Chapter 275: Boar Knight

Turning his head again to check the troops behind him, Giles, who turned his head sharply, couldn't help but sigh again.

In all fairness, this special unit that directly broke into the encirclement of the demon forces when Gilles was determined to fight for his life, and successfully rescued him and his legions, is indeed very strong, and the main force of it is Gilles's favorite cavalry unit. However, Gilles could not convince himself to like this unit, even if he understood that this special force was the trump card unit created by his most respected lord of El City.

The reason is simple, the cavalry units that are the main force in this special unit ride pigs.

It's a pig that rides.

It's a pig!

Pig!

This is an elite army with Boar Riders as the main force!

Every time I think about it, Gilles feels that I really can't bear this kind of stimulation......

In Gilles's impression, the so-called cavalry should be a strong force composed of some noble knights with noble temperament, elegant manners, and kind attitude. Sunshine, beautiful women, shining armor and fierce mounts are the standard equipment that cavalry units should have.

Whether it is the champion knight under the command of Gilles, or the scorching sun crusader of the Church of Dawn, or even the wolf knight of the Wolf Principality, they are definitely enough heroic cavalry troops. The Dragon's Blood Wildebeest under the Champion Knights, the Bright War Horses under the Sun Crusaders, and the Black Wolves from the Wolf Knights are all the finest mounts that can help the cavalry to come and go freely on the battlefield with 120% strength.

This cavalry unit, which can use wild boars as mounts, completely subverts Gilles's three views.

These pig-ridden knights behind Gilles. The strength is indeed very strong, but no matter how they look at it, it has nothing to do with praise words such as "noble" and "elegant". On the contrary, these boar riders look as coarse as they look. Be as cheesy as you want!

How could Gilles, who had always regarded cavalry as a synonym for nobility and toughness, bear it! Not fainting on the spot is enough to prove how tough Gilles' nerves are.

But disgust is disgust, for the strength of these boar knights, Gilles still admits.

Because this boar knight unit is a real heavy cavalry unit! The strength of every Boar Knight is as high as the ninth order! From the war pig under the seat to the knight on the pig's back, they are all wrapped in heavy armor, absolutely armed to the teeth!

The weight of the heavy armor and beast armor is certainly not something that ordinary mounts can withstand, even the dragon-blooded wildebeest under Gilles's seat. Nor did they have the strength to carry the heavy armor worn by the boar riders and the beast armor worn by the boars. However, these wild boars, whose scientific name is rock armor, are two meters tall at the shoulders and have a thick layer of rocky skin, but they are carried behind beast armor and heavily armored knights. He can also run wildly with great strides, and he runs quite smoothly.

Judging from the load, endurance, running speed, and stability when running, these boars are undoubtedly quite qualified heavy cavalry mounts.

The abilities of these boars don't stop there, the boars who have the ability to cast spells such as master stone skins. Able to attach another layer of protection to yourself and the knight on your back while fighting. This greatly reduces the chance of casualties among the Boar Riders, which is where the rock armor in their name comes from.

At the same time, like their close relatives, the saber-toothed boars can also use their saber teeth to pierce the enemies in front of them when charging, and the powerful pig necks can even allow the rock boars to fly directly to the ground when charging!

However, even though the rock boars were able to defeat the same number of dire wolves in heads-up and group fights, Gilles still didn't like them very much.

There's no way, riding a pig out or something, it feels too inferior......

Compared to those boar mounts that made him just want to cover his face when he saw it. The knights on the pig's back give Gilles a great feeling.

Gilles, who was familiar with all his men, easily recognized that most of the boar knights had been trained under him. And these knights were the best of the champion knights of that period. And the rest of the knights that Gilles didn't know also exuded a rather strong aura, which made Gilles nod his head when he saw it.

The knights were also very well equipped, except for the refined cavalry heavy armor that covered their bodies, the knights all held a large shield in their left hand and a long-handled axe and spear in their right hand. The long-handled axe spear, which was much longer than the average axe, allowed the knights to easily slash and kill enemies standing on the ground, even if they were sitting on the backs of rock boars.

Able to wield such an axe and spear with one hand while wearing heavy armor, these boar knights were obviously much stronger than their colleagues, all of them were large-shouldered, round-waisted, burly giants, and they all had a fierce aura all over their bodies.

Compared to the indomitable spirit of the champion knights, the frenzy of the Sun Crusaders. The cruelty of the wolf cavalry, these boar knights exude a temperament that is even more brutal than the orcs, and it is obvious that their usual way of fighting is the most brutal and unreasonable rush offensive.

But this does not mean that these boar knights will only bury their heads in the collision, the seven spears behind the boar knights prove that the boar knights also have long-range attack capabilities. The sharp spear is not only a weapon used by the Boar Knights to throw, but also a spare weapon in case they lose their axe guns.

In addition, under the large shield of the boar knights, there is also a long sword hidden for the boar knights to use when fighting on foot.

The fierce knights and the fierce mounts created this powerful ninth-order cavalry force. Although those boar mounts made Gilles feel very upset, he had to admit that this cavalry unit was definitely an ace force that could directly turn the tide on many battlefields!

In addition to the ninth-order boar knights, who numbered only three hundred, this force also had five hundred eighth-order champion knights, two thousand seventh-order crusader swordsmen riding wildebeests, and five thousand sixth-order marksmen who also rode wildebeests. Plus the three hundred eighth-order champion knights under the command of Gilles, one thousand seventh-order cavalry, and two thousand fifth-order marksmen with mounts. That's all Giles' strength now.

As for those third- and fourth-order spearmen and swordsmen, as well as archers, they had already died in the two battles in which Gilles broke through as the vanguard and broke off to cover the lord of the city of El.

In the face of five times the number of demon troops on your side, you can hold out until the arrival of special forces. Only these elite troops under the command of Gilles. The rest of the nobles' private soldiers and middle- and low-level troops were directly submerged under the impact of the demon army.

But Gilles, who successfully broke through from the encirclement of a large number of demon troops, couldn't find the slightest smile on his face, and some were just anxious and worried.

Due to the opening of the Gate of Hell, the demonic qi that rose to the sky directly disrupted the elemental order of the main plane, especially the Wild Wolf Principality, which had fallen in the entire territory.

The order of the elements is disrupted. The impact is that Gilles is now unable to perceive the whereabouts of the Lord of El through the proof of heroism, which makes him very anxious.

"Brother Giles! Haven't you found out your father's whereabouts yet? A slightly thin boar rider urged his mount to Gilles' side, and asked anxiously.

"I'm sorry. Prince Pirris. After being trampled on by the demon troops, the traces of the march left by the city lord have been completely destroyed. Gilles hurriedly bowed, "And under the influence of the smell of sulfur and asphalt, the scouts' hounds have no way to follow the scent of the Lord of the City. So we still have no way of knowing the whereabouts of the lord and the commoners. ”

"No need to be polite. Big Brother Giles. You're still my instructor. Pyrris shook his head, "That's what my little black pig told me, and he can't smell his father's scent, so I can only hope for your experience now." ”

Affected by the helmet, Pirris's voice changed slightly, but Gilles could still hear Pirris's immaturity and anxiety.

The youngest son of the Lord of El, the fifteen-year-old Piris Wolfe, was completely different from his prodigal older siblings. Inheriting the fighting talent of the city lord of El, he is not only strong. And it's also very kind to the civilians. The city lord of El City, who was very satisfied with this, had already passed on the position of the city lord of Grace City to him before the demon disaster came.

Of course. Pyris is still too young, and now he is only the titular Lord of Grace City, and the real power is still in the hands of the City Lord of El and Gilles.

In addition, under the arrangement of the lord of El City, Piris had been trained as a knight under Gilles, so he would say that Gillis was his instructor.

Hearing Piris's words, Giles said helplessly: "Yesterday morning, I led the troops to break the queen for the city lord, if you hadn't come in time with the troops in the afternoon, I'm afraid I would have died in the battle." But in order to break through, we charged towards the north, and it took a big circle to return to the route where the city lord evacuated. ”

"Although the lord of the city has requisitioned all the mounts and vehicles in the city, he is obviously unable to run fast with so many civilians. According to my reckoning, we should not be far from the castle lord by now. But now that the night is dark, I'm worried that we'll accidentally pass by the lord of the castle, so I ordered the troops to disperse. Gilles sighed, "I just used the clairvoyant atmosphere, and there is no trace of the city lord nearby, so now I can only hope that the scouts can find the traces of the demon troops." ”

"Huh?" Killis was obviously a little unclear about what Giles said.

"There aren't many people living in this border area." Gilles patiently explained to Piris, "The biggest target that can be targeted by the demon forces in this vicinity is the city lord and civilians. As long as we can find the traces of the demon troops, we should be able to search for the whereabouts of the city lord. ”

"I see!" It dawned on Piris that the little head under the steel helmet nodded repeatedly.

"General! A large number of demon troops have been found in the left front! It didn't take long for the anxious Pyris to wait for the scouts to find the demons.

Surprised, Pyris was about to give an order, but he abruptly withdrew his hand and looked at Gilles instead.

Gilles nodded secretly in his heart, and then waved his hand and ordered: "Prince Piris, please take the wild, cough cough, the wild boar knights quickly exterminate these demons, we are in a hurry now." ”

"No problem!" Piris replied loudly, and then rushed to the left front, while the Boar Riders quickly followed their little city lord.

"Lord of the city, there is a successor." Gilles said with a sigh, and then his expression froze, "So now, not only can't the city lord have an accident, but our little city lord can't be harmed in any way!" All of them! Come with me! ”

With his troops, Giles quickly caught up with Piris and faintly protected Piris's left and right and behind.

Excited, Piris didn't notice this, he just shouted, "Knights! Unleash a savage charge! ”

The Boar Knights didn't make any reply, just silently and quickly surrounded Piris in an array, and then quickly formed an arrow-like formation.

"Whoa! Whoa! ”

The rock boars gasped for breath and suddenly lowered their heads and began to charge!

The demons quickly noticed that something was wrong, and the demon army composed of demon babies, horned demons, hellhounds, and a small number of hell horses quickly turned around and pounced in the direction where the rumble came from!

However, the boar riders soon came into their sights.

Even people and pigs, the wild boar knights are all more than three meters tall, and their height is far taller than these middle and low-level demons, and their strength is far surpassing.

The rock armor boars whose eyes turned blood-red lowered their heads and crashed into these demons regardless of it, this huge impact, no demon clan could resist it!

All the demons standing in front of the boar rider were directly knocked into the air by the boars!

And medium-sized demons like the Hell War Horse, which are not easy to fly, were thrown in half by the wild boars with their teeth, and then shook their heads, and the long fangs that pierced into the body of the Hell War Horse were thrown away, and the floating Hell War Horses then ushered in the knights' axes and guns, and one by one they were cut in half by volley.

The hot demonic blood splattered out, but it was directly ignored by the boar knights wearing full-body armor.

After the boar knights tore a big hole in the demon formation, Gilles led the champion knights and cavalry to expand the wound even more!

Under the iron hooves of many cavalry, this group of demons was already wiped out before the crusaders and marksmen could attack.

Excited, Pyris returned to Gilles' side with the boar riders who had rushed over his head, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by a tense Gilles: "Did you hear anything?" ”

"Voice?" Pryston calmed down and listened carefully.

Unfortunately, the surroundings were a bit noisy, and Piris didn't hear any movement. But before Pyris could put his doubts on his face, Gilles's expression perked: "It's the city lord!" Someone is shouting for the lord of the castle! Right in that direction! ”

Without waiting for Pyris to ask, Gilles rushed in that direction with his troops. (To be continued.) )
