The Knights, which have been established for more than 1oo years, have gradually become one of the strongest forces to deter the entire Big 6 after so many years of baptism of war and political turmoil.
It can even be said that without the King's Shield, there would be no current House of Itis.
"All assembled!"
Following the order of Baron Tebck, the current 318 knights of the Knights of the King's Shield, with their knightly attendants, gathered on the training ground of the Knights' residence.
Now, announce the King's warrant.
"In view of the fact that the sudden occurrence of multiple calamities has caused a great threat to the safety of the royal capital and its surroundings, in order to minimize all possible losses, His Majesty the King hereby orders the mobilization of 2oo King's Shield Protector Knights to immediately go to the eastern suburbs to take over the defense, and be sure to exterminate the Calamity Legion!"
When the baron announced the queen's decree on behalf of the unconscious king, he began to select the knights who were most suitable for the mission.
However, the loyal knights have no doubts, as long as it is ordered by the king, even if it is to go to the soup and face a million enemy troops, they will gladly go, because they are the sword and shield of the king, and the most powerful guardian of the Duchy of Itis.
In just one cup of tea, a full 2oo high-ranking knights in full armor, together with their knight attendants 4oo people, were ready to go out and fight.
These knights, whose average combat effectiveness has reached B level or above, have an invincible will and faith, whether on the battlefield or in the battle against calamity.
And now, under the leadership of the S-rank veteran knight leader, Zerui, the whole army has set out on a journey to defeat the Calamity Legion that they have never heard of.
And Deputy Captain Teberke, who was standing at the Knights' station, even replaced the ridicule with extreme ridicule this time.
"No matter how strong it is, it's not like I'm playing with it casually. ”
……
On the fourth line of defense on the eastern outskirts of the royal capital, 700 remnants of the defeated army, who had no morale to speak of, were lingering around this improvised fence and sentry tower.
The air of despair and fear hung over the head of the army, which had just withdrawn from the third line of defense, and even on that bloody line, there were many comrades who held their ground, but they could not prevent these people from falling out.
These soldiers, who were not even ordinary people in the face of calamity, could no longer raise any fighting spirit after witnessing the destruction of the world monsters trampling and tearing apart their companions for many years, and if it weren't for the presence of the officers, hundreds of soldiers who dared to break through might have run away without a trace.
Just when everyone was lying on the ground like mud, the sentinels of the sentry tower, who were still dutiful, let out a horn of reinforcements coming.
It was also at this time that the rolling horses' hooves and the muffled thunder hitting the ground also came from the direction of the royal capital.
And these voices from far and near became clearer and louder, with a special rhythm of "step, step", which greatly gave these soldiers a sense of salvation, because a banner representing the sword and shield of the king appeared in front of them.
However, these imposing knights did not pay attention to the hundreds of city defenders who retreated without authorization, but continued to gallop towards the front without stopping.
Bright silver armor, glowing spears, tall horses with armor, dust flying in the sky, and royal blue sleeveless overcoats that swing in the wind with a "whew, whew" sound.
The backs of these shocking knights gradually moving away became the last reflection in the eyes of these remnants of the defeated generals.
……
At this moment, on the third line of hell on earth, there are no humans still standing, except for those calamities that devour flesh and blood.
And the tide of "rumbling... At this time, the sound of "rumbling" appeared on a high slope not far from the battlefield, and then suddenly stopped.
Zerui, who took the lead, looked at the mountain of corpses and blood in front of him expressionlessly, and the riding spear in his hand was also held by him "squeak, squeak".
And behind him, a group of knights who seemed to be about to transform into killing machines were exuding endless hatred and monstrous rage, accumulating their momentum.
At the same moment, these calamities that appeared in a heap also felt those sharp eyes and began to roar.
The terrifying and bloodthirsty howls did not shake these iron cans that were like the embodiment of faith, but only aroused the knights' determination to annihilate the calamity.
"Glory, justice, fearlessness, humility!"
"Knight! for the king!"
Without superfluous nonsense, the Knights of the King's Shield, who had briefly stayed on the nameless slope and regrouped, began their terrible charge with a low but firm declaration.
From the slow start at the beginning of the slope top, to the gradual increase after climbing down the dirt slope, and finally rushing down the nameless dirt slope, the knights raised their degrees to the maximum, and the sound of horses' hooves, which was originally uniform, also became chaotic under the high charge.
However, in this messy "Long... Under the rumbling sound, it was the incomparably sharp energy that pierced the air and tore the earth.
Under this overwhelming sharp edge, even those fearless calamities seemed to be connected by the knights, and the infinitely superimposed momentum was shocked.
The short distance between the two sides flashed by, the hazy smoke and dust swept through, the flags that resounded through the battlefield, and the intertwined steel sorrows, and the unstoppable knights directly chiseled through the side of several calamities, which had no formation to speak of.
In just one look, the six calamities that had just flaunted their might were only half of the scarred ones.
However, the Knights who had completed this brilliant victory did not show any joy, especially the senior Knight Chief, Zeri.
In the face of this unheard-of Calamity legion, he always had a feeling of being surrounded by a thick fog that could not be seen or touched.
And these chaotic and destructive-level disasters are not completely powerless.
Also suffering damage were the attacking knights, although their losses were minimal.
Just as the King's Shield Knights were about to turn their horses' heads and intend to charge again to completely destroy these monsters, the calamities in front of them actually made a series of strange moves.
They began to leave in the opposite direction of the Knights, no! looking at Calamity's panicked appearance, it would be more appropriate to flee.
"Escaped, is this really a calamity?" Zeri frowned tightly, the feeling that had been bad was now even more obvious.
"Knights, for the king, pursuit!"
Although Zeri trusts his instincts, these calamities with devastating power cannot be left unattended.
So, he gave the last order that he would regret for the rest of his life.
