Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Knight Lord

This guy can usually control his temper, why did he drop the chain at the critical moment? Forget it, for the sake of his lack of two hearts, and he is an old friend who has been together for so many years. Carson thought so as he led his fellow four-man knight to the other group of knights who were fighting the demons as the smoke cleared.

Carson hadn't noticed who had caused the explosion because of the distance and angle, and now he was watching them as he approached them.

'Are these guys, especially the first one, riding an earth-walking dragon, and the others are each a flaming horse!'

Without seeing it with his own eyes, Carson didn't have a real sense of his opponent's strength, but when he took a closer look, the gap between the two sides was so big that he himself was a little desperate. A few knights on Rick's side are completely enough to crush this side, from equipment to weapons, to the most important mounts for knights, they have the advantage in all aspects.

Weapons, at first glance, are full-covered knight's armor and steel knight's sword made by a high-ranking dwarven blacksmith, accompanied by a standard knight's spear and a row of throwing one-handed axes and daggers hanging from his waist.

But here are only half-knighted armor that have been used for several years, bloodstained and rusty knightly swords, and even Carson only has a good enough flail hammer as his main weapon, not even a knight's must-have such as a knight's spear. The one hanging from the waist is even more bizarre, with a chain hammer, a short sword, and even a short mallet.

"It's exactly the comparison between the regular army and the ragtag army, and you don't have to bully people like this if you have money!" Carson roared in his heart. Then he looked at the mounts on either side, and Carson couldn't help but have a series of tears in his heart.

On the opposite side is an Earth Walking Dragon and four Demonic Beasts 'Flame Horses', while here is a 'Rapid Leopard' belonging to a medium-high level Demonic Beasts and four ordinary demonized horses. Looking down completely, Carson even saw the gaze of the opposite rider on the other side.

"There's no way to fight it!" Carson thought bitterly to himself, although he had long heard that Viscount Luxembourg had an earth-walking dragon as a mount, but seeing it with his own eyes was still very different from hearing rumors, and Carson had never believed it.

It seems that he still underestimated the status of this viscount in the duke's family, and should not underestimate him, the second son who has no right to inherit. Of course, Carson, as a commoner and leader of a bande of thieves, belonged to the bottom of the ruling class, and he naturally did not know that even if Rick was only the second son of the Duke of Luxembourg, he would be able to get at least one earl when he inherited the title, as can be seen from the title he has now obtained.

But he didn't say it, he still had a small hope of turning defeat into victory, and saying it at this time would only reduce the morale of a few of his subordinates behind him, and there was no other benefit at all.

Although he thought so, Carson was uncontrollably shaken in his heart, and subconsciously even considered how to get out of it. If he knew that even the professional level was higher than this, maybe he would have turned around and retreated, and this task could not be completed.

"Tsk!" Seeing the five knights approaching here in the distance, Rick, who was sitting on the back of the sawtooth magma dragon, smacked his lips and frowned unconsciously, thought for a while, and instructed the knights beside him, "The four of you, divide into two teams, two people in each team." One team went to deal with the mentally handicapped people who were not far from death, one team went to drag the big man over there (referring to the Blade Demon here), and the five miscellaneous pieces from there were handed over to me. ”

"Yes, as you command. The four knights raised their knightly spears and gave a knightly salute to Rick, and then quickly divided into two groups and went on to complete the task as Rick had commanded.

Although Rick's share was obviously the most dangerous, the most obedient knight carried out the distribution without objection. It's not that they don't care about Rick's comfort, because they're Rick's servant knights.

In the aristocratic system and laws of the Kingdom of Ustan , although the knights were also professionals, they were not real knight nobles, not even knights, but only apprentices and servants of the knight lords.

A knight lord is an official title. It is a title that can only be obtained by a noble knight who has a knight professional level of the seventh or fourth order or above, and has a formal noble title, that is, a baron or above. A knight lord can recruit a knight professional with a professional rank to act as his subordinate knight, and no one else can recruit a subordinate knight without permission.

When the knights serve the knight lord, everything about them is the belongings of the knight lord they are loyal to, both body and soul. Of course, for His Excellency the Viscount, who had a more normal orientation, there was no need for their 'body', and there were beautiful nobles and ladies vying to climb into his bed.

As for the orders of the knight lord, these subordinate knights must obey and carry them out, otherwise the knight lord, Rick, has the right to directly execute them. So they knew that this plan might put their knight lords in danger, and they resolutely carried out their mission.

"It's been a long time since I've met an interesting 'knight', my luck seems to be very good today, Lancelot Bixia is on top, I hope you will let me enjoy the pleasure of fighting for a long time!hehe~~hahaha~~~~~~~~" Rick licked his dry and handsome lips, revealing a bloodthirsty and cruel smile, and whispered to himself hideously, unable to suppress the laughter in his throat as he spoke, and let out a low smirk.

Rick, with a strange excitement, drove the magma dragon under his seat and rushed towards Carson and his knights.

Rick's subordinate knights were loyal, fearing for the safety of their knight lord, but they could not disobey his orders. The only thing they can do is to quickly solve their division of labor goals, and then go to reinforce Rick.

As the people who can be said to know Rick's strength best, they have no worries about Rick fighting those five knights, they believe that Rick will have absolutely no problem in a short period of time, and it is not even impossible to defeat them. So now they just need to hurry, after all, the longer the time drags on, the greater the danger for Rick, although this danger is only a difference in the size of the injury.

A total of four swirling flames appeared on the bodies of the Inferior Demon and the Blade Demon, of course, for the Inferior Demon with extremely high flame resistance, it was only a little injured, and the Blade Demon's magic power was enough for them to resist the 'Flame Vortex' that was only a mere part of the magic.

Since there is no way for their mounts, the knights can only fight the demons through their own strength, but this is a relatively long process.
