My Magic Age

This war, which was doomed to fail for the barbarians from the beginning, finally ended when the first warm southeast trade wind blew into the province of Sloyte in early spring.

…

This war began on the eve of dawn. Perhaps it was a coincidence, or perhaps it was God's favor for those who were prepared. At the beginning of this battle, Senior Benjamin established his first merit in his military career.

On the night when he was on duty in the Knights of the Guard Battalion, he first discovered the barbarians who were preparing to attack the city before dawn.

The reason was that before going to bed last night, he asked his companions to tie him down to the city wall and set up ten warning magic traps in front of the position near the moat on this side of the city wall.

Unexpectedly, seven traps were stepped on by the barbarians who sneaked up at night. Ordinary "Frost Scrolls" could not cause any harm to the barbarians, and even the feeling of cold was so weak, but the frost scrolls exploded with large pieces of ice fog. The ice fog exploded from the seven "Frost" magic scrolls, which not only blocked the barbarians' sight, but also woke up the soldiers guarding the city wall who were sleeping soundly.

The scenery under the city was filled with ice fog, and suddenly it was like a mirror shattered. The originally peaceful dark night scenery suddenly turned into a frozen moat full of barbarians who were walking slowly on foot - a whole team of barbarians!

The soldiers climbed out of the sleeping bags on the top of the city with pale faces, watching nearly a thousand barbarian soldiers crowding in the ice fog under the city, like a group of locusts stepping over the moat.

Benjamin shouted to the messenger who was responsible for blowing the battle horn: "Blow the horn quickly, the barbarians under the city have begun to attack the city!"

"Woo woo woo..."

The horn made of the long rhino horn of the one-horned bison made a dull humming sound. In an instant, the entire northern wall was lit up with swords and weapons. The guards hurriedly climbed out of their sleeping bags and saw the barbarians approaching the city. They hurriedly moved huge stones from the pile of supplies behind the city wall to the parapets of the city wall.

"What's going on? Where are the sentries?" A knight in heavy armor strode up and shouted at the soldier in charge of guarding the sentry post: "Why didn't you report so many barbarians coming up?"

The soldier guarding the sentry post replied with a panicked face: "Sir, everything was normal under the city before, these barbarians suddenly appeared!"

He looked at the knight with a guilty conscience, and felt that his seemingly excuse to get rid of the guilt was a little ridiculous, but in fact it was like this.

The knight cursed fiercely: "Ridiculous!"

If it wasn't in front of the battle, perhaps the soldier on sentry duty would have been whipped.

General Willy Mom walked over and said, "Stop talking. It's the 'mass camouflage' of the barbarian wizard. Let's prepare for battle! Messenger, find the armor-piercing arrows. We have to suppress this charge!"

The messenger on the side secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied, "Yes, General!"

Seeing a large number of barbarians coming up from the other side of the moat under the mist, the officer on duty, Willy Mom, decisively ordered the soldiers guarding the city to directly use armor-piercing arrows, which very strongly blocked the first round of barbarian attacks. The arrowhead of the iron rod armor-piercing arrow with three-edged barbs was made of magic black iron powder. It can penetrate a one-centimeter thick shield with a strong bow within twenty steps. Ordinary barbarian warriors only have a breastplate on their hearts. They dare to go to the battle to attack the city with axes while wearing hard bear skin shorts and wolf skin boots.

The chest of the barbarians, who are nearly 250 cm tall, is very broad. Their strong chest muscles make them fearless of ordinary arrows. At this time, the great power of the armor-piercing arrow is undoubtedly demonstrated. The nearly three-inch-long sword tip can easily penetrate the thick chest of the barbarians. Moreover, this kind of arrow is shot into the muscle and it is difficult to pull it out quickly. If it is pulled out recklessly, the three-edged barbs on the arrow tip will damage the muscle fibers and cause irreparable trauma.

Because many barbarians have suffered enough from armor-piercing arrows, it can be said that the barbarians hate the armor-piercing arrows of the human race very much. Armor-piercing arrows cannot be popularized in the army for various reasons. There are many reasons. The high cost, low output, and tight military expenditure are the main factors. Therefore, on the battlefield, once a human warrior uses an armor-piercing arrow, he will be the first target of the barbarians.

In such a life-or-death siege, the defenders have no way out. Being a deserter is more terrible than death. Therefore, it is the wisest choice to defeat the enemy with thundering means at the beginning. The soldiers of the guard camp had learned archery. After a while, armor-piercing arrows rained down from the top of the city. Senior Benjamin was also standing in the team defending the city. He pulled the alloy bow with all his strength and shot an armor-piercing arrow.

For a moment, the armor-piercing arrows killed the barbarian warriors who had no armor to protect them. The barbarians who rushed to the front were shot dead in an instant. The barbarian warriors who followed behind saw their companions died tragically. Instead of retreating, they ran towards the city more quickly with their heads down in a ferocious manner.

A dozen barbarian warriors mixed in the crowd attacking the city. The moment they approached the city, they took a running start in the rain of arrows, accelerated on the scaffolding set up by two barbarians, and were suddenly lifted up by the two barbarians. With the help of this huge momentum, he leaped high into the air and landed directly on the city wall which was more than 30 meters high. He held a huge axe and performed the "Whirlwind Slash" at the same time, like a dozen meat grinders, creating a bloody storm on the city wall.

These barbarian warriors, whose strength was comparable to that of level 10 warriors, slaughtered wantonly on the city wall, strangling all the warriors on this section of the city wall in an instant, and quickly advanced to both sides along the city wall. Benjamin happened to be stationed on this section of the city wall. He and several warriors were forced to retreat to the side of the arrow stack. They leaned against the high arrow stack with their backs, holding long spears in their hands and desperately resisting the attack of a barbarian warrior.

The barbarian warrior holding the axe had a ferocious grin on his face. The axe in his hand was around his body, spinning wildly and rushing towards Benjamin. The ironwood pole of the halberd was chopped into several pieces by the axe. Benjamin and several companions looked at the barbarian warrior approaching like a meat grinder in despair...

A huge two-handed sword held up the axe chopped down by the barbarian warrior. A knight wearing full armor stood in front of Benjamin and resisted the fierce blow for him, but the bluestone slab under the knight's feet was crushed by him. The barbarian warrior looked at the knight who suddenly appeared in front of him in astonishment, raised the axe high with a fierce look on his face, and chopped heavily on the two-handed sword that had no time to withdraw.

The knight was chopped back by the huge force, and his back hit Benjamin's chest. The huge force made Benjamin's throat sweet and spurted out a mouthful of warm blood.

The knight in full armor took another step forward with difficulty. He found that he could not retreat or avoid the barbarian warrior's attack.

The knight's strength was slightly inferior to that of the barbarian warrior. The barbarian's continuous slashing made him overwhelmed for a while. At this time, any moves and fighting skills seemed so pale and powerless in front of strength. When he blocked the barbarian's fifth slash, the knight's arms were completely numb and he couldn't lift the giant two-handed sword in his hand.

The barbarian warrior on the opposite side suddenly jumped up...

"Jumping slash"

The knight sighed helplessly. After all, he was slightly inferior to the barbarian warrior on the ice and snow tundra in strength, but even though he knew he was dead, he didn't take another step back.

This may be the so-called chivalry. Benjamin, who was standing behind the knight, felt a warm current passing through his chest. He suddenly remembered the pistol hanging on his waist, and his hand couldn't help but touch it.

With a "bang", a pool of blood suddenly gushed out of the barbarian's eye sockets, and a heart-wrenching roar accompanied the axe that chopped down. Unfortunately, he lost his vision in one eye at this time. The big knight wearing full-coverage armor would never miss such an opportunity. He rolled sideways on the ground to avoid the fatal axe. The giant two-handed sword in his hand was like a venomous snake spitting out its tongue, inserted from under the barbarian warrior's left rib, and directly cut the artery above the heart, and blood mist spurted out all at once.

The barbarian warrior grabbed the giant two-handed sword with both hands, knelt on the ground and died angrily and unwillingly.

The big knight picked up the axe that the barbarian warrior threw on the ground, stood up and made a victory and glory gesture to Benjamin, and rushed to the most stalemate place of the battle without hesitation, where the heavy infantry who had just come from the rear to support were killed and retreated by three barbarian warriors on the city wall.

Benjamin instinctively looked to the left, and found that the most elite heavy infantrymen in the guard camp, holding heavy spears, rushed here along the passages on both sides of the city wall, and collided with the dozens of barbarian warriors. However, even the most elite heavy infantrymen in the El City Guard Camp were still far inferior to the barbarian warriors in terms of strength. They needed three to five people to fight a barbarian to a draw, but on this not-so-wide city wall, it was impossible to arrange a military formation. At this time, the barbarian warriors with fewer people and stronger individual strength took the advantage, and the heavy infantrymen in the guard camp suffered heavy losses for a while.

The warrior companion beside him sat pale and slumped aside. It seemed that the "Death Coming" just now had scared him out of his wits, and his legs were so weak that he couldn't stand up.

Benjamin ignored his companions, but touched the alloy bow beside him, pulled out an armor-piercing arrow from the quiver, and shot it at the barbarian warriors on the city wall.

The barbarians on the other side of the moat drove the human slaves to push the heavy siege vehicles across the ice of the moat. Amid the desperate cries, the siege vehicles that were more than 40 meters high turned the huge wooden wheels and slowly moved forward. Several barbarians holding short spears kept waving their arms and throwing the short spears made of pure iron. At one time, the flying spears that fell from the sky pierced the chests of several archers on the city wall.

There were also barbarian warriors throwing short spears on the siege vehicles who were constantly hit by arrows and fell from the siege vehicles that were dozens of meters high.

The cry of the lion eagle came from afar. The lion eagle knights stationed here by the North Wind Legion finally rushed into the battlefield. For the barbarians, these lion eagle knights flying in the sky can only be fought with flying axes, but as long as the lion eagle knights maintain a certain altitude, the barbarians have no way to deal with them. Each lion eagle knight is very powerful and good at throwing flying spears. They can even snipe the great witches in the barbarian team from a high altitude. Sure enough, those great witches disappeared after the lion eagle knights appeared.

……

In just a quarter of an hour, the northern city wall was captured by the barbarians. It was nearly a hundred meters long. At this time, the sound of the reeds being tightened was heard from the arrow tower dozens of meters away. The ballista in the tower After finally adjusting the shooting angle, the bowstring made a loud buzzing sound, and a five-meter-long giant crossbow arrow turned into a phantom, piercing the air with a sharp buzzing sound, and directly hit the barbarian warrior on the city wall. .

The barbarian warrior heard a strange noise behind him, and instinctively swung his giant ax to slash behind him. When he turned around completely, he was shocked to find that a super-large crossbow arrow that was three minutes thicker than his own thigh was approaching. In front of him, the sharp conical arrow tip was only one meter long. It directly knocked away the mountain ax in the hand of the barbarian warrior. The entire giant crossbow penetrated the body of the barbarian warrior and left a mark on the chest of the barbarian warrior. A bloody hole the size of a sea bowl.

At this moment, the defenders of the El City Guard Battalion sounded the horn for counterattack.

The crossbows on several arrow towers aimed directly at the dozen barbarian warriors on the city wall. With the cooperation of the archers and heavy infantry, the hundred-meter-long city wall that was captured by the barbarian warriors lost ground. They were constantly taken back by the soldiers of the guard camp.

At the same time, a huge siege vehicle had successfully crossed the ice of the moat and made a huge roar when it hit the city wall.

A flood of barbarian warriors climbed up the wooden steps behind the siege vehicle, hoping to support the dozens of barbarian warriors who were fighting alone on top of the city. Those tribal warriors who fought one against ten were every barbarian. Heroes in the eyes of warriors, they use their lives to block all the pressure on the city wall, allowing these barbarian warriors to climb up smoothly.

With a loud "boom", another huge siege vehicle hit the city wall. However, this giant siege vehicle was too heavy and not very strong. The moment it came into contact with the city wall, it had already collapsed. Collapsed. Although the siege vehicle collapsed, the wooden steps remained, and the barbarians waiting below, holding the huge door panels high, swarmed up.

The soldiers stationed on the city wall gathered together, holding hard bows in their hands, following the heavy infantry, trying to drive off the dozen barbarian warriors who were guarding the city wall.

The current situation is not optimistic. If there is no way to force the barbarian warriors off the city wall before those barbarian warriors climb up the city wall, then half of the battle will have been lost.

Benjamin was among the crowd, firing bows and arrows constantly, and naturally he was very anxious.

However, those crazy barbarian warriors, even if their bodies are covered with armor-piercing arrows like hedgehogs, will not retreat as long as they still have breath.

A magician wearing a silver magical robe stood on a magic broom and sped through the air.

Benjamin looked carefully and found out that it was Teacher Ethan from the Magic Academy. He found that his gorgeous robe was embroidered with black magic runes, and his whole body was covered with a transparent air mask. He saw him fall flexibly into the city. Head, only a few meters away from the barbarians on the siege vehicle, suddenly stood on the magic broom and pushed his hands forward.

"Air Explosion Technique"

A huge and irresistible thrust suddenly appeared in the air, and it actually blew all the barbarian warriors on the siege vehicle down to the bottom of the city!

Then he stood on the magic broom and flew high. As he slowly twisted the spell, hundreds of 'wind blades' appeared around his body. Under his precise control, they flew towards the city walls one after another. The barbarian warriors on board, the unparalleled "wind blade", noticed the moment and quickly strangled those few wind blade barbarians who had become the last of their powerful crossbows.

As the magicians from the Magic Academy joined the battle group, the balance of victory finally quickly shifted towards El City.

As the second batch of rescuers from the Magic Academy to support the North City Wall War Zone, I rushed to the battlefield at ten o'clock in the morning and used "water therapy" to treat the wounded soldiers who were transported down from the city wall...

At this time, I happened to see senior Benjamin among the people transporting the wounded soldiers. He seemed to have suffered some minor injuries, but he still seemed to be in good spirits. We didn't even have time to say hello.

After the magicians from the magic academy joined in, the battle situation changed qualitatively. The city wall that was about to be breached was recaptured by the soldiers of the guard camp.

…

It was already half a month before this battle was completely won.

The next time I saw Senior Benjamin was on the day of the counterattack, when I was on duty at the aid station.

Senior Benjamin ran in in a panic. At that time, I saw that he looked haggard. He was so thin that I could hardly recognize him. He had an unpleasant sour smell on his body. I'm afraid he hadn't washed himself in a while. After taking a shower, he desperately pulled me from the rescue station to the bottom of the north city wall. A great knight wearing full armor was lying on the ground covered in blood. He had several very serious wounds on his body and fell into In a deep coma.

Senior Benjamin said to me in a hoarse voice: "Jijia, hurry up and save him. You must help me save him!"

I rolled my eyes speechlessly, not daring to hesitate at all, and quickly unfolded a magic scroll of 'hydrotherapy'. At least I couldn't let him die before treating the wound.

I asked the knight's attendant to help me take off his armor while I quickly checked his wounds and said to Senior Benjamin: "If Senior Mia was here, I would have a better chance. I can only sew up his wounds as much as possible. His injuries are too severe and he has lost too much blood. Whether he can wake up depends on his willpower and desire to survive."

"She is trapped in the temple and can't come back!" He said weakly

Benjamin looked at the stone wall and sat on the ground all of a sudden, looking very tired...
