Chapter 295
Elf has a long lifespan far beyond humans.
As early as hundreds or thousands of years ago, legends about wild hunting began to spread on the mainland.
According to legend, the mounts of these ghost knights can walk in the air, carrying the knights across the night sky and spreading chaos and disasters to the earth.
Folk legends usually have exaggerated points, but the wild hunting does exist, but it is not as mysterious as the legend boasts.
Hundreds of knights wearing full-covered armor stepped out of the portal in an orderly manner, and almost no unnecessary sound was made throughout the process, fully demonstrating their well-trainedness.
The leading knight is not unfamiliar with Xin Sheng and Natiya, and Xili was chased by him for most of the northern continent.
He is the most fierce general under the command of the Wild Hunter King, Illes.
During the last fight, Xin Sheng deprived Illes of the left hand, and Arretin asked Karanhill to open the portal in time to save him.
This time I met again, Illaris's injuries have been healed under the treatment of the Elf Warlock.
As soon as he walked out of the portal, his eyes under the full-covered helmet were scandaling around fiercely.
In addition to Illes, who led the cavalry team, there was also a man in armor holding a staff to enter the world with a wild hunting army.
The top of his staff was flashing with a dark blue light, and the entire portal seemed to be maintained by him alone.
This was the first time Xin Sheng saw a mage wearing heavy plate armor. He also had a full-covering helmet similar to Illes on his head, and he could not see his appearance under the mask.
Excluding Avarak who stood with Xin Sheng and others and Gail who stayed at Tirnalya, four of the five core members of the Wild Hunter have already made clear whereabouts.
The last man is the commander of the Wild Hunter Army and the current king of Iron Al, and is known as the King of Wild Hunter Arretin Brick Glass.
"Swish!"
When the army was assembled, a tall knight in red armor finally walked out of the portal on a war horse.
"Bang!"
All the Wild Hunter Knights respectfully beat the chest to the red-armored knight, so his identity is naturally self-evident.
"The King of Wild Hunter, Arretin."
Xin Sheng and his party looked at the Red Armored Knight with a serious expression. He was the contemporary leader of Ain Al and the leader behind the command of the wild hunter to pursue Xiri.
According to the original plan, Karan Hill will continue to maintain the portal and wait for CEO Gail to send the follow-up troops over.
But the Elf's plan deviated. The portal opened by Karan Hill began to become unstable from the other side, and the dark blue energy arc inside the door flashed.
In order to avoid the portal explosion and causing space turbulence, Kalan Hill could only forcibly close the unstable space channel and temporarily disconnect from Tirnaliya.
Arretin's brows frowned slightly under his helmet: "Caran Hill, what's going on?"
Karan Hill also shook his head in a daze: "I don't know, it seems that something is wrong on the other side of the door, and the space channel suddenly lost its stability."
Since Gale had been loyally assisting Arretin before learning the truth, the King of Wild Hunter had no doubt that he was making trouble at all, thinking that he had just encountered an accident.
"Forget it, as long as we can fight quickly, we don't need more logistics troops."
Arretin pulled the reins coldly, and his mount slowly brought the master to the front of the assembled knight array.
"A step back, we can still get food on the spot."
At this moment, near the plain where wild hunting was descending, loud shouts suddenly came from a small wood.
"Bowmen, raise the bow!"
"Photography!"
"Swoosh swish swish!"
Rain-like arrows covered most of the sky. The wild hunter led by Arretin did not expect to be ambushed as soon as he landed.
However, most of the elite knights in the wild hunt were wearing heavy armor. Except for some unlucky guys who were shot into the gap in the armor, the arrows shot were difficult to cause fatal damage to them.
"Ding Ding Ding!"
After a crisp metal collision, the number of casualties from the wild hunters was not large, but their originally neat formation became a little scattered due to a sudden ambush.
Arretin, who has extensive experience in war, began to feel something was wrong.
Although the location where the Wild Hunter settled was chosen with purpose, this news was never revealed to outsiders in this world.
‘If it weren’t for the fact that there were troops passing by around, then…’
Arretin doesn't like the word "study", so he first made the worst plan in his mind.
"Calculate the formation and prepare for charge!"
Under the command of the Knight Commander Illes, the slightly chaotic Wild Hunter Knight quickly reorganized its formation.
Attacking the grove from the rear of the army, Illeris immediately directed the wild hunting back formation to change to the front formation, and set out the front arrow formation to charge towards the direction of the forest.
Hundreds of war horses in heavy armor rush together, and the entire plain began to shake in the same tune, and the roar of horse hooves resounded throughout the fields.
At this moment, the Novigre City Investment north of the Ponta River suddenly heard a loud shout.
"Cross-up arrow! Let it go!"
"boom!"
The four crossbows set up on the city wall made a harsh noise at the same time. Four thick crossbow arrows aimed at the location of the Wild Hunting Army and "smashed" them heavily in.
Yes, smash.
The crossbow's arrows are too heavy, so they do not rely solely on arrows to injure the enemy. The accompanying terrifying impact force is the biggest threat.
No matter how well-trained he is, the Wild Hunter Knight is unable to fight against this kind of range-type attack that looks like a natural disaster.
Arretin, who was protected by his subordinates in the center, was lucky to be not found by crossbow arrows, but crossbow arrows that crossed the river caused great damage to the wild hunting in Mercedes-Benz.
In the case of full speed sprinting, once someone falls in front of you, the horses that follow will inevitably be affected.
The area hit by crossbow arrows was in chaos, and the momentum of the wild hunting charge was weakened.
The Nifgad army, hiding in the forest, took this opportunity to leave the woods with complex terrain. Xin Sheng, who was prepared, specially asked Xili to ask Enshire for a large number of spearmen and equipped them with large shields to prevent collisions.
"Dong!"
Rows of large shields were in front of the queue, and a large number of spears extended from the shield gap, making the Nifgaard army, which was posing in a defensive formation, look like a porcupine full of thorns.
"Bowmen, shoot directly!"
The vanguard of the wild hunting was already in front of him, and the officer Nifgad, who was commanding the army, ordered the archers to use more threatening direct shooting.
At the same time, led by the White Rose Knights, Novigre's temple guards and the three major gangs gathered were also crossing the Ponta River, forming a forbidden force to hunt wild hunting from behind.
Seeing this scene, Arretin finally confirmed his guess.
There were traitors in the Ain El tribe who told the people of this world the exact time and place of the arrival of the wild hunt, and asked them to prepare for an ambush in advance.
"Damn it!"
Arretin gritted his teeth in anger: "It must be that traitor Avarak! And... Gale! You actually betrayed me too!"
