Chapter 23: Forged of Iron and Blood, Additional Information
Follow the winding swamp path further in.

Soon, the mist began to dissipate.

After going deeper into the swamp, tall trees began to appear. Although they were sparse, they were endless and, together with the tall grass, blocked the view. The visual range was only one or two hundred meters.

The muddy pool gave off a faint stench of decay, and from time to time fish tails could be heard lapping at the surface of the turbid water, creating ripples.

There are many mosquitoes and venomous snakes in the swamp, which are even more dangerous than swamp monsters, can penetrate any hole, and are extremely poisonous.

Because of the dragon's feces, they had already fled in panic, so it didn't have much impact on them.

After walking like this for about twenty minutes, a long howl suddenly came from the front.

It's Haggis's voice!
Warning of enemy attack!

Li Er's pupils shrank sharply and he waved his hand to order the team to stop moving forward.

Let 5 teams of wetland lizardmen warriors guard, and the rest of the army press forward.

After turning two corners, the view became wider.

In a low, open wetland, muddy water half-soaked the short grass. A few large trees stood alone in the middle of the wetland, with a hazy green.

Hags, a level 7 hero, was leading five teams of wetland lizardmen, roaring and attacking monsters that kept pouring out from a ten-meter-high, weed-covered hill in the back.

He is about 1.2 meters tall and looks like a half-grown child.

It has a pointed mouth, two sharp teeth protruding from its lips, and four long whiskers around its mouth that almost wind their way to the back of its head.

The ears are huge and the eyes are crazy.

Its body is like an enlarged version of a mouse, but it walks upright.

The claws were as sharp as daggers, reflecting a cold light in the morning sun.

Keld Ratman

[Level]: Level 3

[Potential]: 1 stars

[Racial Talent]: Death Plague. Carrying deadly germs, after harming the enemy, the enemy will be infected with the plague.

[Skills]: Bite (1 star) Use sharp teeth to bite the enemy, causing piercing damage.

[Evaluation]: These creatures come from underground. Don't be scratched by their sharp teeth.

Level 3 wild monster.

Lear's eyes narrowed slightly.

The level is not high, but there are too many of them!
There seems to be their nest in the small hill behind.

At this moment, the number of people gathered outside has exceeded 4 squadrons, and they are still coming out in an endless stream.

A large area of ​​darkness.

Even though the combat effectiveness of the wetland lizardmen is far higher than that of the enemy, due to their exaggerated numbers, they are like reefs hit by the sea water.

It may collapse at any time.

Lear gave the order immediately.

"Go in and join Hagus!"

The wetland lizardman warrior did not hesitate at all, gripped the steel knife tightly, and roared as he charged into the dense crowd of Kelder rats.

The steel knife swung, puff~
The ratman without armor protection was directly chopped into pieces.

Blood spurted out wildly.

But the ferocious rat people had no intention of retreating. Instead, the smell of blood stimulated the brutality in their hearts. They split into two groups and rushed towards the two teams respectively.

He pounced on me, hugged me and started biting me madly.

The sharp teeth are like daggers, piercing through the armor and tearing the scales!
The number of ratmen was too overwhelming, and even if the steel swords were arranged in a row, they could not completely block them.

The dozen or so wetland lizardmen in the front were the first to be attacked. The crazy ratmen lay on them and bit them hard in the gaps of their armor.

Click~
You can hear the crisp sound of bones breaking.

The enraged wetland lizardman swung his steel knife violently, and with a whoosh, he directly cut off the opponent's head.

But what is chilling is that even after being beheaded, the ferocious rat head still tightly gripped their bodies and refused to let go.

The intensity is even getting stronger!
The terrifying bite force caused the arms of many soldiers in the front to be bitten through directly.

But after being injured, the wetland lizardman went crazy, and his amber eyes turned scarlet.

He roared and charged in.

The car overturned and a large group of ratmen appeared in front of it, and they joined Hags.

At this moment, there were 15 teams of wetland lizardmen warriors on the battlefield.

However, the number of Keld Ratmen increased from 4 squadrons to 7 squadrons.

A sea of ​​rats formed in the swamp.

Moreover, new ratmen continued to emerge from the overgrown hill at the back.

The opponent is only about 1.2 meters tall, has average strength, and almost no defense.

But the abnormal thing is that the opponent's sharp teeth are extremely lethal. Even a 1-star armor can be bitten by it.

The scales of wetland lizardmen can be directly penetrated by it.

Although every bite costs a life, the number is too large.

Exchange life for injury!

These ratmen don't take death seriously at all.

Looking at the ferocious and fearless ratmen, Lear, who was at the center of the army, felt the cruelty of the swamp for the first time.

The Keld Ratman is in a state of madness, and the skill of the Remaining Power of the Gods cannot subdue a life in this state.

He took a deep breath and his eyes turned dangerous.

If you can't tame them, then... kill them all!

"kill!"

Magic power surges in the body.

A light blue light crossed the space and fell into the bodies of several severely injured wetland lizardman warriors in front.

The injuries on their bodies recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Swamp Gift (1 star, can grow) casts a beam of energy containing vitality, covering a range of 3*3 meters, which can speed up recovery from injuries and can restore up to 20% of health points. The recovery effect on the life of the swamp people is increased to 30%.

He has no damaging skills, but has powerful healing skills!

This is definitely the magical skill most needed by the warriors on the front line.

After a few treatments, the injured wetland lizardman warrior became ferocious again.

Fearless.

They fought with each other in the most brutal manner, and the battlefield turned into a meat grinder.

The steel knife chops and the sharp claws kill.

The face-to-face fighting, the sword cutting into the bone, the flesh and blood blurring, the scene of blood exploding, makes people feel cold in their hearts.

But at this moment, in the battlefield atmosphere, no one felt afraid anymore.

Everything was blurred in the blood, and there was only one thought: kill!

Kill the bastard on the other side!!
The low grassy beach and the swamp with rolling water plants were now scarlet.

The rotten stench of mud and water mixed with the stench of blood at this moment, making people feel nauseous.

As a heroic unit, Hags has now erupted with unimaginable combat power.

A faint scarlet energy emanated from his body, burning his surface like flames.

Qi and blood!

With the addition of thousands of points of energy and blood, Hags' destructive power soared.

Almost single-handedly, he blocked the Keld ratmen in one direction.

One knife each!
The power of heroes is best demonstrated at this moment.

But the brutal and crazy Keld ratmen used the timeless human wave tactics to suppress this wetland lizardman hero.

It is true that a swarm of ants can kill an elephant.

According to a rough estimate, there are more than one battalion of ratmen in front of them, over a thousand!

The number of casualties is difficult to count.

Lear did not kill a rat-man himself.

But when he, who possessed powerful healing skills, took charge of the center, the rhythm of the entire battle changed.

The effect of the human wave tactic of exchanging lives for injuries was suppressed to the freezing point.

The scars left on the wetland lizardman warriors by the casualties of four or five Keld ratmen were healed in the blink of an eye.

The enemy's brutal sacrifices did not achieve the desired results.

15 teams, 150 people. With extremely high efficiency, they killed more than Keld Ratmen!
Finally, after another attack was chopped off by the steel knife, a shrill rat squeaking sound was heard from the hill behind.

There were still five or six squadrons of Keld Ratmen retreating like a tide, all disappearing into the hills behind.
Only corpses and body parts were left all over the ground.

The thick smell of blood even made it impossible to see the original color of the swamp soil.

Lear stood on the battlefield, watching the horrifying scene indifferently, and slowly exhaled.

The blood and body parts no longer made his heart tremble. Iron, blood, and killing were forging a lord suitable for survival in the wilderness.

Before he could make any move, the intelligence system in his mind suddenly flashed.

[You commanded the army to kill 3692 Keld Skavens, achieved a brilliant victory, and obtained an additional intelligence]

[The Swamp Godhead has the ability to extract the essence of life force. As long as you are in the swamp, you can use the power of the Godhead to extract the essence of the life you have executed. Note: The essence of life can promote the evolution of the swamp tribe's life, allowing it to break through the potential limit and complete the transformation. The upper limit of the potential you can improve for your subordinates is now: 2 stars. You need to control the authority of the swamp to increase the upper limit.]

Li Er's breath trembled and his eyes suddenly became hot.
