I Become a Landlady in the Game World-Chapter 758 - 380: Fierce Attack

No matter how many in the crowd were once residents of Blue Star, once they stood on the battlefield, they were sure of one thing.

War is ruthless!

Once the war starts, there are only two options: you die or I perish.

Therefore, as soon as the charge began, everyone picked up their weapons without hesitation and fought the enemy.

Hope Village had the Shield Soldier Team’s shield wall present, and a small-scale defensive war broke out directly at the scene.

Long spears, bows, long swords, and pikes... weapons continuously passed over the low wall, reaping the lives of Fasal Village soldiers and slaves and keeping them from breaking into their defense lines.

Of course, that was just the frontline.

Behind this bloody frontline was the bulk of the siege.

The first and second waves of personnel fought fiercely, while the third and fourth waves controlled large weapons to launch attacks on the city walls.

Catapults, Crossbow Carriages, Siege Cars, giant war vehicles...

There’s no need to elaborate on the catapults and crossbow carriages, as they are the siege weapons currently used in the village-level territory.

But the latter two were created by Harrison and several newly recruited weapons specialists, who provided the designs and Harrison provided the craftsmanship.

It wasn’t that Zhou Bai and his group didn’t want to create something more powerful, but the materials they currently had were insufficient to produce something with such great energy.

However, these two were already playing a significant role at the moment.

The two gigantic structures blocking the gates of Fasal Village were these giant war vehicles, entirely made of iron, bulky in frame, relatively high in defensive power, and specifically engraved with array patterns that could reflect damage; the purpose of the giant war vehicles was to build a bridge through a passage on their roofs with the city walls of equal height, launch an attack on the territory, and their tools beneath could destroy the city walls.

Besides that, a small platform could also be constructed between the two giant war vehicles to provide support for the personnel’s attack.

The other was the Siege Car, specifically designed to counter stones and arrows, sharp at the top and square at the bottom to hide soldiers, usually suitable for pushing under the city walls during a surprise attack, creating siege tunnels, placed beside the giant war vehicles, also providing cover for the warriors inside the vehicles.

Aside from there being only two giant vehicles, there were twenty each of the Siege Cars, catapults, and Crossbow Carriages, forming two rows directly.

The giant stones on the catapults were aimed directly at Fasal Village’s walls, with massive stones continuously smashing into the city walls from all directions, not only weakening the defensive power of the walls but also hindering the counterattack from above.

The arrows from the Crossbow Carriages also rained densely on the city walls.

The Siege Car prevented damage from above to the soldiers fighting below.

On either side of the giant war cars, strength-focused professionals vigorously used giant pendulums to continuously smash huge pointed iron rods against the city walls, causing the walls to seem to shake with each hit.

The four kinds of siege weapons coordinated with each other and effectively nullified Fasal Village’s counterattack.

The archers and catapults of Fasal Village were almost unable to successfully hit Hope Village’s forces because they were directly disrupted in front of the city walls, and even if some slipped through, they were shot down by the flexible archer team positioned at the rear of Hope Village.

This moment was a dual failure for Fasal Village.

The defensive power of the city walls was rapidly weakening, and even with reinforcements, it was still slowly declining.

In Wolf’s vision, he could only see the over three thousand men led by Aiden gradually thinning out.

"Lord, our attacks are completely ineffective. We can only let the mages fight and see if we can set their various war machines on fire or force the personnel inside the vehicles to abandon them," a Soldier Team Captain urgently suggested to Wolf.

Initially, he planned to burn Hope Village’s war machines, but then he suddenly remembered that most of the war machines made there were primarily made of iron ore. As a result, the fire intended for engineering weapons wouldn’t work at all, so they had to settle for targeting the weakness of iron ore.

After smelting, iron ore becomes extremely hard, with its only drawback being high thermal conductivity.

"Agreed," Wolf agreed without hesitation.

Hope Village’s anti-air defense line was just too strong; it had to be crippled first.

After Wolf agreed, a large group of mages began attacking in turns.

"Fiery Fire."

Huge flames attacked the war machines.

"Torrential Flood."

Before the fire could reach, Hope Village’s soldiers immediately used Water Elements to extinguish the flames.

"Flash Strike." 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Seeing the Water Elements concentrated near the war machines, Fasal Village’s mages quickly mobilized the power of lightning.

"Power of Atmosphere."

Thinking to use the conductivity of water and lighting, Hope Village directly cast an air-type magic spell, using air to form a protective shield that would not interact unless touched.

Fasal Village’s mages didn’t expect Hope Village’s mages to be so fast.

At Hope Village, seeing that they were mostly defending against the opponent’s attacks, and feeling a bit passive, they took advantage of the opportunity to catch the opponent off-guard during this counterattack and immediately organized a magic counterattack.

"Flame Hell."

"Siege and Conquest."

"Ruins."

"Destroying Dead Wood."

"Collapse."

"..."

Mage attacks from Hope Village were all aimed at damaging the city walls while they confronted the mages from Fasal Village and launched assaults on the walls simultaneously.

They worked to reduce the defensive power of the walls by reinforcing them.

Watching this scene made the mages from Fasal Village incredibly angry!

Provocation.

It was a blatant provocation.

With that, their counterattacks also began to intensify.

Soon, a magical duel took place over the skies of Fasal Village.

However, gradually, the mages from Fasal Village noticed something amiss.

"Why do they have so many mages?"

"The mages who were just fighting against us seemed to have retreated, and then someone immediately replaced them."

"How could Hope Village bring so many mages to attack our Fasal Village?"

"..."

Commonly accepted, mages are fragile, relying on magic power which is limited; thus, although mages have high damage, the proportion involved in combat is relatively small, especially when they are the attackers.

When Fasal Village attacked Hope Village last time, only ten percent of their force were mages.

But now, they were fighting on Fasal Village’s home turf.

They have many mages within their territory that have been temporarily conscripted for battle.

Therefore, rotating mages in Fasal Village was a normal event.

But what was happening at Hope Village was not normal.

The Soldier Team Captain leading the Magician Team immediately reported the situation to Wolf.

Wolf was focusing on Aiden’s attack below! He had just sent another five hundred professionals to assist Aiden, along with his orders, hoping to tear open a defensive line from below to neutralize Hope Village’s siege weapons.

However, the result was disappointing.

Even with the addition of five hundred, Hope Village still held the advantage in the battle.

Currently, it was the soldiers of Fasal Village who were continuously getting injured and sacrificing themselves.

He didn’t know the casualty details of Hope Village, he only knew that many soldiers and slaves had already perished in Fasal Village.

Among the slaves, those he had arranged to try and surrender to infiltrate Hope Village’s forces were completely rejected.

Hope Village Residents were said to be kind-hearted and treat slaves well.

All lies! Deceptions!

Wolf fumed inwardly.

While Wolf was furious, the Soldier Team Captain leading the Magic Team had already come to report.

"The proportion of mages on Hope Village’s side seems incorrect," the Soldier Team Captain began, "Looking at the rotation, their number of mages must be at least a thousand, otherwise they couldn’t withstand our attacks and still counterattack."

"Are you sure?" Wolf’s eyes flashed.

If Hope Village indeed had such a high number of mages, did it mean that they focused their primary force on air defense? Then it might be more feasible to break through from the ground.

"Positive," replied the Soldier Team Captain without hesitation.

"Keep your team engaged with them."

"Yes."

The Soldier Team Captain quickly turned back to continue organizing the offense.

And Wolf directly assigned two thousand more men, preparing to join Aiden’s frontline battle.

This time, he would lead the frontal battlefield himself.

As long as they could break through Hope Village’s defenses below, Hope Village would no longer pose a threat.

A group of mages, once their magic power was exhausted, would be finished!
