Chapter 522: Knights Are Enough
"Hurry, hurry, carry him into the sanctuary tent, he is dying!"
A group of people carrying the wounded ran past Muller quickly. Muller watched the scene quietly, feeling anxious but unable to do anything.
The adjutant touched Muller lightly, and Muller came to his senses and continued to move forward.
Muller returned to the castle and sat on a stone tiredly. Two soldiers helped him take off his armor and handed him a clean face towel.
Mueller numbly wiped the sweat from his face and picked away the sand from the corners of his eyes with his fingers. When he looked up, he found that Li was already standing in front of him.
"You don't look good."
Compared to when he had slashed Lee with his sword, Mueller now looked weak and helpless.
Muller's weakness was not physical but mental.
"It's none of your business. Aren't you here for sightseeing? Now you can go see the sea."
The war between demons and humans does not happen all the time.
The human race needs to cultivate itself, and so do the demons.
Whether it is the potion that transforms demons or the reproduction of demons themselves, it takes time.
Therefore, the war between the two sides is like the monsoon, occurring only once in a while.
Today, a battle of a slightly larger scale ended, and the demons will not run to the coast again for a short time.
"Oh, I will go, but I have to go to the wounded camp first."
After saying hello to Muller, Li walked towards the wounded soldiers' camp.
There was a large military tent with the temple symbol painted on it, and inside, clergymen were treating the wounded.
When Muller discovered that Li was going that way, he instantly lost his composure.
Mueller threw the face towel to the soldier and raised his foot to stop Li.
Li dodged to the side, bypassed Muller and continued forward.
"Weiser Lee! No, I won't let you attack my soldiers!"
Muller's behavior of stopping Lee attracted a lot of people's attention. Lee grabbed Muller and dragged him into the tent.
Inside the tents, the seriously wounded were struggling in pain, and a large number of them had already lost consciousness and were just bleeding silently.
Two priests were performing an exorcism on the dead soldiers. They were a little surprised to see Mueller and Lee suddenly break in.
"you…"
"Please ask the two clergymen to go and help the lightly injured first."
The holy light of the priest can only be used for minor injuries, and those with serious injuries can basically just wait for death.
It makes little difference whether there is a clergyman in the military tent or not.
The priest saluted to Muller and then left obediently. In this port city, Muller is the man who has the final say.
In the room filled with the smell of blood, Mueller and Li confronted each other tensely.
"Weiser Lee, I know your abilities, but don't try to use your evil power on my soldiers!"
"A gentleman doesn't take another's favorite rose."
Li patted his father-in-law on the shoulder and pushed him to sit on the empty bed next to him.
"Your Excellency, I don't want these brave warriors to sleep forever."
Magical power surged in Li's hand, and when it touched the dead warrior, the other party immediately opened his eyes.
Seeing how easily Lee resurrected someone who was supposed to be dead, Mueller was stunned.
"Don't worry, I won't use magic to control you. You fought to protect the kingdom. You are heroes."
Several soldiers who had already died sat up inexplicably, and the soldiers next to them who had not yet died were almost frightened to death when they saw this scene.
Li cast magic several times to heal the seriously injured soldiers. After confirming that no one in the tent was in danger of life, Li walked out of the tent with ease.
Mueller and the resurrected soldiers stared at each other. After a while, Mueller gave the soldiers an order.
"Don't tell anyone what happened today!"
"Yes!"
Mueller arranged for his confidants to transfer the soldiers in the camp. After doing this, Mueller immediately went to find Lee.
With the guidance of other soldiers, Mueller found Lee.
Li Zheng stood in the courtyard, staring in a daze at the piles of supplies in front of him.
"Weize Li, I want to thank you for curing them, but please do not use this evil power of yours again..."
"General! Why don't you use these things!"
Lee interrupted Mueller's spending and pointed at the pile of supplies in front of him.
Mueller was confused by Lee's rebuke and he couldn't understand why Lee was angry.
"What happened to these things?"
"You're asking me what's wrong! The kingdom clearly provided you with material support, why didn't you use it? Why did you insist on fighting with those outdated and broken equipment?"
When Li saw that no one paid attention to the weapons, he was almost angry to death by these stubborn knights.
"I've asked them. A few months ago, the kingdom started sending new weapons here. But you just left them out in the open to dry instead of using them. You and the demons will both suffer losses. You've asked for it!"
Li suddenly exploded, and his outburst was so shocking.
Muller was a little frightened by Li's momentum, but when he thought that he was his elder and the general of the port city, Muller stood up again.
"What are you talking about these shabby weapons? What's the use of these things? They are like fire sticks. The attacks they release are not as effective as the apprentice mage's fireballs!"
Muller had naturally tried the ray gun sent from the royal capital, but that weak attack was not taken seriously by Muller at all.
It takes several shots to break a wooden target. Such a weapon is not as useful as a sword.
Li slapped his head and was speechless by Mueller's attitude.
Muller looked at the ray gun with his high-ranking knight's eyes, and of course it was worthless.
But these weapons are for ordinary soldiers. Doesn't Mueller use his brain?
"Ordinary soldiers? Ordinary soldiers need solid armor, sturdy shields and spears, not this kind of garbage that can only shoot small flames!"
"Okay, okay, okay! You are the father-in-law and you are right. What about Yi Tou Bao? These powerful magics must be of some use, right?"
"These are also garbage. They can't be eaten and they take up space. They even blew up a kitchen a few days ago!"
Mueller's first impression of these new gadgets was bad; he thought they were little more than gimmicks.
Things used on the battlefield must be strong and reliable. Muller only trusts elite soldiers who have been trained for many years, as well as solid armor and weapons.
As for the magicians and magical creations, Muller would not have even taken a second look at them if it weren't for the strong defensive effect of the magic tower.
It’s not Muller’s fault for having a rigid mindset, but most of the magicians in the kingdom are rubbish.
The truly powerful magicians would have long since defected to the Eye of Truth and rebelled against the kingdom.
The elemental mages that were trained later lost communication with the elves when they fled the southern continent and became self-contained.
The kingdom hasn't produced a legendary wizard for hundreds of years, and all the wizards are arrogant.
To protect the kingdom, the knights are enough!
This is the understanding of Muller and most of the kingdom's knights.
