Chapter 152, Eager to Make Meritorious Service
PS. This chapter is 4500 words long, I wish you all a good read!
In the direction of the long sword, overcoming thorns and thorns, Ryan held up the Nemesis and killed the entire Beastman army all the way.
In the heavy rain, the Holy Grail Knight wearing the Gray Knight's psychic power armor and holding the Nemesis is simply invincible.
From Uglyhorns, Horned Beasts, to the most elite Bighorned Beasts.
From Chaos Warhounds, Razorbeasts, to Harpy and Giant Minotaur.
No creature is Ryan's all-in-one enemy. The long sword exuding light blue dazzling light repeatedly charged and killed the Beastman army. On the battlefield, if any Beastmen showed signs of wanting to organize a counterattack, Ryan immediately held the Nemesis Run unreasonably into them and thwart their fragile efforts.
Any resistance was crushed, leaving only the chaotic beastman herds and advancing human armies.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the beast king and the screaming shaman immediately gave up and joined the most elite Doomsday Bulls and Cyclops battlegroups. They quickly withdrew from the battlefield with their elite troops, leaving a few Beastman gangs behind.
"Your Excellency Ryan, don't give up on us!" A group of serfs were surrounded by beastmen, and Ryan rushed forward when he saw this: "Hold on!"
"Ah...human!" Another Beastman leader appeared in front of Ryan.
"Should die! Beast!" The goddess of nemesis was at full strength, and the sacred light blinded the eyes of the beastman leader, and then the long sword drew a wonderful arc.
With a flash of white light, the machete in the beastman's hand broke its right arm and head in two at the same time.
"Ahhh!" Ryan burst out with a wilder roar than the Beastman. This is the third Beastman leader he killed: "For the lady!"
"For the lady!" Roaring and shouting echoed on the battlefield. The Beastmen who had lost their leader and command were like stray dogs, even the serfs dared to suppress them and beat them.
Chaos, blood, and fragments filled the battlefield.
"Drink!" Julius raised his shield, the Minotaur's big ax hit the shield and was bounced off, and then the Kingdom Knight's long sword swung out, the Minotaur's thigh was injured, and it wanted to stand up wailing. Lius pierced its chest with a sword, and the sharp blade turned: "Die!"
Sweat and rain mixed together, washed away the filth, and took away the last bit of morale of the Beastmen, and they scattered for their lives.
Gabriel was still leading the army to continue the pursuit, but Suria reached out to stop him, and the female knight's long golden hair was soaked by the rain, she hurriedly said: "Your Excellency Gabriel, don't chase, the soldiers are also It's the limit."
The red-eyed Marquis realized that both the knights and the serfs had reached the limit of their physical strength, and it was not a good idea to go deep into the forest in the heavy rain to pursue the Beastman army, so Gabriel gave up the pursuit and stood there shouting : "Victory! Victory!"
"victory!"
"We won!"
"Go to hell, you beasts!"
"The gods will laugh at your cowardice!"
The soldiers roared and yelled. They stood on the pile of beastman corpses, shouting victory. The knights triumphantly told how many beasts they had killed. The serfs rummaged hard on the battlefield to get some new rewards.
In this battle, the Right Army of the Knights Road eliminated at least 2,000 Beastmen, which was already a considerable loss for the Beastman army.
Nemesis sheathed her sword, and Ryan panted. Wearing power armor and using Nemesis to fight continuously for more than two hours, his physical strength was also consumed by half, but fortunately he won in the end.
The Grail Knight raised his hammer: "Victory! We won this victory for the Lady and Britannia!"
"Victory! Victory! Victory!" Seeing the commander-in-chief speak, all the people responded loudly.
In the pouring rain, the lightning from the sky illuminated the entire battlefield. Ryan's figure in the pale lightning light, his figure standing on the pile of beastman corpses,
deeply reflected in everyone's heart.
This is the invincible Holy Grail Knight, this is the champion of the fairies of the lake.
"Clean the battlefield quickly, don't stay here!"
"yes!"
"Be careful of the undead Beastmen, remember to make up for it, we don't need prisoners!"
Ryan ordered one thing after another, and then he noticed a young man walking past him.
It was Denis, the young man who reminded him that there would be heavy rain tonight. Ryan noticed that he was holding a few heads and was about to ask the Lord Knight for a reward, so he found Gabriel and whispered a few words to the Marquis.
"Oh! Of course, of course he will be rewarded for his actions!" Gabriel nodded again and again, and the rain forced him to reply loudly: "Since Your Excellency Ryan thinks he is worthy, I have no other opinions, after all, it is Ryan Your Excellency brought us victory, haha!"
"Thank you very much, Gabriel, thank you very much." Ryan nodded his thanks.
After the brief exchange, Ryan suddenly felt that there was no rain on his head.
Looking back, it was Suria. The female knight held an umbrella for him, showing a bright smile: "Your Excellency Ryan, this is my thanks to you."
"I just want to say thank you, Miss Suria." Ryan nodded with a smile. He is wet all over now, and it doesn't matter whether he has an umbrella or not.
But he understood the female knight's intentions, if he didn't hold an umbrella, he would never be dry.
So the Holy Grail Knight began to issue orders: "Mr. Denis! Please come here!"
The battlefield fell silent instantly.
The serfs and knights all set their eyes on the young man.
Under the downpour, Denis turned around, his face was filled with shock and unstoppable ecstasy, the young man ran all the way to Ryan, his body was soaked in mud and rain: "Your Excellency Ryan?"
"Let me see your harvest?"
"Yes, yes! My baron!" Denis offered his harvest, the heads of a horned beast and three bad horned beasts.
Seeing this, Ryan nodded slowly. This young man is indeed good enough.
He made up his mind: "Mr. Denis, please kneel down!"
"Yes! Yes! My baron!" The young man realized something, and he was overjoyed, kneeling directly in the muddy water and piles of corpses.
This is it, this is it! The serfs present looked at the young man kneeling in the rain with jealous eyes.
Will it happen?
"Mr. Deni, you used your news to ensure the victory of this war, and you proved your strength with your bravery." Ryan said in a deep voice, Suria standing beside him could feel the baron's seriousness.
Deni's body was trembling violently, but he just kowtowed crazily, his face covered with mud.
"Because of your contribution, I, Lady's Champion, Knight of the Holy Grail, Baron of Jean, Ryan Malcador, officially enlist you as a sergeant, are you willing?"
"Denis is willing!" The serf was still kowtowing frantically.
So the handle of the Holy Grail Knight's war hammer lightly touched the serf's shoulder, and the ceremony was considered complete.
A dream come true.
In this dark age, war is the only hope for serfs to advance. Perhaps the death of hundreds of serfs cannot be exchanged for the promotion of one serf, but this is the only chance for serfs to change their destiny.
He got it.
Denis just wanted to hug his head and cry.
But Ryan didn't want to give him time to cry bitterly. The Holy Grail Knight ordered: "Clean the battlefield quickly, we should retreat, find a place to make a fire, and shelter from the rain! If this continues, everyone will get sick!"
"Yes!" The soldiers sped up their movements, and Deni quickly got up under Ryan's stern gaze, packing up his things while crying.
After simply cleaning the battlefield, the right army gathered all the troops. They found a forest canyon three kilometers away from the camp as a shelter from the rain. The serfs used various materials to build simple canopies and hid in the To warm up the fire inside, the knights also hid in the tents to warm up, and fought in the heavy rain wearing armor. Even in summer, many knights were shivering from the cold.
Compared with Beastmen, humans are less good at fighting in forests and heavy rain.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Ryan, Gabriel, and Julius are warming up by the fire. Ryan himself is not afraid. He has spiritual body protection, and he uses spiritual energy to dry his clothes. The three of them have already boiled water one after another. Take a bath, then drink hot soup around the fire.
After such a fierce battle, even the legendary powerhouses, Julius and Gabriel were exhausted,
After a while, Marquis Suria and her maid Sylvia, who had changed into clean dresses, also came to the two of them. The female knight had a faint fragrance after bathing, and she sat beside her brother and Ryan. .
Several people began to discuss what to do next: "We repelled another attack by the Beastmen, what's next?"
Gabriel smiled and said, "Don't worry, if it's not what I expected, the Beastmen won't come to trouble us again."
"I have dealt with creatures like beastmen for more than 20 years. I know best that after encountering such setbacks, they will not fight us again unless they have to. Obviously, this time, Lord Ryan initiated The charge has made them suffer enough, and the appearance of the Holy Grail Knight will make them feel frightened."
Ryan smiled and said, "That's right, that's how it is to fight the Beastmen, whoever persuades them will lose."
"At least for the next few days, we will be relatively peaceful. There are a lot of casualties in the troops. Fighting in the heavy rain, the knights are also exhausted. We need a day or two to rest."
So the Right Route Army decided to temporarily rest in this canyon, waiting for the rainy season to pass.
…………
When he received the news from the Marquis Gabriel, the Marquis Anci was completely sure that the right army had encountered the main force of the Beastmen.
Now, you don't have to worry about being ambushed anymore!
So on September 3rd, he and the Earl of Adelaide led the central army and the left army respectively into the forest, preparing to divide their forces to attack the beastman.
Until September 5th, the day after Ryan led the team to defeat the Beastmen, the two armies went deep into the forest.
During the march, the army always encountered a small group of Beastman war gangs. The Marquis of Anxi was still cautious. He restrained the knights not to go deep, and not to separate from the army and advance alone.
The Earl of Adelaide was different.
The Earl of Adelaide of the Left Army is the Earl of the Principality of Lyonnaise. Although he is in command of the Left Army in name, he is neither the Marquis of Anxi who has the king's coat of arms and can command the army with the kingship, nor is Ryan Such a Holy Grail Knight can rely on prestige to take over the position of commander.
The Earl of Adelaide's restraint on the left army is obviously insufficient.
When seeing a small number of beastmen appearing in front of them, the knights always yelled and kept chasing them. The beastmen seemed to be frightened and kept running away, so the knights kept chasing them.
"Forward! Forward! For the ladies! For Brittania!" Every knight hopes to attract the attention of the ladies through his heroic performance. Not intended to be bound at all.
The main force of the Beastmen is on the right side, tens of kilometers away from our left side!
At this time, if the knights don't get more credit, when will it be?
The knightly army of more than 10,000 people gradually formed a long snake formation, and the knights who were eager to make contributions rushed to the front of the entire team. There were already several kilometers away from the serf infantry regiment and the logistics personnel accompanying the army. .
At noon on September 6th, the army from the left advanced to a hilly area.
"My Earl, the Wright Forest is ahead!" A knight said to the Earl of Adelaide.
Wright Forest is a highland with vertical and horizontal river valleys, and the terrain is very undulating. Many roads pass through the canyon. There are tall and dense oak forests growing here, with few shrubs, and people and horses can walk through the forest without hindrance.
"Very good! Soldiers, let us speed up through this forest, victory is just around the corner!" Earl Adelaide was in a good mood, and he immediately issued an order.
The knights had been walking in the dense forest for several days, and finally saw a forest where they could walk on horseback, so they all got on their mounts and trotted forward in the forest.
The cheerful mood of the knights did not last long. In the afternoon, the sky suddenly turned overcast, with dark clouds, and the summer thunder exploded in the sky.
"Damn it, it's going to rain."
"Soldiers! Get out of the rain!"
"Be careful, don't get your armor wet!"
The army had to stop advancing, and each of them looked for shelter from the rain. The knights' followers hurriedly covered the knight's armor with oilcloth to properly preserve the knight's armor. The serfs looked for big trees to shelter from the rain in groups. , the entire army stretches for several kilometers.
The thunder is getting louder and the rain is getting heavier. The torrential rain is pouring over the entire Wright Forest. Under the cloudy sky, the serf soldiers and knights can only curse the ghostly weather while constantly looking for shelter from the rain. .
The forest has become a swamp.
The sound of the rain drowned out other sounds, and the muddy ground drowned out the sound of hooves.
In the darkness, countless evil creatures are approaching in the forest. After losing to Ryan, the Beastman army came to this forest in two days through the most secretive beast path in the forest.
Hundreds of three-meter-tall bighorned beasts with large axes were lining up and gradually approaching. Behind them were thousands of horned beasts and low-cornered beasts, and they approached from two directions.
Hundreds of giant minotaurs approached the army from another direction, followed by countless Chaos Warhounds, Razorbeasts and Chaos Ogres.
On a Beastman chariot, Beastmaster "Blood Horn" Maras carefully watched the formation of the knight army, and confirmed that there were no Holy Grail Knights, with a cruel and bloodthirsty smile on his face: "No ...Holy Grail! Human beings... cowardly!"
"Attack?" The big shaman "Heart Eater" Groz hissed, spewing out thick rotten smoke.
"No, wait...wait!" Maras stretched out his paw, signaling the army to continue waiting.
Until the heavy rain lasted for several hours, the entire forest was flooded by violent wind and torrential rain, and the entire forest became a vast ocean. The dark night enveloped the entire sky, and the knights were terribly miserable.
"Wait..." Maras finally saw the army he wanted to see: "Wait a little longer."
Several doomsday bulls and four-armed bull demons joined the line. They trampled past the Beastmen's formation mercilessly. A Cyclops who was several meters tall held a huge wooden stick and joined the Beastmen's army from behind.
When the Doomsday Bull and the Cyclops came to the forefront of the Beastmen's line, the Beastmaster finally waved his hands vigorously: "It's now... to attack!"
A heavy and depressing horn sounded from the depths of the forest.
"Du~ woo woo woo!!!"
In the darkness of the storm, the army of beastmen rolled in.
