Chapter 47, Treasure Thunder Rapier
Although volcanoes can be regarded as scenic spots, in this world, with the current level of economy and civilization, it is impossible to give birth to the so-called tourism economy.
Especially this place is relatively remote, coupled with the lush forest, ordinary people will not be willing to come here, which can be called a rare population.
But just because people are rare doesn't mean there won't be any.
Zhou Mingyue had only been relaxing for less than half a month, and from time to time the flying dragons who had risen into the air to scout the surroundings had sent back the news that an army was heading towards the volcano.
Army?
Zhou Mingyue was a little surprised, how could there be an army coming over in such a place where birds don't?
However, when he rode on the Wyvern and looked at it from a distance, he found that this army was under the banner of Count Max, and there were about 500 people.
He immediately understood.
It turned out that Count Max had come for revenge!
It's right to think about it.
Count Max has suffered such a big loss this time, but he, the culprit, is still squatting in his territory, and no one can bear such a thing!
Don't ask Count Max how he knows, it's the guide knight who asked.
Therefore, after sending Viscount Hanks away, Count Max began to prepare to deal with Zhou Mingyue.
After a terrible defeat, Count Max was able to muster more than 500 people, which was already very good.
Of course, the Earl is not stupid.
In the previous battle, he had seen how powerful the wyvern was, so he rushed to the royal city to invite someone who could deal with the wyvern.
A court marquis named Hannes!
Otherwise, how can it be said that Count Max is more well-connected and well-informed than Viscount Hanks.
Although this court marquis named Hannis has not been able to activate the bloodline, so that he has completely lost his territory in his generation, he has a treasure!
Of course, what the Noble Phantasm is, and how powerful it is, Count Max is not very clear.
But he knew that the ancestor of the Marquis of Hannes was made a marquis by killing a thunder eagle that was ravaging the kingdom of Flor with that treasure!
Think about it, even the extremely powerful Thunder Eagle can be killed, but can't a few flying dragons be killed?
Therefore, this time towards the volcano, Count Max is still majestic in his heart, at least he trusts the Marquis of Hannes in his heart, well, to be precise, he trusts the treasure.
Zhou Mingyue didn't know anything about Count Max inviting a Marquis of Hannes.
But the War Magic Workshop+ is still pumping magma from the crater, so it is naturally impossible for him to push it.
With Zhou Mingyue's order, the soldiers who were originally scattered all over the forest immediately gathered and rushed towards the army led by Count Max.
The two armies soon met on the banks of the Blackwater River.
The six ballistas fired their bolts at the first moment.
The bloody scene of a three-meter-long crossbow bolt passing through the crowd instantly awakened the horrific memories of Count Max's soldiers.
With just a wave of crossbow arrows, Count Max's soldiers wavered, and more than a dozen soldiers turned and fled in fright.
If it weren't for the knights who pressed the formation to kill them decisively, I am afraid that in an instant, the entire military formation would collapse.
Don't expect the soldiers in this world to be brave, many times, they are more desperate for their lives and know better when it is safest to escape.
But at this moment, a middle-aged man in chain mail beside Count Max pulled out the thin sword hanging from his waist, and the thin sword was instantly filled with beating lightning sparks, and then slashed towards the opposite side.
Boom Boom Boom Boom .......
A series of thunderclaps rang out, and lightning bolts appeared high in the sky out of thin air, and then fell.
The power of these lightning bolts exceeded Zhou Mingyue's expectations, and all the soldiers who were struck by lightning, whether they were guards or guards spearmen, then the whole body was full of electricity, turned into coke and fell.
I'll go!
What kind of weapon is this?!!
Seeing this scene, Zhou Mingyue couldn't help but be a little afraid.
Fortunately, I am cowardly enough, otherwise, I am afraid that I will also be served in such a pot.
After a burst of lightning and thunder, Zhou Mingyue's guards infantry at the front, most of the guards spearmen fell, and less than twenty people survived, even the two main priests failed to release the healing technique in time, and three crossbow carts were completely damaged by lightning and could not be repaired.
Fortunately, since the cavalry charge required a certain distance, he put the guards cavalry at the rear, otherwise, this wave of thunder and lightning would have caused a huge loss beyond imagination.
But even so, Zhou Mingyue's heart was so painful that he couldn't breathe.
No way, this War Magic Workshop + consumes too many resources for each team of troops.
If I had to use a metaphor, one of the legs of these classes should be made of gold.
You must know that even when he was fighting outside Max Castle, he didn't have such a loss, and all those who were injured were treated in an instant by the healing technique released by the main priest, and it was impossible for him to fall to the point of fate.
Of course, heartache is heartache, and it is impossible for Zhou Mingyue to stand and be beaten, so he immediately ordered everyone to charge and attack!
The three surviving ballistas were the first to launch a counterattack, and with three thuds, three stout crossbow arrows were fired towards the Marquis of Hannes in an instant.
Then the thirty guards cavalry began to use their spurs to drive their horses, accelerating and rushing over.
Otherwise, Count Max was willing to invite the Marquis of Hannes to come over and help with a lot of money.
Seeing the three crossbow arrows shooting, the Marquis of Hannes was extremely decisive, and the thin sword in his hand swung towards the crossbow arrows that were fired, and in a turn, several lightning bolts fell, and the crossbow arrows flew out crookedly.
It's a treasure!
Zhou Mingyue immediately remembered the thin sword in the other party's hand.
But worry about it, the battle still has to be fought.
The Guards cavalry had already picked up speed, and the eight-headed wyvern had risen from the forest and were heading towards him.
The Marquis of Hannes looked a little anxious, and the use of the thin sword was not without a price.
Each time a lightning bolt is triggered, it consumes some of the wielder's stamina.
If it were a knight to use this rappier, it should be no problem to use it seven or eight times.
But although Marquis Hannis is a marquis, he has not activated the bloodline, he is just an ordinary person, at most, he has been trained in martial arts for more than ten years.
Under such circumstances, after urging two lightning bolts, his strength was already very depleted.
But at this time, two more waves of enemies rushed over.
Whether to deal with those cavalry, or against the wyverns, that's a question.
The Marquis of Hannes could not help but fall into deep contemplation.
Well, no matter how the Marquis of Hannes pondered, the problem needed to be solved.
Cavalry bar?!!
