Chapter 11: Victor and Alice Awaken Their Auras

"Snoring".

The wild boar herd moved towards the city wall.

There are excavated trenches outside the stone city walls.

The wild boars lowered their heads, dug up the soil, and began to fill in the trench.

"attack."

The commander on the city wall is Rhea.

Lin Chuan deployed 20 archers on the city wall and handed them over to Lei Ya for command.

It has the amplification of the powerful aura.

Archers are not weak in damage.

At night, the number of monsters in the forbidden area will increase.

The arrow struck the wild boar, but was blocked by its thick outer layer of mud armor.

Only a few archers and Raya's arrows could break through the defenses.

The wild boars' counterattack against the city wall did not cause much damage.

They began to recklessly amass troops for bulldozing.

"Your Lordship"

"There are too many wild boars."

"Raya and his few companions alone cannot stop the wild boar herd."

"Once the moat is filled in, our city walls will be in danger."

Wild boars are covered in thick mud armor and are fearless in the face of death.

The repeated impacts on the stone city wall risked causing it to collapse.

Arthur was very worried about this.

He stepped forward and volunteered to lead the sword-and-shield infantry into the attack.

"No need to rush."

Lin Chuan said calmly.

"Our arrow towers haven't even begun to fight back yet."

At this moment, the wild boars outside the city walls leveled part of the moat and entered the attack range of the arrow towers.

The Wolf Fang Arrow Tower was the first to launch an attack.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Sharp, armor-piercing wolf-tooth arrows flew out.

Easily tear through the wild boar's mud armor defenses.

The thick arrow pinned the wild boar to the ground, killing it instantly.

Next up are the repeating crossbow towers.

Although it lacks the armor-piercing energy of the Wolf Fang Arrow Tower.

However, the repeating crossbow is quite powerful; a single volley can take the lives of many wild boars.

Even if they didn't die, they would be severely injured by the thick arrows.

However, the arrow towers don't fire very fast.

There were many wild boars, and one of them died.

Soon another one was added to the list.

The trenches were being leveled at an accelerated pace.

"That's about it."

Lin Chuan saw that the trench had been filled in and looked at Arthur and the militia who had already assembled.

"Open the city gates."

Arthur raised the fine iron sword in his hand.

This was forged after the blacksmith shop obtained the new blueprints.

It has a very strong cutting ability and a considerable armor-piercing capability.

"kill."

A long sword pointed at him.

Arthur, holding the Boar Shield given to him by Lin Chuan, was the first to charge out.

With a single strike of his shield, he knocked a wild boar unconscious.

Then the longsword pierced the wild boar's neck.

The kill was easily accomplished.

The sword-and-shield infantry behind them followed, forming a shield formation to block in front.

The militiamen thrust forward with their long guns.

The attack by the wild boar herd was halted.

The summoned swordsman, wielding a fine iron sword, activated Swift Step and appeared behind the boar herd.

Suddenly activate the Blade Storm skill.

The wild boar herd was thrown into chaos.

Rhea took the opportunity to lead his archers to focus fire.

An archer might not be able to do much damage to a wild boar.

But ten archers aimed at a wild boar.

Gua sha can kill you.

The counterattack went very smoothly.

After losing half their strength, the wild boar herd fled into the darkness.

This is not an escape, but a regrouping and return to prepare for the next round of attacks.

Lin Chuan ordered Liya to lead the local farmers to retrieve the wild boar carcass.

At the same time, a message pops up in the lord system.

"Ding-dong."

"Kill 150 wild boars and gain 3000 experience points."

After the wild boar's carcass decomposed, Lin Chuan gained a lot of experience and food.

"I have enough experience points."

"This time, both Victor and Alice will be able to level up."

Their strength is insufficient, and they cannot charge into battle like heroes such as Raya.

Of course, as mage units, they don't need to charge into battle.

"Ding-dong."

"Victor's level has been increased to LV5, his attributes have increased, and he has gained the skills Fireball Barrage, Fire Elemental Summoning, Mana Surge, and Fire Elemental Shield."

"Alice's level has been increased to LV5, her attributes have increased, and she has gained the skills Light Shield, Holy Light Blessing, Holy Light Disk Spray, and Holy Water Crafting."

Use magic cores to transform them into hero units.

"Ding-dong."

"Victor is promoted to a hero unit, gaining mana attribute, attribute boost, the aura skill Mana Source, and magic apprentice training."

"Alice is promoted to a hero unit, gains magic power, her attributes are improved, she gains the aura skill Divine Healing Aura, and gains monk training."

Both are mage units.

Victor's magic is primarily offensive, focusing on fire magic.

Alice specializes in healing-type holy light spells.

Victor's aura skill increases the mana and stamina regeneration rate of units within a 300-range radius. When activated actively, it instantly restores mana and stamina, and then lasts for a period of time.

Alice's aura skill increases the recovery speed of health and injuries of units within a 300-meter range. Its active effect is also instant recovery, and it also has purification and dispelling effects.

The two work together to create a magical, perpetual motion machine of energy.

The units they each cultivated were also quite distinctive.

Magic apprentices are combat units that have mastered magic, but their training requires magic academy buildings.

The same Alice monks, who possess healing skills, require temple buildings to train.

"It seems we won't need it for the time being."

"However, Alice and Victor are very strong in their own skills."

"Especially Viktor."

"After upgrading, I gained magic points, which greatly enhanced my ability to sustain combat."

"Especially the fire elemental summon, which can summon a level 5 fire elemental warrior."

"It's essentially a hero unit after a class change, immune to physical damage."

"And it can burn surrounding units."

"It's practically the nemesis of all physical units."

"With Victor's skill, we don't have to worry about boars and spiders tonight."

"Beast units primarily deal physical damage, making them naturally vulnerable to elemental creatures."

"Including what's left from the spider nest, there are nearly 5000 experience points."

Next, I trained heroes, choosing Arthur and Raya.

"Ding-dong."

"Arthur's level has been raised to LV8, his attributes have been improved, and he has mastered the new skills of Basic Sword and Shield Infantry Command, Basic Infantry Commander, and Basic Legion Battlefield Command."

"Rayar's level has been raised to LV6, his attributes have been improved, and he has mastered the new skill 'Basic Archer Command'."

In this upgrade, neither hero gained any combat skills.

Rather, it refers to passive skills in military command.

Junior infantry/archer commanders can increase the combat effectiveness of their soldiers.

Battle Commander: This skill allows Arthur to command a number of infantry units. It enables him to form 100 infantry guards, who have a chance to be upgraded to elite units after each battle.

Legion Command allows you to command multiple troop types in battle. This skill increases Arthur's leadership value, increases the number of his guards, and also grants him the ability to command other troop types.

This is especially important for hero units.

In Lin Chuan's view, there would definitely be large-scale battles to come.

It's not just the monsters in the forbidden area, but also other races and civilizations within it.

Any large-scale operation can never be a single-service operation; it must involve multiple branches of the armed forces working together.

Having this skill allows one to lead different types of troops in joint operations, which is of great significance.

In addition, some experience points are retained, and leveling up can heal injuries. In case of injury during battle that cannot be treated in time, leveling up can be used as an emergency measure.

"Arthur".

"Yes, Your Excellency."

"You are in charge of the militia and archers."

"You are in full charge of tonight's battle."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Shortly after Lin Chuan issued the order.

Herds of wild boars have reappeared outside the city.

"Snoring".

The wild boar herd, which had regrouped, had bloodshot eyes.

They're clearly here to fight to the death.

"If I were in command."

"They will definitely choose to leave the city, with the infantry providing fire support with their backs to the city walls."

"Although some militiamen will die."

"But through this kind of battle, a portion of the militia can be selected and promoted to elite units."

This was Lin Chuan's idea; he wouldn't consider the casualties among the militia.

After all, the value of a militia member cannot be compared to that of an elite unit.

Trading ten militiamen for one elite soldier is worthwhile.

"I wonder what Arthur's plan will be."

Lin Chuan was somewhat expectant.

At this time.

Having taken over command, Arthur appeared directly outside the city walls.

Behind him was a large contingent of militia.

The newly promoted Victor stood with Alice in the crowd.
