Chapter 480: Swaying Treetops on the North Shore
It is not an easy task for a large army to cross the Miral River, which is one mile wide.
The seventh knight, Cohen, has a similar name to Leon and a similar personality; both hate anything that requires using the brain.
His marching arrangement was very simple. He gathered the arcane spellcasters in the infantry units together and cast a spell to freeze the surface of the Miral River.
In this way, his cavalry could quickly cross the turbulent river and head towards the dense forest.
However, it is still quite difficult to freeze the flowing water in spring.
After chopping off the heads of several wizards, they finally built a frost floating bridge less than a hundred feet wide.
Cohen, who had been unable to contain himself any longer, waved his spear and ordered the cavalry to cross the river.
Just as half of the 5,000-man formation crossed the Miral River, a rumbling sound was heard from the dense forest on the opposite bank.
The scout in charge of observation saw the swaying treetops in the dense forest, and it seemed that some giant creature was approaching him.
"Playing tricks...
The Knights of the Kingdom! Assemble! Form your ranks! "
Cohen's roar echoed throughout the riverbank.
A strange red light flashed under his full-face helmet, and his tone became extremely excited.
“The Kingdom Knights have never been defeated... but Leon, your failure has set a precedent.
I will use the heads of my enemies to wash away your shame.
Of course, if I meet you again, I will chop off your head and put it together with the heads of those elves and gods..."
The red light kept flashing, and the Seventh Knight's body was tense, and the metal spear in his hand made a creaking sound when he squeezed it.
Keon's combat ability is quite strong.
Among all the titled knights, his overt record of battles was the most brilliant.
Five years ago, a mountain dwarf city in the south was unwilling to share its territory and surrendered to the kingdom.
The Seventh Knight, with a thousand cavalrymen, besieged a dwarf city with a population of five thousand.
Those dwarves living in the caves were so stupid that they only left one entrance and exit for themselves.
However, this narrow entrance and exit does not allow the cavalry to play their role.
So, the seventh knight, Cohen, used the spear in his hand to chisel a big hole in the dwarf's metal gate.
He broke into this not-so-big dwarf city and madly slaughtered most of the resistance before the troops behind him could take the city gate.
Therefore, Cohen is very confident in his own strength.
Some members of the Knights Templar even privately believe that he is the most powerful among the titled knights.
The Seventh Knight, who was eager for battle, grinned and licked his white teeth under his helmet.
He was waiting for the rumbling footsteps to approach.
As long as these creatures showed up, the spear in his hand could easily pierce their heads.
But at this moment, several irregular roars were heard amid the rumbling footsteps.
Following closely was the sound of something cutting through the air at high speed.
Keang looked up with some confusion.
Dozens of unidentified black shadows appeared above the dense forest, each of them was only the size of a fist and as thick as an arm.
"How outdated! Can't these elf gods even find stones for catapults?"
A cavalry centurion sneered disdainfully.
Both Cohen and the cavalrymen looked down upon such tiny projectiles.
The next second, as the bullet pierced the ground, a huge explosion instantly swept across the north bank of the Miral River.
Before these cavalrymen had time to react, their eardrums were broken by the roaring sound waves.
The scorching flames raged among the crowd, and the terrifying air waves lifted the cavalrymen and their horses directly into the sky.
In an instant, at least one third of the more than 2,000 cavalrymen were killed.
The rest naturally didn't feel any better.
The frightened horses kept neighing, and the cavalrymen who were still breathing fell to the ground and wailed.
The ground was littered with fragments of severed limbs, and the north bank of the Miral River turned blood red.
The centurion who laughed out loud had his body torn apart by the flying metal fragments.
The head turned several times in the air and landed in front of the mount of the Seventh Knight, Cohen, without having time to change the playful expression on his face.
The red light under Cohen's helmet suddenly went out.
After a while, an even more terrifying red light came out from the gap in the helmet, as if a red searchlight was lit inside.
"Damn it!
Stupid Elf God, you have completely pissed me off!"
The Seventh Knight was very close to the center of the explosion, but the surging air waves could not shake his body at all.
The warhorse under him raised its front hooves high, then slammed heavily to the ground.
At the same time, the spear in Cohen's hand seemed to be aimed at a non-existent enemy, and he made a simple and unpretentious stab towards the gray haze forest.
A swirling red light suddenly appeared.
It was like a high-speed tunnel boring machine drilling a transparent hole through the dense trees in the haze forest.
Behind the hole, a team of druids were standing on a giant tree man and loading ammunition, staring in amazement at the huge oak tree under their feet, half of its body was crushed.
Before setting off, Lord Alvin told the members of the team that the enemy possessed a powerful force that was far beyond the legend.
But this kind of attack, which was completely different from magic and had never been seen before by anyone.
"Monster, monster!"
A human druid belonging to the artillery team looked tremblingly at the knight opposite him who was covered in armor.
The spear that was glowing red was still shaking.
"All treemen start evading! Don't charge forward mindlessly!
Gith warriors, fire freely with your new weapons!
Lin Liya! Lin Liya! Organize your people, don't be distracted!
Continue to reload and carry out the strike as planned!"
Ivan's voice came from the crown of a tree man.
The war between the Kingdom Knights and the Elf Courtyard began.
……
Alduin and his team of frost giants have already reached the Elf Courtyard.
He had already spotted the disheveled human in front of him, but having just dealt with a suit of armor filled with divine power, he had no intention of greeting him.
He is just a high-level priest. No matter how empty the Elf Courtyard is, there is no need for him to take action himself.
It would be better to let the frost giants who can't stand the hot and humid climate take a break and drink some ice water they carry with them.
It won’t be too late to enter the Elf Courtyard once I’ve almost recovered.
But at this moment, a huge explosion suddenly came from the south.
Alduin was all too familiar with that sound.
Alvin and the female elf used weapons that made this kind of sound to kill the wild giants and half-dragon troops rushing down from the Spine of the World.
"So fast?"
The frost giant ancestor frowned in confusion.
But he didn't hesitate.
He waved to Hega, who put down the kettle in his hand and shouted loudly at the frost giant.
"Break is over! Turn around!
Head south, let’s go!”
