Text Chapter 100 The Night of Yelantil 9

"Disperse, disperse!" The centurion hurriedly ordered the surrounding knights to spread around, which made the already sparse formation even more sparse.

Other cavalry could disperse directly, but the knights hanging the iron meteor net could not disperse immediately. At this time, the hook on the Iron Meteor Net was tightly attached to the saddle of the warhorse, and it would take a lot of time for the knights to remove the hook from the saddle.

After eating a soldier, the Bone Giant immediately set his sights on the Iron Meteor Knight, who was unable to move freely, and rushed straight forward.

Seeing that he was in danger, the chief realized that it was impossible to untie the iron meteor at this time. So he could only jump off the warhorse, and then hurriedly beckoned: "Dismount, dismount, all hurry up!" ”

So the soldiers jumped off their horses, drew their sabers, and withdrew behind their horses, which were already in disarray.

As long as it is a living person, whether it is an animal or a human, it is regarded as an object of attack by the undead. Therefore, instead of attacking humans directly, it grabbed a war horse and tried to swallow it into its belly. At this time, the power of the bone giant was truly displayed, and it saw that it very easily pulled ten war horses into the air, ready to lift them above their heads and enjoy them slowly.

Fortunately, the huge weight of the ten war horses directly broke the iron chains, and some of the saddles were also torn off, and in the end, only two war horses remained in the hands of the bone giant. Two or three horses not far from the ground, after falling to the ground, were instinctively driven by fear to run towards their masters. As for the remaining war horses, they fell from the ground and died directly on the ground because they were too high off the ground.

Although there were only two horses left in his hand, the bone giant still swallowed the war horse in a big gulp, and the scene could be described as terrible. Because of his lack of intelligence, the Bone Giant swallowed the meteor in the process of devouring the war horse. As a result, his teeth, which were made of deformed bones, were also shattered by the meteor planet.

However, this did not cause any substantial damage to the bone giant, and the broken teeth were quickly replaced by other skeletons. At this time, the soles of its feet had become a bloody slaughterhouse, and a large number of undead gathered at its feet, and those undead were frantically gnawing on the dead horses.

Instead of competing with the group of undead for food, the Bone Giant stepped on the ground without looking, and trampled dozens of skeletons directly into pieces. Immediately after that, the fragments attached to the bone giant's body like a magnet, causing the bone giant's body to expand in half a circle.

"Lord Chrysov, what kind of monster is that?"

Chrysov sighed, "If I'm not mistaken, it's probably the Bone Giant, a type of deformed undead." ”

"What do you mean by a deformed undead, my lord?"

"Know the centipede skeleton? That is a type of deformed undead. In general, a deformed undead is a special type of undead made from a patchwork of mutilated corpses. Most of these undead were dismembered during their lifetime, and they were also buried together after death, so that some deformed undead could be born. Maybe it's because such an undead race is composed of several undead races, so this kind of undead race is more powerful in terms of strength. ”

Chrysov waved his hand to slash down an undead beside him, "There are some mages of the evil sect who choose to stitch their bodies together after death, so there is a high chance that a deformed undead will be born. Not only humans, but sometimes, these evil mages will also sew the corpses of animals onto human bodies, so that the beast corpses can be born. The Beast Corpse Soldier can be said to be one of the most powerful types of all the deformed undead, at least in terms of combat effectiveness, far superior to the undead of the same level. I think you should know that in the mansions of some nobles, there are some monsters with animal bodies but human heads. In fact, those monsters are the so-called beast corpse soldiers, but they are not offensive after special treatment, but have become the playthings of the nobles who hunt for curiosity......"

The knight interrupted Krysov's endless science: "So, my lord, how do you kill this bone giant?" ”

"We can't kill this monster, if we want to kill this monster, in addition to letting the adventurers in the city dispatch, the only thing left is to use siege equipment. Equipment such as catapults and magic crossbows should be able to deal a fatal blow to the Bone Giant. It's a pity that we don't have siege weapons at all. Even with siege weapons, we, as cavalry, would not be able to deliver a fatal blow to the Bone Giant. ”

"What then?"

"There is no way, there is only one way to retreat. It's up to us to draw the Bone Giants and order the remaining knights to break through from the front. ”

"Order!" Krisov's herald took out his horn and sounded the order to break through the frontal to the soldiers who were fighting bloodily.

Because it was a frontal breakout, not an order to retreat. Therefore, the knights did not disperse in a hurry, but raised their whips, urging the horses to charge forward desperately.

In order to create a chance for his men to survive, Krisov drew his magic staff and unleashed a healing spell at the Bone Giant. For humans, regeneration can restore human vitality; However, for the undead, the restoration technique is comparable to poison.

When the light of the Restoration Technique hits the Bone Giant's body, some of the bones on the Bone Giant immediately fall to the ground. However, the number of bones that fell to the ground was insignificant compared to the Bone Giant's massive body, so it didn't cause much damage to the Bone Giant.

Krisov's attack succeeded in drawing the bone giant's attention to himself.

Krisov, for his part, led his own guards straight and rushed down in the direction that was slightly deviated from the retreat of the large cavalry force.

Krisov's personal guards were much stronger than ordinary cavalry, and their combat effectiveness was basically on the edge of the second order. Compared to those ordinary soldiers who are less than the first rank, they can directly attack the line of the undead without ignoring the formation.

The pro-guards did not simply flee in one direction, but constantly shuttled back and forth among the corpses of the undead. He didn't do this to hold back the bone giants, but to find the soldiers who were still stranded in the tide of corpses.

Krisov boldly went in the direction of the mass of corpses, because he knew that in the places where the corpses were most dense, there were often the living. Although sometimes they encountered cavalry that had been gnawed to pieces, more often than not, they were always able to save a lot of their companions.

"It's Lord Krisov, Lord Krisov hasn't abandoned us!"

When the knights who fought to the death in the midst of the corpse found that their commander had not abandoned them, they would often boost their morale and slash the undead around them desperately, joining forces with Chrysov's personal guards.

Krisov's presence is like a flag, and as long as he is there, the battle there will take on a one-sided situation.

The knights followed him without hesitation, even knowing that there was a terrible monster behind them that could kill them all.

In the continuous rush, Crisov was able to save seventy or eighty fallen knights, and the cavalry in his hands more than doubled, which made it more difficult for Krisov to get rid of the bone giant. Knights who joined the party were killed by the Bone Giants, and new knights were added to the ranks of the fleeing places.

The rush in the tide of corpses not only consumed their physical strength, but also the endurance of the war horses. Both men and horses were in a very tired state, but each of them did not dare to slow down.

Just when everyone didn't know when they would be able to escape from the corpse tide, a soldier pointed to the distance and shouted: "Look and see, you have to rush out of the corpse tide ahead, and work harder!" ”

Everyone hurried towards the edge of the corpse tide, as long as they escaped the corpse tide, they could use the swift speed of the war horse to shake off the difficult bone giant.

After a charge, Chrysov managed to lead the cavalry out of the encirclement. Looking at the skeletal giants who were following after him, Chrisov turned his horse's head in pleasure and led his army in a detour towards the large army.

"Send a herald and order the whole army to assemble!"

The herald's horn sounded again, calling out to the cavalry who had left the battlefield. Hearing the order, the large army immediately turned their horses and galloped in the direction where Krisov was.

As Krisov had predicted, once out of the tide of corpses, the skeletal giants, who were only a little bigger, would not be able to catch up with the cavalry. After five or six minutes of galloping, the cavalry managed to shake off the bone giants and complete the round with the large army.

The undead often rely on the breath of the living to attack, and when the breath of the living disappears, the undead will walk in the direction of the strongest breath of the living that he can capture. The Bone Giants gave up their pursuit of Krisov's cavalry and instead rushed towards the city of Jerantil, where the breath of the living was even stronger.

Escaping from danger, Chrisov did not choose to rest, but rode his war horse to patrol the knights who had survived the tide of corpses. However, in the darkness of the night, Chrysov could not completely count all the surviving knights, so he could only order again:

"The centurion is out of the ranks, and immediately count the number of his troops!"

As Chrisov finished speaking, seven centurions walked out of the group, waving their sabers and signaling their men to move closer to him.

Chrisov silently looked at the seven centurions who were calling for soldiers, and couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart, and couldn't help but muttered the names of the remaining two centurions: "Konir, Davao......"

Chrisov turned his head to look at the surging corpse tide in the distance, which had already poured into the city of Yelandir, and hundreds of undead people were swarming into the ruined walls of the city.

Krysov's heart was hot, and he subconsciously wanted to prepare to spur his horse towards the tide of corpses, but he had to press his impulse. He knew very well that his subordinates were now exhausted, and if they wanted to regain their combat effectiveness, they would have to wait for more than ten minutes.

At this time, his adjutant Oakley walked up to him, "Lord Krysov, the count is complete!" ”

Krysov closed his eyes, "Oakley, how many people survived?" ”

"Seven hundred and thirty-one people survived, but the Centurion of Knier and the Centurion of Davao are nowhere to be found......"

Krysov clenched his fists tightly, and then silently put them down, "Got it, you tell everyone to rest first, and when they recover their strength, everyone will rush with me......"

"Yes!" Oakley turned to leave.
