Chapter 334 Kingdom War (VI)

"Why would the orc warriors chase us?"

"I have observed for a long time that after the orcs left the royal city, they never woke up in the morning. They are very sleepy."

Fletcher's face changed drastically. He was not afraid of the coming of war and killing, but the problem was that there were several nobles and Queen Leta in this team, and he would never allow any accidents to happen.

It’s okay for those nobles. When they were in the Leta family, the relationship between the nobles and them was not very good. But if something happened to Queen Leta, Fletcher didn’t know whether his death would be enough to repay the knight’s loyalty and dignity.

"Hurry! Go!"

"As, you and I will lead the army to stop the orc warriors."

More than a hundred knights turned their horses around and rushed in the direction they came from. Their actions caused panic in the team.

"What happened? Could it be that the orc army is catching up with us?"

"Go, go, go quickly."

The nobles roared and the carriages moved quickly, but the carriages could only move quickly if they moved on the road. In order to avoid the warthog orcs, how could they choose a wide road?

The carriage was shaking and Queen Leta's face was pale. It was not comfortable to sit in the carriage at this time.

"What happened?"

"My queen, it's bad. The orc army is catching up with us."

The maid returned and cried.

"It's okay. It will be okay. Knight Fletcher will stop them."

Queen Leta said to the maid to comfort her, but in fact even her own face became flustered.

"Damn the royal family! They actually let the orcs invade to the Dam River. They are not worthy of being the king of Andara."

Queen Leta heard the nobles outside shouting and cursing. They did have the courage to do so, but now the nobles, especially those who had been invaded by orcs, had no good feelings towards the royal family.

She could only pretend not to hear, but the nobles seemed to realize that they were too close to her, so they did not dare to say anything more. This noble was not only the queen of Andara, but also the sister of the only grand duke in the kingdom.

"Queen, has the army sent by Grand Duke Leta to rescue you not arrived yet?"

The maid couldn't help but ask, after the decline of the royal family, it seemed that in the present Andara Kingdom, only the family of Grand Duke Leta had the strength and status to restore order.

"I'm afraid my brother didn't send anyone at all."

Queen Leta was filled with rage.

"He now wishes there would be more chaos in the kingdom. That way, the nobles of the kingdom would need him even more. He wants to become the next Grand Duke McReynolds of the Andara Kingdom, and under the king's orders, he can command the status and power of all the nobles."

"If he had sent troops earlier, the orcs would never have been able to break into the royal city."

The maid raised her head cautiously, looked at the queen and whispered:

"But before, you felt that too few people from the Andara royal family died, and you wished they would all die."

Queen Leta was stunned for a moment before she reacted.

"That's right. How could this happen? It's all my fault that I don't have a talent for magic. My father also doesn't allow me to practice Knight's Breathing. If I were a legend, we wouldn't have to run away. We could just live in the royal city and no one would bully us."

"From now on, there will be no legend as young as you in Norris Continent."

Suddenly, there was a bang.

"My queen, the wheel is broken. I'm afraid you'll have to get down and ride."

A knight came to the carriage, and Queen Leta came out with the help of her maid. She saw that the wheel of the carriage was stuck in the crevice and broke. A knight came over holding the reins and lowered his head in guilt.

"Where are Knight Fletcher and the others?"

"Lord Fletcher and his men are still trying to stop the orc warriors from pursuing us. Those orcs are no longer ordinary orcs, but followers of Dusk. Lord Fletcher and his men..."

The knight lowered his head, he was not sure if those people could come back.

"The letter we sent to the Earl of Southern Canterlot should have been delivered. The Earl should send a Sky Knight or a Sanctuary Knight to pick you up. You will be safe then."

"Count Canterlot, I remember him, the master of the Kingdom's Death Legion, a powerful count."

Queen Leta said, but the Knight then added that it was not so optimistic.

"The Death Legion of Count Canterlot lost one-third of its knights in the previous war. This is also the most intense battlefield for the orcs to attack the southern nobles. More than 20,000 warthog orc troops have gathered there."

"Can he still send someone?"

Queen Leta mounted her warhorse, and the knight in front ran, pulling the reins, fearing that the horse would lose control and throw the queen off.

"Earl Canterlot is different from those two princes. In his war with the orcs, he has the support of some nobles. Those nobles have not yet sworn allegiance to any of the princes. Therefore, there are many powerful extraordinary knights on that battlefield. It is impossible for the nobles to abandon you."

The knight had a good background, he was a member of a minor noble family around Grand Duke Leta's family. He became a knight of Grand Duke Leta's family, so he knew more than other knights, which was also the qualification for him to be close to the queen.

"With the strength of the Sky or Sanctuary Knights, they will be able to find a route to us in three hours at most. By then..."

The knight did not say anything, but instantly drew out his sword, holding the hilt tightly with both hands, and turned his head to look at the sky.

At that moment just now, he saw a shadow on the ground.

Floating in the sky, casting a shadow on the ground.

"Dusk... Dependents."

The knight's face was pale. In the sky behind him, there were more than a dozen huge Dusk followers sublimated from Warthog orcs, which were covered in armor and had wings on their backs and facing forward on their right ribs.

In front of them, a harpy looked down and laughed sinisterly.

"That delicious viscount was right. The nobles of the Andara Kingdom didn't take the queen away. I really found a big fish."

"As long as I capture the queen and bring you back, I will let you exercise the power of the king to declare Hernan the king of the Andara Kingdom. Then I will definitely receive the reward from the great dusk leader, the honorable Surtur, and I will become the first legend in my tribe."

"Hahahaha, after flying for so long, I finally found you."

The harpy swooped down, its sharp claws emitting a cold light, making the knights below extremely nervous. They had seen each other before. The powerful harpy easily killed the powerful knights in the attack and defense of the royal city.

"Escort the queen away, and everyone else stop the monster in the sky!"

The knight roared, turned around and was about to slap the warhorse's butt, but just as he turned around, the sharp claws behind him forced him to roll to the ground. He was extremely angry that his behavior prevented the queen from leaving immediately, and the knight turned around and was about to chop at the harpy.

"You're too slow!"

The sharp claws fell on the knight's armor, leaving three claw marks that penetrated the metal armor. Blood flowed out, and the harpy no longer hesitated and dropped her claws on the knight again.

At this moment, a feather arrow shot from a distance. Its extreme sharpness made the banshee roar and flip several times in the air, and then she screamed ferociously towards several war horses exposed in the distance.

Sharp arrows forced the dusk followers in the sky to fall. Their bone wings could not support their fast and large movements.

The crowd looked towards the south, where ten fully armed cavalrymen appeared without anyone noticing. They were standing there quietly, with even their horses standing still. The ten men drew their bows and drew their arrows on their horses, suppressing the space of the Dusk's followers little by little.

"Human Knight!"

The harpy roared, and her scream could freeze the soul, but it didn't seem to have much effect on the ten knights in the distance. Seeing this, the harpy glanced at the soldiers who had surrounded the queen, and the next moment led the dusk followers behind her to charge towards the ten people in the distance.

She was very clear about the threat. The threat posed by these ten knights was far greater than that posed by the few soldiers around the queen. If she dealt with them, the queen would be hers.

"Damn humans!"

The followers of Dusk charged forward. They were very fast and the bone armor on their bodies could defend against arrows. Seeing them charging towards them, the ten knights on the ground put away their longbows and drew out their lances without haste.

"charge!"

As the leader let out a low roar without any extra emotions from under his visor, the war horses of the ten knights slowly ran forward. In a few blinks of an eye, the horses were already galloping wildly, and the wasteland was raising dust under the iron hooves of the horses. The charge of the ten people brought an unparalleled momentum and pressure.

At this moment, the entire sky was pressing towards the Dusk Chronicles. There was some fear in the eyes of the harpies, and they stopped their speed for a moment, but the Dusk Chronicles warriors had no fear. They rushed forward until the sharp lances pierced through their bodies, lifted them up high, and then torn into pieces amid the roars of the knights. They finally showed fear at their dying moments.

How could it be... so powerful.

"kill!"

The lance was too heavy, so the knights had already drawn their long swords when they approached the harpy. Under the sunlight, the swords shone with the cold light of the North. The sharp swords made the harpy have no idea of ​​fighting them head-on, because just a moment ago, one section of her claws had been broken. She quickly took off into the air, and she was invincible in the sky.

With an unwilling look at the protected queen, the harpy flew away to the north.

"Thank you, are you the reinforcements sent by Count Canterlot?"

The knight said excitedly that the queen was almost captured under their protection. This was a great redemption for the knights as they protected the dignity of these knights.

"The Count of Canterlot?"

The knight shook his head, lifted his visor and took off his helmet.

"I am Michaela, the knight squire of Baron Ryan, the commander of the Imperial Judgment Legion and the Frozen Territory of the Northern Wind Province. These are Baron Ryan's knight squires. We have been ordered to assist Baron Isaac in resisting the invading orc army. We are here to try to help Viscount Harry take back his territory. We are looking for the whereabouts of the main force of the orc army so as to refer to how to attack the orc army left behind in Viscount Harry's territory."

"I didn't expect to find you."

After saying this, he looked at Queen Leta among the crowd of knights. His eyes were dazed for a moment, then he lowered his head. This person must be of noble status.

"This is Queen Leta, Her Royal Highness the Queen of the former King of the Andara Kingdom."

The knight said, and Michaela was shocked. She was actually a queen. Why was she so embarrassed? Wasn't she protected by the royal family or the nobility?

"The road we are coming from is safe, you can follow us..."

Before Michaela could finish his words, the slight vibration of the stones on the ground made him look up, then he jumped onto his horse, put on his helmet and visor in one go, and instantly turned into the majestic and solemn knight again.

"preparation!"

Ten knights are not many, and if there wasn’t a queen here they might have simply run away, but now they might be in some trouble.

"You guard the queen, and the rest of you, form a defensive formation!"

Michaela shouted loudly, looking at the north where dozens of cavalrymen were galloping towards this side. Behind them was an orc army of at least two thousand people.

In the sky, the harpy appeared again, screaming sharply.

"The Queen is over there, catch them!"

The human cavalry arrived soon, and Knight Fletcher's face changed drastically when he saw the queen riding on the horse.

"Queen, please go."

After saying this, he turned around with the army of only fifty people left behind him.

"Everyone, form a defensive formation, and do not allow them to touch the queen!"

Fletcher's face turned pale, and so did all the knights. They had lost more than half of their men while covering the retreat in the north, and when they saw the harpies flying towards them, they could not help but retreat. However, they did not expect that this orc army was directly influenced by Hernan, and they were chasing them relentlessly, determined to bring the queen, who represented half of the king's power, back to the royal city.

In the distance, there was a ghost that was even faster than the orc army. He was wearing knight armor and holding a knight sword. It seemed that he was also a powerful knight when he was alive. After his death, he lived as a ghost knight and became a servant of Surtur at dusk.

"Hand over the queen."

The Ghost Knight threatened. He was not worried about not being able to win, but he was afraid that the queen would die in a charge by the orc army. Those brainless orcs would not care about the queen, but if the queen died, His Highness Hernan would kill them without hesitation when he returned to the royal city.

No, perhaps it is an ending more terrible than death.

"Hand over the queen, and I will let you live."

Ghost Knight was once a human being, so he knows where the bad roots of humans lie.

Sure enough, after these words were spoken, the others had no words to say, but those nobles could not help themselves.

"The royal family has plunged the kingdom into war. This is all the royal family's fault. Hand over the queen, and we will survive and retake the kingdom's land."

"Shut up!"

A loud shout came from Michaela, and his cold eyes under the visor were fixed on the noble who spoke.

"If you dare to shake the morale of the army again, I will kill you!"

"You...you are just a little knight. Do you know who I am? I am a noble..."

He didn't get to finish his words, because in the distance the ground was shaking, the orc army was already approaching, but in another area, a white torrent was also running out.

"Brothers, rush!!!"

Bogurd stood on Volibear's back, with one leg on his back and one leg raised on his head, wielding his sword as if he was riding the wind and waves.

Hundreds of armored bears rushed towards more than two thousand hog orcs. They did not stop at all and the two sides collided with each other without hesitation.

"Am I seeing right... Is that the one?"

"Why is Captain Bogeld here? Aren't they around Qifeng Mountain?"

"I think... it's not strange for her to appear anywhere. Could it be that Commander Bogeld is specifically hunting down this orc army?"

Behind Michaela, the knights relaxed a little. Just now, there were only dozens of them and the other side was only two thousand, which made them extremely nervous, but now they were not so worried.

Five hundred furious bear warriors against an army of two thousand orcs. The advantage is on my side.

"It's safe."

Even Michaela said this, and Fletcher next to her asked curiously.

"This is……"

"Ms. Bogeld is the leader of the extraordinary army under Lord Ryan."

"woman?"

Queen Leta also became curious and couldn't help but feel a liking for a woman who charged forward so recklessly in war.

"It is said that Miss Bogeld is not very old. Perhaps only Lord Ryan knows her real age."

Michaela took a deep breath. As a soldier of Captain Brand and a knight squire of Lord Ryan, he felt that the Stag Legion would one day become a powerful extraordinary legion.

quickly.

"The baron you're talking about... is he really a baron?"

Fletcher couldn't help but ask. He saw in front of him, the violent war bears stood up, with thunder rippling on their claws, and slapped forward. Seven or eight warthog orcs standing in front of the armored bears were torn into pieces. The orcs were powerful, but the armored bears were even more terrifying.

There were also warriors hanging on the armored bears, cutting off the heads of orcs amid the armored bears' roars.

Such an army, and its master is a baron?
"What are you doing? Don't fight too long. We have a target this time!"

Bogeld stood on the back of the armored bear and shouted loudly.

"We'll come and kill the orcs next time. Now charge over there, charge over there!"

She did not fight. Five hundred armored bears penetrated the orc army like a white torrent. Although there was no active fighting, hundreds of warthog orcs still died in front of the armored bears and the weapons wielded by the warriors.

"Purpose? Do they have other purposes?"

Queen Leta asked, and then she saw the torrent of armored bear troops rushing towards her.

Bogeld and the queen looked at each other, and their two completely different pairs of eyes collided with each other. One couldn't help but shudder, and the other shouted excitedly.

"That's right, it's her, it's her! Brothers, rush, grab her!"

Before Queen Leta could react, the knights in front of her were knocked away by the tall armored bears. They were intelligent, so they did not kill these humans.

"Why do you look familiar?"

Bogeld grabbed Michaela, and then didn't care. The arrogant girl didn't care who was in front of her and threw Michaela out.

"Myself...people..."

Boom boom boom! ! !
The charge of the armored bear drowned out his voice.

By the time Queen Leta reacted, she had already been lifted up. The ups and downs made it so that she could only see Volibear's hard armor and the soft hair that was exposed.
