Chapter 444 The Annihilation of the Black Knight Legion

This army of black knights is the trump card in Neia's hands. All the black knights are super undead creatures, and their leader, Death Lord House, is even called the "strongest death lord". He already has the strength close to the high-level undead creatures. , is the existence of the entire Lund Peninsula second only to the Lich in strength. 【】

Normally, Neia would not easily send this team to take on the task of attacking the castle.But today's situation is different. The lich has revealed that the humans in this castle have extraordinary strength. It is difficult to achieve results by relying on the low-level undead creatures that are used as cannon fodder, so the black knight army was sent.

"Where did these humans come from..." Neia couldn't help but think to herself as House led his men forward to the castle, "Why is there such a strong combat power, which is completely different from the human army we encountered before?" ah!"

Although the lich is suspicious of the origin of the castle and its humans, it decides to kill all the enemies first.Having such a powerful army in the Lund Peninsula seriously threatened Neia's rule over this land.It is said that Master Moraday has already defeated those enemies in the Demon Realm, and will soon return to the human world with that mysterious commander.At this critical moment, Neia absolutely does not want any mistakes in the Lund Peninsula. You must know that this is the first stop for the Grand Commander to return to the human world. If these humans have not been wiped out by then...

Even the lich couldn't help shivering at the thought of the dire consequences of this happening.It forbids itself to think about it, and uses the soul link to issue an order to House to rush into the castle and kill all humans.

Under the leadership of House, the black knight urged the bone horse under his crotch to rush towards the castle quickly.The soul fire in the bone horse's eye sockets was burning fiercely, and quickly reached the fastest speed.A large number of black knights in black armor roared loudly and charged towards the castle.Although these black knights couldn't see their expressions wearing full helmets, the light of the soul fire had penetrated through the masks, showing how high their fighting spirit was at this time.

Roger was keenly aware that the black knights would pose a huge threat to his side, and immediately ordered the catapults and dwarf ballistas to launch a focused attack on these guys.However, as super undead creatures, the IQ of the black knights is not low. They did not charge intensively, but maintained a relatively loose formation.Not only that, but the black knights would actively avoid the oncoming earthen jars, and they were advancing extremely fast, so the catapults did not cause major casualties to these guys.On the way to the charge, only dozens of black knights who were particularly unlucky were eliminated, and the rest all approached the castle and entered the dead end of the trebuchet shooting.

Although the crossbowmen took over in time and continued to attack the black knights, the thick armor of these undead creatures blocked most of the arrows, and only a few unlucky ones were injured by the arrows shot through the gaps in the armor, unwillingly Fall off the fast horse.

However, even so, most of the black knights who fell off their horses quickly stood up again, and continued to rush towards the gap in the city wall just like infantry.Roger on the city wall couldn't help but frowned at this scene. These black knights were far stronger than he estimated, and they were definitely not easy enemies to deal with.

The sense of crisis made Roger quickly mobilize more soldiers to the gap in the city wall, and even ordered a dozen junior magicians to rush there urgently.However, Roger's order was issued a little later, and most of the black knights who did not fall off their horses were extremely fast, and had already rushed to the gap in the city wall.

Although the upper part of the wall has collapsed, the remaining part is still two stories high.However, such a height was completely out of the black knight's eyes, and the black knights who had rushed to the gap pulled the reins vigorously one after another, and rushed straight up.

The bone horse leaped high with the black knight on its back, as if it had no weight at all, it jumped directly onto the gap in the two-story city wall.Roger was dumbfounded by this situation. He never thought that these black knights would use such a method to rush into the city.

Fortunately, there were many soldiers guarding the gap.Seeing the black knight jumping up directly, the heavy spearmen who had been waiting for a long time immediately raised their spears, forming a forest of spears, blocking the rushing black knight.

The black knight in mid-air couldn't change direction at all, so he rushed straight towards the spear formation, and then collided heavily with the heavy spearmen.The two sides collided heavily, making a loud "boom".Many black knights were directly pierced by spears, and then fell heavily back to the ground outside the castle, the soul fire in their eyes dimmed instantly.

And their desperate charge also knocked away many heavy spearmen. These soldiers were thrown directly from the city wall to the ground, and many of them vomited blood and died on the spot.There are still many heavy spearmen who have stood firm, but the spears in their hands have been broken by the huge impact, and the wrists of many people have also been broken or dislocated, and they no longer have the ability to fight again.

Fortunately, there were quite a few soldiers at the gap, and heavy spearmen immediately came up to fill the positions of the wounded and dead, to welcome the next round of the Black Knight's attack.

The Black Knight was like waves beating against the rocks restlessly, attacking the gap wave after wave.Although the guarding soldiers defended with all their strength, they were unable to block the attack of the black knights in the end. Loopholes gradually appeared in the original tight formation, and were finally pierced by the black knights who rushed up desperately.The two black knights jumped onto the city wall from the gap in the formation at the right time, and then rode their horses and jumped into the castle without any hesitation.

Neia in the distance saw this scene clearly, and couldn't help but feel somewhat proud.In Lich's memory, human beings are cowardly and afraid of death.Maybe they can still hold on to the castle when the battle is going well, but at this time there are already black knights rushing in, which will definitely confuse the human army, and it is already very difficult to defend the castle.

And since one black knight can storm a castle, there will soon be more black knights to do the same.When the time comes, the black knight will slaughter to his heart's content in the castle, which will definitely attract a large part of the opponent's attention.That would be more conducive to the large number of low-level undead creatures rushing into the castle. As long as a small part of the undead army can rush into the castle, the war will be over.

In fact, just as the Lich expected, more black knights jumped over the gap in the city wall and rushed into the castle soon.However, when they were preparing to kill, they were surprised to find that in front of them were not panic-stricken humans running around, but a group of soldiers lined up neatly!

These soldiers were urgently dispatched by Roger for reinforcements.Thanks to the desperate resistance of the soldiers on the city wall, Roger bought enough time to set up another line of defense under the city wall.

And the black knights had just jumped in from outside the castle, and they had no speed advantage at all.The soldiers under Roger didn't give them room to charge again, which was very detrimental to the Black Knights.

However, undead creatures are not human beings, and even if they are at a disadvantage, they will not have any effect on them.In particular, House, the leader of the black knights, had already given the order to "attack", and these black knights could not disobey the leader's order.So after landing, the black knights just hesitated for a moment, and soon launched an attack on the enemy in front of them.

The knight's attack power is extremely strong, but most of it relies on the power of the horse's sprint.Now the distance between the two sides is only a dozen steps, and the bone horse has crashed into the camp of heavy spearmen before running away.Without the impact, the black knight's lethality was greatly reduced, and it was easily intercepted by the heavy spearmen in a dense formation, and the two sides quickly fought into a group.

The individual strength of the black knights is much stronger than Roger's soldiers, but the entire black knight army has only more than 3000 black knights, and only a small part of them attacked the castle.The black knights were already at an extreme disadvantage in terms of numbers, and they fought on their own without cooperating with each other, so they were at a disadvantage not long after.

Many black knights were stabbed off their horses by the heavy spearmen, and then the half-armored swordsmen swarmed up, pulled off the visors of the black knight's helmets, and stabbed them indiscriminately with their long swords.Even though the black knight was very powerful, he was still powerless when he encountered enemies ten or even dozens of times stronger than himself, and they were wiped out one by one by Roger's soldiers.

Soldiers on the nearby walls also took action.They threw the crock full of holy water at the black knight below, and the holy water quickly drenched these undead creatures, even muddying a large area of ​​the ground.Although the holy water cannot directly destroy super undead creatures like the black knight, it is enough to weaken their combat effectiveness.The holy water will not harm Roger's soldiers, but will improve their abilities.In this situation of ebb and flow, the situation of the black knights is even more difficult, and they are wiped out one by one by Roger's soldiers.

At the same time, the black knights outside the castle continued to attack.They jumped over the gaps in the city wall one after another, wanting to launch a fierce attack on humans.But once the black knights jumped over the walls, they would immediately fall into a sea of ​​human soldiers, and then fall to the same fate as their predecessors in the castle.

It turned out that the Black Knight Legion, which Ne Ya regarded as the trump card, was slowly wiped out in this kind of war of attrition.Not long after this elite troop entered the battle, more than half of the black knights were wiped out, and all of them became the soul power absorbed by Roger.And the remaining black knights are still rushing forward and rushing towards the castle. If this continues, it is only a matter of time before their entire army is wiped out.

The heavy loss of his subordinates made House, the commander of the Black Knights, very angry.The death lord let out a roar, and the nightmare beast that moved its crotch jumped into the castle.It wants to use its own strength to kill those human beings who have changed to death, and open up space for its subordinates to attack!
