Dawn of the Ash Tower

Chapter 24 Knights


Many times, the balance of victory and defeat will always be tilted due to unexpected reasons, such as now.The guards, cheese and others in the original camp had been overwhelmed by the huge number of cavemen, but because of the appearance of this unexpected team, the morale on the battlefield was instantly different.For experienced fighters, this kind of time is often the beginning of changing the situation of the battle.The gradually high morale was directly reflected in the combat capabilities of the soldiers, and the passive situation began to change. The battle on the barracks wall quickly calmed down, and everyone on the battlefield turned their attention to the sudden soldiers.

"A big man has been killed! Only one sword! It's a knight!" Jack shouted loudly.He had seen the vanguard of that party decapitate a large troglodyte with a single stroke of his sword.Although this is due to the inertia of horsepower, killing the opponent's leader with one sword in a melee requires the shooter to have a good grasp of the speed, strength and angle of the shot. There is no doubt that those who can do this calmly Only specially trained knights.

As we all know, knights and cavalry are different, or what they have in common is that they both have mounts.A knight should not only train swordsmanship, but also how to skillfully control his mount. Although other armies often ridicule that a knight without a horse is just an infantry who can fight a little, as long as the knight is on horseback, The superb combat skills of their soldiers and horses are enough to make them several times more valuable than other arms.Coupled with different weapons equipped according to the needs of the battle situation, they have a terrifying impact that ordinary cavalry cannot match.

However, compared with cavalry or other arms, real knight training is very long and arduous, and it is also accompanied by high expenditure, whether it is the breeding of war horses, special knight armor, or spears, knight swords, etc. Combat weapons, the high combat power of a knight is directly proportional to the difficulty of its training.Therefore, even in the entire Cangshi Kingdom, no more than 300 knights with the title of knights can be supported, and they often appear on the battlefield as the vanguard of the battle group or the sharp blade that reverses the defeat, playing a decisive role.As such an ace unit, it is hard to imagine that it will appear in the caves of the Longji Mountains.

"The symbol of the sword and hammer is the Hammer Knights!"

As the knight team gradually approached, the symbols on their battle flags could also be recognized. The crossed knight swords and warhammers on the blood-red background told their identities. One of the people close to the center of power, the Knights under the Lord Hammer.Although the territory is not bordering, this does not prevent the Frost Guards from recognizing their emblems. After all, as the second largest knight order in the kingdom, the Hammer Knights are second only to the Kingdom Knights in the Cangshi Kingdom.

This is the first time cheese has seen a knight in the secular world. Although he has seen the word knight in various documents or materials and even novels, the mage has really seen the most exciting thing in this era today. The look of a warrior that people yearn for.They were dressed in full-body knight armor painted with bright red oil paint, and even their horses were covered with a layer of light armor. These warriors who looked like iron cans were like killing machines, and they rushed away like a smashing bamboo with only [-] people. With far more enemies than themselves, the defense of these knights is hopeless for cavemen who lack formal weapons such as spears.Due to the distance between the opponents, these knights did not use the same lances as their signatures, but used one-handed broadswords to fight. Although the one-handed swords lack strength compared to the two-handed swords, the horsepower of the knights makes up for it. In addition to the lack of weight of weapons, not to mention that these cavemen are basically naked, fighting against the sword with their flesh and blood, the consequences can be imagined.

"Oh my god, I read that right! Gods, is that Lord Heather who rushed to the front?" The exclamation of "Monkey" instantly attracted the attention of others. It brought hope to people, so the feeling of the female knight rushing to the forefront was shocking.

The swordsmanship like flowing water is simple and deadly, and it is suffocating to move and withdraw quickly. The long sword in the female knight's hand is like a poisonous snake in the desert, swallowing death and thirsting for blood.And her tacit cooperation with the horse also makes it difficult for the enemy's attack to touch the corner of her clothes. The knight with a tuft of red mane on the top of the helmet is like a Valkyrie, recklessly harvesting life in the enemy's formation. Pieces of red blood mist splashed out.Cheese never thinks that killing, especially killing with swords, has any ornamental value. For mages, the fastest and most deadly attack should be the pursuit of cold weapons, but watching the battle of female knights, cheese feels for the first time Wielding a sword can also create a sense of beauty, and the arc drawn by the sword light can also jump like the rhythm in the music. Every slash and stab is like a sacrificial dance. Even if she is on horseback, her body The movements are unrestrained, which is a manifestation of the extremely high level of equestrian and swordsmanship.

"Hey!" The appearance of the knights naturally attracted the caveman's attention. Although the opponent was caught off guard and beheaded a leader, the other two big cavemen also reacted at this time, and they let out deafening roars. , there is a layer of gray light flickering faintly on the surface of the body.

"It's stone skin! Those big hairs are angry!" Hahn looked at the source of the roar and said loudly.

The so-called stone skin is a physiological talent of the big cavemen. When these guys enter a state of anger, their skin will tighten and harden instinctively, and its hardness will become comparable to that of rough stones. It is difficult for ordinary iron weapons to fight They do damage, which is the real reason these big guys can be the leaders of caveman packs.Generally, when encountering such a situation, the Frost Guards will retreat temporarily and carry out a planned siege in small groups. Three or four groups of soldiers cooperate with each other to distract the big guy, let him look forward and backward, and wait until the big guy is exhausted. Swarm up and kill it.When these cavemen are tired, it is difficult for them to maintain this stone skin form, so that soldiers can approach them and try to kill them.

However, the knights who had rushed under the camp wall didn’t seem to think so. I don’t know whether these knights didn’t understand the horror of stone skin or they had confidence in the sharp blade in their hands. I saw these hammer knights turned their horses and leaned their backs. The camp wall made a charging posture in the direction of the big man, and it seemed that he was preparing to meet the two furious caveman leaders head-on.

"Crazy, all crazy, they want to deal with those two big guys head-on!" Jack said.

He wanted to remind the other party of the danger of Stoneskin.But the female knight at the head of the team had already raised her knight sword, and as she suddenly pointed the sword at the two big cavemen who were running wildly, the entire knight team launched a second charge!Those ordinary cavemen have long been overwhelmed by these red gods of death, and they pushed each other to make way for a passage.

Then a dramatic scene happened. With their backs against the wooden wall of the camp, under the watchful eyes of their enemies and comrades-in-arms, the knights charged towards the two roaring monsters.The result of their collision is not only related to their own lives, but also the lives of all the residents of Sweetwater Town in the camp. At this moment, no matter whether it is the guards of Sweetwater Town, the soldiers from Frost, or the mage wearing gray robes He held his breath consciously, waiting for the moment when the two confronted each other.
