That protagonist is trash; I could do better!

"Is there a solution?"

Hall shook his head: "It's difficult."

If it were just the Warcraft front, Hall was confident he could break the deadlock, no matter what the opponent wanted to do.

Hall's only concern was the weapon created by the gods—Enkidu.

To be more specific, it is Kingu who has taken over Enkidu's body and can still unleash his full power.

In his presence, Hall would have a hard time protecting himself, let alone taking the fugitives with him.

This can be considered setting a flag.

Hall smiled bitterly to himself, already having a strong premonition that he would encounter Jingu.

What would take an ordinary person half a day to travel, a soldier equipped with military gear could reach in just over an hour. At this point, the northern high ground was only separated by a river.

Mesopotamia translates to "between two rivers," with the Tigris River on the right and the Euphrates River on the left.

The Euphrates River was the only river Hall and his party needed to cross.

Leonidas I looked at the Euphrates River. Although he could see the opposite bank, it was not a small river. "It is indeed wide. It is the flood season now. The soldiers are doing well. Ordinary exiles would probably have a hard time crossing the Euphrates without any tools."

Hall looked at the high platform on the opposite bank of the river, which resembled a small mountain that had been cut in half. With his super long-range vision, he could clearly see a few scattered magical beasts struggling to climb it, while the fugitives on the platform brought stones and threw them down.

The fugitives were probably driven there by monsters...

Turning his gaze away, Hall thoughtfully looked at the Euphrates River before him, then removed the elemental ring from his right hand and tossed it into the water.

"What are you doing?"

"Let's move on to the insurance measures."

Leonidas I led his soldiers across the Euphrates River. Although the river appeared calm on the surface, it was actually turbulent with strong currents, and the water level reached as high as two meters in several places.

It was hardly an obstacle for soldiers equipped with sergeant-level weapons.

As soon as they crossed the river, monsters spotted Hall and his group on the flat ground ahead and charged towards them menacingly.

Each of these magical beasts was far more ferocious and terrifying than lions or tigers.

Leonidas I raised his spear high and commanded in a loud and imposing voice: "Enemy attack! Don't panic. Use the skills and mindset you learned in training. Form groups of three for now! Remember, protecting your teammates is more important than killing the enemy. Companions and strength are the best weapons to protect yourself on the battlefield!"

"Whoa whoa!"

The soldiers rushed forward, but seeing the surging monsters, they hesitated and wanted to retreat.

"It's coming!"

"I never thought I'd actually have to face monsters."

"Yes, without the protection of the North Wall facilities, under normal circumstances, if we faced them, our bodies would probably be torn to pieces."

"Remember Commander Leonidas's teachings! Victory is certain!"

"How do I take out the weapons...?"

"kill!"

As the first soldier charged, the rest of the soldiers followed suit.

Leonidas I, holding a spear, nodded to Hall and said, "I will go forward to oversee the battle and prevent any unforeseen events."

Hall nodded. There were fewer than ten magical beasts left. If there were any more casualties, the soldiers of Uruk might as well go back to farming.

The armor's abilities were integrated with the soldiers' consciousness, allowing them to use it as easily as their limbs. The soldiers quickly found a way to deal with the monsters.

"Third squad! Watch out for that monster's mouth. It can breathe fire, but it needs time to charge up. Watch for the right moment!"

"First squad, the monster you're dealing with is fast but has poor stamina. Don't give it a chance to rest; block its escape route."

"Oni! What are you doing!"

Leonidas I stared in astonishment as a soldier was being bitten in the mouth of a monster. Because the monster's fangs could not penetrate the armor for the time being, the monster shook its head violently. The two soldiers next to him watched this scene and dared not attack easily.

The unfortunate soldier, caught in the bite, cried out in despair, "Report...report! I've been bitten!"

"The more dangerous the situation, the more you need to stay calm, Oni. The monster won't be able to tear through your armor anytime soon, so what are you going to do?! Those two over there, watching their companion get into danger, what can you do?"

"Yes!"

The soldier who was bitten quickly reached out, flicked out a sharp blade, and stabbed it directly into the monster's eye.

Swish!

Blood splattered.

"Awooo! Awooo!!"

The monster, in pain, staggered backward, spitting out the soldier from its mouth.

"Let's go!"

The two soldiers who were watching seized the opportunity, extended their arm blades and severed the monster's legs, then disemboweled it the moment it fell.

"Hmph, finally looking more like a Spartan soldier."

Leonidas I nodded in satisfaction and continued to stand to one side to direct the troops, ordering them not to kill the monster immediately, but to observe it, dodge its attacks, and find a way to deal with it.

Five minutes later, the dozen or so poor monsters were exhausted and unable to move before the soldiers dealt with them by hand.

"Oh oh oh!"

"We really defeated the monster!"

"We won!"

"We are Sparta!"

The soldiers raised their arms and shouted, their morale soaring.

Hearing the soldiers' cheers, Hall couldn't help but laugh. Leonidas I not only cultivated his soldiers' sense of cooperation and combat skills, but he could even cultivate their confidence. He truly deserved to be called the King of Sparta and the originator of Spartan education.

The style of the soldier's armor is based on this, but of course it won't be as high-end and stylish as the picture.

It belongs to the miscellaneous soldier category.

As for the figure in the picture, it is suspected to be Zeus.

This type of armor exists in ancient Greek mythology.

It's not too much to say that Mesopotamia should have the same system.

Chapter 362 Fearless Men

Leonidas I led his troops to clear out the scattered groups of monsters near the Northern High Platform. The soldiers went from being timid at the beginning to becoming skilled and their cooperation became closer. What used to require three soldiers to defeat a monster could now be eliminated by two soldiers without any damage.

Soldiers equipped with the new armor possessed abilities comparable to those of magical beasts, so Leonidas I set a goal that a soldier could eliminate the three-headed beast without taking any damage.

In Hall's original design, the combat power of a soldier was equivalent to that of an ordinary magical beast, which makes one sigh that Sparta was not some kind of demon.

As they approached the northern high platform, the refugees on the mountain also noticed this squad of black soldiers. Regardless of the soldiers' identities, the fact that they were human made them more trustworthy than those man-eating monsters.

Hall stood at the foot of the cliff, looking up at the high platform to the north, estimating the distance from the ground to the mountaintop.

On the mountain, the fugitives are waving at Hall.

Leonidas I returned with his troops.

"Has everything been resolved?"

Leonidas I, still unsatisfied, said, "Too few! Not nearly enough. We need at least two hundred more magical beasts to conduct a single combat exercise!"

"There will be plenty of opportunities later, just step back a bit."

What are you going to do?

"You'll see when you see it."

Leonidas I did not linger and ordered his soldiers to retreat.

Hall clapped his hands and placed them on the cliff in front of him. The transmutation array instantly unfolded, and blue magical energy resembling electric arcs overflowed and covered the entire Northern High Platform.

Rumble~

The earth trembled slightly, and the soil and rocks of the cliff collapsed inward, quickly creating a wide staircase leading to the top of the mountain.

“I see. Modifying the terrain makes it easier for the escapees to come down, so we don’t have to go up to meet them. Magic is indeed convenient,” Leonidas I said with an envious tone.

On the high platform to the north, the fugitives were stunned by this scene that seemed like a miracle.

"what happened?"

"A staircase appeared out of the mountain!"

"Those people must be soldiers from Uruk, why are they wearing such strange armor?"

"No matter what, it's better than being eaten by monsters."

"Go down."

Click~ Click~

The rocks trembled, startling the fleeing people, who quickly moved away.

The rock transformed into Hall's likeness and revealed its identity: "We are soldiers sent by King Gilgamesh to rescue you. This place is not safe; please evacuate as soon as possible."

The fugitives breathed a sigh of relief: "It really was reinforcements sent by Uruk City!"

"Great!"

The fugitives hesitated for a moment, but then descended the stairs Hall had created.

More than half an hour later, Hall and his group officially met up with the fugitives. Most of the fugitives were children and women; the elderly and men had basically lost their lives on the way, creating an opportunity for them to escape.

Originally a group of over a thousand people, only a third remained when they reached the North High Platform. Just as Hall had suspected, this group of fugitives paid the price of over a hundred lives to reach the North High Platform.

They were deliberately driven there by the monsters.

"Hurry up! No need for baggage! No need for food either, unless you want to become food for monsters!"

"There is enough food in Uruk!"

"Don't panic, keep going, keep running!"

The soldiers on the north wall organized the deserters to retire and withdraw.
