The commanders besides Fei were stoked.
Fei's strength was beyond their imagination! From the look of it, they felt like this No.1 Commander was worth more than tens of thousands of soldiers! As long as the king of Chambord was there, Dual-Flags City won't be in any danger.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Fei had shot out four arrows in an instant, and they all hit their targets. As air-piercing noises sounded, the four catapults far away were exploded like balloons that got popped by needles.
"Thank you Prince Fairenton for the bow! It is powerful, and I like it a lot!"
Fei stopped after he had shot out five arrows. He took a deep breath and shouted loudly as he laughed. Everyone on the battlefield heard it, and some soldiers of Zenit even repeated after him and cheered, "Thank you Prince Fairenton for the bow!"
Crack!
Fairenton stood up and clapped down at the chair he was sitting on; his face was very gloomy.
The guards beside him all shivered in fear. This prince was known for his short-temper! Not too long ago, a young nobleman offended him. As a result, that young nobleman got smashed into meat paste, and his family got wiped out.
It was evident that this prince was mad at the moment; all the guards hoped that he wouldn't take out the anger on them.
Fortunately for these guards, they were safe.
They found out surprisingly that Prince Fairenton actually tried hard and suppressed his anger
...
After five catapults were destroyed, the commanders of Jax decided to abandon these siege machines, and they moved the rest of catapults back to their camp. It sounded impossible for someone actually to defeat 20 catapults using only arrows, but it took place on this battlefield. The soldiers of Jax experienced the power of the king of Chambord again.
However, this siege was far from over.
The soldiers of Jax started the most direct method of siege. They rushed at the defense wall like waves of water, and they all used siege ladders that were hundreds of meters long. After hundreds of these ladders were hooked onto the battlements, it seemed like what happened two hours ago was being replayed again; the cruel battle was about to begin.
However, Fei clearly sensed the difference.
Although there were tens of thousands of enemies charging at the city, they were more scattered around. They didn't use expensive and bulky siege machines like [Siege Dragon Birds]; they only used light siege ladders and ropes that were easier to carry. Also, they didn't target the city gate this time; it seemed like there wasn't an emphasis as they just tried to climb up the defense wall.
"Huh? It seems like they don't want actually to conquer the city. Could it be that they want to prolong the war as well?"
Generally, in sieges, the attackers would try to get a breakthrough point. As long as they could get into the city, the city would be conquered for sure. Therefore, that was why the strategy Jax was using was bizarre; it seemed like they didn't want to commit to anything. As if they were teasing Dual-Flags City, it felt like they could break through the defense of Dual-Flags City but weren't going to do it.
In this situation, the power of Fei's arrows was significantly reduced.
After the enemies scattered around, Fei's arrow couldn't kill 30 enemies at one go anymore. At the moment, he could only kill one to two enemies at a time, and the threat he posed to this siege was minimalized.
After giving it some thoughts, Fei didn't use any more of Amazon Character's skills such as [Multiple Shot] and [Exploding Arrow]. Instead, he put away [Eagle of the Desert] and switched back to Barbarian Mode. Then, he used the miraculous skill [Summon].
After a bloody red light flashed by, 15 huge warriors appeared beside Fei.
These warriors were almost completely naked; only their abdomens and thighs were protected by leather armors that were bloodstained. They were either holding dual-swords or axes in their hands, and green beast tattoos and green totem tattoos were all over their muscular bodies including their necks and faces.
With a wild and berserk aura around them, they looked like 15 Demon Beasts.
These were the 15 Barbarian Warriors Fei got after completing the quest [Rescue on Mount Arreat].
The appearance of these 15 warriors surprised the commanders and the Saint Seiyas beside Fei.
"We are under your command!" the 15 Barbarian Warriors bowed at Fei and shouted as crazy admiration appeared in their eyes.
This scene made the commanders and the Saint Seiyas relax.
"They are No.1 Commander's subordinates; thank god they aren't the enemies," they thought.
This was Fei's first time summoning these Barbarian Warriors, and he didn't expect their appearances to be this shockingly ferocious. He was stoked, and he passed down a series of commands.
These 15 Barbarian Warriors roared, used the skill [Leap], and jumped down from the defense wall.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
Almost at the same time, 15 howls sounded. These Barbarian Warriors all used Barbarian Warcries and put the organized enemies into a state of chaos and fear. How could ordinary soldiers resist against the skills that the Barbarian Warriors learned from battling with monsters and demons? They all felt an insane amount of fear, and they ditched their weapons and started to run away.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Barbarian Warriors were quite agile. With weapons in their hands, they already destroyed more than 20 siege ladders, and more than 200 enemies who were on these tall ladders fell and died.
After having battled with demons for ages, the Barbarians were gifted with god-like battle abilities and techniques. Each of these Barbarian Warriors was like a merciless killing machine. Looking from above, it looked like the 15 Barbarian Warriors were like 15 huge sharks in the ocean made of all the enemies.
Skills such as [Howl], [Shout], and [Taunt] were used consecutively, and they sometimes even used skill [Find Potion] to loot potions that could recover their health and mana from the corpses. These 15 Barbarian Warriors coordinated perfectly, and they looked like a well-trained Ace-team in Fei's eyes.
Fei was observing them carefully.
He found that these Barbarian Warriors were around level 15 and level 16, and they didn't learn a lot of skills; from the look of it, it seemed like they only learned about ten skills or so. In this world, they would be considered as Two-Star or Three-Star Warriors.
However, it seemed like these Barbarian Warriors didn't have their intelligence. Although they were more flexible than most of the dull NPCs in Diablo World, it felt like they only had the instinct and the murderous spirit of warriors. Although they wouldn't be considered as real "humans", Fei saw that they would bleed after they got injured, unlike the NPCs...
Also, what surprised Fei was that when these Barbarian Warriors used [Find Potion], they found [Mana Potions] and [Health Potion] instead of mutated [Hulk Potions] and [Fake-Death Potions].
Finally, after the Barbarian Warriors destroyed about 40 siege ladders, they attracted the attention of the commanders of Jax.
"What a bunch of ferocious warriors! When did Dual-Flags City get these warriors? It would be great if they would be under my command!" haughty Prince Fairenton observed the battle and stated. All of his generals and strategists knew that his appreciation of talent was at it again, but they didn't know how to respond.
"Do you guys know where they are from?" the prince turned around and asked.
"They should be the retinues of the king of Chambord. Before the reinforcement came, there weren't such warriors in Dual-Flags City," a person in a fancy robe answered casually.
This person was in his 40s, and he wasn't wearing armor and didn't have a weapon on him although he was on the battlefield. He was calm as he observed the battle.
He was wearing a light blue robe that was popular among the nobles of Zenit, and he didn't have a big beard or long curly hair like people of Jax do. From the look of it, it seemed like he was indeed a noble of Zenit.
Not sure how he got to the side of Jax, but it was obvious that he surrendered to Prince Fairenton.
All this time, he had a calm and mysterious smile on his face, and he ignored all the disdainful looks the commanders of Jax gave him.
"It looks like the king of Chambord is really an obstacle in our way! In order to get farther into the east, we need to kill him first!"
Prince Fairenton placed Fei on the same level as him, and he was getting more and more concerned over Fei.
"Pass my order! Tell the Heaven-Killing Squad to attack! Tell Clark to kill those 15 warriors!"
