Those cavalrymen were Slaanesh Heartseekers; before Lamassu could even take off, they pierced through him with their blades, and he fell to the ground unwillingly.
They appear to be light cavalry, with good attack, defense, and health; there are more than a dozen of them.
Seeing this, the Dread Knights remained unfazed. If they dared to charge, they would make sure the Dread Knights never returned.
In the long years of waiting for their summons, they conceal their sharpness, but against any enemy that dares to invade, they will only crush them with a charge.
The Dread Knights truly deserve their title as the strongest cavalry!
They seemed surprised to find cavalry here, especially heavy cavalry.
The leader of the Slaanesh Heartseekers swallowed hard, then led his followers in a swift turn and, without hesitation, turned tail and ran.
The street terrain not only limited their numerical advantage, but they also dared to charge into heavy cavalry under these circumstances. Were they afraid of dying too soon?
If they were on a plain, they might not necessarily be afraid of these three heavy cavalrymen.
They may not be as good as heavy cavalry in terms of offense and defense, but they are more agile, so it is still possible to hold them off.
Even after the cavalrymen had gone far away, Liu Nian remained vigilant. This was just the vanguard; their main force should have already arrived nearby.
The raven's warning confirmed this, as several hundred Slaanesh cultists were heading in this direction.
The dragon crossbowmen in town have now fallen silent. Based on the experience points I've gained, they should have been wiped out by the Black Knight. I just don't know how many remain.
Their arrows have strong penetrating power and can penetrate the magic shield to kill Liu Nian's body.
Once the attack is fully formed, even someone as powerful as Liu Nian wouldn't dare to take it head-on.
Fortunately, their numbers were small. Last time, they were not only accidentally hit and their shields were broken, but they also almost lost their lives. Thinking about it still makes him feel lingering fear.
Most of the Slaanesh raiders on the street had become his experience points and were lying on the ground. If they had reinforcements, Liu Nian wouldn't mind having a go at them.
Because the undead army doesn't need to rest, except for the ghouls, there are many pillager corpses on the ground, which can quickly restore their health.
Although he had just commanded a battle, his mind was still sharp and he didn't need to rest.
As for replenishing mana, there's even less to worry about. I already had plenty, and the three guilds I raided last time also contributed a lot. I hope they're all doing well.
The vampires were currently moving through the various rooms, continuing to kill the Slaanesh units left behind, giving them no chance to catch their breath.
There were bound to be some Slaanesh cultists who managed to escape, so Liu Nian didn't pursue them.
He also needed to begin integrating his troops; the ravens' signals were getting closer, indicating that their reinforcements were already nearby.
As the opposing troops gradually appeared in front of Liu Nian, he also set up his formation on the street, waiting for the new opponent to attack.
Not only that, before they arrived, he had some free time to perform a soul-summoning ritual. Looking at the data on the soul-summoning panel, Liu Nian smiled knowingly.
If it's them, maybe it can increase the odds of winning a little.
Anyway, if he fails, escaping won't be a problem; his level 20 vehicle will ensure his safe escape.
Enough of the small talk. This force is clearly more impressive than the one that ambushed Hammerfall, consisting of a mixed force of Heartseekers, Wrathful Demons, Succubus Handmaids, and Lustful Demons.
This is only what's in the open; who knows if there are other forces operating in secret.
The enemy was clearly not in a hurry to attack; they had positioned their troops outside the town, and the God was listening to the report from the defeated succubus maidens.
Upon learning about Liu Nian's unit composition, the Divine Lord visibly showed some emotional fluctuation.
Necromancer? Hearing this touched a nerve with the deity.
The Raiders Alliance, a force he had cultivated himself, was dismantled by a necromancer.
Thinking of this, the Divine Sorcerer became angry again. When she caught that necromancer, she would definitely teach him a lesson.
The opposing forces had been stationed outside the town for most of the day without making a move, so it was impossible for them to launch a proactive attack, as their forces far outnumbered Liu Nian's.
Liu Nian calmed down and waited patiently.
To make the other side anxious, Liu Nian touched the object at his waist and came up with a plan.
As the signal flare representing Zhen Dan rose slowly in the center of the town, the arcane artist knew that her time was running out.
It's either fight or run. Hesitation will only allow the Zhen Dan troops to arrive one after another, and the longer it drags on, the worse it will be.
Interesting. Looking towards the town center, she smiled slightly.
The undead forces on the other side clearly had no intention of engaging them head-on, which was a wise choice.
Undead units generally have short range, while our own forces are highly mobile, which can effectively neutralize this advantage in urban warfare.
I have to say, the necromancer on the other side is quite skilled.
I just heard that the mage has about two hundred undead, and his undead have a complex structure, which might be useful.
Slaanesh's troops cautiously entered the streets, not rushing to engage Liu Nian in battle.
They began to encroach on houses one by one, and then their remote units slowly spread out on the rooftops, extending towards this area.
It seems the signal flare didn't make them anxious; they continued to maintain a steady pace.
The opposing commander is very capable, Liu Nian thought to himself as he watched their movements.
The flock of ravens kept patrolling the surroundings to ensure that Liu Nian's troops would not be outflanked.
Two ravens followed the Heart Chaser, one in front and one behind, to ensure they did not try to sneak in.
The terrain in urban warfare is not conducive to overall planning, and even though Liu Nian was standing on the roof, he could only get a general view.
He was in a favorable position, with his ranged units positioned on the rooftops of several nearby houses, patiently awaiting the arrival of his opponent.
All I need to do is stall for time; the longer I stall, the better it will be for me.
The other party should know this, but I don't know what she's up to, she's actually able to stall even longer than I am.
He remained calm. Liu Nian's troops guarded the main roads of the town, and there were also patrol units in the air. He was not afraid of a surprise attack.
The situation was so strange; neither side seemed eager to attack, both waiting for the other to make a mistake.
In the end, the opposing deity lost his patience and ordered the ranged units that had been persuaded to fire first.
At the command, the archers on the rooftop began to unleash their power, raining down arrows and musket fire upon Liu Nian's troops.
Meanwhile, ground troops, in coordination with long-range harassment, continued to close the distance to Liu Nian's troops.
The first to charge were the skeleton warriors, who were unafraid of attacks from ranged units.
With an initial 25% damage reduction from ranged attacks, coupled with Liu Nian's defensive spell for further reduction, the damage received was actually not severe.
Moreover, the enemy didn't actually have many ranged units to lure them in, so this wave could only be considered a small-scale harassment.
Come on, I crave more too! Watching the purple waves surge across the street, Liu Nian shouted inwardly!
