Chapter 347. The Death Knight is approaching

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

At the top of the Consulate, the Vicchian marksmen chanted.

They quickly guarded the surroundings, holding longbows, drawing out the cone-headed arrows equipped in the quiver, and looked at the surrounding situation with cold faces, but more people still bent their bows and arrows, looking at the north side of the castle with great solemnity.

Just at the top of the rolling sand dunes on the north side, a scattered black dot was running wildly.

on the city walls.

The veteran Swadia crossbowman quickly came to his position.

Including the newly recruited Vekia archers, they all took up the towering arrow towers and took their positions.

The gates on the southeast side and the gates of the urn were also half-hidden, and as many civilians and construction teams retreated to the interior of the castle, these sturdy gates made of fine iron and high-quality wood were also slammed shut.

And on the outer urn city and the inner city wall, many civilians have also gathered.

If the situation is urgent.

The bell tower inside the castle will ring an armed bell.

These civilians, both men and women, were transformed into Swadia militiamen, dressed in iron-clad armor, armed with crossbows, carrying wooden shields and spears, and carrying quivers and maces around their waists.

At present, the population of "Drehem" Castle is close to 3,000, which means 3,000 militiamen!

It's not very useful, though.

But in the battle to defend the city, it can be alone!

At least on the city wall, there are still heavy bricks there, including stout logs, these are the stones and logs used to defend the city, and even the most elite level 5 warriors can be directly reimbursed if they are smashed.

As long as the defending troops work together, they can compete with tens of thousands of troops.

"It's not an enemy attack!"

Bhandak was equally quick to return to the top of the Consulate.

He mastered the power of the underworld at an extremely fast speed, running with all his might, and it only took more than ten seconds for him to reach the top floor at the bottom, and the red light flashed in his eyes, like the eyes of a demon, but his voice was extremely solemn: "It's our heavy cavalry!" ”

"Heavy cavalry?"

Kant's eyes were filled with consternation.

Turning his head to look at the north side, his eyes full of solemnity instantly shrank.

In the middle of the continuous sand dunes, more than 300 heavy cavalry with men and horses and fully armed were getting closer and closer, although they were scattered, they were extremely orderly, but even so, it was still obvious that they were in fear of retreating.

"It's our comrades-in-arms! They're being hunted down! ”

There were exclamations of exclamation from the city walls, especially the crossbowmen, who roared angrily.

Including Kant's side.

Even those royal knights were slightly in turmoil, gritting their teeth in righteous indignation.

Because of the more than 300 heavy cavalry underneath...

It's the Svadia heavy cavalry!

"What's going on?"

Kant frowned, because these Swadian heavy cavalry were basically the heavy cavalry troops he had sent to the salt mine post to guard the slaves and at the same time station to prevent the undead.

At the same time, he also received information from the desert bandits that the 500-strong heavy cavalry force had fallen near the salt mine station.

It may be possible to be surrounded and annihilated by the death knights and skeleton cavalry of the undead.

"Indeed, they are."

Kant spoke slowly, affirming the identity of the approaching group of cavalrymen.

As the distance of those cavalry got closer and closer, the pattern of a golden lion on a red background was extremely obvious on the linen shirt on his chest and the iris shield on his left arm, which was indeed the Swadia heavy cavalry he had sent past.

It's just that there were originally 500 people, but now there are only more than 300 people left, which shows how heavy the casualties are in the middle of the breakthrough!

"That's not right!"

But the Vikia marksman did not let his guard down, and looked at the north side even more cautiously.

Especially at the small gate connecting the high-level watchtower and the top floor of the Consulate Hall, a swift Vekian archer rushed out, pointed to the sand dunes in the distance and reported loudly to Kant: "There are still chasing troops behind our heavy cavalry, according to the observation of the lookout, the number of enemies is 2000+, all of them are cavalry!" ”

"Pass the order and get ready for battle!"

Kant did not hesitate.

waved his hand directly, and also gave an order to Bandak next to him: "Bandak, lead the royal knights and Swadia knights to form a receiving force, and lead the retreating heavy cavalry to quickly enter the castle." ”

"Yes!" Bandak answered, along with the royal knights, and turned to leave.

"Wait." But Kant paused.

After hesitating for a moment, he continued: "Let all these cavalry enter the urn city and wait, and then enter the castle after the review is completed and there is no abnormality." ”

"I understand." Bandak nodded.

"It's coming so soon."

Kant exhaled softly.

Staring at the sand dunes in the distance on the north side, a black oppressive cavalry unit had already appeared there, scattered even more, holding swords, guns and shields, wearing black armor, and many of them could be seen to be miserable.

The spell of the undead brought back to life the corpses of cavalrymen who had been dead for countless years and re-transformed them into cavalry.

Death Knight.

And also... Skeleton Cavalry!

Despite the distance, Kant's extraordinary power can be magnified several times when applied to the two eyes.

He could clearly see that the armor that looked black was actually black rust due to the precipitation of time, and the miserable white was the skeleton of the skeleton, and the swords, guns and shields in his hands were even more tattered.

But the dark blue soul fire peculiar to the undead flickered in the hollow eye sockets of the tattered helmet.

Including the skeleton under the crotch, a skeleton war horse wearing a tattered burqa.

The dark blue soul fire flickered.

It adds a bit of chill to the bone, a chill from the depths of the soul, to the living to the dead!

However, the undead cavalry did not pursue deeply, but only stopped advancing at the outermost sand dunes, covered in black pressure, weapons in hand, flashing the dark blue soul fire in their eyes, standing still, as if waiting.

And the more than 300 Swadian heavy cavalry, also returned to the sentry oasis under the response of the royal knights and knights, and directly entered the urn city that had been basically completed, panting one by one, taking off their helmets, their faces were flushed, their heads were covered with cold sweat, and their faces were also full of joy.

Apparently they returned, finally relieved by the tension of being hunted down.

A faint golden light enveloped them.

Just overhead, the huge solar disk slowly emitted golden rays, falling like a drizzle on the land of the sentry oasis, and at the same time, a faint array of lines formed in the void, covering the surrounding 10 hectares.

The undead cavalry were just outside the area shrouded in golden light.

It seems that this is exactly what happened.

The Death Knights and Skeleton Cavalry, who exuded a strong negative energy and an evil aura, did not continue to pursue and kill the Svadian heavy cavalry who had retreated.

The area shrouded by the solar disc containing positive energy is indeed a forbidden area that these undead creatures cannot set foot in!
