The wolf riders, like a sharp blade emerging from the shadows, seized the opportunity presented by the Fox King's wave of his hand that unleashed several meteorites, and stepped into the Earl's territory.
Count Shap's armed forces consisted of only this elite knightly order, and after the battle in the wasteland, only about three hundred men successfully withdrew.
As for the high-level combat forces, they were held back by Xiao Han's wave after wave of meteors, focusing all their efforts on defense and having no time to deal with the invading wolf cavalry!
This caused the knights, who were already terrified of wolves, to flee in disarray. The enemy, like a demon in a raging inferno, easily bit through their throats and slaughtered them all!
"Fight back! We must fight back! For the glory of the Duchy's knights!"
Chaos erupted in the crowd. Many people fell to the ground in their panicked escape and were trampled to death by the frightened warhorses.
Even when knights drew their weapons to resist, the skilled wolf riders hurled spears that pierced through their flesh and blood, which were protected by a layer of iron.
The equipment left behind by the defeated knights was naturally fitted to the wolf riders: armor-piercing spears, brand-new armor, and knightly swords that shone with the brilliance of their status. Unfortunately, the warhorses were fierce and unwilling to submit. In addition, the wolf pack was twice the size of the fifty men brought from Titan City. On Hruf's advice, all the captured warhorses were killed and made into roasted horse meat to feed the wolf pack.
Such a kind act moved the wolf clan to tears of gratitude, causing their favorability towards the count's family to skyrocket, and they frantically shouted that they should bury the count's family in the ground and plant grapevines.
Damn it, when the wolf king was in power, the wolf clan would plunder all the good food and drink to offer up. Even eating wild grapes required several beautiful female wolves to accompany him, and they would even wash them clean with their saliva... and feed them mouth to mouth!
"call out!"
Leading this unstoppable pack of wolves, charging at the forefront of the blades, was a lithe, dark figure—Blood Raven, hailed as the number one assassin in Titan City.
He rode a shadow wolf, disappearing into the shadows, and conjured several shadow clones to carry out assassinations. Like the shadow of death, wherever he went, he used assassination techniques such as throat slitting, backstabbing, and bone-slicing to completely silence his targets.
In addition, he can also transform into crossbowman mode. With the light crossbow soul armor that has been with him for more than ten years, sniping strongmen who are two or three levels higher than him is no problem at all!
After a round of fighting, the spear he threw and retrieved, and the four daggers at his waist were all stained with blood.
Under his command, the wolf riders were divided into three groups of about a dozen men each, leading more than thirty giant wolves. They blocked the enemy's retreat and charged towards the cavalry regiment that had collapsed without a fight, forcing the enemy to regroup. Then they concentrated their attacks by throwing spears and firing crossbow bolts, causing a massacre.
Although the officers of the Knights tried to organize themselves and fight back against the cunning wolf riders, the earlier divinely wrathful meteor had already left a shocking impression on them, with its roaring flames sweeping across the land and engulfing both men and horses.
Now, a similar scene is playing out again. Xiao Han, whose mental power has surged, does not need the temple phantom as a mold. He directly kneads the meteorite with demonic flames. Although it does not have the destructive power of the amethyst grape, it is comparable to the mid-level fire blast technique, and its range is as far as a thousand meters.
Therefore, this scene awakened the knight's inner fear, and divine fire swept through, leaving no trace of the body!
Moreover, the officers who organized the knights were specifically targeted by the wolf riders, who swiftly thrust and killed them, leaving the knights with no will to resist. They abandoned their armor and weapons and fled in civilian clothes through the burning streets.
More importantly, news of the defeated knights' return to the city was kept secret. Disguised as mercenaries entering the city, they immediately incurred the Count's wrath and the contempt of some nobles. Ignoring Scarface's pleas, the knights were given the harshest punishment. Meanwhile, the wolf riders, led by the Fox King, lived a life of leisure, freeloading and enjoying themselves on the ashes of various lords… oh, and they even used the ashes to grow vegetables, making them even happier ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Thus, the knights, starving and utterly exhausted, once again faced the fully armed wolf riders and were inevitably routed.
"Awoo~"
Three groups of wolf riders were chasing the knights. To avoid being surrounded, the wolf riders did not need to charge into the knights' ranks. They only needed to attack from a distance while approaching the group from the side, speeding up and charging to cut off the small section of the tail that was exposed. Each time, they could cause damage to dozens of the enemy.
This tactic clearly worked. After several rounds, the Knights suffered more than a hundred casualties, but they were powerless to fight back. They wanted to organize a cavalry counterattack, but the gap in equipment and training was too great. The indirect abandonment by the higher command and the enemy's fierce offensive led them to despair.
Thus, this elite knightly order was slaughtered, their corpses piling up throughout the streets, filling the air with a heavy stench of blood.
This one-sided massacre dealt a heavy blow to morale. Blood Raven noticed that some knights were starting to break formation and flee in other directions, so he raised his crossbow and shot a group of them from a distance.
Above, the skyscraper materialized into a solidified wall of light, engraved with petal-like patterns. Whenever divine fire descended, the skyscraper trembled, the void exploded, and a powerful, scorching aura swept through.
"Ahhh!"
Scarface's eyes were bloodshot. He manipulated the magic circle, shooting out bursts of blazing fire to intercept the enemy's meteor attack halfway. However, he never expected that the invasion of the wolf riders would bring his most prized knightly order to the brink of collapse!
He let out a long roar, unleashing a dazzling holy light from his potential. Enveloped in pale golden battle armor, he cleaved through the void with his long sword, leaping from the high-rise building and cutting through several houses before reaching Blood Raven!
"Awoo?"
The wolf riders clearly sensed the terrifying power of this expert and immediately turned around and fled!
Or rather, their mission is to harass the Earl's high-level combat forces. Without Scar's assistance, the pressure on the high-rise side has increased dramatically.
"call out!"
Blood Raven fired a heavy crossbow bolt, urging his Shadow Wolf to disappear into the shadows and flee quickly.
"die!"
Scarface sneered, shattering the void with a single step. The ripples he created deflected the thrusting crossbow bolts. Amidst the terrified gazes of a pack of wolves who had no time to retreat, the longsword he swung down seemed to detonate a sun, illuminating the earth!
Then, with a clang, the knife shot out. Scarface, empty-handed, remained in the stance of drawing the knife, his resolute face gradually stiffening, radiating loneliness...
Then, the long knife cut across the ground, carving deep furrows, before it shakily got up and ran off with the wolf pack...
"Bang!"
Just as Scarface was bewildered, a deep blue staff fell onto a rooftop, its silver-blue crystal at the top splashing up a handful of frost.
He glanced at it and immediately felt a sense of familiarity.
Then, before Scarface could react, the staff did a somersault on the rooftop, bounced a few times, and then sped away...
Scarface: "..."
Damn prankster god! (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻
