World of Warcraft: Foreign Realm Domination Chapter 46

Chapter 46

Grunts forced the infantry out of the town by driving them out with their brute strength. The strength of the grunts was reflected in this situation once more. The grunts at the gates were specially selected by Xiao Yu. He had chosen all the grunts that had reached level 4. A grunt which had reached level 4 could cope up with five and six human soldiers at the same time as long as it wasn’t surrounded into a formation.

Argh~~

The furious roars of the grunts filled the town gates. The enemy soldiers rushed in constantly as they wanted to kill the grunts and enter the town.

Xiao Yu gestured towards the archmage.

“Cone of the Cold! Outside the gates!” Xiao Yu ordered the archmage which had just restored his mana. The mana potions that Xiao Yu gave to archmage were very slow. It would take around four or five minutes for the depleted mana to be restored. Xiao Yu understood that the recovery rate of the mana would be much rapid after he was able to produce high-level mana potions.

Archmage smiled and nodded. He began to chant a spell and a large ice cone appeared outside the town gates. The icicles began to sprinkle down the place. The light infantrymen faced a storm of icicles. Most of the howled miserably before their death.

Last time, Xiao Yu used 50 elf archers to support the grunts to hold the town gates. However, in this battle he had chose archmage to support the grunts. The scale of the battle was too large. That’s why if he had chosen elves then they had to look out from the walls to decimate the enemies at the gates. But archmage didn’t have to get close to the edge of the walls. He could just chant a spell and direct its appearance over the outside of the gates. Moreover, the amount of soldiers dying at the archmage’s hands was much more than if he used elves.

“First group! Ready! Shoot! Second group! Ready! Shoot!” Xiao Yu saw that Tyrande had found another enemy mage so he began to command riflemen to kill the mage.

Mages couldn’t protect themselves from the continuous bullets shot by the riflemen.

Puchi~… Ah~

A long spear penetrated the body of a soldier recruited by the Captain Hui. The ballista used by the enemy was throwing long spears. The accuracy wasn’t good but the shots were lethal. At the same time, five catapults of the enemy began to shoot large rocks at the walls.

However, the efficiency of the enemy catapults weren’t as good as ballistas. They were using large rocks so they could throw only a rock at a time. Xiao Yu instead was using smaller rocks to throw 7 or 8 pieces at a time which scattered and inflicted more damage.

There were advantages to using large rocks and small rocks depending on the situation. Large rocks could smash through and make a gap in the walls but the accuracy of such shots was very low.

“First group of Demolishers aim at the first ballista at the left side! Ready! Shoot!” Xiao Yu quickly estimated the threat of ballistas and catapults and decided to deal with ballistas first.

His warriors and Captain Hui’s soldiers were able to escape large rocks as they could determine the trajectory of it. However, the spears from the ballistas were much more faster, accurate and powerful. Even the archmage would be killed if he was shot. Xiao Yu didn’t want to face such a situation so he decided to deal with ballistas then with the catapults.

After four consecutive shots Xiao Yu was able to destroy scattered ballistas of the enemy. Although they launched and threw spear several times before he was successful but fortunately there wasn’t much of a damage.

A spear had penetrated the chest of a grunt but it was still able to wave his giant axe and continue to battle. Xiao Yu immediately ordered two grunts to get that grunt back and pulled out the spear. He used the healing potion to deal with the wound. Xiao Yu had acc.u.mulated a lot of potions but the consumption rate was amazingly fast in the battle.

However, he wasn’t stingy with the potions and used them to save everyone he could. After destroying the ballistas Xiao Yu used ten Demolishers and 4 Glaive Throwers to aim at the catapults of the enemy. It didn’t take long before they were able to accomplish this task.

The only threat that remained were warriors and the magicians of the enemy after the destruction of catapults and ballistas. However, the main threat that Xiao Yu was facing the number advantage of the enemy.

The battle at the gates had turned tragic. Enemy soldiers rushed in to try to breakthrough. However, Grom was able to lead the grunts to push back the enemy each time.

It wasn’t just light infantry but heavy infantry involved in the battle at the gates. Because of their armor they couldn’t climb the wall so the only option was to attack through the gates. The giant axes of the grunts were sharp but they couldn’t easily tear through the armor of the heavy infantry. However, it didn’t matter as Xiao Yu had taught them few ways to efficiently deal with the heavy infantry.

First method shown by Xiao Yu was to wave the axe sideways at the head of the heavy infantry. Because of the huge strength of the grunts the heads of the heavy infantrymen were chopped or smashed even though they used helmets. Xiao Yu had shown second method in case the grunts weren’t able to attack the heads of the heavy infantry. It was to use their big feet to kick the knees of the heavy infantrymen. Their knees were protected by thin metal but neither armor nor knee joints could withstand the impact of a grunt harshly kicking off.

The facts proved that Xiao Yu’s approach was very effective and feasible against the heavy infantry. By kicking on their knees the grunts were able to deal with heavy infantry much easier than the light infantry.

Light infantrymen could dodge and sway to the sides in comparison to the heavy infantry. The heavy infantry was powerful against ordinary human soldiers as humans couldn’t penetrate through their armor. But grunts weren’t affected in such a skirmish battle.

Buzz~

Xiao Yu saw that the archmage reached level 9. He immediately added skill point to the Water Elemental Summoning skill.

In an instant, two water elementals appeared next to the archmage. They began to help archmage to deal with the enemy soldiers.

Grom was constantly using whirlwind skill to chop the enemies and he also reach level 11. Xao Yu added skill point to the whirlwind skill and it reached level 2.

The strength of the whirlwind increased by 100% on level 2.

Chop~ Chop~

Grom launched the whirlwind skill once more as it smashed into the enemy soldiers. Strong battle energy covered his body and sword as he continued to harvest life as if he was chopping down wheat.

Tyrande had also reached level 11. Xiao Yu added a skill point to Trueshot aura. The role of the trueshot aura was great in the battlefield. It didn’t just promote the strength of the wielder of the skill but entire long-range elf archers.
