"In the name of Byrne, in the name of Turin... Charge -!!!"

Under the dome, the Byrne Knights wielding heavy swords and long knives galloped in the front of the enemy's collapse. In the thunderous sound of iron horses, they could only see one colorful swallow tail flag after another, flashing in the rolling yellow dust.

Compared with the Byrne knights who fought separately in twos and threes, but cooperated with the tacit understanding, the enemy centaurs were completely panicked. Before the battle, there was a situation that was about to collapse. The whole front was mixed up with the rangers who broke into the battlefield.

Under the surprise attack of the vanguard Rangers without warning, the blockade position in the east of the Centaur army has declared the collapse of the whole line, and the momentum of the collapse is still expanding to the two wings;

Although these Centaur warriors are still struggling to resist, and the troops scattered from both wings are constantly joining them... When the gap in the blockade appears, the end is doomed.

However, on the chaotic battlefield, the red eyed soldiers on both sides have not realized that the war situation has changed and are still fighting with the enemy in front of them.

"Rush over! Duke guard, follow me, move forward -!!!"

The voice fell. Before the soldiers behind him reacted, the gray pupil boy who galloped and waved two sharp blades had rushed more than ten steps away.

Facing the sharp blade and ferocious faces, Lucian on the horseback remained motionless.

What moved was the two swords in his hand... The sword of the Duke of elmond and the gun of the dragon knight.

"Dang --!"

The bright blade of the sword passed along the falling axe blade. At the moment of the fire, the left hand holding the handle of the sword had penetrated the enemy's throat;

The spear that pierced his head fell off against his sideburns; The blade of the right hand tore the Centaur's throat from bottom to top by the inertia of charging;

The heavy long handled axe waved from the back of his head, and the unavoidable Lucian immediately leaned back; The bloody Tomahawk hit the Centaur coming from the front without suspense, and the stunned head flew into the air.

"Pa!"

The right-hand sword edge entered the scabbard. Lucian immediately grabbed the throwing spear passing in front of him, and stabbed the sharp spear point into the throat of the enemy behind him.

The grey pupil boy is still expressionless.

At the moment of getting up, the "Dragon Knight's gun" in his right hand came out of the scabbard again, and a frightened face of the Centaur warrior... Was split in two.

In the flash of lightning and stone fire, the grey pupil boy had rushed out more than ten steps and left the members of the Duke's guard behind, leaving only a gaping expression.

Is this... The power of the apostles of evil gods?

Ruthen thought faintly.

The last time he felt it was not obvious, but now... When the rune began to "burn" behind his neck, he did feel that his whole person had become different.

Slower time, faster pace, stronger way of thinking... Lucian didn't think of that.

What he can understand is that the body seems to have its own consciousness. No matter what kind of enemy it is facing, it can make at least two or more judgments in an instant; And when you decide, you will naturally start to move.

No matter how many enemies we face and how severe the situation is, we can make the calmest and most reasonable judgment in an instant according to our own goals.

This power... Can never come at no cost.

In a trance, the grey pupil boy suddenly remembered what the oath knight had said.

But there is only one way... Only in this way can I continue to guard Lord Lauren, rather than become a burden that needs to be "protected" by him;

I am willing to pay any price!

The Duke guard that followed was still fighting with the enemies on both sides. Seeing that it was impossible to get away, a surrounded guard cavalry resolutely pinched the igniter in his hand and died with five or six Centaur soldiers around.

"Boom --!"

The light of fire was shining behind him. Without looking back, Lucian still rushed straight to the last enemy and broke through the enemy's blockade.

In the distance, we can already see the array of Boyi army and the machete horse flag of Varna family.

On the chaotic battlefield, as the Duke guard and Rangers defeated the frontal blockade, the following Bain light and heavy cavalry and infantry phalanx followed immediately; Like a torrent of catharsis, it constantly tears and expands the crack.

The enemy's defeated army and distant reinforcements, like receiving any order, no longer continue to join the battlefield, but move rapidly in the opposite direction.

Even if they were entangled by the charging Byrne knights, the Centaur army was as "decisive" as in the past, leaving a small group of troops entangled behind and retreating very quickly.

"Are they retreating?"

Although the interrogative sentence was used, the black haired wizard's expression was very positive - not a rout, let alone a flight; It's a retreat, and a prepared retreat.

Even if they retreated like losing their armor, the Centaur army leaving the battlefield still did not see any panic. They continued to cross cover and arranged the broken soldiers to block the "wall charging" of Byrne Knights layer by layer, so that the front of Byrne army could not threaten their core army.

"Do you want to chase, Lord Loren?" ruthen asked silently, clutching the hilt of his sword and without raising his head.

"No, since the enemy retreats, let them withdraw. Don't worry and defeat them immediately." Loren shook his head and said in a deep voice, "our first goal is still to extricate the Boyi Army... If we do this, we will win."

Despite this, Loren couldn't help glancing behind him at the wounded and tired Bain soldiers who marched all the way and then immediately went into battle;

Looking at the "breakthrough passage" spread out by hundreds of steps behind them with the bones of soldiers - in order to open this passage, a quarter of the Rangers came from qiaowang peak, and a quarter of them would never return to their hometown again.

The dark haired wizard with an unchanged face had a faint pupil.

It's not that I don't want to, but the exhausted Byrne army really has no spare power to fight against the wind like Centaur army after breaking through the siege.

Moreover, in the face of such a cunning and powerful enemy, it is not too cautious.

"... let's go and join the main force of Boyi army first."

With a heavy sigh, Loren made the final decision. In the distance, under the banner of machete horses, a large group of boa Hussars were coming this way.

………………………………

"Long time no see, the conqueror of silver helmets, the respected Duke of Loren Turin."

"Long time no see, well-informed and experienced elder, master Harlem van achamay."

On the battlefield full of corpses, the two men under the protection of the Knights looked at each other, and then couldn't help laughing.

But there was a trace of fatigue and desolation in their laughter.

"How's it going?" Lauren asked first, raising his eyebrows.

Master Halin van achmai sighed with deep sadness and sadness: "as you can see... Boyi, it's not Boyi of yesterday."

The black haired wizard frowned slightly, looked at the surrounding scene with worry, and guessed how fierce the bloody battle was on that day.

The scuffle of 200000 troops... Even if there is an immediate reference, it is not a scene that can be "imagined".

"Five thousand silver armour cavalry were destroyed, and hundreds of survivors were injured. Forty thousand infantry, more than half of them were injured, and not even one tenth of them could continue to fight." master asamai said calmly: "as for the 60000 hussars, they most want to meet the enemy, and their injuries and deaths are the greatest... There are more than 20000 left."

Hearing this number, Lauren was slightly relieved: "OK."

At least I arrived in time... If the main force of Boye is destroyed, there is really no room for recovery.

"Okay?"

Halin van ashmai, who whispered in a low voice, looked at the battlefield behind him with tired eyes and calm eyes: "yes, everything is OK... It's lucky that half of the troops can survive such a tragic defeat!"

Silent Loren, be a listener quietly.

"When we were ambushed from the back by the Centaur army, Archduke Laslo Varna led the guard to meet the enemy alone, and then never came back..."

"The enemy seems to be clear about our tactical deployment... After finding that his back was attacked, count Seth braha, who fought hard to get out of the siege, led the silver armor cavalry to break through the siege four times, surrounded four times, and almost lost the whole army..."

Even at this moment, master Harlem van achamay was still calm. He could hardly see too many emotional fluctuations except his eyes. He calmly expounded a fact:

"... after ten days of siege, the Centaur army cut off all supply lines. With only the supplies and materials with the army and the rest on the battlefield, it was impossible to support the expenses of the remaining troops, let alone treat the wounded..."

"... although there are nearly 50000 troops left in our army, three fifths of them are seriously wounded, their weapons are seriously damaged, their supplies are consumed, and there are few war horses left..."

Master asamai raised his head and calmly looked at the black haired Wizard: "if you are ready to launch a counterattack against the Centaur now, I can only advise you not to expect too much from the Boyi army."

"Can you even guess that?" Lauren's expression moved slightly, and a trace of amazement flashed across the bottom of his eyes.

"As you said, it's just a guess... You're so anxious to go north, it must not be just because the main force of the Boyi army is besieged - even the friendship between Byrne and Boyi is not worth your life." master asamai said faintly:

"No, something must have happened to make you unable to wait any longer. You'd rather take risks and end the war as soon as possible!"

The black haired wizard was surprised and subconsciously blurted out: "you already know?!"

"It seems that you must have found something special in the battle of silver helmet mountain." Halin van ashmai's eyes are very deep: "if I'm not wrong, I'm afraid..."

"Holy Blood potion!"

The two spoke in unison.

"It's because of it that Archduke Laszlo Varna died and suffered a terrible defeat!" master asamai said in a deep voice, with sharp eyes fixed on the black haired Wizard: "I heard of the blood cult rebellion in red blood castle before I came here. I'm afraid these two things are not unrelated, right

Lauren nodded slightly, and his expression was also dignified to the extreme: "it's far more than that... The problem is 10000 times more serious than we thought."

Looking at the dark haired wizard's serious expression, Halin van ashmai frowned: "so this is not a separate event, or just a conspiracy of some behind the scenes, right?"

"When I was in eboden, I had some dealings with a holy cross bishop called 'Francis'." Loren said, "you are familiar with master corona. You should know more about the inside than I do."

"But even he... Is just a piece on the chessboard. It's more important at best."

"Francis?"

Master achamai breathed deeply: "I understand that this matter must be notified to Elbert of the imperial capital as soon as possible, and he will convey it to the Imperial Cabinet and his majesty akhat II."

"Corona... It may not be a wise choice for him to hide the truth in order to maintain the relationship between the wizard tower and the church."

Lauren's eyes were very complicated.

On that night of eboden, if he was not in a hurry to leave, if he was not later his "negligence", if he did not sit and watch the spread of Holy Blood potion like Brandon

All this could have been avoided.

At this moment

"Lord Lorraine --!" Lucian suddenly exclaimed.

The black haired wizard and Halin van ashmai raised their heads at the same time and looked in amazement at the front of the two army barracks.

The Centaur army that had been evacuated returned, and the dense dark shadow appeared at the end of their sight like a rolling torrent.

In an instant, the Byrne knights who had finally breathed a sigh of relief tightened their nerves again and looked nervously at the returning enemy.

"Boyi, Bain --!" the first grey pupil boy who responded shouted hoarsely, and his right hand had pulled out the sharp blade from his waist:

"Array! Prepare to meet the enemy, prepare to meet the enemy!!!!"

All of a sudden, everyone in the camp began to act quickly. Without command, they began to instinctively organize formations and military lines with only one slogan;

The exhausted Byrne Rangers and the wounded and emaciated Boyi Hussars consciously formed a charging queue to intercept the enemy's first round of attack.

"Wait!"

Suddenly, the dark haired wizard stopped the gray pupil boy who was ready to rush to the front line, and his dark pupil stared straight ahead:

"Don't panic, the situation... Something's wrong!"

At the end of his sight, the Centaur army had stopped moving; In front of the dense military array, a figure came out.

Towards them.
