Chapter 735: The Dark Knight
In the pouring rain, an army marched at an astonishing speed towards the Church's bridgehead on the eastern side of the Chaotic Lands, Ghost City. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
On the way, many people noticed the presence of this army, and there were even several groups of soldiers who were carrying out the purification of the characters in various villages.
They encountered this army, and at first they thought it was a friendly army and planned to come up to say hello, but soon they realized that something was wrong.
The paladins under the command of the Church of Light are all wearing silver armor, and the shining silver light symbolizes the supreme light.
But this army was wearing black armor, the cold metallic texture was suffocating, and it looked particularly cold under the raindrops.
Without waiting for these guards to inquire about the situation, they were instantly overwhelmed by this torrent of steel, and the guards of more than a hundred people were completely vulnerable in front of them.
Panicking, they finally realized that something terrible had happened, and tried to send information from here to Ghost City to keep them on guard.
But the soldiers of these guards had no chance of escaping, and they were too slow to be spared, even if someone was lucky enough to escape.
But they were not as fast as each other's horses at all, and they approached Ghost City with a sweeping posture, and the villagers looked at the back of the departing in surprise.
Even in the heavy rain, all that was left was a chaotic row of horseshoe prints, leaving only the corpses of soldiers in silver armor.
"What's going on, where did they come from, they even dared to kill the soldiers of the Legion of Light, no one has dared to do this for more than thirty years, and their appearance and number are at least 10,000 people, and all of them are cavalry, it feels like a dream. ”
"Even if it's the Legion of Light, we can't get 10,000 cavalry out, we don't have a lot of natural pastures here, I really can't figure out where the army came from, and they come and go without a trace, are they ghosts from hell? ”
"Hey, have you heard the recent rumors that the Dark Holy Court, which has been obliterated for more than thirty years, will rise again, and this is the original sphere of influence of the Dark Holy Court, and their target is going towards Ghost City, could it be that the Dark Knights of the Dark Holy Court have appeared?"
The villagers were suspicious and speculated about the origin of this army, and some of them were still very young, only thirty or forty years old, and had not experienced that era.
And some were fifty or sixty miles away, and had witnessed the prosperity of the Dark Holy Court, and this part of the villagers had tears in their eyes and kept wiping their tears.
"There must be no mistake, it is definitely the guardian who guards us, the dark god really did not abandon us, we finally waited for hope!"
"Wipe out all the bastards in the church, although I'm in my thirties, and I've heard everything about the Holy See in stories, but after so much time, there are still people who think of them as good, they must be a bunch of good guys, at least eight hundred times better than the bastards of the church. ”
"I've had enough of these days, by the way, we must spread the news of the arrival of the Dark Knight, let everyone know that we are not abandoned, everyone should stand up and respond, that is a great faith that we have never succumbed!"
The villagers took it upon themselves to characterize that army as the Dark Knights of the Dark Court, and they cheered, their eyes shining with light.
They can't wait to run to tell each other, the days of being heavily exploited are over, and the fire buried deep in their hearts is finally about to be released.
The horses' hooves trampled over large patches of mud from the muddy roads of the country roads, splashing on the weeds on the side of the road, which had been blown by the rain and wind.
The army was moving at full speed towards the Ghost City, and from this angle it was already possible to see the outline of the city from afar, and the smoke and water were blurred.
"My lord, we will soon arrive in Ghost City, but we don't have any siege equipment, are we going to attack directly?"
Kruf rode forward and asked loudly how Lin Ye would attack the city when he arrived at Ghost City, after all, all the cavalry they led were cavalry.
Although the cavalry is invincible in the field, once it is delayed, in a complex terrain environment, or even directly facing the tall city wall, it will become an infantry on horseback, and there is no way to give full play to any advantages, when attacking the royal capital.
The rebel army, which had no siege equipment, suffered heavy casualties, and they were a bloody lesson, and at that time the Far East used new siege equipment.
Successfully took the royal capital, and at that time, the Far East used sea transportation to transport the equipment to the royal capital, but it took a lot of effort.
For this reason, they have specially waited for a full month, and now in the Ghost City of the Chaos Realm, they can't come over with siege weapons.
As for building in situ or something, it didn't have that condition, and Crouff was surprised by this, and attacking was not a good option.
"That's right, it's a direct assault, although we don't have siege weapons, but Ghost City is not as strong as you think, in fact, after the war more than thirty years ago, Ghost City has fallen into disrepair, and the city defense is simply non-existent, and the defenders in the city are about 4,000 people. ”
"These defenders can't even compare to the ordinary soldiers of the Empire in terms of number, training or equipment, after all, their mission is only to guard against ordinary people, not against foreign invaders, and they will not pose much threat to us, so let's attack with all our might. ”
Lin Ye had already grasped the relevant information in advance, and the outline of the city appeared in front of him, and his eyes were sharp and imposing like a rainbow when he looked ahead.
"Well, it always feels like our march is too easy, and the dignified western continent, this mysterious land, is so vulnerable? But if it can be like this, it would be very good, and I thought that we would go through a fierce battle, which made me worry for a long time. ”
Kluf was very surprised by the information given by Lin Ye, and the march was still very smooth, and he didn't encounter a decent battle at all.
"Because this area has historically belonged to the gathering area of believers in the Dark Holy Court, and the enemy we will encounter when we set foot on this land is not soldiers, but the power of faith that has been condensed for hundreds of years, and the next few battles should be easily resolved. ”
"But once you enter the area where the believers of the Church of Light are concentrated, the pressure will suddenly increase, and you will face a heavy test, so while there is not much challenge yet, take a breath or two, the real challenge has not yet begun, march at full speed, and take the ghost city in one go. ”
Lin Ye pointed to the city in the heavy rain in front of him, which was the bridgehead of the Chaos region ruled by the Church of Light.
The horse's hooves crossed the stumps scattered on the ground, and its momentum was like thunder!
