Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

"I already told you, I'm busy, I have to go back to eat!"

Jiang Ran ignored the threat from the warhorse cavalry, walked around it and continued walking. At this time, the other party felt in his bag and threw something to him.

"Then let's eat here. I haven't eaten yet either. Let's eat together, and then you lead the way!"

The warhorse heavy knight threw a piece of white bread to Jiang Ran, and then he took a piece for himself, sat on the warhorse, lifted up his helmet and prepared to eat.

Jiang Ran looked at the white bread in his hand and knew that this was not something that ordinary people could eat - it had nothing to do with money. Due to the severe shortage of white bread, only the upper class could enjoy it.

Seeing that the young man was standing there in a daze and had not started eating, the War Horse Heavy Knight thought that he did not trust him, so he tossed another silver coin over.

"What are you afraid of? I won't give you less money for the guide fee. Eat quickly and don't waste my time!"

Jiang Ran smiled, took the silver coin, and took a bite of the white bread. It was indeed much more delicious than the black bread that was as thick as a brick.

·

"You kid, you don't know who I am, right?"

The Warhorse Heavy Knight started chatting with Jiang Ran while chewing on bread.

"I don't know. Who are you?" Jiang Ran asked back with a confused look.

"Hahahaha! I knew it. No wonder you're so arrogant that you even dare to refuse the knight's order."

The Warhorse Knight laughed heartily, and then he began to impart common sense to the ignorant boy in the tattered cloak.

"Remember this, I am Lord Pride, Captain of the First Cavalry of the Greenwood City Cavalry Regiment! You civilians must obey us when you see us. Do you understand?"

"Why? Are you a noble?"

The boy's question left Pride speechless for a moment, because the boy accurately grasped Pride's weakness of not having a noble surname.

"Well, I... I'm not a noble, but I'm a quasi-noble! Anyway, I'm a higher class than you commoners!"

Pride tried to cover it up, and fortunately the boy didn't ask any more questions this time.

"Oh, well, since you've paid me, where do you want me to lead you?"

"Take me to find the Corruption-Removing Poison Blade Rat King. According to your quest guild's report, he's in a large forest called Sang-something."

"Sunny Forest?"

"Yeah!"

After hearing this, Jiang Ran finally understood why Pride wanted to hunt the Corruption Blade Rat King. It turned out that it was a request from the Task Union.

However, one thing made Jiang Ran feel strange. Why were the people coming to support him from the Cuilin City Cavalry Regiment instead of the reward hunters from the Cuilin City Mission Guild?

Now is not the time to ask this question, Jiang Ran put it aside for the time being and asked another question first.

"Uncle, you're going to kill the Corruption-Detoxifying Poison Blade Rat King by yourself?"

"Yes, that's why I came here. And don't call me uncle, call me Captain."

Pride spoke freely about the purpose of his visit.

"I heard your Sunny Town Quest Guild suffered a heavy blow, and the Corruption Blade Rat King is entrenched nearby. Your survival is at stake, and I can't just sit back and watch."

"Uh, uncle, why didn't your cavalry come with you?"

"I'm enough on my own. There's no need to mobilize a large force. You common people don't understand. You just love to watch the big scenes. Humph!"

Pride seemed to be hiding something, and Jiang Ran couldn't discover anything from his inner thoughts.

This man appears to be rude and noisy, but he is surprisingly taciturn inside.

"Okay, now that we've eaten, let's go. Do you know where the big forest is?"

"I know. Come with me."

·

After a few minutes of getting along, Jiang Ran basically understood this knight named Pride.

This person is arrogant, impatient, careless, and has deep-rooted class concepts. However, his nature is not bad. He speaks and acts straightforwardly, and he has some strength.

As early as when he first met him, Jiang Ran knew through mind reading that he was here to eliminate the Corruption-Detoxifying Poison-Blade Rat King.

At that time, Jiang Ran's idea was that if he was seeking his own death, then he would send him on his way. If he could still be saved, then he would help him depending on the situation - because this would also be "good" for Jiang Ran.

The "benefits" do not refer to white bread and silver coins, but to the fact that Jiang Ran will have the opportunity to watch the fighting styles of other professions.

This is something truly valuable to Jiang Ran.

·

When Jiang Ran took Pride to the Sunny Forest, he took the opportunity to observe and identify Pride's warhorse and equipment.

Pride's warhorse was tall and a size larger than the small motorcycle. Correspondingly, its various attributes were about 20% higher than the small motorcycle. This made Jiang Ran understand that powerful natural creatures were not inferior to low-level monsters.

However, the scooter is only level three after all, which makes Jiang Ran start to look forward to whether the appearance of the scooter will change after its level is upgraded in the future.

After breaking through the class bottlenecks of level 20 and level 50, will the small motorcycle evolve again?

After looking at the warhorse, Jiang Ran then looked at Pride's equipment. He was wearing a complete set of "suits".

━━━━━━━━━━

Silver Heavy Helmet:

Strength +10, Dexterity -1;

When the head is attacked, it can absorb 40 points of damage instead. If the head sustains more than 800 points of damage in a single attack, it will be destroyed.

·

Silver Heavy Armor:

Strength +20, Dexterity -5;

When the torso is attacked, it can absorb 80 points of damage instead. If the torso sustains more than 1600 points of damage in a single attack, it will be destroyed.

·

『Silver Heavy Boots』:

Strength +5, Dexterity -1;

When the legs are attacked, they can absorb 40 points of damage instead. If the torso takes more than 800 points of damage in a single attack, it will be destroyed.

·

Large square shield with silver trim:

Strength +10, Dexterity -2;

Can withstand a maximum of 2000 points of single damage, penetration resistance +5;

━━━━━━━━━━

After looking at the equipment on Pride, Jiang Ran learned new knowledge.

Jiang Ran remembered that Albert's silver soft armor had the damage reduction type marked as "physical", but none of Pride's equipment had the damage type marked on it. This meant that his equipment could reduce both physical and magical damage.

(Does silver itself have special properties? Since silver is so soft, it must be mixed with other metals.)

In addition to this, Pride's equipment also let Jiang Ran know a new concept called "suit effect".

On each piece of Pride's armor is displayed:

"Set Effect: Silver Heavy Armor (4/4)": Reduces damage received by 10%, and then calculates the damage based on the equipment effect of the actual affected part.

(This is like a game...)

Jiang Ran was wondering in his heart, and then they arrived at the Sunny Forest.

Even if he was just on the periphery, Jiang Ran could smell the unique fishy smell of the scavenging black rat population.

6.21 - Cavalry-style combat

"This is the big forest, right?"

Priedler stopped his horse and did not rush in, which surprised Jiang Ran.

This uncle is rough but meticulous.

"Yes, this whole area is full of them."

Jiang Ran nodded and continued to move forward. At this time, Pride stopped him with a long-handled war hammer.

"That's all. Go back and don't cause me any trouble."

Jiang Ran was stunned for a moment.

It surprised me that.

This uncle is even more meticulous.

Although Pride didn't say it explicitly, Jiang Ran knew that this uncle didn't want him to be involved in the battle, so he asked him to go back first.

It was because of this sentence that Jiang Ran decided to help him, of course, secretly.

"Oh, good luck to you then."

Jiang Ran took one last look at the weapon in Pride's hand, then turned and left.

(If you use this thing, you're probably no match for the Corruption Blade Rat King.)

━━━━━━━━━━

『Heavy Dark Iron Long-Handled Warhammer』:

1. Strength +30, Dexterity -5;

2. When the wearer's strength attribute is more than 100 points higher than the target, each attack has a 10% chance of causing dizziness, which lasts for 3 seconds;

3. When causing damage, ignore the damage reduction effect of the enemy's armor;

━━━━━━━━━━

Pride's long-handled warhammer is very suitable for fighting against tank-type enemies, but if it is used against agile opponents, it will be difficult to hit them.

The Corruption Blade Rat King's speed was not slow; Jiang Ran had witnessed it before. He still remembered the earth-shaking feeling clearly.

However, this is not Pride's biggest trouble.

The biggest problem Pride will face is that the Corruption Blade Rat King never acts alone. If it appears, it will definitely bring the entire rat pack with it...

Jiang Ran felt terrified just imagining a heavily armored knight like Pride being besieged by a swarm of rats in the forest...especially if the poisonous young rats could squeeze in through the gaps in the armor.

·

"Haha! Just wait and hear my reputation spread to Sunny Town!" Pride said, riding his horse confidently into the forest.

Jiang Ran pretended to leave first, and after a while, he used the hunter's stealth skills and began to track the warhorse from a distance by following its tracks.

Although Jiang Ran couldn't see Pride, he could hear his loud voice repeatedly shouting, "Corruption-Detoxifying Rat King, come out!"

"Corruption Blade Rat King! Someone is coming to kill you!"

Jiang Ran found it hard to connect Pride's rough and chaotic combat strategy with his identity as the "Captain of the First Cavalry Squadron of the Cuilin City Cavalry Regiment", and it was also hard for him to believe that this was something a 32-year-old "Level 50 Warhorse Heavy Knight" could do.

However, just a few minutes later, Jiang Ran changed his opinion of Pride.

·

·

Pride walked deeper and deeper into the forest. He dismounted and led the horse forward slowly. From time to time, he would whisper a few words in the horse's ear, ready to start a battle at any time.

Pride saw all the little mice squeaking not far away.

Just after Pride shouted again, he faintly felt the ground shaking. He immediately jumped on his horse and shouted loudly to make the horse gallop!

Without even seeing the enemy's true form, Pride already knew that with such intense vibrations, it must be the Corrupted Poison Blade Rat King rushing towards him!

Sure enough, not long after, a giant rat with a body as big as an elephant rushed out from the depths of the forest!

Its running speed was as fast as Pride's warhorse, and every time it ran, the earth would tremble!

——(Damn! Is this information wrong?! Didn’t it say it was about the same size as a rhinoceros? It could swallow a rhinoceros in one gulp!)

“Gee! Gee! Gee! Gee!”
