Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son Chapter 221

Aldred wanted to fight immediately to stretch his muscle, but he wasn't a naive fool anymore. The bugbear's magicians surprised him with their spell-disabling abilities. Who knew what else they had under their sleeves.

To be safe, Aldred had to send his army first to test the water. This was exactly what he did against the 5,000 elite cavalry.

He sent 400 golems first to see their capabilities.

Since town leader Tarrar was so smart, the Folineley City might be in a state of emergency right now.

Aldred stopped speculating and went out to produce more foremen golems and artillery golems.

After a week or so, Aldred sent 4,000 battle golems to Folineley City.

"Stella, can you help me?"

"Sure, darling." She kissed him on the cheek and summoned her magical mirror.

She had a lot of convenient spells that were useful for warfare.

With unlimited mana, the golems tirelessly sprinted along the landscape. After an hour or so, his golem legion appeared in front of Folineley City.

Just as Aldred thought, the city was already in lockdown. No one was allowed to get in or get out. A lot of heavy crossbows, catapults, and other weapons were ready atop the wall, and hundreds of carriages made a formation in front of the gate.

Aldred did not know what was the intention behind that. But the fact that they already prepared for his arrival meant that they had their own means of obtaining information.

Atop the wall, a mysterious particle condensed into a bugbear. It was Tarrar. Apparently, he was a magician.

And seemed to be a powerful one at that.

Tarrar stared at the golem legion. "Golem Master, Aldred. I have heard of your name. It seems like you are a very famous figure. Your myths have spread far and wide. And I am told of your benevolence and generosity in your adventure." He sneered in a sarcastic tone.

Tarrar knew that Aldred was a greedy bastard that would suck the living soul out of people. There was no use in trying to stop him with words. What he could do was anger him and bait him to use all the cards he had.

Warfare was simply a mind game.

One of the golem stepped forward. Its eyes turned red. "Since you know that I am generous, then surrender, and I will let you live under me. I like your competent town-leader Tarrar. Be my subordinates and handle all of my territory."

Tarrar grinned. "You talk like I already lost the battle, Golem Master. Need I remind you that no blood has been shed yet."

"There's no need for blood," Aldred replied. I want you to become my subordinates, but if you think I will mistreat you, you're wrong. I will give you a chunk of my own army for your personal use."

"That offer seems interesting, but I have to apologize. I like being a boss."

"Humph! You're still subordinates to the Platinum Rank. Being subordinates to me is simply changing your boss. Not to mention you will have more benefit."

"We should talk about this after the battle, golem master."

"Right. Let me show you what I can do, and what you can become if you are under me."

"Arrogance. A typical trait of a foolish leader."

"It's called confidence," aldred replied.

Tarrar laughed. "We'll see about that."

Aldred smiled coldly. "Attack!"

1,400 gunner golems took a thundering step and blasted all the soldiers atop the wall with bullets.

In the meantime, 400 out of 2,000 fighter golems rushed forward.

Aldred wanted to test something first.

Numerous bugbear magicians raised their staffs and swung them in the air. Thick magical barrier appeared and blocked all the fire bullets.

Tarrar's men quickly ordered for the crossbow to attack, and they rained arrows upon the fighter golems.

But instead of destroying the golems, they were pinned on the ground.

Smart move, but the golems quickly slashed the 7-meter bolts, and started running forward again.

But then the golems got pinned down again as the heavy crossbow's attack was rapid.

Aldred frowned. "We cannot advance with all of that heavy crossbows on the wall. Artillery golems, attack them!"

All 600 artillery golems sent out a volley of golems shells, and they exploded consecutively.

"Damnit! We cannot hold on anymore!" the magician gritted his teeth and blood leaked out of his nose.

A moment later, the barrier shattered and the golem shells exploded on the soldiers atop the wall.

"Fighter golems, attack!"

Aldred sent another 600, totaling the attacking the fighter golems at 1,000 unit.

"Wet Mud!"

The surviving magicians cast a non-elemental spell that made the ground wet and muddy.

This made the heavy golem's feet sink into the ground, and their movement speed slowed down.

"Attack them!"

"Fiery arrow!"

"Icy Breath!"

"Sharp Tornado!"

"Heavy Weight!"

"Enlargement PP!"

They all looked at the magician who shouted the last spell.

"Not the right time, dude."

"Cough! Cough! My bad."

Tarrar watched the chaotic battlefield, and the ever approaching fighter golems. Those golems might look ordinary from the outside, but the materials inside of them were expensive and rare.

If he sends his infantry unit out and to fight them head on, they will have a very hard time.

Thankfully, he already made a plan to fight against the golem master.

"Send out the sacrificial carriages."

The soldier beside him nodded, and ordered the archers to fire at the bull-like beasts that were strapped to the carriages.

The arrows struck their ass, and these beasts roared before they charged forward.

"Are they planning to crash into the golems with those?" Aldred asked.

"Most likely," Stella replied.

Aldred laughed. "My golems are made out of heavy materials. Those bulls couldn't even make my golems take a single step back."

And it was true.

When the bull-like beast crashed into the golems, they only halted the golems' step, and could not push them even an inch.

But Tarrar wasn't planning to push them backward.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The carriages exploded, and the flames engulfed all the golems.

The bugbear soldiers atop the wall cheered.

Aldred's eyes flashed with disbelief. But his lips moved into a smile. "I want that bugbear to be my subordinate."
