Chapter 442
My Villains Episode 442
65. peak of spring(17)
Hopeken Seongbaek opened his eyes in shock and collapsed in vain. It was something unexpected not only by the imperial knights who laid out the siege, but also by the heads of the electorate, including the Duke of Avilambus and Prince Savellard..
However, the army was too overwhelming to cower in fear or think about defeat just because one commander was killed..
“kill the red knight!”
The imperial knights spurred on even more at the loud shout of a noble knight dressed in splendid armor..
Instead of charging head-on, the riders on their horses, blowing dust, circled the enemy knight and fired arrows at him..
It wasn't just bows and crossbows. There were many people who looked for openings by turning hooks made of strong ropes or chains, and there were many people who grabbed the water with leather..
“These crazy guys are so magical.”
Phoenix, who had cut down even the last swordsman, quickly raised his spirit. The anti-magic field that had been suppressing him died along with the old swordsman's life, so he was free to use his magic..
Ralalak.
Pieces of dark red scales rose from the tip of his left hand and instantly covered the back of his hand and vambrace. While the ‘iron-blooded armor’ was spreading, a small disk sprouted from the red knight’s forearm..
Tsutsutsu.
The blood shed by Hofken and his disciples
It flowed back into the air and stuck to the original plate..
The dark red disk rapidly grew in size, and by the time the arrows fired by the imperial knights on horseback reached it, it was as big as a decent disk..
“This is it-!”
While Phoenix blocked the arrows with the 'Blood Shield', about twenty of the Imperial Knights who were drawing a circle with dust came out. And they all threw away the hooks that were spinning above their heads..
It would have been easy to respond with blood control techniques such as blood blowing or blood wind, but since the iron blood armor and blood shield were in full swing, I couldn't turn my blood around. I had to hit it with my body..
“Inhale,”
Kakang!
The red knight swung his sword and struck away the hooks while simultaneously throwing himself to the side. He instinctively twisted his shoulders while rolling on the ground, and the barrage of arrows aimed at openings bounced off his dark red scales and pauldrons..
While the Imperial Knights were retrieving the hooks they had thrown away and Phoenics was gathering his energy, a combat wizard fired a spell among Strom's soldiers who had already approached the riverside..
“Jaun—lacus! Yispelilo!”
A shock wave exploded from the tip of the thin wand. A shapeless mass of magic flew through the air and attacked Phoenix..
Duwoong.
“Ugh,”
‘‘Resolve’ was a spell commonly called dispel..
As the blood energy that was actively used came to a halt, the red knight staggered briefly, and the products of the blood magic that had covered him turned into blood and poured out..
Dissolution is a one-time spell, so if you take a few breaths, you will be able to escape the aftermath..
But the Imperial Knights did not miss the opportunity. He quickly pulled the string and threw the hook..
nettle!
It was a high-strength bow that could not be pulled by a normal warrior, and the arrow fired directly from a distance of only 340 meters showed terrifying power..
Every time it struck the plate armor and made a cheerful metallic sound, the steel plate would buckle..
deeply
“Ugh, shit-”
Poinix, who was dodging here and there and protecting his vital area, swallowed a curse when an arrowhead penetrated exactly below his elbow..
While he was flinching from the dull impact hitting his entire body and the sharp pain radiating from his arm, six or seven hooks were wrapped around his limbs..
“Let go, teeth, dogs!”
The red knight struggled wildly..
“ Ugh,”
“Ugh!”
With a force comparable to that of most giants, those who were pulling the hook rolled on the ground together with their war horses..
Other imperial knights who saw the scene quickly let go of the line or used agile horsemanship to maintain their balance..
“Right arm! Aim for the right arm!”
At the command of the noble knight aiming his spear, arrows were struck one after another, aiming at the right arm of the enemy knight, and the hook was intricately wrapped..
Drumming-
“Ugh!”
Nine supermen riding on large war horses pulled out the arms that had been pierced by four long arrows..
The vambrace was badly crumpled by the sharp hook, and the skin, which was tougher than cowhide, was also torn long or pierced. Phoenics did not lose his sword in the end, but he lost his balance and fell backwards..
No matter how strong he was, he couldn't use his strength without touching the ground, so the Red Knight could only struggle desperately and be dragged by nine ropes and chains..
“Now is the net!”
Among those holding the hook, four or five imperial knights were waiting for an opportunity, their eyes flashing through the gaps in their helmets. And with the skill of a skilled fisherman, he cast his net and covered Phoenix..
“Damn it-”
It was as light as an ordinary net, but extremely tough. It was also a precious item made from the products of various monsters, including the skin of a wyvern and the tendons of a troll..
With such an object wrapped around four or four layers, it was natural that even the Amman Red Knight would not be able to move..
As if hooks and nets were not enough, the saboteurs, enraged by the death of the Zen Master, threw away white pillars of light..
Poynix, who was struggling under the net with his right arm tied, was hit all over with the 'Spear of Power' as if he were being attacked..
Pretzel Gwang!
“Ugh.”
Bulbs of light successively struck my clearly exposed face, chest, and thighs. The nose and cheekbones sank and the face was instantly covered in blood, the distorted breastplate was finally broken, and two ribs as hard as steel bars were broken..
“Wow.”
A red knight is definitely a knight who pays a hundred, no, a thousand per day. However, it was impossible to defeat the elite troops provided by the highest level of power on the continent, especially the decapitation unit prepared with only the enemy knights in mind..
Gooooooo!
When Ogshlizo, who took on a gigantic form, tried to help him, the measures taken by Captain Buacan, Duke Avilambus's confidant and commander, paid off. The magic soldiers who were drawn from the four hundred magic corps of Altenburg and advanced quietly to the front poured out spells all at once..
More than thirty balls emitting blue-cold air flew in..
‘'Freezing Sphere' was not a very high-level spell, but it was so effective that the giant floating in the air quickly shrunk..
No matter how Ogshlizo he was, his mana was depleted and he couldn't rest on time, so he ended up crashing like a deflated balloon..
“Cavalry, charge! Trample everything.！”
The noble knight who served as the vanguard raised his spear high with the intention of piercing the moon..
The cavalrymen, who had been waiting among the infantry ranks without their lights on, ran towards the river, shouting in unison. The beheading unit, made up entirely of imperial knights, rushed at the red knights as if they were about to finish the mission. The sight of them throwing away their bows and crossbows and then taking out long-handled maces or axes was extremely hideous..
“Ugh, feet.”
Phoenix finally tried to get up with stable energy, but the five-layer net was still tough and his right arm was tied tightly. There was no way to stop the influx of knights..
At that time, the hidden card lost patience in the Red Knight's crisis and revealed itself..
As if to catch a general, you have to shoot at the horse first, and the bicorn was jumping around the river, trying to avoid a barrage of arrows..
Something jumped out of the shadow that the demon casted under the moonlight..
It was a black seal.
The outline was blurry and unclear, as if various shapes were overlapped. All I could vaguely see was thin armor that clung to my body without any shine, or a white mask with flowing mane..
It seemed as if it would melt into the darkness, and among the rushing imperial knights, only three with exceptionally bright eyes were able to spot the figure that had appeared on the riverside..
“That is?”
Before they could react, Inyoung kicked the ground. He jumped more than 3 meters and bent his back in the air..
and scream.
“Damn, what is this?-”
The sharp sound, like the sound of metal, made by Inyoung through the ‘Howling Mask’ spread out in all directions..
As the sound waves pierced deep into their eardrums, the Imperial Knights scrunched up their faces and covered their ears, while the cavalrymen began to gag as their vestibular organs shook. But it wasn't the riders who reacted the loudest, but the horses they rode..
Hehehehe-
“This guy, calm down.!”
“Wow, damage!”
It was quite common for horses to startle or suddenly turn in place, and it was also common for horses to hit their heads on the ground while running..
The riders who followed behind were unable to keep up with the speed, and the place became a mess as they became entangled with the fallen horses..
While the six hundred imperial knights and cavalry stopped for a moment, the screaming figure ran towards the enemy knight..
“you black whore!”
In- yeong, a noble knight who barely managed to calm down his war horse, rushed towards the assassin known as the so-called ‘black woman’..
The black Four Hundred Eyes flashed within the white mask, and three daggers resembling awls shot out like beams of light. Two of them were blocked by the ornate helmet, but one was stuck exactly in the eye hole of the faceplate..
“Ughhh!”
The neck of the noble knight with the dagger in his eye was bent as if it might break. However, he gritted his teeth with the resolve of a vanguard, and even as blood trickled down his helmet, he adjusted his grip to his sword..
W Ugh
■才、9
Lannon quickly rolled on the ground to avoid the charge..
However, the noble knight's remaining eye turned red, he broke his spear, and drove the tip into her side..
No, it looked like it was nailed down..
The woman in black momentarily blocked the magical energy flowing into the jewelry worn around her neck, and the 'blurring' spell ended and the afterimage was shot forward without a sound using the man's 'So(?)' technique..
“This kind of prostitute-”
Lannon, who deflected the noble knight with a simple trick, lunged at the struggling enemy knight and drew his short sword..
No, it wasn't a short sword. It was an ancient sword that was cut in half, ‘Geogwol’..
The sharp blade, which can cut through sheet metal like butter, flashed four times in an instant..
Not only the chains and tough ropes wrapped around Phoenix's right arm, but also the five-layer net were instantly torn apart..
“trunnion.”
“It's a bunch, ok-”
The Red Knight, supported by the masked assassin, stood up. Without even having time to catch his breath, he held out his hand towards the noble knight who was charging towards him with his sword aimed..
bang!
The brave vanguard fell from his horse, red paste spilling under his helmet..
“Oh no-!”
“lord!”
As he fell, the imperial knights who made up the beheading unit opened their mouths in shock..
“My lord has fallen!”
“Protect Your Excellency!”
“First, deal with the enemy knights first.!
“revenge!”
Several imperial knights rushed to the fallen vanguard, or rather 'Prince Peacock', and poured an expensive magic potion on his head, which had the top of its nose completely blown off..
The rest, with their eyes rolled back, attacked the red knight and the woman in black..
“Fuck— hey!”
Lee Gak-soo came running like the wind to Phoenix’s urgent shout..
While running towards Bicorn with the support of the Black Woman, the Red Knight constantly used his magic power..
‘Boiling blood’ filled with vitality flowed fiercely throughout the body, repairing the wound. Thanks to this, his physical condition improved to the point where he could run alone in just a couple of breaths..
Just before being trampled by the horses' hooves of the angry knights, Phoenix mounted his bicorn and swung the black ice, turning his waist like a thunderbolt..
Parkan!
The beam of light that was aimed at the back of his head bounced off with a loud sound, crushing the chest of an imperial knight..
Lannon, who was almost in Poynix's arms, asked a question..
“Poi, the operation is.”
“It opened.”
The red knight said that and looked back..
A soft shock wave exploded somewhere behind enemy lines. They were spraying 'detection' spells in preparation for the assassin's attack..
“Is that the leadership?……
“It's close.”
“It's dangerous. Even now, I'm tidying up, but if you disappear from sight, I'll start searching like crazy..”
Phoenics reined in the reins without any regrets, and Bicorn, who instantly widened the distance from the imperial knights, leaped like a fly and crossed the river..
This wasn't my plan.
First, the plan was to infiltrate the enemy camp, and if Iopiya, who shared her vision by 'assimilating' her, finds 'the person holding the leashes of the slaves', he will assassinate them or take their leashes away..
however…….
“I'm so bored.”
I threw away the completely empty bottle of potion and gritted my teeth as I smoothed out my nose and cheekbones, which had returned to their original positions..
I thought I could find a way out by capturing Hofken Seongbaek much more easily than I expected, but I was robbed by my knights led by a bastard called ‘Your Excellency the Prince.’.
These knights were as mean as a band of magic bandits or mercenaries, and I had no way of dealing with them on my own..
“Fight until the end!”
It was Lord Langbolt's voice..
He drew all his remaining cavalry power from inside the defense line and charged at the enemy..
Since the number of men was only about 50, it was impossible to fight against more than 600 enemy cavalry, but Sir Langbolt and a small number of knights put up an unbelievable struggle..
“Trigrams, trigrams, are you okay??”
The girl in the poncho, Iopiya, asked a question with a pale face..
Iopiya, who was sharing her senses with the bundle, fainted for a moment due to the frantic movement, but when I came back with my whole body a mess, she managed to come to her senses and perform a healing spell..
“It's not okay, but there's nothing I can do about it. “Have you found the owner of the leash yet?” The girl nodded with a dark face.
“Well, the chain is so tangled, I can't find it..”
“……First, take a good look through the bundle. Because that's the last hope.”
There was no time for leisurely conversation. The enemies were already charging into the defense line, surrounding Lord Langbolt and others..
After having Iopiya join the party preparing to flee, including Count Aeneas, I rode forward riding the bicorn..
“Start a fire! hurry!" At the shout of Chief of Staff Fogan, the soldiers who had stayed until the end threw their torches, and fire erupted from the oil-soaked pile of wooden fences and dirt..
“Fuck… … . Block it!”
The soldiers who were lying down at my harsh shouts all rose up and held out their spears. The cavalrymen who jumped over the flames crushed our soldiers and became one body..
A vicious struggle has begun.
Half of the 150 or so cavalrymen led by Sergeant Gottlob fled as soon as the enemy cavalry began charging..
The rest seemed to want to let go of their weapons, but when I swung my bloody blade and showed off the skill of cutting both horse and rider into pieces at once seven times in a row, they forced themselves to swing their weapons..
Milgrester's cavalry faced the enemy with the spirit of elite soldiers, and immediately after making contact with the cavalry, they made an excellent exchange..
The archers, who showed outstanding skills, also showed the same bravery as any other heavy armored soldier, even though they were out of arrows and only had a small ax or sword..
The mercenaries among them also fought without hesitation. It was unclear whether he believed that Count Aeneas had promised to reward his family greatly, or whether he was acting with the sincerity of a professional mercenary. But he stayed until the end until he got injured..
The sea men of Ulshore held their ground even when their limbs fell off. In front of them, their idol cut down enemies, and each time it let out a loud roar, it responded with a loud roar and lashed out a spear resembling a harpoon. If the ‘screaming waves’ didn’t stop, they wouldn’t stop fighting either..
However, among the dogs, it was the Nudein who fought the most courageously. The Hareskis, who drank 'special tea' and gave in to fanaticism, easily took on three imperial knights on their own. Ordinary warriors also brandished their weapons while chanting in chorus, ‘What about Nafi Dat?’.
After all that struggle, the repulsion of the cavalry was, in a word, a miracle..
However, the Elector Prince did not seem to have any intention of ending the battle this miraculously, and sent Strom's cavalry and slave troops straight in..
Shit." Even though there were many enemies, there were too many..
Thousands of people waved beyond the wall of flames that had spread in place of the collapsed fence and mound..
While the imperial knights were chasing a large group of cavalry, our soldiers, who had exhausted all their energy, were looking at the enemy with tired or blank eyes..
It was then. The wall of flames spread out in front of me was dyed scarlet..
Grumbling!
A shadow appeared in the flames rising high. Then, when the scarlet flames died down a little, there was a figure standing there..
Ogshlizo, an old mage who sat down on a nearby rock to catch his breath, opened his mouth and muttered..
“‘‘Descent from the Red Flame’… … . no way?”
The soldiers around me screamed at the wizard who emerged from the flames, but I couldn't hear anything..
“......uh?" While I was making a stupid expression, a wizard wearing a flame-like cape came down, stepping through the air like stairs..
“Uh, uhh?”
Sparks flew from her rich blonde tips, and her ocean-blue eyes shone mysteriously. The young woman smiled faintly against the background of the burning battlefield..
“long time no see.”
I was dumbfounded by Ellen’s greeting and just closed my eyes..
