A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

Flames surged, the exploding gasoline drums were like the Fire Elemental Elder of the Fire Elemental Plane descending, the terrifying temperature and blast wave generated in an instant directly swept across the entire area outside the city wall!

Even the Pigmen who hadn't completely left on the slope, as well as many Gnolls and Hobgoblins.

At this moment, they were directly enveloped by the rising flames, without even a groan, their entire bodies were instantly engulfed in flames, from hair to limbs, turning into raging fuel, all condensed in the rising flames, becoming a part of it!

"Gasoline drums!!!" The Blue Star humans on the city wall suddenly reacted at this moment, their bloodshot eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

Looking at the wooden furniture in the slope, it turned into a sea of flames in this short moment.

Their hearts even seemed to stop beating.

Even their thoughts fell into a blank!

Including those Pigmen who still had the Stone Skin spell active on their bodies, still at a loss, not understanding what had happened, at this moment, as they subconsciously turned their heads, they saw that their retreat had directly turned into clusters of flames.

Immediately after reacting, they also felt a sense of despair and panic rising in their hearts!

"Issue the order! Let Fatis proceed according to the plan!" At this moment, Shen Mu, standing on the city wall of the castle area, remained unchanged, watching the mushroom cloud roaring and rising in the direction of the city gate with extreme calmness, his eyes only filled with indifference.

He waved to the side and said loudly to the Swadian Light Infantry beside him: "Let the others prepare for battle, hold off the Pigmen's desperate counterattack!"

"Understood!"

"Understood!"

Immediately, four or five Swadian Light Infantry responded loudly after hearing Shen Mu's order, and then turned to convey the order.

At the same time, beside Shen Mu, the Vaegir Archers and Skirmishers, as well as the Rhodok Sharpshooters and Mercenary Crossbowmen, a total of 400 people, were all scattered in the corners of the city wall and on the large towers behind them, watching the rising mushroom cloud and the soaring flames.

The firelight shone on their faces, instantly igniting the excitement of victory in their hearts!

"Release the arrows! Shoot!" Manid, who now took the initiative to take command of these ranged shooters in the castle walls, square towers and large towers, shouted in surprise, tearing his throat.

"Release the arrows!" Then came the equally surprised shouts of the various archer and crossbowmen captains, who had also reacted.

The enemy's retreat had been cut off.

Even the enemy's reinforcements outside, along with the flames that began to spread, turning the entire slope into a grill, and the slope that was constantly collapsing and collapsing due to the burning flames, announced the end.

It also destined these enemies who came to the city wall to be consumed to death on the city wall!

'Swish swish swish swish!'

Instantly, arrows rained down, and the fluttering arrows and crossbow bolts fell on the heads of the Pigmen and the spirit creatures that followed, with the screams of tearing the air.

Those enemies who hadn't had time to be covered by the Stone Skin spell and could only use their flesh or round shields to resist the arrows were pierced like hedgehogs!

It's just because their retreat was cut off, and they were trapped in this long and narrow city wall...

And these spirit creatures mimicked by spirit humans.

They had already entered the stage of despair.

But precisely because of despair, they seemed to be crazy, even if they didn't have a group Stone Skin spell to protect their bodies, they began to raise their respective weapons and charged towards the Swadian sergeants' spear formation on both sides of the city wall.

Even the Pigmen in the front were stabbed to death on the spot by the dense spear formation.

But there were still Pigmen rushing forward.

Still humming miserably, using their lives, desperately and resolutely, launching the final extremely fierce death charge!

"Charge! For the Beastman tribe! For the Pigman tribe! In the name of the chieftain! Charge!"

On the city wall, Fu Jian, with red eyes, raised his hand and directly gathered the countless blood mists that permeated the area, condensing them into a bright red blood-colored light sphere in his palm, and then crushed it fiercely.

'Buzz!'

It turned into strands of blood-red lines that shot out and submerged into the bodies of the surrounding spirit creatures and Pigmen.

Making these creatures from the spirit realm all have thick bloodshot eyes, their minds completely filled with anger and hatred, looking at the human race in front of them, without greed and covetousness, only the most primitive resentment.

"Group Bloodlust Spell!"

Fu Jian sneered as he released the spell, his own eyes becoming more and more ferocious with hatred.

Bringing the surrounding Pigmen, who were also Blue Star humans and released the Group Stone Skin Spell and Group Bloodlust Spell, intending to fight desperately, using their final madness to launch a desperate charge and assault on these human soldiers in front of them, who had perfect defenses, fought bravely, and had extremely tenacious morale!

Even Fu Jian had already been affected by the Bloodlust Spell and had become extremely bloodthirsty.

Beginning to enter an extremely crazy state!

He no longer had a retreat.

Not just this physical retreat.

Now, if Fu Jian returned to the Diesel Company, he knew very well what his fate would be. He would definitely be ordered by the general manager on the spot to strip off all the equipment on his body and throw him into the kitchen to have his limbs chopped off alive, watching himself be eaten alive by the Pigmen bit by bit!

Because in the past, Fu Jian had seen some employees who had not completed their tasks and had seriously neglected their duties, or some traitors, meet this miserable end!

Fu Jian really had no retreat.

He could only go all the way to the dark.

Dying in battle in this new human territory might still be a very good end!

Plus the Pigmen mimicked by Blue Star humans who had the same thoughts around them, as well as the temporary workers who were coerced by these formal employees, were also affected by the Bloodlust Spell and began to become crazy.

Beginning to howl loudly, charging towards the two sides of the city wall, especially the north side, the direction of the city wall near the castle.

Even if they were enduring the shooting of arrows and crossbow bolts like a torrential rain.

Enduring the bombardment of light crossbow cannons and siege crossbow cannons one after another.

They didn't care anymore.

"Long live the Kingdom of Swadia!"

"For the honor of the Kingdom of Swadia!"

"Everything for Swadia!"

And in the north, the pressure faced by the Swadian sergeants directly soared.

The crazy enemies who rushed over were all stabbed to death in front of the spear formation, but more, thick-skinned Pigmen squeezed forward, so that the Swadian sergeants holding the tails of the spears behind were pushed back constantly.

So that their abdomens were pierced by spears, but the Pigmen were still roaring loudly, striding forward, even tearing out and breaking their intestines, they had to come to the Swadian sergeants and lift the flail hammer in their hands, hitting these human spearmen with extreme hatred.

This kind of appearance that completely disregarded life and death, which could be called madness, made the Swadian sergeants on this north city wall unable to withstand it psychologically and physically!

Even if they were now filled with righteous indignation, also filled with resentment towards the invaders.

But the spears could not be held.

They began to be smashed and broken, so that the Pigmen who rushed forward used their bodies to clamp many spears, turned their heads and threw these spears down the city wall.

So that the Swadian sergeants, who were only 25 in number, were constantly injured, constantly killed in battle, and constantly losing the spears in their hands, and constantly damaging the shields on their left arms.

So that the spear formation they formed was completely breached on the city wall in a short period of time!

This had never happened before.

"No, we must abandon the city wall at this time."

Bunduk looked at the Swadian sergeants who were constantly retreating, and the defensive line on his side was also beginning to be unable to withstand the impact, his face extremely solemn.

Just when Bunduk turned his head and looked at the Swadian Light Infantry and Lake Rat Gang veterans below, who were more numerous, had completed their formation, and were ready to come to the city wall to support.

Bunduk looked up at the direction of the city wall in the castle area.

The reason he didn't abandon the city wall.

It was Shen Mu, the true commander from the Castle District, who issued the order to abandon the town walls!

Therefore, Bandak cannot abandon these walls.

But now, even if Bandak doesn't want to abandon the walls, it's no longer up to him.

The enemies on the walls are increasing in number, charging towards both sides, entering a bloodthirsty and berserk state, disregarding life and death, and unafraid of pain. They have begun to push back their defenses, and they are on the verge of collapse!

'Rumble!' Just then, a sound like muffled thunder appeared.

Bandak turned his head.

He discovered that Fathes, who had been waiting in the barracks area, seemed to have received an order from Shen Mu.

He began to lead the 10 Holy Tree Knights, 50 Holy Tree Cavalry, 10 Swadian Knights, and 80 Swadian Heavy Cavalry, charging out from the opened east gate.

It seemed they were going to carry out another mission.

"Are they going to strangle those enemies remaining outside the city walls?" Bandak immediately understood Shen Mu's plan.

Raising his head, looking at the enemies in front of him who were still impacting the city walls but progressing slowly, as if trapped on this 6-meter high and 3-meter wide wall, his eyes revealed a hint of sharpness.

Bandak immediately shouted loudly at the veteran Lake Rat Gang thugs who had already thrown their harpoons and were waiting for orders, as well as the Swadian light infantry, who were the most numerous and still numbered 370:

"Lake Rat Gang veteran thugs! Swadian light infantry! Everyone! Enter the city walls! Defend!"

"Understood!"

Below, the Swadian light infantry were the first to move, immediately raising the spears in their hands, which were slightly less than 3 meters long, and quickly rushing up the stairs to the city walls.

They stood behind the Swadian sergeants, one after another, alternating positions.

In just a few seconds, they replaced the Swadian sergeants who had lost their spears and were now using hand-and-a-half swords and spiked maces, relying on their plate armor to fight against the pig-headed men.

Then, these Swadian light infantry, medium infantry wearing chain mail, who were also regulars in the Swadian kingdom's infantry, officially entered the battlefield!

From the north and south sections of the east wall, they together withstood the impact of the pig-headed men!

Their task was only to hold the line.

To withstand the frantic attacks of the pig-headed men.

Waiting for the heavy cavalry to finish off the scattered enemy forces outside, and then return to support, dismounting to fight on foot, taking over for them!

Moreover, during this time, it wasn't just Fathes's heavy cavalry that charged out of the east gate.

They began to detour around the south side to the west side.

To find the remnants of the Diesel Company's forces that had been separated by the burning slopes and were fighting on their own.

At the top of the castle district's walls, four ballistae were continuously bombarding the town district's walls.

One spear after another easily pierced through them like candied haws.

Quickly reaping the lives of the Diesel Company's spirit realm creatures, who had returned to flesh and blood after the collective Stone Skin spell had worn off.

Moreover, each bombardment took the lives of seven or eight pig-headed men or other bandit races.

Even though these pig-headed men were still charging at the Swadian light infantry's spear formation.

Relying on their tenacious vitality, the Swadian light infantry's combat power, defense, and ability to hold the line were far inferior to those of the Swadian sergeants, causing the number of casualties among the Swadian light infantry to increase sharply.

But anyone who saw the scene in front of them would not think that the victors were the Diesel Company's guys.

Instead, they looked at the Diesel Company's pig-headed men, those spirit realm creatures transformed from Blue Star humans.

Because their retreat was cut off.

Because the human spearmen in front of them were firmly guarding the city walls, they could only be trapped in the middle, unable to advance or retreat.

And they were still being bombarded by ballistae.

Everyone already understood.

The Diesel Company's expeditionary force had completely declared its defeat, and it was already destined to be annihilated here, becoming the first stepping stone on the path to the rise of this new human lord!

Still on the walls of the castle district, in an absolutely safe position, Shen Mu also knew that after cutting off the Diesel Company's invading forces' retreat, as long as his troops could withstand the ensuing desperate counterattack, they could win this battle.

And it would definitely be a great victory!

"Mass Heal!"

Shen Mu reached out and directly communicated with the system in his mind, releasing the healing-type spell he possessed.

Directly across a hundred meters, it roared and smashed onto the east wall's north and south sections, onto the soldiers who were still struggling to resist the pig-headed men.

Whether it was the Swadian light infantry at the front or the Swadian sergeants and Lake Rat Gang destroyers who were resting and recuperating at the back.

When the green light surged out, their stamina and injuries were rapidly recovering.

And this was not a skill that Shen Mu used alone.

Looking at the pig-headed men still wreaking havoc on the city walls, he directly raised his hand again and released a new skill:

"Bee Swarm Harassment!"

Another nature-based spell.

But this time, the huge killer bees that appeared, falling from the sky, towards the pig-headed men and spirit realm creatures still crowded on the city walls, as well as those Blue Star humans who had completed the transformation, were even more effective!

Because in such a crowded space, even using weapons to drive away these killer bees was useless.

On the contrary, for the killer bees that were flapping their wings and flying back and forth, it was easier and more effective to use their dagger-like stingers to fiercely slaughter the pig-headed men on the city walls who had no way to hide!

"Kill!" However, the Swadian light infantry, now illuminated by the green light, had a strong force surging from their bodies, causing them to start recklessly stabbing forward.

Originally, because the force of the pig-headed men's impact was relatively fierce, the instinctual resistance caused the speed of the spears they stabbed in their hands to be not so fast.

Now, illuminated by this green light, they even had a feeling of being suppressed and beaten in their hearts, and then the anger that erupted!

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

These Swadian light infantry each raised the spears in their hands and began to stride forward, actually taking the initiative to use the spear formation to stab forward at the pig-headed men who had no way to hide, and once stabbed, would be severely injured, stabbed to death in a few hits, and then lose their balance and be forced to fall off the city walls!

At this time, there was no fear in the eyes of these Swadian light infantry, not even a trace of panic, let alone a trace of wavering.

The bloodshot eyes were still filled with the hatred that had erupted from being suppressed, which seemed extremely strange.

Moreover, psychologically, there was a clear increase in the desire to attack!

It wasn't just them.

In fact, even the Swadian sergeants, the Lake Rat Gang destroyers, and the Lake Rat Gang veteran thugs behind them, now illuminated by the green light, while healing their injuries, a surge of fighting spirit also erupted again in their hearts.

Making them even more eager to cross over these Swadian light infantry and fight with those pig-headed men again!

Even if they saw the Swadian light infantry in front of them, because of their reckless actions, rashly moving forward, being seized by the pig-headed men, waving their flails, and smashing their bodies and faces, the miserable appearance of the whole person falling off the city walls.

These cavalry and infantry soldiers behind them still wanted to rush up and fight these pig-headed men with their lives in the most straightforward way!

"Wait!?" Shen Mu noticed something was wrong at this time.

Especially after releasing this Mass Heal skill, the subtle red light spots mixed in with the green and white light spots made him even more surprised.

He thought of a special description in the Mass Heal skill after being strengthened by divine power—

"Will it have a desire to attack?"

Shen Mu murmured softly.

At this time, he looked at the city walls, because of this increased desire to attack, the spear formation was scattered, leading to more casualties.

His face became a little gloomy and ugly.

“This is a bit of a backfire.” Shen Mu gritted his teeth, he really hadn't expected this situation to occur.

The skills strengthened by divine power are indeed powerful.

Not only did the recovery range increase, and the base value of recovered stamina and injuries increase, but even the number of releases reached 5 times per day.

Originally, Shen Mu thought that a greater desire to attack was a good prefix.

However, once the desire to attack is too high, leading to a decrease in organizational strength, turning normal tactical attacks into reckless, disorganized, and undisciplined random attacks,

then this is really a bit wrong!

Look now, it is because of the unauthorized actions of these Swadian light infantry that the number of casualties has immediately increased.

Even from more than 200 meters away, you can see those pig-headed people with bloodshot eyes, more brutal, more bloody, and more crazy, wielding flail hammers one by one, smashing the Swadian light infantry off the city wall.

Causing the entire defensive formation to continue to retreat towards the rear, forced to give up another 20 meters of the city wall.

Allowing more enemies to have more room to maneuver along the vacated city wall area.

Allowing more spirit creatures, such as gnolls, earth goblins, lizardmen, and other slender spirit world bandit races, to climb onto the battlements and launch attacks from the steep places along the outer battlements and baffles.

Causing more casualties to those Swadian light infantry who had completed their formation but then scattered on their own!

The situation is indeed not right.

“Damn it!” Even Shen Mu couldn't help but grit his teeth and curse in a low voice, not knowing whether he was cursing the so-called divine power enhancement or the somewhat wrong scene now.

But there was no time to think too much.

Shen Mu directly raised his left hand, gently stroking the ring on his finger, and communicated with the system with his thoughts:

“Use, Low-Tier Battlefield Supply Ring!”

‘Buzz!’

Almost instantly, feedback from the Mount \u0026 Blade system had been loaded onto this silver ring.

And the inscription on the ring instantly flashed a white light.

“Aim at those Lake Rat Gang Destroyers and Lake Rat Gang Veteran Thugs! Focus on supplying them!”

Shen Mu understood that this was the power from the system, asking him who to actively supply.

After all, the effect of the Low-Tier Battlefield Supply Ring can only replenish low-tier conventional consumable weapons for up to 500 soldiers.

If the number of soldiers needing supplies is too large, then a portion of the soldiers needing supplies will be automatically removed.

Of course, if Shen Mu is sure to focus on supplying someone, then the armory from the Aenfas Empire on the other side of the ring will also quickly supply the designated key supply soldiers.

For example, now.

Shen Mu specified those Lake Rat Gang family members, whose backpacks were already empty!

‘Buzz!’

A system rule-level fluctuation appeared.

In the backpacks of those Lake Rat Gang family members, fish spears and barbed javelins appeared separately in the backpacks behind the Lake Rat Gang Veteran Thugs and Lake Rat Gang Destroyers, replenishing these throwing weapons again!

Then these Lake Rat Gang members immediately understood and took out their best fish spears and barbed javelins from their backpacks.

With full of enthusiasm and top-notch combat will, they threw them at those pig-headed people!

‘Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!’

As these thrown javelins once again roared, tearing the air.

That terrifying force once again burst out in the bodies of these pig-headed people, deeply piercing into the bodies of these pig-headed people with heavy force and inertia.

More pig-headed people fell one by one.

So that the Swadian light infantry who were originally constantly retreating and suffering heavy casualties, stabilized their position because of this javelin rain.

Looking at the front that had completely flashed a faint light, and after starting a bloody battle with those spirit world creatures transformed by Blue Star humans.

They even let out shouts, and rushed up without fear, fighting together!

With such a fighting will, even if the most ferocious demon is in front of them, a terrifying devil who can easily slaughter them, a legendary god, because of their loyalty to Shen Mu, their unconditional allegiance and admiration for Shen Mu, these Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers dare to launch an attack first!

This is the absolute fighting spirit that they have cultivated in the territory, with various state buffs stacked together, and then catalyzed by this more aggressive attack desire!

Their own death is so that Lord Shen Mu can live better in this different world.

It is so that their companions can come to this different world and face fewer enemies.

These Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers are not afraid of death.

They are just afraid of dying without value!

Now, being able to die for Lord Shen Mu is, in their minds, a greater value than dying for the king!

‘Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!’

Along with the javelin rain, there were also spear bolts constantly bombarding from 200 meters away.

As well as the continuous heavy rain formed by the archers' and crossbowmen's dual precision shooting, continuously raining feathers and crossbow bolts.

The number of pig-headed people and spirit world creatures that were originally crowded on the city wall, with a maximum of more than six hundred.

Now there are only a little over a hundred left.

Most of them are Blue Star humans who have completed the transformation, because they were previously responsible for commanding, and finally stayed on the city wall, watching their soldiers in the city getting fewer and fewer.

Now it has reached the stage where these Blue Star humans have to personally take the field, running out of ammunition and food, and are about to be defeated!

At this time, no matter who it is, they have already discovered that this battle, which was originally full of confidence and able to achieve the final victory, is about to end because of their death.

“Huff! Huff! Huff!” Fu Jian was no different from a pig-headed person at this time.

Or rather, he is a pig-headed person now!

Moreover, because the soul frequency of the fused pig-headed person is too high, at this moment, the emotions that have just retreated from the Bloodthirsty Technique are also not very normal in madness and hysteria.

And Fu Jian grabbed Zhang Caidong, who had turned into a gnoll, and roared loudly:

“Zhang Caidong! You said it! This human new lord! Isn't he from the apartment!? Isn't he stupidly building the castle in the apartment!? Why is it like this now! Why! Why! Why!!!!!”

Because of anger, the saliva in Fu Jian's mouth directly sprayed all over Zhang Caidong's face, who had turned into a gnoll.

But now, Zhang Caidong's face is blank.

He didn't expect it to be like this.

He still wanted to climb higher in the diesel company, relying on this company and his brain.

Gain more rights and status.

The flames of ambition had already begun to burn.

“Why… is it like this?” Zhang Caidong also subconsciously repeated Fu Jian's words, at this time, he really didn't understand why it would become like this.

Before, that Wu Hu was indeed annihilated by these human soldiers in the corridor because of underestimating the enemy.

Only he survived because he was clever and cunning and didn't want to accompany Wu Hu to his death, so he took the lead in escaping.

So he was appreciated by the general manager for reporting information and became a formal employee.

He was also named the commander of the temporary convoy.

Everything was developing for the better.

But I just don't know why it has become like this now?

Even he was attracted by the reward of 50 imprint fragments, lost his mind, and even came to the city wall, causing him to be trapped here, completely losing the possibility of escape!

Yes, completely lost the possibility of escape.

Especially looking at the city wall, those human heavy cavalry who were covered in heavy armor and wreaking havoc.

Easily slaughtering those pig-headed people and spirit world creatures that still remained in the open ground outside the city wall.

No one can resist at all, they can only be forced to be slaughtered, forced to let their lives become the achievements of those human heavy cavalry.

Such a miserable scene.

Made this Zhang Caidong really desperate.

“What to do?!” Especially when Fu Jian was still hysterically accusing himself at this time, with a distorted look that sprayed saliva on his face, Zhang Caidong suddenly smiled: “It's very simple.”

“What?” Fu Jian's entire fat face showed a slightly stunned look at this time.

And a certain hopeful look appeared.

He thought Zhang Cai Dong really had a solution.

“Of course I have a solution.” Zhang Cai Dong understood Fu Jian's look. He glanced at this guy who always called him 'Big Brother' and a sinister smile cracked on his face.

Right in Fu Jian's eyes, where fear was beginning to surface, he reached out and pulled out his curved blade.

‘Pfft!’

Then he heavily stabbed it into Fu Jian's chest, piercing through the ribs and directly into the heart.

Destroying the entire operation of the heart.

“You!!!” Fu Jian's face was filled with disbelief, spitting out blood with every word, spraying onto Zhang Cai Dong's face, but because his heart had been pierced, he couldn't speak a complete sentence.

Because blood had already rushed into his throat, making it impossible for him to continue speaking effectively.

But Zhang Cai Dong still understood what Fu Jian wanted to say.

“The Diesel Company certainly won't let me go, but my dear Big Brother Fu Jian, after this, will there even be a Diesel Company?”

Zhang Cai Dong let out a cold laugh.

Looking at Fu Jian's eyes, which were already losing their light, and the expression of utter shock on his face.

Instead, he directly pulled his curved blade out of his chest, and looking at the head that clearly resembled a pig, he fiercely hacked at the thick neck again and again.

The surrounding Blue Star humans who had a relatively good relationship with him were dumbfounded at this moment.

But they instantly understood Zhang Cai Dong's meaning.

One by one, they exchanged glances, drew their curved blades or wolf-tooth clubs, and fiercely attacked those formal employees of the Diesel Company around them.

Those formal employees, who hadn't expected that these temporary workers from the temporary convoy would attack their own people, didn't even have time to react before they were all knocked down with a thud by the wolf-tooth clubs and battle axes that were slamming down on their heads, and they fell asleep, never to make a sound again.

‘Pfft!’

At this moment, Zhang Cai Dong chopped off Fu Jian's head with a single blade.

Then, he raised it high above his head and shouted loudly to the surrounding Swadian light infantry and Lake Rat gang members who had stopped fighting upon seeing this change:

“We surrender! We surrender!”

“We surrender!”

And those temporary workers from the temporary convoy on the city wall, holding weapons, also threw away the weapons in their hands, raised their hands, and shouted surrender.

The sound was so loud that even Shen Mu, who was still watching the battle on the castle wall, could clearly hear it.

“They surrendered!” At this moment, Manid also put away the war crossbow in his hand, with a look of joy on his face.

“This is, won?! ” Even the halfling elder Polo, and that Miss Liuna, at the crenellations on the edge of the city wall, looked at those pig-headed people who had been slaughtered and basically turned into corpses, and couldn't help but look at each other, seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

This was the main force sent out by the Diesel Company, which had been intimidating the entire Balihe Street for three years!

They were completely annihilated on the city wall like this.

The remaining remnant troops were still being chased by the heavy cavalry, and it seemed they were about to be completely wiped out.

Such a scene was unimaginable to the halfling elder Polo!

But it actually appeared before his eyes!

“Lord Shen Mu… are you really the kind of human race that those legendary beings have bestowed blessings upon?” The halfling elder Polo thought of some rumors he had heard when he was in the spirit world.

It seemed that it had already been confirmed at this time!

Otherwise, how could he explain that Shen Mu's troops were so powerful and loyal to him?

And how could he summon heavy cavalry troops that were even stronger than the Lionheart Principality at any time?

How else could he explain the fact that Shen Mu's troops, from infantry to archers, were so elite!?

It was impossible to explain with common sense!

Apart from those powerful believer legions hidden in the gods' kingdoms, where in the spirit world of the main material plane could there be such a powerful kingdom or empire that could easily build such an elite army?

At least listening to the names those humans were shouting, the halfling elder Polo dared to be sure that he had never heard of them!

And in front of Shen Mu, the dialogue box floated on the retina, indicating that the task stage had indeed ended.

[Ding! Congratulations! You and your troops have completed the second wave of enemy attacks! Successfully resisted the enemy's general attack! Completed your epic victory!]

[Because of your excellent performance, you have additionally obtained—Golden Treasure Chest × 1!]

[Your bravery has earned you a reward of '+1 Legendary Reputation' in the entire Mount \u0026 Blade world!]

[You have received the reward for the second stage of the temporary mission—① 10,000 denars!]

“Hmm?” Shen Mu scanned the dialogue box.

He discovered that because of his excellent performance, he had once again obtained an epic victory, and he had also been rewarded with a new golden treasure chest, as well as a new +1 point reward for the entire Mount \u0026 Blade world!

“This is very good.” Shen Mu of course accepted everything, and he had a special liking for the golden treasure chest.

This was a rules-type treasure chest!

It would definitely produce good things!

And at this moment, in front of Shen Mu, a new dialogue box actually refreshed again.

[Ding! Your victory has made the remaining enemies extremely frightened, so they have chosen to surrender!]

[The third stage of the temporary mission begins—Prisoners or Corpses.]

[Stage Mission Briefing: Now, a group of enemies wants to surrender. But you are extremely disgusted with this kind of guy who is two-faced and has no bottom line. Especially since this guy is the culprit who brought the Diesel Company to bully you!]

[Temporary Mission Choice: ① Accept the prisoners. Your kindness is worthy of praise. Since they have already surrendered, then you are willing to accept the prisoners.]

[Choice Reward: Lawful Good Alignment. You respect order and are willing to join the good camp. For many beings, this is choosing a side in advance.]

[Temporary Mission Choice: ② Kill the prisoners. Since they are the culprits and some guys with no bottom line, then killing them to publicize your prestige is also a good choice.]

[Choice Reward: Lawful Evil Alignment. You respect order, but you don't value the result that much. For many beings, this is choosing a side in advance.]

“Hmm! What is this?” Shen Mu's face changed slightly as he looked at the dialogue box that appeared in front of him.

He didn't understand what the content that appeared meant.

“Also Lawful Good alignment judgment? Also Lawful Evil alignment judgment?” Shen Mu was a little puzzled, and even a little disdainful: “Just killing the prisoners counts as Lawful Evil alignment? Isn't this a bit of a joke?”

This was simply a joke!

But Shen Mu was a little pensive as he looked at the content in the dialogue box at this time.

The system explained the situation separately, then it was definitely not an ordinary situation.

Since it was brought up like this.

Shen Mu had to treat it more cautiously.

Perhaps this was some kind of hint that the Mount \u0026 Blade system couldn't explicitly tell Shen Mu after detecting certain things, and then used the system mission to appear!

“Then, what should I choose?” Shen Mu frowned at this time, looking at the content in the dialogue box, he was really a little hesitant.

This choice was very simple.

It was just choosing to kill the prisoners or accept the prisoners.

Looking up at those guys who were still standing on the city wall, raising their hands and choosing to surrender.

During Shen Mu's contemplation, he also thought of the difference between the good camp and the evil camp in the game, and couldn't help but slightly pursed his lips:

“Generally speaking, the good camp is always more popular, right?”

He made a decision.
