Payne soothed the slightly restless mount, and behind him, twenty-eight knights in the same armor stood, and the atmosphere was a little tense, and even the most powerful knights could not help but feel a little frightened and uneasy when facing a race far beyond the scope of human power.

Perhaps feeling the emotions of his master, even the horses under him began to pace around non-stop.

Instead of carrying a knight's sword, the knights opted for a heavier and longer lance, a weapon that resembled a large spear, but sharper than a spear and had extremely strong armor-piercing performance, coupled with the speed of the horse, Payne was confident that he could pierce the barbarian's body with the weapon in his hand.

The Musket cannot be used in this situation, it is more suitable as a defensive weapon, and may be decisive in the presence of obstacles, but in a head-to-head confrontation, the slow reload speed will make the user passive.

And on the back of a bumpy horse, it was simply impossible to complete the aiming.

Payne had informed Iron Fist to lead nearby sheriffs and soldiers to reinforce him, but they needed time to assemble and Payne had to hold on to this last line of defense before they arrived.

Behind them was the residential area of the empty crossing.

Payne couldn't retreat, and he didn't dare to retreat.

A loud siren sounded from the direction of the watchtower ahead, Payne knew that this indicated that the enemy had entered a range of a thousand meters, he wiped his sweaty palms on his armor, clenched the weapon in his hand, felt the heavy touch coming from his palm, and he took a deep breath.

"I know there's no shame in being scared when faced with an unknown and powerful enemy," Payne felt he should say something to boost his morale, "Fear will make us find a way to defeat the enemy, and now, our enemy is coming." ”

"Behind us are civilians, women and children who have no ability to resist, and if we retreat, they will be brutally killed by the enemy, and even their bodies will not be saved. ”

"The duty of a knight is to defend the interests of the lord, and I want you to understand that the name "knight" is not just a title, we enjoy the privileges and conveniences that come with this status, and we will pay the same responsibilities and obligations. ”

"We can't retreat!"

"We will not retreat!"

Payne growled.

"I am willing to be loyal to my lordship!"

There was an earth-shattering response behind him.

"Iron Fist once laughed at me, he said that when the musket or something* appeared, the knight would lose his role, now, let us tell him......" Payne looked at the approaching barbarian, raised his weapon and aimed it forward, and shouted: "The age of knights is not over, the battlefield belongs to us!"

"Charge!"

......

The battle of the fortress wall continued, and gradually turned to the white-hot stage, Rand had to admire the strong physique of the barbarians, after ingesting a large amount of sulfur dioxide, most of the barbarians only vomited a few times, and there were no other more intense malignant reactions, perhaps related to the better ventilation effect in the open environment, the barbarians survived the fire wall tactics and poison gas tactics with difficulty, and started a new round of attacks.

Artillery fire is roaring, arrows are raining, and the long-range weapons on the fortress walls are being rapidly depleted, but in order to combat the possible crisis of this winter, the armory is full of arrows, and there is no need to worry about running out of weapons in battle.

"Separate some of the people and immediately go to support Payne. The battle of the fortress wall has been decided, with the fortress wall here, we have a natural advantage, and we don't need so many troops," Rand commanded the occupation, ordering the seventh and eighth and ninth teams to quickly leave the battlefield and go to the battlefield two kilometers away to support Payne's combat team, "Payne's enemy is on a vast flat land. ”

"Tourang, organize a team to evacuate the villagers of Roque Town immediately, so that they don't have to worry about their livestock and dry food anymore, and if they are plundered, I will compensate them. "Roquetown is the closest village to where Payne is at war with the barbarians, and if Penn fails to stop the barbarians, then Roquetown will bear the brunt of the massacre, and the villagers will become the target of the barbarians.

"I can go with you. ”

A slightly hoarse voice came from the crowd, and everyone looked over to find the shadow standing there with his long knife, which never left his hand, and repeated: "If you kill the sneak attacker, I think I can help a little." ”

"You are a wounded, and the task of a wounded person is to lie in bed and take care of his body. Rand frowned.

"I've been cured a long time ago, the demon seed's body is different from that of humans, and the most powerful thing is the ability to heal itself. The shadow said, "I have enjoyed the food and shelter you have given, so I must pay it back." ”

"No one is asking you to pay back ......"

"Now your Order is teetering on the brink of death, and if you persist in arguing with me, the consequences could be quite dire. The shadow interrupted Rand's words, and his eyes stared at him coldly.

Why are all the little boys of the demon seed under my command so characterful?

Tsundere and confident Oak.

Tempered hard like the shadow of a stone.

Could it be that the teenagers in the rebellious period are so annoying?

"I can help too......" Oak was about to say something, but was coldly interrupted by the shadow.

"When it comes to killing people, I'm the best at it. Shadow looked at Oak with a blank face, and slowly pulled the long knife out of its sheath, "You're still far away." ”

......

"Shadow's personality has always been like this, so please don't hold a grudge against him, because he has lived with wolves since he was a child, and he doesn't think much about each other's feelings when communicating. Andy explained to Oak: "He always felt that people who couldn't keep themselves safe on the battlefield were all dragging oil bottles. ”

"Fierce, others are kind. Connor huffed as she looked at the shadow's distant figure, "I don't know anything about it." ”

Eventually, at Shadow's urging, he and the troops supporting Payne traveled to Roque, while Oak stayed behind to garrison the fortress walls against the barbarians who climbed the walls with ropes, and Oak's flames were an effective means of combating.

And Rand began to think about it, as the number of demon seeds in the air crossing realm increased, although the docile demon seeds such as Andy and Connor also existed, most of the demon seeds were unruly, even Oak, who now seems to be gentle and generous, has several lives in his hands in the process of escaping.

None of the demon seeds that survive and grow up in this environment are easy to get along with.

If he wanted to make sure that the demons would follow orders, then Rand felt that some necessary measures had to be taken.

For example, the establishment of an organization outside of the military establishment, and the formulation of rules and regulations only for demon seeds.

What's the name of the organization?
