Chapter 354: Battle of Mirror Lake (7)

Ryan rode on top of his warhorse. Silently staring at the Mirror Lake camp of the Clay tribe that was on fire everywhere, watching Roger and them drive away the Clay herdsmen, and watching the fire elemental giants he had summoned keep burning everything here, it suddenly reminded Ryan of the night when the Thor Fortress fell 4 years ago.

The same beacon fire, the same call sign to flee for life, and what caused everything in the first place was nothing more than the conspiracy of a few careerists. After so many years, the imperial capital has long investigated the situation of the year, and the Hans adjutant is most likely an inside line planted by Senate, and the entire Clay clan suddenly moved west before the incident, which is obviously also involved in this conspiracy.

Ryan didn't understand why there were always some unrealistic fantasies that were crowned with all sorts of high-sounding slogans, such as reviving ancestral honor and recreating brilliant deeds, but not to satisfy the ambitions of some careerists.

If it hadn't been for Senat's rebellion and the participation of the Clay tribe, how could the Thor Fortress have fallen? How could the imperial capital have fallen into the quagmire of war? How could nearly 10 million people of the imperial capital have lost their innocent lives? How could today's massacre have happened? Therefore, all the misery that the Clay people are facing today is their own infliction.

One might say that these ordinary Clay herders are innocent, but in Lane's view, this is not the case. You must know that maybe these ordinary Clay herdsmen did not directly join the battle, but they still participated in the war, their father and brother were the soldiers of Chief Abdul, and the cattle and sheep they grazed every day also provided logistical support for the Clay tribe to invade the imperial capital many times, when the Clay soldiers pointed to the imperial capital and plundered the farms on the outskirts of the imperial capital, the loot that was stolen was not finally distributed to these ordinary Clay herdsmen.

Now that you have entered this never-ending battle, don't imagine that your opponent will foolishly ignore the above facts, so as to give the enemy who is temporarily at a disadvantage a chance to breathe, which is why Ryan, who is not a thirst for killing, can give the order to kill. After experiencing Cassano's own internal rebellion, Ryan has a deep understanding of the sinister nature of the human heart, and in Cassano's lax rule, there will still be people who take risks because of interests, not to mention the Clay herdsmen who have now become feuding?

"Maybe they can live under the rule of the imperial capital in the future, although life will be difficult, but it is better than losing their lives. Ryan silently said to himself in his heart: "Everyone has to pay for their actions, this is the punishment that the Clay clan deserves, Ryan, you still don't care too much!"

The self-consolation in Lane's heart made his own heart feel much better, and perhaps many things were all one thing needed for a reason, just as Chief Abdul shouted the slogan of restoring the old glory. "But if I comfort myself like this, does that mean I've become like Chief Abdul too?" Ryan thought boredly.

The sound of horses' hooves from far and near made Ryan leave the inexplicable thoughts in his mind behind, Ryan looked up, only to see a large group of cavalry running from the east of the Clay camp, judging from the outfit of these cavalry, it was obviously not the Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force.

"Lord Lord, it's no good, a large number of Clay cavalry are coming!" Letoz rode towards Ryan, and before he could run in front of Ryan, he had already shouted anxiously: "There are at least 50,000, and they are basically the most elite troops......!"

Ryan didn't wait for Letoz to finish speaking, he had already guessed what he wanted to say, obviously the former king of the jungle was ready to persuade himself to withdraw, after all, there were only 4,500 Windrun Marksman, and the opponent was more than 50,000 elite troops of the Clay Clan, and such a battle did not need to start to know the final outcome.

The sudden appearance of the elite cavalry of the Clay tribe also caused concern among the other popular marksmen, who knew that at this time, these main forces of the Clay tribe should still be fighting with their comrades in the Jonas Legion, but they suddenly appeared here, could it be said that the expeditionary force had been defeated?

Ryan looked at the panicked expressions on the faces of his subordinates, shook his head with a smile, rejected Letoz's suggestion, he leaned over and gently leaned his chest on the horse's back, and then stretched out his right hand and slowly stroked the neck of the war horse under his crotch.

Seeing that Ryan would not give the order to withdraw anyway, Lettoz sighed, pulled out the Mithril longbow from behind him, and held it hard. Although Letoz didn't know why Ryan was so stubborn, he still didn't hesitate to stay by Ryan's side, after all, it was Ryan who took in his people when they were desperate, and now those members of the hunter tribe can live and work in peace and contentment in the plains of Cassano, all thanks to the favor of this young lord.

"In that case, let's give him back this life. Helen, I'm sorry!" Letoz was determined, and his face returned to calm, he took out the necklace that his fiancée Helen had given him, kissed it gently, and then solemnly put it away close to him. After doing all this, Lettoz quickly pulled out a feather arrow from the quiver behind his back, placed it on top of the Mithril longbow, and then shouted, "Bloody battle!"

Seeing that his captain still maintained high morale, the Celestial Archer under Letoz also followed his example and drew their feather arrows, preparing to fight to the death with the galloping elite troops of the Clay Clan, their Elite Archer Legion was originally formed by imitating the Clay Light Cavalry, and today it can be proved to the world that the most elite light cavalry on this continent is not the White Frost Legion of the Clay Clan, but the Celestial Archer Legion from Cassano.

Ryan didn't look at his popular archer subordinates at all, but slowly came to the shore of Mirror Lake, he lightly jumped off his horse, casually looked back at the cavalry less than 2 kilometers away from the Mirror Lake camp of the Clay clan, and then turned around and spread his arms, facing the calm waters of Mirror Lake.

Ryan's previous small forbidden spell "Polar Ice" has long been invalid, and the water of Mirror Lake has slowly returned to its original appearance, but the Clay herdsmen who were frozen by that magic never woke up, their stiff bodies sank straight to the bottom of the lake, due to the clarity of the water of Mirror Lake, Ryan can still see the frozen corpses standing or lying under the water several meters deep.

The obscure magic spell once again came out of Ryan's mouth, and many of the popular shooters thought that their lord was planning to freeze the lake again, but Captain Roger, who had been with Ryan for a long time, clearly recognized that the magic spell that Ryan was releasing now was completely different from the previous one, and it was obviously another magic.

"Stalp, trample!" After seeing the Mirror Lake camp turn into a sea of fire, the elite cavalry of the Klee tribe who protected the retreat of Chief Abdul were all inexplicably sad and indignant, and at this moment, they no longer had the luxury of expecting their families to be safe and sound, and the only thought in the hearts of these warriors was to rush into the camp to avenge the death of their loved ones.

Looking at the elite light cavalry of the Clay clan who was getting closer and closer, and then at the lord who was still slowly casting spells and chanting spells by the lake, Letoz sighed helplessly, and loudly ordered his men to gather and prepare to shoot. The 4,500 popular archers were only able to concentrate on Letoz and Roger now due to the previous scattered attacks, and it was obviously impossible to kill the 50,000 Clay cavalry who attacked with just a bow and arrow, and even Letoz himself had the idea of killing as much as he could, so as to reduce the pressure of the next hand-to-hand combat.

At the moment when the retreating elite light cavalry of the Klee clan stepped into the Mirror Lake camp, Letoz gave the order to shoot without hesitation, and more than 3,000 feathered arrows broke away from the bowstring in an instant and flew out in the direction the enemy was rushing from. These feathered arrows fly desperately high in the sky, and if nothing else, they reach their highest point in a few seconds, and then penetrate the armor and body of the enemy with their descending speed......

At this moment, the water surface of the calm Mirror Lake suddenly swelled, and the rapidly rising water of the lake also brought a shocking whistling sound, which even directly suppressed the sound of bows and arrows flying in the sky and the sound of galloping war horses.

As he was about to give the order for a second shot, Letoz only felt his body stiffen suddenly, as a huge black shadow was projected from behind him, a sensation that usually only appeared when he was being targeted by some powerful demonic beast. Letoz couldn't care about the Clay cavalry in the distance, he quickly turned his head to look, but saw a huge creature composed entirely of lake water flying over his head, wherever this huge "creature" went, it immediately blocked out the strong sunlight in the sky, and Letoz and the more than 3,000 popular shooters around him were naturally shrouded in that large shadow.

"This ...... What is this?" Letoz cried out.

"Hydra, this is Hydra!" Roger cried out even more incoherently.

As soon as he heard Roger's shout, Lettoz immediately looked in the direction where Ryan was, but saw a scene that he will never forget: the originally calm Mirror Lake suddenly revealed at least a radius of at least several kilometers of the bottom of the lake, and the lake above the soil was gone, but the lake next to it still stood in place, as if Leitoz himself was at a loss.

A large area of the lake was dried up under the pumped water, as if a large piece of bread had been cut and removed, revealing a gap, and the fish and shrimp at the bottom of the lake were bouncing around on the wet soil of the lake bottom, not knowing what was going on, and the few frozen Clay herders who had sunk to the bottom of the lake before were also lying intact at the bottom of the lake.
