Chapter 58: Preparation for a Fight to the Death



There was a madness in Drewry's eyes, just like King Graves at this moment. His retreat had been cut off, and now the only way to survive was to capture Walls alive.

The death scythe made a series of explosive sounds, and the sound of weapons cutting through the air was heard. Amirida's eyes moved, and her horse suddenly exerted force, breaking away from Drewry's attack at an extremely fast speed, swinging the scythe but still not giving up the pursuit. Compared with the speed of the warhorse and the horse, Amirida's horse was still faster, but just running away, not attacking, could not solve the problem. Suddenly, Amirida turned her horse's head.

"Want to fight me directly?" Drewry roared suddenly. To him, Emilida in front of him was just a turtle in a jar. There were densely packed Rhodok soldiers nearby, and this guy had no way to escape.

Emilida smiled without saying anything, and thrust out the knight's sword in her hand suddenly. After a few feints, she turned around and started to run away. Drewry's fierce aura suddenly burst out. These tentative attacks completely angered him.

"You bastard, I will tear you into pieces."

The two men moved one in front and one behind, and unknowingly left the vicinity of their respective soldiers. Only then did Drewry realize that he had been fooled. If he did not lead the Rhodok soldiers to attack, it would be difficult to capture Wals alive in a short time.

"Now it's time for us to fight."

Amirida stopped his warhorse, and his horse stood with its head held high, not afraid at all of the warhorse in front of it that was more ferocious than him.

Drewry's horse was covered in armor, sacrificing some mobility in exchange for absolute defense. At this moment, he hated Amirida to the core. The two had fought in Viruga, but because of their similar strength, they were evenly matched and could not determine the winner. Later, Count Leland was captured and Count Matras was captured as the commander-in-chief. It was obvious that the battle situation would be one-sided, so Drewry had to leave Viruga first.

At this time, Drewry had realized that he had no way out and he had to make a decision here no matter what.

The focus shifted to the other side. Fire Knife and Huanbian, who escaped from Viruga, met four of Wals's men, Resarit, Niza, Fatis, and Matilde.

Two people fighting against four people are obviously at a disadvantage, but fortunately, they are led by more than 2,000 Rhodok soldiers. Although the Nord army can fight one against two, so many people gathered together and their morale is high. It is still unknown who will win and who will lose.

This place is on the left wing where both sides are fighting, and in the middle, King Gryphus has poison hooks and double kills beside him.

The poison hook in his hand had killed more than a dozen Nord soldiers. In the crowd, he let out bursts of strange laughter, with a crazy look in his eyes, which also showed that he was in a state of extreme excitement.

“Kill!”

Du Hook was laughing wildly, and suddenly, he found a familiar figure in front of him. This person was wearing exquisite armor and a special helmet on his head, and his eyes exuded a calm and steady look.

"Aileen!"

Du Hook almost roared as he spoke, the person she dreamed of killing now appeared in front of him.

Desperately and like a madman, Hook rushed towards Airen, waving his chain.

Airen did not ride a warhorse, and the same was true for Hook. As Rhodoks, few of them fought on warhorses.

The chain of the poison hook has a hook tied to its tail, and the hook is coated with deadly poison. After the poison hook swings its chain and gains enough kinetic energy, it suddenly throws it forward. The powerful force wraps around the ferocious poison hook. If an ordinary person encounters such a hook, he might die on the spot, but Airen raised his sword above his head at the same speed. The action seems careless, but in fact it injects it with powerful force.

The chain and the sword collided, and Ailen's sword was entangled and caught by the chain. Seeing this, Poison Hook laughed strangely.

"I caught you again. You can't run away this time."

"I don't think you can escape."

A sharp look flashed from the eyes of both men almost at the same time, and they seemed to have entered a situation on the battlefield where no one was trying their best, and no soldiers, whether enemy or friendly, intervened in their fight.

On the other side, Jack, holding a big axe, stood alone against Double Kill. Double Kill's force was extremely powerful and suppressed Jack.

Seeing this, Hogarth wanted to step forward to help, but was rejected by Jack.

"If you dare to come over and hinder our duel, we will no longer be good brothers."

After saying this harsh words, Hoggs stopped and led ordinary Nord soldiers to resist the Rock army.

Many generals were resisting the Rhodok soldiers on the battlefield, but the most dazzling among the enemies was not Drewry and those generals, but King Gryphus who led the army in person.

He rode a sturdy warhorse with a heavy armor on it, which provided great defense. All the Nord soldiers blocking his way were knocked away by the warhorse. Following him was a group of special forces unique to the Rhodok Kingdom. These guys were called Giant Bear Knights.

But the number of Giant Bear Knights was pitifully small. They were just a cavalry unit established by King Gryphus after the defeat of Suno, with only a dozen people.

A huge knight's sword is the weapon used by King Gryfus. Like a cutting machine, this group of knights crushed one Nord soldier after another wherever they passed.

"Wols, this time it's time for me to wash away my previous shame with blood."

The sound is as loud as thunder and full of momentum.

A gust of wind blew up, and the person who appeared before King Gryphus was the one he wanted to see but was afraid to see.

"King Graves, I will not let you escape this time."

Wals was holding the Cliff Blade and riding a strong warhorse. Like King Gryphus, his horse was covered in armor. Behind him was a group of sub-armored Swadian knights.

When he first saw Walls appear, King Griffiths's majesty suddenly dropped by half, as if he was a mouse seeing a cat. But the next second, King Griffiths' body expanded extremely, and he turned from a tiny mouse into a huge bear.

"Wols!"

King Graves gnashed his teeth and shouted his name in extreme anger. Then, without saying anything else, he drove his warhorse forward, crushing the bodies of soldiers who were either enemies or ours. The knight's sword in his hand was ready to attack at any time, and his eyes were fixed on Wals' heart.

A fatal blow, this victory is mine.

But in front of him, Wals also moved as he pleased. Although the Cliff Blade had been burned by flames and its power was weakened compared to before, it was still more than enough to cut through King Gryphus's armor. The warhorse was neighing, and behind him were the charging Swadian knights. Wals was the first to stand in the front line of the battle, and the two teams suddenly collided with each other.

The two groups of people collided with each other, and a scene that Walls could not believe happened. The giant bear knight behind King Graves actually knocked his own knight away with his horse. The elite troops of the Swadia Kingdom seemed to become a blank sheet of paper in front of this group of giant bear knights.

"You are shocked, right? This is the secret unit that I am proud of. After you attacked and defeated me, I noticed the importance of cavalry on the plains. You should know that I have never been afraid of you. This team appeared just to defeat you."

King Gryphus laughed wildly, and his old face suddenly became ferocious. All this was caused by Wals.

Wals's expression remained unchanged, because he knew that he could not panic at this moment. The soldiers behind him were paying attention to him. If he showed panic, it would spread to his army like a plague.

"No matter how powerful your team is, there are only ten of them. I will tear them apart one by one."

Wals spoke fiercely, and as soon as he finished speaking, his horse rushed towards the giant bear rider closest to him.

A gust of wind blew, and the sub-armored giant bear knight had no time to defend himself. The cliff blade suddenly stabbed out and pierced the heart of the giant bear knight.

"Nothing more!"

He turned around and stared at King Graves with contempt. The latter became even crazier.

"No, you have been trapped in my encirclement. Giant Bear Knights, get rid of this guy for me."

Now there are only 9 Giant Bear Knights left. The other four are used to resist the team of Swadian Knights, and the remaining five Giant Bear Knights are rushing towards Wals with heavy lances in hand. With the help of the powerful kinetic energy of the war horses and the huge power of the lances, ordinary people will definitely be pierced through the body by this lance charge. No armor can remain intact under the lance charge.

气势汹汹的巨熊骑士真的如同战场死神一般,那些斯瓦迪亚骑士在这一些巨熊骑士面前仿佛弱小了许多,几名斯瓦迪亚骑士已经被巨熊骑士给斩杀,可是毕竟斯瓦迪亚骑士人数众多,这时巨熊骑士已经死掉了两名,剩下的两名身上也是带有重伤,以一敌二本来就是一个高难度的事情,况且是名满大陆的斯瓦迪亚骑士。葛瑞福斯国王并不擅长战斗,他只是在一旁静静的看着。

其他的诺德士兵也渐渐朝这边移动,很显然他们看到了自己的统帅遇到了危险,可是罗多克士兵也不甘示弱,这些为了家园为了自己家人的罗多克士兵,风一般朝着诺德士兵移动而去,他们拿起简陋的武器拼死和诺德士兵抗衡。因此相当数量的诺德士兵被这一群普通的罗多克士兵给拖住了,仅仅只有少部分的诺德士兵前来拯救沃尔斯。

五名巨熊骑士分别从五个不同的方向冲过来,沃尔斯完避无可避。

“既然避无可避的话,那么我就拼死一战。”

沃尔斯并没有使用骑枪,他拿着手里的武器还是那一把断崖之刃,五杆骑枪朝着他冲锋而过,而沃尔斯在选定一个方向之后便去使得战马朝着一名巨熊骑士冲了过去。

四名巨熊骑士形成追尾之势,他们奔跑在沃尔斯的后面,而在沃尔斯的正前方,也就是沃尔斯冲向了那一名巨熊骑士,他这时朝着沃尔斯迎面冲来。断崖之刃和巨熊骑士的骑枪交叉而过,他的那一张骑枪居然硬生生被沃尔斯给抓住。

在巨熊骑士惊讶的目光当中,沃尔斯断崖之刃猛然向下一斩,这一张骑枪便被斩断了。

这还不算,巨熊骑士在骑枪被斩断之后,他身下的战马并没有停止移动,反而错过沃尔斯向前冲去,后面的四名巨型骑士明显刹不住脚,一名巨熊骑士的长枪一不小心就刺伤了这名倒霉的巨熊骑士战马,巨熊骑士从战马之上跌落而下。

在确定自己的同伴没有受伤之后,剩下的四名巨熊骑士又继续开始追击沃尔斯,可是在这一瞬间,这四名巨熊骑士居然看见沃尔斯驱使他的战马朝自己冲过来。

怎么回事?难道他看不见自己这一方还有四个人吗?

四名巨熊骑士穿戴的铠甲都像铁桶一般,身上下覆盖着坚硬的铠甲,这为他们提供了充足的防御,除非是断崖之刃这样的神兵利器,否则的话谁也别想破开这一层防御。

剩下的四名巨熊骑士刚一准备发动冲锋的时候,突然发现沃尔斯的身后出现了密密麻麻的一层诺德勇士。

他不是一个人在战斗!

巨熊骑士们的脑海当中突然就出现了这一个信息,可是为了国家,他们死在这个战场之上又有何妨?即使在他们前面是千军万马他们也绝不退缩,况且,冲在最前面的是他们首要目标。

“拿下他,为了祖国!”

巨熊骑士们抱着必死的决心朝沃尔斯发起了最后的冲锋。

强大的信念化为巨大的力量,四名巨熊骑士还未冲到沃尔斯面前的时候,只见前方出现了漫天的斧头,这是诺德勇士惯用的招数,每一次在与敌人短兵相接的时候,都会投掷飞斧以削弱敌人的体力。

只听砰砰砰的声音在巨熊骑士的身上不断发出来。

因为有着坚固的铠甲作为庇护,那些飞斧只是在铠甲上面留下了浅浅一道的痕迹而已,但是强大的冲击力依然造就了一些的痛感,这些巨熊骑士的大脑当中依然产生了不可磨灭的疼痛感。这很容易影响他们的思维力。

“绝不后退!”为首的一名巨熊骑士大喊着说到,身上突然出现的一股令人难以相信的气势。

这着实吓坏了战场上面的诺德士兵,他的那一声吼让诺德人也感受到了恐惧与震惊。

可是,也让巨熊骑士感到震惊的一幕出现了。正在朝他们冲过来的沃尔斯速度不减反增,双眼之中散发着常人难以拥有的沉稳与镇定。四人和沃尔斯交错而过,那名为首的巨熊骑士就被斩下了脑袋。

沃尔斯,左右手臂都被骑枪划过,铠甲也破损不堪,露出了里面流着鲜血的血肉。

“勇士们,替我干掉他们三个。”

话音刚落,在沃尔斯身后的诺德勇士,迅速冲上去填补了战场上面的空白,在一群穿戴的金属铠甲的诺德勇士,拿起他们手中的战斧,丝毫不畏惧人高马大的巨熊骑士,在人数众多的诺德勇士面前,这是几名巨熊骑士不过就是几具尸体罢了。在巨熊骑士不甘的愤怒当中,他们被诺德勇士的巨斧给撕得粉碎。

目睹了巨熊骑士的陨落,沃尔斯又将自己的头转向另一方,在远处,艾米瑞达和德鲁里的战斗依旧在持续着,沃尔斯这一次是此刻并不着急担心艾米瑞达。

他舞动手中的长剑,拉住缰绳,使得他的坐骑调转方向。

战斗还未结束,战场上面的厮杀声不绝入耳,到处都可以看见尸体,这其中大多数是罗多克士兵的尸体,他们毕竟只是普普通通的农夫而已,刚刚应征入伍没过多久,没有经过正式的训练而且也没有精良的装备,在面对以徒步作战威震大陆的诺德勇士的面前,这些普通的罗多克士兵不过就是来送死而已。

视线跨过这遍地是尸体的战场之上,沃尔斯将目光锁定在一个身铠甲包裹的一个人身上。那一个人正在指挥着他的士兵们抵抗着斯瓦迪亚骑士的冲锋。

巨熊骑士部战死了,斯瓦迪亚骑士比起巨熊骑士要弱一点,这毕竟是葛瑞福斯国王最后的底牌,可是在人数上他比不过斯瓦迪亚骑士,因此在人数占据劣势的时候,斯瓦迪亚骑士在伤亡了几名同伴之后,终于杀掉了了牵制住他们的巨熊骑士。与此他们腾出手就可以抓捕葛瑞福斯国王。不过不幸的是,跟随着葛瑞福斯的脚步,有着一群罗多克士兵冲杀到沃尔斯的阵营当中最好

这也就导致了他一时半会儿没有被抓住的原因。罗多克士兵还残留着一些从维鲁加里面逃走的精锐,葛瑞福斯国王将这批精锐部队给集中起来,让他来亲自指挥,大刀和长矛是对付骑兵的利器,这些精锐的罗多克士兵在巨熊骑士牵制住斯瓦迪亚骑士的时候排好了阵势,给了他们充足的时间让罗多克士兵摆好阵势的,这无疑就增加了攻破他们的难度。

沃尔斯皱了皱眉头,忍住自己身上的伤痛,他快马加鞭奔跑到葛瑞福斯国王附近,现在他要亲自来指挥去的士兵攻破葛瑞福斯国王的最后一道防线。

当沃尔斯的战马经过葛瑞福斯国王身边的时候,隔着一群罗罗克士兵,葛瑞福斯国王朝着沃尔斯愤怒的吼叫着。

“你这该死的家伙,我的巨熊骑士没能够将你送下地狱,既然如此的话这也是神灵给我的一个机会,一个可以让我亲手杀掉你的机会。”

说着,葛瑞福斯国王舞动着自己手中的巨剑,这一把巨剑锋利异常,上面还沾染着鲜血,看得出来他已经斩杀了几名诺德士兵。

“这把剑就是杀死你的剑。”

葛瑞福斯国王眼中的怨恨更加旺盛,凌厉的气势从他为中心向四周散发而来,这鼓舞了他的罗多克士兵。

沃尔斯并没有答话,他自始至终在经过葛瑞福斯国王的时候,就在观察围在它外面的那一群罗多克士兵,这一共有两圈罗多克士兵,最外面的一圈罗多克士兵是举起盾牌,他们的手中拿着的是短刃士兵刀,这是一种轻便有效的军刀,而在里面的那一圈罗多克士兵则是拿起了大刀长矛的,部都是长兵器,在盾牌与盾牌的间隙之间,他们将这些长兵器伸出来。

这样的防守阵型极为基础,却可以轻易的防御骑兵的冲锋,如果有骑兵敢直面这样的阵型,一定会被大刀长矛给刺成刺猬。

很快,沃尔斯就到达了自己士兵的挣钱,这一群斯瓦迪亚骑士以及附近的一些诺德士兵,都按兵不动,他们已经看见了沃尔斯朝这边走来,这也意味着他们将亲自指挥自己,况且前面的这一个阵型极难攻破,他们处在两方军队交战的大后方,因此在专心致志对付眼前敌人的诺德士兵和罗多克士兵,都无暇顾及这里的局势,聚集在这里的沃尔斯的士兵只是后方的一部分士兵。

他看着自己士兵那期盼的眼神,沃尔斯知道,这些家伙在等待着自己的到来。

既然格瑞福斯国王说了一些壮志凌云的话来激励他的士兵,自己也应该如此。

沃尔斯面向他的这些士兵,对他们说道。

"Soldiers, you are all the most powerful warriors on the continent, and in front of you is the Rock Army that we once defeated. This time we must defeat our defeated opponents again. Everyone, follow me and charge forward."

“We will win!”

I don't know which clever soldier shouted this word, and then the soldiers nearby all shouted this word. The shouts one after another clearly overwhelmed the Rhodok soldiers.

After getting a satisfactory result, Walls turned his gaze again. King Graves was wearing a helmet, and Walls could not see the emotions in his eyes at such a far distance.
