Chapter 117 Witchcraft Showdown
Chapter 117 Witchcraft Showdown
At night, the moon rises slowly.
But as if the moon couldn't bear to see the miserable situation below, it hid behind the clouds again, and plunged the land into endless darkness.
On the city wall of Menghua Town.
"The loss is too great"
Thanos looked at the casualty report in his hand, feeling a sense of solemnity in his heart.
The loss of a thousand regular troops was not large, with only 57 casualties among the soldiers and only 87 losses among the skeleton soldiers.
However, more than 200 militiamen who were temporarily recruited died, and more than 300 rented skeletons were also lost.
But there is no way.
There are more than 1000 militiamen, compared to a population of only more than 3000, it is considered that the whole people are soldiers.
Anyone who can hold a weapon is on.
That fighting power is naturally very touching.
And skeletons were not originally produced for war, and even ordinary people were inferior at that time.
If it weren't for the advantages of having no morale and physical limitations, it would be impossible for Thanos to pull these skeletons to defend the city.
Wilkin nodded beside him, and said in agreement: "Yes, these militiamen are just doing simple drills, and some even don't even have drills, and they die the fastest when they go to the battlefield."
Menghua Town and Zixi Town are small towns close to the aborigines, and commoners have the habit of practicing.
As for the effect, just look at the results.
It can only be said that talking is better than nothing.
Malika said at this time: "My lord, according to estimates, the loss of the indigenous people is about seven or eight hundred."
Because many of the enemy's corpses were destroyed, and many fell outside the city walls, the number of statistics can only be approximated.
Thanos nodded and put down the report in his hand.
"Sumante did a good job this time, but our situation is still not optimistic. The enemy's number is at least , and we don't know if there is any support.
So I have a plan"
As Thanos slowly spoke out the plan, Malika and Wilkin both showed serious expressions and nodded from time to time.
The sun began to rise slowly the next day.
Around Menghua Town, the aborigines began to cook slowly.
For a moment, the peaceful land seemed to be revived.
At this moment, Wilhelm frowned as he looked at the several indigenous leaders in front of him.
"My lord wizard, we came out in a hurry this time, and we only have three days' worth of food."
"Yeah, and the logistical supplies probably won't come in a while."
"I also hope that the adults will take action and take down the town in front of me as soon as possible."
Regarding the persuasion of these indigenous leaders, he certainly knew what was going on.
Because these aborigines are controlled by the wizard of the giant snake tower, he paid a lot of money to come to assist him this time.
Therefore, these natives did not attack Menghua Town sincerely, and naturally wanted to reduce the loss of their tribe.
And letting him make a move is the best way to reduce losses.
But if that Mary doesn't make a move, if he consumes too much mana, what will he do to deal with that woman then.
But looking at the appearance of the aboriginal leaders in front of him, he knew that if he didn't take action, they wouldn't be able to attack the city.
So after thinking about it, he said, "The direction is good. I will definitely make a move today. You don't need to build ladders anymore. I will just tear down a city wall."
Hearing this, the indigenous leader immediately nodded with a smile on his face.
"Hiss directly tear the city wall!"
"Haha, the respected lord wizard is mighty."
"Then we won't disturb your lord's rest."
After getting a satisfactory answer, the indigenous leaders left one after another.
Seeing this, Wilhelm could only shake his head, and then continued to meditate.
As the sun rose slowly, the time soon came to around ten o'clock in the morning.
At this time, all the aborigines finished their breakfast, took up their weapons, and gathered around Menghua Town.
And on the city walls.
Thanos looked at these natives coldly at this time.
But compared to yesterday's worries, his eyes are now cold, as if looking at a dead person.
At this time, Wilkin came to him and said in a low voice: "My lord, everything is ready, just wait for your order."
Thanos nodded without speaking.
Seeing this, Wilkin naturally went down wisely to arrange the task of defending the city.
After a while, Marika also came over.
"My lord, the troops in the north of the city are ready."
At this time, Thanos finally reacted a bit.
"That's right, arrange for people, women and children to retreat first."
Although she didn't say how the old man was doing, Marika naturally understood the meaning.
So she nodded, and she left.
"Woooo."
After a while, the horn sounded outside.
The natives began to approach slowly.
Mary came to Thanos immediately after hearing the horn.
"How's the situation?"
Thanos looked at the physically and mentally exhausted woman in front of him, and said lightly: "I already have a plan, but you may need your cooperation to stop the enemy."
Upon hearing this, Mary nodded without hesitation.
"Don't worry, I won't leave you alone. After all, you were hunted down to save me."
At this time, she still didn't know the grievances between Thanos and the Hazayang family, and thought that the natives summoned by these griffin cavalry came for Mance, so she was full of guilt.
Thanos naturally didn't mean to explain, but just said tacitly: "That troubles you."
As soon as the words fell, the enemy stopped advancing 200 meters away from the city wall.
Then I saw Wilhelm riding a mount, slowly coming to the front line.
Seeing this, Thanos prepared in his heart, the other party couldn't help but want to attack.
"It seems that the plan can be implemented today."
Originally, he wanted to defend Menghua Town for a few more days to consume as much of the enemy's troops as possible.
But since Wilhelm was about to make a move, he couldn't hold it.
In other words, I don't want to keep it anymore.
After a while, Wilhelm raised his staff, and the magic power in his body began to surge.
"The Crack of the Earth!"
As the words fell, soon there was a "rumbling" sound on the ground, and then a small crack appeared.
And this rift is constantly spreading to Menghua Town, and the more it spreads, the bigger the rift will be.
After a while, it was only 100 meters away from Menghua Town, and the width of the crack reached five meters.
Seeing this, Thanos immediately recruited his men.
"Go and notify Malika and Wilkin, and prepare to evacuate at any time!"
The men nodded and immediately left the city wall.
But Mary, who was beside Thanos, raised her staff at this time.
"Frozen thousands of miles!"
As her magic power surged, a white light shot towards the ground outside the city wall soon.
In the next second, the ground began to freeze, and a block of ice appeared.
And after the broken ground arrived here, it was a bit hard to tear apart because of the ice on the ground.
But Wilhelm obviously had expected it long ago, so he immediately cast a new witchcraft, and it was a compound witchcraft.
"Magnetic field disorder!"
"Earth Spirit!"
"The sky is falling apart!"
