Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 1162 - 1092: Blasted into a Sieve (Part 2)

As they shouted on one side, at the same time they quickly stood up and swarmed towards the outside.
Their footsteps were fast, and those close to the gate had already touched the door with their hands.
Just as they were about to open the door and rush out, suddenly a series of banging noises resounded in everyone’s ears.
Immediately following was the sight of blood mist spraying directly onto the wooden door.
Then, those at the very front fell to the ground like mud, piling up sideways and blocking the doorway more than half a meter high.
This situation caught everyone off guard and was completely unexpected; the enemy could carry out a massacre so quickly was something they never dared to imagine.
In their view, even if the opponent was powerful, it was still just one person, and if they rushed out together, there would always be a chance to escape.
But in this current situation, Lin Yi quickly cleared a space at the doorway, and this space became an area they dared not step over.
Those people stood less than three meters from the doorway, yet ten or more were lying there haphazardly, making them too afraid to move another step forward.
They feared that if they took just one more step forward, they would fall just like those people, and the commotion here quickly drew attention from outside.
In an instant, they heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside, suggesting that the soldiers outside had rushed to the door, and at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from outside.
"General, may I ask what is happening inside?"
Listening to the voice outside, they even saw the sporadic shadows of people outside.
But none of them dared to make a single sound, fearing they would end up like their companions lying on the ground after making any noise.
Originally, they weren’t too fearful of Lin Yi, just acknowledging his formidable strength, but now it’s different; he showed he could eliminate them all in an instant.
The ten princes were now down to less than six standing, and of course, the one who previously agreed to negotiate with Lin Yi and cede land was also standing there.
He listened to the shouting outside and watched the figures outside, really wanting to shout out, telling them to rush in, but now he really dared not, considering what Lin Yi just demonstrated surpassed his imagination.
Now, he could only hope that the outside troops would break in after detecting something amiss.
So if all the soldiers rushed in, perhaps he could truly be saved.
What Lin Yi didn’t know was that this guy was clearly being groomed as King Yan’s successor, excelling in both civil and military affairs.
This time, he was sent to the front line to earn military merit.
After all, they thought this mission was just an easy gain for military glory.
Two countries joining forces to attack another country; what’s there to worry about?
But never could they have imagined such a scene as the one at hand.
Honestly, he’s deeply regreting coming to this troubled place, wishing he hadn’t since, though he wouldn’t gain military merit, he wouldn’t be in this dire situation either.
Amidst this tense atmosphere, while Lin Yi continued to watch them smilingly, the fellow outside spoke again.
"General, may I ask what is happening inside? If there’s no answer, I shall boldly enter."
As he said this, Lin Yi already noticed shadows flickering as they quietly approached the outside of the door.
The prince, seeing this, had hopeful eyes, which Lin Yi noticed, understanding that he was highly expecting his people to break in, hoping for his rescue.
But Lin Yi just wore a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
With his skills, what does it matter if they rush in?
As long as a main force doesn’t surround and hold him down, the opponent won’t escape.
In this atmosphere, the door was suddenly kicked hard, immediately swinging open, followed by an armored figure leading tens of soldiers wielding large blades, pouring in.
As they stepped inside, they immediately saw those individuals on the ground.
This sight instantly widened their eyes in disbelief at these people on the floor, who were high-ranking generals or even some of today’s princes.
How could such people have fallen to the ground like this? No wonder they were shocked.
However, as they stood in shock, hesitant to step on those on the ground, the sound of puffing suddenly echoed.
Next, they felt a strong force hit them, collapsing onto the ground like a pile of mud.
In just an instant, the doorway had piled over a meter high.
Everyone’s initial hope was instantly shattered, drawing obvious attention from more people behind, with soldiers hurriedly stopping, some even raising large wooden shields.
Seeing this, the prince secretly rejoices, thinking these people are smart, hoping the shields might work wonders.
If those dull soldiers charge in and shield them, they might escape today’s danger.
However, just as shield-bearing soldiers reached the door, preparing to rush in, they heard the puffing sound again, watching the wooden shields burst with fragments.
Then they saw the wooden shield become a sieve.
Soldiers behind the shield were knocked over by the force, the shield collapsing behind them.
This once again plunged them into panic, causing more chaos among those outside.
They looked at their fallen comrades, spewing blood from the mouth, in disbelief.
Especially that sieve-like wooden shield, considered top-tier, could withstand a Cloud-piercing Crossbow barely penetrating halfway.
Transfixing it entirely was unrealistic, yet here they saw a shield full of holes with no crossbow arrows in sight. What divine weapon could do this?
This made everyone freeze, not daring to move forward, lest they meet the same fate.
Even a slim hope urges them onward, but in this knowing-sure-death situation, no one willingly advances.
The key point is those generals were inside; without their urging, these people wouldn’t voluntarily risk their lives.
So quickly, countless soldiers gathered in the yard, surrounding it impenetrably.
Eventually, someone even summoned the archery camp.
