Chapter 169: Terror Knight
Seeing Sethia rushing out of the ruins, Luo Wei suddenly became a head and two big, I don't know if he has a special talent for being chased, he was chased by the werewolf captain in the first team battle, chased by the bone dragon in the dawn defense battle, and now he is chased by the vampire queen.
He glanced back, and was surprised to find that Cecia was standing motionless in the doorway, and at first he thought that Cescia did not want to chase in the sun, but later found that she was already bathed in the sun when she stood there, and there was no fear of the sun.
What is she doing? Luo Wei really didn't understand the intention of Cethia to suddenly give up the pursuit, but of course it was better not to chase, and they could escape more safely.
However, things didn't go the way Luo Wei imagined.
Sercia stood in place, and suddenly plunged the Blood Hell into the ground, and in just an instant, the huge blood energy frantically surged to the ground, spreading out like dense spider webs, turning into demonic tentacles and surging in all directions.
In the next second, a bitter and piercing spell came out of Cethea's red lips, echoing on this barren black soil, and with this terrible spell, the scarlet blood on the ground became richer than ever, rapidly eating away at the surrounding land, and finally completely covering it, looking like a carpet made of blood from a distance.
Cethia gripped the Blood Prison tightly, and as the last word of the spell settled, a terrifying mutation occurred!
The land covered in scarlet blood suddenly rose and began to churn like a storm of blood, and in the boiling blood, it seemed as if something was about to break through the ground.
The first to emerge from the raging blood was a large number of strange flags, all of which were white on a white background, black crosses with the murderous breath of iron and blood engraved in the middle, and there was no wind at this time, but these flags kept dancing wildly in the surging energy.
Eric also witnessed this scene at this time, the old man froze in place, his eyes gradually glared bigger than a copper bell, his mouth could almost fit three eggs, and the whole person muttered as if he had lost his soul: "Scandinavian cross..."
Al turned her head when she heard the sound, she looked at the cross flag full of death and slaughter in the distance, and covered her red lips in disbelief: "No... The Lord is above, this is impossible..."
Countless flags broke through the ground, and soon brought out the things behind, which were knights riding tall horses, but from the eyes behind the helmets, which were more scarlet than blood, it could be seen that these "knights" were no longer human, and the horses under them were no longer human, and so were the horses under them, each horse had transparent saliva from its mouth, and the scarlet eyes seemed to suck people into a bottomless hell.
The number of knights rising from the Crimson Sea was endless, almost filling the visible horizon, and the fluttering cross banners weaved in the air to form a funeral belt, as if the death sentence was carried out with iron-blooded slaughter.
The terrifying warhorses from Hell let out a deafening neigh, and they raised their front hooves, demonic and furious to unleash a vast death charge ahead.
The knights on horseback had blood-like eyes, and even though they couldn't see their faces behind the helmets clearly, the terrifying aura and the neighing of the horses were mixed together, forming a coercion that was enough to crush everything, and the armor on their bodies was covered under the black cross robes, and the huge cavalry spears in their hands bloomed with the cold glow of death, and they did not hide their thirst for blood.
The number of these knights from hell was not counted, because they were innumerable, and they were dead horses as far as the eye could see, with banners and spears intertwined.
Eric of the old Germans knew better than anyone the signs and identities of these knights, the white robes embroidered with black crosses, the iron blood of the same lineage, the noble pride of Germany, the invincible Teutonic warriors, and the iconic Scandinavian cross, this legion that rushed out of the Scarlet Sea was the Teutonic Knights!
Once famous as one of the three major orders of the Middle Ages, the Teutonic Order suffered a devastating blow in the Battle of Thanlenberg and disbanded its military establishment at the hands of Napoleon in the early 19th century.
In the New Era, the Crusader Church, which had seized Europe, reorganized the Teutonic Knights and once again established them as the Order's war force, fighting for the glory of the Lord.
Unlike the modern battlefield where hot weapons are rampant, the Crusader's combat mode is more retro than that of the Wilderness Evolvers of the Republic, and although the Knights have guns and artillery units, these valiant knights prefer to fight in heavy armor and armed with cold weapons.
Don't underestimate this retro combat mode, the equipment on their bodies is all from the cube, invulnerable, and even the war horses under them are from the cube breed, not belonging to this world, and these knights themselves belong to extremely powerful evolutionaries, their physical fitness is terrifying, and they also have the "Divine Seal" after being baptized, a mysterious power from inner faith and glory, unstoppable!
Without artillery support, an elite Crusader army could easily crush even a formed battalion of light tanks.
"Lord, this seems to be the eleventh detachment of the Teutonic Knights who came to the aid of the Republican Radiance two years ago." Al looked at these knights who had risen from the sea of blood in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice, "I heard that this unit was missing on the way here, why did it appear here..."
The invasion of the cube in the first year of Honkai was largely arranged according to population density, and the European continent was vast and sparsely populated, so even if the Crucifixion did not have a steel division like the Federation, due to the low intensity of the invasion and the bravery of the knights, it quickly suppressed the mutant creatures, and then divided the troops to the eastern continent to help, and it was during this time that El came to the Radiance of the Republic.
However, in the bloody battle of Honkai for 3 years, the Crucifixion did not want to get involved in the conflict head-on, and withdrew most of the knights, while Al volunteered to stay, so there was a series of things that later joined the Dawn team.
"I've heard of a legend before, but I've always thought it was fake, so I didn't take it seriously." Ghost Hand looked at the terrifying knight in the distance with a gloomy expression, and said in a low voice, "I heard that high-level vampires can devour a person's soul while devouring blood, allowing it to merge with themselves, blend and transform in the body, and then reshape the body and release it. However, when it is released again, the devoured person is no longer the original person, but a soulless dead person who will fight frantically for his master! ”
"That is to say... Everyone who is eaten by a high-ranking vampire will become one of her soldiers and become a member of that army of the undead! ”
