Chapter 457: Fierce Battle Rat-Man
Her attack was so swift that Reiner, the half-elf who had already rushed to the front and was about to attack the rat-man assassin, was stunned for a while, but after hesitating, he still rode forward and besieged the other party together, otherwise he would have run away in vain, it was the first time he had encountered a creature like the Skaven, he had never seen it in his hometown, so he was somewhat curious.
Seeing that the nezumi assassin was blocked and beaten, it seemed that there was no hope of survival, and the alchemists of the Aixin clan on the other side immediately changed their combat strategy, originally it was inclined to use all kinds of high-power offensive magic and control magic to try to help the nezumi assassin escape, but now it began to frequently use various auxiliary buff magic, strengthening the combat effectiveness of the front-line nezumi troops, and it seemed that it had given up on the nezumi assassin and wanted to hold the position.
Levi looked around and found that the battle around him was almost the same, although the sudden attack of the Skaven rat caused a lot of confusion at first, but after all, the Imperial side had already prepared countermeasures in advance, and a large number of ambushes poured out, except for some of the poorly prepared Chosen Heroes, the losses were not light, whether it was the Emperor's direct troops, or the Nord Command, or the troops from other territories to support, the losses were basically very small.
And they have now begun an organized and orderly counterattack, trying to drive the rat people back to their burrows, although some of the rat elite troops are more dense, those rat trolls are still threatening, but more rat people have gradually begun to be forced to retreat.
According to Levi's understanding of the rat race, in this case, as long as their leaders are not stupid, most of them are already trying to retreat, but this is not entirely good news for Levi, because the real purpose of running out with the half-elf Reiner has not yet been achieved, and he has been delayed by these damn rats for too long!
"Huameisi, I'll leave it to you over there, Tanato, Davi, come with me!"
Levi shouted, and without waiting for Bloomis to respond to him, he left nearly half of the troops to her, and then he led a large number of elite cavalry to start a surprise attack in the direction where Lambert was.
Although there will definitely be a battle between them sooner or later, if they can take advantage of this opportunity to kill each other, they will surely save a lot of trouble in the future!
Despite the temporary loss of the assistance of Huames, the cavalry units led by Levi and Tanato, were still unstoppable, and although the nezumi army resisted hard, it did not do anything at all, and even their deaths did not slow them down much.
Levi still used the halberd at first, but soon he found that he was a little too wasteful, and the killing speed of the halberd was not too fast, so he directly replaced it with a long sword and began to use his fighting spirit to cast the sword of the red lotus.
The current longsword in Levi's hand is a high-quality longsword forged by dwarves, and its own length is 1.2 meters, and after he casts the sword of the red lotus, it can increase the attack distance by 65%, although it is still not comparable to the Demon Killing Heavy Halberd in length, but it is barely enough.
What's more, after using the Sword of the Red Lotus, a strong fire elemental attack can inflict 30%-45% splash damage on other targets other than his main attack target, and even this part of the damage is deadly enough for ordinary rat people!
With a dazzling burst of fire, countless humanoid rats were either hacked to death directly on the road, or simply burned to death, which also caused a small area of chaos among the ratmen for a while, after all, they are living beings, not brainless stones, and they are also rat people whose morale is generally relatively low, so soon there are bad luck nezumi slipping away, and there is a tendency to gradually expand.
Under normal circumstances, Levi and the others would definitely be able to kill countless rat heads if they took advantage of the situation to pursue, but now he didn't have this time, because his first target was only the battle blade Lambert!
Of course, Lambert also noticed the menacing Levi, but now he can't be separated for the time being, because now he himself is under siege.
Hawkeye arranged for him to sit in the rear and stay with all kinds of war machines, which was originally a relatively safe place, because all the Norsca pirates came by ship from the Talon Sea, not from behind them, he could stay comfortably behind, as long as he said that he was supervising the war in the rear, and by the way protecting the war machinery, even the emperor couldn't say anything, and once the war was unfavorable, he could be the first to escape.
But who knew that it was not safe here, so many humanoid rats instantly drilled out of the ground, and their targets were all kinds of war machines, as well as themselves staying nearby!
Warblade Lambert now just wanted to shout aggrievedly, "You can just attack those war machines, don't worry about me at all, I'll just stand by and take a look, anyway, those things are not their own, even if they are all lost, they have nothing to do with themselves!" ”
But the rats naturally don't listen to him, or even if he really says it, the rats won't listen, they won't believe it, they will just scream and launch indiscriminate attacks on all humans, because in their eyes humans are not only their enemies, but also tender and juicy food!
Therefore, even if Lambert was reluctant, he could only lead his immediate guards with only the remaining troops to meet him.
Although he hired Hawkeye, these God's Chosen Heroes, but under the pressure of the Emperor, he had to work hard to exterminate the Norska pirates, in that successive battles, he had already suffered a lot of losses, and now he had to continue to consume in the battle with the nezumi, according to the current situation, Warblade Lambert seriously doubted that even if he survived this battle, I am afraid that there would be no way to return to Nunn safely, right? All kinds of monsters and aliens on the road will eat them raw!
And when he saw the guy who was full of fighting energy and wielded a fiery red sword in his hand galloping towards him, his mood was even worse.
As a person entrusted with a heavy task by the Northern Eagle, how could he not understand the identity of that guy? If he hadn't been obstructing him, he would have completed his mission a long time ago and returned to Nunn to enjoy himself, so why would he need to stay in this cold and biting place?!
Especially now, the guy who is said to have learned a lot in the knight kingdom has already come straight to him with cavalry, although he believes that as long as the other party does not make stupid mistakes, he will never dare to openly tear his face with himself, after all, this is a war against the Norska pirates presided over by the emperor, and there is no room for infighting, but he still decided to warn the other party first.
"Levi, you"
Lambert just wanted to stop the other party and let the other party understand that all this is in the eyes of the emperor now, don't do anything stupid, but Levi has already taken the lead in shouting, "Lord Lambert, don't panic, I'm here to reinforce you!" ”
While shouting loudly, Levi used his halberd to raise the corpse of a nezumi high, smashing down a piece of enemies, he has now changed his weapon again, and it is naturally faster to deal with the nezumi with the sword of the Red Lotus, but if the target is not a nezumi, the power of the Demon Killing Heavy Halberd is more trustworthy!
Blade Lambert was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the other party's movements, he was indeed helping to kill the nearby rat people, he suddenly laughed a little, he didn't expect this guy to be so stupid, he was still a little responsible in front of this kind of big right and wrong.
But that's okay, I also know this weakness, and I can't say that I can use it in the future, because sooner or later there will be a formal war, and the more stupid the other party, the better it will naturally be for themselves!
What's more, Hawkeye can't spare their hands for the time being, and they do need a little support.
The purple-black fur and heavily armored rat man in front of him is indeed a bit difficult to deal with, even if he is one of the top few warriors in the Goshawk Knights, he can't win quickly in a heads-up.
I'm a habitual open-and-close style of play, but this damn rat man in front of me, it's jumping around while fighting, and it just refuses to stop, and it's a good fight with its real knives and guns!
But soon Lambert noticed that something was wrong, that Levi didn't seem to be looking to kill the enemy, but rushed straight towards him, and they didn't even have the slightest intention of slowing down their horses, and they had already crashed into the troops in front of them!
"Levi, you guys!"
Warblade Lambert shouted again, but with the blessing of the fighting spirit, Levi's voice was much louder than his, and he also shouted, "Lord Lambert, don't panic, I'm here to save you!" ”
But while shouting like this, the weapon in his hand made a diametrically opposite action, he directly picked up the heavy halberd and slashed forward, not only targeting those grinning ratmen, but also cutting down several of Lambert's subordinates one after another without hesitation!
Lambert was immediately furious, but at this time, the extremely strong and well-trained Skaven Rat who was his opponent seized the opportunity to attack him, and even with his strength, he could not be distracted for a while.
Seeing Levi's movements, the many subordinates who followed him immediately knew what to do, and while they also shouted Lord Lambert, don't panic, etc., they killed Lambert's subordinates, and even the half-elf Reiner did not hesitate to laugh and join the battle after the initial shock, and launched an attack on the human soldiers who stood in front of him.
It's just that the guards behind him are still expressionless, and there doesn't seem to be any emotional fluctuations, they are just silent guards beside the half-elf Reiner, and they don't take the initiative to kill the nezumi or humans in front of them, but when the enemy attacks them or Reiner, they will immediately kill the killer, and their combat effectiveness is also very strong, whether it is an ordinary nezumi or a human warrior, they are not their enemies at all.
Those defensive lines that were fairly strong in the face of the attack of the rat men were so vulnerable in the face of the charge of the cavalry, and Levi and the others quickly cut through most of the formation like waves and went straight to the battle blade Lambert.
Blade Lambert suddenly became even more angry, and even a little frightened, after the long-planned trap failed, he was naturally not idle these days, and he also collected a lot of relevant information, although most of it was useless, but he still knew a little about this Levi and the combat effectiveness of those heroes under him.
If the other party suddenly attacks you while you're busy fighting this damn rat, you'll probably not be able to get out safely, even with your own strength!
Thinking of this, the fighting spirit on the blade Lambert flashed violently, and he used several killing moves in succession, trying to temporarily force back the nezumi in front of him, but the Skaven nezumi in front of him suddenly laughed, and then took out a few things from his waist and smashed them directly to the ground.
I only heard a muffled sound of "bang", and a large area of gray-black, pungent and foul-smelling mist quickly spread, just shrouding Warblade Lambert in it, even if Warblade Lambert held his breath for the first time, he was still stimulated to cough again and again.
"Human things, go kill each other, squeak!"
Lambert was stunned for a moment, and then he was furious, even though it was pitch black in front of him, and he couldn't see anything clearly, but just listening to the tone and tone of his speech, he also knew that the other party must be the rat man who had been against him for a long time just now!
That guy didn't say a word during the battle, and I thought it was because it was too stupid to speak human words, but I didn't expect it to be waiting to mock itself, but it was just a big rat with a human shape, and it could become so cunning?!
In the next moment, Lambert heard only the sound of air being torn, and then he felt a sharp pain in half of his body, and even though he still couldn't see anything in front of him, he could feel a large amount of blood spraying down the wound, and his whole body was rapidly weakening.
Lambert was terrified, you must know that he had just fought with that strong nezumi for so long, and it was just some inconsequential skin wounds, that nezumi, but now he had only suffered a blow from the enemy, but he was directly seriously injured, and for the first time since the beginning of the battle, he really felt the threat of death!
He immediately turned around and fled backwards, although his vision was still dark, but he remembered that he still had friendly troops behind him, and now he didn't care about any face, as long as he ran to Hawkeye's side, he would be absolutely safe!
But it's too late, even if he is a hero unit, how can he compare to a high-speed galloping war horse in such a hasty straight sprint?
Even if everyone can't see the specific target clearly in the dark, but the cavalry only needs to hold their spears and launch a stabbing attack, anyway, except for their own people who are also cavalrymen around them, the rest are enemies, so there is no need to worry about whether there will be accidental injuries!
