Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 1014: Battlefield Millstone

At this time, the enemy horses began to charge. A faint red flame burst out from the leader of the horse team. Behind him, a phantom of a knight holding a heavy spear was taking shape. The lines on the leader's chest flickered, and the carving of a vaulting horse knight pattern finally took shape. The leader's aura reached its peak, and the level 23 Origin Energy was clearly not slack-handed. Apart from that, there were also a few strands of aura rushing up from the horse team. Under the night sky, there were a few more balls of flames of all colors. They were all experts of the horse team.

Ellen narrowed his eyes and whispered, "Sure enough, I have spent a lot of money. I don't know which lord did it …" He added, "Laura, knock their leader down."

A layer of golden light flashed through the black-haired Laura's pupils, and she suddenly shrank to her vertical pupils. Her eyes turned black, and a violent aura erupted from her body. Fares and the others were closer to her, pushing away some of the formless might that she had rushed up. Both of them were shocked. At this moment, the Origin Energy aura on Laura's body had reached Level 22. Not to mention, her aura was still filled with the smell of wildness. If they closed their eyes, the two of them would mistakenly think that there was a ferocious beast lingering beside them.

They were even more surprised by the change.

Laura's bare arms and calves gave birth to large patches of crimson fur. When several beast patterns formed on her cheeks, she opened her mouth and let out a soft howl. The next moment, Laura lifted her sword and jumped down from the top of the slope. When she landed on the ground, everyone felt the earth tremble. The earth did not tremble, but Laura's wild aura shook everyone's hearts, causing them to have the illusion of trembling. Then, she began to run, her posture of dragging the giant sword forward like a cheetah in the wilderness!

"Regis, Nelly and the others, greet the other experts." Alan gave the order again, and another wave of aura rushed up from his side.

Regis directly pulled out a dazzling river of stars from the top of the slope, crossing the battlefield and throwing it into the enemy horses, causing quite a bit of chaos. The five Nelly of Green Dragon Knight were all in a whirlpool. Mi Lu's hands were lowered, and the water vapor condensed into two swords. Her sister Mira condensed into a long spear. As for Nelly, the azure water vapor formed a longbow in her hand. The remaining two knights were both one-handed swords of constant length.

The five Green Dragon Knight also descended the slope, crossed the battle formation, and each of them locked onto the target of the horse team and dispersed.

Nelly sprinted a hundred meters and suddenly stopped her bow. A jade arrow appeared from nowhere on the bowstring. Nelly released the bowstring and the Jade Water Strength Arrow pierced through the air. He let out a sharp howl in the air and shot at the horse knight two hundred meters away in an instant. The knight was dismounted by the arrow. Nelly turned around, her longbow laid flat, her fingers clasped together. Three powerful arrows condensed from the Jade Water longbow and shot towards him.

Although she landed at the rear, she was the first to succeed before any Green Dragon Knight, and she was the first to shoot down a few enemy knights.

At this time, Laura had already rushed over.

The leader of the horse team released the projection, and the target could not be more obvious. A golden light burst out from Laura's eyes, and her ability to summon wildness erupted, greatly increasing her strength, speed, body strength, and other basic qualities. Laura's speed increased by three points as she pulled out an afterimage and jumped high into the air. The giant sword in her hand rolled in the air as she accumulated enough strength to smash down.

The leader's chest stifled as he reached out and pressed down on the horse's back. He borrowed his strength to jump off the horse.

Laura slammed her sword into the horse. The horse was not sliced apart like the leader of the horse team had imagined. Instead, the horse exploded into a ball of meat. Even though the leader had experienced hundreds of battles, his heart skipped a beat when he saw the bloody mud splashing everywhere.

Such a wild and rough sword strike!

Laura stood up from the horse corpse fragment, her black hair fluttering in the air. She smiled faintly, her expression charming, seemingly incompatible with the battlefield. Then, he bowed slightly and dragged his sword with a tense posture. The leader didn't dare to be careless. The long saber in his hand illuminated a continuous sword light, and a spear shot out from his back, rushing towards Laura.

The experts of both sides began to clash. This battlefield was destined to be beyond the reach of ordinary warriors. Thus, the horses continued to charge forward. The enemy knights circled around the two experts and in the blink of an eye, they had already rushed down the slope to the front of the battle formation.

The Inch Fire Sagittarius immediately retreated, and the infantry soldiers pressed forward, forming a close battle formation with the Mountain King warriors in front of them. The Inch Fire Sagittarius retreated to the middle of the hillside, ignoring the horse forward and shooting towards the rear of the enemy formation. Countless knights were dismounted from their horses amidst the rumbling of gunfire. This was undoubtedly a life-threatening talisman for the forward of the horse team, urging them to break through the defensive line so that they could attack the Inch Fire Sagittarius on the hillside.

But how could the Mountain King warriors be easy to deal with?

As soon as they saw the front of the horse team arrive, the Mountain King warriors in the first row shouted in unison, their roars shocking to the heavens. Following that, everyone raised their shields and rolled around. They didn't kill the enemy, only swinging their warhammers to ruthlessly sweep the enemy horses' hooves. The row of Mountain King warriors rolled into the carriage. Immediately, a row of warhorses roared and tossed the knights off their backs. Quite a few knights were instead smashed by their own horses. The luckier ones were smashed to their hands and feet, and the unluckier ones were smashed to important parts of their bodies.

Those knights who had not been hit by the warhorse might not necessarily be lucky. They had fallen to the ground with stars in their eyes. They had just picked up their swords and stood up before they could react. The second row of Mountain King Warriors had already been pushed over. They swung their warhammers and smashed the knights who had avoided the horse calamity to the ground. They didn't even look at the results of the battle and continued to push forward. The Mountain King warriors in the third row separated left and right, bypassing the two sides of the horse team to surround them.

The infantry soldiers followed behind the Mountain King warriors. The two rows of Mountain King warriors in front of them smashed their legs and knocked down a warhorse. The dismounted knight either knocked the Mountain King warrior to death, or used a fatal saber strike on the infantry soldiers advancing from behind. Perhaps realizing that there was no advantage in charging like this, the Horse Knights dismounted from their horses and began to fight. At this moment, the Mountain King warriors tightened their defenses and shielded themselves, allowing the enemy knights to slash down with their swords.

Wait for the other party's spirit to dissipate. The Mountain King spread out. Three people in a group, interspersed into the enemy cavalry. He then surrounded a knight with three shields. After the knights chopped randomly for a while, they would often be pierced through the gap in the shield by infantry soldiers who would stab the knights in the shield array into a sieve.

The Mountain King warriors and infantry soldiers worked together like millstones to kill the knights of the horses. Standing on the hillside, Fares was able to see the whole situation clearly. The enemy knights were falling row by row under the advance of their own warriors. This reminded him of the scene of harvesting straw in autumn, which was somewhat similar to the current battle situation.

Alan looked at Fares and smiled, "Go down and do something?"

Without waiting for Fares to reply, Allen's figure flickered, and when he reappeared, he had already arrived at the enemy formation. Red King drew his sheath and a red glow lit up in the night. The saber circled around Allen, causing the people beside him to turn upside down. Blood gushed out from both their horses and humans, and they were unable to get up again, leaving a blank space that could not be more obvious.

The morale of all the warriors was greatly boosted as they rushed over from both sides of Allen and charged into the depths of the enemy formation with loud roars. At this point, it could be seen that the enemy horses were no longer in the strict formation they had before and were beginning to fall into chaos. Fares exhaled and looked at Rick. The two of them nodded and smiled. Then, they rushed down the hillside and charged into the horse caravan with the warriors.

Red King flipped through Allen's hands and didn't see any explosive flames. Just the sharpness of Red King's body caused the Horse Knights to complain endlessly. Alan strolled forward. The red light from Red King's blade flashed from time to time, and a knight would fall to the ground after being struck by a knife. He wielded his saber and stepped on a bloody path through the enemy formation. Seeing that they were about to kill the horses, an unusually dangerous feeling suddenly arose in their hearts.

Before he could think about it, Red King suddenly burst out with tens of millions of red lightning in his arms. Like a blooming flower, the saber light spread in all directions. Then, a series of clanging sounds rang out from the left side, and they collided with each other countless times in an instant with their swords and blades. Using rage as a substitute for defense, he blocked this unexpected attack. The saber light retracted and Red King swept across. Only then did Alan look in the direction of the attack, only to see a pair of cold and heartless eyes. Then, the owner of the pair of eyes began to drift backwards. The other party's figure was agile and entered the belly of a warhorse passing by, blocking Allen's line of sight.

Alan snorted and soared into the sky. He looked down on the assassin and saw him leave the horse team and flee into the distance. The man was able to hide in the horse caravan and it wasn't until he attacked that Alan noticed. His Origin Energy and concealment techniques were not simple. How could such a killer be let go? The man was petite, but judging from the curves of his body, he was a woman. Allen did not intend to show mercy because of this. Imprints appeared on his body, and his aura surged out like a torrent, causing his might to soar into the sky.

The killer in the distance seemed to have sensed that Allen's killing move was about to arrive, and he suddenly screamed. The shout clearly contained some sort of special ability, causing Alan's momentum to pause slightly as he rushed up. Then, the opponent's figure flickered, and dozens of figures appeared in the wilderness. Each figure emitted an aura of Origin Energy, making it impossible for people to distinguish whether it was true or false.

In this short moment, Ellen did not know which one was her true body. He could only lock onto the area with the most dense figures. Red King pointed at the area. He and his saber turned into a streak of vermilion-colored lightning that pierced through the area in an instant.

The figure of the assassin was constantly disillusioned on the path that was struck by this type of lightning. Alan looked at Red King. The blade was stained with blood, but the saber had failed. He raised his head and saw that there were still a dozen figures fleeing in different directions in the wilderness. He did not know which one of them was the real body of the assassin. The opponent's speed was astonishingly fast. At this moment, the figure closest to Allen was also a thousand meters away, unable to catch up.

Alan narrowed his eyes and suddenly said, "Say hello to General Slyn for me."

However, there was no response from afar, and the shadows finally disappeared into the night. Alan shrugged his shoulders. No matter who organized this attack, it could be said that he had spent a lot of money. Apart from the two hundred cavalry and a few overwhelming experts, he had also arranged for such a powerful assassin. Alan's battle with the other party was very hasty, but the assassin almost succeeded. From the looks of it, this assassin had to have the strength of an Earl at least.

An assassin who could invest the Earl's strength in an attack, Alan thought to himself, the so-called General Slyn probably wouldn't be able to do so.
