164 Cavalry, Accident
The elf arrow regiment was fully assembled and stepped into the battlefield.
It slapped over like a wave.
Powerful spells streaked past their heads and blasted at the hard city wall. The two divisions used the sky as the battlefield. Elemental ripples surged in the sky, sparks flew, and lightning snakes circulated. In this continuous explosion and flash, the elf archers’ expressions did not change as they steadily advanced.
The motley crew in the city was barely prepared.
After seeing this scene, fear continuously spread. That terrifying spell was blocked by the mages, so who would resist the impending elf arrow rain?
“Raise your shields! Raise your shields!”
The veterans ran back and forth. The pressure on them was only great but not small. The morale of these militias had already completely collapsed. Perhaps a moment later, there would be a large-scale defeat or even a mutiny. They could only repeat words they did not believe, “The city wall is the safest! If you turn around and escape now, you’ll be shot to death by the rain of arrows! You’ll be killed by the Supervisor Squad! Even your family will be implicated, so you can’t escape!”
“Hold on! Hold on! When the reinforcements arrive, you can retreat from the city wall! You don’t have to fight. As long as you stay here and hold your shields, don’t be shot to death! Hold your belligerent shields!”
The roars of these soldiers echoed on the city wall.
Hong San was wrapping the militiamen in wounds one after another. The faces of the corpses also looked over and read their names one by one. His state was very wrong.
Below the city was the attacking elf army. The elf arrow formation would cooperate with the mages to carry out the second round of long-range attacks, and the third wave of attacks by the elf army would definitely be on the way. The even more terrifying bloody battle was still ahead.
On the city wall was only a motley crew who had been beaten up.
The only Hong San he could trust had also fallen into such a strange state.
Kang De stood on the city wall and felt the wind that assaulted his face. The wind smelled of blood and death. Dazzling magic light continuously exploded above the city. Rays of death intertwined in the air and he could hear the low sobs of his soldiers. This was war. Lives withered like grass.
Now, he was alone.
Hong San suddenly jumped up as if he had gone crazy. He grabbed the scar-faced veteran and pressed him against the wall. He roared in a low voice, like a wolf king who had lost many clansmen.
“Where are the archers? Where are the projection troops in the city?! Where’s the city defense army?! Why aren’t they here?!”
He asked with a ferocious expression.
The scar-faced veteran looked at him coldly and said in a cold tone, “I don’t know.”
Hong San was furious. He raised his hand and was about to slap down when the other party was actually not afraid at all. He said calmly, “You know better than me how many people will die from this palm.”
Kang De came to Hong San’s side. What was going on?
Hong San turned to look at him with red eyes and said sternly, “This is their…”
Before he could finish speaking, someone in the city roared, “Raise your shields!”
There was a buzzing sound under the city. It was the low sound of thousands of bows trembling together. Kang De turned around and saw a black cloud rising outside the city and rushing towards the city wall like a swarm of locusts!
He pulled Hong San and hid behind the wall with him. He raised his large shield to protect himself. The scar-faced veteran also raised his shield and bowed to hide in another area. A solid shield was propped up on the city wall, like the scales of a fish. Everyone hid under the shield. Some looked at each other, some sobbed softly, and most people waited in a daze.
After a few breaths, the rain fell like a waterfall.
Kang De felt his left hand, which was holding the shield, sink. Amidst one muffled sound after another, the dense impact pressed down. He focused on controlling the elements and outlined the pattern of the iron wall defense. He felt the shield pop. The elves’ arrows seemed to be endless—d*mn, they could even shoot in segments!
Kang De looked at the city wall. There were already screams.
The elf bow was strong and the arrows were sharp. After this round, there were always people who were shot until their shields deviated and were shot in the body. In fact, the entire shield was directly shattered by the continuous rain of arrows and became a live target. In their sorrow, the others curled up under the shields and trembled, not daring to move.
In war, bows and arrows were actually deterrent weapons.
Everyone could only raise their shields to resist this attack and did not dare to move. The continuous impact on the shields indirectly increased the psychological pressure and fear of the unknown.
However, people could only be passively beaten up.
This was the case for the militia and the experienced veterans.
Kang De was the same.
F*ck.
Kang De raised his shield and resisted the attack. His shield had been strengthened by elements and was far sturdier than the others, so the pressure was not great, but he still had to squat here and be passively beaten.
Previously, he had been bombarded by a round of spells and could only hug his head and squat to defend himself. Under the suppression of this round of arrows, he still had to raise his shield and be shot. The first feeling of war in his life was… aggrieved.
Even if he had already experienced two massacres, battle and war were two different things.
In this war, he was only a small individual. The elf army carried out a surprise attack tactic and pressed over one after another. They wanted to take down Valentine City in one go and destroy all the resistance in the city with the momentum of the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. They did not even know that there was a person called Kang De in the city.
He did not care.
However, this was war.
Even if he was mentally prepared for this, he only knew the feeling when he really faced it.
On the other hand, the scar-faced veteran roared, “Worthless elves, are you massaging me?!”
He found joy in his misery, but he could mobilize his emotions.
The veterans laughed loudly and dirty words sounded.
Kang De also cursed, “Remember this group of sharp ears! This matter is not over today. I’ll teach them a lesson later! There’ll be a time when they cry!”
He made up his mind. D*mn, at most, he would return to Earth and cause trouble later!
When the scar-faced veteran heard this, he laughed at him, “Yes, that’s right. Now that the elves are hitting us, we’ll hit them sooner or later!”
Kang De said fiercely, “It can’t be far! D*mn, even my mother didn’t hit me like this!”
The scar-faced veteran smiled even more happily, “Not far? Kid, you’re talking big. If you can really make the elves cry, I really want to go with you to take a look. You…”
In the next moment, Kang De saw the old soldier who was holding his shield and talking to him suddenly tremble. Blazing flames exploded on the other party’s shield. Immediately, the shield shattered, and flames swept. The hot metal fragments and sharp fragments swept into half of the scar-faced soldier and sent him flying.
Someone shouted, “Captain!”
Kang De was first stunned, then he subconsciously ran towards him. The scar-faced veteran seemed to have sensed something and used his last strength to turn his head to look at him. Half of his face was already bloody.
He tried his best to say, “Don’t… don’t move…”
In the next moment, a few arrows flew down from the air and struck his body.
Kang De’s pupils dilated.
One of them froze the other party’s corpse.
It was an enchanted arrow.
The Elven Arrow Regiment used enchanted arrows—and they were mixed in with ordinary arrows and used immediately!
Soon, the city wall guards also discovered this. The shields they were issued could block most of the elves’ arrows, but many enchanted arrows were not among them! Their fear increased several times out of thin air because no one knew if the next arrow to shoot would be a powerful enchanted arrow!
“F*ck!”
Kang De grabbed Hong San and shouted, “There’s no way to fight this battle!”
Hong San turned around and looked at Kang De in a daze as if he did not understand.
“…D*mn, aren’t you quite afraid of death?!” Facing his gaze, Kang De felt a little embarrassed and angry. He said in a low voice, “If we can’t defend it later, we’ll run! As long as there’s life, there’s hope. Run now and kill the entire elf family later—you know that I’m good at this!”
Hong San looked at him steadily and suddenly said, “Master, help me take revenge too.”
Kang De slapped him. “Are you worthy?!”

His saliva flew everywhere as he said, “I don’t f*cking want to avenge you. Why is it my turn to tell you this? Aren’t you quite good at talking? If you don’t run now, are you waiting to die?”

Hong San did not dodge or cry out in pain after being slapped.
He glanced at the militiamen who were struggling and even wailing under the shield and said softly, “Master, when you were in Glory Sand, did you leave your companions behind to escape alone?”
Kang De said, “Of course not.”
Hong San said, “I won’t either… If they don’t leave, I won’t leave.”
“I think you’ve lost your mind!”
Kang De grabbed his collar and shouted in a low voice, “These people are completely different from the knight and the others! These people acknowledge you as the boss only because they want you to protect them. If you can’t do it, they won’t acknowledge you, just like this morning! Where did your f*cking sense of responsibility and love come from? You don’t have the obligation to protect them at all!”
Hong San pushed Kang De’s hand away and said softly, “It’s the same thing.”
He was about to say something when he suddenly heard a muffled sound across the sky. He looked up and saw a heavy rock flying out of the city and whistling toward the elf army.
A glint flashed through the Cathayan’s eyes. “The warlocks have begun to fight back!”
Huge pellets flew out from the city wall and even everywhere in the city, covering the elf arrow formation.
Some scattered a large number of fist-sized stone balls, and some were mixed with the brilliance of magic. There should be an end to all kinds of ammunition. The elf divine archers outside the city drew their bows and sniped. The mages also joined in to intercept, but the attacks of the war machines still disrupted the attack rhythm of the elf arrow formation and turned the situation around.
Hong San raised his shield and looked outside. He said extremely quickly, “The elves launched a surprise attack. The mages followed the cavalry to launch a surprise attack and set up a spell formation to launch a magic attack. Then, the arrow regiment in the army quickly arrived at the battlefield on the supply tank and carried out the second round of attacks. The infantry who rushed over later should be in the third round, so the elves’ war machinery should be far behind. At the very least, there won’t be a chance to use it today…”
Kang De asked, “So?”
Hong San replied, “Therefore, it depends on how much Mayor Nick has prepared for this war. The key to defending the city today is the war machinery in the city. This is our only advantage, especially after the Elven Infantry Regiment arrives… The war machinery is the greatest threat to the infantry formation!”
Kang De said thoughtfully, “Therefore, the elves probably want to test the strength and number of war machines in the city this round. Then, the enemy mages will have to change their target.”
As expected, the elf arrow regiment still maintained the suppression of the arrows on the city wall, but the spells that attacked and bombarded gradually stopped. The experienced spellcasters determined the general location of the war machinery in the city through the trajectory. Immediately, a light flashed, and a fatal spell stream streaked through the sky.
The mages in the city immediately reacted and resisted the attacks of the elves.
However, they could only do this much.
The quantity and quality of spellcasters were inferior to the enemy, so they did not have the initiative and could only passively intercept and defend. This was because they had already used all their strength to defend the other party’s attack, so how could they counterattack?
However, the firepower and interception defense surrounding the war machinery was an intense confrontation of the mages’ all-out methods. It had nothing to do with most people. Everyone could only watch the fireworks in a daze.
The west wall was the most miserable. There were not even fireworks to be seen and they could only tremble under the rain of arrows. Kang De and Hong San were the bravest as they blocked the arrows and observed the battle.
Hong San looked outside a few times and sighed, “The enemy’s projection army entered the battlefield first. The formation of infantry is probably rushing behind. The elves actually dare to place the archers outside the city to attack. Logically speaking, this is the stupidest tactic. As long as a cavalry rushes out of the city, we can crush this group of archers… However, the elves are really too powerful, so conventional tactics are meaningless.”
“The mages still have the strength to spare, and the cavalry troops protecting the mages are also ready, let alone these archers. They’re an elite arrow regiment of the Dragon Fang Army. With the third-rate cavalry gathered in the city, even if they launch a surprise attack, half of them will probably be shot to death by the elf arrow regiment halfway. Then, they’ll pull out their two-handed swords and slash the other half to death…”
“Elves… are really too powerful.”
There was despair in his tone. “There’s… no hope in this battle.”
Kang De said, “Therefore, we have to leave… There’s hope in the future. Believe me.”
Hong San said calmly, “I naturally believe you, but it doesn’t matter if a person like me escapes. As for you, you shouldn’t have been involved in this war. It’s too early…”
Then, he heard Kang De say, “Wait, this…”
Hong San continued, “I know you want to scold me, but… but I don’t know how… it’s just that… it’s just… Sigh, I don’t know what to say.”
Kang De said, “…Wait.”
Hong San sighed, “There’s no need to persuade me. I know it best. I…”
“Hey!”
Kang De punched him out of his self-pity. He pointed outside the city and asked Hong San, “I only want to say that although the elves are very, very strong, this operation is a little too much, right?”
Hong San stuck his head out and saw dust rising everywhere. A portion of the cavalry protecting the mage had already urged their reins and rushed towards the city wall.
Kang De was puzzled, “It’s fine if their archery brother can fight against third-rate cavalry—could it be that their cavalry can directly jump into the city??”
Hong San’s face suddenly turned pale.
He shouted, “Not good! The third round of attacks is not infantry… but cavalry!”
Kang De still wanted to ask, but the next moment, he understood. As the elf cavalry approached with a bang, the elf mages immediately stopped bombarding the war machinery in the city. They cast spells in unison. A khaki light rose from the array and fell towards the empty space in front of the city wall like a rain of light!
The mages of Valentine City also displayed the decisiveness and reaction ability they deserved. Intercept and Dispel spells quickly surged, but the elf mages were stronger than humans!
Many balls of light broke through the interception and fell to the ground. Then, the ground churned and turned, swimming and reshaping. Earth slopes rose from the ground and stretched in the direction of the city wall. They were flat and thick enough to make the cavalry relax!
The mages in the city fired dispersal spells without caring about their lives. The extension of the soil slope was dispersed. However, in the next moment, the elf mages launched a huge attack. Powerful spells splashed at the city wall guards, war machines, and even the buildings in the city, causing the city defense mages to panic!
In a section of the city wall that the mages did not have the time to care about, a soil slope stretched up and was built on the city wall.
The rushing elf cavalry rushed up the slope.
War was first and foremost a battle of magic. The powerful side of the mage group could suppress the other side. To the army of the weaker side in magic, the difference in spellcasting strength had to be filled with the lives of soldiers.
The tall battle deer jumped up vigorously and rushed up the slope.
The skilled cavalry followed closely.
The veterans shouted at the top of their lungs and urged the soldiers to raise their spears. However, every time the elves’ surprise attack was unexpected by the other party, how could the motley crew, who had already lost their morale from two long-range attacks, face the stronger and more deterrent cavalry? Fear had already spread.
The veterans roared and cursed. In the end, they kicked the militia aside and roared as they gathered together. They stood side by side and held their spears. Their eyes were crazy as they waited solemnly.
However, they already knew their outcome.
The elves who were about to rush forward also saw the result.
This was because half of the arrow regiment soldiers had already thrown away their bows and quivers. They pulled out their two-handed swords and ran wildly in the direction of the slope. Once the cavalry rushed to the city wall and crushed the defenders to stabilize themselves, the arrow regiment soldiers who followed could take the opportunity to expand their victory. Even the mages had to come up.
Once the elves’ spellcasters climbed to the top of the wall… everything would be over.
The veterans roared.
The leading elf cavalry held his spear and revealed a cruel smile. He was about to rush to the top of the wall and establish the greatest contribution to this siege.
However, in the next moment, he saw a human appear on the city wall and face him.
Humans were small and stupid, but sometimes there was no lack of courage… However, pure courage was meaningless.
He raised his spear and planned to pierce the other party’s body in one go, but he saw the black-haired human’s left eye shining with a terrifying golden light.
That person stretched out his hand and pressed down on the soil slope extended by the rise of spells.
In the next moment, the cavalry suddenly felt their bodies sink. The mount missed a step and fell towards the city.
In an instant, the neither long nor short soil slope disintegrated into nothingness. The cavalrymen running on it fell one after another and squeezed together. They fell and knelt down. The cries and screams of the mounts sounded endlessly and collided with the cavalry behind who could not stop in time. A huge traffic accident happened.
Hong San carried a large box out of the tower. Kang De opened it and took out the two gas tanks inside. He exerted strength in his arms and swung them at the cavalry below, then pulled out two guns from his waist.

The mages launched a sneak attack, the arrow regiment attacked, and the cavalry raided. They determined the strength of the enemy’s resistance, the combat strength of the enemy’s spellcasters, and the number of war machines. They were guided by the situation and deceived by tactics as they advanced layer by layer. Everything that happened in this siege was within the calculations and expectations of the elves. There were no accidents.
Until now.
Kang De pulled the trigger.
Explosions, flames, and impact sent flesh and blood flying.
