Lothar didn't know that his two squires had already made up the identity of Prajna as witches, or that he wouldn't care if he knew.

Because there is no witch hunt in this world, witches can even act as advisors to the emperor of a country.

Moreover, this kind of brain supplement cannot be miscalculated.

In fact, he felt that a witch of ordinary level could not be an opponent of Prajna at all.

Among the five attributes given by the system.

Strength is best understood, covering everything from attack power, speed, weight-bearing capacity, etc.

Agility represents speed and reflexes.

Stamina represents the endurance of the battle, the ability to recover, and the health bar.

Endurance is likewise about endurance, but it's more about defense.

Mental power is also easy to understand, that is, the blue bar.

Even if it is not a skill, in terms of attributes, it can be regarded as an extraordinary person of the same level as a wizard.

It's just a Refining Stream wizard like Gandalf.

In addition, the one in her hand, in the setting, is a shield made of the fragments of the Ghost Gate, a proper artifact, whether it is physical attack or witchcraft, there is almost no way to penetrate it.

...

On the endless plateau, a convoy with red and white striped flags is slowly moving.

Knights and retainers, dressed in a variety of costumes and with different coats of arms, rode gracefully in front of the procession.

Behind him were clothed servants and attendants, as well as more than a dozen sergeants wearing chain armor.

At the head of the procession, a knight in a blue burqa, adorned with peacock feathers on his head, commanded: "Be on guard, for this is the most dangerous part of the trade route to Tyrol, where fugitives and robbers, who are so poor that they can only nibble on cabbage and turnips, may at any moment rush down the hillside with dung forks and axes to fight with us." ”

"If you frighten the noble countess, all of you will be hung on the gallows."

The sergeants replied weakly, "Yes, sir." ”

The Peacock Knight's expression was a little grim.

Switzerland is a remote country with many mountains.

The western part of the country is relatively stable, the Swabian region, the core of the Hohenstaufen family, to which the emperor belongs.

But the further east, and closer to the borders of the Diocese of Trento, the more impoverished and chaotic it becomes.

The hardship of the people, coupled with the serious exploitation of the lords, will produce a large number of escaped serfs, into the mountains for the sake of the cowards, plus this is located at the junction of the two places, and the lords of both sides are too lazy to invest a lot of manpower and material resources to clean up.

As if confirming the peacock knight's hunch, on the mound at the end of the horizon, more than a dozen black spots suddenly appeared, more and more, and they became larger and larger, and finally got a glimpse of the whole picture.

It was more than thirty cavalrymen wearing chain mail and leather armor.

They are not mountain dwellers or robbers that the Peacock Knights are wary of, but a cavalry force!

They lined up, standing on the hillside, staring coldly at the convoy not far away.

The convoy immediately stopped.

The sergeants and servants were terrified.

Everyone knows that this kind of open area is the world of cavalry, and if they are defeated, they will not even be able to run.

In the carriage, the Countess's charming voice sounded: "Fred, what happened?" ”

"Countess, an enemy is coming."

The Peacock Knight came to the carriage and whispered a reminder, and then shouted, "Everyone is ready to meet the enemy, protect the lady's carriage, and no one is allowed to approach." ”

Immediately, he stepped forward with two horsemen and shouted to the approaching cavalry.

"Stop! This is the convoy of the Calf family from Augsburg, and you are offending the countess with noble blood, please retreat immediately. Otherwise, my soldiers and I will slit your throats and let the wild dogs entrenched in the mountains chew your bones. ”

The cavalry was getting closer.

There were about thirty of them, some of them were wearing tattered jackets, some were wearing chain armor, and their equipment looked average, but the fierce momentum they exuded still made the Peacock Knight feel quite tricky.

The cavalryman at the head of the group, with a sneering smile on his face, pulled up a hunting bow.

The arrow snapped and landed on the kite shield held by the Peacock Knight.

His attitude has been made clear, from the beginning to the end, they have no idea of negotiating.

The knight was furious and shouted, "Knights, follow me, and the rest rely on the carriage for defense!" No one is allowed to leave the car formation without permission! ”

...

On the other side of the hill, Moder frowned and asked, "My lord, are we going to intervene?" ”

"I can't do it without meddling."

Lothar pointed to the two scout cavalrymen who were not involved in the attack and were wandering around: "They have already discovered us. ”

"Even if we lose all our baggage, we will not be able to escape the pursuit of a group of light cavalry that comes and goes. After all, Prajna, Ryan, and you can only ride pack horses. ”

Lothar sighed lightly, and then said in a loud voice: "Squire, take me and get ready to fight." ”

He put on the hood of his hooded chain mail and burqa, and fastened the barrel helmet to his head, revealing only a slit in his eyes, and the world fell silent.

The sound of his breathing, echoing through the dull barrel helmet, grew heavier and heavier.

Ryan handed over his heavy mounted rifle, which he held in his right hand and a zither-shaped shield in his left, and hung his armed sword in the saddle.

Prajna whispered, "Do you want me to come with you?" ”

Lothar shook her head: "I'm afraid your horse won't be good. ”

The horse that Prajna rode was the pack horse given by Father Soyo in the town, and the difference between a pack horse and a real war horse was actually quite large.

Pack horses are more endurance-oriented and less demanding of breed.

The war horse is not only taller, faster, and more explosive than the pack horse, but even the courage is much greater than that of the pack horse.

Prajna frowned and said, "I don't need a mount to catch up with you." ”

Lothar was stunned, but still shook her head and said: "Forget it, this is more or less shocking, you guys are here to get ready, I believe in Joey's speed." ”

Joey was his Nisaan warhorse, and he ate concentrate feed every day, and a considerable part of the supplies carried by the three pack horses were exclusively for it.

In the county, Joey was second to none as a fast horse.

He was confident that even if he couldn't beat him, it would be okay to escape.

What's more, he is still very confident in his own strength, and the knight training he has experienced since he was a child makes him a war machine, but he has not yet experienced the baptism of war.

Coupled with his excellent armor, the possibility of overturning is very small.

Pranya nodded and said, "Okay, then we will be here to prepare to meet you." ”

Two squires were ready for battle, one armed with a sword and shield, the other winding the crossbow, but the two of them were limited in their role in the open area.

Lothar chose them because he wanted to play a role in mountain warfare.

I never thought that the first battle would be on an open plateau.

"Whew-"

Lothar let out a sigh of relief.

The dull barrel helmet seemed to be covered with a layer of mist.

In a thin line of vision, the two scout cavalry wandering beside them had already launched a charge in this direction.

Lothar lightly clamped the horse's belly.

The sound of horses' hooves suddenly rang in my ears.

Lothar clenched the riding gun in his hand, only to feel the adrenaline rushing and his heart like a war drum, the drum beating thunderously.

Gun charge, is the knights in a queue, go hand in hand to use the tactics, without the cover of comrades, the gun charge can easily lead to the knights to show flaws.

So he takes a normal stance with a gun, which reduces the damage from the charge, but also makes him more agile.
