After breaking through, the Red Maple Cavalry followed the gap in the defense line and accidentally ran into the depths of the Sika Kingdom's defense line, and was almost surrounded.
What followed was a crazy attack, which successfully disrupted the situation, but Mario failed to keep up due to an oversight and fell behind.
Among the dead bodies on the ground and the flames igniting around him, Mario rode on his horse and looked at the darkness in front, back, left and right. There were sounds of fighting and roaring in the darkness. He felt a little frightened and was really not sure where to go. It's better to walk.
Looking back, he saw three men and four horses following him. This was the only strength left in his team. The rest were either dead or separated.
Alas, this battle is fought... Even if there are four men with three horses... Now what's the use of having an extra horse
Mario was distressed and grabbed his head, but he didn't catch any hair at all, just his bare helmet.
ah! ! !
The itching on his scalp made Mario want to go crazy. He really had the urge to throw away his helmet and roll on the ground to scratch it. But now he is an officer and a squad leader after all, and he cannot do whatever he wants like before.
Really want to die...
Mario angrily scratched the horse's head under his crotch, causing the horse to snort and shake its head in confusion.
Mario was scratching hard and thinking about which direction to go next, when suddenly there was a sound next to him.
"who!"
Mario instantly drew his sword and looked over, and the rest of his men followed suit.
Then I saw a "corpse" standing in the pile of dead people. The other party came closer with his hands raised and said: "Don't attack, Alliance people!"
"Which team is that from?" Mario asked seriously, not choosing to believe the other party easily.
"I used to work in Newburgh. After the war in Newburg, I was transferred to the outpost near the Reef Fort. A few days ago, the outpost was attacked by Sika people and was injured. I spent a few days in the Reef Fort to recover and recover. We were incorporated into the 2nd Brigade of the Glory Regiment of the 6th Legion of the Fourth Allied Army. Just now our regiment was sent out to support the trapped team, but we encountered Sika Lao's cavalry cooperating with the wizards to attack. They all died, and I was the only one left. "Corpse" said.
After hearing this, Mario became slightly less vigilant. After all, the experiences the other party mentioned were not easy to fabricate. He calmed down and asked, "What's the name of your group leader?"
"Tom Shuster." The other party replied.
"No, why do I remember his name is James Traffield?" Mario raised his eyebrows and said with a serious expression, "Are you lying to me?"
"No, no, no." "Corpse" shook his head quickly, with an innocent look on his face, "Sir, our leader is really called Tom Shuster. I don't know James Trafel at all."
"Really? That's a coincidence, I don't know him either." Mario said. Just now he just wanted to deceive, but now it is basically confirmed that the "corpse" is not an enemy.
"Huh?" "Corpse" was a little unable to react.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Mario said, looking at the body, and seeing that the other person was about the same age as him, he asked, "Can you tell me your name?"
"I...my name is Frank, Frank Dice." "Corpse" said.
"Very good, Frank." Mario said, "Since all the people in your regiment are dead and there is no commander, please follow me for now. I just have an extra horse."
"Yes, sir." Frank responded quickly, knowing very well that in such a chaotic battlefield, the more people there are, the greater the chance of survival.
When he got on the horse, Frank seemed to remember something, and he spoke a little embarrassedly and said to Mario: "My lord... aren't you afraid of my bad luck? Things happen to me wherever I go, from Newburgh to the Reef. Fort sentry point and then to the glorious regiment, in case it drags you down... "
"Just you?" Mario glanced at Frank with disdain, "I tell you, no matter how unlucky you are, I'm not afraid. I was a first-class soldier three days ago, and after a fall, I became a first-class captain— No matter how unlucky you are, can you still beat my luck?"
"this… "
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. We can't afford to waste time. Let's find a way to get out of here. After all, staying in one place for a long time is not a good thing." Mario pointed forward with his sword and asked for advice, "Let's start from this How about exploring further in the direction?"
"I think it's safer to explore from this direction." Frank pointed to the left direction and whispered.
"Have you passed by?" Mario asked.
"No, but I think..." Frank said, but was interrupted before he could finish.
"What do you think? I'm the commander here. Listen to me, just go in this direction." Mario insisted on his choice, whipped the horse and moved forward. The three men followed, and Frank had no choice but to follow.
A group of five people walked forward, about a few hundred meters away, and walked around a collapsed outpost, with a wide view in front of them.
I saw in the open space in front of me, there were more than a hundred powerful magic knights wearing gorgeous armor and riding horses.
Mario's eyes suddenly widened and he recognized it. This was the same magic-equipped cavalry brigade that initially forced the Red Maple Cavalry to break out. They had managed to get away from it before, but now they bumped into it again.
They didn't dare to fight as a group before, let alone his half-broken team now.
this…
Mario breathed heavily, and the magic cavalry brigade in front looked at them with cold eyes. At this time, Mario heard Frank picked up from behind mutter in a low voice: "I just said, you can't go in this direction..."
"Shut up! Run away!" Mario reacted, shouted angrily, quickly turned the horse's head and ran towards the left, followed quickly by three of his men and Frank.
The team of magic knights from the Sika Kingdom were stunned for a moment, a little hesitant to eat the "snacks" delivered to their door. There were only five of them, so it shouldn't be a trap, but it was not worth their while.
After a few seconds, the captain of the magic cavalry brigade gave the order after thinking: Attack!
"yes!"
"Wow!"
Many magic knights quickly rode out to chase him, constantly closing the distance with Mario.
At the same time, in a depression in front of Mario's escape, three groups of magic knights from the Soma Alliance were lurking.
A gray-robed figure flew over, landed directly in front of the officer commanding the team, and said a few words.
"Huh?" the officer said with some confusion, "What, the target group of magic knights has taken action and is approaching us? Haven't we not had time to release the bait yet? Forget it, don't care, attack, come up to us. , eat them!”
"yes!"
"Wow!" Three teams of magic knights quickly jumped out of the depression, activated the magic patterns on their armor, and accelerated their charge.
Mario, who was fleeing at this time, looked at the magic pattern light that suddenly lit up in front of him, and couldn't help shouting: "I... I'm going!"
