Chapter 339: Hold Your Ground, We'll Launch a Surprise Attack

The towns and castles being breached by the orc elite troops didn't come as too much of a surprise to Matthew.

The combat effectiveness of the elite orc soldiers was not the slightest bit lacking.

The average Challenge Level of the elite orc soldiers Matthew had just encountered had already reached 6+!

This made them stronger than the vast majority of the regular soldiers of the Nesserite Empire.

The nobles of the Karl Plains who had lived in peace for a long time had even weaker notions about training soldiers and forming teams than the nobles of Blood Moon City.

At least the latter had to open up ruins, clear out jackalweres, kobolds, merfolk, etc., and thereby inadvertently trained their soldiers.

The highly developed Karl Plains had long been away from many dangers and troubles.

For most of the soldiers, their duty was merely to clean up the inexhaustible kobolds and merfolk.

At most, they would also take on a side job as thugs who bullied civilians.
