The dark red blood floated in the air, turning into spiral streams that followed the trajectory of the giant sword and were absorbed by it one by one. Then the sword body became darker and deeper.
The strong smell of blood filled the battlefield, and the sharp aura spread, shocking the soldiers on both sides.
Seeing the enemy slaughtering their own army, six high-ranking unicorn knights rushed out from the Landsworthy family's army. They rode silver-maned unicorns of Natural Sequence 6, covered in silver-white knight armor, with white and blue feathers on the top of their helmets, and the lances in their hands were also in the shape of spiral sharp corners, just like the horns of a unicorn.
As the six high-level unicorn knights charged, the silver-maned unicorns beneath them sped up faster and faster, and the long silver horns on their heads shone with dazzling brilliance. As they approached, the mana on the battlefield was cleared, and the originally overflowing demon sequence magic was also dispelled, making the opponent's black-clothed swordsman slightly weaker.
In the rapid charge, the spiral lance stabbed towards the black-clad swordsman, but the opponent dodged it sideways and did not achieve any results. Then another knight charged, and after three exchanges, the black-clad swordsman was finally half a step slower and was hit by the stabbing lance. Unable to avoid it, he could only swing his sword to cut it down.
"Ding, sizzle—"
With the metallic vibration of the collision, the tip of the spear drew a spark and a fine scratch on the sword body. Then, taking advantage of this brief flaw, the fifth Unicorn Knight pierced the black-clad swordsman's right shoulder with a spear, almost tearing the arm off.
While suffering a heavy blow, the black-clad swordsman also caught his breath. When facing the last unicorn knight, he stretched out his left hand and grasped the spiral lance wrapped in surging white flames.
The spiral of the lance brought up a lot of green smoke in his palm, emitting an unpleasant burnt smell, and the tip of the lance even penetrated into the arm bone at the wrist. Despite this, Lindberg still stopped the lance, then grasped the sword again in his right hand, and slashed down with the black giant sword, directly cutting off the upper body of the unicorn knight in front of him, which was extremely brutal.
"Hu, hu..." He breathed heavily, stood up again holding the giant sword, and the wound on his right shoulder was healing rapidly.
Next, the five high-level unicorn knights charged again, but this time Lindbergh had experience in dealing with it, and the five could no longer gain the upper hand, and even became precarious.
Seeing another high-ranking knight being knocked off the unicorn, the Landsworthy family released a large number of floating blue-white flames, which rushed towards Lindberg and temporarily repelled him.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the high-level Unicorn Knights of the Landsworthy family were able to return.
"Do you need us to go on stage, Your Highness?" A figure wearing blue and white knight armor stepped forward beside Xu Lier, and behind him were many knights wearing the same armor.
These people are none other than the elites directly under the Landsworthy family, the Unicorn Knights. The six who had appeared on the field before were only six of the team leaders.
Although the knight commander beside him requested to go into battle, Hullier did not agree immediately. He slowly scanned the opposite army formation with a telescope, and his expression became a little heavy.
"No, let's retreat and have the mages in the back prepare to cast spells to provide cover."
"Yes, Your Highness."
With the enemy's strength unknown and the number of hidden transcendents far outnumbering his own, Hullier wasn't prepared to take any risks. He decided to retreat and await reinforcements from his clan. This rescue mission had been hastily dispatched, so he had only a limited force with him. Many of his clan's forces hadn't yet been mobilized, and they were far inferior to the well-prepared noble coalition.
"Oh, are you leaving now?"
Behind the Eastern Alliance, a petite girl stood on a carriage, gazing at the bluish-white meteorite fire falling from the distant sky, scorching the battlefield and causing a puff of white smoke to float, while the Landsworthy army slowly retreated.
"If it were me, I would definitely send people to catch up regardless of the consequences, rush over, and wipe out these Landsworth troops in one breath." She muttered, but she also knew that this was unrealistic.
The relationship among the noble coalition forces is rather complicated. No one is willing to make huge sacrifices and advance in the face of the blue-white meteorite fire that fell from the sky. They can only wait for the flames to gradually dissipate.
After the first battle, the Landsworth family's reinforcements to New Rose Castle in the west were blocked, and a letter requesting support was quickly sent from Hullier to the family's headquarters in the rear.
Soon after, reinforcements arrived from behind the clan, and Frosia was among them.
In the lush green forest, human figures swayed, and deer hooves lightly jumped over the grass and dead leaves in the forest. They moved quickly, making only a small amount of sound, and were extremely fast.
On the backs of these long-horned reindeer were cavalrymen wearing dark green cloaks. They deftly controlled these natural sequence 4 reindeer beneath them, quickly scouting the area, memorizing the terrain and enemy distribution, and then bringing them back to the rear.
After determining and understanding the layout of the enemy camp, they quickly took action.
Near dusk, these warriors riding reindeer arrived not far from the enemy camp, and then shot flaming arrows into the patrolling camp, setting the tents and piles of supplies on fire. The flames quickly spread and the scene began to become chaotic.
The officers cried out that the enemy was attacking, and on the one hand they were thinking about responding to the enemy, but on the other hand they had to put out the fire as quickly as possible to prevent the supplies from being burned.
In this hasty process, another rain of arrows fell, taking away a large number of soldiers with poor defense. Even if the noble coalition forces wanted to chase, they could not outrun the swift reindeer in the forest.
"No need to chase them. They are Reinde's reindeer cavalry. We can't catch up with them." After seeing the figure in the dark, an officer called back the soldiers in the camp.
