"Click!"

The Knight of Lothric's greatsword is infused with the light of a blessed weapon, a large and sharp blade.

A straight and sharp arc slashed through midair, slicing through the bodies of the three enemies in front of him like a hot knife slicing butter.

It's like cutting off three straw men.

Lothric is a country that slays dragons, and the knights of Lothric, who are the pillars of force, are also knights who can slay dragons.

It's just that later, for some reason, he began to be with the dragon.

But that doesn't mean they're getting weaker.

The specifications of the Knight's greatsword of Lothrick are evident as evidenced by the fact that this is a weapon intended to slaughter giant creatures.

Every time this sword slashes, it can bring the sound of 'Zilala' electric turmoil, as well as golden arcs.

This means that this kind of great sword has the power of supernatural thunder and lightning that can target the dragon clan during the forging process.

"These guys don't seem to be out of the ordinary."

Behind the Knight's Chief, Lane swung his sword to block an enemy who wanted to sneak up from behind, and then pressed half of his body over. Crushed the man against the stone brick wall, restricting movement and struggle, while the blade stabbed into the body as it squeezed.

However, the battle situation was not very stressful, but it did not make the Knight Captain and Lan En feel relaxed.

Because the goal of the two of them in the first place was to find out why these attackers were not afraid of dragon breath.

But these enemies who attack the gatehouse. It's so normal.

The gatehouse on the bridge resembles a small gate. Above it is an arrow platform, a walkway, connected to the bridge deck by a narrow staircase.

If the enemy wants to attack it, it will be about the same as the difficulty of attacking the city.

These attackers are generally of a higher standard than ordinary soldiers, so they are still able to storm upwards in unfavorable terrain.

However, the 'high level' of this combat effectiveness cannot be regarded as an 'abnormal' range.

"I don't know!"

The knight of Lothric, who was the leader of the platoon, shouted without looking back, while continuing to advance down the stairs.

"It's too chaotic here, there's so little to see!"

The current situation is really messy.

The attackers attacked up the stairs, and the Lothric soldiers, who were originally in charge of guarding, were defeated, while the knight chief and Lanne tried to counterattack down to gather intelligence.

Lots of people panicked and huddled together on the battlefield of the tip of the knife and death.

Their shouts, their screams, and their dancing blades in such a panic that they couldn't tell the enemy from the other.

In the absence of prior precautions, the effect of a surprise attack is so outstanding.

"Bastard!"

After finally squeezing past the panicked own soldiers, and finally there were no more friendly troops in all directions, the knight commander of Rosric, who seemed to be unhappy for a long time, couldn't help but shout and curse.

The narrow staircase, as well as the friendly troops just now, made him so restrained that he couldn't do it.

And now.

"Whew~"

It was as if the movement was pulling the air and whistling.

The chief knight of Lustric raised his greatsword over his shoulder and pressed forward with a lunge.

A visibly supernatural white phantom, leaving a slightly slower beat after his movements.

[Combat Skill: Arrow Step]!

It's like a standard posture that has been tempered for a long time.

The prelude to this action is the same as that of the Church Knight, but the subsequent offensive moves are very different.

It stands to reason that it would not be wise to use such a move with a large range of movements and flaws in the enemy pile.

However, in the process of casting [Combat Skill], because of the synchronous use of Soul Power, no matter how the enemy attacks, as long as the casting of [Combat Skill] has already begun, then Soul Power will ensure that it will continue to run.

At the same time, the enemy's attacks in the process will also be greatly weakened due to the soul power used by the caster.

Although this timing is not long, it is difficult to grasp. But for the skilled and battle-hardened warriors, a split second opportunity is enough to turn the tide of battle.

Sure enough, the moment the knight chief put on a posture, the enemies surrounding him subconsciously attacked him.

But these attacks, which should have deformed even the armor, only made the flesh under his armor a little bit of blood at this moment.

The next moment, "Sting!" ”

The hilt of the great sword that had been held on his shoulder drooped, and the two-meter-long blade had begun to glide from behind him, from back to front.

The blade of the great sword rubbed against the stone brick floor with a dazzling spark!

Then it was as if he had accumulated strength in this sliding on the ground.

"Click" with a bang!

The blade of the sword, which was finally dragged to the front by the knight chief, suddenly burst out with all its power!

On this narrow staircase, from the bottom to the top, a complete upper chop was cut!

The power of this slash is completely different from the usual slashing of the previous knight chief!

Prior to this, the Knight Chief, who had not used [Combat Skills], was also a powerful warrior in Lan En's eyes.

But the cross-section was a long stone the size of a basin, and he could cut more than half of it with a single sword.

And under this [Battle Skill], his big sword not only directly picked off the stumps of at least seven or eight enemies in front of him, but also splashed a rain of blood.

Even the stone brick staircase under his feet has been blown off a lot!

The entire bridge is made of these stone bricks, which are long strips of stone with the size of a basin in cross-section.

The stones that were picked up by this blow were smashed backwards with the same force as those smashed by a catapult.

The enemies on the stairs below didn't have much to deal with in front of the blasted stones, and could only let out a muffled sound of bones breaking in flesh and blood, and screams of pain.

Once [Combat Skill], combined with a narrow, one-line staircase, the Knight Commander will empty the enemy in front of him almost instantly!

And the rest of them were also unstable in the process of their own large number of casualties and their bodies naturally rolling down.

"[Alder]!"

With a 'bang', a shock wave of transparent air swept over the chief knight and swept towards the attackers who were still standing sporadically below.

The last wave of impact completely caused everything on the stairs below to roll down.

Scattered stones, corpses, stumps, tumbling living people.

"[Force Burst]? Are you Catalina? ”

As he walked down, the chief knight asked in some surprise.

Lan didn't speak behind him, as if he had confused the Witcher's sigil effect with something else in this world.

"I thought the knights of Catalina would just drink heavily and sing in that funny armor. You're kind of a taciturn person. ”

As if it was about to descend to the bridge, the chief knight laughed at the knight of Catalina in a relaxed tone as he walked down.

And Lan En adheres to the principle of 'less talk and less mistake', just nodding silently.

An entire staircase up the staircase had been cleared, which was bad news for the attackers.

They couldn't even spare the manpower to continue the attack for a while.

Lan En and the chief knight walked down the stairs quickly, just in time to see two dragoons in the sky, and controlled the flying dragon to spew fire and sweep here.

They flashed in the sky and had a limited field of vision. So I can only spit fire on the bridge deck in a regular manner.

To prevent damage to allies, Dragon's Breath does not extend the coverage of the staircase and the gatehouse above the staircase.

The two of them, who walked down the stairs quickly, happened to see the appearance of the attacker who had been rushed and rolled onto the bridge deck, burned by the dragon's breath.

The flame in the wyvern's mouth is not only hot, but also has a powerful deflagration impact.

Lan En saw an attacker who hadn't gotten up yet, slammed into the wall by the dragon's breath.

Then there was a terrible scream, and the 'crackling' sound of flesh being burned rapidly.

Burning to death is simply one of the most painful ways to die.

By estimating the temperature of the dragon's breath, Mentos has simulated what the consequences of ordinary people being burned by the dragon can be.

These attackers did burn a little slower under the flames.

But Lan En understands very well that the close connection between body and soul of the people of this world makes it impossible to see them according to the standards of 'ordinary people' in other worlds.

Therefore, he didn't say much, just watched what the chief knight had to say about this scene.

And under the hidden observation of the cat's eyes, the expression of the knight chief who lifted his mask was indeed puzzled.

These attackers who were driven down the stairs, their burning effect should be normal in this world.

"Looks like I'm going to have to go to the bridge and find the attackers who can resist the dragon's breath."

The knight chief said earnestly.

"Don't come along, thank you for your help."

"Do you say that, can the dragoons see you?" Lan asked with a frown. "Can they control the Wyvern and not include you in the breath range?"

The witcher listened to the knight's command, and always felt like he was going to 'take an adventure'.

The knight chief shook his head silently, it seemed that those Lothric dragoons had not yet controlled the wyvern's breath, allowing it to accurately bypass a person's precise control.

"But someone has to do it, and if you can't clean up the small mess, it will become a big mess. It can't be delayed any longer. ”

Lane looked at the chief knight of Lothric, he had already seen many people who could give their lives for something.

This is obviously another one.

This kind of person can't be persuaded.

The witcher shook his head and held out his left hand towards a shield scattered across the bridge in the distance.

The mechanical hook on it activates with the mechanism.

The shield was a kite-shaped shield, and because it was blown away by a wave of dragon breath just now, the outer side of the arc-shaped bulge fell to the ground and was shaking.

The precise hook claw hooked directly into the fixed grip on the inside of the shield, hooking it over.

The shield seemed to have a gorgeous relief on the shield surface, but now after a few rounds of dragon breath, only a patch of black ash was left on it.

With the hook lock retracted, Lan grabbed the shield and handed it to the chief knight.

"I know I can't stop you, but I'm going to hold something first. That sword didn't have much area to defend against. ”
