Chapter 321 Alice Arrives!
Although there were a large number of casualties on the battlefield ahead, there were still small-scale battles.
It was Lauriek and his men who were dealing with the hundreds of pirates who came from the ships on the coast and attacked from the front and back. It took these pirates more than half an hour to get there, but when they arrived, the pirates on the road had already been wiped out by Ik and his men.
Of course, this was because several grenades played a huge role. After four or five grenades were thrown in succession, a large number of pirates were killed immediately, and these grenades were even more deterrent to the pirates.
As the pirates became frightened, the battle situation tilted towards Gervis. The pirates wanted to escape, but the ships were at the seashore, behind Ike and others. Without the leadership of the titled knights, the ordinary pirates did not have the courage to return to the heart of Storm Territory. So although they wanted to retreat, the pirates did not flee behind them, but simply switched from offense to defense.
Lance and his men also noticed the pirates' situation. During the battle, they kept yelling at them not to retreat and ordered a strong attack. Unfortunately, it was useless because he couldn't go over to command them personally, and Wright was not there, so the deterrent effect on the pirates was reduced a lot.
As for Lance himself, he and the other bronze knight had been suppressed by Bernard and could not make any unnecessary movements. If they were careless, they would most likely be beheaded.
However, a bronze knight from the Unicorn side wanted to leave the battle circle to help, but he was immediately attacked by all the longbowmen.
After two rounds of arrows from the slave soldiers, the title knight, whose shoulder had been pierced by the unicorn long ago, had no choice but to retreat. Two more arrows hit his body, one on his arm and the other on his thigh. Although he had saved his life, he could no longer fight and was considered useless.
As the pirates' offensive became weaker and weaker, Gervis's hundred or so subordinates began a one-sided massacre under Ik's order. In just a moment, the pirates really collapsed. They no longer cared whether they had a chance of escape by fleeing towards the castle, and they all fled. However, facing the slave longbowmen who almost never missed their shots, those who ran fast were shot to death one by one, and those who ran slowly were killed by the swords of the guards and slave longswordmen.
When the ordinary pirates were almost all killed, several titled knights could not hold on any longer and wanted to escape, but Bernard would never give them this opportunity. With the help of the harassment of ordinary soldiers, he quickly killed Lance and the other two with his sword. Finally, several titled knights who besieged the Unicorn also followed suit.
…
"kill!"
The hundred or so pirates were already being besieged by Ike and Laurie, and they were frightened out of their wits when they saw the dead bodies of pirates all over the ground. They originally wanted to break out and run back to the pirate ship, but when they saw more than 200 silver-armored cavalrymen rumbling towards them not far away, everyone instantly lost the courage to fight.
"Surrender! We surrender! Don't kill me!"
After the first one, there was a second one. Dozens of pirates stopped resisting, dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground.
When Ik and others saw the pirates kneeling down to surrender, they also stopped their swords. They also saw the hundreds of cavalrymen coming from behind. However, follower Gervis had stayed in Rose Castle for so many days and was very familiar with the uniforms and standard armor of the Rose Knights. He recognized the origins of these cavalrymen at once.
"Ike, don't mention me later!"
Bernard cut off a piece of the pirate's clothes and carefully wiped the blood off the sword. Then he came to Ike and whispered instructions.
"Yes, Mr. Bernard!"
Ike looked at Bernard with complicated eyes. He really didn't expect that the seemingly ordinary blacksmith in the town, the father of the super-powerful boy Alec, was actually a hidden master.
"Thank you!"
When Bernard heard Ike's answer, he nodded and thanked him, then walked to the edge of the crowd, his armor covered by his long gown.
"My Lord Earl!"
"My Lord Earl!"
Ike and the guards immediately recognized Alice, who was rushing in the front with a bow and arrow in her hand, and saluted respectfully.
They were shocked that the Earl actually came to this remote Storm Territory in person.
"If Lord Gervis were here, I would be happy for a long time!"
"By the way, where is the Lord?"
Because of the continuous fighting, it was not until this moment that Ike realized that he seemed to have forgotten something very important.
"You are the captain of Gervis's personal guard. Where is Gervis? How is the battle going? Are there any more enemies?"
Alice and her group approached with swords drawn, only to find that the small group of pirates who had just been fighting were now kneeling on the ground and trembling. Alice looked around the place and did not see Gervis, so she immediately asked.
Facing Alice's three consecutive questions, Ike did not dare to neglect them at all. Moreover, as a personal guard, he was seriously derelict in his duty because he did not know the condition of his master. He immediately replied, "My Lord Earl, just now Lord Gervis led the pirate leader away by himself and sent him to the seaside!"
Alice's heart skipped a beat. Ike and the others didn't know the origin of this pirate group, but Alice knew it, and she knew Wright's strength even more. Gervis actually dared to lead the silver intermediate knight away alone. Alice didn't know whether to say Gervis was brave or stupid.
"You fool!"
Alice cursed in her heart, and then quickly said: "Leave half of the people to help rescue the wounded, and the others follow me!"
After saying that, Alice prepared to lead the way to the seaside.
"My Lord Earl, this unicorn is Lord Gervis's mount. It will definitely lead you to find the Lord!"
At this moment, Bernard, who was originally mixed in the crowd, spoke up.
Alice then turned her attention to the unicorn that was licking its wounds. There were already four or five knife wounds on its body.
The terrain here was too narrow, and the unicorn was unable to take advantage of its combat strengths. Moreover, the unicorn's skill was detoxification, so it was besieged for a long time by a silver knight and three bronze knights, but was unable to kill the enemy.
"Unicorn! Do you know where your master is? Take us to find him!"
Alice was surprised that the unicorn was so docile. If the king was not around, anyone who dared to approach the king's mount would be in immediate danger.
hiss!
The unicorn seemed to understand Alice's words. It didn't care about the wounds on its body. It let out a long hiss and ran towards the beach.
"Walk!"
Alice did not dare to delay and immediately urged her horse to chase after the unicorn.
…
"Oh my god, where am I? Why am I so sore and weak all over?"
Gervis woke up slowly, but he was still in a daze. He opened his eyes slightly and tried to raise his hands to support himself to sit up, but found that his whole body was sore, as if he had been ravaged by a hundred big men with hammers.
"By the way, I think I was sitting on the big bear when I was attacked by the Thunder Tiger!"
"Grevith! Are you awake? Gervis, you finally woke up! Woohoo~"
Before Gervis fully opened his eyes, he heard Bonita's loud scream in his ears!
"Oh my god, sister, stop pressing on my chest! I can't breathe!"
If Gervis had the strength, he would have beaten this unreliable sister severely. If this girl wasn't electrocuted to death by the Thunder Tiger, she might have been crushed to death by her own sister.
