Chapter 28: Siege, the number of wild monsters exceeds a thousand!

At noon, Demon Blood led 100 Frenzy Blood Spirit Monsters to the forefront, with 100 Magic Energy Spirit Monsters, two-thirds of which were Elite Level and fully armed, following behind.

The remaining 317 untrained and bare-handed Magic Warriors were guarding within the territory, and this time Qin Muye didn't hide in the Mage Tower—he had to join the battle as well.

According to the patterns of monster sieges, 100, 500, this time it must be at least 1000 as a base. Even though there were Frenzy Blood Spirit Monsters, Demon Blood's Magic Value was too low to support such frequent spellcasting.

Indeed, Qin Muye only needed to handle spellcasting.

[Wave 3: Your comprehensive strength: 1st Stage Elite. This time the wild monsters are: 1st Stage Elite Level Skeleton Soldiers×300, 1st Stage Elite Level Skeleton Spearmen×300, 1st Stage Elite Level Skeleton Warriors×300, 1st Stage Elite Level Skeleton Archers×100]

"Damn it, it really is 1000, and it's only the third day. What about the remaining four days? Champion Level troops?"

Even disregarding Champion Level, just a slightly greater number would be tough because if he recruited too many Magic Energy Spirit Monsters, he might not be able to afford that many of them.

However, the possibility of Champion Level isn't high, because while Elite Level can be trained, Champion Level cannot—it requires not just training but also a significant opportunity.

In terms of Attribute, Champion Level wouldn't be much stronger than Elite Level, it simply indicates that the troop has the potential to advance to Hero.

As for Demon Blood, if not for the backlash of Magic Power, he would have been 2nd Order Champion Level, hence his Attribute is naturally much stronger than that of 1st Order troops.

So, if a large number of Champion Level troops appear in the future, it would indicate that the monster siege isn't just from the indigenous Undead Force around him, but spawned by "Lord Era," and that's not good news.

And if Hero units appear later instead of Champion Level troops, it can be confirmed that the surrounding Undead forces have been swept up by "Lord Era."

But now is not the time to consider these. Qin Muye immediately used Evil Curse on the enemy troops, and then cast Bloodthirsty Magic and Attack Acceleration on his own side. Relying on the Apprentice Magic Wand, he gained 2 points of Power, so these three spells could last for 12 minutes. As for buffing and debuffing, both were at 3 points; to achieve stronger effects, corresponding understanding of the Fire System and Qi System was needed, otherwise, they couldn't be increased.

Power could only increase the effects and duration of status Magic, not their potency.

"Activate frenzy, break through to the central army, kill the archers first!" shouted Demon Blood, his body immediately bursting with a large amount of blood-colored aura, followed by the outbreak of the 100 Frenzy Blood Spirit Monsters.

They were the main force this time. Taking on ten at a time wasn't really a big problem; the real issue was the large numbers.

So the biggest threat, which was the Skeleton Archers, had to be dealt with first. Even though their Attack Power was reduced by the Evil Curse, it didn't mean they posed no threat.

After two volleys, defenses would certainly be breached, a fact Demon Blood had witnessed before, so the Skeleton Archers had to be killed first.

As for the remaining Skeleton Soldiers, Skeleton Spearmen, and Skeleton Warriors, they were faced by the subsequent 417 Spirit Monsters. Demon Blood didn't demand a complete wipeout, only to hold them off, for as the vanguard to tear an opening, they would definitely attract enmity and slay a large number of Skeleton Soldiers.

To be honest, this time the opponent seemed to have either gotten smarter or developed tactics, as the Skeleton Archers were placed in the center rather than the rear. Qin Muye had discussed with Demon Blood to set up an ambush and attack from both sides, but Demon Blood had vetoed it.

The reason was simple: he was afraid something would happen to Qin Muye. If there were too many enemies this time, he feared that he wouldn't have enough time to end the battle. If the wild creatures then flooded into the territory, that would really be bad luck.

Hearing this, Qin Muye truly felt that attacking from both sides was not a good plan, and decided to stick with the original strategy.

The debut of the Frenzy Blood Spirit Monsters was quite impressive. In just two minutes, their Attack Power rose from 13 to 15. At level 5, with the addition of equipment, Demon Blood's Attribute reached 32 points, which naturally upgraded the troops' from the original 2 points to 3 points.

A group of Spirit Monsters, like a pack of mad dogs, swept across a large area and tore a huge rift through the Skeleton Soldiers.

Then, 417 Spirit Monsters formed ranks with the 100 equipped Spirit Monsters at the forefront, constantly besieging a large number of Skeleton Soldiers.

"Phew~ that was lucky. Thanks to the extra 100 Frenzy Blood Spirit Monsters, otherwise, this battle would have been tough." Elite is elite, far superior in Experience to ordinary troops; otherwise, what's the point of all that training?

If I do some extra work tomorrow early morning, I can produce another batch of Elites. Once this battle is over and the training ground is expanded, if I could train 200 Spirit Monsters at a time, that would be even better.

This battle was much easier than yesterday's. Although the number of wild creatures had increased, Qin Muye's side had undergone a qualitative change with the 100 Frenzy Blood Spirit Monsters. Additionally, with Qin Muye joining the fight, Demon Blood didn't have to constantly keep an eye on the Magic timing.

If it wasn't for the fact that Magic Effects couldn't stack, Qin Muye would have straight up used Evil Curse to reduce the opponent's Attack Power to 0 and then kept stacking Bloodthirsty Magic on his own side. With this give-and-take strategy, it would be like cutting through butter – one slice per enemy.

Unfortunately, there's no such bug.

With the demise of the Skeleton Archers, Demon Blood, along with the Frenzy Blood Spirit Monsters, wreaked havoc everywhere, creating a huge void in the midst of the Skeleton Soldiers.

Now the situation was decided, and with the ranged threat of the Skeleton Archers gone, Qin Muye took a sigh of relief.

He was afraid, too. Throughout history, how many heroes had been killed by stray arrows? Not to mention him, just a nameless small fry. With his measly defensive power, even the Skeleton Archers, having had their Attack Power reduced by 3 points, could still breach his defenses.

But with 417 Magic Energy Spirit Monsters in front of him, he wasn't worried about Skeleton Warriors, Skeleton Soldiers, or Skeleton Spear Soldiers reaching him at all.

Time passed slowly, and now there was no suspense left in this battle.

Qin Muye casually threw Bloodthirsty Magic, Attack Acceleration, and an Evil Curse at the enemy. Although it was indeed time to end the battle, he still couldn't be careless, especially since he had no other use for his Magic Value.

He glanced at the Life Value of the Frenzy Blood Spirit Monsters and Demon Blood and then cast three Healing spells, topping them up completely.

After the last Skeleton Spear Soldier died, the rewards naturally followed, still a large amount of Resources.
