Chapter 117, Before the Tower
After kicking a knight riding on a giant rat, the old priest sat on the rat.
The charge began.
Under the aura of killing, the rat knights almost reached the fastest speed they could reach.
For a moment, these despicable freaks also rushed out with some momentum.
The collapsed wall was crossed without any difficulty.
His scorching eyes stared at the transparent tower in the center of the city, which was still dazzling even in the dark night.
In the crazy laughter.
Crossed one street after another.
The flames followed closely in the city.
Even if the defenders of the boar capital reacted quickly, they could not catch up with the rat knights climbing and jumping on the houses.
The most suitable environment for this group of freaks in the cavalry is the city with complex buildings.
Closer! Closer and closer!
This crazy guy is getting closer and closer to the shining transparent tower.
But this obviously alarmed the garrison around the dazzling tower.
A team of knights wearing more exquisite and complex armor filed out of the palace.
The guy in the lead.
The armor was more exquisite than the knights around him, with bright golden patterns dotted everywhere on the armor, and a flag was inserted on the back, which was not so clear in the dark.
That was the king of the wild boars, an ambitious leader, and also the majesty to whom all wild boar commanders were loyal.
He was also the one who promoted the reform of the wild boar knights.
At this time, he and his guards appeared in front of the transparent tower in the first batch.
In the light reflected by the tower, the flags behind him fluttered, and the patterns depicted on them were the epics of the wild boars and the stories of the gods.
He was also a believer.
At the same time, he was the king of the wild boars.
As a believer, he rushed to the temple of the gods as soon as possible, and as a king, he was also the source of the conflict between the commanders and priests in the wild boar kingdom.
Interestingly, the reform of the boar knights was pushed by the king, but he and the guards he led were all knights.
It can be said that the reason why this scene appeared in front of him was all because of him.
Because of his decision.
But he did not regret it.
Gods only need to be high above the sky! The stories of mortals still need mortals to write!
This is the hidden concept of the boar king, and it is also a thorny problem that many new gods need to face.
The overly outstanding people in the family always have their own persistence and pursuit.
If the gods are contrary to their ideas, then disobedience will be a destined thing.
And the gods need them, and they don’t need them.
How to balance?
Many gods of the new gods have been thinking about this problem, but there has never been a suitable answer.
After crossing one street after another, the ratman knights finally faced the kingdom guards standing in front of the transparent tower.
The smile on the old priest’s face faded.
The expression on his face became gloomy and terrible.
When he was about to achieve everything he wanted, a roadblock appeared in front of him.
No more words.
Whether it was the rat-man knights with red eyes perched on the roofs of the houses on the street.
Or the royal guards lined up neatly in front of the tower.
A brief pause and stalemate.
Then!
That's it!
Charge! Charge!
The rat-man knights jumped down from the roofs of the street, and under the aura of killing, there was no timidity or retreat.
The rat-man knights and giant rats were expendable items without mercy at this moment.
Swarmed in the darkness.
On the other side.
The white light dispelled the darkness, and the lance standing on the ground was raised and pointed in front.
No more words.
When the mask was pulled down, the charge began.
The two troops collided fiercely.
In an instant, a large number of rat-man knights flew out and fell heavily to the ground.
Under the effect of the killing aura, the Ratman Riders abandoned their usual fighting style.
But how could they, who were not as strong as ordinary boar knights, win against the more elite Boarman Kingdom Guards in a head-on confrontation?
The Ratman Knights who were thrown out got rid of the effect of the killing aura in their last moments, and unspeakable fear appeared on their faces.
But it was obvious that it was already a last moment.
Died with fear.
The killing continued. The number of the Boarman Kingdom Guards was too small. Fifty people could serve as the sharpest spearhead during the charge.
But now there were no other ordinary knights to serve as spears.
After the charge stopped, they were surrounded by the red-eyed Riders.
Even though this could not change the gap in strength between the two sides.
But the battle was fierce and long. Even if you killed the knight on the giant rat, you still had to be careful of the red-eyed giant rat.
In other words, the biggest threat these rat knights pose to the Royal Guards is these deformed giant rats.
Even though the equipment has been constantly upgraded in rounds of battles, it is not very effective against the Royal Guards' armor, which is even stronger than that of ordinary boar knights.
But these giant rats are different. As long as the violent giant rat bites, even the solid armor will be instantly penetrated.
Moreover, these giant rats are not easy to kill. As aberrant creatures, they have violent vitality. At the same time, they are shrouded in a halo of killing and fall into complete rage.
Even if he was knocked to the ground by those ferocious wild boars with great force, even if his body was penetrated by a lance.
But he won't die on the spot.
He can still twist his body and launch attacks.
Plus the rat knights who came with all kinds of things in their hands.
There is also bad news.
The old priest's killing aura is indiscriminate, and it affects all creatures in the range at the same time.
Even as an elite Kingdom Guard, when you lose your mind.
When you fall out of formation, forget your honed skills in anger, and start trying to fight with instinct.
Then death is not far away from you.
A swarm of Skaven will tear you apart, and even the sturdy armor on your body cannot protect you.
Things are not looking good for these Kingdom Guards.
Of course, the same is true for the old priest.
This is the quilboar capital after all.
Quilboar reinforcements will arrive at any time.
He didn't have much time. Even the garrison and the Kingdom Guards were unable to deal with these rat knights who could run on the walls of houses.
The old priest never thought about the possibility of failure. The temple of the heretic god was right in front of him, and he couldn't bear to delay it for even one second.
Riding the giant rat, he left the chaotic battlefield and climbed up the surrounding houses, under the bright moonlight.
He raised the wooden stick in his hand high.
Scarlet eyes were fixed on the group of kingdom knights who were surrounded by the swarming rat-men running knights in the center.
Especially the leader with the most exquisite armor.
The old priest didn't know that this guy was the king of the wild boar people, and it didn't matter even if he knew.
A cruel and crazy smile appeared on his face, and he raised the wooden stick in his hand high.
"Do you think you can stop me!"
"Kill you! Despicable fools! You will also be sacrificed!"
"This is all for the gods! For me!"
There will be another chapter update and an additional chapter in the evening. I am moving these days and I am a bit busy. I will add more chapters slowly in the future.
