Chapter 20: The Storm of Beasts

Shuttle castle.

"How are the civilians entering the city?" said Linko, staring at the faint light on the arrow tower in the distance, without looking back.

"Men have been sent to sound the alarm and organize the civilians to enter, but I am afraid that the speed of the beast tide will not have time to move into the castle and the gate will have to be closed!" Burton was a little anxious, but his voice was still calm.

Linko turned and walked away, saying loudly as he went, "Burton! carry out my order: the gates are not to be closed until the last civilian enters the castle!" he quickly walked down the city wall, slapping the armor of the family guards along the way, "The Mutes family will never abandon any of their people!Come on, warriors of the Mutes family, put on your armor!Hold on to your weapons!Follow me, Cohen Mutes!To defend the honor of the Mutes family!To protect the safety of all the people!" He jerked up his pitch "Kill !!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

His resolute actions and incendiary words instantly aroused the courage of all the guards who had been buried deep in their hearts for a long time, and he was like a natural leader, so that all the old men in the guards who had retreated from the battlefield regained the feeling of the battlefield at this moment! The well-trained rookie guards were also not stage frightened, but full of excitement!

"No, Young Master Cohen, give me such an opportunity Old Brooke, you just need to watch your warriors pay their loyalty to the family here!" Brooke quickly squeezed away the excited guards and appeared in front of Linko to stop him, his eyes were naked concern and even pleading, "The Mutters family can do without Brooke, but not without you Cohen, you have to understand!!"

"I know what I'm doing!" Linko said categorically, "Here! On the battlefield! You should never expect a man from the Mutes family to choose to hide behind the family army!Get out of the way, Brooke!" Linko roared madly, at this moment, he was as fierce as a lion! The aura from Cohen in his soul was surging and almost dominated his emotions, making up for the lack of ferocity in his heart! A glory unique to the world of blood and fire that he would never have been able to experience even in his previous life!

Lin Ke looked at Brooke, who didn't give a step in front of him, and suddenly said solemnly, "In that case, Brooke obeys his orders! You and I will lead twenty-five people to form two teams to launch a frontal charge to stop the momentum of the vanguard beast tide and buy time for the civilians to avoid the castle! After that, don't fall in love and turn to both sides to chisel through the weak beast herds that have not all crossed the river yet, and gather in front of the stone house group! Time is pressing, while these ordinary beasts have not yet fully gathered!"

Linko's words were both an order and an explanation, "Execution!

Brooke's brows were fiercely tangled, but he finally made the choice that a knight should have, and performed a very formal knightly salute.

"Yes, Lord Cohen!"

――――――――――――――――――――

The civilians fleeing under the city gate consciously gave way to both sides, making way for the knights who galloped out of the castle.

Brooke took the lead in leading twenty-five knights to gallop out with full body armor, and without waiting for Linko's team to rush out, he took the lead in leading the knights to rush towards the beasts in the direction of the stone bridge with a wave of his hand!

Linko and his group of twenty-five knights followed, still wearing his leather armor and rushed out in the middle of several knights in full armor, who did not refuse the protection of the guards.

Burton, who had already rushed to the direction of the city gate and was trying his best to appease the civilians, looked at Lin Ke worriedly, and Lin Ke nodded calmly to him the moment he flashed out of the city gate.

"Young master, the number of beasts is increasing," Behind Lin Ke, it was Xue'er who was also wearing a leather armor! At this moment, Xue'er was holding a large bow with a strange shape, and in the center of the bow was inlaid a huge but glowing gray pearl, which was the Sea King Li Bead obtained from the black boy Neil.

"Neil, what do you think?" As he ran towards the herd, Linko looked unusually calm, and no one could tell that this was the first time he had faced a terrifying battlefield, especially since he couldn't handle the *mount well.

"It's not a big problem," Neil was wearing full body armor, barely discernible from the outside, and he was protecting Linko's left side at the moment, "The beasts are not increasing fast enough to thicken the herd, but it will cause confusion among the beasts that have already crossed the river, after all, they are just a group of beasts, and they will not affect your chiseling plan." ”

Lin Ke nodded, he loved military affairs in his previous life, but at best, he was a military enthusiast in the cold weapon period, even if he added the tactical knowledge taught in the family school in Cohen's memory, it was at best a piece of paper and a showcase, but it was not as good as Neil, who had experienced too many tribal battles in the Orc Empire.

The team of Kung Fu Brooke, who spoke, had already met the beast herd, only to see that a fiery red energy six or seven meters long suddenly surged from Brooke's two-handed greatsword as an arrowhead, condensing into a majestic giant sword that was almost liquid flowing!

From a distance, Brooke, who looked small, actually raised a huge giant holy sword!

The shiny greatsword slashed downward!

With a loud "boom", Lin Ke only saw a large area of dirt mixed with the broken beast body being thrown into the air, the violent light illuminated the dark earth with a violent air current, and the dense beast herd was forcibly opened a huge gap, and the knights who followed raised their spears to pick the beasts that tried to attack on both sides to the side, leaving a corpse!

"It's amazing," Xue'er couldn't help but exclaim, looking at the fiery red giant sword in the distance, which still shone a small piece of heaven and earth, but only a small circle, flew up and down, and the beasts dismembered one after another everywhere they went.

Lin Ke was far from being as calm as he seemed, and he somewhat understood why the Mighty Men had become a key force in the army that claimed to be able to break the formation.

But there was no room on the battlefield for them to continue to shake up.

Soon, the team led by Lin Ke will meet the herd!

Lin Ke slowly raised his right hand, and a terrifying energy began to surround him!

Cavalry charge!

It was not Lin Ke who was the first to attack.

Just when Lin Ke was still brewing a powerful attack magic, Xue'er had already taken the first step, and the cavalry rushed into the formation from three hundred meters to two hundred meters away from the beast herd in just a few seconds, Xue'er shot more than a dozen arrows with a faint blue light, the huge beast group made her hardly need to aim with her superb archery skills, and the arrows fused with magical power crossed the sky like meteors, both the range, speed and power were amazing!

The team continued to charge, but when they came closer, the guards found that the herd of beasts that were supposed to block the direction of the cavalry team had been silently killed by dozens of arrows, leaving a huge gap, and the arrow part of each dead beast was a huge gap, but the gap was not dripping blood, but was covered by a layer of ice slag!

The beasts in the vicinity are wailing and fleeing because they have been injured by the burst ice slag!

The power of the magic archer is as good as that!

But this is not over yet, Lin Ke, who has been preparing for a long time, finally exerts his might.

A huge pale cyan air mass appeared above his head, and with the end of his chanting voice, the huge air mass burst with a bang, turning into countless one-foot-long rivers of wind blades, continuously rushing in the direction of the cavalry team.

Each wind blade is a scythe of death.

Everything that stands in the way of the Wind Blade will be sliced to pieces.

The wind blade is like a never-ending river, cutting a slender and long passage in the not yet thick herd!

Everywhere he went, his limbs flew and his blood flowed!

The cavalry didn't have time to be surprised, and the fast team rushed forward while the huge gap had not yet closed, and was encouraged by the powerful power of the two spellcasters, everyone fought bravely, and one by one the wailing beasts were picked up by the sharp spears and flew into the air, and a terrible scream came out of their mouths, causing the nearby beasts to stop moving in fear!

Lin Ke kept raising his hand and releasing the wind blade to suppress the group of beasts on the right side of the team, and sometimes the ferociousness erupted and pounced on the herd, Neil was full of flame-like red gaseous fighting energy, and the fighting spirit spread to the whole body of the spear, and the spear waved up and down, accurately shattering every fierce beast that occasionally rushed to the front on the left side of the team into black residue, Xue'er had the broadest vision, and constantly resolved the dangers encountered by the knights, and could always give the most help at the most critical moment!

In this way, in just a few breaths, the cavalry team fought their way out of the vanguard beast herd unscathed!

The two raids succeeded in breaking up the herd of beasts that had already crossed the river, and the beasts stopped rushing forward and even fled in the direction of the river!

Linko's eyes lit up, and he asked Neil, who was beside him, "Arrow Tower?"

Neil shot a fast and vicious wolf that flew back into the herd like a cannonball, turning it into a black carbon road, "The remaining beasts that have crossed the river bank have been scattered, and I can feel their fear, but the density of the beasts in the direction of the stone bridge is a bit high, and with our current cavalry strength, it will be difficult to break through there even if we combine our troops." ”

Lin Ke frowned for a while, but found that there was suddenly a strong figure on the horseback, and he couldn't help but get excited.

"It's too reckless!" Before Lin Ke could speak, Seventh Elder Eller scolded fiercely, "What the family needs is a future leader and a strong man, not a reckless man who died halfway!"

"Yes, Seventh Grandpa," Lin Ke hurriedly said with a perfunctory expression, "There are several guards in the direction of the Stone Bridge Arrow Tower, we must rescue them!"

"Sure?" Eller asked with a cold face.

Lin Ke's expression was also unprecedentedly serious, "Definitely!"

"Hmph," Eller still grimaced, but found that another team of escort cavalry led by Brooke had approached, and the two teams had reconciled in front of the stone house group according to Linko's original plan.

"Roar" "Roar" !!

In the cavalry teams of the two divisions, the guards and knights cheered loudly!

This led to even greater cheers from the guards and civilians on the castle walls!

"Master Cohen, are you alright?" Brooke didn't feel excited at all, he anxiously pushed the visor on, only to find that another middle-aged man was riding with Lin Ke and couldn't help but be stunned, "Lord Eller!"

Ignoring Brooke, who was saluting respectfully, Ehreri waved his hand to let one of the horsemen give up his mount and return to the castle on his own, and rode himself onto his horse and came to Linko.

"Look at the herd of beasts there, still crossing the stone bridge," Eller pointed in the direction of there and asked Linko coldly, "You still want to say that it must be?"

Linko followed Eller's fingers, and the beasts that had been cowering and retreating gradually regained their courage under the onslaught of the beasts that continued to swarm from the stone bridge, and pounced on the castle again.

"The retreat of the civilians should be almost complete, but I can imagine the fear and despair of those trapped guards," Lin Ke also looked calm but spoke extremely quickly, "They didn't choose to flee at the first time when the beast herd attacked, but stayed there, sounded the alarm and withdrew the retreat and chose to resist, they gambled with their lives on that choice that they must lose," Lin Ke clenched his right fist fiercely and smashed it into his heart, "I don't want them to lose the bet!" He began to get a little excited, a passion that he had never experienced in one person and two lifetimes was dominated by the soul and surged all over his body, "The Mutes family will not let them lose the gamble! Even if they die, let them see the heirs of the Mutes family die on the way to rescue them!"

He drove the big black horse towards Elle, and the big black horse seemed to feel the mood of his master, and became extremely obedient, Linko turned over and dismounted and knelt down on one knee and pleaded, "Seventh Elder, Cohen Mutes please borrow your power to help me save those warriors of the Mutes family!"

The family guards were moved, and they all dismounted under the leadership of whom, followed Linko, and knelt down on one knee in the direction of Eller.

The ground is full of men's knees!

There was silence for a moment.

"Well, I don't think we have much time," Eller drove to Brooke, who was also on one knee beside Linko, "if Cohen loses his life, then this battle will be your final battle for Brooke." ”

"Unless Brooke is dead, no one will want to hurt Master Cohen!" Brooke echoed solemnly, as if he had sworn an oath!

"Unless I die, no one will want to hurt Master Cohen!" one of the knights roared!

"Unless I die, no one will want to hurt Master Cohen!"

As soon as Xue'er grasped the longbow in her hand, her eyes were full of determination!

Neil was covered in flames and rolled like a god of war, looking at the figure kneeling on one knee at the front of the crowd, his expression was extremely complicated!

"Then keep up with me. ”

Eller's words were as cold as his usual grim look.
