Chapter 302, Caesar of the Dawn Knight
The dark flag streaked across the sky, the target was clear, and the spear-throwing skills of Rat War had not deteriorated.
It was not towards the human prince, but towards a more appropriate target, the old mage who was among the royal knights, the bad rat and the good guy.
This all happened suddenly.
The old mage reacted, and the hazy brilliance on his body lit up. It was a defensive spell, but it was a pity that the flag thrown by the rat war was the most restrained spell.
But generally speaking, no one would be so arrogant as to use the battle flag gifted by the gods by throwing a spear on the spot.
The dark flag easily melted the defensive spell on the old mage. At the critical moment, the human prince reacted and wanted to knock the old mage away.
It’s just that Rat Zhan’s spear throwing skills are very superb.
In the end, the dark flag penetrated the old mage's arm and nailed it to the ground.
Rat Zhan’s exaggerated and sharp laughter sounded in the darkness, and his scarlet eyes fell on the angry human prince.
Each of the scarred rat guards also stepped out of the darkness as the rat war turned back.
The expressions of these scarred guys were stunned, silent, and a little nervous. They held the weapons in their hands tightly, but they did not retreat.
Amidst the frenzied laughter of Rat War, the battle began again.
This battle will have no more results. The rat war will eventually recede. In the towering and dazzling city, more and more attention is paid to this area.
Simply, before there were enough enemies in front of him to force him to retreat, he overcame various obstacles and pulled out the dark flag and held it in his hands again.
The flag was stained with a bright red.
Flick randomly.
There is still some red left.
The scarlet gaze fell on the human prince not far away who was supporting an old mage who was missing an arm, with a bit of panic in his eyes. In front of him were those who kept coming to protect him without any fear of life and death. That prince's royal knight.
Putting the flag back on his back, with an exaggerated smile, from afar, Shu Zhan raised his paw, placed it horizontally in front of his neck, and made a throat-cutting motion.
The two have fought twice. They are both heroes, but the gap between them is so huge.
Rat Zhan felt that the next confrontation between the two sides would be the last, if this unwise and stupid guy still dared to appear in front of him.
Disappeared into the darkness, taking his few personal guards with him.
A farce finally ended at this moment.
So many guys turned into cold corpses, some were rat-men and some were humans.
That prince, that human hero, that prince who always had a gentle smile on his face, at this moment, showed a trace of sadness that could not be overcome.
The old mage, the old mage whose arm was penetrated by Rat Zhan with the flag of the gods, has now reached the end of his life.
In order to stay away from the rat war, his arm that was penetrated was cut off in a hurry. It was obvious that he could not bear such torture at an old age.
Well, maybe it was because the black dragon flag suppressed all the surging elements around him at the moment he was injured, canceling out all the magic that could be used, causing him to miss the best chance to save himself. It has something to do with this.
After his life came to an end, he looked at the prince in front of him with a smiling expression. He didn't give any instructions, he just said it with a smile.
"Don't be sad, our great knight."
Well, maybe for a long time the old mage has been worried about the fact that his students lack the quality of spells and are more interested in swordsmanship and martial arts. .
Maybe it was too late when I became his teacher. When he stepped into the castle, our little prince was already able to wield a standard knight's sword.
Thinking about it this way, it’s still a bit regretful.
Be it a magic knight or a magic knight, with such resentment.
The old mage died in the arms of the little prince.
This battle became the little prince's famous battle. Due to various factors, although the fight was not beautiful enough, the little prince could not resist it and the rat war was indeed repelled. .
During this period, the name of Rat War resounded almost everywhere in the human empire.
There are all kinds of names.
The knights called Rat War an unimaginably terrifying opponent, the nobles called Rat War a revelation of disaster, and the nobles called Rat War a messenger of the evil god.
No one will deny the power of Rat Zhan, even as an enemy, even for himself.
If Rat Zhan is not powerful, terrifying, and unimaginable, then why was he able to defeat the borders of the empire for a time, and the great nobles were also killed by him, and countless powerful and elite knights and mages were thrown into the battlefield. Can't bring victory.
Even for himself, Rat Zhan must be powerful and unimaginable. After all, he is an extremely dangerous monster.
At this time, the little prince undoubtedly accomplished a feat, repelling a rat man who looked like a disaster.
The most correct decision is to hold it high.
Even if it is for themselves, they have to do this. If this battle is belittled, then how miserable the little prince has been belittled, they will become even more miserable.
And at this time, the human empire really needs a hero, especially this hero who comes from the royal family and is very close to the church.
For a time, various names were added to the little prince's head.
Repel the Disaster, the Dawn Knight, and the Evil God's Bane.
Various and exaggerated titles were widely spread.
In a very short period of time, the name Caesar seemed to spread all over the country.
Yes, Knight of the Dawn, Caesar.
This is the name of the prince, the master of those royal knights, the young and dazzling knight.
He seems to have become a being similar to a savior. This is not at any cost to gain such fame.
A responsibility was placed on him by such a huge reputation.
Defeat Rat War, or kill Rat War.
Being added to this didn't seem to have any impact on him. He was originally chasing the rat war, but was that really the case?
If he fails now, then these reputations, which come from various reasons, are huge and vain, may turn into inscriptions on his tombstone, and praise and praise will turn into curses and invectives, and he will die. It doesn't take away everything, especially when you suddenly become a hero everyone knows.
Standing in the castle, a golden laurel crown was placed on his head, dropped by his father, the old emperor.
But at this moment, the smile on the face of the young prince, Knight of Dawn, Caesar, was no longer visible.
After doing all this, the old emperor looked at him with expectant eyes, encouraging him to do that thing and continue, but the young prince seemed a little absent-minded.
Leaving the castle, one by one the popes looked at him with gentle expressions. Popes from many churches of gods were willing to give him the blessings of each god. Everything was not over yet. The great nobles gave him a Pegasus, a real Pegasus. It might be a magical creature that once again appeared in this world in the surge of magic power.
Tugling the Pegasus's reins, the white Pegasus seemed to be a little resistant to him.
The royal knights have completed their assembly and appeared in front of Caesar. They are also proud of the reputation gained by their lord, even though it was not long ago that the burial of their companions had just ended.
It seemed that everything was pushing the young prince forward.
But he also knew one thing very clearly. He was no match for the rat war. The arrogant and crazy rat had real power.
The next encounter will most likely end with his death.
But he does not resist all of this, and is not even afraid. Even if all of this, these glory, cheers, all of these have never fallen, he will not be afraid.
He will definitely fight against Rat Zhan again.
Even if there is a high possibility of death.
He is indeed very young, but he has also been a hero for a long time.
It's not because of these things that just happened to him, but because of the heroes. Without these, he is still the same.
The royal family of this decadent empire does seem to have some extraordinary resilience. Whenever it is about to collapse, dazzling guys will step forward.
But Caesar was a little absent-minded. When he was about to leave the city, he pulled the reins and shook his head in dissatisfaction with the man who had just made contact with him. Caesar looked back towards the castle in the center of the city.
There, in the garden behind the castle, a funeral was taking place.
The funeral of Caesar’s teacher, the old mage.
It's a pity that Caesar can't stay at all.
The knights bolted away.
Behind him, a large number of Jihadi troops followed.
………….
The war has temporarily stayed away from this dazzling city, but it has left behind a lot of things. At least at this time, this guy is very broken.
A young mage knelt down in front of a messy field.
At this moment, it seemed that everything in the world had faded away from him.
This unlucky guy who has lost his color and seems like everything is not worth it is Arthur, the young mage who wants to save his hometown without knowing what he can do.
He is a lucky guy, but the things he studies and the fields he cares for are not lucky. Perhaps it can be called luck in misfortune.
Unfortunately, his research that had finally made some progress was mercilessly trampled by the running rat people yesterday, and all his investment during this period was completely wasted.
Fortunately, the magic lamp he set up in this field exploded again yesterday, and he had to go back to Sun City to buy the magic lamp to save his life.
It’s just that, for him, maybe it’s better to just kill him.
Sitting on the field ridge blankly, staring blankly at the field in front of me, looking at the wheat seedlings that had been trampled into the mud.
Somewhat helpless.
After sitting for a long time, the young mage stood up again.
He had only two choices, continue, or give up.
Choose to continue.
If before he gritted his teeth and did these things to save his hometown, now, now he has invested too much and has no way to retreat.
There are too many things invested in this field, money, time, energy, and he will never be willing to give up again.
Pull up the muddy robe, step into the field with bare feet, and raise the hoe in your hand high.
While he was cursing something loudly, he was cursing himself.
"Arthur, you stupid guy, you idiot!"
The cursing young mage plowed the field.
………….
After being prepared for the rampage of the Rat War, the losses of the Dark Eye tribe dropped rapidly, at the cost of giving up their control over this land.
A large number of people are converging towards cities.
Even the knights who are no longer willing to part with the land must now understand the situation clearly. Continuing to be stubborn and persistent will only bring destruction and the real loss of everything, not to mention that clinging to the land at this time will bring nothing. , after the darkness fell, nothing could grow in the earth.
A large number of people began to gather in the city.
A large number of villages, small towns, and manors were all abandoned.
All this happened because of Rat Zhan’s mad running. This guy pressed the accelerator button for everything.
Then it also made my running even more difficult.
If everything in the world is still normal, then it is already time for a new round of sowing.
It is a pity that the current world does not seem to be able to carry out normal agricultural production.
The gathering of the Nether-Eye people made the plundering of Rat War not so smooth. There was not enough loot and food.
If there is not enough loot, the greedy rat lords will not travel across mountains and rivers to him in various ways, and if there is not enough food, the attrition in the rat army will be Gradually it became more and more exaggerated.
Rat warfare requires trophies and food. These two things do not conflict under certain circumstances. In short, war and plunder are needed.
The Rat War had to slow down its pace. The most trouble-free villages, towns and manors had disappeared, so they had to focus on the slightly more troublesome human cities.
Those small human cities have become the targets of the rat war.
During this rush, three small human cities have become the targets of the rat war.
Obviously, these small cities cannot resist the ravages of the rat war, but it is more difficult to say. Even if it is a low city wall, as long as the rat people start to climb, then death is inevitable. It's hard to avoid.
Without large equipment and having to rely only on simple long ladders and battering rams, it will not be easy to attack any city. Moreover, time is tight and underground raids are not suitable.
Without the stable passage, the Big Claw Priests and Slave Rats cannot effectively replenish the army. Without these sufficiently professional guys, although the underground passage can still be carried out, it cannot be done. It's efficient and convenient enough.
In fact, the assistance that the Skaven Empire can provide to the war is indeed unimaginable.
Skaven were never meant to be solitary creatures.
