"So we tried to think of ways to eliminate them... But we were helpless. We couldn't do it. You see those guys with their upper bodies exposed and not wearing any armor... That's because the skin of these guys is extremely hard... Ordinary weapons can't be used at all. You can't hit them... There's nothing you can do about those arrows and crossbows... Unless it's a musket, it will cause some damage to them... So the militias in the general area and the villagers who use farm tools can't hurt them at all... And And these guys are quite powerful... Even though the leader is holding a seemingly inconspicuous bone rod in his hand... but that bone rod is quite heavy... at least several hundred kilograms... . This weight is already very difficult for us humans to hold... let alone holding it and swinging it in combat... It is simply incredible..."
She nodded. . Only then did I understand. . . It turns out these guys are quite capable. . .
The president of the Thieves Professional Guild continued: "On the other side of our continent are the places where barbarians and elves live... The barbarians can be regarded as enhanced human beings... and the cannibals can be regarded as... The strengthened barbarians... are quite powerful..."
"The strengthened barbarians..." she murmured. . . Because she is so young. . Daily experience rarely goes outside the scope of the Holy Light Empire. . Not to mention the barbarians on the other side of the continent. . .
"Woo...Woo..." Suddenly behind these cannibals. . Some tribesmen blew horns made of animal bones. . . And this is their signal to attack. . .
The cannibal who took the lead rushed out first. . . The giant wolf under his crotch jumped out from the mouth of the valley. . At the same time, the cannibals behind him also rushed out. . . Looking at the huge number of people, there must be at least about 7,000 people. .
These guys rushed over quickly. . . I didn't realize it until I got close. . . Just look at it from a distance and you are already very tall. . . Wait until you are closer now. . . Taller. . .
Especially the giant wolf of the cannibal leader. . . It was already almost taller than the knight in golden armor of the royal guard riding on the horse. . Not to mention there's a 2-meter-tall cannibal sitting on it. .
These cannibals rushed over quickly. . Don't look at how tall they are. . The limbs are stout. . . But not simple-minded at all. . .
They had been watching from the valley side just now. . . Because they are here as a surprise force to support the undead tribe. . It is impossible for the undead tribe to reveal all their trump cards at the beginning. . .
And these cannibals also saw the entire incident. . . Especially when they discovered that the king of Holy Light City was actually there. . . This cannibal leader was filled with hatred. . . I even want to rush out now. . He directly devoured the king of the Holy Light Empire alive. . .
Because these cannibals live around the Holy Light Empire. . . They would also often harass the villages on the border of the Holy Light Empire. . . Originally, the villagers and militiamen had nothing to do with them. . . Either run away or become their food. .
But later the king of the Holy Light Empire was determined to eradicate these cannibals. . . So a lot of royal guards were sent directly. .
These Royal Guardsmen can be said to have extraordinary strength. . And their combat effectiveness and tactics are far beyond what civilians and militiamen can match. . . What's even worse is. . They are well equipped. . . The weapons in the hands of these black-armored knights can not only break through their animal bone weapons. . Also cut open their proud skin. . .
And it has caused a situation of crushing the villagers and militia all year round. . It also makes them start to think that humans are weak. . Very easy to get. . As a result, I suffered a big loss the first time I met. . lost heavily. . .
And although they cannibals are very powerful. . But it's not without its weaknesses. . . Their weakness is that the cannibals have a relatively low fertility rate. . Generally, one child means one child. . Very few can give birth to two at the same time. . . Those with three are even rarer. . . . Moreover, the cannibals were very weak when they were first born. . If you want to grow into a strong and capable adult. . It will take at least thirty years. . . And if humans train a black-armored knight from an early age. . Basically, one can be trained in seventeen or eighteen years. . . It seems like this. . . Humans are nearly twice as fast as cannibals. . And the population base of cannibals is also very small. . Compared with a huge empire like the Holy Light Empire. . . At most they are a tribe. . . The gap between empire and tribe. . . it goes without saying. . .
Therefore, these cannibals are constantly running into obstacles in the Holy Light Empire. . . They discovered that these humans were very clever in their tactics. . . And these human villages were transformed by these black-armored knights. . A village that usually has little defense. . It was transformed into a fortified city. . Tall city walls. . Thick city gate. . . And there are machines invented by humans on the city walls. . .
The crossbows, cannonballs, flame balls, etc. emitted from these machines. . They are all huge. . Basically, cannibals will die immediately if they come into contact with them. . .
This caused these cannibals to suffer a huge blow. . . Because they have always believed that these human villages are rich in products. . Grain, meat, livestock, including these people, are their constant sources of food. . So they feel like they're relying on a giant granary. . Inexhaustible. . .
Now the Royal Guard arrives. . After these changes. . . It can be regarded as directly cutting off their food source. . . And there are mountains all around. . How many animals can there be in this? . for them to eat. . . And they don’t know how to sow. . . Nor will they raise those livestock. . Even for food, there are only some simple storage methods. . . It can be left for ten days and a half at most. . . In the past, it was snatched away when it was gone. . There is no way to snatch it now. . . So their food was finished quickly. .
You must know that these cannibals are all tall and powerful. . . The food a cannibal needs every day. . . It can meet the amount of food required by three ordinary humans for a day. . And they also domesticated so many wolves as mounts. . . The appetite of those giant wolves is even more astonishing. . . One giant wolf can almost catch up with the food intake of two cannibals. . . Otherwise, it would be impossible to carry the 2-meter-plus cannibals on their backs and fly away. .
】
The short time is okay. . These cannibals can also use some of their own food reserves to support one. . But it won’t work after a long time. . . No matter if he is a human or an animal. . . As long as you are a living creature, you have to eat. . No one can stand being hungry. . .
So under hunger. . Naturally, these cannibals couldn't stand it. . So under the leadership of the clan leader, they launched an attack on a small border town of the Holy Light Empire that was closest to them. . . They must plunder enough food. . . Otherwise, not only they themselves will not be able to survive. . Even some of their newborn children did not survive. .
