Chapter 100: Not a Single Armor Piece Left!
"Haha, brave warriors of Stormhold, these kobolds are nothing special! Follow me and kill them; we shall have our revenge!" Lawrence was both shocked and delighted.
The battle three years ago remained vivid in his memory, including the town guards and even his own father.
Against these kobolds, they had no ability to resist at all.
But now, they were worlds apart from before.
Wasn't this exactly the perfect opportunity to avenge their fathers?
"That's right! It turns out these kobolds are nothing special either. Everyone, kill!"
The guards responded one after another; fear stems from a lack of confidence, and with confidence restored, they were no longer afraid.
In an instant, the kobolds' siege was directly thwarted.
Furthermore, hanging outside the wooden wall reduced their combat effectiveness by half, making it impossible to breach the ramparts.
More critically, the demonic swifts in the sky continued their assault.
They were merely more muscular, able to jam some arrowheads with their flesh, but they were not immortal like dark creatures.
Thus, as time passed, several kobolds could no longer endure and were shot to death by arrows.
Roar!
Pago let out an angry roar and immediately climbed the city wall; he intended to use his superior strength compared to his kin to open a breach for his people.
But as soon as he reached the top of the wooden wall, he saw a human knight hanging there, looking at him with a cold sneer.
"Die, two-legged sheep!" Pago paid it no mind; his strength was enough to fight even a human Bronze Knight.
Ding!
Claws clashed with a longsword, producing a metallic ring, and Pago's expression changed drastically.
"A Silver Realm two-legged sheep?!"
"It seems you know quite a bit about us humans?" Lei Meng bared his fangs, and his longsword roared down again.
With a pfft sound, a large gash was cleaved across Pago's chest.
Fortunately, Pago dodged in time, avoiding being killed in a single strike.
Pago plummeted to the ground at maximum speed.
Then, just as he turned back to carefully inspect that human knight on the wooden wall behind him,
he suddenly heard the sound of landing coming from behind his head.
"Want to run? You can't escape!"
That two-legged sheep had actually chased him down!
Panic surged in Pago's heart; without hesitation, he sprinted toward the distance.
"Priest Niloda, save me!"
While running, Pago continued to cry for help.
"Leader Pago?!"
Priest Niloda also sensed the situation and rushed toward Pago, while simultaneously beginning to wave his staff.
"Cursed Claw!"
When Lei Meng pursued to within forty-plus meters of the priest Niloda, the chanting finally ended.
The skeletal staff swung forward violently, and a green orb shaped like a claw shot toward Lei Meng.
Lei Meng frowned slightly, sensing a significant threat, and immediately raised his shield to block.
Bang! The shield transmitted a massive shock.
Looking forward at the shield, Lei Meng saw five claw marks deeply embedded in it, and the surrounding area appeared as if splashed with strong sulfuric acid, corroded into pits and bumps.
This was an all-iron shield specially equipped for Lei Meng by Gervas; although heavy, its defensive power was absolutely formidable.
From this, it was clear that this kobold priest was indeed not weak.
Seeing the priest's interception effective, Pago immediately breathed a huge sigh of relief and exclaimed excitedly: "Priest Niloda, don't stop! He is a Silver two-legged sheep; kill him!"
Priest Niloda showed a solemn expression and immediately began to continuously cast spells.
Whoosh!
But just then, a sharp whistling sound suddenly came from overhead.
Priest Niloda's expression changed, and he immediately looked up at the sky.
He saw a pegasus plummeting toward him at an almost ninety-degree vertical angle.
And on this pegasus, there was actually a young two-legged sheep wearing leather armor.
"Are these two-legged sheep crazy?"
That was Niloda's first reaction.
But the next instant, he knew the opponent was not crazy, but rather extremely despicable.
When the distance to the ground was only thirty-plus meters, the opponent suddenly revealed a sinister smile and untied a large leather sack in his hand.
Immediately, fist-sized stones began to fall out of that sack.
And after the stones were released, the pegasus's wings instantly changed direction, gliding away to the side.
Only those stones continued to fall straight down, smashing toward his head.
"Damn it!" Niloda wanted to run, but it was too late; he could only point his staff at the sky.
Whoosh! The green claw swept toward the sky.
Bang bang bang!
Several falling stones were all shattered by the claw, turning into dust.
But the number of stones was truly too great; at least seven or eight remained that were not intercepted.
Bang bang bang!
The stone fell in the blink of an eye, its tremendous inertia smashing out small holes seven or eight centimeters deep in the ground.
Thud!
Crack!
And the Nilo-da Priest's luck did not seem very good; a stone happened to strike his right shoulder.
A piercing pain surged through him, accompanied by the clear sound of bone cracking.
And his broad shoulder visibly caved in.
Spewing a mouthful of fresh blood, the Nilo-da Priest stared with wide eyes as he fell to the ground, performing the last pili dance of his life upon the earth.
The stone had happened to injure his heart; he was actually going to die just like this...
Gazing at the blinding sunlight overhead, it reminded him of the wizards practicing under the scorching sun, that was his lost youth.
"Rest in peace!"
A figure burst into his field of vision, blocking out the scorching sun; it was that treacherous two-legged sheep who had ambushed from the air.
"You..."
Nilo-da wanted to say something, but ultimately his body went limp, and he died instantly.
"Nilo-da Priest!" From more than ten meters away, Pago's eyes nearly burst from their sockets.
It was not because the priest's death pained him, but rather because without the Nilo-da Priest, he too was doomed to die.
Indeed, a cold sneer came from behind, "Do not rush; you will meet him very soon!"
Pfft!
A powerful, heavy sword strike landed on Pago's back, causing Pago to lose his balance and roll several times on the ground.
Before he could rise again, Lei Meng, relying on the agile posture of a Silver Knight, had already stepped onto his back.
For the sake of safety, with several more pfft pfft sounds, the tendons in Pago's hands and feet were completely severed.
With the priest killed and the leader captured, the blow to the morale of the kobolds was fatal.
"The priest has been killed, let's run quickly!"
"The leader has also been captured by the two-legged sheep; these two-legged sheep are not something we can deal with, let's run quickly!"
The kobolds began to flee in panic.
Gervas would not easily let these creatures who eat humans go.
He handed Pago over to several guards, while he and Lei Meng personally led the pursuit.
More than an hour later, Gervas returned with the squad.
The carriage behind him was filled with kobold corpses.
Although more than twenty managed to escape, this could absolutely be counted as a great victory.
"I told you, my lord led us to kill monsters; having killed the scorpion bandits, he will surely lead us to kill these damn kobolds! We have won!"
"My lord is mighty!"
"My lord is mighty!"
As Lauren spoke, cheers immediately erupted inside and outside the small town.
The women, children, and elderly who had previously hidden upon hearing the alarm bell had also arrived at the town entrance, witnessing with their own eyes how the kobolds who dared to attack Wheatfield Town were slaughtered by their own lord until not a single one remained.
