A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

Before Shen Mu's eyes, dialogue boxes from the system popped up one after another.

However, on Shen Mu's body, that surge that originally gushed out from his heart, that feeling that brought him an extreme refreshing sensation even at the soul level,

even surged out across the entire city wall!

'Boom!'

An invisible gale, centered on Shen Mu's body, began to howl in all directions.

Coincidentally, it merged with the breeze from the Suno Plains that appeared for 5 minutes every 30 minutes, instantly permeating the entire area of Shen Mu's village, "Dertherim"!

Making countless gentle, emerald-green mists rise within the entire Dertherim area.

Like soft gauze, carrying twinkling white light spots, it fell on all the buildings, farmlands, livestock, and personnel within this range.

Especially those Swadian militiamen who were still struggling to resist the demons in the midst of fierce fighting.

Those Lake Rat Gang veterans and newcomers who noticed something was wrong, drew their woodland axes and small battle axes, and rushed over, attempting to support those militiamen.

As well as the Vaegir archers on the city wall, who were still taking advantage of the last ten seconds or so of the magic scroll's effective time.

Using the fastest speed, they rained down arrows like a string of pearls.

At this moment, they were all bathed in that faint emerald-green mist, mixed with some white data streams, as the Suno breeze swept through the entire village, this also contained a series of fragrances such as wheat fragrance, floral fragrance, earthy fragrance, autumn fruit fragrance, and honey sweetness compound fragrance.

Just smelling it made them feel refreshed all over.

Taking a few more breaths could effectively eliminate fatigue.

Contact with the emerald-green mist even rapidly healed the soreness caused by excessive use of muscles on their bodies during this process.

Even the panicked and anxious emotions that had begun to arise because the abyss demons had broken through the spear phalanx and began to enter an unfavorable melee battle situation instantly calmed down.

"Calm down! Form ranks!"

These Swadian militiamen regained their composure, and under the command of their respective captains, quickly formed battle squads one after another.

The Swadian militiamen in the front row, forming the spear phalanx, were still holding their shields, gripping the spears in their hands, stabbing forward, resisting the abyss demons charging head-on.

The Swadian militiamen in the back row, who had already entered melee combat with those slender, tall Babu demons wielding long-bladed spears, immediately raised the old kite shields on their left arms.

First, they used their shields to protect their bodies, preventing them from being injured by the Babu demons' long-bladed spears.

Then, they immediately threw away the spears in their hands and pulled out the pointed-mouth hoe from their waists.

Then, looking at the Babu demons who had their backs to them, trapped in the encirclement of so many Swadian militiamen, a fierce look appeared in their eyes, and they raised the pointed-mouth hoe and smashed it at the back of their spines or the back of their heads.

Only the sharp sound of flesh entering and bones shattering could be heard amidst the noisy shouts.

In just over ten breaths.

Seven or eight Babu demons were either chopped down to the ground by the Lake Rat Gang members who had rushed over with axes.

Or they were smashed to death on the spot by these Swadian militiamen who had regained their composure, using the pointed-mouth hoes in their hands, which could even smash through iron armor and had extremely sharp tips, directly breaking their spines and heads!

And all around, there were still Swadian militiamen who had calmed down, picking up the spears in their hands and stabbing over.

It wasn't just one Swadian militiaman using a spear to stab over.

But seven or eight!

As long as the distance around was a little far, looking at the Babu demons who were already trapped in their encirclement, they stabbed their spears over.

Plus the finishing blows and sneak attacks from others, as well as the fish darts and harpoons thrown over with the sound of wind.

Another seventeen or eighteen Babu demons were knocked to the ground!

Those Babu demons, who thought they had disrupted the human soldiers' formation and were about to start a massacre, were all dazed, and instead, they began to look terrified.

After all, breaking into the enemy's formation, if the tactic is perfect, it's called a raid.

But if it's not perfect.

Then it becomes throwing oneself into a trap, entering the encirclement of the human soldiers, and being strangled to death!

All of this.

Was brought about by that emerald-green light released from Shen Mu's body!

And the changes it brought to Shen Mu were even more amazing!

Thus, on Shen Mu's retina, the content of these dialogue boxes quickly refreshed and appeared.

"The character template has reached Tier 5, the levels of two nature-based spells have been increased, the passive skill of Nature Affinity has been obtained, and the Breeze Rule has been amplified."

Shen Mu scanned the content in the dialogue box.

His emotions fluctuated slightly.

Because when he followed the dialogue box and came to the part about the Sacred Tree Knight Order, his heartbeat accelerated slightly:

"+1 point of reputation with all Mount \u0026 Blade nature-based factions, +1 point of reputation with the Pendor World, and then the recognition of the Sacred Tree Knight Order, and they even sent 10 Sacred Tree Knights and 40 Sacred Tree Riders to bring me... a Sacred Oak seed with different rewards depending on the germination of the plant and the growth of the sapling!"

Shen Mu felt that his heart was trembling a little.

This reward is too generous!

He didn't expect that this was just through the Mount \u0026 Blade system, analyzing a so-called 'Heart of Nature', a kind of curiosity!

Just as Shen Mu subconsciously opened his eyes, he found that his palm was empty.

'Buzz!'

At this time, in Shen Mu's heart, during the intense beating process, a bit of coolness would occasionally appear all over his body with the beating of his heart.

This gave Simu a feeling of inexhaustible strength throughout his body, and absolute composure in his mind.

“Was it absorbed by the Mount \u0026 Blade system?”

Simu pondered, recalling the final moments of his Mount \u0026 Blade system analyzing the gem.

It directly absorbed the scene of the Heart of Nature.

“Wait? These equipment on me…!”

At this moment, Simu looked at his hands, which had already transformed from shiny chainmail gloves into chainmail gloves with gold edges and exquisite sapling patterns, his expression slightly changing:

“This is the standard equipment of the Holy Tree Knight in the game, made with various materials and added mithril, which can effectively resist magical erosion and harm magical creatures!”

The heavy chainmail under the white robe had also transformed into heavy chainmail with gold edges, along with a white velvet robe with crimson patterns.

There were also gold-trimmed chainmail bracers and gold-trimmed chainmail boots.

Even the helmet, also adorned with gold trim, featuring an elegant pointed top and cheek guards, had been upgraded to a better version!

Before Simu could be surprised, a coolness arose in his heart, and a warm sensation emerged at the center of his brow.

Along with these sensations, various experiences from the Mount \u0026 Blade system flooded Simu's mind.

Experiences related to the noble Holy Tree Knight.

Knightly etiquette, aristocratic bearing, appreciation for various weapons, equipment, and collectibles…

Also, how to fight enemies with the corresponding weapons, how to ride a Holy Tree armored steed, and how to use a lance, sword, and shield on horseback…

Even how to command Holy Tree troops in battle, and how to train squires and knightly attendants.

These experiences were all-encompassing.

All of them were completely extracted from the game by Simu through the Mount \u0026 Blade system, and materialized in the real world within his own mind.

Becoming experiences that Simu possessed, as if he had trained for decades and had fully mastered them!

“Kill! For Swadia!”

“For the Lake Rat Gang!”

“Long live the Kingdom of Vaegirs!”

Just as Simu was still stunned, savoring the various experiences instilled by the Mount \u0026 Blade system, the loud shouts beside him directly awakened him.

At the breach in the city gate.

The Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers loyal to him were already engaged in a fierce and tragic battle with the Abyss Demons that had poured in, and it was extremely intense!

The Tier 2 Swadian Militiamen lived up to their reputation as all-round infantry.

As low-level, cannon fodder units in other kingdoms.

They were now using large shields, spears, and pointed hoes for armor-breaking, blocking the melee attacks of the Barbed Demons that jumped in, attempting to disrupt the spear formation.

Although these Swadian Militiamen were suffering a sharp increase in casualties.

They were indeed holding those demons in place.

Not only were they unable to expand and disrupt the formation, but even these Barbed Demons, with their high attack and low defense, were trapped in place, quickly being slaughtered on the spot by the Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers coming from all directions.

Especially the Lake Rat Gang members who had been waiting in the rear of these Swadian Militiamen.

They were now proving to be extremely useful!

Not only were they quickly throwing out harpoons and fish darts, slowing down the Abyss Demons' attack speed.

But also, led by the Lake Rat Gang Destroyers, Tier 4 peak throwing heavy infantry wearing Northern leather chainmail, they charged forward with melee axes and fought with the Barbed Demons.

At this time, relying solely on the Swadian Militiamen's close combat fighting ability was clearly unwise.

These Lake Rat Gang members also had high attack and low defense.

They excelled at close combat fighting, and were also very good at taking advantage of the chaos to steal damage.

They were the Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers who inflicted the most casualties on the Barbed Demons who dared to jump in!

In the center of the 32 Swadian Sergeants, Fatis, holding his spear and quickly thrusting forward, was also shouting to boost morale: “Hold on! Hold on! The honor of Swadia! It depends on us to hold on!”

He was well aware that at this time, the line of defense composed of spear formations and pike formations must not be disrupted.

They had to hold on.

If they held on, they could forcefully suppress the Abyss Demons charging at them, engaging them in a stalemate of close combat.

But if they couldn't hold on.

Then they would be defeated in an instant, easily slaughtered by the Abyss Demons.

Fatis didn't want to be defeated, nor did he want to die in battle, and even more so, he didn't want to flee without honor.

Therefore, he was cheering loudly.

Especially after the emerald green light showered down, absorbing the emerald green mist, and restoring some of his strength, he was even more loudly encouraging and cheering, allowing these soldiers of the Swadian Kingdom to stand their ground with the encouragement of honor, no longer retreating!

“It seems I can also directly join the battlefield now!”

Simu looked at the Swadian Militiamen who were still fighting, and the increasing number of Abyss Demons pouring in at the city wall breach.

He slowly reached out and gripped his knightly longsword, which was also adorned with golden Holy Tree patterns.

In his mind, the combat experience of a Holy Tree Knight was readily available!

‘Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!’

Just as Simu reached out and grasped the sword hilt, a whistling wind sound appeared beside Simu's ear.

Simu's sixth sense instantly made him leap away.

Even though he was wearing heavy chainmail all over his body, he relied on the abundant strength brought by the coolness in his heart, and rolled around on the city wall, regaining his balance.

‘Bang!’

But at the position where he had just been standing, a large 3-meter-long blade-spear had been nailed there.

Simu turned his head.

He discovered that at some point, the Barbed Demon Chieftain, who had been wandering 50 meters away as if wary of this side, that higher demon, had come to within 10 meters.

He had made a throwing motion!

Obviously.

This large blade-spear was thrown out by this Barbed Demon Chieftain.

Seeing that his throw had not been successful.

On that distorted and hideous face, filled with madness and frenzy, appeared resentment, jealousy, and ecstatic expression, along with a series of sharp, sinister laughter:

“Child of Nature! I actually encountered a Child of Nature! A Child of Nature!”

“Kill you! Offer it to the Abyss Consciousness! I can receive the blessing of the Abyss Consciousness! Receive the love of the Abyss Consciousness!”

“Perhaps… I might also be qualified to become… a Child of the Abyss!!!”

Then, outside the city wall, the Barbed Demon Chieftain, who should be 4 meters tall when standing straight, but like those Barbed Demons, hunched over, usually about 3 meters tall, directly charged over.

Even because of the jealousy in his heart, he didn't care about the 3-meter-wide and 5-meter-deep trench at all.

His entire body jumped directly onto the concrete city wall.

His sharp claws seemed to pierce through tofu dregs, directly sinking into the solid concrete, with his sharp claws, he actually climbed up the 10-meter-high city wall like an Alien!

“Retreat!” Simu had no intention of staying at this time, and directly waved his hand to signal the 80 Vaegir Archers to retreat immediately.

He also turned around and ran towards the direction of the keep castle.

His face was extremely solemn.

Not running was foolish.

This Abyss Demon, more than 3 meters tall, like a small giant, also used a weapon more than 3 meters long, resembling a spear with long blade-slashing capabilities.

Staying here, even if he had become a Tier 5 Holy Tree Knight, possessing rich combat experience.

He was afraid that he could not withstand a few attacks from this Abyss Demon, and he would have to be defeated.

Moreover, in his mind.

The combat experience from the Holy Tree Knight also unhesitatingly told him.

Now, the best tactic was to run!

“Jie jie jie jie jie jie!”

“Child of Nature! As long as I kill this Child of Nature! I can obtain great merit!”

“This is greater merit than killing those Hell Devils in the Blood War!”

“Jie jie jie jie jie jie!”

The Barbed Demon Chieftain had already climbed onto the city wall.

His 3-meter-tall, skinny but abruptly muscular body, standing on top of the 10-meter-high concrete city wall.

Reaching out and pulling out his large blade-spear.

Turning his head and looking at the human soldiers still fighting below, while glancing at the empty village, a bit of doubt appeared in his scarlet eyes.

This Barbed Demon Chieftain did not see the so-called praying Blue Star humans.

Nor did he see more spirit realm creatures.

But he didn't care.

Watching Shen Mu's figure running towards the castle, the corners of its mouth, filled with sharp teeth, stretched all the way down to its ears.

The jealousy and madness in its eyes were completely taken over by hysterical joy.

"It's right there! You can't escape!"

As it spoke, circles of dark red light rippled in its eyes.

Centered on it, the light surged towards the human armies below, who were still stubbornly resisting and trying to fend off the demon army with their fellow Barbed Devils!

"Mass Fear!"

This Barbed Devil Lord unleashed a spell-like ability bestowed upon it for pleasing the will of the Abyss!

The dark red light immediately surged over.

Causing the Barbed Devils who had rushed in below to cheer and become even more invigorated.

At the same time, it caused the Lake Rat Gang members below, who were still holding their spear formation and fighting fiercely, to be enveloped by the dark red light.

Coupled with seeing the figure of this huge abyssal demon appearing on the city wall.

One by one, they gasped, their minds filled with shock, and even their hearts seemed to be tightly gripped by something.

Making it difficult for them to breathe!

Clearly, they had suffered an absolute shock on the mental level, and their minds had become sluggish!

Fear was taking over their hearts.

'Whirr — —'

Just at this moment, a breeze blew, a breeze from the Suno Plains, bringing with it faint white light and emerald green light.

It gently brushed over the entire village, brushed over those Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers who had suffered mental shock from seeing such a terrifying figure, who were finding it difficult to breathe, and who were trembling with fear.

It directly caused these Mount \u0026 Blade soldiers to shiver as the breeze brushed over them.

The fear that had originally filled their eyes suddenly became clear.

Looking at the Barbed Devils around them, who were still grinning and taking the opportunity to kill them, and the more than twenty companions who had fallen in this short moment.

They were even more enraged.

Raising their weapons, they once again charged towards those skinny abyssal demons who had no armor or shields to block them, and who could still be killed, summoning their courage to swing their weapons and fight again!

"Damn it! This power of natural rules! The main world has already been completely destroyed! The crystal wall system has collapsed! Your power has long been weakened to an extremely insignificant level! How can you still possess such an effect?!"

The Barbed Devil Lord saw that the abyssal aura it had painstakingly accumulated, enough for it to unleash a spell-like ability once, had failed just like that.

The anger and madness in its heart grew even stronger.

After all, it had clearly seen that just now, this human…

Had unleashed the power of more than just one spell!

Thinking of this.

This disparity made it even more jealous, and the fire of jealousy burned in its heart as if it had swallowed charcoal, making it unbearable.

Abyssal demons themselves are chaotic creatures created from the collection of all negative emotions.

Now, even if it had become a high-ranking demon, a lord, it was still filled with various negative emotions.

Abyssal demons are like that!

"Quick! Lend a hand! Get Lord Shen Mu up here!" At this moment, Bandak, who had already moved to the stairs at the junction of the city wall and the platform, saw that Shen Mu had arrived, and immediately called out to the hired crossbowmen to help.

At the same time, Bandak's heavy crossbow didn't stop.

Taking the other hired crossbowmen with him, he directly turned the direction of fire, aimed at the Barbed Devil Lord chasing over on the city wall, and then pulled the trigger.

'Swish swish swish swish swish!'

Sharp screams of tearing through the air rang out one after another.

One by one, sharp crossbow bolts instantly pierced the Barbed Devil Lord's body and face.

But for this Barbed Devil Lord.

This kind of damage was not fatal.

It couldn't even be considered a minor injury.

It was just a slight injury!

It was a Barbed Devil that had been transformed by the will of the Abyss, otherwise it would not have been 3 meters tall, nearly 4 meters tall.

This in itself showed that its physique could no longer be measured by ordinary abyssal demons.

If it were still in the fantasy crystal wall system.

When the will of the Abyss still ruled the bottomless abyss.

Then it would already be comparable to a quasi-legendary existence, the demon ruler of a large area of land in an abyssal layer without an abyssal lord!

Instead of the laughable appearance it had now, only possessing a level 5 existence, without even a few spells and skills, only able to fight dryly with its body!

The explosion of that fantasy crystal wall system not only shattered the entire main world and various great consciousnesses.

It also included the powerful spellcasting ability, which also became extremely weak with the disappearance of those consciousnesses high above, those gods, those abyssal lords!

Coincidentally, it also gave the Blue Star rules, the spirit world rules, and the Mount \u0026 Blade rules that Shen Mu now possessed.

A crucial buffer period!

"Thank you." Shen Mu was helped up onto the platform by the hired crossbowmen, his face solemn at this time.

And reaching out, he also took the initiative to quickly pull up the Viekian archers who were filing up the stairs one by one.

Then he immediately moved to the various corners of the platform, took out the remaining bodkin arrows.

And shot them out one by one at the Barbed Devil Lord chasing over!

This kind of damage accumulated little by little.

Even if it was always a slight injury, it would eventually become a minor injury and a serious injury.

Moreover, as the distance closed, this Barbed Devil Lord did not dare to continue to resist the upcoming attacks.

Because on that platform.

The 4 light ballistae that were originally firing in the direction of the city gate gap had now turned their direction.

Aimed at the city wall.

Aimed at the Barbed Devil Lord who was still running straight towards this side on the 5-meter-wide city wall!

"Damn it!" At this moment, the Barbed Devil Lord's face changed slightly when faced with the javelins on the 4 ballistae.

Gritting its teeth, it raised its hand, raised its long-bladed spear, and wanted to throw it out directly.

First destroy a light ballista and then talk.

"Swarm of Bees!"

But at this time, Shen Mu, who had just had the dialogue box appear in front of him and had briefly sorted through the skills he possessed, saw this harassment-type skill.

It was also a natural-type spell.

However, looking at the large abyssal demon who had already raised its hand and was making a throwing motion.

He still communicated with the system in his mind and directly released this natural-type spell!

'Swish!'

In Shen Mu's palm, a green light spot with a white data stream directly gushed out.

As if it was a emerald green small ball with white light flying out.

The speed of flight was very fast.

Then, it directly smashed into the face of the Barbed Devil Lord who had already come within a range of 30 meters, who had raised its hand and wanted to throw the long-bladed spear in its hand.

'Bang!'

Then, on the upper body of this Barbed Devil Lord, near its face, it exploded with a bang.

Then there were countless 'buzzing' sounds.

One by one, Spirit World Murderous Bees about half the size of a fist actually flew out of the green light ball, vibrating their wings.

Then, with the black poisonous needles at the end, which were as long as a little finger, they fiercely stabbed towards the Barbed Devil Lord!

You must know that what Shen Mu summoned was not just one Spirit World Murderous Bee.

But hundreds of Spirit World Murderous Bees!

A swarm of bees formed together!

The Barbed Devil Lord, who still wanted to throw the long-bladed spear in its hand, did not expect that so many murderous bees would appear, and they also stung towards itself fiercely, and also vibrated their wings to harass it!

"Damn natural-type spell! Damn natural consciousness! Damn child of nature!"

The Barbed Devil Lord angrily howled.

The throwing action also stopped abruptly.

Turning into waving the long-bladed spear in its hand, driving away those Spirit World Murderous Bees that were extremely small in its eyes, or directly劈碎them and falling them to the ground.

It was just that the Barbed Devil Lord did not notice that when these murderous bees appeared and harassed it.

Its original running action also stopped.

It stayed on the city wall for a few seconds.

"Chance!" But this opportunity to stay in place was directly seized by Bandak and those new Lake Rat Gang members.

They were good at seizing opportunities in battle.

Now.

Looking at the abyssal demon who was angrily patting the Spirit World Murderous Bees around its body.

The light ballistae, which had already been loaded and had javelins in them.

Followed the falling wooden hammer.

Instantly.

Turned the javelins into shadows of death that arrived in an instant, and blasted them out alive.

Then, in a flash, he covered the 30-meter distance and arrived before the Barbed Devil Lord, who was still delayed, not noticing the light ballista firing a bolt, his mind consumed by angry emotions.

'Thump!'

A bolt directly pierced the Barbed Devil Lord's ribs.

The terrifying force caused the over 3-meter-tall Barbed Devil Lord to stagger, almost falling on the city wall.

'Crack!' He thrust the long-bladed spear in his hand downwards, piercing the concrete city wall that was like tofu dregs to him, finally stabilizing his form.

"Damn! Damn! Damn!"

Only his scarlet eyes, now filled with hateful bloodshot veins, looked up towards the watchtower, becoming increasingly hysterical and deranged.

This was the first time he had suffered such a serious injury!

You must know.

Even in the bloody battles with Hell devils, he had not suffered such damage.

Nor had he been tricked by natural magic.

Even less had he been... so embarrassed!

"You really are! Damn!"

This Barbed Devil Lord would absolutely not admit that he hadn't anticipated this human lord possessing such natural magic, exceeding his expectations.

Even less would he admit that he had been harassed by a swarm of spirit realm killer bees, restrained for over ten seconds.

He only knew that he must kill the lord before him.

Slaughter all the humans who knew the truth.

Destroy this structure!

Then, after returning to the Abyss plane and leaving this inferior Blue Star world.

He would still be a high-ranking demon.

He would still be a Barbed Devil Lord!

"My shame! Must be washed away with your deaths!"

This Barbed Devil stood up again, facing the arrows that continued to rain down on him, feeling pain due to their cone-shaped heads, yet feeling increasingly humiliated and enraged, he raised the long-bladed spear in his hand and flung it.

'Bang!' The long-bladed spear drew a spinning arc in the air.

It directly smashed into a light ballista.

Along with the three new recruits from the Lake Rat Gang.

They were directly smashed and cut in half at the waist by the sharp, heavy long-bladed spear!

Just now, it was this light ballista that directly struck the Barbed Devil Lord's ribs.

Causing him real, serious injury!

"Damn!"

At this moment, Bandak looked regretfully at the smashed light ballista, raised the heavy crossbow in his hand, looked at the Barbed Devil, whose face was split into an excited grin, aimed at his left eye, and pulled the trigger.

With a 'bang!', the crossbow bolt shot out, directly nailing the Barbed Devil Lord's left eyeball.

Dark red blood flowed from the scarlet eyeball.

Making the Barbed Devil Lord even more furious!

Then, he reached out and forcefully pulled out the bolt from his ribs.

His knees bent slightly, and his slender body suddenly leaped up, then adjusted direction in mid-air, heavily slamming onto the concrete watchtower.

'Bang!' The enormous falling force even smashed a dent into the watchtower.

Directly causing cracks like spiderwebs to appear around it!

"You! All deserve to die!"

This Barbed Devil Lord covered his ribs with one hand, where a large amount of dark red blood was flowing.

His right hand picked up the long-bladed spear he had just thrown, raised it fiercely, and chopped at a light ballista that was close at hand.

'Bang!' As the enormous power exploded.

The entire light ballista also directly shattered into pieces, even the wooden components scattered and flew.

Even more, a dozen mercenary crossbowmen who couldn't dodge in time were hit by these flying, broken parts, their heads bleeding, and they fell to the ground one after another!

"Jie jie jie jie jie jie!"

"This! Is the weak human race!"

Seeing this scene, this Abyss Lord finally let out a satisfied mad laugh.

Only, in the process of laughing madly, the dark red pupil of his remaining right eye found Shen Mu, who was still nearby, using his shield to barely block the flying parts, and was planning to continue retreating.

"You can't escape!" The Barbed Devil Lord grinned, striding towards Shen Mu.

He didn't even care about the mercenary crossbowmen who had fallen to the side.

His purpose was to kill Shen Mu as soon as possible.

Kill this one who, in his eyes, definitely had great value, whose body also had the blessing of natural consciousness fragments, and even whose soul was filled with a massive amount of natural rules—the Child of Nature!

As long as he killed him.

And sacrificed his body and soul to the Abyss consciousness.

Then he.

Would be able to obtain even more rewards!

After all, the Abyss consciousness's greatest enemy was not gods, nor Hell devils.

But the only two that ruled the entire main world, worthy of being called gods, but without true wisdom or intelligence, only instinctive pan-consciousness—Natural Consciousness!

"Bee swarm harassment!" But when Shen Mu was escaping, his mind communicated with the system again.

This natural magic could be released twice a day.

Through the Mount \u0026 Blade system.

For Shen Mu, it was still a cost-free release twice.

Then it meant that at critical moments, such as now, he could effectively harass the enemy.

Not only to make it easier for him to escape.

Perhaps.

There was also a chance to get rid of this Barbed Devil Lord!

"No! I can't completely avoid fighting this Abyss demon!" Shen Mu's face was extremely solemn at this time, through this short moment of contact.

He had already realized the strength of this Abyss demon.

At the same time, in his mind, a flash of inspiration appeared, the fifth-tier Holy Tree Knight character template that he had already completed upgrading!

Accurately speaking.

It should be the equipment on the Holy Tree Knight, these so-called mithril-added equipment that could cause special damage to magical creatures!

"Then that means that the long sword in my hand can more effectively damage magical creatures?!"

Shen Mu thought of the Prophesy of Pendor G version of this Mount \u0026 Blade MOD.

Although this looked like a historical type of MOD.

But Shen Mu knew.

This, was a low-magic fantasy MOD!

"If that's the case!" Shen Mu directly stopped his fleeing steps.

Turning to face the Abyss demon who was surrounded by hundreds of spirit realm killer bees again.

"Bandak!" Shen Mu called out.

"Understood!"

And Bandak at this time followed Shen Mu's gaze towards him, as well as towards the only remaining two light ballistas beside him.

The light ballistas that had already been loaded.

Immediately turned around.

Nodding to those Lake Rat Gang recruits: "Lord Shen Mu and I are responsible for containing him, next, such a close distance, it's up to you two!"

"We understand!" These Lake Rat Gang recruits immediately nodded.

At the same time, they tried their best to start adjusting the angle.

Quickly used the winch to load the crossbow string, locked on the bolt, and then raised the wooden hammer in their hands high.

Towards the Abyss demon who had recovered from the hundreds of spirit realm killer bees, they heavily smashed down, dropping the trigger of the light ballista.

Firing the bolts, forcefully, at a very close distance, towards the upper body of the Abyss demon!

'Pfft!'

'Pfft!'

Two bolts, one directly piercing the chest, one directly piercing the abdominal cavity.

Making the Barbed Devil Lord, who was harassed by the spirit realm killer bees, not expect this at all, heavily staggering and kneeling on the ground!

And at this time, he just happened to kneel in front of Shen Mu, who had already drawn the sword forged with fine steel.

Mixed with mithril.

Claiming to be able to cause additional damage to magical creatures, the Holy Tree Knight's sword.

Aimed at the Barbed Devil Lord's head, and stabbed down!

"Pfft!"

The sword tip led the sword body, directly entering the Barbed Devil's head, a fatal blow!

At the same time, a dialog box appeared in front of Shen Mu's eyes.

[Ding! Support troops from the Holy Tree Knight Order have arrived! They are escorting the precious "Sacred White Oak Seed" to join your team!]

PS: Still asking for monthly tickets, it's a bit late today, but it can be considered a make-up.
