Chapter 102, The Insidious Priest
Very effective.
Even if the accuracy is not enough, it doesn't matter. As long as it hits, the rat troops that continue to come will help the wild boars knock these guys who have slowed down due to injuries to the ground.
In this narrow waterway, the rat men that came later almost used the previous batch of rat men as stepping stones.
Soon after, a section of the river was filled in, and the rat troops swarmed up.
Before the real battle began, the casualties were already considerable.
But this casualty is obviously not a big deal, and it cannot even shake the young rat people.
Holding the spear in his hand excitedly, he roared towards the city in front of him.
Compared to the huge smooth city wall of the Lizardmen's Old Apocalypse City, which was pulled out of the earth directly by magic, the Wild Boar City in front of us is obviously much rougher.
It was so rough that there was no need to build a siege rat ladder. These excited young ratmen were able to climb the city wall with only their sharp claws.
And then, and then again, the huge rolling log will be pushed down.
Countless young ratmen who climbed the city wall fell down, and then turned into stepping stones for their companions while wailing.
Fanatical, excited, wailing, fear, turned into rat cake.
This process is repeated in front of the city wall.
The morale of the rat people is indeed low, and the young rat people are the worst among them, but the prerequisite is a long-term stalemate and the huge disparity in power.
Until such a limit is reached, a strange mania goes on.
Under the illumination of the brazier, this situation seemed even more ferocious.
Trampling on the blood and flesh of their companions, these young ratmen rushed one after another with exaggerated and twisted smiles, accompanied by cheers and screams of unknown meaning.
Soon, the rolling logs on the city wall were almost exhausted.
But the dense crowd of young ratmen were still climbing towards the city wall, with the archers retreating and the spearmen pressing forward.
Starting from the beginning, young rat men jumped up from the city wall, cheering excitedly.
And discovered an embarrassing problem.
Facing the tall and fierce wild boar soldiers in front of them, the excitement on their faces quickly faded.
Obviously, such an obvious gap calmed down the guy who was so excited just now.
He quickly became afraid and wanted to run away immediately!
The huge contrast stunned the wild boar warriors who were holding their spears tightly for a moment.
They thought they were facing a steady stream of crazy lunatics.
Why did you suddenly change your face after climbing the city wall?
A little doubt arises.
But there was no room for them to hesitate on the battlefield.
The spear in his hand stabbed out subconsciously, even as the young ratman who climbed up tried his best to face the attack and raised the wooden shield in his hand.
Obviously, the gap was too big, the shield was broken, and the young rat man fell on the spot.
This calmed down some of the fears of these wild boar warriors.
It seems?
What I am facing is still the weak rat man in my impression!
The fear and panic in the hearts of the wild boar warriors calmed down a lot.
Until more and more young ratmen climbed up the city wall.
Yes, they are facing the weak ratmen. Even in the ratman empire, young ratmen are just cannon fodder slightly better than slave rats.
But there are too many young ratmen who are constantly pushed up by the rat tide.
The fallen young ratmen soon covered the city wall. But the number of young rat men who came up did not decrease at all.
The dark wave spreads from the invisible darkness outside the city, and it has not all appeared yet.
Even the crazy young Skaven will quickly recognize the gap after seeing the tall quilboar warrior and try to escape.
But the steady stream of young ratmen arriving will only push those who want to escape back to the city wall again.
Not to mention there are a large number of rat priests in this army, how could this situation be allowed.
A steady stream of berserk spells were cast.
There is simply no option to escape.
Gradually, the wild boar warriors on the city wall felt a little pressure, and this pressure was increasing as time went by.
Obviously they are not machines, even if it does not take much effort to kill a reckless young ratman with little combat experience.
In one attack after another, the physical strength of these guys was rapidly passing away.
At this time, I will give you the madness technique. Yes, the madness technique. This group of sinister priests hiding among the young ratmen like to use the madness spell on those wild boar warriors who are getting tired.
There are many advantages to doing this, interrupting the rotation and then making these guys lose their minds.
When the effect of the madness spell ends, the anger in the body subsides, and extreme weakness strikes, these wild boar warriors who are killing everyone will inevitably be overwhelmed by the rats.
As for the price to be paid, there is still a price to pay, such as the young rat people who were torn apart by the suddenly wild boar warriors.
When these young guys notice that a wild boar warrior has consumed too much energy, they often choose to swarm them. But at this time, if the originally exhausted prey is hit by a madness spell, then The result is of course one can imagine.
Soon, a large number of wild boar warriors fell on the city wall, and the battle line here became precarious.
For the rat people, this group of wild boar people is actually far less difficult than the lizard people.
Even though most of the wild boar warriors have used metal weapons, their strength is not much worse than that of the lizard men.
But no matter how sharp the weapon is, the impact it brings to the rat people is not big enough.
When they faced the lizardmen, they were always beaten one by one. Even the rat warriors, or those senior rat warriors, most of them could not withstand a blow from the lizard man's war stick.
The same is true for the wild boar people. These young rat people can't take a single blow.
Anyway, they were beaten to death, so the situation did not change drastically.
But there is another huge disadvantage on the wild boar side.
Compared to lizardmen, they don't have hard scales.
No matter how inferior the wooden spear in the hands of the rat man is, its damage effect on flesh and blood is ultimately better than that of collision with scales.
As for the powerful physique, there is also the leather armor worn on the body.
The powerful physique is not very effective in the numerous attacks.
As for the leather armor, most of the lizard warriors also had half-body leather armor, but they were still picked up by the rat warriors and senior rat warriors and stabbed to death in large groups on the areas not covered by the leather armor.
This group of wild boar warriors is not much better than the lizard warriors.
In this way, this group of well-equipped wild boar warriors were defeated steadily by these rat men with wooden spears.
Especially with the help of those sinister rat priests, the mad transformation spells fell one after another.
The defense on the city wall soon became unsustainable.
Until a group of cavalry rushed from a distance.
