Chapter 85 Nomad (fifth update, please subscribe)
Since Xu Lai came to this world, he has personally participated in every battle and wiped out all his opponents.
The soldiers he recruited have so far maintained an outstanding record of zero death rate.
However, today's zero death rate record was finally broken, because the opponents he faced this time were a group of guys who could attack from a distance, and he tried to be diplomatic with these guys.
If Xu Lai had not wanted to diplomacy with them, even if these dwarves could attack from a distance, Xu Lai could have used the kite tactic of shooting and running to kill these dwarves.
The terrifying range and power of a level 5 shooter would probably kill these dwarves before they even got into range without running away.
But in order to communicate with them, Xu Lai had to enter their warning range, and successfully broke into their attack range.
Fortunately, Xu Lai rushed to the front. The flower elves were flapping their wings so hard that they could not catch up with Xu Lai's speed.
Moreover, as Xu Lai and the others quickly approached, the threat value of their four knights was rising rapidly.
Relying on the advantage of their rank, after a round of arrow rain, the sharpshooters fired two rounds faster than the stone-throwing dwarves, so 7 more stone-throwing dwarves fell, including one who was obviously bigger. A large level 2 dwarf.
But soon, Xu Lai and the others were faced with a rain of stones.
Using a shield to protect his head and face, and a magical armor to protect his chest, Xu Lai was not actually injured. The injured part of his thigh did not even deduct ten points of health.
However, the war horse under his crotch suddenly began to twist, which meant that Xu Lai was more than halfway through level 3 of riding skills. Otherwise, Xu Lai might have been thrown off by this twist.
Falling down at such a high speed and being trampled by a horse is too much for even a 16-point physique.
Stone rain has no effect on Xu Lai, not on grassland horses whose defense is not high.
Fortunately, the prairie horse's health value was quite high. A few shots of rocks didn't drop much life, but the horse was hit on the head and almost lost control.
The cavalry sprinted very fast, and with the blessing of logistics, the charge or sprint skills were activated. The two mercenaries sprinted over before the third round of the stone-throwing dwarf's attack.
The third stone was thrown, but it failed to be thrown. The two mercenaries were like murderous gods crossing the border, and they kept stepping on the horse all the way.
This is definitely not a 30% probability of sprinting and maintaining, because the formation of the stone-throwing dwarves is still relatively thick, so they trampled on at least 4 or 5 targets along the way.
But it’s no wonder that the stone-throwing dwarf is too short. As long as it reaches Xu Lai’s thigh, a prairie horse can trample him, let alone the two taller and majestic wilderness war horses.
The cavalry spears of the two mercenaries had no room for use at all. After trampling all the way through, they actually didn't hit a single target.
Xu Lai was more embarrassed. His horse was slower and he rushed into the crowd of dwarves with the knights who protected him.
The dwarf was so tall that he jumped up and hit Xu Lai on the calf.
Fortunately, Xu Lai wore long boots with leg defenses, which happened to protect his calves.
Besides, Xu Lai's physical constitution is also high. 16 points of constitution brings 16 points of defense, plus 6 points of knight's boots, the dwarf can't even break the defense.
But on the screen, the dwarf kept jumping up and beating Xu Lai. Xu Lai's orc battle ax slashed left and right, but couldn't even hit half of the target.
Having no choice but to switch to a simple long gun, one shot at a time, it is also very exciting to poke.
After the flower elves rushed into the group of dwarves, the dwarves also stopped eating completely.
The flower elves are a little better. At least after being surrounded by several flower elves, the dwarves can fight back once or twice.
Level 2 flower demons are more difficult to deal with. After their small daggers scratch the enemy, they will secrete paralyzing toxins, making the dwarf stunned for a while, completely missing the opportunity to fight back. If Xu Lai had not dismounted and fought on foot to gain equestrian experience, he might have killed monsters faster.
And because they are facing the enemy head-on, the long-range archers in the rear no longer shoot arrows easily. Each arrow needs to be aimed for a while before firing to avoid accidentally damaging friendly targets.
A moment later, Xu Lai had just finished warming up, and the dwarfs were already lying on the ground, revealing the resource pile they had been guarding behind them.
After the battle was settled, the two flower elves were promoted to flower demons. Xu Lai picked up another 7 or 8 gold coins and turned around to see the poor little flower elves who died on the charge.
Xu Lai was charging ahead and didn't bother to look behind him. At this time, he felt somewhat regretful.
The record of zero casualties was broken, and he had no choice but to gather his emotions, turn around and run towards the nomads.
After Xu Lai joined Su Ya's troops outside the nomads' warning range, he hesitated for a moment.
The nomads are fast mobile troops. Although they are not as fast as the mercenaries, the distance of less than 100 meters is enough for the marksmen to fire three rounds at most.
Xu Lai silently adjusted the default attack of the marksman, changing the single shot to a double shot. This may cause the marksman to shoot less than 3 rounds, but he can shoot at least 4 arrows, and the total damage is certain higher.
Not only the sharpshooters, but also the flower elf troops who had sacrificed a flower elf were also pulled up by Xu Lai.
There were more than 20 nomads on the opposite side. If his five horsemen were surrounded, Xu Lai was worried about casualties.
If there are flower elves on the side to share the burden, then with their defense and level, it is possible to be injured, but it is unlikely that someone will die.
Even the fragile flower elf may suffer losses again, but there is no way.
It is impossible for Xu Lai to give up the opportunity of diplomacy and kill him directly. After all, these are also human troops. They have a basic friendly level and the probability of successful diplomacy is very high.
“A group of nomads admire you and are willing to join your army.
But their leader has asked you for settlement expenses, a total of 600 gold coins. Do you accept it? ”
The friendliness level played a great role. The nomads directly admired him and were willing to join for free.
However, among this group of nomads, there was also a nomad leader, It is a level 4 soldier and requires 600 gold coins to settle down.
600 gold coins is just 600 gold coins. Compared with a group of nomads, this cost is very cheap, but compared with a single level 4 leader, this price is expensive. Some.
After all, Xu Lai only had 500 gold when he recruited the fourth-level witch, so he still had hidden troops.
There is no qualitative difference in equipment between the nomad leader and the nomads. Ordinary nomads wear leather armor, a scimitar, and a pair of spears.
The leader of the nomads has a bow, a horse, a scimitar, a quiver and a spear with a fine steel head.
The weapons of the nomadic leader are similar to those of mercenaries. The war horses and equipment are two levels behind. They are still leather armors, but they are reinforced leather armors.
The thing under his crotch is not the grassland horse of ordinary nomads, but a grassland war horse that has been upgraded to one level, which is probably the level of a ranger.
[Nomad] Neutral Terran level 3 cavalry unit, which can be promoted to ranger or bandit leader.
[Nomad Leader] A neutral human level 4 cavalry unit that can be promoted to a mercenary or bandit leader.
