The Blood Knight’s Villains - Chapter 442

My Villains Episode 442

65. The Climax of Spring (17)

Seongbaek Hopeken collapsed in vain with his eyes wide open in astonishment. The imperial knights who spread the siege and the heads of the electoral army, including the Duke of Avillamber and the Prince of Savellard, were unexpected.

However, the army was too overwhelming to shrink in fear or recall defeat when a single commander died.

“Kill the enemy knight!”

The imperial knights spurred on the roaring cry of an aristocratic knight dressed in armor.

The riders on horseback smoked dust and fired arrows at the enemy knights instead of charging head-on.

It wasn’t just the bow and crossbow. There were many people who turned hooks made of tough ropes or chains to try and grab leather nets.

“There is no such thing as crazy people.”

Phoenix, who even cut down the last swordsman, quickly raised his blood. The anti-magic field that suppressed him disappeared along with the old swordsman’s life, so he was free to use his magic.

Chara Larak.

Dark red scales that rose from the tip of the left hand covered the back of the hand and the vaccinia in an instant. While the ‘iron-blooded armor’ was spreading, a small disc sprouted from the red knight’s forearm.

Tsutsutsu.

The blood of Hopeken and his disciples

flowed back into the air and adhered to the disc.

The dark red disc rapidly grew in size, and by the time the arrows shot by the imperial knights from the mount reached it, it had grown to the size of a decent round shield.

“I-!”

While Phoenix blocked the arrows with the ‘Blood Shield’, about 20 of the imperial knights who were drawing circles with dust came out. Then, all at once, they threw the hooks that were spinning over their heads.

It would be easy to respond with blood surge or blood wind, but I couldn’t turn my blood because I was in the middle of deploying iron blood armor and blood shield. I had to hit the body.

“Suck”

Kakang!

The red knight threw his body to the side while swinging his sword to cut off the hooks. He instinctively twisted his shoulders as he rolled on the ground, and the barrage of arrows aiming for a gap ricocheted off his dark red scales or shoulder blades.

While the Imperial Knights retrieved the hooks and Phoenix was saving blood, a battle wizard fired a spell among Strom’s soldiers who had approached the riverside before they knew it.

“Jaun—lacus! Yispelilo!”

A shockwave exploded from the tip of the slender wand. A shapeless mass of magic power shook the air and flew in, attacking Phoenix.

Dooung.

“Keuu”

“Resolve” It was a spell commonly called dispel.

When the active blood energy stopped, the red knight stumbled briefly, and the products of the blood manipulation that covered him turned into bloody water and poured out.

Dissolving is a one-time spell, so a few breaths should be enough to get out of the aftermath.

However, the Imperial Knights did not miss the opportunity. I quickly pulled the string and threw the hook.

Wedge liquid!

An arrow shot straight from a distance of only 340 meters with a high-strength bow that could not even be drawn by a tolerable lengthy person showed terrifying power.

Every time it hit the plate armor and made a light metal sound, the steel plate was about to warp.

“Ahhhh-””

Phoenix

, who was avoiding and protecting vital points, swallowed curses at the arrowhead that dug right under the elbow.

Six or seven hooks were wrapped around his limbs as he flinched at the dull shock that hit his whole body and the intense pain that radiated from his arms.

“Let go, you bastards!”

The red knight struggled wildly.

“Eh”

“Ughhh!”

With a force comparable to that of a tolerable giant, those who pulled the hook rolled along the ground with the war horses.

Seeing the scene, the other Imperial Knights quickly lined up or maintained their balance by displaying agile horsemanship.

“Right arm! Aim for the right arm!”

At the command of the aristocratic knight aiming his spear, he aimed for the right arm of the enemy knight, and arrows were continuously pierced and the hook entwined intricately.

Pudeudeudeuk-

“Kkeuugh!”

Nine supermen riding on a large warhorse dragged their arms, which were pierced by four or five feet, with long arrows.

Vambraces were terribly crumpled by the sharp hook, and the skin, which was tougher than cowhide, was torn or pierced. Phoenix did not miss the knife until the end, but lost his balance and fell backwards.

No matter how strong he was, he couldn’t use his strength without stepping on the ground, so the red knight struggled desperately and was dragged by nine ropes and chains.

“Now is the net!”

Four or five Imperial Knights, who were looking for an opportunity among those holding the hooks, flashed their eyes through the gaps in their helmets. Then, with the skill of a skilled fisherman, he threw a net and covered Phoenix.

“Damn-”

It was as light as an ordinary net, but extremely strong. It was also a monster made from the products of all kinds of monsters, including Wyvern’s hide and troll’s sinew.

With four or five layers of such things wrapped around it, it was only natural that even an Amman red knight would be unable to move.

As if the hooks and nets weren’t enough, the saboteurs who were enraged at the death of the master hurled white pillars of light.

Phoenix, who was floundering under the net with his right arm tied, was hit all over by the ‘spear of power’ baptism as if he were a horse.

Kwagwagwang!

“Ugh.”

Lumps of light hit the exposed face, chest, thighs, etc. in succession. The nose bone and cheekbones collapsed on the face, making it bloody in an instant. The warped breastplate finally cracked, and two ribs as hard as iron bars were broken.

“Turn it off.”

The red knight is definitely a knight per hundred or per thousand. However, it was impossible to defeat the elite troops of the continent’s highest level of power against the beheading unit prepared with only the enemy knights in mind.

oh oh oh!

When Oghshlizo, who assumed a gigantic form, tried to help him, the actions taken by Captain Buakan, the commander and henchman of Duke Avillambus, came to light. The magic soldiers who had been recruited from Alzenberg’s 400 magic troops and marched forward unnoticed poured out spells all at once.

More than thirty balls emitting blue cold air flew into the air.

‘Ice Sphere’ was not a very high-level spell, but there were so many of them that the giant floating in the air shrank rapidly.

No matter how Oggshlizo was, mana was dry and he couldn’t take a break in time, so he eventually crashed like a deflated balloon.

“Cavalry charge! Trample them all!”

The aristocratic knight who was serving as the vanguard raised his spear high with the momentum to pierce the moon.

The cavalrymen who had been waiting between the ranks of infantry without even turning on their fires shouted in unison and rushed to the riverside. The beheading unit, all made up of imperial knights, rushed at the enemy knights as if to finish their mission. After throwing down the bow and crossbow, the figure of pulling out a mace or an ax with a long handle was hideous.

“Ugh- fuck.”

Phoenix finally tried to stand up with his stable blood, but the five-layered net was still tough and his right arm was tightly tied. There was no way to stop the rushing knights.

At that time, the hidden card showed up after losing patience with the Red Knight’s crisis.

As if to catch a general, you have to shoot the horse first, so the bicorn was hopping on the riverside trying to avoid the barrage of arrows.

Something protruded from the shadow cast by the beast under the moonlight.

It was a black person.

The outlines were blurry and unclear, as if miscellaneous shapes overlapped. Only thin armor that clung to the body without luster or a white mask with a fluttering mane was vaguely visible.

Among the imperial knights who rushed at it with a shape that seemed to melt into the darkness, only three or four with exceptionally bright eyes were able to spot the human figure appearing by the riverside.

“That one?”

Before they could react, the human spirit kicked the ground. After jumping more than 3 meters like that, I bent my back in the air.

and scream.

“Damn, what is this again-”

A sharp sound like a metal sound made by In-young through the ‘Howling Mask’ spread all over the place.

At the sound waves that pierced the eardrums deeply, the imperial soldiers wrinkled their faces and plugged their ears, and the troopers vomited as their vestibular organs shook. But it was not the riders who reacted the most, but the horses they rode.

Hee hee hee-

“This guy is calming down!”

“Aaaah, avoid it!”

It was quite common for the horses to startle or suddenly turn around, and it was common for the horses to hit their heads on the ground while running.

The jockeys who followed couldn’t beat the speed, so they were entangled with the fallen horses, creating a mess everywhere.

While the 600 imperial knights and cavalrymen stopped for a moment, the screaming figure ran toward the enemy knight.

“You are a black whore!”

The aristocratic knight, who had barely calmed down the battle horse, charged at the assassin known as In-young – the so-called ‘Black Woman’.

Four black eyes flashed in the white mask, and three daggers resembling awl fired like beams of light. Two of them were blocked by the splendidly decorated helmet, but one was precisely lodged in the eye socket of the faceplate.

“Keep it off!”

The neck of the noble knight with the dagger stuck in his eye bent as if it would break. However, he gnashed his teeth with a determination worthy of a vanguard, and he fixed his spear while bleeding profusely under his helmet.

W Uh Ha

■才、9

Rannon quickly rolled to the ground to avoid the charge.

However, the aristocratic knight stained her one remaining eye red, broke the spear, and pierced her side with the tip of the spear.

No, it looked like it was screwed in.

The woman in black momentarily cut off the magical power that had flowed into the ornaments she wore around her neck, and when the ‘blur’ spell ended, the afterimage was shot forward silently by the man’s ‘cow (?)’ method.

“Something like this prostitute-”

After deflecting the noble knight with a simple trick, Rannon jumped at the struggling red knight and pulled out his shortsword.

no, it wasn’t a sword. It was an ancient sword ‘Geo-gul’ that was cut in half.

A sharp blade that could cut sheet metal like butter flashed four times in an instant.

The chains and ropes wrapped around Phoenix’s right arm, as well as the five layers of nets, were torn apart at once.

“trunnion.”

“Mungchi, keke-”

The red knight, supported by the masked assassin, stood up. Without even time to catch his breath, he reached out his hand toward the noble knight who was charging at him with a spear pointed at him.

bang!

The brave vanguard fell from his horse with red paste spilling down his helmet.

“Oh, no-!”

“Lord!”

As he fell, the imperial knights who made up the beheading unit opened their mouths in astonishment.

“My lord has fallen!”

“Protect Your Excellency!”

“First, take care of the enemy knights!

“Revenge!”

Several imperial knights rushed to the fallen vanguard, or ‘Picord Prince’, and poured expensive magic potion on the head where the top of the nose was completely blown off.

The rest pounced on the red knight and the black woman with their eyes wide open.

“Fuck— Hey!”

Lee Gak-soo came running like the wind at Phoenix’s urgent shout.

While running toward the bicorn with the support of the black woman, the red knight continued to use magic power.

The ‘boiling blood’ full of blood flowed fiercely through the whole body and repaired the wound. Thanks to this, his condition improved enough to run alone in just a couple of breaths.

Right before being stepped on by the hooves of the enraged knights, Phoenix rode the bicorn and swung the black ice around like a thunderbolt.

Pacan!

A beam of light aiming for the back of his head bounced off with a loud sound and crushed the chest of an imperial knight.

Rannon, who had been carried into Phoenix’s arms, asked a question.

“Operation Poi.”

“It’s open.”

Saying so, the red knight looked back.

A soft shockwave exploded somewhere behind enemy lines. In preparation for an assassin’s attack, the ‘detection’ spell was being sprayed.

“Is that the headquarters…

” “It’s close.”

“Dangerous. Even now, it’s tidy, but if you disappear from sight, I’ll start searching like a tooth.”

Without any regrets from Phoenix, he gave the reins and the bicorn, which instantly distanced itself from the imperial knights, jumped and crossed the river.

My plan wasn’t like this.

Once infiltrating the bundle into the enemy camp and ‘fairy tale’ to her, Iofya, who shared her sight, was planning to assassinate or steal the leash if she found ‘the one holding the leash of the slaves’.

By the way…

“It’s completely overcooked.”

I tossed out the bottle of potion I had emptied, then touched and gnashed my teeth at the nose and cheekbones that had been restored to their proper places.

I thought I could see a way out by catching the Hopeken Seongbaek much easier than expected, but I was robbed by imperial knights led by a bastard called ‘Princess Prince’.

Guys who were knights at a time behaved meanly like bandits or mercenaries, so I couldn’t stand them alone.

“Fight to the end!”

It was Lord Langbolt’s voice.

He drew all the cavalry power he had kept until the end inside the defensive line and charged the enemy face-to-face.

It was impossible to stand up to more than 600 enemy cavalry because the number of them was only about 50, but Sir Lang Bolt and a small number of knights put up an unbelievable struggle.

“Gwa-gwa, are you okay?”

Iofya, a girl in a poncho, asked with a pale face.

Iofiya, who shared a sense with Mungchi, passed out for a while due to his frantic movements, but when I returned with my body in a mess, I managed to regain my senses and spread the magic of healing.

“I’m not okay, but I can’t help it. Haven’t you found the owner of the leash yet?” The girl nodded with a dark face.

“It’s so entangled in chains that I can’t really find it.”

“…First, take a good look through the bundle. Because that is our last hope.”

There was no time for leisurely conversation. The enemies had already surrounded Sir Langbolt and rushed to the defense line.

After having Iofiya join Count Ines and the others preparing to escape, I rode the bicorn and ran forward.

“Light the fire! hurry!” At Staff Fogan’s shouts, the soldiers who stayed until the end threw torches, and fire soared from the oil-soaked piles of wooden fences and dirt.

“Fuck…stop it!”

The soldiers who had been prostrating at my harsh shouts all stood up and pushed out their spears. The cavalrymen who jumped over the flames crushed the friendly soldiers and entangled them as if they were one body.

The bitter struggle began.

Half of the 150 or so rebels led by Sergeant Gotthrop fled as soon as the enemy cavalry charged.

The rest of them seemed to want to let go of their weapons, but when I swung a bloody blade and slashed the horse and rider to pieces seven times in a row, they forced themselves to swing their weapons.

Milgrester’s privates faced the enemy with the spirit of an elite soldier, and immediately after contact with the cavalry, they paid a rather good exchange rate.

The archers, who showed excellent skills, also showed bravery comparable to that of any other heavy armor, even though they only had a small ax or a sword when they ran out of arrows.

The mercenaries mixed in between them also fought without retreating. He did not know whether he believed Count Ines’ promise of a great reward for his family, or whether he was acting with all the sincerity of a professional mercenary. However, he stayed until the end until he was injured.

The seamen of Earl Shore kept their place even when their limbs fell off. In front of them, their idols slashed the enemies, and whenever they burst into cheerful shouts, they responded with screams and hurled spears resembling harpoons. If only the ‘roaring waves’ did not stop, they would not stop fighting either.

However, among the dogs, it was the Nudein who fought the most valiantly. The Hareskis, who drank ‘special tea’ and surrendered themselves to fanaticism, dealt with three or four imperial knights alone. Ordinary warriors also brandished their weapons while chanting, “What about Napidat?” as if in chorus.

To repel the cavalry after all that struggle was, in a word, a miracle.

However, as if the Elector Counts had no intention of ending the battle with this miracle, they immediately pushed in Strom’s soldiers and slave corps.

Shit.” Even though there were many enemies, there were too many.

Thousands of people swayed beyond the barrier of flame that had been spread instead of the collapsed wooden fence and mound.

While the imperial knights were chasing and chasing the mixed cavalry, the allied soldiers were staring at the enemy with exhausted or blank eyes.

It was then. The wall of flame spread out in front of me turned red.

Roaring!

A shadow shone in the high flames. Then, when the scarlet flames faded a little, there was a figure standing there.

The old mage Oghshlizo, who was sitting on a nearby rock to catch his breath, murmured with his mouth slightly open.

“’Descent from the Crimson Flame’… can’t it?”

The soldiers around me shouted something as they saw the wizard emerging from the flames, but I couldn’t hear anything.

“……uh?” While I was making a foolish expression, a wizard clad in flames like a cloak stepped down through the air like stairs.

“Uh huh?”

Her voluminous blonde hair sparkled and her sea-blue eyes shone mysteriously. The young woman smiled lightly against the backdrop of a burning battlefield.

“long time no see.”

At Ellen’s greeting, I was dumbfounded and only blinked my eyes.
