Chapter 25: Victory

The most eye-catching duel on the battlefield continues, and the distance between the two sides is less than a hundred steps. The knights of the Knights of the Hammer are like blood-red arrows under the leadership of the Captain, and the blades of steel have the ability to pierce everything. On the other side, the huge troglodyte leader carried a huge bone club in his hand, and his speed was not inferior to that of the knight's warhorse, and their large mouths kept emitting a terrifying roar, and they were not afraid of the knight's charge.

Just when everyone thought that those knights would crash into their opponents, the knight's sword suddenly sent out a signal, and the originally compact charging formation suddenly spread, and the knights in the back row began to consciously slow down their horses, and the arrow-like array became like an unfolded folding fan.

"Multi-stage charge!" The warrior who knew the goods on the camp wall had already exclaimed, this kind of change of formation is a combat method specially prepared by the knight for a small number of enemies, by spreading the formation, reducing the possibility of accidental injury between the knights, although this is bound to reduce the impact power somewhat, but the knights in the back row can form a multi-angle attack on the enemy's weakness by observing the situation of their teammates in front.

The formation of the knights deliberately avoided the front of their opponents, and they did not seem to be in a hurry to decide the winner in the first encounter, and the warriors who rushed to the front were all aiming at the outside of the troglodyte leader, and only their knight captain, as the tip of the team, still faced the two big men head-on. The female knight chief clamped the hilt of the knight's sword under her arm, and held the bottom of the sword with her right hand wearing armor, as if she were using the knight's sword as a riding spear!

"For the Hammer!"

Five steps, starting with the knight chief, the knights let out a deafening battle cry!

Four steps, three steps, two steps......

There were no loud noises, no violent collisions, not even a drop of blood splattered, and the knights' ranks slashed quickly against their opponents' bodies and weapons, as if they hadn't shot at the enemy at all. There was an eerie silence on the battlefield for a moment, and the knights rushed past the caveman leader, and because of inertia, they ran forward for another two or three hundred paces before stopping, and the two caveman men continued to run forward.

"Unbelievable, do you see clearly?" Mona muttered subconsciously, what happened in that moment just now, with the dynamic vision of the female warrior, she only captured a scale armor. I'm afraid Jack is the only one of the five who can see what is going on.

"See what......" To Cheese, the two seemed to have just skimmed each other, and the mage did not notice that there was a collision between them, and from his point of view, it was as if the knights had timidly dodged the charge of their opponents. So he didn't understand why the female warrior sighed, but before he could say the last word, the changes that happened at the scene made him forget what he was talking about.

"Quack!" screamed from the mouths of the two caveman leaders, who seemed unharmed, and bloody arrows burst out of their stone-blessed skin at the same time, like a grand and bloody fountain show. Dense scars appeared on the arms, legs, and limbs on their outer sides, and these wounds accurately cut through the musculature that supported their bodies, causing the two big men to fall to their knees unwillingly, their huge one-man eyes full of dazed and angry, and the two troglodyte leaders didn't know what was going on until they fell to the ground.

Cheese had heard that a clever chef could dismember an entire cow with just a sharp knife, and that was because the chef knew the anatomy of the cow's body, and the blade was able to avoid the strong bones and destroy only the fragile muscles and joints. And what these knights did at this time was similar to that cook! The mage realized at this moment that in the brief moment of the confrontation, these knights avoided the attack from the enemy, and at the same time used the knight's sword in their hand to cut the enemy's muscles, although this could not directly kill the opponent, but it was enough to incapacitate the knights and let the knights slaughter.

No matter how much we try to deny it, the battlefields of this era still belong to those mortals on horseback. Cheese's mind suddenly remembered this sentence, and it was his teacher, one of the most powerful mages in the world. The caster's methods may be strange and difficult to guard against, but such a knightly army is the only way to gain the initiative on the frontal battlefield.

With the fall of the leader, a large number of cavemen suddenly lost the courage to continue fighting, and they scrambled to flee the cave, and for a moment, not a single living caveman was seen in the cave where the camp was located, and it was only at this time that the people on the battlefield were convinced that the human side had won the final victory in this battle.

It was also the first time for Cheese to participate in such a high-intensity battle, and the mage only felt that he could not exert any strength in his body at this time, and could only rely on the camp wall to barely ensure that he would not fall. Not only him, but almost all the warriors in the entire camp were like this, this battle was too difficult, the number of opponents was desperate, if it weren't for the knights of the Knights of the Hammer who killed the leader of the cavemen in one fell swoop, I'm afraid no one would have survived today. But even so, the residents of Sweetwater paid a huge price, with the dead and wounded piling up in almost every house, and the medicine prepared was simply not enough to supply the huge number of wounded. The cries of the families, the groans of the wounded, and the smell of blood in the air, in such an atmosphere, the knights of the Order entered the camp.

The knights were greeted at the camp gate by Mayor Bender, who had climbed the camp wall like the other men in Sweetwater in the previous battle, and his bravery was one of the reasons why the morale of the guards had not collapsed for so long. Luckily, Mr. Mayor Mare was only slightly injured in the battle, so he became one of the few people in the camp who could still stand up. As for the Cheese Five, although their proud achievements were covered up a lot by the later Knights, they were unanimously recognized by the residents of Sweetwater, and they were immediately transferred to the rear for treatment and recuperation after the war.

It was already half a day later when Cheese woke up again, and shortly after he was transferred to the camp, he passed out due to exhaustion, but fortunately, due to the intentional protection of others, the mage was not injured heavily. Cheese struggled to sit up from the bed, and due to the tension of the room, there were several simple beds in the small room he was in, and Elsa and the others were sleeping in a few beds nearby. Although they shared a lot of pressure before, thanks to the training of the Frost Guard, most of the other four were only slightly injured, only Hahn was unlucky enough to have a serious injury to his back, but the wound had been stitched up. After confirming his partner's injury, the mage's heart finally sank.

Cheese tried to move his body, and after making sure that there was nothing serious, he got up and walked out of the room, he saw a hurried scene in the town, people were still struggling to save the wounded, stretchers for the lightly injured were placed in the open space, and the occasional sound of the deceased's family crying in the distance. Although the battle was over, an atmosphere of sadness and oppression still hung over the camp.

"You're awake!" a voice came from behind the mage, and Cheese turned his head to see a young woman. The other man was holding gauze and bandages in his hands, and it looked like he was the one in charge of caring for the wounded in the neighborhood.

"Mr. Mayor said that if you wake up, please go to him...... The knight wants to see you. ”

Cheese nodded, Mayor Bender didn't have to keep it a secret for his group, and besides, with the current situation, it would be great if he could get the help of these knights. After instructing the other party to help take care of his teammates, and by the way, he asked where the mayor was, and the mage walked to the big house where the mayor had hosted a banquet without hesitation.
