops around the gate, the lord may be afraid that this mine vein will be discovered, so these three adults came today to transport the mithril away, unexpectedly "Bosa stopped talking here and looked at Sisi silently. I glanced at you.

Unexpectedly, he was robbed by himself before it was transported away. Cecil couldn't help but secretly surprised and thankful. What surprised him was that such a rich ore vein could only produce so much mithril in 60 years. The most precious resource in the world, fortunately, I arrived even if I arrived, otherwise I might not be able to get so much Mithril in my life.

At this time, Anne suddenly sensed that there were troops approaching from the direction of Solo City. Cecil hurriedly rushed towards them. Not far away, she saw Count Kasikud leading Yellen, Sanders and 200 soldiers towards the city. Came here.

Count Kasikud was also very excited after receiving Sanders' report. There are some things that people at Cecil's level may not know, but the count knows very well that Mithril is the resource that the kingdom is desperately short of now. Is it Cabrada or the Kingdom and other countries are buying Mithril at high prices, of course not with money, but with various scarce strategic materials, and even Cabrada recently sold it in exchange for Mithril The high-level spell scroll that I have been forbidden to sell.

Although mithril has always been a scarce strategic resource, it has never been so sought after recently. Although the earl does not know why the high-level people suddenly need so much mithril, but if possible, the earl also hopes to Some achievements have been made in this regard.So as soon as Sanders heard the report, he immediately brought all his elite troops here.

Cecil's report made Earl Kasikund overjoyed, and he couldn't help but annihilated all the defenders here. More importantly, he even got 4 boxes of Mithril in stock. It was impossible for Cecil to estimate, but the Earl knew Knowing their value, any mage guild or even Cabrada or even the temple will be crazy about this amount of mithril. Even in the entire kingdom, there are only 3 mithril mines, and the quality of the veins is far inferior to this. Trading units are calculated in grams.It is self-evident what so much mithril means to the upper echelon of the kingdom that is in urgent need of acquisition.

Cecil immediately reported to the earl that the demons were likely to have powerful reinforcements arriving. In order to avoid the nightmare, the earl wanted to retreat as soon as possible. When Sanders reported back, he did not say that there was ready-made mithril to be transported, so The earl and his party all set out on light cavalry.No carriage had been brought, but the count hitched his horse to the carriage without hesitation, and the whole party immediately retreated.

About half an hour after the earl's team retreated, the demon's troops rushed here. This 1500-man army consisted of 1000 blade demons, 200 elite blade demons, and 300 bloodthirsty demons. In addition, there were 9 A 9th-level demon mage. Legend has it that there are 12 demon mages in a spell-casting team, which happens to be able to cast large-scale demon magic. It seems that the three demon mages killed by Cecil happen to be members of this team.

Leading this team is a sharp blade demon.The skin of this blade demon is brighter red than that of ordinary elite blade demons, and he feels full of power all over his body. Even his skin seems to be burst by this endless force. The most amazing thing is, The sharp blade growing on his arm turned out to be golden!This is not only a powerhouse of the Sanctuary rank, but his level is at least 130, and he is even close to the legendary threshold.He saw the corpses of his companions all over the floor, and also saw the empty warehouse. He didn't know whether it was because of the death of his companions, or the loss of Mithril, or even pure resentment for the humans who attacked here. , sent a chilling wail into the air.

The penetrating power of this wail was astonishing, and the earl and his party, who were already some distance away from here, even heard the wailing. Hearing the power of unwillingness and anger in the voice, the count's face changed, and he hurriedly urged people Hurry up and rush to Solo City, and finally arrived at Solo City before dark.

After returning to the city, the first thing the earl did was to send Yellen to inform the king that he had obtained Mithril. He believed that the king would definitely send a powerful force to Solo City to fetch it. Solo City was on the prominent part of the battlefield. It's like inserting a sharp knife into the opponent's large position, so he was able to charge forward and found the mithril vein that the opponent thought was behind. Under this kind of battlefield where the enemy and us are intertwined, even the rear of Solo There is also the possibility of an army of demons appearing, so the earl did not dare to send personnel to transport it himself. Only the strong men sent by the king can make people feel at ease and get rid of unnecessary responsibilities.At the same time, it also gave Yellen a chance to meet the king. It is not impossible for the king to look at Yellen differently and add a gift to such good news.

Another thing is to immediately strengthen the defense force in the city.Before the arrival of the king's transport troops, it is always necessary to prevent the demons from attacking the city in order to regain Mithril. Fortunately, Solo City is different from Wharton City. There are still certain advantages in defending the city.Poisonous water, moats, traps, traps, tripping ropes are all available, and the stone-smashing tools and rolling logs and tung oil in the city are also available.Now it is necessary to make more adequate preparations for defending the city to prevent the devil from jumping over the wall and attacking the city.

The earl's idea was not wrong at all. As soon as Yellen left the city, the army led by the Blade Demon in front had already arrived at Solo City. Mithril is an extremely precious strategic item for both demons and humans. Throw it away. Definitely going to come back for more.What's more, so many blade demon troops were lost in the battle just now. The dead demons of the same race may not care, but they care about their dignity.

The leader of the sharp blade demon with a golden sickle - Malediz, ordered the troops to attack without hesitation. He would never give the opponent too many opportunities to prepare.

With a wave of his hand, all the bloodthirsty demons jumped into the moat.The moat was now a poisonous river, but the bloodthirsty demon was not affected at all.This low-level demon, which is only level 20, is immune to any poison attack.On the contrary, their blood is the most poisonous poison to humans.Someone quickly shot arrows from the city, and the low-level bloodthirsty demons fell to the ground after receiving such a severe blow.Their blood stained the entire moat.

Solo City is surrounded by walls, but as a fortress city, a city gate was built for military purposes. The nine demon mages in the demon team had already started chanting, and a huge magic circle rose from the ground.A huge meteorite formed in the sky, and then hit the city gate at a violent speed.The meteorite exploded completely when it hit the city gate, creating a powerful shock wave.

This is the enlarged version of the meteor fire shower. As a small fortress, there is no magic-proof amulet on the gate of Solo City. After the blow, most of the old wooden gate collapsed immediately.Immediately the sharp-edged demon went up and chopped down the remaining door.And those nine devil mages frowned. With the loss of three people, it is impossible to form a real twelve-pointed star magic circle. The power of this meteor fire rain is also much smaller. Even the section of city wall next to the gate will probably be blown to ashes.

Seeing that more and more sharp blade demons gathered at the gate of the city, a powerful thunderbolt came down directly from the city wall. This time, Annie cast her spell from above the city gate, and the power of the thunderstorm was even stronger.The dozen or so sharp-blade demons who gathered at the door immediately went to meet the god of death.Even the earl was a little startled by this blow, he didn't expect Annie's strength to be so strong.

Malediz was furious when he saw this situation, he rushed up to the city gate and hit the city gate with a blow, the old city gate stood still and fell down under the slash of his blade. Countless arrows rained at him from the tower, and Annie also sent a big fireball at him, but Malediz didn't even look at the rain of arrows, and directly slashed at Anne's fireball.

When the whole fireball was hit, it exploded in response, and the huge shock wave swept away the strong man of the holy rank. The sharp blade demon of the holy rank did not expect that he would be deflated by a 6th rank magician. The damage was minimal, but the self-esteem was greatly damaged.With a yell, Malediz jumped up suddenly, even jumped onto the city wall several meters high, and swung his knife to chop it down. Several archers in front of the tower were killed immediately when they came into contact with the knife energy.Malediz rushed towards Anne immediately after standing firmly on the city wall.
