Chapter 50

Leader Rike naturally saw it too!

"Where did these centaurs get such good armor?"

Leader Rike was equally puzzled in his heart.

When pursuing, he had heard the Kobolds mention centaurs.

However, he didn't take it to heart.

The combat power of centaur warriors was indeed strong.

But compared to the ever-victorious Lion Tribe warriors, it was still far inferior.

But now, this attire of the centaur warriors made Leader Rike feel a bit uneasy.

"My lord, do you want to talk to them?"

The Lion-man warrior beside Leader Rike said.

"Prepare!"

And at this time, on the opposite side of the plain, the Centaur Chieftain had already issued an order.

Immediately, the upper bodies of all the centaurs began to lean forward; this was the posture for a charge!

"Kill!"

The Centaur Chieftain shouted loudly.

Following closely, on the plain, all the centaur warriors shouted loudly at the same time and charged toward the Lion Tribe warriors on the opposite side of the plain!

The great battle was on the verge of breaking out! ===== CHAPTER 117 =====

"They actually dared to take the initiative to attack!"

On the opposite side of the plain, the Lion-man beside Leader Rike saw the centaurs lined up in a long line and charging over, and couldn't help but be shocked.

The centaur warriors happened to be standing opposite the sun's rays, and that bright armor was illuminated by the sun, turning these 1,000 centaurs into a dazzling beam of light!

At this moment, this beam of light was charging over in a grand manner!

The plain was only a few kilometers wide; it wouldn't take long for the centaur warriors to charge over!

Leader Rike roared loudly:

"Go up, kill them all!"

Even though the armor on the centaur warriors made Leader Rike feel somewhat uncertain, Leader Rike made a decision almost in an instant.

Fight!

As powerful Lion Tribe warriors, there was no such thing as retreating!

He was very decisive!

Hearing Leader Rike's words, the 1,000 brave and skilled Lion Tribe warriors let out roars at the same time, then stood up, took down the shields and weapons on their backs, held shields in one hand and weapons in the other, and charged toward the centaur warriors.

When they stood upright, their speed would not be much slower than when they were on all fours.

However, as orcs, they retained some characteristics of beasts; when on all fours, they would save a lot of effort when running.

So when these Lion Tribe people made long-distance raids, they would basically choose to be on all fours, and when fighting, they would all stand upright!

Standing upright and holding weapons was also the biggest difference between them and wild lions!

Their combat power would also rise several levels!

On this plain, two lines were rapidly approaching!

Whether it was the centaurs or the Lion Tribe warriors, they were constantly accelerating!

This plain, which was several kilometers wide, was enough for them to accelerate to their maximum speed!

Finally, the two lines approached!

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

On the plain, a large sound of throwing spears rang out.

When the distance was still one or two hundred meters, whether it was the centaurs or the Lion Tribe warriors, they all chose to throw spears!

The strength of both the centaurs and the Lion Tribe warriors was very great; during the rapid run, the force of the spears they threw was quite terrifying!

Even if these spears were made of wood, if the opponent used ordinary wooden shields to defend, they would be easily pierced through!

And then kill the warrior behind the shield!

The centaur warriors finished one round of spear throwing and immediately threw a second round!

Yes, they didn't do any defense at all!

Because their bodies were all covered in armor, and they also wore helmets on their heads to protect their eyes, protecting their entire bodies in all directions!

And the Lion Tribe warriors only had one chance to throw spears.

The distance was too short.

After one round of spears was thrown, they had to defend and also draw their weapons to fight!

The Lion Tribe warriors' spears landed on the armor of the centaur warriors, making a dull clashing sound.

On the plain, a large sound of clinking and clanging rang out.

But these spears made of wood simply couldn't pierce through the armor of the centaur warriors!

The charging centaur warriors didn't even slow down much!

The advantage of the centaur warriors' equipment was brought into full play!

And on the other side, the centaur warriors' first round of spears also attacked the Lion Tribe warriors.

Both sides were experts at throwing spears.

The Lion Tribe warriors raised their shields one after another to defend!

These Lion Tribe warriors were worthy of being battle-hardened warriors.

Ordinary warriors, when encountering dense spears, would often only hide their vital parts behind shields and leave it to fate!

But these Lion Tribe warriors each actively waved their shields to block the incoming spears!

Their shields were not made of iron.

They were also wooden shields, but the wood used was quite dense, and the front of the shield was also wrapped with a layer of leather.

This layer of leather looked like old leather that had been soaked in oil for a long time; the toughness of this kind of leather was quite terrifying, and it was not easy to burn through even with fire!

The leather also had mysterious symbols on it, which had good protection against magic!

The centaur warriors' spears were blocked by them using shields, making an exceptionally dull sound.

The protective nature of that layer of leather was indeed good.

The spears could at most poke holes in that layer of leather, but they couldn't break through the shield!

Only a few shields were pierced through by the centaurs' spears, but they didn't pose much threat to the Lion Tribe warriors behind.

Even so, there were still over a dozen Lion Tribe warriors who didn't block the spears, were hit by the spears, were seriously injured, and completely lost their combat power!

But this was enough to show the strength of the Lion Tribe warriors!

This was a head-on charge, and the reaction time was too short. If the centaur warriors threw spears at other tribes, even if the opponent had shield protection, they could at least kill hundreds of warriors of other tribes.

However, even if the Lion Tribe warriors were so powerful, they couldn't make up for the disadvantage in equipment.

Because the centaur warriors didn't need to defend, so less than a second after the first round of spears fell, the second round of spears arrived.

Many of those Lion Tribe warriors who had just blocked the first round of spears didn't have time to react at all and were hit by the second round of spears!

No, many of them didn't expect there to be a second round of spears at all!

In such a short time, didn't the centaurs need to defend?

So the Lion Tribe warriors were immediately knocked over by the spears in a large area!

Due to the excessive speed, many Lion Tribe warriors, after falling, had to tumble several times on the ground before stopping, and screams rose one after another!

The second round of spears directly crippled at least one-third of the Lion Tribe warriors!

Before both sides had engaged in close-quarters combat, more than one-third of the Lion Tribe warriors were already crippled.

Then, the centaur warriors, holding spears with iron spearheads, charged over!

A dull sound of impact rang out!

The centaur warriors' spears hit the shields of the remaining Lion Tribe warriors!

When the centaur warriors charged over at full speed after accelerating for several kilometers, the power carried by the spears with iron spearheads was simply too terrifying.

Even if the shields of these Lion Tribe warriors were covered with thick leather, they were pierced through by the spears with sharp iron spearheads. ===== CHAPTER 118 =====
