"Captain, a hostile target has been observed."

Kite lowered his voice and said to Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng was responsible for monitoring the movements of the small group of cavalry inside the church, and the kite was responsible for observing whether there would be any redundant ambushes outside the church.

Instead of seeing it, the kite saw a group of monsters surrounded by a scarlet liquid.

The monster still had the appearance of a wolf-like creature, but it was more than three times the size of an ordinary timberwolf, and the height of standing up alone was enough to rival that of an ordinary human male.

If an ordinary person encounters a monster in the forest, even if he has a knife on his body, it is estimated that he will only be torn to pieces.

The problem is that there is more than one giant wolf coming out of the edge of the forest now, and there are eight of them that can be observed in Lu Cheng's line of sight.

The moment they came out of the forest... The cute walking beasts that were tethered outside were frightened and let out an uneasy-like cry.

"Prepare to meet the enemy, wait for my gesture."

Lu Cheng didn't think the wolves were here for a walk, they could clearly smell the presence of something alive in the church.

This is the church they're targeting...

Whether it is the road city hidden on the second floor of the church, or the cavalry squad and refugees on the first floor of the church, all of them are the targets of this giant wolf's attack.

"The target comes into range."

In this way, the kite reminds Lu Cheng that he can give the order to fire.

The pictorial on the side also looked at Lu Cheng with puzzled eyes, as if asking 'how long will it take to fire?' ’

The wolves were less than 800 meters away from the church, and if they took a step and ran, they could rush into the church in less than a few seconds.

As the wolves slowly approached the church, an aura of fear spread through the night...

Lu Cheng vaguely felt that someone behind him was pulling the corner of his clothes, and subconsciously looked back and found that it was Nuoyi.

She pursed her mouth tightly, looking like she was about to cry, and her little hands clutched Lu Cheng's clothes tightly, as if this was the only way to give her some comfort.

"Cover your ears."

Lu Cheng pointed a finger at his ear to remind Noi.

The sound of gunfire at this distance was enough to damage the eardrums, and Noi's body was too weak to withstand such a large gunshot.

Although Noi was scared, he was still very obedient and covered his ears with his hands.

In the meantime, the leader of the cavalry in the church had already led people out of the church to meet the giant wolves.

There were only four of the seven-man cavalry squad who could walk out of the church with their weapons in hand, and it was questionable whether the four of them could take out a giant wolf, let alone face an entire wolf pack.

For them... This battle was a battle to the death with no chance of victory.

But for Lu Cheng's team, this can only be regarded as a target training.

………………

"What are you still doing here?"

Hubert glanced back at the refugees in the church, who he had told to hurry out of this dangerous place.

But the refugees had no intention of running away, and they all knelt on the ruins, muttering something incessantly.

"Didn't you hear me!" Hubert angrily grabbed the leader by the refugee by the collar and shouted at him.

"Thunder... The god of thunder will shelter us... And ......," said the refugee, looking fearfully at the view outside the church, "we... Where can you go? ”

Where can we run?

With this sentence, Hubert let go of the refugee, who broke free and continued to whisper prayers as he clung to his daughter.

In this case, all they could do was pray to the gods, and it was impossible to escape from the pursuit of those beasts.

But does praying to God work?

Hubert clenched the spear in his hand and slowly stepped on the ruins to the outside of the church.

The unequivocal answer he can give is useless!

If God really would protect them, then neither his sons, nor his grandsons, nor his wives would die.

So Hubert didn't believe in the existence of God at all.

Hubert walked out of the church with his sword in hand without saying a word, and he didn't even give orders to his soldiers.

Because now there is no point in ordering anything ... To Hubert's surprise, there were still three soldiers who could still fight with him, including the seventeenth princess.

But that's the end of it.

Hubert clenched the sword in his hand and watched the wolves slowly approaching them in the distance.

"General, this is the last battle, right?" A soldier who followed Hubert whispered.

"It's the last one."

Hubert replied in a low voice, and the soldier smiled almost in relief when he heard this.

"It's not over yet! At least we're alive now! ”

The voice of the princess Elena rang in the ears of the soldiers, and as the only girl in the army, she rode to the front of the line on a walking beast and pulled down the visor from her helmet.

"General Hubert, give orders." Princess Elena said.

Is... Naïve.

The thought came to General Hubert as he looked at the princess, but soon he shouted out what he said most often.

"Soldiers! Raise your spears! ”

Hubert rode directly onto the walking beast tethered to the outside, and there was no point in hiding inside the building in this case.

And he used to be the head of the First Knights of the Kingdom ... Dying in humiliation inside the building was an insult to him.

Hubertra removed the visor from his helmet and aimed his spear at the wolves in the distance... With all the strength in his body, the voice was so big that his throat seemed to be torn apart, and he shouted the last command of his life.

"Charge!"

Hubert flicked the reins from his hand, and the walking beast let out a hissing sound and galloped towards the giant wolf in the distance.

The three soldiers behind him followed Hubert and rushed towards the wolves.

At this moment, the thought that came to Hubert's mind turned out to be, 'It's not bad to die on the battlefield like this.'"

But the heavens did not do what he wanted, and the walking beast under his crotch was suddenly frightened, and stopped abruptly in the process of running, and then raised its front hooves.

Hubert couldn't keep his balance, fell off the back of the walker, and fell into the mud...

The frightened walking beast had already run in the opposite direction, and the moment Hubert raised his head as he fell to the ground, the huge body of a giant wolf blocked its vision.

Damn the gods, can't even this wish to die honorably as a knight?

Hubert stared at the giant wolf's fangs flowing with scarlet liquid, and in desperation suddenly heard... A deafening sound.

Sound... The sound of thunder?

The first thought that popped into Hubert's mind was this, and the next second... The head of the giant wolf in front of him suddenly burst uncontrollably.

The scarlet liquid that had surrounded the wolf's head splattered to the ground as the head shattered, and even spilled some of it onto the surface of Hubert's helmet, falling through the cracks in the helmet onto Hubert's cheek.

Thunder?

Hubert trembled and rose from the ground, replaced by the giant wolf that had lost its head and fell at his feet without a sound.
