Chapter 22 Trap
The Ice Punishment Forest outside Kaiyuan City.
A group of black-armored cavalry were walking majestically on the road in the wilderness. At the front of the group was a burly middle-aged knight. He was wearing dark armor and carrying a broad sword on his back. He looked straight ahead with a serious expression. It was O'Quinn who was preparing to go to the Ice Punishment Forest to intercept Kyle.
Snowflakes were flying in the sky, and the cavalry regiment moved forward slowly in the cold wind.
The army led by O'Quinn was in strict discipline, and all the cavalry marched toward the Ice Punishment Forest without saying a word. After an hour's journey, they finally saw the shadow of the Ice Punishment Forest.
"My lord, would you like to let the soldiers take a rest?" the adjutant knight stepped forward and asked.
"No, keep going!" O'Quinn looked grim.
The cavalry regiment marched in the cold wind for two hours. Both the horses and the knights had exhausted a certain amount of energy. Logically speaking, they should take a rest before entering the Ice Punishment Forest. However, O'Quinn was eager to intercept Kyle at this moment, so he directly used his big hand to kill Kyle. Command and lead the army into the forest.
As O'Quinn rode forward, he scanned the surrounding situation with his eyes.
The silent Ice Forest was lifeless. The howling cold wind picked up the fluttering snowflakes and turned them into cold white streams. The cavalry regiment moved silently among the trees. It didn't take long before they entered the hinterland of the forest. The surrounding environment gradually became narrow and complicated. .
"My lord, something seems to be wrong." The adjutant knight rode forward and whispered.
O'Quinn frowned slightly, and there was a hint of gloom in his heart. The silence in the forest was a bit eerie. The cavalry regiment had been marching for so long, but they didn't even see a single bird. Even though it was winter, it was really incredible.
"Be alert and keep moving forward!" O'Quinn said in a deep voice with a cold face.
The adjutant knight's lips wriggled slightly, he hesitated but said nothing, and waved his hand to direct the cavalry to move deeper into the forest. However, before they had gone far, a faint smell of blood came from the forest not far away.
"Sir, it's over there!" the adjutant knight pointed forward and said in a deep voice.
Not far away, an unkempt corpse hung on a thick tree. It had become stiff in the cold wind. The armor on the corpse was in tatters and stained with blood, but it could still be identified from the style. It turned out that it was the armor from Giant Wolf City.
"The smell of blood hasn't dissipated yet. He must have died not long ago." The adjutant knight frowned.
As the adjutant knight spoke, he pulled the reins and drove his mount over. He drew out his long sword and pushed away the hair that covered the corpse's face, revealing a stiff face. The adjutant knight's heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but gasp.
"Teen Wolf Kyle!?"
O'Quinn frowned, and suddenly a strong uneasiness surged in his heart. He looked at the adjutant knight, and opened his mouth to shout something, when a scream suddenly sounded in the forest, and a long rod flew from nowhere. The spear went straight to the adjutant knight beside the corpse.
"Uh, ah!!!" The spear fired directly through the adjutant knight's chest, causing him to scream in agony.
call out! call out! call out!
At the same time, a hail of arrows suddenly struck from all directions. Before O'Quinn had time to react, dozens of cavalrymen were hit by arrows and fell from their horses.
"Be alert, defend!" O'Quinn shouted, "Everyone dismounts, and the shield soldiers form a protective formation!"
The cavalry regiment was highly disciplined and reacted quickly after the first round of arrow rain. Under O'Quinn's command, the cavalrymen carrying shields dismounted one after another, and before the second round of arrow rain struck, they quickly The speed of completing the defensive formation.
The arrow hit the shield, making a dull sound, and then fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, noisy shouts rang out in the forest, and countless men in black roared out from all directions. O'Quinn decisively ordered a counterattack, and the well-trained soldiers retracted their shields and raised their spears.
"Devil Flame Slash!" O'Quinn got on his horse and roared angrily.
With fighting spirit burning in his body, O'Quinn picked up the giant sword with one hand and swung a half-moon-shaped slash. The fighting spirit like black flames spread like a tide, and in an instant, more than ten black-clothed people rushed to the front. People burned to ashes.
The terrifying power brought by the great knight caused the men in black who had originally charged to retreat.
At this moment, a knight with a silver gun riding a white horse and a mask on his face rushed out. He passed a group of men in black and went straight to O'Quinn's direction. The spear in his hand was wrapped with thunderous silver fighting spirit. With a brave momentum, he launched an attack brazenly!
"Drink!" The masked man stabbed out his gun like thunder.
O'Quinn immediately swung his sword to block. The giant sword burning with black flames touched the silver spear wrapped with thunder. There was a dull sound immediately. Both sides felt the strength of the other. After the fight, they quickly separated and each took a few steps back.
"Great Knight!?" O'Quinn was slightly startled, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
There are less than ten great knights in the icy plains. O'Quinn has known about it for many years. He even killed the Lord of the Giant Wolf City who was a veteran great knight. However, he has never heard of anyone who uses it. The great knight with the spear suddenly felt solemn in his heart.
Inside the castle, bedroom on the second floor.
In front of the window of the room, Enzo looked expressionlessly into the distance. In the forest outside Kaiyuan City, a large number of soldiers from the Iron Scythe family had poured out not long ago. The guards in the city had launched a defense, and the two sides were fighting in a melee.
boom! ! The bedroom door was suddenly kicked open.
Enzo turned around and saw Knight Gallo holding a long sword with a sinister smile on his face, looking at him with evil intentions.
"Hello, Master Enzo." Gallo said sadly.
"Is it really you? Gallo." Enzo asked softly, expressionless, "So, this is the Iron Scythe family's plan? To deceive father away first, and then send troops to occupy Kaiyuan City?"
When Iron Scythe family soldiers appeared in the forest, Enzo had some vague thoughts in his mind.
Considering the timing of Gero's appearance, I speculated that this guy had defected to Iron Horn City. He first used O'Quinn's hatred for Young Wolf Kyle to lure him to the Ice Punishment Forest, and then gave the Iron Scythe family a launch signal, and take this opportunity to capture Kaiyuan City.
"Iron sickle? Haha, I have no interest in working for them!" Gero sneered.
"My guess is wrong?" Enzo frowned and his eyes flashed.
"It's getting late, I'd better send you on your way first." Guero didn't say anything more. He pointed the long sword in his hand at Enzo with a sneer and said, "I advise you not to resist. For the sake of past kindness, I’ll give you a good time!”
After saying that, Gero rushed forward.
"Oh, really?" The corner of Enzo's lips raised, and suddenly he moved, with a short blade in his hand, and he leaned towards Guero like a ghost.
