Freya bit her lip as the wolves converged in the canyon and then suddenly dispersed, revealing something in the center. It was several wolf corpses stacked on top of each other, and the snow was littered with traces of fierce battles, which had been arranged in advance to ensure that Yuhee could get into their best range.

After You Xi found these corpses, he really walked over slowly. He was surrounded by four giant wolves, the size of heavy war horses, the ghosts of the winter lands that often appear in folk tales—the son of Isis, the Pale Son, who was far more terrible than the winter wolf in this forest.

"Are you sure?" Brende saw that You Xi was really squatting down next to those wolf corpses and began to examine the corpses, and he breathed a sigh of relief and asked sideways.

"You can try." Rollo replied.

After a brief Q&A, the sword-folding knights made the final adjustments, taking a deep breath, holding their breath to keep the hand holding the bow steady, and then slowly pushing the bow to the string. The bow body makes a creaking sound, most of the bows suitable for the gold level of strength are magic bows, only compound bows that have been treated by the laws of 'strength' and 'toughening' can withstand a hundred and ten times the strength of ordinary people, but even so, every time the bow is opened, it is still equivalent to the loss of the bow's service life - this loss is irreversible - in Eruin, the magic bow on the market can even buy one for 17,000 tors, even if it is from the hand of a master in a workshop directly under the royal family, Most of these bows do not last more than a hundred shots, and each shot is almost equivalent to squandering a gold coin as heavy as a bow.

The wind had not yet risen in the canyon, and Yuxi was still unaware, but it was as if a natural sensitivity to danger made him raise his head, and his subtle movement seemed to touch the tense nerves of the Cruz, and little Pelo looked at Freya, who nodded slightly.

Freya exhaled softly, as if to calm herself down.

"Shoot!" Almost at the same moment, Nimesis gave the order to attack in a cold voice.

The archers loosened their bowstrings, and the force attached to the arrows was so great that they made a deafening buzz as they came out of the strings. Where it passed. The air flow was agitated, and from a distance, it looked like the space was shaking.

The first arrow passed over the flanks of the winter wolves, and the whirlwind that it brought up actually blew the wolves running wildly below, and You Xi didn't have time to react under such an attack, he had just turned his head, and the arrow had already pounced in front of him, crossing a distance of hundreds of yards. Everyone could even see his frightened and incredulous face.

The giant wolf beside him saved his life, and the huge Pale Son leaped to his feet to block the arrow's path, and then was shot in the back by an arrow, and the huge impact pierced it directly into the snow, splashing a cloud of snow.

A rain of arrows then fell.

The four pale sons beside You Xi were shot into hedgehogs in an instant, but they at least bought time for the marquis. Let him finally react to what happened.

He never dreamed that those lost souls of the Cruz knights would dare to take the initiative to attack him. And by the time he realized it, everything had become irretrievable.

You Xi immediately lay down, and a flying pounce hid in the winter wolves, and he tried to retreat to the other side of the canyon with the help of cover to find a shelter spot. But unfortunately, the ambush site chosen for him by Pelo Jr. and Nimesis was flat all around, and the small group of winter wolves that had surrounded him before quickly fell one by one, and many more winter wolves were still far away on the flanks or had already chased into the canyon.

You Xi began to regret that he probably shouldn't have been so aggressive. But it's too late to say anything now. But when the wolves gradually become thinner. An arrow hit him, and he screamed. Falling into the snow, the arrow pierced his left calf and pinned him to the ground.

If he was still alive, he must be sweating profusely at the moment, but one of the benefits of the undead is the loss of pain. You Xi hurriedly gritted his teeth and turned around, pulled out the saber at his waist, and tried to cut off the long-feathered arrow that pinned him to the ground with one sword.

At the same time, the wolves in the canyon finally spotted the attacker, and the first wolf in the pack let out one howl after another, and the wolves that were a little closer had begun to turn around and pounce on the Cruz sword knights above the cliff.

The winter wolves, which were a little closer, rushed to Marquis Youxi, trying to protect their master.

"Brende, Alaya, lead the team to stop!" Freya stared at the winter wolves that roamed the mountains, swooping down on their positions like an avalanche of reverse, a scene so similar to what she had seen in Ampesel, as if it had happened yesterday. Valkyrie clenched the sword in her hand, and it was impossible to say that she was not nervous, after all, she was only a knight captain at that time, and at this moment, her every order decided whether everyone present would die here or escape.

She gripped it so hard that her knuckles turned white from the loss of blood, but she didn't notice it. Thousands of winter wolves were no more than a hundred feet away from them, and it only took two breaths to burst in front of them at the speed of winter wolves, and the snowy waves of wolves, each of them grinning and showing its flickering fangs were clearly visible.

"Rollo, get ready for the second round of shooting." Freya took a deep breath and commanded as calmly as she could.

Rollo licked his lips, even for the Cruz, such a big scene was not seen very often, not to mention that they were just 'newbies'. The battle in front of him surpassed even the one that had broken through the previous night, and the momentum of the wolves as they charged in the open terrain beyond the forest was anything but equal.

Including him, a thin layer of oil sweat oozed from the palms of everyone's hands.

However, the usual training worked, and the young knights of the Cruz raised their longbows in unison, and at the moment when they opened their bows, the knights in the back row had already picked up their shields and swords in their hands, and they were twenty paces away from the line and lined up a thin blocking formation, led by Brende and Alaya.

The wolves were no more than fifty feet away.

The knights lowered their shields and plunged their pointed ends into the snow, lowering their weights and preparing for the impact.

Rollo squinted his eyes and raised his longbow a little higher, his aiming line kept high, past a line of rushing wolves, and the cluster of arrows that flashed cold light was still aimed at the bottom of the canyon.

"Put!"

Nimesis waited until all the archers were adjusted, and then immediately gave the order.

At the same time, You Xi finally turned around and cut the arrow stuck in his left leg with a sword. Although the undead do not feel pain. But that doesn't mean he won't be troubled by the pain. The passage of soul power almost made him gasp, and after he did this, he did not rush to escape, but dropped the long sword in his hand with some dejection, turned over with difficulty, and then looked at the sky.

You Xi's pale eyes flashed with a gray light, and there was a look inside. It's both madness and despair.

In his field of vision, above the sky, arrows rained down.

He opened his mouth, revealing Bai Sensen's teeth, as if to utter a final cry. But there was not a single sound. Almost instantly, more than twenty arrows pinned him to the ground alongside the winter wolf who had just arrived.

You Xi tilted his head and held on for the last moment before lying down dejectedly.

……

The winter wolf made a dull sound when it collided with the knight's shield, the impact of these beasts was so great, if it was an ordinary human soldier, I am afraid that it would have been lifted away at this moment. When the Duke of Longblade fought against the tundra wolves of large-scale operations on the plateau, he often needed to line his soldiers into a large phalanx of seven columns. Far beyond the battle against the heavy cavalry.

But the Winter Wolves are also facing extraordinary opponents. The dozens of Cruz knights in the front row, all of whom had the strength of the Golden Rank, were in front of them. There is not much difference between a winter wolf and a normal wolf.

The knights used their shields to lift away the wolves that collided with them, or crucified them in the snow with their swords, then took a slight step back and waited for a second attack. Unlike Alaya, who slashed and slaughtered, Brende was carefully calculating the distance they would have to retreat, according to his calculations, they would have to hold out for at least five rounds of attacks, and before that, they had to buy as much time as possible.

But after the third impact, the knights of the Cruz suddenly felt that their vision was empty, and the repulsed winter wolves did not rush up again.

"What's going on?" Everyone subconsciously looked into the canyon below, and in the mist, countless white beasts in the distance were scattering and fleeing.

It was only at this moment that a cheer came from the shooters behind.

Little Pelo, Nimesis, and Freya all looked nervously at the place where You Xi fell, because no one could say whether the Winter Wolf would leave after You Xi died. The only thing they could hope for was that, at least after losing its commander, the Winter Wolf would only be left with the instincts of a beast, at least not in the same orderly manner as an army.

It's impossible to fight your way out of an army, but not necessarily if the opponent is just a bunch of beasts acting on instinct.

But the truth was far better than they imagined, at the moment of You Xi's fall, although there were still a few winter wolves still attacking them, but farther away, the wolves there had begun to show signs of hesitation and scattering.

The knights of Cruz, armed with longbows, were the first to notice this sign and couldn't help but cheer in unison.

Immediately, little Pelo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he turned around, half relaxed, half happy to congratulate Freya and said, "It seems that we made the right bet, Commander." ”

Freya just nodded slightly, You Xi was already dead, everyone saw it with their own eyes. The wolves are also breaking down, and although a few are still haunting them, they are not at all a threat compared to the population.

But even so, she was still a little uneasy.

There was only one problem, and the premise of their ambush was if the silver monster wasn't with You Xi. What if that monster lurks left and right? No one can say for sure.

Sensing her junior's apprehension, Nimesis glanced back at the latter and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I'm a little worried." Freya replied, "Sister Nimesis, I think we'd better get out of here as much as we can." ”

"Are you worried about that monster?" Little Pelo also remembered this question: "But if it is here, it will not let You Xi be ambushed by us, right?" ”

"I don't know," Freya shook her head slightly, "but I have a hunch that something is wrong." ”

"You're too nervous, Commander." Little Pelo shook his head, he had received professional militarized training, and for a soldier, a hunch was probably the most unbelievable thing.

But Nimesis judged the opposite of him, and the female knight frowned and asked, "Premonition?" Did you miss something? ”

Freya was slightly stunned, she looked at her senior sister with some surprise, she didn't expect the other party to know what she was thinking so well. That's how it felt, she always felt like she was missing something.

Nimesis stared at her, not speaking. But if Brando is here, he will be doubly vigilant.

Valkyrie's premonition, in his world, is a very famous rumor.
