In a forest southeast of Maned Wolf Castle, Jeor Mormont, Baron of Wild Bear Ridge, was walking alone. He kept cutting branches with his sword in his right hand, and held another accessory tightly in his left hand. , that is his eldest son's sword.
His son Winks Mormont has been away for four days. His son's injury improved four days ago. The two of them rode horses and continued to move towards the Maned Wolf City.
Winks even said that after this battle is over, he will muster up the courage to write a love letter to the Maned Wolf Flower in Maned Wolf City.
However, everything came to an abrupt end four days ago. That night, when Geo and his son were resting in the shade of Epo, a small group of six barbarians suddenly appeared next to Geo and Winks.
The barbarians who came out of the blue didn't give the two men a chance to fight back. They flew towards them like lightning and were about to catch them.
At the critical moment, Winks used all his strength to push Geo down the hillside. Although Geo was slightly bruised during the roll, he finally managed to save himself. When Geo carefully went back to find Winks the next day, He has lost his head and body.
Geo didn't know how he buried his son. There was only hatred, unwillingness, anger, and humiliation in his heart.
The current Baron of Wild Bear Ridge just wants to fly to Maned Wolf City immediately, join the count's knights, and die together with those barbarian beasts on the battlefield.
Houses were burning in the distance, and the sound of women's cries, the sound of metal hitting, and the noise of barbarian cavalry reached the Baron's ears.
Less than 1 kilometer outside the woods, a knight's territory was invaded by barbarians. The tall barbarian cavalry rode directly into the knight's castle and robbed the prey they were looking for.
A team of twelve barbarian cavalry is enough to visit multiple knights in one day. They will steal the gold coins, beautiful women and 60% of the demon supporters in the knight's castle.
The barbarians swept across like a whirlwind. Unless the territory was established on high mountains or in the forest, there was no way to stop the barbarian cavalry.
Geo stood in the woods, numbly looking at the fire outside the woods, but in the past four days, he had seen three similar scenes.
In Geo's heart, the past belief in the code of chivalry was now like a knife piercing his chest and sticking to his face like a branding iron.
At this moment, Jie Ao had no choice. He could only let Barbarian gain a little more. But Geo was unwilling to turn a blind eye and continue on his way, because indifference was a greater betrayal of faith.
When the two suns rose again, Geo continued on his way. Now without a horse, he could only keep walking in the mountains and forests, avoiding open areas as much as possible and approaching the Maned Wolf City in a roundabout way.
Continuous detours brought him to the eastern part of Maned Wolf City. At this moment, he could already see the outline of the city wall in the distance, and in front of him was a mountain path. The hill he was on divided the path into a V-shaped corner. .
Geo first looked to the side of the hill and saw a 13-man barbarian patrol on the road, coming towards here.
So the baron hurriedly ran to the other side, only to see a small group of humans on the other side of the mountain rushing on their way. The barbarian cavalry and the human team will meet in less than 10 minutes.
At this moment, Geo could no longer sit idly by and rushed directly towards the human team. In this 10-person cavalry team, the two leaders are demon-supporters, both taller than the baron, and both ride white horses.
Everyone was wearing linen-colored coarse cloth coats. The long coats almost reached the ground, and the wide hoods covered the faces of the group of people.
"Run!... Hurry... get out of here!" The baron started shouting when he was almost there. "There... there is a barbarian patrol ahead!"
The human team stopped and everyone looked at the Baron running over, but no one moved a step.
"What are you...what are you waiting for? They, those beasts...that group are coming, leave quickly!"
"Brother? Are you injured?" The second demon-wisher in the team said in a very kind tone.
"I... It doesn't matter that I'm injured... Run quickly... Don't go head-to-head with... those barbarians." At this moment, the Baron was breathing heavily. He opened his arms to stop the group, hoping that the group would hide. On the mountain next to it, the two demon-wielding people were able to hide away at the worst.
"Nicholas, you go treat this brother, and I'll deal with the barbarians." The demon-wielding man at the front of the team glanced at Nikolai, who was second, kicked the horse in the belly, and moved forward alone.
Looking at the human demon possessor in front of him, Geo realized that this must be a knight. At this moment, Geo was very envious. He also hoped that he could face enemies many times stronger than himself calmly according to the knight's code.
He even hoped that he could use sacrifice to wash away the shame of refusing to save him, but he couldn't die yet because he hadn't avenged his son yet.
The knight in sackcloth was advancing alone, and 13 barbarian cavalry appeared on the path in the distance.
The barbarians roared excitedly as they looked at the three demon holders. The leader of the barbarians shouted, and the cavalry marched towards the human team in a row of three. The barbarians did not leave a reserve team, and all of them rushed over directly.
The knight was standing in the middle of the road. He took off his linen robe, revealing his silver-white armor, which looked like white fish scales. Baron Geo could only squint his eyes and look forward. There was a short spear carried on the scale armor. The paladin took off the short spear and twisted a mechanism. The short spear extended and turned into a long spear.
"God-Emperor of the Imperium of Man, great god of knights and magicians, your devout follower Nicholas White hereby prays to you.
Please bless your loyal believer, Paladin Burt Call, uphold your holy will, move forward bravely, and be invincible! "Nicola White prayed loudly, and the demon-free ones behind him were also chanting in low voices.
As the sentences were recited, the armor worn by Paladin Burt Call and the spear in his hand were emitting divine light. He stood in the road and did not move forward. Instead, he lowered his head and prayed. At this moment, he ignored the approaching cavalry in front of him.
Bert Call was not in a hurry, and neither were the barbarians. The horses advanced slowly. The barbarians led by them looked at the paladins with interest. They were taught from a very young age not to provoke the human paladins and magicians, but they had just been swept away. The barbarian cavalry that occupied the entire northwest territory of the Dragon Kingdom had been dazzled by the victory.
In their opinion, the most important thing in fighting on horseback is riding skills. The shining human race in front of him may be a little different, but if he can't make the horse speed up, it is impossible to defeat 13 barbarian cavalry. . .
When the cavalrymen rode carelessly to less than 200 meters away from the paladin, they were stunned.
