The Amber Sword - 877

The night belongs to those who never sleep. The remaining army of undead advances in the dark. The undulating ridges of the river valley in the dark are like giant beasts, the silent dark forest, the bleak meadow and the rubble. The landscape formed by the riverbank quickly receded from both sides of the undead’s pale vision. The blood rod and its high-ranking corpses are protected in the center of these skeleton riders. It raised its bare skull and looked at the south of the river valley. The gleam of the gurgling river outlines the valley in that direction. The narrow shape of the pass, behind it is the exit to the Sillman 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 large number of bones of thorns and a few large black tents, but this camp is empty at the moment. Objects, there is no sign of activity in it. The undead army stopped under the order of the blood rod. There was originally a group of corpse witches stationed here. There were hundreds of skeleton warriors under them. However, these undeads seemed to be turned into air at the moment and disappeared.

The blood rod sent out several scouts, and these scouts ran back quickly, and the news they brought back was the same as it had seen. There was nothing in the camp and no signs of fighting.

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

“It found us.” Brende let out a white breath in the cold night. There was only sparse light in the rainy night, and the blade in his hand was dark and non-reflective.

“It’s awareness, not discovery.” Alea corrected.

“It’s all about the same.”

“No, it’s a lot worse. Tactically, being aware of our existence means we have determined our position, but realizing that it’s just a guess. The difference here is big. Brende, the vagueness is not yours. Style.”

“you shut up.”

Alea wanted to say more, but little Pello also turned his head and glared at him, and said, “You shut up.” He opened his mouth, and finally closed it honestly. There was a low laugh in the dark night, and the young Cruz people were obviously used to seeing Alea’s deflated appearance.

“That is the undead?” a female knight asked curiously.

Little Pello glanced at the bone racks from a distance and nodded.

“The empire fought with them on the island of Kerry. They turned out to be like this. Those necromancers were doing desecration of corpses on the edge of the empire. The temple should have sanctioned them long ago.”

“Aren’t you afraid?” Alea asked curiously, “I heard that all of you women are afraid of these bones.”

“Alea, shut up!” The female knight replied angrily, “The dog can’t spit out ivory!”

“They’re alert, what should we do?” Brende asked without looking aside, sitting in the saddle, as if he hadn’t seen his damaging friend’s face. It was drizzling in the night, the military uniform was clinging to the body like wet hair, and the gaps in the armor seemed to be full of water, which made people feel very uncomfortable, but it couldn’t shake him at all. It seemed like a model of the imperial knight.

“It doesn’t matter, this is their only way. Lord Earl fought very beautifully. They don’t have much left. We can just wait here. There is no need to play any tricks with them.” Little Pello replied. .

“The more complex the tactics, the easier it is to fail.” Brende said as if reciting a scripture.

“Dogmatist.” Alaya whispered.

The Knights of Broken Swords lined up on the river beach a hundred meters away from the dead camp. Hundreds of cavalry were silent on the gravel ground, leaving only rows of cavalry long swords standing in a row. , Bright light blue eyes.

The blood rod quickly spotted this unusual cavalry, and it was a little stunned, because it originally thought it would be attacked by a round, but it did not expect these brave humans to stand up in front of it. , I want to confront myself head-on. It suddenly felt ashamed. If a day ago, how could such a small human cavalry dare to be so arrogant, but even now, it still has more than a thousand skeleton cavalry in its hands. These human cavalry are simply too bad. Put yourself in the eye.

The skeletal staff in the blood staff’s handle squeezed and creaked, as if to feel the anger beating in the fire of its burning soul, and several necromantic apprentices who followed it quickly reminded him that this might be a human trap. .

But the blood rod shook its head, and before it could speak, the dark mercenaries around it laughed empty and meaninglessly.

The blood rod looked at these guys with a little annoyance: “No need, this is our only way, they can just make a surprise attack, there is no need to be so mysterious.”

“No more than three hundred,” the dark mercenaries who began to sneer quickly estimated the number of Cruz knights. Darkness is an ally of the eternal dead. “These human beings really do not live or die.”

“Send a scout cavalry to explore the strength.” The blood rod suddenly felt something dangerous.

The young people of Cruz looked at the small group of skeletal cavalry separated from the undead army, and immediately understood the other party’s attempt. Little Pello said nothing, made a gesture, and ordered Brende to lead a small group of knights to welcome him. Go up. These folding sword knights are by no means new recruits on the battlefield. Before the life and death encounters in the Dead Frost Forest, they had already fought many enemies. These bones were just an episode of their military career. Brende soon Intercepted the small group of skeleton cavalry, and then the two sides started fighting, and it took only a few minutes to kill the opposite side, but none of the undead turned around and escaped, which made him slightly surprised and became cautious.

The army of the undead is indeed very different from the opponents he has encountered.

“The strength of the Silver Stage is approximately between the middle and lower reaches.” The dark mercenaries from the Dead Moon Sea quickly came to the conclusion. The soul fire in their eyes flashed, while using a hoarse voice and a blood rod. Said.

“I’m afraid there is hidden strength, which means that Eruin has another Tier 4 cavalry team.” The blood rod replied in a deep voice, “No wonder it is so arrogant.”

Its tone was full of unwillingness, feeling that it shouldn’t have come to Eruin at all. Its past understanding of this kingdom was completely subverted in a mere day, and it hasn’t even figured out that the elite surpassed him. How did the imagined human army come from. There shouldn’t be such an army in the southern border of the kingdom, and no one has ever told it. The news it received from all channels indicated that this was the most empty moment in the south of the kingdom.

But now, the blood rod was faintly aware that he seemed to have been sold.

It is very astute, and already knows in its heart that the road back to Madara may not be so easy, but it still has a chance. It has taken all the high-level corpses from the battlefield. This is its most important one. Strength, as long as this foundation is still there, then it will have a comeback one day. It recovered, and looked at the “Eruin cavalry” in front of him coldly. Its strength is almost six times that of the opponent. Even if the cavalry is a Tier 4 army, it still has Certain advantages.

“It is necessary for these humans to understand that the night belongs to the eternal and immortal.”

The blood staff shook his skeleton staff lightly, and pointed forward–

The skeletal cavalry began to disperse. These bony horsemen with flames in their eye sockets drove side by side in the valley, trotting forward, and quickly formed a wedge-shaped attack formation. During the whole process, the whole army hardly made much noise. , Only the crisp sound of bones and horseshoes falling on the gravel, the emptiness is hairy. This silence is enough to overwhelm any human army. However, the young people of the Knights of the Broken Sword are an exception. They have seen a scene of wolves running on the tundra. Compared to the forest, it is nothing more than that.

“They really came!” Alaya even snarled in excitement.

“They have to come,” Brende replied.

“You guy is really boring.”

Little Pello turned his head at this time, his eyes swept across everyone’s faces: “Lord Tonigel asks us not to expose our strength above gold. This is related to our main mission to stay here, so you understand. How should this battle be fought?”

“Hi—”

“Hey!” Hearing Pello said so, the crowd suddenly sighed.

“What fun is there then, little Pello.” Alea couldn’t help but yelled, “Let’s do a good job, the bones are going to rust out!”

“You can talk to the prince about this.” Little Pello gave him a slanted look and replied.

Now these young people from Cruz have nothing to say, let them go to bargain with the eldest son of the emperor, it is better to kill them. Everyone knows that the prince’s eldest son is serious and serious on weekdays. He will be about the same as them next year, but he seems to be ten years older than them. The key is that there is a legion leader behind the prince’s eldest son. Young people like them can dare to ignore the majesty of the royal family, but facing Veronica, it is like seeing a cat and a mouse.

The knights’ phalanx was suddenly silent, and Little Pello nodded with satisfaction: “Get ready, the first wave of attacks.”

He raised his hand.

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

At this distance, it is difficult for the blood stick to see the movements of the Cruz people, but it still notices the abnormality. The skeleton knight has entered the best distance for sprinting, but the opponent is still motionless. What is the reason? Don’t the opposing commander understand that when two cavalry meet, whoever ran up and entered the best attack position had the upper hand. What’s more, the number of cavalry of these Eruins is far less than it. In theory, they should take advantage of flexibility to take the initiative to redeem their disadvantages in strength, but the other side seemed to be shocked and stood stupidly. There.

Of course, the blood rod would not think that the opponent was frightened. How could a commander who can command a Tier 4 army be a fool? It instinctively felt that there was a conspiracy, but it was too late at this time, the army had been activated, and it was impossible to stop or turn around.

“What the hell is going on?” It couldn’t help asking for the first time the rebellious dark mercenaries.

But these experienced tactical masters were dumbfounded at the moment. They didn’t understand what this weird cavalry was trying to do. In the end, it was seen by an old necromancer from the barren territory on the far east of the Dead Moon Sea. After a little clue, “They seem to be preparing some magic!” When the necromancer saw this, his voice changed a little, because it did not see it, but felt the majestic oncoming. Magic breath.

Prepare spells?

The blood rod was also dumbfounded. He saw the archer on horseback today, the cavalry without horses, the wizard used as an archer, and he didn’t expect to see the cavalry wizard in armor at the end. “They are wearing armor and full body cavalry armor, you tell me they are preparing spells!” The blood rod couldn’t help but roared a little bit angry.

But as soon as his voice fell, a dazzling light flashed in the square formation of the Knights of Folding Swords.

The young Cruz knights held their right hand high. Unlike most knights in the Knights, they mostly wore not heavy iron handguards, but beautiful platinum handguards. The biggest difference between this kind of handguard and ordinary handguards is The ten fingers are not connected together, it has an elegant and exquisite beauty, but in addition to its own artistic beauty, the biggest advantage of this kind of handguard 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 area-

Magic ring.

On the fingers of these young Cruz people, there is a piece of beautiful shiny rings inlaid with rubies, flame agates, emeralds, and blue crystals. Each ring is engraved with countless mysterious runes. Law circle.

If Brando’s army is extremely luxurious in the eyes of Count Jacques, it is really the gap between the beggar and the rich compared with these young leaders from the Cruz people. The young people of the Knights of Folding Swords are per cent. Eighty are all descendants from various families in the empire, and the cost of equipment on each of them is almost enough to arm a whole knight collar. This little money is only a small part of the wealth of the empire’s nobles. It seemed to be a matter of course, but it was the first time it was placed in the remote place of Eruin.

The blood rod was fortunate to witness how the elite knights of the Cruz people showed off their strength and wealth.

In some ways, it was the first person of Madara.

…

Alvette is standing next to her horse, and the gaps in the heavy white armor on her body seem to be endlessly braving flames. This is called the Banshee by all the Dark Lords in the Sea of Dead Moon. Ms. Wang rarely shows her true face, but today she rarely wears a helmet. Under the helmet is a pale face. For a lady, this face is beautiful, but it is full of cold air. ; Her hair is like a burning phosphorous fire, from time to time there are silver flames flying away, against a flat forehead without the slightest blood, and a pair of silver eyes under the sword-like slender eyebrows are hidden in the sunken eye sockets, she is squeezing at the moment With thin lips, his cheeks are a little sunken, and the whole person seems very silent.

She did not speak, but her eyes were shining against the distant fire.

Several banshees guarded the banshee king by his side.

“Let’s go.” After watching for a moment, she suddenly turned around, grabbed the saddle and got on the horseback. The voice of the Banshee King is very ethereal, like a faint singing: “There is nothing to look at, the blood rod is over.”

“Your Majesty, are you saying that those Eruins defeated the blood rod?” a banshee asked sharply.

“Don’t call me your majesty, Winnie, there is only one majesty of Madara,” Alvette replied, “It is nothing strange that the Eruin defeated the blood rod itself. It is just a fool. Instaron played around. The poor guy thought that your majesty would tacitly approve of its behavior in the secret-ah, I really admire Targus, dare to deal with that guy, instaron kind of people, even if you Sometimes you have to help him count the money.”

Alvette unscrupulously ridiculed the confidants around a few supreme ones in the empire, the banshees hissed and did not dare to continue answering.

She finally glanced at the flash on the other side of the mountain, and said to herself: “But the Eruins did give me a little surprise. Have you seen it? This is the foundation of this ancient land. Don’t underestimate any enemies. After thousands of years of precipitation, they have some ingenious knowledge and secrets that can always bring you accidents. But accidents in war are fatal, and the blood rod always looks at him with the stupid eyes of the past. Opponents, this is a battle of life and death today. It will not keep its hands. How can its enemies be soft-hearted? Ah, the new dark nobles in the empire can’t wait to make achievements in this land, but this time, your Majesty is afraid There are reasons to convince them.”

“Why does your Majesty care about this little Eruin.”

Alvette shook her head and did not refute her personal waitress. She knew in her heart that the Supreme One cared not about Eruin, but the attitude of the Four Great Temples. Eruin suddenly showed a strong side today. What is behind it is hard to say. The Lord Earl of Tonigel seems to have something to do with the Wind Elf, but the power he holds also has traces of the temple. He seems to have emerged out of thin air overnight, and he has a powerful influence.

“interesting.”

She whispered: “It’s interesting.”

But there was one more word she didn’t say, and she even had a faint feeling in her heart that the Eruin army had a faint aura that made her feel very familiar. The banshee king shook his head, muttering in his heart:

“No, it shouldn’t be possible.”
