The Blood Knight’s Villains - Chapter 314
My Villains Chapter 314
56. Frontier (7)
Most of the snow had melted even though it was still mid-January at the entrance of Dandelli Hill, famous for its top-notch grapes, probably because the sunlight was good.
Thanks to this, the bushes and bushes that covered the entire hill were exposed as they were.
If you forcefully drive your horse in, you can’t get in, but the horsemen who can’t speed up are just a big target. Eventually we tied our horses at the foot of the hill and entered the forest on foot.
“Wolves are coming!”
Less than 5 minutes after stepping into the forest, the wolves started attacking. Seeing how fast they reacted, they seemed to be on alert when they saw the torches lined up around the forest.
The wolves didn’t bark or growl. It was just flying like a shotgun.
“Kill them all!”
At the mercenary leader Jaquel’s shout, the 30 or so mercenaries threw down their torches and screamed. Looking at the form of wielding a weapon, it seemed that they were not incompetent, but the situation of the opponent was bad.
At first glance, the number of wolves attacking seemed to exceed 780.
In addition, there were not one or two guys as big as tigers, which made it colorless to expect that only the head would be a dire wolf. It seems that they are hybrids with Direwolf blood mixed in.
swish
A large wolf fell silently from an ash tree and chewed on a mercenary’s head.
“Turn off!”
The mercenary swung his sword, rubbing his swollen eyes. Despite his desperate struggle, only scratches remained on his thick leather. The wolf shook its jaws violently, and the hapless mercenary collapsed, breaking his neck.
“stomach! Watch your stomach!”
“What crazy wolf cubs are climbing trees!”
Among the mercenaries who were taken aback by the unexpected attack, Jackel screamed.
“Such an X-arm window! Stab it with a spear!”
At that shout, mercenaries with boar-hunting spears jumped out and shouted at the wolves.
The spear with protrusions like wings under the heavy spear blade stopped the wolf’s charge at once.
Kreung!
However, the wolves struggled ferociously, scattering yellow eyes even with spear blades stuck in their bodies.
“Ughhhh!”
The mercenary, whose leg was bitten while struggling, screamed in agony as his shin and foot bones were crushed.
The wolf, with three spears stuck in its body, bent its waist with its legs firmly bitten.
The mercenary, who was thrown to the other side, hit his temple against a stone and trembled.
While the angry donkey mercenaries were struggling, the veteran Confearer quickly surveyed the terrain.
“Get behind the trees and come together!”
At that shout, the warriors under my command quickly gathered.
“Sigh!”
The straight and fast spear pierced the wolf’s side with one stroke.
It was the skill of McCaig, a man who was considered the most outstanding among the newly joined mercenaries at Seteniora Monastery. Having hunted greenskins in the Great Mountains, spearsmanship was not common.
“H-Come on!”
The heavy soldier Dervish kicked away the wolf whose stomach was ripped open and spilled out its entrails, then raised a war ax with a blue light.
Paperweight!
As thunderbolts flashed in the ‘Blue Lightning’, Dervish pulled the hilt as it was. A sledgehammer swung the ax and grazed the two wolves. The wound was so shallow that I thought I could get half a finger into it, but
I woke up!
Shocked by the magic electricity, the two wolves chewed on foam and flipped their stomachs.
Dervish, who felt his mana quickly dissipate, quickly hooked the blue thunder into the inside of his shield and drew a curved sword to finish off the two.
“I go through this dog-gone!”
Fritz with a ponytail wearing dark red body armor let out a sharp shout. After that, he tore the jaws of the wolf up and down.
Kkeek Kke-
Kwaduk!
As the wolf drooped down with its jaw bent and its spine broken, Fritz quickly picked up an iron flail and swung it in all directions. Every time the heavy steel ball cuts through the wind! The wolves rolled on the floor with a cheerful sound.
“Hoo-wook-hu.”
Next to him, Night Watchman Dylan was wielding a battle hammer called ‘War Pick’ that resembled a pickaxe.
The sharp and heavy projections shattered the wolf’s skull and ripped through the brain.
“Whoa whoa—”
Dylan was usually extremely reticent, but that was no different during combat. With his calm eyes and slightly open mouth, he calmly breathed and mechanically moved his battle hammer and shield.
Around a small chestnut tree, conjurer McKayg Dervish Fritz Dillon created a space, and the crossbowman Gidon Sixson Mitelman poacher Cavas fired an arrow at ease.
As usual, Gidon murmured prayers, turned the hoist, and aimed the crossbow. Because of the tremendous tension, the crossbow was fired with a sound closer to ‘pop’ than ‘tung’
!
It couldn’t penetrate the big wolves and nailed it to a tree like a stuffed insect.
Six-handed Mittelman looked overhead, holding a torch in one hand and a crossbow in the other. Then, when a wolf climbed a nearby tree and came over to the chestnut tree on this side, he shot a crossbow.
Cavas continued to draw the shortbow while making a stupid sound like ‘Ahhhhh’.
Its bow was powerful for a shortbow, but not enough to kill the thick-skinned monstrous wolves.
But luckily, if an arrow got stuck in my shoulder or hip, I had no choice but to limp, and it was very easy for my own soldiers to finish off such guys.
I don’t know about youngsters like Mitelman or Cavas, but the rest were all warriors who served more than one serving, so there was no concern that they would be attacked by wolves from the beginning.
So my concern wasn’t the subordinates.
Wake up. Even though it was cut cleanly below the waist, the wolf continued to wriggle.
“Sueuuuuuu.”
I inhaled and exhaled deeply.
The fragrance that flowed into the nose soaked the brain and lungs to the fullest, then escaped back through the mouth. The flavor is so rich that it lingers on the tip of your tongue.
He kicked the wolf forward as it stuttered with its front paws. It was a light action, but the wolf, cut in half, flew seven to eight meters, scattering its entrails.
and explode. Blood shards
caused
by the bang of blood tore everywhere.
A beautiful chestnut tree close to the heart of the explosion broke and made a loud croaking sound, and the wolves lurking nearby collapsed with their whole bodies covered in rags.
Kyaaeae- I
looked back, satisfied with the scene that seemed like a mortar shell had landed.
Count Osse was trembling while holding a magical sword with a purple glow on the blade. It looked like he wouldn’t be able to escape, let alone wield a knife, but that didn’t mean he was in danger.
The golden age knights led by Marquis Eabon were exceptionally outstanding among the knights. Um, so to speak, it means that it is a war machine that is backwards.
Kr Leung.
Even though more than half of their kin died, the bull-sized wolves did not kill their spirit, except for the ferocious light dripping from their eyes.
Despite their very menacing appearance, the knights standing in the four directions of Osu had two-handed swords slung over their shoulders with expressionless faces.
At that time, three wolves attacked at once, aiming for a corner of the escort formation. It was a deadly pincer attack, one aiming for the leg, the other for the arm, and the last for the neck.
However, the knight who faced the pincer attack was not much agitated. Instead of backing down, he took a step forward with his front foot and swung his two-handed sword like lightning.
enemy! Along with the flashing sword, the three wolves, who were aiming at different places at different timings, fell at the same time, sprinkling blood.
After demonstrating unrealistic skills, the knight wiped the blood off the sword and returned to its initial position.
“Hmm.”
That’s great. It seems to be one level higher than ‘Beautiful Esselda’, a middle-aged female knight from Longville.
If it was a knight of that level, it would be possible to use blood-sculpting to the limit… and deal with about ten people? No, it seems a little difficult.
…for a moment. So you’re saying that the Marquis of Eabon has 80 monsters like that?
I’m not saying anything crazy.
In fact, I was suspicious of what the heck was going on with Count Osse’s escorts as they kept pushing him into dangerous places. I wondered if the Marquis of Eabon had hinted something to his subordinates in order to get rid of the weak heir.
However, looking at the articles attached as escorts, it seems that this is not the case. Skills are also skills, but anyway, aren’t they guarding the young count fiercely?
And Raf, a monster battle wizard who wrapped his whole body in bandages and pulled down his cape, was also showing off his skills when the wolves started attacking.
Glancing at the wolves lurking in the shadows of the forest, he took something out of his bosom and held it with both hands.
“At-sh daridaak zutka.”
He cast an incantation in a grotesque voice and breathed into something he was holding in his hand. You can feel the mana flowing through your breath.
What was in his hand was a pair of worms. An insect the size of a finger with a bizarre appearance that looks like a mix of half a beetle and half a praying mantis.
The very moment Raf breathed into it. A flash of light flashed, revealing a pair of bugs that had grown to the size of a two-story building.
Exactly!
Giant bugs with the torso of a beetle and the forelimbs and heads of a praying mantis clashed with their claw-like jaws and made a threatening sound.
Then, it flicked its hind legs and flapped its wings at the same time, striking the wolves like a shotgun.
Chee Hee!
The sound of the creepy wings is ghastly and disgusting.
The wolves seemed to have had a similar sentiment and tried to back down, surprised by the appearance of monsters out of nowhere, but the insects were incredibly fast. Wolves were snagged on their scythe-like forepaws, crushed in pieces, or crushed by their jaws. The two giant worms lost their magical power
and scattered into dust
only after slaughtering more than twenty wolves .
As the wolves, who suffered massive damage, rolled their tails and ran away, Ute Kwai, clutching a dark mace in his steel gauntlets, was showing a dissatisfied expression for some reason.
“What is it, why is your face chewing shit?”
“All of them are small, but there is no leader.”
I couldn’t turn the forest into a sea of fire, so I left the ‘Felfire Whip’ behind. So Utequai swung the ‘Hand of Mammon’ and burst the wolves one by one.
“They’re all guys who can’t burn the Great Warrior. It’s like a foal.”
“I will be a colt, not a horse. Wait a minute. Bunch will come soon.”
“O uh ” — “5“.
After finishing the battle, he was roughly rectifying the situation, but a bunch finally appeared.
“trunnion!”
“How are you? Good job.”
The action of jumping out of the shadow is so agile that it is difficult to know whether it came from below or from above. Instead of participating in the battle, the group that came from scouting the forest roughly brushed off leaves and dust from the cape and pointed into the forest.
“There is an ambush 500 steps ahead. The Alpha Wolf is hunting beyond. Hurry up.”
“Hurry? why’?”
“The hunt will be over soon.”
“The hunt is over? Are you saying that unicorns are being hunted?”
Moongchi, who continued talking urgently, tilted his head with a thoughtful expression saying ‘Umm’.
“I don’t know if it’s a unicorn, but your wolves are successful in hunting.”
“O uh”
The ambush bothers me, but time is running out. It’s a tricky situation.
Judgment was made quickly.
Since the location of the wolf leader and the unicorn or the unicorn had been identified, the mercenary leader Jaquel decided to tighten the siege outside the forest into the forest.
I took the rest of the crew and headed for the ambush. We didn’t know why some guys were hiding, so we left our men and Earl Oth’s party behind for a while, leaving only Utequai to step forward.
“…About this.”
The ambush pointed out by Mungchi is right in front of you, but you can’t feel it. All you see is a thick bush.
I just felt the air getting thicker. This suspense or death was proof that someone was pointing a knife at me.
“Nothing to worry about.”
” huh?”
Leaving behind me, who had been standing there in thought for a moment, Utequai took three or four steps forward.
“Stop acting like a rat and come out. ”
His voice is so good that even though he speaks in a soft tone, the surroundings resonate. As if he was taken aback by that, the whole bush swayed flutteringly.
“Come on!”
Kung! Utequai stamped his feet around the gray wind. The floor shakes like the surface of a drum or gong.
Self
——————Sweet .
The shaking of the bush became more intense and soon it was clear! The thin film covering the eyes shattered with a sound.
“What is it? Why is this?”
“Is my illusion broken just because I screamed something crazy?”
A little less than a hundred soldiers emerged from a complex tangle of trees and bushes.
…I didn’t expect there to be so many?
The unidentified soldiers, who were hiding with some kind of magic, appeared to have painted their bodies with soil, perhaps to cover up their body odor.
At first glance, it looked shabby, but upon closer inspection, it was equipped with quite sturdy armament, such as a plate breastplate over chain mail and a plate-shaped iron helmet.
In addition, the placenta among the dogs was holding a crossbow with a winch. A heavy crossbow that can pierce through any decent armor similar to the one Gidon uses.
That wouldn’t be something worth a penny or two…. What the hell are these bastards?
“Stop talking embarrassingly and shut up, you assholes.”
Surprisingly, it was the voice of a young boy who instantly calmed the panicked soldiers.
I was startled by the youthful voice and turned around to see a short 140cm tall boy walking out from among the thick bushes and soldiers.
“…My dear, how much does this cost?”
What is this choding?
Wearing leather clothes instead of heavy armor, Jammin was covered in dirt all over his body like other soldiers.
It was the same that his face was also covered in dirt, but his features were uncharacteristically distinct, revealing his fine features and facial expressions worn by the hair.
“What are you guys? What are you interfering with other people’s business?”
“…business?”
“Yes business. Can’t you see us? I’ve been fucking so damn hard for the past few days, and I’ve been on the verge of success.” The rough-mouthed elementary school student brought out a small crossbow suitable for his size and took turns aiming at Ute Quai.
“At a glance, you are a pilgrim knight, and this side is a barbarian.”
“What about you?”
I looked at the soldiers again and added a question.
“For thieves, they have good equipment. Are you a mercenary? Or a deserter?”
“…under. Hey knight man. I’m sorry, but you don’t have a say.”
“Oh yeah? why?”
“Can’t you see this?”
Unidentified Jammin tapped the crossbow and smiled.
“With one word from me, both of them will become needle holders.”
As if responding to his words, soldiers with crossbows came out all at once and aimed at Utequai.
“Looking at me, trusting in the humble plate armor, don’t you think the lives of my comrades are precious? Is it because he is a savage?” At that elated look, a smile comes out of me without my knowledge.
“I’m saying it because you don’t know, but if you shoot that guy over there, it’s much safer than me, right?”
“The tattoo on that man’s shoulder is gone.”
I shrugged and looked back at the soldiers lined up behind the boy.
“Boss come out. Don’t be mean and put a kid with no hair on his dick.”
After a moment of silence, some soldiers burst into laughter.
“…what? What kind of kid are you?”
When Jammin growled cutely, the soldiers who could not hold back their laughter quickly covered their mouths. The boy glared at them in turn, then returned to me.
“A knight doesn’t have much of an eye for it. I am the boss here.”
“Oh yeah? Seeing that you are the boss, you must be a thief, right?”
“Damn it, that is wrong. It’s all wrong!” The elementary school student, who had a temper, pointed at the crossbow and spoke in a clear voice.
“My name is Rujan Alderson of Earth Banner. He is the owner of Cheddar Castle and the lord of Delhi Road.”
“……uh?”
lord? Is this Jammin?
“Clarify your name, you arrogant and suspicious wanderer.”
I opened my mouth in a daze and looked back at Utequai who was next to me. Then he made eye contact with me and burst into laughter.
“Hahaha! What are you doing Phoenix! Hurry up and bow down!”
You idiot, is this funny?
