Translator: 549690339
Before long, accompanied by the resounding neighs of horses and the dull collision of metal armor.
Under the escort of a group of heavily armed cavalry with an imposing presence, two figures on horseback appeared on the street on the other side of the town’s central square.
Upon closer examination, this was a noteworthy pair of young men and women.
The man in the front held a short magic wand, wearing a set of dark blue noble clothing. A neckline adorned with exquisite lace and ribbons had a blue sapphire the size of a cat’s eye embedded in it, emanating a stunning radiance.
Such extravagant attire, coupled with the man’s slightly lazy expression on his face, seemed somewhat out of place amidst the surrounding brutal and bloody battlefield.
The woman slightly behind him presented a completely different scenario, appearing much more mature and composed.
She was clad in black heavy armor, holding a silver-glowing long spear in one hand and a black battle helmet in the other. With a face full of valiance and remarkably sharp eyes, she was an impressive sight.
Moreover, both individuals exuded an extraordinary aura. Although not as remarkable as Serena and Stella cloaked in invisibility, they certainly reached the level of Tier 3 Powerhouses.
“Lord, these two individuals possess strength around Tier 3 Two-Star. The 100 Heavy Knights guarding them are at Tier 2 level, making them the backbone of this mixed unit,” Taylor whispered to Leo Ray after casually glancing at the pair, tugging at the ill-fitting plate armor he was wearing.
“It seems that the Saint Night Army has not suffered any major damage. In a battalion of a thousand men, there are two Tier 3 Powerhouses and over a hundred Tier 2 Powerhouses. This lineup is far more luxurious than the original Half-Orc Corps,” Leo Ray mused, lifting the faceguard of his helmet and looking at the two Saint Night Army Commanders not far away with interest.
On the other side, seeing the commanders approaching, the wounded soldiers and priests in the vicinity bowed their heads in salute, revealing a respectful expression.
“Messenger, are these all the nearby wounded soldiers?”
Pulling the reins of her horse and acknowledging the salute with a slight nod, the Tier 3 Black Armored Female Knight asked the messenger beside her.
“Your Excellency, these are all of them. A preliminary count has shown that most of them are warriors dispersed by the Gale and Firestorm Main Forces last night,” the middle-aged messenger answered while adjusting his gray-white light armor. “There are nearly a hundred with light injuries, several dozen with severe injuries, and some have been transported to the rear for further treatment.”
“Very well, notify the squads scattered throughout the town to assemble here quickly. We will immediately prepare to join the main forces in a counterattack,” the Tier 3 Female Knight called Kara said, stepping onto the stirrups and gently nudging her horse’s belly to continue forward.
“Understood!” On the other side, the middle-aged messenger raised his riding whip, and he and several other messengers went their separate ways, kicking up dust as they departed.
“Captain Christopher, I didn’t expect the commanders of this unit to be none other than Baron Yeste, known as the ‘Kingdom Fire Fox,’ and the ‘Armored Rose,’ Kara Guard Knight, Your Excellency!” Alexander Montgomery, the squad leader who had returned from treatment not long ago, excitedly approached
Leo Ray.
Due to being treated by a beautiful female priest earlier, a faint blush still lingered on his smoke-stained cheeks.
Pausing for a moment, Alexander Montgomery looked at Leo Ray’s unemotional expression and continued, “I assume Brother Christopher must have just entered the army recently? This mixed Magic-Battle Battalion led by Baron Yeste is quite famous in the military.”At this moment, Alexander Montgomery moved a bit closer and continued, “Most of the soldiers under your command are composed of mages and knights, with both top-notch long-range attack and assault capabilities, making them the absolute nemesis of enemy heavy infantry.”
“Of course, there’s also a healing team composed of heavy infantry guards and a priest group.”
As he said this, Alexander’s gaze involuntarily fell on the pretty female priest a few meters away.
The other party also noticed his intense gaze at the first moment, and her pretty face blushed slightly as she dodged his eyes.
Seeing this scene, Alexander grinned and chuckled a few times.
Then he cheered himself up and said to Leo Ray, ‘Especially Vice Captain Kara Guard Knight, whose direct subordinate heavy knight team is an extremely remarkable force, having achieved great battle accomplishments in previous campaigns. ”
As Alexander was speaking, Baron Yeste and Knight Kara, both Tier 3 powerhouses, were already approaching everyone under the escort of heavy cavalry.
“All of you warriors of the Saint Night Kingdom have worked hard.”
Kara, the female heavy knight, handed her lance and helmet to an attendant nearby and dismounted. She said to the soldiers with dirt-covered faces around the fountain, “Everyone, rest well here, and we will take care of the counterattack.”
“Captain Kara, that’s not what the higher-ups said.”
Baron Yeste, on the other side, dismounted from his horse with ease and shook his head helplessly, “Our team’s orders are to gather all the remaining soldiers in the vicinity, assemble all available forces, and cooperate fully with the main forces corps in the counterattack.”
“But, sir, these wounded soldiers are ordinary infantry, and they may not only fail to help, but also affect our attack efficiency.”
Hearing this, Kara frowned and pulled Baron Yeste to the other side of the fountain in front of everyone.
At this time, under the cover of the fountain’s splashing water sound.
Although the two of them lowered their voices, for Taylor, the Tier 5 powerhouse beside Leo Ray, it was no different from shouting with a megaphone next to him.
With Taylor’s simultaneous interpretation, Leo Ray quickly understood the content of their conversation and even grasped the nature of their relationship.
It turns out that Vice Captain Kara is the family servant of Team Captain Baron Yeste, and the two of them have grown up together since childhood.
To prove that Baron Yeste only obeys orders and doesn’t know how to adapt, Kara even brought up some incidents from their childhood.
After that, she complained that Baron Yeste did not take the initiative to fight last night, but obediently followed orders and took on the task of the reserve team.
Otherwise, the main forces corps would not have been defeated by the enemy.
“A noble mage young master who sticks to the old ways and a loyal heavy armored female knight, huh? This combination is quite interesting, but at the same time, we can also see that this Tier 3 female knight is indeed very confident in her own and her subordinates’ abilities.” With a faint smile, Leo Ray continued to listen..
