Chapter 119 118. Noble Knight
The armor of the noble knights is much more gorgeous than that of the wandering knights.
It is also much stronger.
Because their parents should have some dignity for their children who are going to work as personal servants under the earl.
This is not only for the safety and combat effectiveness of the younger generations, but also for the comparison between noble ranks.
Therefore, on the armor of these knights, you can often see gold outlines and complicated and luxurious etching textures.
The small shield mounted on the heart is engraved with their respective family crests.
When the Earl came running in a panic, there was no need for extra command arrangements.
The first row of noble knights equipped with swords and shields automatically made way for the Earl to rush directly into the protective circle of the battle formation.
Stetha's eyes burst out with an extremely strong desire to survive when he saw the noble guard group under his command.
He also knew that the combat effectiveness of these knights was different from ordinary soldiers and wandering knights.
That’s the difference made by spending money!
He rushed towards the gap in the battle formation with joy.
But just when he passed by the sword and shield knights in the front row and was about to rush into the protective circle.
A familiar voice sounded again.
"Get down, Lord Count!"
The name in the words was not out of respect, but out of teasing.
Stetha's pupils suddenly trembled, and instinctively, he threw himself to the ground.
The next moment, there was another familiar feeling of being oppressed by wind pressure on his scalp.
Those are two warhammers, the warhammers picked up from the corpses of a group of people just now.
The speed of the projectile brought with it a shrill sound of wind.
At the moment when no one could react, they smashed directly into the opened formation!
“Pong!”*2
Solid steel collides with hollow steel! That sound makes your eardrums hurt!
The helmets of the two tall knights in the back row were dented by the flying war hammer!
Even though they have different body shapes and different positions, their attack positions are surprisingly consistent!
Blood spurted out from the breathing grille of the helmet like juice.
Not even a chance to scream.
A body weighing more than 110 kilograms even with armor, the upper body was knocked backwards by the impact, and hit the knights behind him.
The sudden weight broke the center of gravity of the knight behind him and knocked him into pieces.
Two war hammers killed two and knocked over six. Eight in total.
The formation of the noble knights dispersed.
It wasn’t the short-term change of formation under control just now, but it was really broken up!
Among the sword and shield knights in the front row, there seems to be a leader-like character.
There are several pheasant tail feathers standing on his helmet, which are beautiful and flamboyant.
At this time, he immediately raised his shield and shouted.
"Close the shield guards!"
After the sudden change in the situation, he was the first to realize the seriousness of the problem.
The battle formation is one of the decisive factors affecting the outcome of the battle.
He had never heard that the disorganized Knights could turn defeat into victory.
Now he understands.
The count who ran over was originally the opponent's means to force them to change their formation temporarily!
By taking advantage of the window period to change formations, the combat effectiveness of this group of people was at least 70% weaker in less than ten seconds!
He didn’t know who the other party was, nor why he had such great confidence.
I am confident that I can complete the formation attack on the noble guard group in less than ten seconds.
There is no point in exploring these, because our formation has already broken up.
He could only try his best to remedy the situation and try his best to send the earl to a safer rear.
"Close the shield guards! Now!"
He shouted again, waking up the stunned colleagues around him.
But it was too late to react.
"Dong dong dong!"
In the dark shadows far away in the corridor, there seemed to be some crazy beast charging and running!
Just stepping on the ground can make this building made entirely of stone tremble slightly.
The sound was rapid and terrifying. When it first sounded, it was at the other end of the corridor, but it took only a blink of an eye. Just by listening, I knew that the opponent had advanced more than ten meters!
This corridor is only twenty meters in total!
The noble knight in the tail feather helmet stared nervously at the darkness deep in the corridor with his eyes under the helmet.
He felt as if everything had slowed down.
The shouts of his colleagues who were moving towards him urgently slowed down.
Until a tall figure rushed out of the shadow!
Even in his slowed down perspective, the other party was as fast as a shadow!
But the movement of the opponent every time he steps on the ground can clearly show how terrifying the opponent's self-respect is.
Of course a person is larger than a war hammer, so the wind pressure caused by this person's sprint is stronger than the war hammer just thrown!
It was like a strong wind passing by.
The noble knight in the tail feather helmet instinctively raised his shield and stood between himself and the opponent.
But the man who was charging like a wild bear suddenly stepped on the ground in front of the shield.
The stone ground shook.
Then this guy who heard the heavy footsteps jumped straight up to a height of more than two meters!
Under the helmet, the noble knight's eyes unconsciously widened to their maximum size, and his perspective moved upward.
The man was in mid-air, his body contracted into a half-crouching posture, and the next moment.
"Bang!"
A boot with an external plate stomped directly on the noble knight's helmet from above!
Under the huge impact, the eyes of the noble knight in the helmet turned white, and his upper body fell back as if it had been broken.
The boots falling from the sky stomped on the helmet directly to the ground!
Fine dust was shaken out of the cracks in the ground, and a circle of tiny spider web-like cracks spread from where the head landed.
The helmet was under the soles of the feet, and it no longer looked like it could hold a human head.
Up to this moment, the sword and shield knights who were shouting from the knights at their feet were far from regrouping.
Lan En's running from the end of the corridor to a distance of 20 meters took less than 1.5 seconds!
Moreover, he ran out with the guy in his arms.
In a chaotic formation of noble knights, Lan En burst in after crushing a human head and threw out a glass kettle.
A sword and shield soldier of good quality raised his shield in time to block the kettle.
The glass collided with the wooden and iron-clad shield and shattered into pieces, scattering the liquid in the pot as well.
Although Stesa's manor is very large, it is just a corridor after all.
The knights in heavy armor had no place to hide.
The knight holding up his shield took a few deep breaths in his helmet, and then screamed in panic.
"It's lamp oil! Scatter! Scatter"
Before he finished shouting a few words, Lan En had already raised his left hand expressionlessly and gently pinched out the seal.
"Igni."
With a "boom", the flames adhered to the oil, staining and flowing on the knights' gorgeous armor.
Including the knights who had been lying on the ground from the beginning, eighteen of them were now covered in flames.
Now, there are five more.
The golden Quen Seal surrounds Lan En's body, and the flames cannot hurt him for a while.
Amidst the sound of steel friction, Lan En pulled out the sword from behind in the sea of fire and walked out.
Five noble knights now guard Count Stesa in the middle.
The will seems to be strong, but those iron boots rub back and forth hesitantly.
"Knights, adjust your breathing. You are very confused right now."
The sword blade as clear as water hung by his side, Lan En calmly approached the remaining five people.
The fire was burning behind him, and the people trapped in the armor in the fire were scratching, bumping, wailing, and roaring like crazy.
Lan En's front face was completely dark against the firelight, with only his cat eyes shining slightly.
"Have you adjusted it? Then I will attack."
There was only one way up the stairs behind them. The five noble knights swallowed their saliva and looked at each other.
They all cheered with war cries and charged towards Lan En
