Chapter 83 The tragic mercenary camp

After some chanting, the fourth-level priest finally blessed the shadow leopards and black-faced monkeys that were about to leave the city with a hymn of courage, which boosted the morale of these monsters.

As he is already a fourth-level priest, the effect of the Hymn of Courage is doubled compared to that of a low-level priest. Now, even if the two Warcraft kings want these beasts to stop, they will continue to move forward with the blessing of courage. However, the price is that his divine power will be exhausted, after all, he is blessing the Hymn of Courage for so many beasts.

"Alright, God Ou Yun blesses you, move forward towards the direction of the magic cannon position!"

At a command from the fourth-level priest, the magical beasts endowed with the hymn of courage roared to the sky, and then quickly ran towards the outside of the city.

Silently, the shadow leopard disappeared among the group of monsters. Although it was daytime, the black fog lurking in the dark night was not very obvious among the running monsters.

"This group of monsters is coming again. This time they are all black-faced monkeys, and there are also some stealthy shadow leopards. Tell your mercenaries to be careful of the stealthy shadow leopards."

The leader of the Feixue Mercenary Group shouted loudly.

However, there were too many monsters rushing out this time. Even though the mercenaries had the advantage in numbers, the formation that had just been restored was dispersed when facing the group of monsters blessed with the Hymn of Courage.

"Bah!"

A shadow leopard emerged from the black fog, and its sharp claws silently scratched the back of the mercenary's neck, directly cutting off his head. Blood spurted out from the wound, but the shadow leopard that killed him disappeared into the black fog again.

Although the leader of Feixue Mercenary Group had given a reminder, each mercenary group still acted independently. In the chaotic field, it was difficult for the mercenaries to find any trace of the Shadow Leopard.

In addition, there are some level three Shadow Leopards among this batch, and they are also blessed with the Anthem of Courage, which has enhanced their combat effectiveness. They can kill any warrior below level four with one assassination strike.

As soon as they came into contact with the monsters, hundreds of mercenaries were killed by them.

Soon, the mercenaries' formation was broken up.

"Damn it, let the fourth-level fighters support the mercenaries. I'll go protect the Tiger God Wizard and tell him to stop wasting his magic power. These monsters are all blessed with the Courage Hymn, and the fourth-level priest must have consumed a lot of his magic power."

The level 4 warriors who received the order immediately flew up and flew towards their own mercenary group impatiently. These were all mercenaries under their command, and they were heartbroken to see them being slaughtered by monsters.

The leader of the Feixue Mercenary Group immediately approached Richard. Richard's defense was no match for a fourth-level warrior. In addition, his pseudo-magic turret would also be targeted by monsters. Naturally, he did not refuse the protection of the leader of the Feixue Mercenary Group. The two flew over the mercenaries' heads.

Richard did not expect that these mercenaries would perform so poorly on the front battlefield. Previously, the hunting team in Tite Town had also been attacked by a group of black-faced monkeys.

However, facing the group of black-faced monkeys, the hunting team, whose numerical advantage was far less than that of the current mercenaries, performed remarkably under Craigie's command, effectively killing the black-faced monkeys and finally waiting for Fast's support.

The current mercenary group's position is not inferior to the hunting team in terms of fighting spirit level, but their equipment is much worse. Facing the charging monsters, they can only brandish the various weapons in their hands. In addition, without regular training, they are in a mess when facing the monsters' counterattacks.

Richard's thoughts raced like lightning, but his hands never stopped. The monsters were now mixed with the mercenaries, so Richard did not use large-scale magic.

Still relying on the first-level fireball spell, he named the monsters below one by one.

However, Richard, who has an extremely high affinity for fire elements and an extremely fast casting speed, is no less effective in the air than a magic cannon.

In just ten minutes, Richard fired more than thirty fireballs. If Richard was not seeking to kill the monsters but to weaken their combat power, these thirty fireballs would not be a problem to kill thirty low-level monsters.

Richard's performance also attracted the attention of the monsters. More than ten falling rocks condensed from the black-faced monkey's head and smashed towards Richard. The leader of the Feixue Mercenary Group shouted and swung the long sword in his hand to chop at the falling rocks.

"Shh!"

A beam of white light flew by, and a water shield appeared on the body of the leader of the Feixue Mercenary Group. Richard took a moment to cast a defensive magic on him.

The leader of the Feixue Mercenary Group nodded to Richard, then used the long knife in his hand to cut the fallen rocks into two halves. The water shield on his body was also hit by the broken rocks, and it flashed twice and disappeared.

The leader of the Feixue Mercenary Group did not expect that this Tiger God Wizard who suddenly appeared would have such a fast casting speed. He was really lucky.

Seeing several balls of black mist approaching him, he shook the sword in his hand, and white fighting spirit emerged from his whole body, forming a set of white armor that wrapped him up.

"Level 4 fighting skill, fighting armor."

As long as he uses this fighting skill, even a level three monster will not be able to break his defense.

Then the leader of the Feixue Mercenary Group swung the long sword in his hand and rushed towards the approaching black fog.

……

"I didn't expect that there would be such a fourth-level wizard among the mercenaries!"

Miles had been paying close attention to the situation at the mercenary camp. He had witnessed Richard casting spells twice, which made him a little envious. He wished he could have such a fourth-level wizard under his command.

"It is said that this Tiger God Wizard is a lone mercenary, and he came to the mercenary camp alone this time."

An officer under Miles reported Richard's situation.

Miles nodded and said, "When this siege is over, go contact this Tiger God Wizard and see what conditions he wants in order to join my army."

Wade was also by his side, but he was the deputy commander of the Red Flag Army, and all personnel transfers had to go through the military. Plus, there was also a deputy commander in the Red Flag Army who was a fourth-level wizard and was also the head of the Red Flag Army Wizard Corps. If the Tiger God Wizard joined the Red Flag Army, he would definitely have to serve under that deputy commander, so Wade was not interested in recruiting the Tiger God.

"It looks like these mercenaries can't hold on. Do you want to send someone to support them?"

Vader asked.

Miles shook his head. "It's still the beginning. There's no need for our lord army to leave now. If those monsters really charge over, we can just retreat with our magic cannons."

"I didn't expect that the number of monsters in the Stone City far exceeded my estimation. The mercenaries must get a bigger share. If they want gold coins, let them exchange their lives for it!"

Wade teased, "I think you are worried about the magic shells! It took so long just now."
