"go ahead!"

"keep going!"

In front of the Knights of the Holy Iron Cable, a thin old man with a slightly hunched figure was riding on the back of a pony for plowing fields. At this time, wearing an old armor that he had turned out from somewhere, he was funnyly leading the team to the depths of the dense forest in front of the group of knights, pretending to be very majestic, just as if he was the leader of these knights.

“It’s not far ahead!”

"Everything is fast!"

"look!"

"It's starting to fog here, and the place we are going is right in front!"

Then, as he walked, he saw that the people behind him were following him slowly, and he came back to his senses and urged him on the back of the horse.

That's right!

He was the guide that the old priest Hops found in the village. He was a tragic old man who volunteered because his family had been persecuted by the elves of the Fog Valley and was not afraid of death and was willing to take this group of knights of the Holy Iron-Cable Knights who were also not afraid of death to bring the knights of the "Fog Valley".

“…”

Yasang, the deputy captain of the Knights, and the strong man with a fat face and fierce appearance, did not respond to the old man's call, but looked at the left and right first, then looked at the faint mist that was spreading around the dense forest and frowned.

"Selphigao..."

"Be careful!"

"It seems something is wrong here..."

"I smelled an ominous breath!"

"Look at the fog..."

The shrubs and big trees outside were very dense, but when they came here, they gradually withered, and the shape of the trees was not right. In addition, it was already afternoon, but there was still fog everywhere, which made Yasan feel a little uneasy and nervous.

"An unknown breath?"

"Stop twitching!"

"That's just some ordinary fog. Maybe it's because it's a valley?"

Selpigao, the young knight and clerk of the Knights, seemed a little distracted by Asan's concerns.

"Hello!"

"Uncle, the road here is not suitable for horse movements. You'd better be slower?"

"Be careful not to fall!"

Then, after refuting his companion casually, Selpigao kindly reminded the old man who was shouting excitedly in front of him.

However!

“!!”

"Ouch!!"

It would be fine if he didn't remind him. As expected, the other party had just walked far away and finally fell to the ground with the pony and let out a tragic howl.

"Hahaha!"

"Look!"

"I just said that this kind of terrain is very unfavorable to the cavalry, and he still runs so fast!"

Seeing this, Selpigao, who was worried about the other party just now, burst into laughter without any mercy, with a gloating look on his face.

"Hey! Hey!"

"Uncle Seebeck, are you okay?"

"Didn't fall?"

Fortunately, the strong man Yasang on the other side, with a strong face full of flesh and fierce appearance, was a kind-hearted person. After seeing the guide stumble, he was the first to turn over and dismount and go forward to help the other party and condolence.

"ah!"

"It's okay! It's okay!"

"rest assured!"

"I will definitely bring all the knights to the destination!"

"That mist valley is not far ahead!"

After being helped up, the old farmer Sebek was a little flattered and quickly waved his hands as if he was indifferent. After saying that, he planned to continue to get on the horse and continue to lead the way.

"alright."

"Just end here!"

“There are all!”

"dismount!!"

However, without waiting for the old man to show off his strength to continue to get on the horse, the female leader of the Knights, Farnasse, directly from her white war horse, which looked like a unicorn horse in mythology, turned over and jumped down lightly and shouted loudly at the team behind her.

"Send the order!"

"The sergeant team and the horses were all left to stand by!"

"The knights walk lightly into the mist valley!"

"implement!!"

In this rugged and foggy forest, the speed of riding a horse is probably far less than that of walking. Moreover, this terrain can easily hurt the war horses and it is seriously unfavorable to combat. If you continue to ride, it will definitely be a loss. Therefore, the female leader simply issued an order to abandon the horse and walk.

"yes!"

"Abide by the order!"

"quick!"

"dismount!"

"Let the attendants find an open place to settle the war horses!"

“Make a mark!”

"Be careful!!"

Soon, with the order issued, the elite Knights of the Iron-Cable Knights dismounted and quickly prepared and worked hard, preparing to bring only their own weapons and a small amount of water and food in order to minimize the load.

From this we can see that they are worthy of being the elites of the Dharma King Hall. The uniform, organized and efficient execution efficiency are much stronger than the ordinary lazy lord army.

‘!!’

‘Wow!!!’

Suddenly, just as the female team leader Farnasse was about to complete the team and continue to set off, unexpectedly, a shrill scream rang out not far away.

"Group, leader!"

“Yes, yes…”

Immediately afterwards, she saw a knight from the Knights who seemed to want to release the water, holding his pants, staggering towards the side where the leaders were, and at the same time stretched out his hand to gesture something, but he couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.

“!!”

"Walk!"

"Come and take a look!"

Seeing this, Farnasse frowned slightly. Although she was a little displeased, she still did not blame her much. She just waved her hand coldly, and then took a few followers and knights around her and jogged towards the same mist not far away.

“!!”

"This is?!"

Then, not long after, when she arrived at the place where the knight had just released the water, she and the followers took a breath and subconsciously reached out to cover their mouths and noses.

Because, they all saw that in front of this valley filled with mist and twisted dense forest, there were dense layers of broken corpses standing upside down?

They were fresh and didn't seem to die for long, but almost none of them were intact, as if they were shattered by bombardment of the kind of shells used for siege!

Looking around, on the hundreds of square meters of ground, all kinds of broken limbs, intestines, and physical fragments are scattered and hung everywhere!

The blood had solidified a thick layer on the ground, and it had formed a pool of blood.

The terrifying and shocking scene, just looking at it, makes people feel creepy trembling and fear.

even……

Even the elites of the Holy Iron Cable Knights who were surrounding them are no exception!

“…”

“…”

“…”

Seeing this, Farnase and several other senior leaders of the Knights could not speak a word for a long time.

After all, in this situation, it is completely different from the battlefield where they go to battle to kill enemies and corpses everywhere!
