When Su Xinghe and the others began to flee to the south, Chen Kai slowly entered the ambush position with the troops who had finally teleported to Hubertin. In fact, Chen Kai has always discussed with Xu Fei the possibility of setting a trap to ambush the Drows, but when the Drow are many elites, this kind of ambush is definitely a very cost-effective deal to kill a thousand enemies and lose one thousand and a half.
It wasn't until the Drow ambushed the Central Knights, and then after Hannibal disappeared, that Chen Kai felt that the opportunity for an ambush had come. He didn't think that if the Drow beat the Central Knights so badly, he wouldn't have anything to lose. Of course, if this was just the case, it would not make Chen Kai risk losing most of his black-armored cavalry regiment, and send Su Xinghe and Guan Yu with more than 2,000 people to search for Hannibal.
The most important reason for Chen Kai to make up his mind to implement this plan that wastes money and may not succeed in stealing chickens is because one of the five ** divisions agreed to Chen Kai's request. Help them attack Drow together in battle, at the cost of Chen Kai having to let the other party into his treasury and choose a gem that suits his heart. Chen Kai did not refuse such a request, of course, he added a clause when the other party made a request, that is, it must be the gem that he currently has in his treasure house.
The old mage named John Jose Road agreed, and he appeared to have been deceived. Originally, he thought that Chen Kai's treasure trove should have a lot of high-grade gems, but the result was unexpected. There are indeed a lot of gems, but those large-volume gems are not magical gems rich in magical power, but ordinary gems that have little effect on spells. Of course, there are still magic gems, but not as many as the old mage believed.
Eighty old lady jumping down child! Old Master John Jose Lu was not only eighty years old, but he was still fooled by Chen Kai. Because of a momentary sigh, he was pulled into the chariot by Chen Kai, and stayed in the field in the middle of the night with a group of soldiers who seemed to him to be exactly like Qiu Ba. In the middle of the night, the third watch not only had to withstand the cold wind, but also had to reduce the level of mana and even help the surrounding soldiers cover up their life fluctuations. Old Master John Jose felt that he was living a tragic life, but fortunately, the gem he got from Chen Kai's treasure house was still in the past, so that the other old mages would not laugh at him.
For Old Master John Joselu, of course. The gem he had taken might not have seemed like a good thing to him. But in Chen Kai's heart, it was painful, because the gem that the other party took as a reward was the largest flame ruby. Weighing up to 580 carats, the gemstone alone looks very large and contains a very large amount of magic. The most important thing is that the gem did not come from the gem abyss, but a magic gem that Chen Kai found on the edge of the lava lake. Originally, the gem was intended for Bai Shasha to use to make a staff of zuò, but it was picked up by the old mage, and he looked extremely disappointed. When they saw the other party like that, several spellcasters, including Xu Fei, wanted to hammer each other. It's a pity that this old mage's strength is too strong. Even if he was only the third-ranked Cunzài among the five ** divisions, it was not something that Xu Fei and other small spellcasters could deal with.
However, it was precisely because of the addition of this old mage that Chen Kai had the confidence to deal with those challenges that would arise, and it was also because this old mage was willing to make a move that Chen Kai would take the risk and lay out this trap without even informing Su Xinghe and Guan Yu.
When Su Xinghe and Guan Yu Wolf Bèi led the cavalry to gallop across the wilderness, their horses had already begun to show signs of foaming at the mouth. If Chen Kai saw it, he would definitely feel distressed. Because these war horses were bought by him with great difficulty. Of course, now Su Xinghe and they don't have time to pay attention to the problem of war horses, because behind them there is an army of nearly three thousand Drow and Blackhorned Minotaurs chasing and killing. The number of enemies chasing them completely exceeded Su Xinghe's expectations, originally he thought that there would be a thousand people at most, but now it has at least tripled.
For Chen Kai, the number of drow elves and black-horned minotaurs chasing behind Su Xinghe seemed to be a bit too much of his expectation, so when Fei Yun reported the number of drow to Chen Kai, his voice trembled slightly. Because of their original plan, this time the drow were only going to eat about 2,000 soldiers on the other side at most, and at this moment, the number of drow was far more than expected, not to mention the number of six-legged war lizards and monsters that were not counted.
If the Blackhorned Minotaurs are the Drow's servant army, then the Monsters are the servant army of the Servant Army. But even such troops. The combat power of monsters is still very terrifying, especially when their number reaches a certain level. What Fei Yun saw in his eyes was such a scene, behind Su Xinghe's buttocks, there were at least two thousand Zall six-legged battle lizard cavalry, and about a thousand black-horned minotaurs, of course, they were also riding six-legged battle lizards, and behind them were at least three thousand monsters running on two legs. This amount was definitely a bit too much for Chen Kai to expect, even if they attacked the Drow in an ambush state, they might encounter failure, so Fei Yun's voice trembled when he passed the news to Chen Kai. Most importantly, he felt as if someone was behind him, and the only indication of this state was that the Drow's Shadow Slayer had appeared behind him.
The environmental perception completed by magic is a passive state, which means that Fei Yun can passively feel the changes in the surrounding environment. Or the enemies that appear on their side. But he couldn't take the initiative to show the other party. Of course, Fei Yun, who was accustomed to this state, could very keenly distinguish whether the thing that appeared in his perceptual environment was a mouse or Drow, so when a body that was obviously a little weighty slowly moved to his side less than a meter. Fei Yun suddenly moved. The palm of his hand pulled out the dagger from his waist in an instant, and then activated the violent kinetic energy at the degree that the opponent didn't have time to react, doubling his strength and degree in an instant. When the dagger stabbed out, the entire air was torn apart in an instant, and it wasn't until Fei Yun's dagger penetrated the other party's heart that the explosion of air sounded.
That Drow Elven Shadow Slayer would never understand why he was being attacked by a thief of a much lower level than him until he died, knowing that he had taken a very light foot, and the other party was even faster than him. The most important thing is why he is sluggish at the moment when the other party makes a move, if he hadn't been sluggish himself, maybe he wouldn't have died. It's a pity that this Drow will never be able to regret his mistake, because a huge opening was made in his heart, and the dagger in Fei Yun's hand directly crushed the other party's heart. Although Fei Yun's arm muscles were instantly torn apart and his blood vessels burst slightly because of the skill of Violent Kinetic Energy, he was still alive and immediately activated the shadow step after killing the enemy and escaped into the shadows again.
But because of the wounds on his hands. The Drow Shadow Killers who reacted began to track him. Fortunately, Fei Yun is not alone, because in the battle when the Drow Elf Prince attacked the city, the Dark Thirteen President of the Thieves Association owes Chen Kai a big favor. Therefore, he was also pulled over this time, and when those Drow Shadow Killers ran to chase and kill Fei Yun, they didn't expect that a Saint-Rank thief would appear behind them.
"Damn it! I should have paid Baron Berkner's door-pick! He muttered softly as the Dark Thirteen stabbed a drow in the back with his new weapon. As his arm claws are in and Ace? Completely damaged in the battle, he can now only fight with two daggers that he considered a little inferior in quality. However, his seemingly low-quality weapons are still considered excellent by other players.
Of course, even if Chen Kai is willing to give the dark thirteen salary. Dark Thirteen won't take it, because if he does, then he won't have any face at all. As a Holy Order, even if he is a thief, Dark Thirteen still has dignity. Because of his behavior of staying at Leif and Jike to flee for their lives, the lord's mansion of Daozhì Chen Kai was almost in ruins, so he appeared on this battlefield. If such a move still makes him run to ask Chen Kai for money, it is estimated that the boss of the Thieves Association will directly screw off the head of the Dark Thirteen. For the Thieves' Guild, they can listen to a liege's information. Even if he sold this information, he couldn't tell or reveal everything he knew in front of that lord. Dark Thirteen's behavior in Lord Chen Kai's mansion has basically violated this article, so if the upper echelons of the Thieves' Guild know about it, it is estimated that he will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.
So although Chen Kai used it as a gun again, Dark Thirteen didn't dare to show too much dissatisfaction, and in this battle, he was very dutiful to wipe out those tailgators who were enough to threaten his life. By the time the last Drow had been killed, the army of Drow and the Blackhorned Minotaurs had already followed Su Xinghe and rushed into the encirclement.
However, at this time, an unexpected thing happened, and in the process of dragging Hannibal's body on the board car and then running for a long distance, there was a problem with a floating magic array. The spell crystal, which had been depleted of mana, instantly collapsed with a crisp sound, and then a spark erupted from the cart. Of course, if there is only one, forget it. However, the successive flashes of sparks made the cart pulled by the horses very heavy in an instant. The rampaging cart went from 40 kilometers per hour to less than a kilometer in less than three seconds, while the towing rope began to break during the pull. Then everyone heard the painful neighing of the horses. Three of the eight horses pulling the cart fell to the ground in an instant due to the broken rope, and their legs turned into a strange Z-shape. If it is not unexpected, these three horses will be the life of the pack horses in this life, and they must survive, because after the fall, they begin to foam at the mouth, and the violent running and injury make their bodies begin to collapse, to put it bluntly, they are not far from death.
After the horses died, although the remaining five horses stopped in time, this violent running and sudden stop also caused terrible damage to their bodies. If you can get a good cultivation afterwards, it is estimated that you can recover a certain amount of running ability, and if you don't cultivate well, then you will become disabled.
Of course, in Su Xinghe's eyes, it doesn't matter what the war horse is. The important thing is that the war-drawn thing rolled out of the cart directly because of the problem of the cart suddenly stopping. The nearly ten-ton red hedron instantly broke free from the ropes that bound him. Then he tumbled down from the board truck and rolled directly on the ground for more than ten meters before stopping. For Su Xinghe, this was definitely not good news, because the huge red spar contained the most important people, or relatively important. Hannibal? Viscount Algerkins if at this time was shattered. Even if he gave Chen Kai a few mouths to say, he couldn't explain it clearly. Because no one knows whether Hannibal is dead or alive now, if he is still alive, then he will definitely die after being shattered by the spar, and Chen Kai will be unlucky at that time. But even if he is dead, if the spar is broken, it will be broken after death, Chen Kai can't say anything clearly.
But in this state, it was impossible for Chen Kai to jump out of the ambush and run to protect the spare, and the most important thing was that he was too far away, and he didn't see what happened to Su Xinghe and them. He only knew that Su Xinghe's wild footsteps suddenly stopped, and they were only less than a kilometer away from running to a safe place. With just one more kilometer, they can run out of the encirclement and lead the drow behind them into the trap.
"Hey, hey! Old Sue! What the hell are you doing? Chen Kai directly shouted at Su Xinghe in the team channel with a roaring voice. Because he had already seen the six thousand Drow army that appeared not far behind Su Xinghe.
"Brother Kai! Lao Su is blind now, and that Viscount has fallen to the ground now! Guan Yu's face was a little unsightly, and he saw the Zhuoer army behind him. However, it would not be a good thing to let Hannibal's body fall into the hands of the Drows, so Su Xinghe could only find a way to put a rope on the spar and prepare to drag the spar away. But this idea is a bit unrealistic, because Su Xinghe has a tragic thing, that is, they don't have enough ropes. At the same time, the surrounding ground was not suitable for dragging such a heavy hedron, and most importantly, due to the weight of the hedron it was now stuck in the dirt. It takes a lot of effort and time just to pull out the hedrons, and what they lack most is time.
"I'm rubbing! How so? Make no mistake! You gave me such a thing at a critical moment! Chen Kai felt the urge to scold his mother when he heard Guan Yu's words, because he knew very well what the outcome of Hannibal's body would be if it fell into the hands of the Drows. So now his brain is starting to twitch, and he almost has a manic urge to kill. But no matter how manic he is, he can't let Su Xinghe leave Hannibal's body and run away by himself, if he really does that, it is estimated that the remnants of the Central Knights will come to him desperately.
"Old Su! I'll give you the daunting task of guarding Hannibal's bastard body or corpse for me! Gain ten minutes for Lao Tzu. No! Five minutes!! Chen Kai finally shouted at Su Xinghe in a roaring voice, he knew that it was impossible to hold on to Su Xinghe for ten minutes in their current state, and it was impossible even five minutes. After a long time of running away on their horses, their mounts were already overdrawn, and even some of them could no longer run after they stopped.
The cavalry that loses the war horse has become infantry, and the change from having a horse to no horse is estimated to be the thing that many people want to see the most, but for the real cavalry, it is definitely a tragic thing to have a horse and no horse. Warhorses are not only their mounts, but also supporters of their armor. Cavalrymen can carry heavy armor, and because part of the weight is borne by the horses, once they lose their horses, they must use their bodies to support this part of the weight. This is definitely not a good thing for people who consume a lot of body. The most important thing is that the enemy who pursues them is also the cavalry, and once they lose their degree advantage, they are weak in the face of cavalry.
Hearing Chen Kai's roar, Su Xinghe's face turned red, and he knew that this was definitely a very difficult task. If he can't hold out until Chen Kai has deployed his forces, then this ambush will become the beginning of the weakening of Burkner. A town that has lost a large number of elite troops may become the next target of the Drow, which may not be possible, but for the town of Burkner, it will definitely be a heavy blow to the soldiers once they fight.
"Attention everyone! Dismount! Ready for battle!! With a crazy roar, Guan Yu's voice sounded in the ears of those cavalrymen faster than Su Xinghe. Cheng Dù Guan Yu was much more familiar with these horse thieves than Su Xinghe, and his orders were more easily accepted by them. Therefore, even if Guan Yu is a little suspicious of overstepping the command. But Su Xinghe didn't blame the other party. He knew that Guan Yu was more qualified than himself to command these cavalry.
When Guan Yu's voice sounded, Su Xinghe pulled out the giant sword he was carrying. Then he poured a bottle of body recovery potion into his mouth, and then stood at the forefront of the entire cavalry line. Although Su Xinghe is no longer good at commanding these cavalry, he will definitely not be weaker than any cavalry in battle.
While Su Xinghe and the others began to prepare to fend off the Drow's attack, Chen Kai began to roar and give orders to his soldiers. The soldiers who were originally hiding began to crawl out of the hiding place one after another, and then moved forward little by little to prepare to change the ambush location, the most important thing is that Chen Kai had to expose the ** master Mr. John in advance, and let him release spells to assist Su Xinghe and them, this is the only way Chen Kai can give Su Xinghe their support in a short period of time.
