Scene 35 Noble Knights From the Empire

The night belongs to those who never sleep. The remaining army of undead advances in the dark. The ridges of the river valleys undulate in the dark like huge beasts. The silent dark forest, the dim meadow and the gravel-strewn The landscape formed by the river beach receded rapidly from both sides of the undead's pale vision. The Blood Wand and its high-ranking Liches were protected in the center of these skeleton riders. It raised its bare skull and looked at the south of the valley. The glimmer of light refracted by the gurgling river outlined the valley in that direction. The narrow shape of the pass, behind which is the outlet to the Silman Valley.

At the mouth of the river valley, there is a quiet camp, similar to all undead military camps, this camp is composed of a lot of bony thorns and a few large black tents, but this camp is empty at the moment Objects, there is no sign of any activity inside. The army of undead stopped under the order of the blood stick. There was originally a group of Lichs stationed here, and they had hundreds of skeleton warriors under them. However, these undead seemed to have disappeared into the air at this moment.

The Blood Staff sent out several scouts, and these scouts came back quickly, and the news they brought back was consistent with what it saw. There was nothing in the camp, and there were no traces of battle.

The blood stick is not a fool, he immediately understood that there was an enemy on the road behind him.

"It found us." Brende let out a sigh of relief in the cold night. There was only sparse light in the rainy night. The blade in his hand was dark and had no reflection.

"It's awareness, not discovery," Alea corrected.

"Almost."

"No, it's much worse. Tactically, being aware of our presence means we've identified our position, but realizing it's just a guess makes a big difference. Blunder, it's not your business to be vague. style."

"you shut up."

Alea wanted to say more, but little Pello also turned around and gave him a look, and said, "Shut up." He opened his mouth, but finally closed his mouth obediently. There was a burst of low laughter in the dark night, and the young Cruz people were obviously used to Alea's deflated appearance.

"Is that the undead?" A female knight asked curiously.

Little Pello glanced at those skeletons from a distance. nodded.

"The empire fought against them on Cree Island. They used to be like this. Those necromancers are doing desecration of corpses on the border of the empire. The temple should have sanctioned them long ago."

"Aren't you afraid?" Alea asked curiously: "I heard that you women are afraid of these skeletons.

"

"Shut up, Alea!" the female knight replied angrily, "Ivory can't come out of a dog's mouth!"

"They're alert, what should we do?" Brende pretended not to see the foolishness of his bad friend, he sat on the saddle, straight as a javelin, and asked without looking aside. It was drizzling in the night, and the military uniform clung to him like wet hair. The gaps in the armor seem to be full of water, which makes people feel very uncomfortable, but it can't shake him at all, just like a model of imperial knights.

"It doesn't matter, this is the only way for them to pass. Your lord Earl fought the battle very well. There are not many of them left. We can just wait here. There is no need to play any tricks with them." Little Pello replied .

"The more complicated the tactics, the easier it is to fail." Brende read like reciting scriptures.

"Doctrinaire." Alaya muttered in a low voice.

The Folding Sword Knights lined up on the river beach a hundred meters away from the undead camp, hundreds of cavalry were silent on the gravel. There are only rows of long cavalry swords left, and pairs of bright light blue eyes full of fighting spirit.

The blood stick quickly found this unusual cavalry, and it was a little stunned, because it thought it would be attacked by a round, but it didn't expect these daring humans to line up in front of it , I want to confront myself head-on. It suddenly felt ashamed. How could such a small group of human cavalry dare to be so arrogant a day ago, but even now, it still has more than a thousand skeleton cavalry in its hands. These human cavalry simply don't take themselves seriously.

The blood staff squeezed the skeleton staff in his hand and rattled. As if feeling the anger beating in its burning soul fire, several necromancer apprentices who followed it quickly reminded him in a low voice that this might be a human trap.

But the Blood Wand shook his head, before it could speak, the dark mercenaries around it let out meaningless laughter.

The blood stick looked at these guys with some annoyance: "No need, this is the only way we have to go, they can just make a surprise attack, there is no need to be so secretive."

"No more than three hundred," the dark mercenaries who started to sneer quickly estimated the number of Cruz knights. Darkness is an ally of the eternal dead. "These humans really don't know how to live or die."

"Send a scout cavalry to test the strength." The blood stick suddenly keenly sensed some danger.

Cruz's young people looked at the small group of skeleton cavalry separated from the undead army, and immediately understood the opponent's plan. Without saying a word, little Pello made a gesture, and ordered Brende to lead a small group of knights to meet them. go up. These folding sword knights are by no means recruits on the battlefield for the first time. Before the life-and-death encounter in the Dead Frost Forest, they had fought against many enemies. These skeletons were just an episode of their military career. Brende soon He intercepted the small group of skeleton cavalry, and then the two sides began to fight. It only took a few minutes to kill the other side, but none of the undead turned around and ran away, which made him slightly surprised and became cautious.

The army of the undead was indeed very different from those opponents he had encountered.

"The strength of the silver level is between the middle and lower reaches." The dark mercenaries from the Dead Moon Sea quickly came to a conclusion. Said.

"I'm afraid there is still hidden strength, which means that Eruin has a fourth-tier cavalry team." Xue Zhang replied in a deep voice: "No wonder he is so arrogant."

Its tone was full of unwillingness, and it felt that it should not have come to Eruin at all. Its understanding of this kingdom in the past was completely subverted in a mere day, and it has not even figured out which elite team surpassed him. How did the imagined human army come about. There shouldn't be such an army in the southern part of the kingdom, and no one has told it. The information it has received from all channels indicates that this is the emptiest moment in the southern part of the kingdom.

but now. However, Xue Zhang faintly sensed that he seemed to have been betrayed.

It is very alert, and already knows in its heart that its road back to Madara may not be so easy, but it still has a chance. It took away all the high-level Lich from the battlefield, which is its most important branch. strength. As long as this foundation is still there, it will have a comeback one day. It came back to its senses, and looked coldly at what it thought was the "Eruin's cavalry" in front of it. Its strength was almost six times that of the opponent. Even if this cavalry was a fourth-tier army, it still had Certain advantages.

"These human beings must understand that the night belongs to the eternal and immortal."

The blood stick lightly waved his skeleton staff, and pointed forward——

The skeleton cavalry began to disperse, and these riders with thick bones and flames dancing in their eyes drove side by side in the river valley. They trotted forward, and soon formed a wedge-shaped attack formation. During the whole process, the entire army hardly made much noise, only the crisp sound of bones and horseshoes falling on the gravel, and the emptiness was so hair-raising. This silent momentum is enough to overwhelm any human army, but the young people of the Knights of the Folding Sword are an exception. They have seen the scene of wolves galloping on the tundra. It's nothing compared to the forest.

"They really came!" Alea even growled excitedly.

"They had to come," Brende replied.

"You guys are really boring."

Little Pello turned around at this time. His eyes swept across everyone's faces: "Master Tonigel told us not to expose our strength above gold, which is related to our main mission of staying here. So you understand how to fight this battle, right?" ?”

"Hi-"

"Hey!" Hearing what little Pello said, there was a sound of sighing in the crowd.

"Then what fun is there, little Pello." Alea couldn't help shouting: "Let's have a good fight, the bones will be rusted!"

"Go and talk to His Royal Highness about this." Little Pello gave him a sideways glance and replied.

Now these young people from Cruz have nothing to say, let them go to bargain with His Highness the eldest son of the emperor. It might as well kill them. Everyone knows that the eldest son of the emperor is very serious, and he is extremely serious on weekdays. He will be about the same age as them next year, but he will seem to be ten years older than them. The key is that behind the eldest son of the emperor, there is the presence of the head of the legion. These young people can dare to ignore the majesty of the royal family. But facing Veronica is like seeing a cat and a mouse.

There was a sudden silence in the knights' phalanx, and little Pello nodded in satisfaction: "Get ready, the first wave of attack."

He raised his hand.

The knights raised their hands together, as if a black forest had suddenly risen.

At this distance, it was difficult for the Blood Wand to see Cruz's movements clearly, but it still noticed the abnormality. The Skeleton Knight had already entered the optimal distance for sprinting, but the opponent still didn't move. What's the reason? Didn't the opposing commander understand that when two cavalrymen meet, whoever runs up first and enters the best attack position will have the upper hand. What's more, the number of cavalry of these Eruins is far smaller than it. In theory, they should take the advantage of flexibility to make a pre-emptive attack to restore the disadvantage in strength, but the opponent seemed to be petrified, standing stupidly There.

Of course, the blood stick will not think that the other party is scared and stupid. How can a commander who can command a fourth-tier army be a fool? It instinctively felt that there was a conspiracy, but it was too late at this time, the army had already started, and it was impossible to stop or turn around.

"What's going on here?" For the first time, it couldn't help asking those rebellious dark mercenaries.

But these experienced tactical masters were also dumbfounded at the moment. They didn't understand what this weird cavalry wanted to do. In the end, it was an old necromancer from the barren territory in the easternmost part of the Dead Moon Sea. Some clues, "They seem to be preparing some spell!" When the necromancer saw this, his voice changed a little, because he didn't see it, but felt the oncoming majestic rush. Magic breath.

Ready for a spell?

Xue Zhang was also dumbfounded. Today he saw infantry archers on horseback and cavalry without horses. I saw a wizard who was used as an archer, but I didn't expect to see a cavalry wizard in armor at the end. "They are wearing armor, full body cavalry armor, you tell me they are preparing spells!" Blood Staff couldn't help but roared angrily.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling light flashed in the phalanx of the Knights of the Folding Sword.

The young Cruz knights held their right hands high, unlike most knights of the knight order. Most of the gloves they wear are not thick iron gloves, but beautiful platinum gloves. The biggest difference between this kind of gloves and ordinary gloves is that the fingers are not connected together. It has an elegant and delicate aesthetic feeling, but except In addition to its own artistic beauty, the biggest advantage of this kind of hand guard is that it can leave a place for the wearer to wear a ring. Of course, they are not ordinary rings, but the so-called little secrets of the witches located on both sides of the magic triangle——

magic ring.

On the fingers of these Cruz youths. It was a beautiful ring inlaid with rubies, flame agates, emeralds, and sapphires, each of which was engraved with countless magic circles with mysterious runes.

If Brando's army is already extremely luxurious in the eyes of Earl Jacques, but compared with these outstanding young people from the Cruz people, it is really a gap between a beggar and a rich man. The young people of the Knights of the Folding Sword Eighty people are descendants of various families in the empire, and the equipment spent on each of them is almost enough to arm an entire knight collar. It seems to be a matter of course, but it is placed in a remote place like Eruin. But it was the first time ever.

The Bloodstaff was fortunate enough to witness how the elite knights of the Cruz flaunted their strength and wealth.

In some ways, it was Madara's first.

...

Arvette was standing next to her war horse, and the gaps in the thick white armor on her body seemed to be filled with raging flames endlessly. Mrs. Wang rarely shows her real face, but today she is rarely seen without a helmet, which reveals a pale face. For a lady, this face is considered beautiful, but it is full of a cold atmosphere; her hair is like a burning phosphorus fire, with silver flames flying from time to time, against the flat forehead without a trace of blood, as slender as a sword A pair of silver pupils were hidden in the deep-set eye sockets under the eyebrows. She was pursing her thin lips at the moment, her cheeks were sunken, and she looked very silent.

She didn't speak, but her eyes sparkled against the distant fire.

Several banshee guards are beside the banshee queen.

"Let's go." After looking at it for a moment, she suddenly turned around, grabbed the saddle and got on the horse's back. The voice of the Banshee Queen was very ethereal, as if singing faintly: "There is nothing to see, the blood stick is over."

"Your Majesty, are you saying that the Eruin defeated the Blood Staff?" a banshee asked sharply.

"Don't call me Your Majesty, Winnie, there is only one Majesty of Madara," Yalvette replied, "It's not surprising that the Eruins defeated the Blood Wand itself. It's just a fool. Instaron played around. The poor guy thought that His Majesty would secretly acquiesce in its behavior—ah, I really admire Tagus, who dares to deal with that guy. People like Instaron, even if you Sometimes you have to help him count the money after selling it.”

Alvette unscrupulously teased the confidantes of several supreme beings in the empire, the banshees made a hissing sound and did not dare to continue to answer.

She took one last look at the flashing light on the other side of the mountain, and said to herself: "But the Eruin did give me a little surprise. See, this is the heritage of this ancient land. Don't underestimate any enemy After thousands of years of precipitation, they have some ingenious knowledge and secrets, which can always bring you surprises. But accidents in war are fatal, and Blood Staff always looks at him with the stupid eyes of the past Opponent, today is a battle of life and death, it will not hold back, how can its enemies be merciful? Ah, the newly promoted dark nobles in the empire can't wait to make achievements in this land, but this time Your Majesty may There is reason to convince them."

"Why should His Majesty care about this little Eruin?"

Yarvette shook her head, and did not refute her personal maid. She knew in her heart that what the Supreme One cared about was not Aruin, but the attitude of the Four Great Temples. Aruin suddenly showed a strong side today , What exactly stands behind it is hard to say. The Earl of Tonigel seems to be related to the wind elves, but the power he holds has traces of the temple. He seems to have emerged out of thin air overnight and possesses powerful forces.

"interesting."

She said softly: "It's kind of interesting."

But there was still one sentence she didn't say, and she even had a faint feeling in her heart that the Eruin army had a faint atmosphere that she felt very familiar with. The Banshee Queen shook her head, muttering in her heart:

"No, it should be very unlikely."
