Our family is in decline

"Damn it! How unlucky are we to be chosen."

"That's right, they are quite comfortable. Even if they don't let us in, they won't separate two women out for the brothers to play with."

"Say less. It's better to sleep when you have time. You can have everything in your dreams."

Under a bonfire, three soldiers on night duty were complaining, but just by their lazy looks, you could tell they weren't serious.

In fact, I don't blame them, because they were like this when they were guarding the city gate. Unless there was wine and meat gambling, it would be a good place to be here.

What's more, they didn't see even a wild dog along the way, so they relaxed. I'm afraid even they themselves understood that in the eyes of those people, they were not an army, but just doing odd jobs.

"Go and release the water, who will follow me?"

"Damn, you're the only one who poops and pees a lot."

One person cursed and picked up a spear and followed him. Although he was unsuspecting, the darkness shrouded in the wilderness around him still made people feel pressured.

The remaining one was completely too lazy to care and was still sitting by the campfire, not even holding the spear in his hand.

It's just that he didn't see the two people come back after waiting for a while, so he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

"Did you fucking fall into a pit?"

But just as he finished speaking, an arrow flew out of the darkness and hit his throat.

At the end, he saw the large number of black shadows coming up through the afterglow of the campfire.

He subconsciously grabbed the arrow body and wanted to do something, but something on the arrow seemed to flow into his blood, making him lose control of his body.

This arrow is poisonous!

At this time, the black shadows had already touched up and pulled out the arrows, and the power brought his body down with it.

During the whole process, he struggled and fell without even making a sound. There was only his deflated and twitching body and the blood that kept pouring out of his throat.

At the same time, the bonfires were extinguished one after another, and the darkness swallowed them up again.

Such a fragile sentry was unable to intercept the experienced barbarian mercenaries. When the sentry failed, the sleeping city defenders would face a horrific massacre.

One or two may not be obvious, but ten or dozens of people died, and the strong smell of blood alerted the guards staying in the village.

At the same time, the city defense troops were not stupid, and the sound of so many people rushing up also woke some people up.

"ah!!!"

This scream instantly ignited the whole scene. When the barbarian mercenaries saw that they were exposed, they stopped pretending. They did not care about hiding their actions and began to wave their weapons to harvest the lives of the city defense troops.

The city defense troops had average fighting power. Many people couldn't even see clearly in the darkness. They had no armor, and they were just like mowing grass.

But the city defense army and the convoy totaled nearly two hundred people, and even the pigs couldn't be killed so quickly.

"Hurry into the village!"

I don't know who shouted, so those people seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and rushed towards the entrance of the village.

The cunning of the barbarians was that when they extinguished the bonfires, they specifically set aside those near the village entrance. Now they were not in a hurry to kill them, but were driving them to attack the village.

The knight in charge of the city defense force didn't even bother to put on his armor. Under the protection of his followers, he rolled and crawled towards the entrance of the village, shouting at the soldiers who were blocking the village.

"I am a noble! I am a noble! Open the door quickly!"

But what greeted him was a crossbow arrow, which was not shot on the ground as a warning, but actually shot directly at him.

"Ah!" The knight felt his heart tighten, and then pain flooded into his brain and he couldn't help but scream.

The strange thing is that there was a flash of fire in the darkness. The Guards crossbowman who jumped out to shoot the knight was directly shot in the head by the barbarian musketeer who was hiding in the darkness.

The knight fell to the ground, and all the noise around him slowly faded away. I'm afraid he never thought that it was the barbarians who avenged him.

Those city defense troops were driven by barbarian mercenaries to attack the entrance of the village. It was obviously impossible for the guards in the same village to let them in, so these people were massacred by both sides.

The barbarians extinguished the last bonfire, and a tragic scene broke out at the entrance of the village in the darkness.

The sounds of fighting and screams were accompanied by the trembling of crossbows and the roar of gunfire.

The barbarians were using these people to consume the strength of the village. The dozen or so musketeers who had been prepared for a long time kept shooting. What limited them was the speed of reloading and the indescribable accuracy of the muskets.

But they made a mistake, that is, they mistakenly believed that the soldiers inside were about the same strength as those outside.

Now this move naturally consumed some strength of the Guards, but it gave them time to react.

These personal guards gathered together very quickly, and Jean was also awakened. When he heard that the convoy was attacked, he went crazy with panic.

That’s all of his wealth!

When he rushed out, he saw Michelle who was also woken up and looked very irritable.

"Kill them all for me, and I will reward you heavily."

"Kill, kill, kill!" After hearing this, the soldiers all seemed very excited. After the leader left a dozen people to protect Michelle, he opened the village gate and killed him.

Most of these personal guards have torches. If seen from the sky, it looks like a ball of fire rushing into the darkness, dispelling the cover of the night for the barbarians.

Those barbarian mercenaries probably did not expect that these soldiers would dare to abandon the protection of the earth wall and come out to fight with them.

At the same time, by the light of the fire, I also discovered that these people were not ordinary soldiers with well-equipped equipment, but their own equipment was not bad either!

The supplies of the more important convoy drove them into madness, and their greed made it difficult for them to let go.

Who is afraid of whom!

Just do it and it’s done!

The two sides started fighting instantly. Everyone had armor, and none of them were stinky fish or shrimps that could collapse at the first touch. The intensity was even more exaggerated.

You cut me with a sword, and I stab you with a spear.

You shoot me, I shoot you.

It has to be said that these soldiers rushed out and broke the blockade of the barbarian mercenaries, leaving the ordinary people unattended and everyone hurriedly ran for their lives.

Regardless of the danger, Gene hid behind the wall and looked at the convoy outside the village. He was relieved to see that nothing was wrong. He didn't care at all how many ordinary people driving the convoy died.

It doesn't matter if everyone dies. Who doesn't know how to drive a carriage? Just find a place to recruit a group of serfs or refugees, and you don't need to pay.

As for the city defense troops, although they are a bit troublesome, as long as Michelle is there, he will be fine.

Compared to his timid appearance, Michelle was much more arrogant. He stood in front of him, looking at the fighting battlefield as if he was having fun.

But if you look carefully, you will find that the number of barbarian mercenaries on the frontal battlefield is wrong.

Because these barbarians also used strategies, the massive night attack in front was not only the main attack, but also to attract the attention of those people.

At this time, an elite barbarian group of twenty people went around to the back of the village. The two-meter-high earth wall was easily climbed over in front of them as if it did not exist. The team quickly shuttled through the village.

After all, those barbarians had worked as mercenaries in the empire, and they knew that the people occupying the village must be nobles or commanders. As long as they were killed, these people could be eliminated faster.

So it is easy to guess that these people are performing beheading operations!

"found it."

"over there!"

Michel's arrogant stance exposed himself. At the same time, the leader of the Guards did not realize that these bandits dared to carry out a sneak attack, and they were actually bypassed.

A barbarian mercenary took off a large bow that was almost as tall as a man from his back, and drew two snakes wrapped around the bow. The two ends of the bow string were carved into snake heads. The overall look gave off a wild atmosphere, which was very strange. .

There is no nonsense in shooting arrows when they meet. It is difficult to shoot continuously with such a big bow, but every arrow is deadly.

The arrowheads are iron arrowheads that are rare in the mountains. Working as mercenaries in the empire made up for the gap in their equipment.

But the power of the mountains still exists, because the arrow is contaminated with poison, and as long as it is injured, it will be death.

"careful!"

However, this sneak attack was unexpectedly detected. The man in black robe heard a sound, and the heavy-armored knight beside Michelle moved to block his back.

The arrow hit the armor and sparked, but that was all.

The barbarians had actually been approaching. When they saw that the arrow was blocked, they immediately pounced on Michelle, who was only protected by a dozen soldiers.

At this time, the dozen or so guards also discovered the barbarian team, shouting "Protect the Lord" and stood in front of them to fight with the barbarians.

You must know that there are twenty people in the barbarian sneak attack team. How can those guards...

Suddenly the heavily armored knight who had been beside Michelle raised his weapon, a long-handled war hammer with spikes on the top.

He raised his hand and swung his war hammer across, easily knocking away the approaching barbarian. Looking at the blood that kept spitting out, it was clear that his internal organs were probably ruptured.

You must know that these barbarian mercenaries all wear armor and are physically strong.

He fell to the ground with just one blow and couldn't get up. One can imagine how terrifying the power of the heavily armored knight was!

He can easily kill barbarians wearing armor, but when barbarians swing their weapons and land on him, there is no way to penetrate him.

He didn't even need to move. When he stood in front of him, the barbarians felt as if they were suffocated by a solid wall.

An individual's combat ability appears limited in front of a large army, but he shows great power in such small-scale conflicts.

"Hahaha! Kill them!" Michelle roared behind him, completely ignoring the enemy so close at hand.

Moreover, he did not notice that several of the soldiers around him fell down with arrows in their faces, and with the entanglement of other barbarians, there were not many guards around him.

Michelle's guards were powerful, but those barbarians were not ordinary people. The archer who was cleaning up the soldiers also noticed the strength of the heavy armored knight, and immediately took out a heavy arrow with a unique shape.

The arrow was thicker and longer, but the arrowhead was no longer made of iron, but some kind of sharp animal tooth, with strange runes painted on it, giving off a weird feeling.

The archer's arm that pulls the bow is coiled with snake-shaped war patterns. As the muscles are agitated, it looks like a snake is squirming. Just by pulling the bow string as thick as the little finger, you can hear a "嘘嘘嘘" sound. , that is the furious power that is accumulating and waiting to explode.

"Hiss!" As he let go, the sound of the arrow tearing through the air was actually the hissing of some kind of snake.

If you have a strong inspiration, you may be able to see the arrow flowing with extraordinary power and being stimulated at the moment of shooting, and a faint snake-like shadow can be seen emerging.

Armor-piercing arrow!

As for being shot out more like a spear than an arrow, the heavily armored knight seemed to feel something, but instead of avoiding it, he chose to go forward and try to kill it with a weapon, because the archer was very chicken-thief and aimed at the rice. Sher.

In this regard, the heavily armored knight could only abandon the barbarian entanglements and choose to protect Michelle.

It would be fine if he dealt with ordinary enemies, but these barbarians are ruthless people, and no one who doesn't have some ruthless skills would be embarrassed to hang out.

A barbarian opened his mouth and screamed, a sound so harsh that it exceeded human limits, and directly controlled the heavy armored knight.

With a "bang" sound, the armor-piercing heavy arrow directly penetrated the thick armor and inserted into it. The powerful kinetic energy made the knight's body shake uncontrollably.

The arrow just now was also a waste for the archer, and the snake-shaped war pattern on the arm looked dim without the aura just now.

But that was not his focus. His arrows were all poisonous. He originally thought that the knight would fall, but why didn't he react?

"Be careful! Don't go up!"

He noticed something was wrong and shouted from behind, but these barbarians were not from the same tribe, and they were related to supplies, so there were many people trying to grab their heads.

If he captures this big fish, he can get more supplies.

The heavily armored knight soon regained his balance. Facing the barbarians who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, they raised their hands to poke out. The spikes on the top of the war hammer penetrated the fastest barbarian without any pause. The metal armor was only slightly in front of the heavy weapon. stop.

Greed led him to death...

But when the heavily armored knight was held back, the dozen or so soldiers were also killed by the remaining barbarian mercenaries. Everyone's target also turned to Michelle, who was obviously easier to bully, and they were about to rush forward.

But at this time, those barbarians felt a cold aura spreading out for no reason, and their skin was uncontrollable, with hairs standing on end.

But what was even more terrifying was yet to come. A barbarian suddenly noticed something on his foot. When he looked down, he saw that a soldier who should have died just now had grabbed his ankle.

屮! Not dead yet?

This barbarian didn't care about so many kicks to break away from the weak shackles. He instinctively and subconsciously distanced himself, and then pierced his back with a spear from his backhand.

snort! Let’s see if you die!

But when he pulled out the spear, instead of dying, the soldier staggered to his feet again, even though the wound on his body was still bleeding.

impossible! I clearly killed him just now!

This scene not only appeared on his side, but all the soldiers who were killed just now broke free from the shackles of death. Not to mention the severed hands and feet, even those whose heads were shot through and there was an arrow stuck in their faces were all re-created. stand up.

This scene immediately stunned the barbarian mercenaries.

The archer who had just recovered not far away also noticed this scene. His rich experience as a mercenary in the empire made him realize something. His sharp eyes instantly locked on a person who was ignored under the cover of black robe...
