A Realistic Mount & Blade Game
#49 - Functions of the Mark Fragments
“Everyone!”
“Free fire!”
Then the 10 mercenary crossbowmen acting as captains loudly repeated Shen Mu's order.
“Understood!”
This was the response from the 20 mercenary sentries.
And when everyone's voices finally faded away, it was as if they were of one mind.
They all pulled the triggers of their weapons!
‘Swish, swish, swish, swish!’
Instantly, arrows rained down, carried by the breeze from the Surno Plains.
They landed squarely on the heads and faces of the pig-men!
Splattering blood everywhere!
This caused even more miserable wails to erupt from the front ranks of the pig-men, who were already being stabbed to death by the long spear formation.
The entire central corridor was filled with the anguished cries of these pig-men.
The stench of blood grew even stronger.
Moreover, while the pig-men were in front of the spear formation like they were reefs in the ocean, unable to advance or retreat.
The Lake Rat Gang members, who had retreated behind the Swadian infantry and were still eager to try, began to reorganize.
Behind them.
The Lake Rat Gang's veteran thugs had 10 throwing javelins, and the Lake Rat Gang's new recruits had 8. Most of them were still available.
In the previous battle, they had only thrown two or three rounds.
Now, seeing the Swadian infantry holding back the pig-monster's attack, and the mercenary crossbowmen and sentries shooting from above.
These Lake Rat Gang members, already skilled in throwing, couldn't hold back any longer.
Then, aiming at the space above the Swadian infantry's long spear formation and below the 3-meter-high ceiling, they estimated the throwing position and began throwing again under the demonstration of the Lake Rat Gang's veteran thugs!
‘Swish, swish, swish!’
Seven or eight fish darts transformed into black shadows, drawing graceful arcs in the 1-meter space below the ceiling and above the Swadian infantry's heads.
Then, heavily, they fell onto the heads of the pig-men who were already crowded and struggling to move.
And it was the heads of the pig-men in the very front row.
Immediately, those who hadn't reacted were hit again by the fish forks and darts. Whether it was their faces, chests in leather armor, or abdomens, they were pierced by the sharp spear points. The enormous killing power of the throwing weapons, even stronger than bows and crossbows, caused a fatal blow!
Even if it wasn't a fatal blow, they were severely injured on the spot, wailing with increasingly weakening breaths, and finally kneeling on the ground!
‘Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish!’
Plus, another round of crossbow bolts created a rain of arrows, crashing down on the pig-men's heads.
In less than a few minutes.
Most of the pig-men who had originally charged the fastest and most cheerfully in the front had actually fallen!
“It's only been 5 minutes.”
Shen Mu murmured softly.
Behind him, the cool breeze that had been blowing had disappeared.
This meant that the 5-minute period during which the breeze could increase morale every 30 minutes had passed.
However, Shen Mu's expression remained unchanged as he stood on the balcony.
He still watched the pig-men, who were crowding over from the stairs again, this time more cautious, with a more determined attitude, and a more violent appearance, as well as the other wilderness races howling behind them.
Shen Mu turned his head and glanced at the crossbow cannon that was still placed there, not directly used, intending to catch the opponent off guard.
Because he was high above.
He saw the guy who was clearly human, howling in anger in the corridor because he noticed the frontline battle was failing.
A villain from the Diesel Company!
And he seemed to take something out of his pocket, something that seemed like a fragment, flickering with strange light that could be noticed from dozens of meters away, stuffed it into his mouth, and then turned his head to look at himself fiercely, with eyes like he was his father's killer.
And the huge roar from his throat, as if suppressing extreme pain:
“I will!”
“Kill you!”
Then, this villain from the Diesel Company actually swelled up all over his body, and grew black hairs all over, and even his face underwent drastic changes!
In just ten seconds, he grew a pig nose and drooping pig ears on the side of his head.
And those scarlet pig eyes full of bloodshot.
“This is…” Shen Mu's pupils shrank slightly when he saw this scene on the balcony.
That human from Blue Star ate something, and instantly turned into…
A pig-man!?
“Oink——!!!”
Then this Blue Star human who turned into a pig-man really made a howl like a wild boar.
His whole body swelled directly to more than 2 meters high, and his whole body was fat to the extreme.
Compared to the ordinary pig-men.
Now, this Blue Star human who transformed into a pig-man looked more like a real pig-man!
“Ooo! Ooo! Ooo!”
The surrounding pig-men, seeing this, all began to howl frantically.
Especially looking at the pig-man who was already taller and stronger than themselves, a look of awe flashed in their eyes, as if subordinates were seeing their boss, slaves were seeing their master, and lower-ranking people were seeing higher-ranking people!
Now, Wu Hu ate the crystal nucleus fragment of the Spirit Realm imprint, allowing the rules of the Spirit Realm to descend on him.
Thoroughly resonating his soul, which was bound to the pig-men, in deep co-frequency.
“Then I will gain the power of a pig-man elite chieftain!”
A special red light appeared in Wu Hu's eyes.
However, on his face, already transformed into a pig's head, as he dripped foul-smelling saliva, a look of increasing ferocity due to gaining power, was now filled with more smugness and a sinister grin.
Especially when Wu Hu slowly lowered his head, looking at his own stout form, with hands that were half pig's claw and half human.
The abundant power coming from his entire body, and the special, transcendent talent of an elite pig-headed man chieftain from the beast-human race, strengthened by the spirit realm imprint, made Wu Hu unable to resist letting out a cheer that sounded like a pig's squeal: "Oink oink! This is the power I'm talking about!"
"Captain Wu Hu?" Behind him, the two captains and vice-captains of the outsourced teams had slight changes in their expressions.
Clearly, they hadn't expected Captain Wu Hu to use the means of devouring spirit realm imprint fragments right from the start.
Generally speaking, this was one of the trump cards used only on major battlefields.
Ordinary battles would never warrant its use.
Moreover, each time it was used.
Although it would enhance the ability to synchronize with transcendent creatures and increase one's combat power, which was a good thing.
Because of the preciousness of spirit realm imprint fragments, a very serious report had to be written to the Diesel Company to explain why this power was used!
Even though these two outsourced team captains each possessed an imprint fragment.
They wouldn't dare use it casually!
"I need you to use them now!"
But Wu Hu's eyes were bloodshot at this moment, allowing the saliva beside his pig snout to drip onto the leather armor on his abdomen along with his words, appearing dirty and foul-smelling.
At the same time, Wu Hu also roared in a low voice to the formal employees around him:
"Including you! We need to take down this human lord in the shortest amount of time! Kill him! Seize his lord's crystal core! Otherwise, we'll have to retreat by nightfall! And then! If the chairman blames us! No one can escape!"
Hearing Wu Hu's words.
These formal employees, as well as the two outsourced team captains, unhesitatingly took out their own spirit realm fragments and swallowed them without hesitation.
Then, accompanied by painful groans, one by one they transformed into the races of their main followers, races that inherently possessed the characteristic of spirit realm creature synchronization due to soul binding, gradually becoming inhuman!
"This is why I want to become a captain, why I want to become a formal employee!"
At this moment, Zhang Caidong's eyes were full of jealousy.
And within those two outsourced teams, nearly twenty of the contract workers, as senior outsourced employees, had gained some trust from the Diesel Company, so they also took out the distributed spirit realm fragments from their pockets and swallowed them.
They also began soul synchronization, transforming into jackal-men, earth goblins, hobgoblins, green-skinned orcs, and other barbaric spirit realm creatures.
Causing their respective spirit realm creature followers to let out excited howls!
"Oink oink!"
Seeing this scene, a satisfied, brutal look appeared on Wu Hu's entire pig face.
He raised the flail hammer in his hand, pointing it at everyone in these two outsourced teams, as well as their spirit realm creature followers, and grinned sinisterly with oinks:
"The battle is currently unfavorable, you begin the assault! As long as you can break through that human's defenses! I will personally request merit for you from the general manager!"
"Understood."
The captains or members of these outsourced teams, transformed into various spirit realm creatures, responded one after another.
Even if there was dissatisfaction in their eyes, they didn't dare to reveal it.
Temporary workers were responsible for assaults.
They were responsible for attrition.
They were responsible for being cannon fodder!
They all understood that this was an unchangeable fact, and it was also a tactic frequently used by the Diesel Company.
"Kill!"
And so, under the forward charge of these outsourced team captains and members.
Behind them, their spirit realm creature followers also howled, raising their weapons high, and began to charge forward.
"Clear a path!"
In Wu Hu's angry roar.
The originally chaotic and crowded pig-headed men, as if they were extremely frightened, cleared a path in a short amount of time.
Allowing these outsourced teams' spirit realm creatures to rush to the front row.
And begin to charge towards that troublesome human lord's spear phalanx!
But on the balcony, Shen Mu's expression changed slightly.
Because just as those Diesel Company guys all swallowed that strange thing that flickered with faint light, a dialogue box appeared before his eyes.
[Ding! Temporary mission detected! Special event!]
[Mission issued: Eliminate all enemy leaders.]
[Mission description: Those enemy leaders have used special methods, faintly carrying some special rules power. Now you need to eliminate all of these enemy leaders to provide the system with the power of special rules for analysis!]
[Mission requirements: Kill 17 enemy leaders (0/17).]
[Mission rewards: ① Skill upgrade × 1; ② Mount \u0026 Blade series reputation + 1 point. ③ Magic sphere map modification permission (village template) × 1;]
PS: Starting village mode after this fight! Please give me some recommendation tickets and monthly tickets~
