After Niubao stacked up a full handful of Demon Knives, she switched to another one and continued stacking, getting closer and closer to her ultimate goal.
Even though she had gained a brand new insight last night and promised herself she would come here today to practice her martial arts, now that she was actually charging into enemy lines, she felt…the Snake Abyss Sword was still the best!
There was no need to use her fists against mere grunts.
The technique she had realized was a special combat technique specifically designed for dealing with true experts. This was targeted training. Because Niubao had discovered that she was still far too powerless when facing real masters.
However, Niubao’s ability to crush weaklings was quite outstanding, on par with Fabiana’s.
After all, Niubao was also a jack-of-all-trades build, with evenly distributed attribute points. She knew a little bit of everything, but wasn’t truly proficient in anything.
Seeing Mentor Anna surrounded and attacked by two Great Knights, Mino hurried over to provide support.
The strength of the Grand Knight Commander of the West Sea was at a delicate level.
Their overall strength was slightly above Niubao and Fabiana’s, but not enough to completely overwhelm Cow Cow or the War Marshal.
Moreover, Niubao had just realized her own Shura Battle Qi. Combined with Samimi’s Amplification Spell Formula, if she pushed hard, there was a high probability she could win.
If she could defeat the Grand Knight Commander of the West Sea, it would be an invaluable combat experience for Mino.
Because she had encountered too many ruthless opponents before, and Cow Cow had been beaten quite miserably. She was in dire need of a major victory to regain her confidence.
Mino was different from Samimi.
Samimi was a PvP expert, full of dirty tricks and cheap shots. Ironically, she sometimes couldn’t even handle weak opponents properly.
She had been researching some kind of high-damage Cluster Bomb Magic before, only to forget about it the next day.
Now her research focus had shifted entirely to developing the 【Flame Sword·Shalum】.
Could that Cluster Bomb Magic ever compare to the coolness of being her doppelganger Melee Cleric?
Not a chance!
It was fair to say that Shalum was Samimi’s precious little daughter, equivalent to a newly created New Game Plus save file, allowing her to embark on a brand new career path.
“Henry, can you handle this alone?”
The Wind Whisper Knight Kress also noticed the Beastman Nun who was launching a surprise attack.
“Get lost. Don’t steal my glory. I can handle this little girl myself.”
Frost Blade Knight Henry replied.
But before he could finish, Wind Whisper Knight Kress had already yanked his reins and charged his horse toward the Beastman Nun. He slammed into her with a head-on horse charge.
As an aside, the horses in our Otherworld weren’t ordinary horses either.
The warhorses ridden by these Elite Knights were carefully selected. Their entire bodies were muscular, strong as bulls, and they were clad in horse armor even thicker than that of an average knight.
When a heavy cavalry warhorse charged in like that, it felt just like a runaway dump truck.
Combined with the ultra-long lances in the knights’ hands, they swept away everything in their path.
This was far more impressive than knights in reality.
It wasn’t just that the bodies of people from the Otherworld were different; the bodies of their horses were also extraordinary.
And this kind of mutation only occurred in horses.
The stray cats and dogs on the roadside were still cute; they hadn’t become this awesome.
So when dealing with a Great Knight, you weren’t just up against him personally; his horse was also a carefully chosen tyrant among horses.
Just now, Fabiana had been knocked sideways and dizzy by the enemy’s warhorse.
Her own Flaming Skeleton Horse was completely incapable of contending with the enemy’s warhorse.
After all, how could a skeleton frame compete with those chiseled muscles?
But despite all that…
“ROOOOAR!!!”
The warhorse beneath Wind Whisper Knight Kress suddenly let out a terrible screech, convulsed violently, and came to an abrupt halt, refusing to take another step forward.
That wasn’t all.
He also noticed that all the horses around him were starting to go mad. Many horses even flipped over, dragging their knights down with them.
The fact that his own warhorse had only stopped was a testament to its strong will.
“What is this?!”
Wind Whisper Kress exclaimed in shock.
He could feel his warhorse trembling in fear, terrified of something.
He looked ahead.
The Beastman Nun was walking through the chaotic battlefield as if she were taking a stroll, as if she were one with the war itself.
The feeling she gave was as comfortable as if she were at home.
It was she who had used some unknown power to literally scare the piss out of all the surrounding horses.
“A wild beast…”
Wind Whisper Kress felt a pang of regret. He slowly dismounted from his beloved horse and stood in front of it, blocking the path ahead.
It seemed he had drawn the short straw.
He should have been the one to deal with the Undead Warlord Anna. This Beastman Nun was the true strongest fighter on the enemy side.
Mino noticed the Wind Whisper Knight Commander. Her expert radar began flashing immediately.
She raised her hand and slit open a Void Crack, sheathing the Snake Abyss Sword inside. She then assumed a combat stance.
“?”
Wind Whisper Kress frowned deeply at this inexplicable action.
Was she looking down on him?
Or what was she doing?
This was a life-or-death duel. No one would show mercy, unless their brains were full of water.
But Half-Beasts generally had problems with their brains, so making such an arrogant and foolish move was normal.
Wind Whisper Kress raised his rapier horizontally, aiming it at the empty-handed Beastman Nun.
The Beastman Nun’s gaze was firm, her expression calm. She was different from every Half-Beast he had ever encountered before.
Because most Half-Beasts were those types with extremely hyperactive spirits, constantly in a frenzy until they collapsed from exhaustion.
But the feeling this Beastman Nun gave off was completely different from ordinary Half-Beasts.
In fact, her emotions were calmer than everyone else present on the battlefield.
The surrounding mercenaries and Skeleton Knights were locked in a merciless slaughter. Everyone’s emotions were becoming extremely bloodthirsty and狂暴, except for her; she was completely unaffected.
Normally, Half-Beasts would go berserk at the sight of blood. It was a trait imprinted in their genes.
“Come on.”
Wind Whisper Kress was very conservative. He didn’t rush his attack.
But if you won’t attack, Niubao wouldn’t attack either.
The two of them just stood there like statues, staring at each other, waiting to see who would crack first.
It was a psychological battle.
However, the psychological pressure on Wind Whisper Kress was definitely much greater than it was on Niubao.
Because there were too many Half-Beast mercenaries from the West Sea.
He had seen far too many Half-Beast Mad Berserkers.
Suddenly having an exceptionally calm Beastman Nun pop up was like seeing an alien.
And that wasn’t the only thing that was nerve-wracking…
“Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!”
The massive gates of the Knight Academy City slowly swung open.
The 300 Giant Whale Knights discarded their bows and arrows, picked up their swords and shields again, mounted their warhorses, and charged out of the city gates like a sharp dagger.
Even though there were only 300 cavalrymen, they projected the imposing momentum of a mighty army of thousands!
There was no choice.
Seeing their War Marshal trapped in an encirclement, they couldn’t just continue to hide behind the safe city walls and watch the show.
Not everyone was as cautious as the Miworm.
However, Samimi had actually already secretly suggested this to the Knight King Shia.
At this moment, the best choice was to have everyone continue guarding the city. They shouldn’t leave the city so easily.
But Knight King Shia still shook his head and agreed to the Giant Whale Knights’ request to ride out and fight.
“Guarding an empty city is meaningless.”
“Let them go.”
