Chapter 55: The Dark Iron Cavalry

The neighing of the war horses became clearer and clearer, as if they were on the battlefield. I seemed to hear the sound of thousands of troops fighting. As the sound became louder, the giant magic lamps that were originally covered with the top of the cave were like electric lights with unstable voltage. Not only did the brightness flash, but they also exploded several times one after another. The scene seemed to be something absorbing the energy of the magic lamp. The surrounding cave birds suddenly began to get wrong. With the sizzling sound, irregular electric arcs began to flash on the walls!

The flat ground paved with white foundation stones was suddenly covered with a layer of gray-white dust. Not only did the house thicken, but it continued to expand into the surroundings. Fortunately, the magic pets who had been summoned retreated one after another and did not want to stand on this strange dusty ground.

The dark area on the ground quickly occupied a large area of ​​land, but it did not continue to expand but stopped. A red light suddenly appeared on the ground, and dense spells covered the entire ground. A neat sound came from the spell, which was the sound of a large group of people: "The heroes are moving forward, and the cowards are retreating. They sacrifice with blood and defend with their lives! Growing up in battle, never give up! Obstacles are in front of them, and they must be flattened!"

Ling stared at her eyes and said, "It's not them, are they?"

"What?"

"The Seventh Legion, which was wiped out in the Dark Temple during the last God War, has been considered the strongest legion of the Temple in history!"

"Is it the strongest legion?"

"It was the entire army that was wiped out! But do you know why they were wiped out?"

"have no idea!"

"Because they captured the Sorenburg Fortress stationed by 200,000 troops with 100,000 troops, and then buried 30,000 prisoners of war alive, and were then surrounded by the 1.5 million troops who were rushed to the fortress for a month!"

"What happened later?"

"They withstood the attack of 1.5 million troops within a month and persisted until the city was still in our hands when the Dark Temple drew troops from the front battlefield to rescue!"

"Since you have defended it, why will the whole army be wiped out?"

"Because when we arrived, the Seventh Army had been wiped out, and 20,000 seriously injured people blocked the city gate with their bodies. When the reinforcements arrived, they climbed in from the city wall, and there were no living people in the city! The 1.5 million Knights of Light suffered 700,000 casualties in a month, but they still failed to capture the city! In fact, all the troops in the city were killed three days before the reinforcements arrived, but the dead soldiers still supported their bodies with weapons and stood on the city wall without falling down. As a result, the Knights of Light did not know that there was no one in the city. They rested outside the city for three days and did not dare to attack the city! When they discovered it, the reinforcements had arrived!"

"Isn't this a bunch of lunatics?"

"Don't insult these heroes!" Ling got angry at me for the first time. "The Seventh Legion is an undefeated myth. They represent a belief. The steely will can defeat any enemy, even if they are dead! Do you know how powerful a legion must be to scare away a million soldiers from defending the city with 100,000 corpses for three days?"

"But weren't they killed? Why did they come to me?"

"I don't know! The Seventh Legion is the only legion of full cavalry in the Dark Temple. Every soldier is an all-rounder. He holds a staff and becomes a dark mage. He takes a weapon and becomes a black warrior. He rides a war horse and becomes a black knight. He holds a bow and arrow and becomes a archer! However, they were all warriors of the demon clan back then. Now they are summoned. I don't know if the resurrected Seventh Legion or becomes an undead creature!"

"Be careful, it's coming out!"

The spell on the ground suddenly disappeared, and all the sounds around it suddenly disappeared at the same time. After about two seconds of pause, the neighing of the war horse suddenly resumed, and this time the sound was loud and crisp as if it was coming from the ground, unlike the deep sound at the beginning. The gray sand first sank down, and then suddenly appeared one by one, one by one, and one head stretched out from the soil, followed by the arms and body. A war horse wrapped in black armor was carrying a knight who was also wrapped in black steel armor and struggled to stand up from the sand. The gray sand soil came from

Their bodies slid down and stirred up a piece of smoke. After a few seconds, thousands of heavy cavalry had already appeared in front of us in an orderly line. All the black-armored cavalry rode the same war horses. These knights were indeed the same as Ling said. They had a shield on their left arm, a one-handed sword on their waists, and a strange-shaped long bow behind their backs. There was a staff next to the saddle, and two quiver pots were hung on the other side! It was true that they could do anything! Strong! But what made me wonder is that there was a large bundle of ropes hanging on the side of the saddles of these cavalry, so I don’t know what they were for!

A knight who was like a leader ran over and came to me. After he jumped off his horse and knelt on one knee. "The Seventh Army Skeleton Knight came to report! What are the Lord's instructions?"

All the cavalry were wearing armor and even their war horses were as tightly wrapped. Although he called himself a skeleton knight, I couldn't tell at all that he looked like a skeleton! The only difference from the living creature is that he and his war horse could only see a red dot in the eyes, which felt scary!

"Master, why not give these troops to us to command?" Sgoth walked on my own recommendation. "We demon knights have commanded several battles. These are all soldiers of the Seventh Army. They must be very powerful. Let our command greatly improve our combat effectiveness!"

"Okay!" I said to the skeleton knight: "You just follow the command of these 10 demon spirit knights!"

"Yes!" The Skeleton Knight immediately stood up and followed Sgoth.

Ten demon spirit knights rode their war horses to the front row to command, and the heavy ankylos were placed alone by them as the backbone of charge. The 10 demon spirit knights lined up in front, followed by the neat skeleton cavalry brigade, it was really like that!

Ling came over and said, "There are too many enemies, so it's not very meaningful for me to participate in the battle directly. Why would I use all my magic power to upgrade these cavalry?"

"Can you upgrade them?"

"It's just temporary, but it's always better than nothing, right?"

"Yeah! Then come on!"

Ling stood behind the team and raised his staff over his head. "Dark Oath!" A golden six-pointed star formation appeared under the feet of all the skeleton cavalry. The formation was rotating slowly, but it was obvious that its speed was getting faster and faster! The rotation speed of the formation quickly turned into a crazy point. The high-speed rotation formation suddenly began to rise, and the skeleton cavalry standing on them were filtered by the formation. When the formation rose to the top of the cavalry's heads, it suddenly disappeared. The cavalry on the field seemed to move nothing except a red feather on its head!

Now there is a red tassel on the helmets of these cavalrymen. The entire army looks like the ceremonial knights during the Carnival parade, and even the war horses they are under their streak have a red pole on the heads, making it look like a handsome horse in a circus.

I can see the attributes of the cavalry now, and it has indeed increased by more than one level! The most important thing is that there are many more collective skills. You should know that in the war, one plus one is greater than two. A level 500 player and 10 level 400 players have a wheel battle, and the possibility of victory is 90%, but if these 10 people rush over, then this level 500 player has a big impact! So whether the collective skills of the skeleton cavalry will have a great impact, oh by the way, they should be called the Dark Iron Cavalry now.

Ling squatted weakly on the ground. I asked Rose to take care of her for the time being. If Ling's recovery speed was fast enough, maybe she could help make up for some big magic later.

The Red Armored Knight walked out with the agreed 2,000 stone men. He had been busy with his side just now. Although he asked about the characteristics of the stone men, he had never paid attention to their appearance. Now he realized that these guys were like a bunch of moving terracotta warriors. His height of more than two meters made them stand on the ground and he was almost as tall as my knights. These things must not be fought hard, otherwise they would have to suffer losses.

I rode to Ye Ying to the front of the queue to confront the Red Armor Knight. Ye Ying is still in the shape of a nightmare. The time limit for the transformed gem has not yet expired, so I will not be able to return to the Heavy Ankyloss for the time being! After both sides were ready, the unstoppable personnel began to evacuate the ground. Rose and the others retreated to the edge of the square. The Red Armor Warriors' subordinates who did not participate in the battle also began to retreat until they left the square.

The huge square is quite large, and so many of us can even leave a safe distance of more than 100 meters in the middle when we stand on it. In fact, this is good for me. Only when the area is large can there be enough distance for my cavalry to start. The group charge will only show its power when it reaches a certain speed. Cavalry without speed is not much better than infantry.

The Red Armored Knight asked, "Are you okay?"

"alright!"

He nodded, then raised his right hand holding the sword above his head, and then slowly lowered his arm until the tip of the sword pointed at me. "Everyone! Go forward!" The 2,000 stone people began to move forward at the same time like a person. The ground resonance caused by the neat steps was like an earthquake!

I don't want to collide with them head-on. I pulled out the sword and pointed it diagonally forward. "The Dark Iron Cavalry prepared the bow and arrow!" There was a neat clamor behind, and the knights quickly changed into the longbow. Although the level was different, at least the training was not inferior to the opponent's variance! "The 400-meter benchmark point in front, throw and shoot!" All the dark Iron Cavalry opened their bows at the same time and pointed the bow and arrow diagonally towards the sky. "Let it!" There was a whistle behind, and a large rain of arrows flew up.

Shooting the Stone Man? Don’t be joking, can you shoot? Those things have no arrows except for the crossbows. My target is the Red Armored Knight. Although his subordinates are the Stone Man, he should be another creature. As long as he loses his back, it will be easy to deal with! The arrow rain flew over the highest point, and then burrowed it densely with the Red Armored Knight as the center. This is thanks to the high cave, otherwise it would be difficult to throw high and shoot!

The drizzling arrow rain instantly covered the red-armored knight, but the guy reacted quickly. He jumped over and hid behind the stone man, and several stone man immediately took the initiative to protect him. As a result, although the arrow rain did not hit the knight, it tied his mount into a hedgehog. The stone man who blocked his arrows were actually shot and dispersed by the dense arrow rain. It seems that as long as the attack is concentrated enough, the stone man will be shot by the arrows!

But I am not interested in wasting time now, because the stone people ran towards us under the command of the Red Armored Knight who played the game as an infantryman. Of course, for the stone people, running is faster than we walk.

"Snow Demon, please make an ice belt at a distance of 200 to 300 meters in front."

The snow demons immediately began to create a 100-width ice rink. The stone people rushed to the front, and the red-armored knight flew over directly, but the stone people behind him could not jump up. A large number of stone people walked onto the ice, but their center of gravity was very good, and none of them fell down.

"Keep the Dark Iron Cavalry, prepare the bow and arrow in front, with an angle of 20, let it go!" A rain of arrows flew over my head. The stone man's door, which had run smoothly, was suddenly hit by a rain of arrows. This time, the scattered shooting, the power of the arrow was not concentrated, but the kinetic energy of the arrows cannot be ignored. It is impossible to resist the arrows on the ice surface with almost no adhesion. A large area of ​​stone man fell down. Although they were still struggling, how could the slippery ice surface make them get up so easily?

"Prepare for the human bridge!" The red-armored Knight who had crossed the ice area gave the order, and the falling stone man simply lay down and stopped moving. The stone man behind him ran over on their backs.

Seeing the stone people rushing in, the Red Armored Knight no longer cared about the troops behind and rushed up. It seemed that this was another commander who liked to rush forward like me! I didn't look back and looked forward to Sgoth in front and said, "The troops are left to you to command, I will stop the commanding knight!"

"Yes, master!" Sgott immediately turned around and ordered: "All troops should be careful not to get close to the enemy. The troops should be dispersed. A demon spirit knight leads a team, guerrilla tactics!"

At this time, I had already driven Ye Ying out. I am confident in my army. As long as I don’t lose, there will be no problem. So I want to win and not let my subordinates be dragged down by me!
