Black Knight From Blue Star

Chapter 83 Snow avalanche

Peter Clovis looked at the Silver Wing Knights station in front of him and was so happy that he could hardly close his mouth.

 In the eyes of the world, the French royal family has four major bloodlines.

 But in the opinion of the royal family members themselves, France only has three bloodlines.

 The Jeanne family?

Just a usurper.

 The other three surnames are all branches of the original royal family and are truly royal blood.

 Only the surname "Jeanna" comes from the name of a commoner girl, and the blood is full of lowliness.

How ironic it is for members of the royal family like them to have the same surname as the other three.

 After waiting for so many years, it was finally time for the Jeanna family to become weak.

 Have also found suitable opportunities.

 As long as the Silver Wing Knights are severely damaged or eliminated, the Jeanne family will be removed from this world.

 After the fall of the Jeanne family, the profits squeezed out were enough for the three of them to survive for a long, long time.

What's more, the person he hates the most, Hardy from Hexi County, also ran into the encirclement like an idiot.

The more he thought about it, the happier he became and couldn't help laughing.

After laughing for a while, he asked the adjutant next to him: "When will we continue to advance?"

“We have to wait for the Royal Guards to advance first.” The adjutant explained: “We are still within the effective range of the cavalry charge. If we give up the anti-cavalry method, we will be directly crushed and disintegrated by the cavalry.”

 “Then wait a little longer.”

Peter licked his lips. He thought Mrs. Anna was very beautiful. If Victor was captured, could he kiss her?

 At this moment, he suddenly frowned.

 Because he found that in the sky not far ahead, dark clouds were rolling and rotating.

 Even began to form a black 'smoke column', like a tornado, straight into the station of the Silver Wing Knights.

"What happened?" Peter Clovis vaguely felt that something was wrong.

The adjutant next to him said nervously: "There is a strong dark magic reaction."

 “Demons?”

“Not necessarily, it could be a dark mage, or a human professional like a dark walker who is good at dark magic!”

Peter thought this was ridiculous: "Do you think the Saints' sect, which has a very good relationship with the Light Cult, would be close to such a dark professional with an unstable temperament?"

 “It’s really impossible.”

"What's the reason? Wait!" Peter's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly thought of a possibility: "Hardy..."

 There was an extremely strong uneasiness spreading in his heart.

Then the dark clouds in the sky gradually disappeared, and the station of the Silver Wing Knights was filled with black mist.

Peter already had the idea of ​​​​escape, but his reason told him that they, not the Silver Wing Knights, had the upper hand.

“Is there any magician or priest accompanying the army?”

“The military magicians are with the Royal Guards.” The adjutant replied nervously, “We can hardly recruit military chaplains.”

Peter looked at the black edge fog gradually spreading out from the station of the Silver Wing Knights, and his mood became more and more restless.

 But fortunately, the Royal Guards next to them finally moved.

The pikemen were in front, holding high anti-cavalry spears and walking forward slowly.

They did not dare to move too fast for fear of breaking the formation. Even the pikemen would be easily overwhelmed by the heavy cavalry if they did not form a square formation.

 With the spearmen in front, it stands to reason that they can effectively suppress the cavalry charge.

 But the problem is that as soon as these spearmen moved forward a certain distance, they immediately encountered a wave of arrows.

 It fell like raindrops.

The firepower of the arrow rain this time was so fierce that it almost felt like he had to shoot all the arrows in a short period of time.

The spearmen looked desperately at the rain of arrows flying down from above their heads.

 When the arrows rained down, there were screams from the square formation, and in an instant, more than half of the spearmen were killed or injured.

Peter was stunned to see it. The spearmen of the Royal Guards were the most elite of their four infantry regiments. If they suffered too many losses, it would not be easy to suppress the Silver Wing Knights. Although there are also spearmen in the other three infantry regiments.

 But the number is not very large and cannot form a real deterrent.

At this time, the commander of the Royal Guards immediately waved the military flag and sent a signal for the spearmen to withdraw first.

 The spearmen turned and ran away wildly.

Want to escape from the range of the bow and arrow.

At this moment, the dragon gate of the Silver Wing Knights camp opened.

 In the black mist, the first thing to appear were two pairs of red eyes.

 Subsequently, with the dull sound of iron hoofs trampling on the ground, a huge black knight appeared in front of the Dragon Gate of the Silver Wing Knights.

 The armor is black, the horse armor is black, and the eyes of each man and horse are red.

　　A black ragged cloak transformed by magic power, fluttering arrogantly even when there is no wind.

 Full of a sense of oppression.

Looking at him riding his horse and walking out slowly, followed by countless white-armored heavy cavalry.

These white-armored knights spread out slowly, forming a sheet of white snow.

 At the very front of the snowfield, there is a deep black.

 Nearly everyone was silent for a while.

This kind of shocking picture will make anyone stunned when they see it.

 A piercing scream followed.

“The Knights of Silver Wings are out, all the spearmen are in formation!”

 “Quick, the spearmen are in formation.”

 Such a voice appears in every infantry regiment.

 There is no way...the heavy cavalry itself is terrifying, not to mention the fact that this is the Knights of the Silver Wings that everyone in France knows.

 “They must not be allowed to increase their speed.”

The infantry regiment has a good idea, but within more than 100 meters, the effective coverage range of bows and arrows is limited.

As soon as these spearmen began to form their formation, the archers on high places began to shoot.

Different from ordinary shield spearmen, pikemen who specialize in dealing with cavalry usually have a spear length of about three meters. With such a long spear, it is impossible to hold a shield in one hand and a spear in the other.

 The most important thing is that this kind of spearman still wears leather armor.

 It is not a heavily armored shield soldier.

 Hence bows and arrows can cause great damage to them.

 Watching the pikemen fall to the ground one after another, Peter, who was behind the infantry regiment, saw his eyebrows twitching.

“Damn it, why do the Silver Wing soldiers have such powerful long-range coverage capabilities?” He turned around and roared: “Hurry up and let the shield soldiers go up to help the spear soldiers defend against arrows.”

 His regiment and infantry immediately followed.

“The archers shoot. If you can’t shoot the archers, shoot the cavalry.”

Following Peter's order, the limited archers in the infantry regiment also began to fight back.

 The other three legions subsequently responded in the same way.

 Densely packed arrows were shot at the Silver Wing Knights.

The black knight ignored these arrows at all, letting them hit his black armor, and then bounced away, making a tinkling sound.

The knights in white armor raised their shields in their left hands and put them in front of the horses' heads to prevent arrows from hitting the horses' eyes.

They themselves lowered their heads to avoid being shot in the eyes.

 The armor they wore, except for heavy crossbows, could not be penetrated by ordinary arrows.

 After waiting in place for nearly a minute, the cavalry finally formed their formation!

 A white triangular snowfield.

 Then... there was an avalanche.
