Lion town stabilized the situation with the help of the Ancient Protectors . The greatest role of the Ancient Protectors wasn’t their huge bodies or attack strength but their stone throwing ability . The Ancient Protectors were much powerful that Demolishers or catapults when it came to throwing stones . The Ancient Protectors could even use the huge stones to attack air units .
Xiao Yu had used workers to bring a lot of stones before the war so that they had enough supply of huge stones for ancient protectors and demolishers .
Now, 50 Demolishers and 5 Ancient Protectors were able to suppress countless bandits .
The bandits had almost lost 40,000 people . Although they had more than 100 . 000 people but it was a big number . Nevertheless, it was still within the red line of Subaru . His aim was to swallow all the bandit groups so he made sure that those bandit groups lost a lot of people while his own losses were below 20% . The situation would be completely different when they went back to the Eagle Camp .
In addition, he had secretly assassinated bandit leaders so that it would be much easier to swallow those groups .
However, there was a big problem now . At the beginning he thought that Lion town was weak . He believed that he would be able to get rid of Lion town very easily after bringing all the bandits under his control . Now, it seemed that it would be very difficult to beat Lion town after integrating all the bandits .
As a result, Subaru had to re-consider his plans regarding attack strategy . He had to come up with another strategy to greatly weaken Lion town before giving the fatal blow . However, the main question was that would he be able to get rid of Lion town if he controlled all the bandits?
The attacks continued for the next few days . Subaru didn’t plan to make deployment of fresh troops back from the Eagle camp as he had yet to consider his personal interests . The problem was that he wasn’t aware that Subaru was giving opportunity to Xiao Yu to produce new warriors .
Xiao Yu was already using shamans as long-range support to the troops . Shamans were able to use lightning bolts at this point but the attacks were very powerful when 300 of them used at the same time . Moreover, to some extent the shamans were taking off the pressure from the elf archers .
Shaman’s could use Lightning Shield, Bloodlust and Purge skills . However, their level was low so they were only able to use Lightning Bolt skill .
The witch doctors were integrated into the troops too . Their attacks were low but they were excellent in treating the grunts and orc warriors . The life of orcs and grunts were more secure because of simple treatment from witch doctors and healing potions .
The ordinary orcs burst in excitement when they saw witch doctors and shamans . They saw the revival of orcs that were almost extinct in last few milleniums . There were scarce number of shamans and witch doctors in the real world .
There were 1000 batriders in the orc base which have yet to come out to the battle . Xiao Yu knew that the first large-scale use of air units would cause a huge panic and bring down the morale of the bandits . But after a few times the enemy would be used to such attacks . That’s why he had to use batriders as a final blow in order to wipe out the enemies without difficulty .
Moreover, Raiders were still in the orc base too . He would make use of them in the final battle . They would be like wind as they would take the lives of the bandits .
Xiao Yu had lost already 20 Kodo beasts in the battlefield . However, they were great encouragement to the orcs during the battle .
Use of Kodo beasts, totems and battle roars of the heroes almost doubled the strength of the orc warriors . Originally, the strength of the grunts were already extreme . Now, they almost reached the strength of a second-rank warriors . What does it mean to have 1000 grunts who had the strength of a second-rank warrior?
The corpses of the bandits were stacked around the town .
Cairne had reached level 11 . Xiao Yu gave him T1 armor set . Cairne was like a fortress that charged on constantly . He could charge into an enemy battalion without a thought .
In fact, Cairne was guarding the gates with Grom and Two Ancient Protectors at the beginning . However, he would charge by using his Shock Wave and War Stomp skill . Then he would swing his huge axe to kill the enemies . Cairne would retreat back to Ancient Protectors side to resist the enemies when the enemy outnumbered him .
Cairne was more bloody and violent in comparison to Grom’s fighting style .
Cairne had another 3 skills which could be learned after he reached level 10 .
Cleave (Up to level 3) . Tauren Chieftain would horizontally swing his weapon to a row of enemies . The damage would increase by 20% on each level .
Intercept (up to level 2) . Tauren Chieftain would rapidly charge at enemy . The skill would cause dizziness and injury to the enemy . The range and damage would increase by 20% on each level upgrade .
Weapon Specialization (up to level 5) . The damage and flexibility of the Tauren Chieftain’s weapon attacks enhance by 20% on each level upgrade .
The skills of the Tauren Chieftain were close-combat attacks .
Now, the skills learned by the Cairne were: Shock Wave ( level 3), War Stomp (3), fBattle Roar (level 3), Intercept (level 1), Cleave (level 1) . … …
Xiao Yu would occasionally disguise as bandit and get into the enemy camp . He would find Lightning Bao and warn him regarding Subaru . He told him many times not to personally fight in the battle . Otherwise, Subaru may take the advantage to kill him .
Bao told him that several bandit leaders had died in the battlefield . Moreover, no one knew about the specifics of their deaths .
Bao had a bandit in his group who was good at autopsy . Bao had secretly told him to check one of the corpses . The result was that the bandit leader was killed from back while his body was made so that it seemed as if he was attacked from front .
Xiao Yu knew that if he gave Subaru the time then he would sooner or later swallow all the bandit groups . It was an unfavorable situation for him so Xiao Yu was interested in these bandit leaders to stay alive . Xiao Yu still had opportunity to win as long as Subaru didn’t swallow all the groups into one .
It could be said that Xiao Yu and Subaru were playing their own games . Subaru was doing it in the daylight while Xiao Yu was acting in the shadows of the darkness .
Bao began to warn leaders close to him about the result of the battles and told them to stay away from the battlefield . At the same time, Bao began to spread rumors that Subaru was deliberately killing the bandit leaders in the battlefield .
The strength of rumors was huge . The recent deaths of the leaders made it so that these rumors spread east and west . Subaru was annoyed when he the rumors reached his ears . How could people know about his secret actions?
Another half a month passed . Subaru still made bandits to attack on daily basis . The strength were exhausted from both sides which was to his best interests . However, almost half of the bandits were killed .
Subaru didn’t mind the numbers as he believed that Xiao Yu’s strength was depleting too . He certainly had to go for losses if he wanted to get Lion town . He could bring back his elite troops afterwards to demolish the Lion town in one go .
In fact, Subaru’s calculations were wrong . A lot of soldiers died from Lion town . But most of them were newly recruited soldiers . The warriors summoned from the game system were still intact . The orcs were blessed with totems and other buffs while witch doctors treated them . It reduced the mortality rate . Elves were in the back so they weren’t injured or wounded . The footmen used shields and their defense was tough . Their rate of death was low too .
Moreover, the bandits would cut the heads of other dead bandits and bring them back to the camp . Subaru’s statistics had a flow because of this . Subaru was strict about his rules that no one should bring the heads of other bandits for rewards . But there were many bandits who took the risk to get the money .
Xiao Yu was also thinking about final counterattack as he pondered about the situation . He knew that if he relied on Lion town’s strength then he was courting death by such a thought . However, he had 1000 air units now and the situation was completely different . This people haven’t seen the strength of air attacks so they didn’t know what was going to happen .
