Chapter Seventy-Seven

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Facing the golden morning sun, the suspension bridge in front of the fortress slowly descended, and the endless barren plain gradually appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Yi Qi and Clay, the captain of the other team, were at the forefront on horseback, with several followers following left and right, and in mid-air, two Sky Knights hovered with magical beasts.

The carriage filled with 30 slaves, located in the center of the procession, was made of metal, stitched together, had no windows, and the doors were designed to be slid upwards, leaving only a small space for ventilation.

Rather than a carriage, it was more like a movable prison that followed the procession.

Da, da, da.

The sound of horses' hooves retracted over the empty and wide field, the wind howled, and everyone was silent and clutched the reins in their hands, with solemn expressions.

All the way to gallop.

After a long time, the group finally arrived at their destination.

This is an open-pit mine, where all kinds of mining equipment are abandoned at will, huge bowl-shaped earth pits, and even bare ore can be seen directly in the black and red rock formations.

Eli slowed down his horses and said in a deep voice, "Let the slaves get off the cart and collect the Mithril ore!"

"Disperse the ranks and stay alert!"

Clay also commanded his own team.

The ragged slaves, each with a basket in their hand, obediently left the carriage, and under the drive of the knights, they jumped into the pit, dug out the silver-gray Mithril nuggets from the dirt with small hoes, and threw them into the frames.

Lu Feng tightened the reins of the horses, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the ore blocks in the frames, even if these Mithril ores that had not yet been smelted were extremely valuable, but it was a pity that he had no chance to mine them in front of everyone.

Before leaving, the commander had explicitly forbidden this, and all the Mithril collected by the slaves had to be handed over, and sending two teams also meant to supervise each other.

More than two hours later, the sun, which had been hanging over the horizon, rose to the center of the sky.

The unkempt slaves carried out the excavation work in silence, and the two teams of men and horses were always on the alert to the surrounding situation, not daring to relax in the slightest.

Suddenly.

Two Sky Knights, flying on the beast, swooped down.

"There are four teams of men coming to the mine from the southwest!"

Lu Feng's heart tightened, and he subconsciously grabbed the reins of the horse, turned his head to look at Yi Qian, who was still calm and calm, raised his head and looked at the two sky knights and asked, "How many people are there on the other side?"

"About seventy or so, be careful. ”

After saying that, this Sky Knight, who was riding a bat-like demonic beast, flew in other directions.

The hearts of all the people are sinking, and the team of about 70 people may be difficult to handle.

"After only collecting for a while, the miscellaneous people of Great Xia came to disturb the good things. ”

Clay cursed in a low voice and yelled at the team members, "Organize the slaves to return to the carriage immediately and prepare to evacuate the mine!"

"Yes!"

The knights responded to the order, tightened the cordon, and quickly organized the slaves back to the carriage.

Yi Qian glanced at the frame in the slaves' hands and said, "There is not much Mithril collected this time. ”

Clay frowned, and said with a displeased expression: "I will try my best to protect these slaves from returning to the fortress smoothly, and those who dare to escape will be killed, so as not to let the Great Xia miscellaneous people pick up the cheap." ”

In a few moments, all the slaves were back in the carriage.

The distance between the Sky Knight and the enemy was also shortening, and Lu Feng faintly heard the sound of rapid horses' hooves and the neighing of flying monsters, obviously the enemy Sky Knight had discovered this place.

"The Sky Knight is at the end of the line, and the rest of the men are scattered around the carriage, keeping their distance, and moving at full speed!

Yi Qi shouted an order, and everyone did not hesitate to shake the reins, clamp the horse's belly, and drive the horses to gallop in the direction of the ancient abyss fortress.

Lu Feng pursed his lips, and the palm holding the reins was already sweating nervously.

With the experience of confronting the fire demon several times in the world of the media master before, Lu Feng was not too flustered, and his heart was hanging high while thinking quickly.

Defense props, reincarnated golems, high-level energy guns, energy grenades, and other things that you can use for the time being, these are just a few.

Even if he rode wildly, the speed of the flying demonic beast was still faster, and after a while, the Sky Knight belonging to the Great Xia Dynasty caught up from behind, and the Sky Knight of the Weifeng Kingdom obviously did not dare to confront it head-on.

"All the men disperse! The carriage is always on guard to avoid air attacks!"

Lu Feng investigates these flying monsters, all of them are a string of question marks, ordinary knights face the sky knights, unless they form a force to crush, otherwise these knights who can only fight hand-to-hand have only one way to escape.

In an instant, the Sky Knights of Great Xia chased after them with flying demonic beasts, and several shadows gradually descended from the sky, approaching the people who were advancing at full speed, setting off a cool breeze.

The demonic beast stretched out its claws, directly grabbed a knight and a horse with a man, and rose into the air.

In the neighing of the war horse, the knight, who was unfortunately caught by the flying demonic beast, struggled with all his might, but to no avail, and was thrown from a high altitude.

"Ahh

There was a scream of terror and another loud "bang", and the knight fell from the sky to the ground, falling into a blur of flesh and blood.

In the bare plain without any concealment, a group of knights galloping on horseback became the target of Ming Huang, and the knights who were good at frontal combat were almost certain to die once they were caught by flying monsters.

In the blink of an eye, two knights were grabbed by the flying demonic beast, thrown from the sky, and smashed into a mess of flesh.

In contrast, several followers such as Lu Feng and Hull have flexible and changeable attack methods, and have become the main force to defend against the Sky Knights.

Hull had darts in the gaps between his fingers, bowed his waist and lowered his center of gravity, and when the flying monster lowered its altitude, he aimed at the target and threw it, although the monsters were rough and thick and could not cause well-known damage, but they successfully interfered with the monsters, and the knight was able to escape.

The other two squires either fired crossbows or wielded slings.

Lu Feng clamped the horse's belly, pulled the reins tightly, lowered his body, dodged the demonic beasts in the air, and used the energy gun to prepare a demonic beast that was gradually approaching him in the bumpy.

Cold sweat slid down his forehead, and Lu Feng's heart rose to his throat, staring closely at the demonic beasts that were constantly approaching him.

Shout!

"Roar!"

A red blood flower came out of the abdomen where the flying monster was hit, and it howled in pain, and the injury was not light.

Lu Feng pulled the trigger again and again, and the energy beams shot towards the flying demonic beast one after another, the blood burst open, and the demonic beast howled and launched a madness, faintly uncontrollable, no longer chasing everyone.

It seemed to sense the threat of the energy gun in Lu's hand, and for a while, the flying demonic beasts were no longer close to Lu Feng.

At this time, the four Great Xia Legion squads that were far behind the Sky Knight had already caught up!

At the front of the Great Xia team, there was a man with a white chicken nest, and only a few hundred meters behind him followed the four knight teams, as if he was afraid of something and did not dare to step forward.

This man only looked at his appearance, but he was an old man in his twilight years, dressed in rags that seemed to have been picked up from a garbage dump, with a rickety back, dark skin, a white chin and beard, like a beggar, and his vulture-like sharp eyes, which concealed the ferocity and cruelty of a predator.

His hands were so thin that he was only skinny and boneless, but he held a big knife like a hacksaw, and let the war horse gallop forward, not dodging or dodging, and taking the lead.

"Bloodthirsty Iron Hand! Hero of the Great Xia Kingdom with a bounty of 18,000 gold coins, run!"

Yi Qi shouted loudly.

All the knights were pale, the distance between the two sides was getting closer, and all the warriors stimulated their fighting spirit, and for a while, the high and violent momentum soared into the sky.

The bloodthirsty iron hand, undoubtedly the strongest in battle, full of bloody aura, the white-haired old man in his twilight years, transformed into a ferocious beast that gnawed on human flesh in an instant, and the knight who approached him was as if he had been slashed by an invisible blade, and the corpse of the war horse under his crotch was separated, and blood was splattered everywhere.

"Hmph, a group of Wei Fengguo cowards, even the fighting spirit is not painful!"

The bloodthirsty iron hand laughed wildly, his pale beard was stained red with splattered blood, and his furious battle intent was like harvesting wheat with a scythe, easily slaying the knights, and even the two knights in the Great Xia team were unfortunately affected.

Gritting their teeth, Yi Qian and Clay, who were the captains, shouted at the same time and gave the order: "Prepare for battle!

Compared with the battle intent of real heroes, Yi Qian and Clay are really vulnerable.

In an instant, a group of men and horses changed positions, more than a dozen knights continued to gallop forward around the carriage, and the rest of the knights turned their horses' heads one after another and drew their weapons hanging from their waists.
