Woohoo......

The bolt burst through the air and shot at Parker's party.

The old knight roared angrily, and with a wave of the silver sword in his hand, it turned into several streamers, cutting off all eight crossbow arrows.

After that, he shouted:

"Listen, all knights! Escort Master Parker to go first! I'll take care of these griffon knights! ”

After speaking.

The whole person stomped on the ground and burst out like a spring, shooting into a tree on the left.

After a few more bounces, he actually flew up fifty or sixty meters in the air by means of a tree, and came to a griffin knight and cut it down with a sword!

"What!"

The griffin knight obviously didn't expect this old knight to have such strength, and in surprise, he directly raised his bow and crossbow to resist.

As a result, the people with the crossbow were cut in half, and the blood rushed out!

The griffon beneath him was also wounded by the blow, and fell to the ground with the old knight.

"Damn! Keep your distance from the ground, this old thing is a level 12 powerful paladin! ”

A griffin knight roared.

A mention of the griffin's reins caused the griffin to flap its massive wings, raise it a few feet, and then raise its crossbow bolt and shoot at the old knight in another barrage.

However, they were easily cut down by the old knight.

And at this time.

Several knights also took the opportunity to protect Parker and began to continue to escape.

However, as soon as the griffin knight saw it, he immediately shifted his target.

The old knight roared again and bounced, trying to repeat his old trick and slay a griffon knight.

It's a pity that these griffon knights have been on guard.

On the contrary, the old knight was inconvenient to dodge in the trees, and he was a little embarrassed when he was persecuted, if he hadn't had a silver armor on his body, he would have been shot and injured a long time ago!

The Griffin Knight pursues Parker and the others.

Drop the cold arrow from time to time.

made Parker and his party more and more anxious.

"Parker Farrow! Give up resistance! Accept the punishment obediently! That might leave a whole corpse behind! The griffon knight in the sky roared, trying to break Parker's will.

"Shut up! We're not rebels! The brutes of the Sicarre family! Your lord has betrayed the allegiance of the Pharo out of greed.

Sooner or later, you brutes who helped him will go to hell! Parker roared furiously.

"Dare to insult the great Sicarre! Look for death! The griffon knight was equally furious.

Woohoo~

A barrage of sharp arrows fell again.

Several of them even shot directly at Parker.

A ripple was raised.

But two more fell on the knight who fled with him.

One of the knights was shot in the leg.

One of the knights had his arm pierced and let out a roar of pain.

Knights with pierced arms can continue to run.

But those whose legs were shot had to fall to the ground.

"Cassie!!"

Parker looked back abruptly and yelled.

"Leave me alone! Master Parker! Keep running! ”

The fallen knight roared.

"Young Master, keep running! Don't stop! ”

The old knight roared as well.

"A bunch of brutes!"

Parker was so grief-stricken that he could only keep running.

He looked painfully at his fellow spellcasters who were also running, but were able to do two things.

Until......

The spellcaster's partner jerks up his staff.

A strange burst of magic sounds.

Hundreds of meters around, all the birds in the trees rioted, chirping, and rushed towards the griffons like madness.

Use their sharp beaks to peck at the griffons.

"Wow, ahhhh

"Roar!!"

"What's going on? How did this flock of birds go crazy? ”

"Damn! What the hell did that spellcaster do! ”

"Abominable spells!"

The screams of griffons and knights rang out from the sky.

These guys are crazy and want to kill these rampaging birds, banish them, and pounce them in the sky.

This gave Parker and his party a chance to escape.

The old knight was left to kill as many griffon knights as he could, as well as to prevent possible further pursuits.

"Hahaa......a

Heavy wheezing echoed through the trees.

Parker felt physically and mentally exhausted.

But for a while.

Even the most trusted old knight, Frois, had left him, leaving him even more uncertain about what the future would hold.

But the good thing.

Intense beams of light in front of him dispelled his blankness.

A group of them ran in the direction of the beam.

Finally broke through the entire Great Forest of Death.

Outside.

It's a grassland.

On the grassland, there is a group of wild beasts and demonic beasts, almost as far as the eye can see......

Looking back at the Great Forest of Death behind him.

The fire has spread for a small half.

Billowing smoke rose into the sky.

"Finally came out...... But then it's the point.

There must be people from the Sicarre family around here!

After that, I asked Master Parker and Fava to change their gear, and then we ran separately in pairs. ”

The caster said with a heavy expression.

"Give my armor to Fava? That's not to make Fawatha ......"

"Young master, you don't need to say it! This is the fate of being a knight! ”

A knight growled.

Quickly take off the armor on your body.

"Parker! Don't grind around at critical moments, we don't have that much time. The caster urges.

Parker didn't say a word, silently putting down the noble armor under his legs.

After that, they swapped clothes with the knights, and in pairs, they began to flee separately......

It is more than ten miles away from the Great Forest of Death.

A town with a population of only 1,000 people.

Wooden watchtower tower.

A soldier yawned a little boredly, a little out of the way.

Thinking in my heart.

Are you going to eat at a friend's house tonight? Or go to the house of the widow Joel next door?

One thought of Joel.

The soldier's mind couldn't help but think of the other party's big white legs, and he was a little demented for a while, and his body relaxed for a while, and the whole person fell to the side.

Almost fell straight off the watchtower.

Fortunately, he reacted in time and stabilized his body.

But it also made him break out in a cold sweat.

I took a slow breath.

Steady his mind and glance into the distance.

After this look, his face was a little puzzled, and then he rubbed his eyes carefully.

What did he see?

The originally peaceful Great Forest of Death actually appeared in a raging fire, and thick smoke rose into the sky.

There are also some small black dots, rushing towards here!

Damn it! Someone set fire to the Great Forest of Death!

This...... This is about to be a beast plague!

After coming up with a possible result.

The soldier was full of excitement, and hurriedly picked up the horn on the watchtower, which was usually like a decoration, and blew it.

A whining sound sounded

The whole town heard it clearly.

This made the expressions of the people in the town gradually change from flat to panicked:

"This ...... This voice seems to be a clarion call for combat readiness! ”

"Is there an intruder?"

"Intruders? How could there be intruders? How could we have it on our side? ”

Many of the people were shocked and puzzled.

It's been a long time, they haven't experienced war for a long time, and they are a little dazed and ignorant for a while.

And in the city lord's manor.

The owner of the territory who was lying on a chaise longue, enjoying the maid's feeding.

Baron Saab, too, was shocked at this moment.

He jumped up from the chaise longue at once, and his fat body knocked the maids around him to the ground, but he didn't have time to scruple, but opened his mouth and yelled:

"Deni! Denis! ”

"Lord Baron! I'm here! ”

A middle-aged knight in gray-black armor appeared, and said respectfully.

"Tell me! What the hell is going on out there? Could it be that someone from Uraru's side called?

Haven't they been locking up the country all the time? ”

The baron asked anxiously.

"Wait a minute, Lord Baron, my knights have already gone to inquire about the situation, and I believe that it will not be long before the truth will be known."

The knight said softly.

Let the baron recover a little, but still pace in place.

Until another soldier broke in.

The baron stopped pacing and shouted:

"Quick! Tell me! What the hell is going on? Why is the horn sounded? ”

"Lord Baron! Captain! There was a fire on the other side of the Great Forest of Death, and the fire was very large, causing a wave of beasts. ”

"Beast...... Beast Tide ......"

The baron almost fainted when he heard this.

He had never encountered a beast tide in his life.

But he had heard his father, the previous lord, mention the Beast Tide incident.

At that time, the number of the people under his command was at least three or four thousand, and the number of soldiers was hundreds.

But under the tide of beasts, it was washed away, and to this day, the territory has not recovered.

And because of this.

The Baron has always had an inexplicable fear of the beast tide.

"How can the Great Forest of Death catch fire? Didn't you say that the kingdom had some soldiers to guard it? Why is this happening? Will they not even quench the fire? ”

The baron was crying.

"The Great Forest of Death has not had problems for more than 30 years.

The number of soldiers guarding the town is also getting smaller and smaller, but I didn't expect that there was still a problem after all......

Now what we should do is to gather an army to defend the town and protect the people under the onslaught of the beast tide! ”

The middle-aged knight said, and he was going to prepare.

But the baron rushed up, grabbed his arm and said:

"Don't! Denis protect me! Protect me from here, this town can't be defended, protect me from here! ”

"Your Excellency...... You're going to abandon your people? ”

The middle-aged knight was stunned, a little incredulous.

"I can't hold it! I can't hold it at all! My father also had a beast tide at that time, an army of 400 people! Four thousand lords!

In the end, less than a thousand people died.

I've heard that many cities with tens of thousands of people have been shattered under the tide of beasts.

How much more about us? ”

"But if you don't keep it, the people won't have time to escape from the beast tide, and I'm afraid the casualties will be even heavier......"

The middle-aged knight whispered.

Then he glanced at the soldier who had just spoken:

"You then run away with the Baron and my guards, and I will protect this city.

The Baron went out for refuge first, and waited for the disaster to end before returning. ”

"Ned, you...... Good! Since you want to die so much, then it's up to you! ”

The Baron was a little angry.

But it is also more to listen to the arrangement of the middle-aged knight.

And so on for a moment.

The baron in the manor, led by several knights, began to flee.

And with him fled with a multitude of his lords.

Merely.

The barons rode horses, while the common lords ran on their legs......

Only a few of the subjects remained.

Look to the central avenue.

The middle-aged knight was fully armed, leading nearly a hundred soldiers in the city to the front of the city to face the beast tide.

The black tide of beasts, like a black line with no boundless edge, surged towards the entire town.

The distance between the two sides is less than two kilometers at the moment!

"Shhh...... Whew......"

The middle-aged knight took a deep breath.

At this moment, even when he faced the beast tide, he couldn't help but feel a little chill in his heart.

Turning his head to look at the other soldiers beside him, he saw their trembling bodies and trembling legs.

With a hint of regret in his eyes, he roared:

"All soldiers! I know you're scared! I'm just like you on this!

But we, as soldiers guarding our people, have no qualifications to be afraid.

Behind us, it is our homeland and our family that are guarded!

If even we were scared, we ran away.

Then the homeland will be destroyed and all the families will die!

So we can't go back!

Hold on!! We don't have to face the whole beast tide, as long as we resist the group that faces the town!

With a wooden fence, a bow and arrow, and two powerful spellcasters fighting alongside us, we were able to defeat the beast tide this time!

Soldiers! We can win! ”

The middle-aged knight raised his two-handed greatsword in his hand and shouted.

Some of the other soldiers were silent, others shouted along.

Anyway, the morale is finally some.

The beast tide is getting closer.

The soldiers were also getting nervous.

Until there are still hundreds of meters.

They can almost see it.

Those strong beasts and monsters in the beast tide!

This made them even more frightened.

Until a horse more than two meters tall broke into the iron sheet wood that had already been laid out.

The pierced wow wow screamed, jumping in place, causing the rear to fall.

It gave them a little bit of courage back.

At this point, the attack range is also sufficient.

The middle-aged knight roared.

One by one, the soldiers used their bows and crossbows, threw spears, and shot at the fastest in the tide of beasts.

Two casters also used spells together.

Red orbs of flame and arcane missiles for accurate shooting.

They also howled and howled.

For a moment the wails and screams of the beasts continued to fall one after another.

This delighted the soldiers.

Someone even shouted:

"It works! There are iron pieces that have already been arranged, wooden rejection! And the caster!

We can stop it! ”

"Stop them and protect our homes, our families!"

While roaring, the faster they attacked.

But right away.

This kind of excitement comes and goes quickly.

A giant bear with a gray and black body and a body length of three or four meters appeared from behind the beast tide.

Knock some of the other beasts that fell to the ground into the air.

Then he slammed into the wooden fence that surrounded the town, smashing it to pieces.

Then it crashed into the rear, and a soldier with a shield knocked it out like a broken doll!

The soldiers were frightened, and the courage stepped forward and slashed at the neck of the giant bear with a sword, intending to kill it.

As a result, he was swatted like a fly, and flew out upside down with one paw!

"Roar!!"

The giant bear roared and began to rampage.

The entire defensive ring was also completely torn apart.

And resist the tide of beasts.

It is precisely the one that cannot be notched the least.

As long as there is a problem with one defensive opening, then the entire line of defense is not far from collapse......

So, just for a moment.

Hordes of beasts and monsters broke into the town.

Wailing, screaming, and crying echoed through the sky.

This tide of beasts eventually crushed over the town.

"It's over...... It's over......"

At least two or three kilometers away.

The Baron sat behind a knight's horse, turned his head to look back, and found that his town was flooded with beasts, and his face changed dramatically.

"When will this damn beast tide end! These brutes don't mean to stop at all! ”

He was so angry that he couldn't stop cursing.

"I want the tide to stop, unless they find a new place to live.

However, these animals are forest creatures and generally do not stop in the grassland.

Now we have to find a city that is strong enough to withstand the tide of beasts.

Otherwise, if you keep delaying, and if the horses under you can't hold on, it's all over. ”

Beside him, a voice came from the cold.

The baron was taken aback.

Turn your head to look.

A knight and a spellcaster followed them closely on a monster that looked like a bear and a horse.

Oddly enough, the caster was harnessing the monster beneath him.

The knight sat behind him.

But.

These two people should also be affected by the beast tide.

Lord Baron couldn't help but think in his mind.

In the face of the other party's words, he also said:

"Looking for a shelter...... Then go to Nile City.

Silo Utrasis and his bastards are hateful though.

But speaking of safety.

With the exception of the royal capital, there should be few cities safer than there. ”

"Let's go together!"

Of the two, the spellcaster whispered.

The hands surging with magic gently stroked the head of the mount below him.

"Wow......"

The beast that looked like a bear and a horse under him chirped softly.

After that, following the baron's team, he turned a corner and headed towards Nile City......
