Chapter 114: The Knight's Contract
And Giroud's long-awaited opportunity to repay the favor soon came.
The unknown nobleman, who conveyed his first combat mission through Paye, led his cavalry squad to participate in an operation organized by the Church of Shadows to attack a manor on the outskirts of Banki, the Earl of Steyer, a prominent nobleman in Cyprus. They were only responsible for the offensive against the enemy, as for the aftermath after victory
Originally, he also thought so, an earl's manor, and it was also a manor outside the territory, it was impossible to have too much defense liliang, it should be a very easy battle.
'But no one told us that there were so many people here, what was the matter with that magician who looked very high-level, and I didn't hear of dealing with such a monster!' Giroud's ears echoed with the loud shouts of killing on the battlefield in the distance, and he looked back at the tall giant humanoids that were faintly visible, and a very bad feeling slowly rose in his heart.
It seems that this battle is a bit hanging, and if you don't know it, you will have to explain it here. Giroud thought negatively, then shook his head again, banishing the negative thoughts out of his brain.
It's too late to say anything, it's impossible to escape now, the most important thing now is to deal with the enemy in front of you first, and then talk about getting through this level first. Looking at Wepa and the others, and the mounts beneath them, Giroud smiled wryly once more.
Giroud is a rank 7 knight, and he rides a low-level demonic beast mount that is similar to that of a normal demonized horse, the Electric Zebra. This is a low-level Warcraft mount, which belongs to the Lightning Warcraft classification, and is a low-level Warcraft mount that is very popular with the majority of low-level knights, just like the Flame Horse of Viscount Rick's Servant Knight.
Its racial specialty is the lightning type magic that can release a ring of elemental factions - secondary electric shock technique, as the name suggests, it is to form an electric current through magic to attack the enemy and produce electric shock damage, which will have a certain chance of paralyzing effect, after all, flesh and blood creatures will have similar phenomena when they are electrocuted.
Compared to the 'Flame Horse', this 'Electric Zebra' is basically the same in terms of combat effectiveness and help to the knights. But don't let that make you think that this Giroud knight is about the same strength as Viscount Rick's subordinate knight.
He was a seventh-level knight, and even if both sides were riding mounts with similar combat effectiveness, Giroud's comprehensive combat power was not comparable to those fourth-level knights. This is not because his own combat effectiveness is higher, as we said earlier, the relationship between the level of combat effectiveness between the knights and the combat effectiveness of the knights themselves is not very large.
The most important thing is that as a knight of the seventh level, he is more able to exert the strength of the mount under his command than the knight of the fourth level. Because although the combat skills of the knight class overlap a lot with the professional skills of the berserker, the knight has a contract skill that can give full play to the ability of the mount at each stage.
This is the ride contract we mentioned earlier. Both the 'Flame Horse' and the 'Electric Zebra' are low-level Warcraft mounts, and if they want to use all of their strength as mounts, they need to use the fourth-order contract qualification of the knight class, the 'Minor Warcraft Sharing Contract'
The 'Lesser Warcraft Sharing Contract' is the contract qualification of the fourth stage of the knight profession, and the knights who have reached the seventh level or above can fairly obtain the qualification of the 'Contract Knight' Lancelot to allow the contract of the secondary Warcraft, that is, the qualification of the contract with some low-level Warcraft, the 'Electric Zebra' and the 'Flame Horse' we mentioned earlier belong to this category.
The 'Lesser Monster Sharing Contract' can be a communication channel between the two parties to the contract, i.e. the Knight's Beast Mount, to establish a telepathy-like communication channel, allowing the two parties to communicate with each other in some simple ways.
The Knight can only convey simple commands such as 'dodge', 'attack', and 'accelerate' to the mount, while Warcraft can only convey simple emotions such as 'fear', 'anger', and 'happiness' to the Knight.
Don't underestimate the transmission and emotional expression of these simple instructions, for low-level Warcraft who have a certain amount of wisdom but extremely bad intelligence, there is an insurmountable gap between the combat effectiveness generated by fighting under the command of high-level intelligent creatures and the combat ability to fight independently or without clear instructions.
It can even be said that the usually short-tempered Warcraft, without the ability to fully communicate with the knights, are even less effective than ordinary demonized mounts. Because they are hot-tempered, they usually violate or ignore the knight's wishes from time to time, and make actions that are not related to the knight's orders, or even completely opposite.
In this regard, there is a decisive gap between demonic beasts and demonic creatures with a relatively docile personality (even if they have a good temper after demonization, but the docile nature of the original herbivores still exists).
Any mistake in the battle can lead to a deviation in the outcome of the battle, not to mention the obvious unhelpful actions of the Warcraft.
For example, for example, the Knights of Viscount Rick's subordinates, their class level is level four, so they are not eligible for the 'Minor Warcraft Sharing Contract', so they can't communicate with their Warcraft mounts, and they will disobey orders from time to time. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a knight who has studied well to make the low-level mistake of "unleashing a doomed 'flame vortex' on a blade demon with high magical power", which is due to the fact that their monster mounts are so adept at asserting.
The 'Minor Monster Sharing Contract' is a watershed moment for the knight's profession, and the previous 'Demon Creature Sharing Contract' can also get the help of the Demon Creature (after the contract improves the knight's basic physical qualities such as physical strength, liliang, etc.), it can also be used for simple communication.
However, the physical fitness and combat ability of the demonized creatures themselves are far inferior to the demonic beasts, even the lowest-level demonic beasts. As we all know, the proportion of the knight's ability to obtain the blessing of its mount is almost the same, that is to say, the amount of additional ability obtained by the knight profession depends entirely on the strength of the mount's ability, and a strong mount can naturally bring greater improvement to the knight.
And even the physical quality of the secondary demonic beasts is almost much higher than that of those demonized creatures, and naturally the help of the knights is very different, not to mention that most of the demonic beasts have 'racial specialties' that demonized creatures do not have.
So the knight of level 7 against the knight of level 6 is destined to be a one-sided battle, unless the knight of level 7 has just been promoted and has not yet found his new mount.
