Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: The Raiders Finally Came

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

A job change.

The value of Su Mu’s strength had increased from 61 points to 80 points, a total of 19 points!

Plus those four splendid elite skills and a full set of equipment…

“Ah!”

“Su Mu, you’re so strong!”

“I’m going to be rich!”

Avril was overjoyed.

No wonder Avril had such a reaction.

The basic combat strength of the basic units was 15 points. The basic combat strength of the advanced units was 20 points while the basic combat strength of the elite units was 35 points. According to this rule, even the special units above the elite units only had a basic combat strength of 50 points.

As for Su Mu?

While only being an elite unit, Su Mu had a combat strength of 80 points!

It far surpassed the level of special units!

It could be said that at this moment, Su Mu, who was only an elite unit but had a combat power of 80 points, was absolutely invincible!

Avril had never been as confident as she was now.

Apart from that, Avril also found that Su Mu’s favorability toward her had reached 45 points!

For a moment, Avril felt as if she was drunk. She was dizzy and a little lost.

Looking at Avril’s excited little face, Su Mu couldn’t help but pat her dizzy little head. Su Mu chuckled and said, “I’m back. We still have things to do next.”

At this moment…

A villager rushed in to report.

“General Su Mu, it’s bad. The raiders are here!”

“Raiders? They’re here just in time!”

When Su Mu heard that the raiders were here, he chuckled, and a confident light flashed in his eyes.

If it was before the job change, Su Mu would more or less be a little worried.

But now, Su Mu was very confident!

One had to know that previously, Su Mu’s strength was probably on par with the leader of the raiders. As for the others, Su Mu couldn’t care less.

But now, Su Mu’s strength had broken through rapidly.

Su Mu now had the ability to fight with the leader of the raiders who was the enemy.

‘Clatter!’

Su Mu picked up his weapon and quickly followed the people who came to report to the village.

Once Su Mu reached the village entrance…

Su Mu came to his soldiers’ side and saw that they were fully armed and ready for battle. Su Mu was quite satisfied.

In the past two days, Su Mu had already set up layers of walls and several watchtowers around the village through reasonable planning.

These soldiers were basically able to use them after their own training.

Most of them were militiamen who had just received training and couldn’t even hold their weapons properly. Only about twenty of them had received Su Mu’s system training and had become soldiers.

However, even though they were outnumbered, Su Mu’s side wasn’t afraid of them at all with the help of the walls and watchtowers.

“General, these raiders are here. Do we really not need to ask the county for reinforcements?”

Yale’s expression was very grave as he observed the outside situation.

At first, Yale also felt that Su Mu’s actions were a bit risky and might attract the raiders.

After all, there were many raiders, and each of them was extremely vicious. No one on Yale’s side had this strength.

But then again, Yale admits that Su Mu’s cultivation is indeed very fast. Su Mu started from an ordinary villager and became an unfathomable force right now.

Nevertheless…Su Mu had only started cultivating for less than a week!

Therefore, Yale still felt that it was most appropriate to ask the county for reinforcements just in case.

“No need, we can rely on ourselves!”

Su Mu chuckled and walked up to the watchtower personally.

Su Mu looked at the raiders outside. The person in the lead had a full beard and was big and burly. He held a broadsword and had the strength of a general.

Su Mu thought that the person in the lead was the leader of the raiders on the opposite side.

As for the remaining raiders, they were all scared away because of the fire. They didn’t even have time to put on their clothes.

This time, they looked like starving people.

Su Mu had even less reason to be afraid!

“Be ready to defend at any time. If the leader of the raiders charges over, just hand him over to me!”

Su Mu stared at the leader of the raiders. His fighting spirit was burning.

On the side of the raiders…

Hank led the remaining fifty to sixty raiders to loot three villages and finally found Chang’an Village!

Chang’an Village was different from other villages. It was extremely rich, and there were several layers of walls outside.

Moreover, there were layers of wheel tracks outside the village.

Obviously, all of that had happened was related to this village.

Hank was now more or less certain that the culprit who caused his stronghold to be burned and made him end up in such a sorry state…

Was hiding in the village!

“Boss, should we go in now?”

The skinny and short Sandy stood beside Hank and asked with his head stuck out.

“Wait, let’s see what the situation is like in this village first.”

After a few days and nights of thinking, Hank had become much calmer.

Hank also knew that his impulsiveness might cause irreparable losses.

For example, the defense of the other party’s territory was obviously set up against him.

Outside the wall, there were many pits dug.

It was as if they knew that Hank would come knocking!

“Who is your general? Come out and speak!”

Hank walked out from the raiders and shouted at the territory.

“I am Su Mu. May I ask which hero you are?”

Su Mu chuckled and also stepped out.

This was the so-called etiquette before the war.

Before the battle, Su Mu also wanted to know the true background of these raiders so that they could die a proper death.

“I don’t dare to be called a hero. I am the master of Bloody Claw Village, Hank.”

Hank had a strong back and a well-built waist. He straightened his body and slowly walked forward.

Hank looked at Su Mu in the village. Su Mu was as calm as the clouds and light as the wind. Hank could not see clearly what was real and what was not.

However, Su Mu carried a long spear on his back and a long black blade on his left. It seemed to be a weapon that was not inferior to Hank’s!

Suddenly, Hank’s evaluation of Su Mu was—

This person was not simple!

Immediately after, Hank secretly turned around and spoke to the underling behind him.

“When the fight starts later, leave this person to me. You guys can just rush in and kill the others.”

Hank knew that he would definitely not be able to leave Su Mu to his underling.

For a character like Su Mu, only Hank could defeat him.

If Hank couldn’t even defeat Su Mu, then it would be even more impossible for his underling!

“I see. May I know why the master is here?”

Su Mu pretended to laugh and asked, making it appear he didn’t know what happened.

“You don’t know why I’m here?”

“You want to live after stealing from my Bloody Claw Village?”

Hank snorted coldly and was furious.

Basically, all the evidence pointed to Su Mu as the mastermind behind everything.

However, the person in front of Hank was still pretending to be foolish, which made him feel really aggrieved.

“Oh? Who said that your things are yours? Didn’t you steal these things from the homes of ordinary people?”

Su Mu sneered and held the long spear in his hand tightly, ready to fight at any time.

“It seems that you also admit that you did it!”

Hank also sneered. He was so angry that his beard trembled.

In the next moment, Hank took out his broadsword, pointed at Su Mu, and snorted.

“Brothers! Kill them all. After we kill our way in, slaughter all the men, and leave the women for us to satisfy our cravings!”

After saying this…

The mountain raiders suddenly engaged in combat. The aura of the defeated soldiers changed to a fierce one, and their eyes revealed a lecherous glint.

“Kill! The boss is here. Let’s go in and steal three or four motherf*cking women!”

“If these people dare to steal our things, then let’s go and snatch their women!”

“That’s right, kill them all!”

For a moment, the mountain raiders rushed forward in a mess.

Forty to fifty people were in a large group, and their combat strength could not be underestimated.

“Everyone, listen to my orders and prepare to release the arrows!”

Su Mu took a look and gave an order.

Su Mu also took out the longbow that he had been carrying on his back and aimed it at the leader on the opposite side.

Soldiers opposing soldiers, generals opposing generals.

All of a sudden, the blades were drawn, and the weapons crossed..
