Capítulo 23: Realistic Battle! Did The Anchor Really Cross Over?
"Quick, close the gate!"
After Richard rushed in, the five-member patrol team quickly closed the wooden gate of the small castle.
This five-member team was quite clever.
Normally, they wouldn't enter the castle. Upon discovering the bandits and their target being the small castle, they quickly retreated into it and started defending!
Back when Lord Ted was in charge, if they encountered bandits, these guys would already be running to hide.
But now, with Richard's established territory army numbering over sixty, each equipped with excellent gear, and with Richard himself being a noble mage, they were confident that he could defeat these dozens of bandits.
Moreover, to these five, this was a rare opportunity to make contributions.
They all wanted Richard to notice them a bit more!
Didn't they see that the treatment of the squad leaders was much better than theirs?
Bang~
The wooden gate closed!
"Master! Are you okay?"
Inside the small castle's hall, the cat girl Miwei ran out and asked.
Although this castle was small, it had an authentic castle layout. After entering the main gate, there was a small square, and further inside were the rooms.
"I'm fine. It's dangerous here. You go inside first!"
Richard gasped and said to Miwei.
[Oh yeah, I finally saw the cat girl again!]
[The anchor is not honest, playing hide and seek with the girl in the golden house for the past few days!]
[Wow, am I seeing things right, a cat...cat-eared girl?]
[...]
In the broadcast room, some netizens saw Miwei and exclaimed one after another. There were also some newcomers who were shouting excitedly.
Miwei obediently went inside. Her combat power was not strong, and she knew she would be a burden here.
Richard calmed his breath.
'Fortunately, I drew another reward yesterday, gaining basic archery skills and doubling my physical attributes,' Richard thought.
Yes, yesterday Richard drew another reward. After this draw, his physical attributes doubled.
Although increasing physical attributes by 1.5 times is also a good enhancement, the magnitude is not significant, and anyone diligent in training can achieve it.
Doubling physical attributes is quite noticeable.
Otherwise, Richard wouldn't have been able to run back so quickly.
Of course, prolonged running still consumes a lot of energy.
"Hold this place. Reinforcements will arrive soon!" Richard said to the five members of the patrol team.
"Yes!" The five patrol team members were already in position, holding their swords and shields, guarding the gate.
"30 of you, take your bows and arrows to stop those villagers. The rest of you, follow me to attack the castle. First, take out that lord. Anyone who dares to kill me, even if he's a noble, I won't spare him today!" the voice of the bandit leader Hani came from outside the castle.
Bang~
Immediately after, a sound of impact echoed.
The castle gate shook from the impact.
The gate of this small castle wasn't large, only about two to three meters high and not very wide, not even two meters wide, after all, it's a small castle.
The width of the gate of such a small castle is more conducive to defense. The outer wall was quite thick, about one meter thick, forming a gateway.
"Again!"
Outside the castle, the bandits lifted a several-meter-long log and slammed it again. These guys were quite well-prepared...
Bang~
Another loud noise, and the wooden gate trembled again, the latch almost coming off.
"Once more!"
After the bandits retreated, they slammed into it again.
With a loud noise, the gate of the small castle was finally shattered!
[This gate is too weak!]
[Wooden gates, how good can they be? With the same conditions, even iron gates might not withstand such impact.]
In the broadcast room, everyone watched nervously.
"Hahaha, the gate is open! Charge in, whoever kills the lord will receive an extra reward of 1 gold coin!"
Outside the castle, the voice of the bandit leader Hani echoed.
In fact, a bandit with a wooden shield had already rushed in.
Swoosh!
However, as soon as the bandit rushed in, a crossbow bolt shot out.
The bandit's reaction was quick; upon seeing Richard raise his hand, he held his wooden shield up in front of him.
With a crisp "crack," the crossbow bolt pierced through the wooden shield, hitting the bandit's shoulder directly!
"Ahhhh~" The bandit screamed in pain.
"Kill them! Five silver coins for each kill!" Richard said to the patrol team members, then directly took out a crossbow from his storage space and shot another bolt.
"Swoosh~" Immediately, another bandit who followed closely behind the first one was hit again.
However, more bandits were already queuing up behind.
Soon, another bandit charged out.
Once again, Richard took out a crossbow from his storage space and shot another bolt.
Crossbows take longer to reload than bows. However, Richard had five crossbows loaded with arrows in his storage space.
Time was nearly frozen in the storage space, and the crossbows did not have the problem of wearing out quickly due to prolonged tension.
Therefore, Richard could perform such operations.
He would take out a crossbow, shoot, and then throw it back into the storage space.
At this point, the phone's camera was focused on the front, so it didn't capture Richard's actions of taking out the crossbow from nowhere.
Watching Richard hit two bandits in such a short time, the people in the broadcast room were also quite focused. At this moment, everyone was tense, and remarkably, hardly anyone spoke.
Just as the second bandit was hit, the third and fourth bandits charged out.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Richard shot arrows from both sides, hitting the two bandits directly.
However, the crossbows with arrows were already used up.
Richard directly threw them into the storage space, took out a bow, pulled it to full draw, and shot at the fifth charging bandit.
With the sound of the bowstring vibrating, the bandit's abdomen was pierced directly.
The bow Richard bought was a training bow, not as powerful as a crossbow, so he didn't aim for the bandit's shield, fearing it might not penetrate.
Basic Archery still had some power. At close range, Richard was almost always accurate.
"Kill!"
Seeing Richard shoot down five bandits in such a short time, the five members of the patrol team finally gathered their courage and rushed up to hack at the injured bandits.
Meanwhile, Richard bent his bow again and shot another arrow.
Swoosh!
The sixth bandit was shot down!
"Charge!"
However, the bandits behind, unaware of the situation inside, were still rushing in.
Richard shot another arrow, and the seventh bandit was shot down!
"Ahhh, don't charge! His arrows are too powerful!" An injured bandit yelled.
However, the bandits behind continued to charge forward, unable to stop even if they wanted to.
Richard pulled his bow again and shot another arrow, knocking down another bandit.
And these bandits who were shot down would soon be finished off by the members of the patrol team.
With the incentive of silver coins promised by Richard and the sight of blood, the courage of the patrol team members grew and their adrenaline surged!
The bandits kept charging.
Richard consecutively shot arrows, taking down two more. After he took out the bow and arrows, the system's automatic recording directly included Richard in the camera's view.
In the broadcast room, people saw Richard smoothly shooting arrow after arrow. With each shot from him, the charging bandits fell!
Some female viewers were immediately dazzled and ecstatic!
[So handsome, why do I feel like I'm watching an elven prince!]
[I'm in love.]
[I'm already pregnant!]
Numerous female netizens sent barrage comments.
[This battle... If it's not CGI, I'll eat shit!]
[So realistic, look at those who got hit...]
[Yeah, it feels more and more real. Do you guys think the streamer has really crossed over?]
While female users were mesmerized by Richard's combat prowess, male users were discussing the authenticity of the battle!
This kind of melee combat looked particularly shocking and realistic, not like the multi-camera shots in movies.
For example, in a scene where someone is shot with an arrow, it's usually shot separately: one shot of the actor shooting the arrow, then one shot of the arrow flying, and finally one shot of the actor being hit.
In reality, props like blood packets would have been prepared in advance for the last shot. Through editing, these shots are combined and may be further enhanced with special effects in post-production.
But damn, Richard's live stream was just that, live.
Even the sound was synchronous.
So, many people, seeing such a realistic battle, suddenly had the thought: Did the streamer really cross over?
