Chapter 178: 176: Earth Dragon Knight (Please subscribe, please vote)
Accidents always happen when you least expect them;
Fate always likes to play jokes on you in the most unique ways.
Just when this battle was about to end, someone else appeared.
Even before seeing the people coming, the shock of thousands of troops galloping towards us was incomparable to the Boar Knights.
Captain Sik withdrew his troops almost immediately, the heavy infantry turned around immediately, the chariot formation continued to be reinforced, and various spears were raised again.
And Loy's team of magic gunners lined up again, loaded bullets, and prepared for battle.
It is worth mentioning that this time, there was not just one magic cannon pushed out, but three smaller ones.
Lilia, Angel and Oliveira are the main gunners respectively.
That’s right, on this trip, Luo Yi brought four magic cannons, which were all he could buy.
The Boar Knights reacted quickly as well. Viscount Evans immediately reorganized the Knights, releasing their fighting spirit and the blood-red halo covered them once again.
If the situation is not right, he is not without the strength to fight again.
However, when he saw the knight running out from the road, his face turned grim, but he put down the warhammer in his hand.
These knights were all wearing blue and white armor, with tall eagle feathers on their helmets, and their weapons were knight swords, round shields and lances.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is their mounts.
The strong and powerful hind legs and the thick and long tail are the only two things that allow the horse to maintain balance so that it can carry a fully armed knight and run long distances.
They also have dark and cold scales with a metallic luster, which give them amazing defensive power at first glance.
The head is like a crocodile, and the mouth full of fangs represents an amazing bite force.
Its unique feature is that its forelimbs are too short, but its sharp claws are several inches long and can tear cracks even in iron armor.
This is Warcraft, the Earth Dragon!
As we all know, dragons are seed-bearers, and any flesh-and-blood creature can give birth to dragon seeds.
Although the blood of this ground dragon is a little thin and it cannot fly, the fact that it has the word "dragon" in its name shows how powerful it is.
In the entire Norman Duchy, the only extraordinary knight order that can be boasted of, or that has left a name in the history of the Old World, is this order of knights that uses 'Earth Dragons' as their mounts!
Normandy was just a duchy, and its ruler was a grand duke, not a king.
Therefore, the name of this knightly order clearly reflects the ambition of the Norman family.
It’s a pity that over the years, their ambitions have been just ambitions, and they haven’t even seen the possibility of realizing them.
It is worth mentioning that under the system of the Norman Duchy, the army did not actually belong to the duchy, but was the private property of the nobles.
Therefore, basically all the great nobles will have their own knightly orders, just like Viscount Evans, all the expenses of the Knights of the Boar are borne by his family.
When the war really comes, these nobles will be used to make up the numbers.
Knights, squires, and the Knights Templar, when gathered together, form an army.
This pattern has been in place for thousands of years in the Old World, but when it comes to the coordination between these knightly orders, it's hard to say.
Therefore, wars between countries are sometimes very tragic and sometimes very funny.
The upper limit can be very high, but the lower limit can also be low enough!
However, this order of knights was actually supported by the entire Norman Duchy, with money provided by the nobles, and the knights selected were also the best from all over the duchy.
It’s not that the Norman family didn’t want to support themselves, but they tried it and wisely gave up.
The breeding, domestication, cultivation, and even daily meat consumption of ground dragons are really exaggerated.
Even the Norman family could not afford it alone.
There were not many ground dragon knights coming this time, about two hundred. The leading knight was tall and burly, like a little giant.
He pointed his finger and dozens of riders separated and surrounded the Wild Boar Knights.
Although there were fewer people, even the wild boar monster seemed to cower in fear under the cold gaze of the earth dragon.
As for the other war horses, they smelled the scent and became trembling with fear, not daring to move.
The remaining ground dragon knights ran all the way until they stopped suddenly in front of the chariot formation.
At this moment, the chariot formation on which the Dragon and Beauty Mercenary Group relied for survival seemed ridiculous in front of the huge walking dragon.
Compared with the fangs of the ground dragon, the spear that was poking in front was nothing.
There were even some ground dragons that were very naughty, baring their big teeth and rubbing against the spear head.
Fortunately, this group of knights did not show any intention to attack, and did not even draw their weapons.
At this time, the leading knight took off his helmet, revealing a face that was extremely handsome.
This is actually a lady!
She raised her head slightly and said, "Sir Luo Yi, could you please come out and see me?"
Luo Yi stepped closer and felt as if he was shrouded in shadow.
The ground dragon ridden by this female knight is exceptionally tall, but it still cannot conceal the female knight's heroic figure.
Luo Yi estimated that this person was at least two meters and two meters away. Even with the armor covering his body, one could still see his extremely burly physique.
Please forgive me, Luo Yi used the word "burly", which seemed to be disrespectful to the female knight, but who told her to think of this adjective?
Coupled with that pretty face, she has an angelic face and a devilish figure!
"Excuse me, who are you?"
The female knight bowed slightly: "Deputy Captain of the Kingdom Knights, Grand Knight Commander, Third-Rank Earth Dragon Knight, Estelle.
By the order of the captain, I will protect your safety all the way to Auxerre City!"
"It seems we're a little late, and it seems you don't need guards."
Luo Yi got to the point directly: "Leader? Who is the leader you are talking about?"
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded beside her: "The captain she mentioned is Grand Duke Aphra Norman.
According to the rules of the duchy, every Grand Duke is the head of the Kingdom's Knights and has the right to directly command the Kingdom's Knights."
Luo Yi tilted his head slightly, looked at the pretty girl Eva Fleck, and asked softly: "So, this is what you call stalling for time?"
"Yes, I have already contacted the master. However, even for the Knights, it will take some time to arrive."
Having said that, she looked at Estelle again and said softly, “Grand Knight Commander Estelle, it’s a pleasure to meet you!
If you get a chance, give my tribute to your father!"
Facing the pretty girl, Estelle acted much more relaxed. She bowed slightly and said, "Long time no see, Miss Eva, the head maid.
There has been no news from my father since he accepted the mission. It is very likely that he is still fighting with the Oath Knight!"
"Then I look forward to your good news."
Luo Yi seemed to have figured something out. He was slightly startled and asked, "Your father is the half-giant Lord Bane?"
Estelle looked up, her posture straight: "Don't you think so?"
They have similar body shapes, but they look very different!
Of course, this was what he was thinking, and Luo Yi couldn't say it directly. He could only say, "If I have the chance, I would like to visit Mr. Ban to thank him for saving my life."
"Then you'll have to wait. My father doesn't like to be bound, so most of the time, I don't know where he is."
"Let's talk about this later!"
The pretty girl said at the right moment: "This is not the place to talk, and everyone is watching us."
Luo Yi nodded slightly, then looked at Estelle and asked, "What do you think we should do now?"
Estelle frowned, then looked at the pretty girl and said, "Miss Eva, the Kingdom Knights await your orders."
Eva said softly, "You have come a long way and must be very tired, so take a day off.
It just so happens that this battlefield also needs to be cleaned up, the wounded need to be treated, and that Viscount Wild Boar needs to be dealt with."
Having said that, she looked at Luo Yi again and asked, "Master Luo Yi, do you think this is the right way to deal with it?"
The three of them were like a triangle, confirming each other and also seeming to be testing each other.
As a result, Luo Yi was quite satisfied and nodded slightly: "Let's do as you say!"
After a pause, he asked again, "Then Viscount Wild Boar, what do you think we should do?"
The pretty girl asked back, "How are you going to deal with this, Master?"
"According to my temper, it would be better to just beat and kill."
"That's obviously impossible. Even the Grand Duke can't kill a Viscount without reason."
"Doesn't killing us count?"
"Of course not, you are only a potential heir to the Raymond family now, not Earl Raymond yet.
Therefore, the laws of the Duchy cannot apply to Viscount Wild Boar."
“There really is no human rights!”
Estelle spoke up, "However, if you still want to talk to him, or humiliate him, and ask for some gold shield ransom, I can bring it to him."
Luo Yi tilted his head slightly, then waved his hand and said, "Let it go, it's boring."
Having said that, he looked at the pretty girl again and said, "Eva, we should have a good talk!"
The pretty girl bowed slightly: "I have been waiting for this day for a long time."
"Then let's get moving."
…
At Estelle's command, the Earth Dragon Knights immediately retreated, and Loyi gave a few more instructions to Captain Xik.
Thus, the war preparations were completely lifted.
Estelle visited the Boar Knights and said something that made the knights abandon their horses and leave in disgrace.
Even for this, they had to be grateful to Estelle, because she preserved their last bit of dignity and did not strip them of their armor and weapons.
This is really a courtesy.
Viscount Wild Boar was treated well and his carriage was relatively neat and tidy, but when he left, the look in his eyes as he looked at the line of cars was a mixture of resentment and helplessness.
Of course, Luo Yi and his group didn't care at all.
They were busy cleaning up the battlefield, treating the wounded, burying the bodies and setting up camp.
Instead, it was Roy who led the pretty girls Eva and Estelle into the Raymond family's carriage.
Then, without the slightest hesitation, he asked directly, "Ms. Eva, tell me, what is the situation in the Principality?"
"I always feel that the situation seems to be somewhat out of control?"
