Chapter 322, Hunt Knight!

In November 1362 in the valley calendar, in the dark forest, the army of the Sunset Leader was slowly advancing, and the forests on both sides were covered with shadows, and from time to time there were creepy sounds.

This will be Aaron's final offensive against Hurek Forest this year.

After that, winter was upon him, and Aaron was not confident that his newly formed legions and improvised adventurers could brave the cold, rain, snow, and conditions of the Black Forest, so he had to deal with the extreme druids' "sacred groves" and the monasteries of the emblems before the first snow arrived in 1362.

However, even if Aaron can successfully break through the defenses of the Druid's Sacred Grove and the Huimin Abbey, this will only be the beginning, and Aaron may need a considerable amount of time and considerable energy to fight a long law and order battle against the forest in the future, until all races are completely subjugated.

This is the country where wild monsters are rampant, and the Hurek Forest, as an area that has theoretically been included in the territory of Cormier, has experienced the conquest of Ahsan IV, and Aaron still has to pay a lot of energy to conquer and eat this territory again.

It has to be done in one go!

Aaron, who sat on the Tzeentch Sky Survey, was calm, and there were strange noises in the Black Forest, while Eleanor and Nestia sat next to him, with different expressions.

Eleanor was a little nervous, Miss Priest may have been involved in war before, but it was the first time to go on a campaign in the name of the commander, she was wearing the magical equipment that Aaron had given her - the Elven Commander Cloak, this cloak symbolizing leadership was accidentally obtained by Aaron when he went on an expedition to Lost Dronor, and was given to Aaron by the elven lich Bersa - the Unreasonable, along with Bielsa's research on the Supreme Ladder, as mentioned earlier, Aaron planned to build his own Supreme Ladder and named it the Star Dome Railway.

However, the dwarven craftsman Kimgun said that there was nothing he could do, and he was even a little angry.

You take the blueprints of pointy ears and let us dwarves do it?

Find your own pointed ears!

Kimgon's subtext, Aaron, immediately understood - they couldn't read it and couldn't do it.

Of course, Aaron asked Barrell Moonflower for help, but the fat day elf did not refuse, nor did he immediately agree, saying that he would write a letter to the Queen of Moonflower for consultation after dealing with these matters at hand.

Eleanor, dressed in a beautiful purple priest's robe, with an Elven Domination Cloak and a Mithril armor skirt underneath, looked around a little nervously, and Miss Priest said to Aaron, "Aaron, I feel a little wrong, there seems to be something in the forest. ”

"Giggles~ in the forest?" The bloodthirsty dark elf sister Nessia is dressed in a light leather power suit, dressed hot and bold, the silver zipper behind a pair of knee-high leather boots shines like a crown jewel, her chest is tightly wrapped with strips of cloth to facilitate movement, and her standard long silver wavy hair is tied up in a ponytail to deal with the war at any time, after hearing Eleanor's somewhat unconfident words, the dark elf sister licked the tip of her beloved weapon with her tongue indifferently: "What is best in the forest, no matter what comes, It's all about killing them all, and I'm annoyed that this war didn't have a bloody battle! ”

Eleanor rolled her eyes when she heard this, Miss Priest didn't want to look at Sister Darkelf.

Nestia saw Eleanor retreating, and was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, after thinking about it, she still closed her mouth, she knew the weight of Eleanor in Aaron's heart, when they first met, this half-elf priest was already a rookie, and the rookie also liked her, probably the most.

Aaron frowned, he also faintly felt the strange aura in the forest, and was about to call Bariel to ask, but before he could ask the soldiers to find someone, he saw Bariel running over panting: "Your Excellency, be careful." ”

"You feel it too?" Aaron looked at the forest in the distance, his chaotic magic already touching something less tranquil.

"It's a wild hunt, Your Excellency." The Sun Elf Arcane High Priestess wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and Barrell also put away his usual greasy and honest smile at this time, and his face became very serious: "Your Excellency, we may have to face a very powerful enemy. ”

"It's a misfortune that wild hunting likes to haunt the ancient forests of late autumn, and we just came in time." Barrell grabbed the window of the Sky Survey Chariot with his hand, "But there's nothing strange about it, the fairy princess's flower knight, the wild hunt doesn't come to you." ”

"Wild hunting? What is Wild Hunt? Aaron asked, puzzled.

All he remembered was that the Wild Hunt seemed to be a part of Norse mythology, and that some of the games he had played in his previous life featured Marauders known as the Wild Hunt.

"Haven't you seen Oberon, the king of the fairies, and the Titanian queen of the Court of Joy?" Bariel said casually: "Then you should also know that in the fairy wilderness, in addition to the Joy Royal Court, there is also a Mourning Royal Court, and there is also a god-like power named the Queen of Empty Darkness, which is in opposition to the Joy Royal Court, right?" ”

Aaron nodded.

"That's it, Your Excellency, there are many races of our elven clan that live in the fairy wilderness, and these compatriots are also called 'Yaling' because they have merged with the power of the fairy wilderness." Barreel-Yuehua's eyes narrowed, "However, most of the Yalings are subordinate to the Court of Joy. ”

"And those elves who belong to the court of wrath and dwell in the ice and snow of the fairy wilderness are called wild hunts."

Barrell Moonflower tells Aaron what she knows about the hunt.

Wild Hunt are elves from the fairy wilderness, who ride giant deer, wear snow-white armor, knights in tattered cloaks, and have pale skin under dead gray masks, and their eyes are like ghosts.

After the autumn equinox, the King of the Hunt leads an army of wild hunters across the night sky, and in the summer, when the power of the Court of Joy is strong, the children of the Queen of Darkness only fly high in the sky, and in the winter, when the Queen of Darkness is strong, the ride of the Wild Hunt will be even more terrifying, and they will descend on the earth to bring the breath of evil, mixed with screams, restless livestock, and lightning and thunder.

It has not been uncommon for wild hunters to abduct humans, dwarves, and even elven species in their rides, and these people have disappeared from sight and taken into the elven wilderness, only to be thrown back into their original world, leaving only an empty shell, and their souls have long been devoured by ravenous hunters and elves.

"Get ready, Your Excellency, the Wild Hunt is definitely coming for you." Barrell Moonflower covered her face a little painfully: "Do you remember your title?" The Flower Knight of the Fairy Princess? Now that you're on the side of the Court of Joy, your soul and head are definitely what the Wild Hunters want most. ”

Aaron's answer surprised Barreel, and the fairy princess's Flower Knight not only did not look nervous, jealous, or uneasy, but on the contrary, Aaron's face was glowing with a bloodthirsty halo: "Bariel, don't mind if I slaughter your elven compatriots, do you?" ”

"Compatriots? Who are my compatriots? Bariel was amused by Aaron, and the Elven Arcane High Priest clapped his hands, "Is Drow still an elf?" Are they my compatriots? My moonflower family, men, women, and children, my dear relatives, friends, and siblings, who doesn't expect all of them to die, from the spider queen to the spider to the spider? Of course...... Drow believers in the Dark Maiden of the Father's daughter, we are still willing to give them a chance. ”

"Remember, Your Excellency, only the Sun Elves, Moon Elves, and Star Elves are my compatriots in Bariel, and the rest, whatever." The Arcane High Priest said meaningfully, "If you don't mind, Your Excellency, please order the whole army to be vigilant!" ”

Bariel's attitude made Eleanor and Nestia both frown, and Miss Priest felt a slight chill in her heart, she knew that Bariel didn't look down on her blood, and usually respected her only because she was Aaron's girlfriend, but some things were ugly when they were put on the table.

It doesn't matter, she doesn't identify herself as a member of the elves anyway, she is Suren's priest and Aaron's official girlfriend.

Nestia sneered, thinking that you think I treat you as a compatriot?

The children of the Moonflower family, even the Holy Day of the Queen of the Spider in Mosoblay City are quite heavyweight sacrifices.

"I kind of understand why there are always rumors of hauntings in Hurek Forest." Aaron touched his chin: "Very good, pass on my order, the whole army is on alert!" ”

"It seems that we will not only face the druids and Huimin this time."

…………

After Aaron gave the order to the whole army, the soldiers' advance gradually slowed down, and everyone put on their armor, put their hands on their weapons, and slowly advanced through the forest.

Yes, normally speaking, when the army marches, except for the scouts in front, most of the soldiers do not wear armor, because the weight of armor is often more than 20 kilograms, and wearing such heavy equipment, even elite warrior professionals will feel the burden.

Although theoretically speaking, it is not too big a problem for an elite junior warrior to wear dozens of pounds of armor and advance more than ten kilometers on foot, but according to the authoritative data research of Candle Castle, the explosive power and reaction speed of such a warrior entering the battle after a long period of armed walking are in a state of drastic decline, and the combat power shown is naturally much inferior.

Because of Aaron's advance warning, the soldiers were mentally prepared, and the adventurers were even more excited.

Fight the legendary Wild Hunt?

Even if there is no lucrative loot now, there is something to brag about back in the tavern!

"Huh~Huh~Huh~"

The cold wind blew through the forest, whistling densely at the edge of the armor, and the forest seemed to become dark in an instant, and there was the sound of a demon spirit crossing the sky above the sky, and the sun quickly faded away, followed by a violent wind.

"Drip~Drip~Drip-Dha-Da~"

The first drop of rain fell on the armor of the orc sword saint Doherty and the guard knight Fiolena, Doherty couldn't help but smile, and the guard knight Fiorena had a serious expression, silently approaching the Sky Survey Chariot and holding her hand on the hilt of the sword.

A steady drizzle fell from the sky, lightning and thunder.

"Boom~" The army stayed directly in place, and the soldiers raised their heads and watched the raindrops as thin as hair grow larger under the roar of each lightning, from drizzle to light rain, from light rain to rain, and then from thundershowers to downpour.

The sun was shining in the sky not long ago, and the temperature began to cool rapidly, and a deep chill gradually spread into the soldiers' bodies as the rain seeped into the seams of the armor.

It's cold!

The deep chill sank into the seams of everyone's bones, the sound of demons in the distance became clearer and clearer, and the downpour gradually turned into a blizzard The moment it landed on the earth, the wild hunt descended here!

A black rider wearing an oversized helmet with antlers stepped out of the forest, and the wild hunting general Karius of the fairy wilderness mourned the royal court led his army, the tail of the phantom steed burned with black flames, and around him, four wild hounds larger than brown bears surrounded Karius, and the wild hunting general with a skull mask on his face waved towards Aaron's frame.

The enemy is there!

"Woo~Woo~Woo~"

The sound of a desolate and furious horn resounded through the forest, and the blizzard that fell from the sky immediately swept through the entire army of the Sunset Leader, instantly freezing the entire army in a snow-white world!

Trumpets sounded, hooves thundered, and hundreds of hunting knights rushed out of the forest, all of them riding phantom horses, armed with heavy weapons, walking on the ground in the chaotic forest, each knight was followed by at least two wild hounds, larger than a bear with fangs open, enough to make anyone fearful.

The knights rushed straight to the right flank of Sunset Leader's central army.

"This is the legendary Wild Hunt." Aaron, who was sitting in the chariot, pinched his chin and looked at him with admiration.

Law, riding, dogs, and foot, the four levels of serial tactics can often catch mortals off guard, and every Hunt Knight is a high-level professional strength, if it is rushed like this, the army will collapse immediately nine times out of ten.

Luckily, I was prepared.

"Eleanor!" Aaron yelled.

"Understood!" Miss Priest immediately got up, her small hand grabbing the magic book at her waist and flicking it violently.

Twilight Realm, Five-Ring Divine Technique - Power Aura!

The motherly warm aura of the moon passed through the entire battlefield, and the divine brilliance of Suren Ma Ma was embraced by the frozen soldiers, and Miss Priest raised the banner of Salian to maximize her energy: "Soldiers of the Sunset Lord! I am with you! ”

The chill on the Sunset Leader soldiers in the light faded, and they realized what kind of predicament they were in, and under the muscle memory and prior warning, and under the shouting and scolding of the Purple Dragon Knight and the non-commissioned officers of the troops, the pikemen and halberd soldiers immediately formed a strong shield array, ready to meet the charge of the Hunt Knight.

However, some reacted faster than ordinary soldiers, and the snow elves from the Supreme Ice Plains were free from the effects of the wild hunt before Eleanor raised her aura of power.

"How can this little cold subdue our snow elves?" The Archer Battalion, under the leadership of Reerta, bent their bows and arrows, and more than a hundred Archers drew their bowstrings like the moon, drawing their bowstrings in the blizzard.

"Burst Arrow!"

The locust-like arcane shot through the ranks of the blizzards in the air and the charging Wild Hunter Knights, the force field energy explosion exploded one after another Snowflakes, and the twenty or thirty Wild Hunter Knights who rushed to the front fell on their backs in front of the spear shield array, and the Wild Hunting Dogs behind them were also killed in the shooting and were swept over.

"Ready, shoot!" The dwarven muskets fired in a volley, and even the Hunter Knight, who was wearing Mithril armor, was blasted open one hole after another under the barrage of flat fire, and strings of bright blood sprang out from the wounds, which looked so dazzling in the snow-white forest.

"They are living people!"

"Wild hunts are creatures, don't be afraid of them!"

Seeing that the killing was effective, the officers and purple dragon knights roared loudly and excitedly, and the steel torrent composed of the remaining fifty or sixty hunting knights crashed into the gun array, and the front line was immediately torn open a big hole, and almost all the soldiers standing in the front row were killed on the spot or seriously injured by broken bones, but there were not a few hunting knights who were pierced by spears.

The hounds finally followed, and the creatures that were bigger than the wolf looked for their target and began to enjoy their meal.

The forest in the blizzard immediately turns into a battlefield of flesh and blood.

The white world, the red and bright colors.

The Wild Hunt General Karius looked at the scene in front of him with dissatisfaction, and he realized that his surprise attack had not worked, and that there might be someone in the human army who knew about the wild hunt.

Did the fairy princess Buyer teach her the Flower Knight?

Without time to think, the Wild Hunt General waved his hand, and hundreds of mounted infantry slowly drove into the battlefield.

"Send a signal that it's time for our allies to come to our aid." Karius said coldly, he was checking his black longbow, which he was going to use to shoot the head of the Knight of Poppers today.

As soon as the signal of the wild hunt was issued, Aaron's side immediately got the news.

"Your Excellency, there is an enemy in the rear!"

"Your Excellency, there is an enemy ahead!"

"Command all armies to defend the defense." Aaron was not surprised, he sat firmly in the middle army, and his expression was indifferent.

"Just use the blood of this wild hunt to tell everyone that we Cormiers are back."

"After today, the territorial sovereignty of Hurek Forest will once again belong to us Cormiers!"
