Chapter 399: Knight Mi Gen's Mockery!

~7 min read 1,310 words

Soon, the third wave of troops launched, beginning to cross the river on rafts.

Because their teammates had taken the lead, the landing of this third wave proceeded very smoothly, encountering no resistance.

Of course, slacking off to avoid battle was impossible; as soon as they landed successfully, battle-supervising guards immediately urged them to advance and join the battlefield.

With the successive arrival of reinforcements from the third wave of noble teams, the plight of the serf soldiers ahead finally eased slightly.

Of course, seeing this, the Wolf Knights on the opposite side, just as the great nobles had predicted, abandoned their attacks on the legion guards and began furiously harvesting the serf soldiers.

Every charge of theirs swept away a vast swath of serf soldiers; there was not a single enemy who could last even one round.

This scene, like wolves entering a flock of sheep, made the crowd of minor nobles grind their teeth in anger.

Although the serf soldiers were as worthless as straw, they were still their foundation.

Of course, where there is sorrow, there is also joy.

The smiles of the minor nobles had actually shifted onto the great nobles.

Seeing that the Wolf Knights had no time to attend to their subordinates, the corners of the great nobles' mouths curled up slightly.

Of course, they did not dare to laugh openly in triumph; after all, a little pretense was still necessary.

So, everyone was pretending, making the atmosphere in this area seem somewhat eerie.

"Eh, what's going on? Look at that team over there!"

"Could it be cowardice? Do they want to withdraw from the battlefield?"

"That shouldn't be it! If they were cowardly and withdrawing, wouldn't they be moving away from the stone bridge? They are heading toward the stone bridge, aren't they?!"

But just then, a cry of surprise broke the eerie atmosphere among the great nobles.

It turned out that a unique minor noble team had appeared on the opposite side.

Other minor noble teams, after completing the river crossing, had all advanced straight ahead to join the battlefield.

And this was the rule, to prevent certain teams from being cowardly and deliberately hiding in areas with fewer people.

But now, that team on the opposite side was moving laterally, already violating the rule.

Under normal circumstances, the President should be furious at this moment, asking whose subordinate that team violating the rules belonged to.

But the problem was, this team was not heading toward an area far from the battlefield; instead, it was approaching the core of this battlefield.

That is, the direction of the stone bridge where the fighting was most intense.

So, if you were to say they were cowardly, that simply did not hold up.

Instead, the area around that stone bridge was the Wolf Knights' range of activity, making it the most dangerous zone.

That is why the great nobles were so surprised.

What this minor noble team was doing now was not only not cowardly, but extremely bold, the kind of recklessness that disregarded life itself.

"This... this... Gervas, did your subordinates get lost?"

At this moment, a few people were actually more excited than the great nobles; naturally, these were Mi Er, Ian, and others.

Because that bold team, heading straight toward the center of the 'storm,' was indeed their subordinates.

Originally, everyone had ordered their subordinates to stick close to Gervas's team, naturally hoping to share in the meat.

But somehow, Knight Lei Meng had led the soldiers to move toward the location of the Wolf Knights.

If the Wolf Knights took notice of them, could their subordinates survive?

Regarding the combat power of those Wolf Knights, their subordinates probably had no ability to resist at all.

"They haven't gotten lost! They are heading toward the stone bridge!" At this moment, Gervas's answer reached everyone's ears.

"This... this... but Gervas, there are Wolf Knights there!"

The few of them were almost crying from anxiety.

This was all their family assets!

"That's right, I am preparing to deal with those Wolf Knights. Don't you all want merit? As long as the Wolf Knights are eliminated, the merit will definitely be significant!" Gervas smiled slightly.

But after hearing this, Mi Er and others felt terrible.

We certainly know the merit will be significant.

But this is too significant.

Will we get stuffed to death?

"Everyone, do you still not trust me, Gervas? Would I joke with my own subordinates?"

Seeing the few fellows looking as if they were about to die, Gervas spoke in a bad mood.

And upon hearing this, Mi Er and others, while still worried, also came to their senses.

Indeed, compared to Gervas's subordinates, their own few serf soldiers were truly worthless.

So, if even Gervas was not afraid, what were they afraid of?

Thus, the few nobles said no more, but stared fixedly at the battlefield opposite, muttering prayers for the God of Glory's blessing and such words.

Just then, Lei Meng, leading the Storm Legion and the subordinates of Mi Er and others, arrived near the stone bridge, a mere one hundred and fifty meters away from those Wolf Knights.

Then, under everyone's gaze, Lei Meng began arranging the teams to form a formation.

One hundred spearmen stood at the very front of the team, while swordsmen and the guards of Mi Er and others stood behind the spearmen.

And since their position was close to the riverbank, they did not need to worry about the flanks being attacked by the Wolf Knights.

Because the mudflats on both the left and right sides were muddy, absolutely not an ideal advance route for cavalry.

Once the formation was confirmed complete, Lei Meng and others made an action that left the great nobles dumbfounded.

They saw Lei Meng lead Knight Mi Gen to the very front of the spear formation, then look toward the Wolf Knights fighting a hundred-plus meters away.

"Hey! Green-skin monsters! Look here! Yes, I'm talking to you green-skin monsters riding those ugly beasts! Tell me, since you all have two arms supporting one head, why are you green-skin monsters so ugly? That green skin of yours is just like a lizard's, making people vomit when they see it."

"Also, look at those fangs of yours; they actually grow outside your mouth. Tell me, when you eat meat, do the chunks of meat hang on them?"

"If that's the case, it's truly enviable; when you can't finish them, you can just hang them on your fangs to dry into jerky!"

One must admit, provoking the enemy before battle is Knight Mi Gen's specialty, which is precisely why he was sent to cross the river with Lei Meng to the opposite shore.

Facing his top-tier provocation, the Wolf Knights instantly erupted.

Their knights had long noticed this peculiar human squad.

After all, they were the only two-legged sheep daring to approach them voluntarily!

Originally, they intended to deal with the group of two-legged sheep beside them before charging over to finish these ones.

Who would have thought these two-legged sheep couldn't wait to seek death, launching provocations against the mighty Tribal Wolf Knights.

Instantly, the Wolf Knights' fury surged.

Roar, roar, roar!

"Haha! Look, look, why get angry so quickly? I'm just speaking the truth! If you really can't accept it, then come and bite me! I'll wait right here for you; whoever doesn't come is a grandson!"

Facing the Wolf Knights' roars, Knight Mi Gen still wore that beg-for-a-beating expression.

This time, he had truly poked the hornet's nest.

The Wolf Knights could no longer care about the other serf soldiers beside them; they turned their spears directly toward Knight Mi Gen and the others.

"Roar! Tribal Wolf Knights, all follow me! First, kill those damn two-legged sheep and make them regret daring to offend us Wolf Knights!"
