Chapter Twenty-Three: The Demonized Cavalry
The two of them looked into the distance in silence, their expressions a little heavy.
"Another village ahead...... There seems to be no sign of life either. โ
In the past five days, they followed the rut trails all the way, and on the way they encountered seven villages, all of which were empty and lifeless "ghost villages", and for ten days, they had not seen a single living person.
"There are no bodies, not even blood is seen, what is going on here to make so many people disappear into thin air. Claire frowned.
Da Da ......
Claire's expression was slightly stunned, "Is it the sound of horses' hooves?"
Dia listened carefully, shrugged her shoulders and said, "I can't hear you." โ
"It's the sound of horses' hooves! Claire was sure.
"Over there. โ
The two stared expectantly into the steppe hills in the distance, and after a while, a team of human cavalry appeared, dressed in blood-red knight's heraldic armor, looking around as they marched, as if searching for something.
The knights saw the two of them, and they paused for a moment, as if they were exchanging something, and then ran towards them.
"Be vigilant. Claire reminded.
As the two sides got closer and closer, Claire narrowed her eyes and clutched her longbow in her hand, asking what was the most dangerous thing in the wild, not bad weather or dangerous magical creatures, but strangers who had never known each other the most dangerous!
Because you don't know if he will suddenly burst out and hurt people, seek money and kill people, or if he wants to see the color, if there are two adventurer teams in the field who meet, unless they are old acquaintances with a better relationship, most of them will choose to stay away from each other, and no one will pay attention to anyone, this is not cold-blooded, but for safety!
If you run recklessly without saying hello in advance, what awaits you is not hospitality and sumptuous food, but cold bows and arrows and steel knives!
Claire had already put her hand on the quiver, rubbing the bow and arrows inside, and if the cavalry squad dared to continue without knowing the rules, he wouldn't mind letting them have a good memory.
Perhaps sensing that these two were not easy to bully, the cavalry squad slowly slowed down and stopped a hundred yards directly in front of the two, a distance close to Claire's bottom line, and if they dared to move forward a little more, he would definitely not hesitate to let them taste the rain of arrows.
One of the cavalry squads rode out on horseback, and he looked at the two of them condescendingly, a poor ghost hunter and a little ghost who couldn't even afford clothes, there was nothing to pay attention to, and it was a shame that they were so cautious just now.
He took a sip, spread out the scroll in his hand, and asked contemptuously, "Hey, have you ever seen these two people." โ
Claire frowned, a little unhappy with their attitude.
The portrait depicts a man and a woman, the man is tall and straight, with blond hair and blue eyes, a handsome face, and a blue iris badge hanging from the left chest of the silver armor, and the woman is wearing a blue gothic dress, the figure is petite, and she looks slightly larger than Dia, and her waist-length brown hair is very striking.
Claire said expressionlessly, "I haven't seen it, if it's okay, we'll go first." โ
The man waved his hand, ", untouchables." โ
Claire frowned, what happened to her face after putting up with it?
"Why, you want to fight?" the man on horseback sneered, "Get out of here, or elseโuh......" The man's words came to an abrupt halt, his face flushed, and a verdant vine crept out of the ground, wrapped around his neck, and dragged him to the ground with a thud.
"Is this a knight? It's not like what was described in the Middle Ages. โ
The knight squad all looked at Dia, and their expressions were shocked, this young child turned out to be a spellcaster!
"I haven't read what you call the 'Middle Ages' book, but I can tell you for sure that they weren't knights, just soldiers on horseback. โ
"So they're just ordinary cavalry, right?"
"That's right. โ
Claire hesitated and said: "Although I don't know what your impression of a knight looks like, the knights I have encountered, except for the paladins of the Templar Church, most of the knights are not good things, they have done a lot of things like bullying and exploiting civilians, and they can do anything for the sake of the title." โ
As the two of them spoke, the cavalry squad suddenly changed, their eyes became dull, glowing with a strange green light, their faces became more and more evil and bloodthirsty, and then they actually clamped their legs between the horse's belly and rode their horses to charge at the two.
"Be careful, they look like demonization!"
Spell Might: Wall of Smoke.
The cavalry squad broke into the wall of smoke and quickly rushed straight out, and it seemed that it had been exempted from the negative state of the wall of smoke! Dia's eyes widened, feeling a little incredible, even this kind of goods can reach the extraordinary physique? When did the transcendent become so worthless, this is absolutely impossible!
Charged Arrow: Burst.
A blazing red bow and arrow followed, and boom, and the fire wave of the explosion rose into the sky, and the horses under the crotch of the cavalry were disturbed, ran uncontrollably, and even threw off their horses.
The cavalry in heavy heraldic armor fell off their horses and had to move on foot, which was no more difficult for Claire than to shoot a fixed target, a distance of less than fifty yards, which was their eternal moat.
Claire bent his bow and arrows, and in less than three seconds he pulled the string six times, and by this time, the cavalrymen who had fallen to the ground had just gotten up, and the speed of the bows and arrows was so fast that they had no time to raise their cavalry shields for defense.
An arrow shattered their heraldic armor, and an arrow pierced through the heart, and the demonized cavalry who was shot through the heart did not fall immediately, but struggled to run for more than thirty steps before falling to the ground.
Now that she has done it, Claire has no intention of letting go of the rest of the people, and besides, they don't look like humans anymore.
Rain of arrows!
The wailing of the horses and the shattering of the armor came and went, and after a round of washing the floor, there was no living creature on the field that could still stand, except for the two of them.
After touching the fish, Dia ran forward and continued to touch the corpse.
"Hey, there's one more here that's not dead. โ
Seeing the way the dead cavalryman was shot through the knee with a bow and arrow, lying on the ground like a beast and roaring, Dia suddenly understood why the Wall of Smoke didn't work, because they didn't have to breathe from the moment they were demonized.
"That's the 'tongue' I left behind. Claire kicked him and asked, "What's going on in this prairie?"
Roar!
Claire frowned, the dagger flipped nimbly on her fingertips, and in a flash of cold light, a bloodline appeared on the demonic knight's wrist.
"Now I ask you again, what happened to this grassland, and ...... Do you know this place in Golden Sand City?"
The cavalry roared louder, twisting his body to grab the scimitar beside him.
Poof, a bow and arrow pierced through his eyebrows, pinning him to the ground.
"Let's go, it looks like he's lost his ability to communicate and can't ask anything. โ
---------
Reflect on it, read what I wrote before, very dissatisfied, because of the reason for learning to drive, there is not enough time, and I am afraid of breaking the change (in fact, it is still broken), I don't have time to write it seriously, and I have suffered a loss without a detailed outline, and many places have forgotten to set up foreshadowing and dark lines, which leads to the plot turning a little abrupt and blunt...... And a little water.
The rhythm is not grasped well, obviously a dozen chapters should be over, but twenty-one chapters are written, if it weren't for some plots, I'm afraid it would be thirty chapters before I got out of the forest.
Fortunately, the end of the subject 2 exam, it's not too late, and the second volume will calm down and code the words well, and the quality will improve a lot.
After the Spring Festival, it will be stable at least two shifts per day, and strive to maintain two shifts per day before the Spring Festival.
