The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Chapter 123 Destroy it or occupy it

It wasn't until the leaders with high-end bows and high-end arrows climbed up the tower that Xu Lai felt a burst of pain. Apparently, an arrow had penetrated deeply into Xu Lai's body.

Tahan looked forward with a solemn face, but his vision was really poor, making it extremely difficult to block.

Under such circumstances, Tahan did not injure Xu Lai for the first time until everyone was almost out of arrows.

Xu Lai still had to raise his bow to fight back, otherwise Tahan could completely put Xu Lai under his big steel shield, and there was no need to block him from the left and right like now.

With a hiss... sound, Xu Lai really felt pain in his flesh. Any movement he made made the wound feel like it was being pulled by countless threads.

This can only be blamed on Xu Lai and the others for being too ruthless. In the dark night, countless horse thieves and thieves who wanted to mount the wall to fight back all fell down without exception.

A conservative estimate would be that 5 or 60 people died on that wall, and even the wall stacks were almost all shot away.

If a leader hadn't stopped them with his own troops in time, all the unruly thieves in the village would have had to be sent away.

The terrifying performance of Xu Lai and others also made these leaders feel as if they were facing a powerful enemy. They only thought that some higher-level thieves commander was coming with his own bodyguards.

At the moment, no one dared to hold back, and they all took out the powerful arrows they had collected and used them. Otherwise, Xu Lai's magical armor with a defense of 50 points would not be so easy to be shot and hurt.

Xu Lai waved his hand, and the entire team immediately started moving again, with the mercenaries still covering the rangers.

After the horse came up quickly, it didn't take long to get out of the attack range of the thieves.

The leaders also took this opportunity to get out of the way and stationed the thieves on the wall of the village.

There are several crossbows on the wall that they bought through the black market. This type of crossbow placed on the wall for defense not only has a long range, but is also extremely powerful.

The only drawback is that it is not easy to replace the crossbow arrows and the firing rate is extremely slow.

However, before the thieves could reoccupy the wall, another shout of killing came from behind them.

At some point, an army appeared behind them.

This troop was more terrifying than the two groups of rangers outside the gate. They were rampaging in their backyard, almost entering a deserted area.

This was indeed the case. Almost all the most elite thieves were moved to the city wall, leaving only the horse thieves and some family members who were looked down upon by the leaders.

Needless to say, most of the family members were captured by horse thieves. At this moment, I'm afraid I wish they all died.

Of course, there are also some die-hards who have been in the horse thief camp for a long time and have even given birth to several children, trying to stop them with their own flesh and blood.

There were also several leaders who gathered late and tried to break up the formation arranged by Su Ya.

It's just that no one in the village is riding a horse, so a charge without a horse would have no power.

When they got closer, they discovered that the leader of the chiseled awl was actually a Minotaur that could be a whole taller than them.

With the blessing of Xu Lai's intermediate offensive skills and divine speed, the minotaurs used their hands to generate wind, and slashed left and right with three large axes. As long as they came close, almost no intact corpses were left.

A bandit leader managed to survive thanks to his good equipment, but he was unable to stop Su Ya and the others from moving forward, and was kicked out by the Minotaur.

The person was still flying in mid-air. Giselle had quick eyes and quick hands and shot an arrow straight into the door.

There were acquaintances in Su Ya's team. Under the leadership of Watanabe, Su Ya went straight to the core of the entire village.

She wouldn't act like a fool and attack the gate with the support of a watchtower and a ballista. Wouldn't it be better to save the enemy if he attacks them, and wait for the work in leisure?

The few remaining bosses are indeed worried that the heart of the castle will be dug out.

The most important thing is that Yin Andi's treasures for so many years are also there. Several people were restrained before, and no one could take away this property, and it is even more impossible to give up now.

Everyone frantically gathered troops and horses. As Xu Lai retreated, the monster thieves had already taken the initiative to pounce on Su Ya and the others.

The others hurriedly followed up, knowing very well that once these cannon fodders were killed, their own troops would have to die, and with each death, their competitiveness would be much worse.

Of course, they have no intention of competing now, but seeing that there are not many people in Su Ya, they feel that they can still compete.

However, when they arrived at the center of the cottage, they found that Su Ya had already occupied the only high ground, and a row of shooters were lined up.

The monster thieves who arrived a few steps ahead of them, without exception, all lay here.

Soon, the thieves' leaders understood the reason. In the cottage, which was illuminated by fire, it was like daytime. These leaders were stunned by the incoming arrow rain before they could even see the enemy clearly.

There are quite a few among the thieves who can shoot arrows. It is possible that none of them can shoot so far.

It doesn't matter if the key enemy can shoot far, he can still shoot accurately and hard.

Not to mention ordinary thieves, the ringleaders held up their shields and charged upwards. Those who didn't have shields would tear down the door panels.

However, within a few steps, the shield was shot down by a group of level 6 shooters. At this time, it was too late to escape.

Those thieves from before basically fell on the road to charge.

There are some bosses who want to take down the ballista on the wall, but several other bosses are already in despair.

The total number of people they have is estimated to be only a few dozen. Not to mention compared with Su Ya's troops in the meeting hall, even compared with Xu Lai's troops outside the village, they have no numerical advantage.

When quality is not good, quantity can only win.

Now they don't even have a measure, and they are being attacked from both inside and outside. Anyone who is a little smart knows that this cottage is hopeless. It is better to take advantage of the darkness and seize the time to pack up the things, and maybe have a chance to escape.

The thieves already had no advantage in numbers, and now they each had their own agenda, making it even less likely that they would stand a chance.

Before the thieves who went to carry the crossbow on the wall came back, the thieves below the meeting hall dispersed and left with their own people.

They didn't dare to go through the gate, but took a secret passage and emerged from another exit of the grove.

Fortunately, Xu Lai had intermediate eagle eye skills, and the fire in the wild was more obvious, so he noticed the thieves escaping from other secret passages.

Xu glanced at Tahan, who reluctantly pursued him with half of the mercenaries and rangers.

Su Ya in the meeting hall could not wait for the thieves' attack and was not in a hurry. She and Yu Lan, led by Watanabe, came to Yin Andi's residence.

Watanabe didn't know where Andy Yin's treasure was hidden, and Su Ya and others were too lazy to look for it slowly, so they simply found the three terrifying Minotaurs and performed a major operation on this room.

The minotaurs held three large axes taller than half a man in one hand, flying up and down, and quickly destroyed Yin Andi's residence completely.

Among the ruins, Su Ya found three locked treasure boxes.

The thieves didn't attack, and Su Ya didn't act rashly. Xu Lai and her agreed that if they succeeded, they would wait until dawn.

After all, it is inconvenient to do anything in vain.

Even if she sent someone to open the village gate at this time, Xu Lai would not have time to come in because people kept escaping from various secret passages.

He only had one Tahan in hand who could go on an independent expedition, so the troops could not be divided any further, so he had to lead the pursuit himself.

Xu Lai didn't want to let go of any of these thieves. Firstly, it was to prevent the other party from finding an opportunity to retaliate in the future, and secondly, because those who escaped must have brought a lot of wealth with them.

Once the horse thief camp was destroyed, all the resources in the camp came from him. How could he be willing to let people take them away now?

No matter how bad it is, if you kill them all, you can get a lot of experience and at least a valuable war horse.

Thanks to Xu Lai's speed power, otherwise he might not be able to catch up with these elite-level thieves with his level 4 rangers.

They had no intention of fighting. Even if they were caught up by Xu Lai, they didn't bother to resist. He easily defeated them one by one.

There were also those who knelt down and surrendered. In order to save time and capture more escapees, Xu Lai did not kill those who knelt down and surrendered, and only tied them to each other.

Not to mention, not everyone was killed when they saw Xu Lai, many thieves simply surrendered.

They could clearly see that the two cavalry teams, Xu Lai and Tahan, were really fast.

The thieves, who relied on speed to traverse the grasslands, knew very well the consequences of not being able to outrun others. Many powerful caravans in the past were slowly cannibalized to death by their infinite kites.

After working until midnight, when it was just dawn, Yu Lan took the three Minotaurs and opened the door of the cottage.

In the entire village, everyone who resisted had been killed, and the remaining people either ran away or surrendered.

Of course, most of those who escaped were captured by Xu Lai. Only a small number of them were lucky enough to escape. He really couldn't catch them.

Yu Lan welcomed Xu Lai into the village. In the central square of the village, many people were tied up, mostly young women and children.

Although Xu Lai guessed that they were all kidnapped by bandits, he did not dare to say that they were all innocent. It was estimated that there must be many people who were instigators.

Giselle guarded the meeting hall, and Su Ya personally led a team of spearmen and a team of shooters to search from house to house, making sure to find everyone in the village.

Even Watanabe, with a few young men he personally selected, was digging in the land near the meeting hall.

Xu Lai knew that they were digging for the heart of the castle, and only by digging this out could Xu Lai achieve the biggest goal of his attack.

Yu Lan hugged Xu Lai's arm with a smile on her face. She chuckled and said to Xu Lai:

My good husband, it's been so many days, and they haven't even assigned the control of the village. There are still more than a dozen places in the horse thief camp and the thieves camp that have not been recruited.

Xu Lai frowned. To be honest, he didn't think much of horse thieves and thieves. Although they were cavalry troops, they were troops of the dark forces. He didn't know if recruiting them would affect the morale of his troops.

At this moment, Watanabe shouted happily: Found it, found it.

When Xu Lai touched the castle heart belonging to the horse thief, he instantly got a piece of information in his heart.
