Chapter 572 Charge
Abel was not expecting to have such good results with only one arrow.He was worried that the Miracle spirit would attribute the war glory to his head.Although the others might not know the situation with the wolf riders, Abel could see the whole situation well. Everything moved slowly under his gaze.
At that moment, red rain began to pour above the knights. Abel felt his sight flickering. He recovered soon, but not his horseback deer.
“It’s a dark curse. Cover your horse’s eyes!” Head commander Bodley yelled.
All the knights began pulling down their war horses’ eye covers. The wizards next to Abel did the same, so he looked at his own horseback deer. Just as he expected, there was an eye cover that could be pulled down on top of its eyes.
He quickly pulled it down, and his unsettled horseback deer became calm once again. Although it could not see anything, Abel could use his legs to control its direction.
“K3516. I was just thinking of reminding you, but your riding skills are so good already!” K3305 smiled when he saw Abel control his horseback deer with his legs.
Abel nodded back at k3305 to thank him for his good intentions and pulled on his Harry’s bow again. The wizards had their spells ready. Not all wizards could unleash immediate spells, especially beginner wizards.
The 3 rounds of short spears attacks did not yield a good result. Although the team of wolf riders only had 100 members, there were tens of skeletons lurking within. The 3 rounds of spear attacks had only killed around 20 wolf riders, not a single wolf rider captain.
At that moment, the combat qi armor of a wolf rider captain had been smashed. Just as he wanted to replenish it, a fireball was sent flying his way. He had to lower his body to dodge.
But just as he was lowering his body, an arrow landed on his neck. Without the protection of combat qi armor, that arrow ripped his skin apart and split his trachea in two. Afterward, the arrow flew out from his back.
This strike had destroyed that wolf rider captain in a split of a second. He landed cold on the ground and got trampled on by the chaotic wolf riders and skeletons.
Afterward, a 10 meter high, grey combat qi glow shot up to the sky, but the team of 100 wolf riders had no time to analyze how their leader died so suddenly. At that moment, the knights were already changing their formation and charging at them.
“Glory life!” All the knights yelled in unison, and a white glow surrounded the front of the knights once again as their war horses began to accelerate.
The knights on the right-wing swiftly switched towards the front. There was only one head commander among those knights, and they were about to collide with a powerful team of 5 wolf rider captains and 10 deities.
Still, the humans kept charging. That head commander soon shifted into the center of the formation on his war horse.
“Sharp charge!” Head Commander Bodley yelled, and the knight formation began to shift into an arrow shape with the most powerful commanders on the tip.
When they were around 30 meters from their enemies, Abel took another shot with his Harry’s bow, and the other wizards also threw out a spell.
There were not many spells the beginner wizards could use in this formation. Most of the time, they just used Fire bolt or Ice bolt, and at that moment, 6 fire bolts and 3 ice bolts flew out.
It was time for Abel to snatch his war glory. But he didn’t want to stand out too much. It was not a good idea–especially when he was trying to keep his identity a secret. There were many tactics he could not use.
Abel aimed his shot at a wolf rider behind the wolf rider captains. Since they hadn’t grasped any combat qi, they could not use a combat qi armor. They could only take the arrow head on.
When both sides were attacking, Abel took 5 shots, and 5 wolf riders dropped dead.
During that time, most of the Wizards only had the time to unleash one spell. Only k3305 next to Abel had unleashed 2 spells. K3305 had unleashed 3 spells, but they were all coming from his magic items, so they were all immediate spells.
The deities did not just let the human take shots as well. 3 out of the 10 deities grasped the ‘teeth’ attack spell. Not all deities could do a poison or white bone spells, of course.
Most of them could only grasp the ‘bone armor’ from poison and white bone spells. Since spells were often weak and poison spells were very hard to learn, deities would rarely dedicate a lot of time to learning spells.
In other words, only 3 out of 10 deities had grasped a ‘teeth’ spell. Still, a sea of sharp teeth was summoned, flying straight towards the knights.
The teeth were infused with death qi, and they collided with the knights. Their combat qi absorbed most of the impact of those teeth, and their shields blocked the leftovers.
A knight blocked a little late, and a tooth landed on his left shoulder. He began to feel dizzy and dropped from his war horse.
Every knight knew what would happen if you dropped from your horse during a charge. During a charging formation, the only thing in a knight’s mind was to move forward. It was their duty.
Abel wanted to help, but he was afraid of disrupting the charging formation, so he just watched as that knight got trampled by the others.
Meanwhile, the wizards’ fire bolts and ice bolts were already in front of the wolf riders.
Wolf riders did not have shields; they only used their speed to dodge. The wolf riders captain up front swiftly avoided the spells, and the wolf riders at the back also used all kinds of speedy methods to dodge.
However, at the end of the day, there were still some slower wolf riders in the bunch, so they all turned into either flame or frost.
A deity had it the worse; first, his bone armor had been smashed by a fire bolt by k3308. Then his skeleton was blast into pieces by a second fire bolt trying to protect him. If it didn’t, the deity would be the first one to die from magic in this battle.
But it was not that lucky. Abel always kept his eyes on the battlefield, and he would not let go of such a good opportunity. An arrow shot through the wolf riders and landed in the deity. Whoosh! A few skeletons dropped to the ground into a pile of bones. Since their owner had been killed, their flame of life went out.
The knights charging formation had finally collided with the wolf riders. If the left wing of the knight formation was not filled with normal knights, there was no way those wolf riders would dare to take them head on.
The head commanders viciously swung their long spears, gathering the combat qi of 89 knights into a giant combat qi whip, swiping straight towards the wolf riders.
Although the wolf riders were the same rank of not higher than head commanders, at that moment, they were like specs of dust in the face of that giant combat qi whip. More than 10 skeletons were blast out.
This swipe alone had brought them quite a lot of war glory, but only 3 skeletons at the very front were destroyed. All the other ones were just blasted away by the momentum; they didn’t take much damage.
The head commander did a little swirl with the combat qi whip and slashed it straight towards the wolf rider captains. The wolf rider captains knew that they had to block this slash before they could make contact with the humans.
A knight’s formation was the base of the human Knight’s power. They did not have the strength and speed of a wolf rider, so they could only rely on their long years of training and knight formation.
Suddenly, a Green light wrapped around the long spear of a front line wolf rider captain. He mumbled something, and all the knights and wizards felt a weird shockwave coming towards them.
