Chapter 15 The Dark Knight is Too Mysterious!

"twitter!"

In a grove of trees, dozens of goblins let out mocking laughter.

This was solely because they had successfully lured a heavily armored knight into the encirclement.

And this heavily armored knight is none other than our Baron Azer.

Both he and Bai Ma Lian Yu were panting, having been worn down by the relentless attacks of the goblin wolf riders along the way.

It's unbelievable how well these goblins coordinate!

No, these tactics seem to be specifically designed to deal with heavily armored knights and the Tilan family!

"Damn it, why did it take me so long to realize!" Aize was annoyed and blamed himself.

His stubbornness and arrogance led him to become surrounded by goblins.

Looking around at the large number of goblins, including many heavily armored shield bearers, his advantage as a cavalryman was completely ineffective in this environment.

"Chirp!" Suddenly, a group of goblins threw out grappling hooks and vines, which actually entangled Azer's lance!

They're about to attack!

The prerequisite for the attack is to seal Azer's most powerful lance.

"Thump! Thump!" The goblin shieldmen began to gradually close the encirclement.

"Insolence!!!" Aize roared, swinging his lance and flinging the goblin controlling the chains and vines away.

He then aimed his lance at the nearest goblin shieldman and thrust it forward, but the goblin instantly blocked with his shield and retreated.

The thrust left only a shallow mark on the shield.

"Damn it, not enough distance!" Aize looked at Lianyu, who was distracted and did not coordinate with his thrust.

Lianyu looked aggrieved; she was indeed frightened and unable to cooperate with Aize.

"Relax, Lianyu." Aize stroked the white horse's mane.

At this moment, the goblin shieldmen regrouped, and with the grappling hooks thrown by the little goblins, they directly entangled the horses' hooves!

If it weren't for the armor on the horse's hooves, Lianyu would probably have gone berserk, but even so, it completely restricted her movements.

Aize regretted not bringing his longsword, and he finally understood what Kyryat meant.

Heavy cavalry has too many limitations; no matter how strong your charging ability is, you still need to consider whether others are willing to engage in a one-on-one duel in a fixed location.

These goblins completely disregard the rules of knighthood, and can outnumber the enemy in an infinitely large area, gradually wearing him down!

"My lord, don't panic!!!"

Suddenly, a knight charged towards them from afar!

"Knight Lyon has come to our aid! Those who stand in my way shall die!" Lyon, lightly armed, wielded his longsword, each strike precisely killing the goblins around him.

"Huff!" Lianyu exclaimed excitedly.

Aize immediately tightened his grip on the reins, and as the horse's hooves rose high, he roared, "Iron Cavalry Slaughter!"

The massive lance pierced through a goblin shieldman in an instant!

Aize's eyes flashed red, his fighting spirit soared, and Lianyu, inspired by its master, began to run towards Lyon.

Horse Hoof easily broke free of its restraints, and Love Jade ignored the goblins that were blocking its way, charging forward headlong.

As for the weapons that the goblins thrust at us?

Most weapons couldn't hurt them; the heavily armored knights were completely covered in armor, impenetrable, and ordinary weapons couldn't harm them in the slightest.

It was only then that Aize realized something was wrong; the number of goblins around him was still increasing, and it was probably already over a hundred!

"My lord!" Leon finally reunited with Azer, and they faced the goblins back to back.

However, they were still unable to break through. The encirclement that Lyon had torn open was quickly blocked by the newly arrived goblins, forming an even larger encirclement.

"Leon! Why are you alone? Where is everyone else?" Aize asked, his voice coming from inside the helmet somewhat muffled.

Leon swung his sword to repel the surrounding goblins. He had practiced swordsmanship before becoming a heavily armored knight, so he found it relatively easy to deal with them.

"The rest of you stay put and wait. Princess Elsie has successfully made her way to Locke City."

Lyon gripped his shield tightly and said, "My lord, I'll clear the way. You must break through quickly!"

"Wait! You'll die if you do that!" Aize realized that Leon wasn't carrying any armor and could easily be beaten to death by a group of enemies after Aize broke through!

"My lord, do not hesitate any longer. My honor is given to me by you, and I am willing to defend your interests."

“I am willing to die for you, only hoping to tell my mother that she has a son who died defending the honor of his lord.”

“Leon…” Aize looked at Leon and saw the loyalty in the other’s eyes.

Suddenly, a horn sounded, shattering the silence of the long night!

All eyes were drawn to the figure on the distant hill.

She was a knight, shrouded in an aura of darkness, and she and her horse both had scarlet eyes.

They stood in the moonlight, gazing at the war.

She was fully armed, wearing the Tilan family's imperial heavy armor, holding a horn in her left hand and a huge "Judge" lance in her right, looking down from above.

The goblins were stunned for a moment. They recognized the lance as belonging to Oni-Hero, the son of the Goblin King, and also recognized the armor as his own.

But how did he get on a horse?

Moreover, it carries an extremely dangerous and oppressive feeling!

No one could see her face clearly; her helmet was completely sealed, making it impossible to discern her features.

She stood in the moonlight, like a messenger sent by the gods!

Leon swallowed hard, feeling his hands trembling: "Dark creatures..."

He muttered something to himself, and Aize nodded in agreement.

That was the aura of dark creatures, the evil camp, the antithesis of humanity, the mortal enemy that the hero Tilan had spent his life slaying.

So... are they enemies?

Just passing by?

"The Black Knight?" Aize commented.

Indeed, he couldn't see the enemy's appearance, only their powerful sense of oppression, which reminded him of the Black Knight mentioned in Tilan's hero's autobiography.

The powerful and brutal knights of the Dark Faction defend the Demon King's honor.

"humble!"

The Black Knight spoke in the moonlight, his voice echoing across the wilderness, heavy and powerful, chilling the goblins present.

"glory!"

The goblins, long accustomed to darkness, saw such a full moon for the first time. The moonlight stung their eyes, and they didn't even have the courage to meet the gaze of the mysterious black knight!

"courage!"

The Black Knight raised her lance, her voice coming from inside her helmet, but it was impossible to tell what kind of person was underneath.

"sacrifice!"

Her voice was deep and muffled; she seemed to have deliberately altered her tone. Leon thought the Black Knight was a strong woman, while Aize thought she was an effeminate-looking man.

"mercy!"

With each word the Black Knight uttered, his horse surged forward; he was about to charge!

"Compassion!"

Aize was in a daze. He didn't understand why the Black Knight would utter these meaningless words, but every word seemed to be praising the Knight!

Praising Leon's support and his own spirit in pursuing evil? Damn it! This Black Knight is from the dark side!!!

"Devotion!"

Aize and Leon felt like they were going crazy. At this moment, they actually felt a liking for this black knight and wanted to follow her faith!

"just!"

A pungent smell of blood roused the two from their reverie. They didn't know how much time had passed, but when they looked back, they saw goblin corpses everywhere.

Hundreds of goblin corpses! Blood flowed like a river!!!
