Chapter 540: The Charge that Began In An Instant
After the army’s arrangement was completed, Kant pulled out the Sword of King and pointed to the west, giving the order loudly, “Charge!”
Kant’s voice, which had been augmented with extraordinary power, spread throughout the entire cavalry.
The 250 Swadian Royal Knights, 240 Sarleon Lion Knights, and 500 Mamlukes held the four-meter-long lances in their hands that was hung diagonally on their warhorse at the same time. They pointed it diagonally towards the sky and shouted at the same time,
“Charge!”
“Charge!”
“Charge!”
The sound was as loud as thunder, shaking the tiles on the houses in the center of Lionheart City.
The sound was so loud that it spread throughout the entire Lionheart City.
The aura of the legions suddenly rose, shaking the dark clouds in the sky.
The 990 iron knights started to move slowly, and their speed gradually increased!
The level 5 cavalries from the system and the even more powerful level 6 knights possessed the best riding skills. They could control the warhorse like an arm and a finger, and they were superb.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The sound of the horses’ hooves gathered together, and it was no longer the clatter of the hooves. It was like a huge iron hammer striking the earth in a regular manner, causing the entire central area of Lionheart City to feel the regular vibrations.
The Swadian Royal Knights, the Sarleon Lion Knights, and Mamlukes were all wearing full-body heavy metal armor. The Swadian Royal Knights and the Sarleon Lion Knights were wearing different types of plate armor, while Mamlukes was wearing heavy Sarrandian chain mail.
These armors were from the system, so there was no need to say anything more about their excellent forging and strong defensive abilities.
Under the gloomy sky, their armor that was supposed to be s.h.i.+ning with silver light now looked silver-gray. The 990-galloping cavalries were like a silver-gray torrent, rus.h.i.+ng toward the west.
Woo… woo… woo…
Kant was in the middle of the cavalries. He took down the “Commanding Power” horn from his waist and blew it hard.
As the “Commanding Power” horn blew, the morale of the cavalries within 500 meters of Kant began to rise. At the same time, the cavalry began to enter an “excited” status.
The Swadian Royal Knights, the Sarleon Lion Knights, and Mamlukes all had blood rus.h.i.+ng through their bodies. At this moment, their eyes were filled with fanaticism. They could not help but shout,
“Kill! For the honor of His Highness Kant!”
“Kill! For the honor of His Highness Kant!”
“Kill! For the honor of His Highness Kant!”
This voice pierced through the clouds and cracked the rocks. Many civilians in the central city of Lionheart City, who were hiding in their houses, could not help but tremble in fear. Many of them could not control themselves and were terrified.
In just a short while, the morale of the 990 cavalries had reached its peak status.
The cape of “Glory, Bright Red Movement”, which had been fluttering slowly behind Kant or even a strong wind could not make it shake more violently, began to dance fiercely.
“Glory, Bright Red Movement” was a piece of battlefield equipment. At this time, the two armies had already begun to confront each other. The East-West Main Road of Lionheart City had become a battlefield.
“Glory, Bright Red Movement” pa.s.sive special effect, “Bright Red Movement”, was directly triggered. A faint, hazy, and faint red halo suddenly spread out from the cloak that was fluttering fiercely behind Kant.
This faint red halo covered an area of 1,000 meters, completely covering the 990 knights led by Kant.
Shrouded in this faint red halo, the 990 cavalries’ aura suddenly increased.
The strength of all the cavalry increased by 50% at the same time.
Then, Kant unhesitatingly activated the active special effect of the “Glory, Bright Red Movement”, “Blood Thirst”. The strength of the 990 cavalries increased by 100% again.
This was an extremely strong buff.
With their current strength, they were completely capable of dealing with the three of themselves from before!
Although “Blood Thirst” would reduce the soldiers’ defensive power, when two cavalry troop charged at the same time, their defensive power wouldn’t be of much use.
Originally, the morale that had been raised to the peak by the “Commanding Power” horn could only last for ten minutes before dropping. But now, in the shallow red halo, their morale would forever be at its highest status and wouldn’t change until death!
This was also the terrifying pa.s.sive effect of the battlefield equipment, the “Glory, Bright Red Movement”.
Just as Kant’s cavalry unit started to move, the knight orders of the War Temple on the West Main Road also started to charge.
“Charge, for the honor of the G.o.d of War, Edmund!”
“Charge, for the honor of the G.o.d of War, Edmund!”
“Charge, for the honor of the G.o.d of War, Edmund!”
Four thousand knights, including four hundred grand knights, shouted together. Their voices were not inferior to the 990 cavalries led by Kant, whose individual strength surpa.s.sed theirs.
Although the residents of Lionheart City could not see it, they could know that two extremely powerful heavy cavalry legions were about to fight in Lionheart City.
This was because the voices of the two heavy cavalry legions had spread throughout the city and even made their blood boil.
The 4,000 knights in blood-red armor charged forward like a still blood-red river, suddenly roaring.
This blood-red river gradually sped up and swept towards the east.
Due to the formation that was advantageous for the charge, the distance between the two armies was only a few hundred meters.
However, such a long distance was enough for the two strong heavy cavalry troops to enter their charging stance.
On the East-West Main Road, silver-gray torrents surged from the east to the west while the blood-red river swept from the west to the east.
Their speed was extremely fast.
Soon, the two armies met!
Thunder!
A bolt of lightning suddenly flashed, instantly illuminating the sky and earth.
Boom!
A huge thunder sounded, as if it wanted to turn the entire Lionheart City upside down.
At the moment the two armies met.
Between the sky and earth, heavy rain poured down.
This was a downpour!
The rain fell heavily, and the raindrops were as big as beans.
The rain fell on the faces of the two heavy cavalry generals who were charging at high speed, causing them to feel pain.
The dense rain line caused the charging cavalry’s vision to become hazy.
However, this was unable to extinguish their burning desire to kill.
At the instant the rain poured down, the lightning flashed and rumbled, the first row of Swadian Royal Knights clashed with the first row of the knights of G.o.d of War.
This was the moment of confrontation between the two legions!
