Chapter 68 The defeated jackals
The soldiers who had a chance to breathe quickly adjusted their condition, and most of them regained their combat effectiveness with the help of blood-activating potions.

Angela, who commanded the soldiers to stabilize the defense line, once again realized the importance of the blood-activating potion.

At the same time, Angela also had a clearer understanding of the timing and powerful power of the Lord's fireball.

In a large-scale battle, the destructive power and deterrence caused by the spellcaster are very likely to change the outcome.

"Maybe we need more spellcasters?"

Angela quickly shook this somewhat absurd thought out of her mind.

There are only a few spellcasters like the Lord who are willing to take action in battle.

What Angela didn't know was that Matthew, who had just taken action, was enjoying the experience value prompts flooding the screen.

The only thing that made him regretful was that he could kill so many jackals in one go, but he didn't gain any valuable skill points.

However, Matthew is not discouraged and his idea has been successful.

Killing more than 20 gnolls allowed him to recover 55 mana points, which completely offset the cost of using the staff to release two fireballs!
Matthew had a vague hunch that with the continuous improvement of the two expertise levels, he was not far away from becoming a real battlefield spell turret!
However, what makes Matthew interesting is that in the digital prompts, the experience value contributed by nearly half of the Jackal warriors he killed has been reduced by about 30%.

Matthew made a bold speculation that the mana-draining effect was most likely fed back at the cost of devouring experience points.

However, Matthew was more than happy to make the exchange!
A dead enemy is a good enemy!

The fighting power in your hands is the real power!
Now that he had taken action, Matthew simply used all his firepower.

The magical missiles that can be aimed at the crowded jackals without basically having to aim have become a weapon in Matthew's hand to kill the enemy.

After being trained hard day and night by his predecessor, he was upgraded to LV3 Magic Missile, which can release 6 missiles that cause 3 points of damage at one time!

Coupled with Matthew's 24 points of intelligence and the terrifying bonus of spell judgment +7 damage +5, it has become a veritable death missile!
This skill killed three Jackal warriors!
This time, he was lucky. Matthew activated it one after another and drained mana twice, restoring 10 mana points.

Perfectly restored the mana for releasing magic missiles!
It’s almost lossless casting!
So, Matthew, who wanted to have a good fight and control his true fighting ability, transformed into a magic missile machine gun.

He released a series of magic missiles, harvesting the lives of the jackals wantonly.

The attacking group of gnolls on the left, in just a blink of an eye, the dense gnolls became sparse, and there were corpses everywhere with blood holes the size of fists smashed into their bodies!

Matthew even felt that as long as the gnolls remained gathered together, he had the ability to kill hundreds of gnolls!

Of course, Matthew didn't do that. After crippling the jackal on the left, he decisively chose to stop without exposing more of his strength.

The gnolls at the main entrance and on the left suffered heavy losses, and their offensive was severely weakened.

puff!

Click!

"Run... run fast..."

"so horrible……"

"what……!"

"We can't win...we lose..."

"..."

The shrill screams broke the minds of other jackals.

After seeing the miserable condition of their companions, many gnolls even began to run away.

The jackals on the right, who were unaware of all this, continued to launch rapid attacks under the leadership of the jackal barbarians.

However, the jackal barbarians soon discovered that the defense line that was shaky just now had become impregnable for some reason.

It couldn't figure it out at all. Aren't these human soldiers tired?
Not afraid?
Won't it hurt?
"kill……!"

Fierce shouts of killing came from behind the fence. More and more human soldiers gathered, and bloody spears continued to thrust.

The jackals who had no time to react immediately suffered heavy losses, with seven or eight of them falling.The jackal barbarians received special attention. They were attacked with sharp arrows and spears, and there were immediately a few bloody holes in their bodies.

The severe pain awakened the gnoll barbarian soldiers from their ambitions.

"The number of human soldiers has suddenly increased. Could it be that their reinforcements are coming?"

"This is very possible! After all, their number is sometimes more than that of kobolds..."

"Do you want to continue fighting?"

"Wait a minute, how come the sounds from other attacking directions have disappeared?"

A little panicked, it realized that the number of fellow Jackal soldiers around it was becoming fewer and fewer.

There were even gnoll poachers who retreated blatantly.

The jackals in the other two directions left only corpses on the ground.

The strong smell of blood did not make him feel excited for the first time, but instead caused panic that went straight to the depths of his soul.

This situation was unacceptable to the jackal barbarians.

"This is impossible!"

As soon as some panic thoughts emerged, a fatal sense of threat grabbed hold of them.

The red fireball flew out from behind the wooden fence, followed by a "bang" explosion, and engulfed the gathered gnolls.

The jackal barbarians, feeling the astonishing heat of the fire, were about to grit their teeth and charge again.

The few experiences he had fighting spellcasters reminded him that the number of attacks a spellcaster can have is limited, as long as he can survive...

Boom!

The red and dazzling fireball instantly surrounded its location, and the hot and destructive flames crushed the last hesitation in its heart and led it into the final darkness.

"Ding, your dragon-born kobold Silver Fang killed the elite jackal barbarian soldiers and gained 140 experience points."

Matthew, who was recording the data, realized that there was a huge gap between ordinary professionals and elites, and the double experience was just a hint.

As the last Gnoll barbarian soldier was killed, Matthew saw that the Gnolls became extremely confused and fled in all directions.

This sudden battle.

It ended with the jackals suffering heavy losses and only a hundred or so escaping!
Angela cast a questioning look at Matthew, who just shook his head, pointed to the injured soldier and said:
"Arrange all the injured to receive treatment as soon as possible to avoid sequelae."

Matthew's love for the soldiers and the importance he paid to the people in the territory have become things recognized by everyone.

Angela also admired this aspect of the Lord Lord very much. She announced the victory and end of the battle to everyone, and immediately started arranging rescue arrangements.

The relaxed soldiers cheered:
"They all ran away..."

"We are victorious!"

"Won!"

"Ouch, when did I get the wound on my leg?"

"Why are you still standing there? Take a sip of the blood-activating potion to save your life..."

"Bandage the wound first..."

"Don't think about picking up the loot, come and lie down quickly..."

"..."
