Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 387: Chapter 165: Abilities of Divine Chosen Level Holy Image and the Rat People’s Misunderstanding (Part 3)

Su Li nonchalantly waved his hand and said, ”The Rat People’s target isn’t me. If they fire at me, they’ll only expose their own positions.”

Moreover, he had a Four-leaf Clover Destiny Talisman on him. If he were truly attacked, he could instinctively and fortunately dodge the first three assaults, so he wasn’t overly worried about the Rat People’s long-range sniper group.

Tiberus thought about it and felt that what Su Li said made sense, so he said, ”Lord, rest assured. If the Rat People lose their ranged weapons, their combat effectiveness is negligible. The Divine Spirit is fair; giving them Dimension Stone weapons and Skaven Magic leaves their direct combat abilities extremely weak.”

”They succeed in assassinations purely because they infiltrate other factions, taking advantage of a lapse in defense to succeed. With your intelligence guidance, our territory is on full alert. Even without Marshal Oerstein’s ambush, these Rat People ramming into our well-prepared defenses won’t stand a chance.”

”If they really need to engage in melee combat, once exposed in the study, even I am confident enough to chop down a Divine Chosen level Rat Assassin.”

”Exactly.” Freya nodded and said, ”There are 7 Champion-level Knights in the corridor outside. If the Rat People want to fight their way in, they might not even touch the threshold before being wiped out.”

This was her strong confidence as a Knight; no matter what formidable enemy they faced, they feared no challenge and dared to draw their swords.

In a narrow encounter, the brave wins. This is precisely what the Rat People aren’t good at.

While they were talking, the sound of barking suddenly erupted inside the castle.

Avril’s eyes suddenly lit up, and she said to Su Li, ”Lord, it’s Jin Ya’s voice.”

Jin Ya is Su Li’s Lion Mastiff Beast. In more than half a year, even through natural growth, this golden Lion Mastiff Beast had become very mighty and robust, capable of taking up patrol duties in the castle. There had already been several instances of Ranger Knights and Free Mercenaries entering the castle getting bitten by it.

Any unfamiliar scent entering the territory couldn’t escape its nose.

Jin Ya’s violent barking promptly opened the curtain on the night’s tense and bloody prelude, and intense barking soon echoed from the direction of the bathroom.

This was Marshal Oerstein’s battle pet, the mustache-hardened territory Commander-in-Chief, who always appeared with a Warhammer along with his powerful battle pet, the Lion Mastiff Beast.

As the sound of barking rang out within the bathroom, a brilliant golden light burst forth, a blazing brilliance, like a Fiery Sun rising under the night sky beneath the castle, its circular glow illuminating several hundred meters around.

Then the Half Griffin’s clear screech echoed throughout the castle, and a massive silhouette emerged accompanied by the dazzling golden light, blocking all retreat paths from the bathroom passage.

Seeing this imposing, powerful Divine General figure, the Knights patrolling inside the castle immediately cheered, and cheers from all directions quickly resonated to the sky. Regiment upon regiment of Iron Armored Knights, raising Vermilion Banners, swiftly surrounded the bathroom from all corners of the castle.

Freya stood by the window, looking toward the fiercely battled battlefield in the distance, her right fist tightened in exhilaration, and said, ”Great, the ambush succeeded.”

Before she finished speaking, the outer wall of the bathroom was blown apart, and a pitch-black figure shot out from inside like a cannonball, accompanied by a spray of blood that dyed the night sky scarlet.

Dorglin, seeing this, immediately raised the ancient relic he held, the Surveyor’s sniper telescope, and shouted, ”Snipers, volley!”

Over a hundred Thunderous Firearms fired simultaneously, white smoke enveloped the entire field, and a barrage of bullets bore through the Rat People’s carcass.

However, the target showed no reaction because it was nothing more than whipping a corpse! The golden Warhammer had already smashed through the monster’s entire chest; all its internal organs were pulverized, and broken bones pierced its back, leaving its fur full of holes, utterly lifeless.

Simultaneously, the torn wall revealed a bright light, allowing Su Li to gaze through the skeleton at the scene inside.

But what he saw through the telescope left him astonished. Inside the expansive bathroom, there were numerous Rat People, yet they assumed a defensive stance with the Aisin Sorcerer, holding a Brass Bell Staff, hiding in a corner of the bathroom. Two Rat Divine Chosen level Assassins, holding daggers with both hands, crouched defensively before him.

Oerstein’s battle pet Lion Mastiff Beast was taut in the limbs, barking crazily at the three rats, ready to leap and bite through the Rat People’s throats at any moment.

Clad in Vibranium Rune Armor, Oerstein advanced slowly towards the monster with a blood-dripping Warhammer. Facing his towering figure, the Rat People couldn’t utilize their Unstoppable trait, attempting to queue out through a pipe. The two Rat Assassins fixed their gaze on him cautiously, retreating step by step.

In fact, the battle had already raged for a while, even before Su Li discerned this scene. The Rat People weren’t initially in a defensive stance; they had tried a fierce assault, aiming to take down this isolated Knight.

The three Assassins launched an attack on Oerstein, while Aisin Sorcerer was chased around the room by the Lion Mastiff Beast, and its tail was bitten off.

But what terrified them was that multiple assassination attempts failed to yield results. This valiant Knight didn’t dodge or evade; renowned for defense, his attacks were even more ferocious than the Assassin’s, exchanging a grave injury on himself to take down a Rat Assassin by force.
