Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

After the cowardly demon's charging momentum was blocked by the shield wall, three rows of long spears from the human soldiers thrust out one after another, and the little demon in front was continuously assassinated. The little devil behind had no choice but to push forward because the attack range of the minions was not enough. This resulted in almost no room to dodge and made it easier to be stabbed by a spear.

This does not include the casualties caused by the twenty longbowmen. They have been shooting arrows since the demons began to charge. Even if they only have a one-third hit rate, they have still killed twenty or thirty coward demons.

clang!

Knight Barnav's long sword held up the long sword of Babu Demon easily because he was of higher level than the opponent.

brush!

Knight Jul's long sword stabbed Babu Demon in the heart, frightening the demon to retreat and dodge.

The two knights kept slashing and stabbing with their two long swords, forcing the Babu Demon to fend off left and right in a hurry. Occasionally, the weapons of both sides collided, and the one who suffered was definitely the lower-level demon. If the Babu Demon hadn't been agile and had rich fighting experience in the abyss, he would have been killed on the spot.

But no matter what, it was still two against one, and humans had the upper hand in terms of level and weapons. After more than ten rounds, Knight Barnav relied on the sharpness of his sword to cut off the long sword of Babu Demon, while Knight Jul seized the opportunity to chop it. Lost the devil's head.

When the two turned around to deal with the little devil, they found that the soldiers had defeated the little devil.

There were only more than 150 coward demons in total. On the way to the charge, longbowmen shot and killed twenty or thirty of them. In the first charge, more than thirty were stabbed to death by spears. The militiamen on the wall used hunting rifles to kill them. Bows and javelins also killed more than a dozen, and half of them were lost almost immediately after the encounter with the little devils.

After the second round of lance stabs, the knight attendants and combat soldiers surrounded him from the side, killing dozens more cowardly demons under attack from both sides. Some of the remaining little demons went crazy and continued to attack, and some ran away when the situation was bad. This made the few demons even more dispersed and made the threat even smaller.

"Kill me!"

Two knights joined the battlefield and led the soldiers to chase the little devil. The longbowmen also fired accurately. The screams of the devil were everywhere for a while.

The soldiers led by Stewart placed great emphasis on discipline. Even during the pursuit, they were in groups of five. One or two escaped little devils who wanted to fight back were instantly pierced by several spears or hacked to death by several axes. .

Although the minions of the Coward Demon were sharp enough to scratch through leather armor, they were powerless against the Stuart soldiers wearing double-layered iron armor. Some unlucky ones were caught at the joints of their arms or legs, and some were unlucky enough to have their inner armor scratched. They were immediately ordered by the knight attendants leading the team to retreat and receive treatment.

The priest stood on the wall and cast a zero-level magic "Cure Minor Injuries" to heal him immediately. In fact, this kind of injury does not require a priest at all. Before the war, a large amount of wound medicine made by the herbalist was stored, so just take a pair and apply it. But the priest must be allowed to play some role in the battle.

The battle ended quickly. Every single one of the demons in the group was killed, and it was left to the militia to clean up the battlefield.

The militia captain led people to pile the demon's corpse in a wasteland, and the priest came closer and held the holy symbol to start the purification ceremony.

Following his prayer, a ray of holy light fell from the sky and shone on the demon's corpse, and the abyssal breath inside immediately dissipated like melting snow.

Demons are born from fallen abyss souls. The purified soul power is absorbed by the main world when it dissipates. This is a good thing for the gods.

At the same time, the priest felt a holy power coming from his body, and he advanced from the original second-level priest to a third-level priest. This was God's reward for purifying evil.

After a while, the priest opened his eyes and ordered: "It's time to light the fire."

The militia captain ordered: "Put down the wood!"

The militiamen piled chopped wood on top of the devil's corpse. The captain threw the torch on it, and soon a raging fire broke out.

Because the lord gave the knights fiefdoms and paid the soldiers, they should fight for the lord, so the demon-slaying points for killing demons belong to the lord, and the lord does not need to pay any additional rewards for this besides the pension for those who died in battle.

But Christine knew that without rewards and punishments, soldiers would not be motivated to fight, so she stipulated that for every timid monster killed, they could get ten silver coins, which was not a small amount for ordinary citizens. The knights who kill the big demon will be rewarded. It won't be much, but it will make them feel valued by the lord.

The reward coins will not be distributed on the spot, but will be recorded and delivered to the soldiers' homes once a month by the army secretary. These secretaries are all served by the second or third sons of minor nobles or literate free citizens. Although the military regulations are very strict, the pay is high, and they are responsible for food and accommodation. More importantly, they often deal with knight lords and rob them when recruiting people. Sign up.

The village chief distributed the militia rewards on the spot, and arranged for the villagers to slaughter livestock to make lunch, including thick vegetable soup, potato stew, and black bread. Soldiers who were not on guard could get a glass of beer, and soldiers who were on guard could get more Get a big ladle of stew.

Distinguished people such as knights, priests, village chiefs and militia captains can enjoy additional pork chops, white bread, wine and apple pie.

After experiencing this battle, the soldiers felt that the terrifying demon was nothing more than that, and their side easily won the victory.

Those soldiers who killed the demons showed off their achievements, while those who were injured were laughed at in good faith.

In fact, this situation was rare among Stuart leaders. The sudden appearance of demons caused considerable losses to most nobles.

Thanks to Christine sending special envoys to these nobles on the ground, Viscount Brieux had two more days to prepare.

After receiving the news of the outbreak of the demonic disaster, he immediately started preparations. Repair the walls of towns and villages, recruit militiamen to distribute weapons and train, hoard supplies, etc.

Beacon towers were not exclusive to Christine; Viscount Brieux also ordered them to be set up in every village.

Proaret is a village in the Viscount of Brieux. The militiamen on duty lit the beacon fire immediately after discovering the demon, and the Viscount of Brieux also sent reinforcements immediately.

However, due to a shortage of soldiers, the rescue army could only be dispatched from the town of Brieux, and it was already two days later when it arrived.

The demon captured the village of Proyaret. Although the village chief organized the evacuation in advance, how could the villagers carrying large and small packages outrun the demon? Many of them were still caught.

All the prisoners were sacrificed in blood, and the originally fifth-level demon was promoted to sixth level.

Viscount Brieux's army could only choose to fight the demon in the field. With an eighth-level and a sixth-level knight, it was not difficult to kill the big demon. However, due to insufficient training and mediocre equipment, the militiamen recruited could not survive even three hundred soldiers. He still suffered heavy losses after defeating more than 150 little devils. If the knight had not joined the battlefield in time, he would have been killed.

After the victory, more than 70 soldiers were killed and wounded, and more than 300 civilians were killed by the demons.
