Chapter 99 - Charge
Chapter 99: Charge
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Attack your enemies’ weakness with your strength.”
His ancestor’s words made a lot of sense. Abel was well aware of his weaknesses and his strengths. His immense physical power was his strength, while his weaknesses were his lack of experience in terms of knight training.
“It’s the divine combat qi!” Cried 2 of the two knights with a horrified emotion.
Regular cavalry didn’t know what the power of golden combat qi was, but these royal knights must have heard about it.
The knights then decided to utilize the golden armor cavalry to defend against Abel’s charge. Hence, the two knights quickly looked at each other and backed away their horses.
“Knight’s charging on the horse! Abel shouted again, a wave of combat qi shot out from his body and rushed towards his warhorse. The speed of the warhorse suddenly doubled. The deformed combat qi of Abel increased the “Knight’s charging on the horse technique” from 50% acceleration to 100%.
The war horse looked like it had disappeared during the process of acceleration. Soon it had appeared in front of the cavalry with golden armor, Abel ruthlessly struck his sword on their bodies. No matter how tough their golden armors were, the extreme force of Abel’s strike was like a knife slashing a balloon, blasting the body of that cavalry into pieces.
Abel appeared out of the smoke like the god of death. His power of the will was fully unleashed. He could see his surroundings extremely clearly. Abel then stuck again horizontally. 2 Cavalry in golden armor had been hit with pieces of human organ from the blast of Abel’s first strike. They had been hit so hard that their defense was fully exposed, and before they even had time to react, Abel had already cut their waist in half.
As Abel’s warhorse stepped over the two dead bodies, he was met with another cavalry in golden armor. This time, Abel had already slowed down. The cavalry had a fast reaction, and he quickly took out the long rifle on his hands and stabbed towards Abel with a scream. Abel was alerted through his power of will, and his body reacted naturally. With a little incline, the long spear went under Abel’s left armpit, and it was trapped by Abel’s squeezed with his armpit. Abel then held his ice magic sword high above, and screamed: “To behead!”.
At the moment, when the body of the beheaded cavalry fell, Abel kicked forward with his left foot from the saddle. The corpse as kicked towards the rear of another cavalry. He was then knocked off his horse. Afterward, Abel’s warhorse continued to speed forward, and harshly stepped on top of the fallen Calvary, penetrating his ribs and entered his chest.
As Abel was losing his speed on the horse, he was surrounded by more golden armored cavalry. Abel then surged his combat qi once again, the blue flash from the magic ice sword suddenly turned into a gold color. At this time, Abel was completely relying on his instinct to continue fighting; his power of the will was commanding his left hand to block while commanding his right hand in waving the sword. Regardless of his opponents were defending or not, the result would be the same.
Abel blocked the long spear strikes from the left side as he swiftly glided through the long spears with a big sword in his right hand. When the flash of blue light from Abel’s sword struck upon the long spears of a Calvary, the ice magic power of the sword latched on to his body, slowing his movement down. When Abel wanted to add another strike to end his life, three more long spears had already appeared in front of him. Abel immensely slashed them away with his sword. In a flash of blue light, those 3 Calvary’s bodies were also filled with frost and slowed down.
Due to the four golden cavalry slowing down, it made their attack position a big mess. Abel used this opportunity to charge through the cavalry’s defense and successfully made it through their defensive position. He quickly regrouped with Loraine and his two stewards.
“Master Abel! The twenty knights were so excited by Abel’s return that they split a passage in the defensive formation as Abel rushed into the defensive circle.
Abel did not reply, but simply dismounted and rushed into the cart where the equipment was stored. He promptly took out Harry’s bow, and with a look of reverence in his face, drew arrows to his bow, fired arrows, and continued to draw arrows to his bow. As Abel continued rapidly firing at the cavalry, more and more cavalry were shot down off their horses.
“Defensive position! A succession of arrows fell on the cavalry, causing the cavalry to cry out in terror and get into their position rapidly, soon the group of Calvary had formed their battle formation in front of Abel. The ordinary golden armor Calvary had their shield in front of them in their formation, defending from all directions with two knights were in the middle.
At this moment The Lord of Marshall arrived followed by the ten black-armored warriors. When the two knights in the line of defense saw The Lord of Marshall, they quickly took a flare out of their arms, lit it quickly, and threw it into the air.
“Royal cavalry, how dare you all attack the nobles’ coat of arms without any specific reasoning!” yelled The Lord of Marshall with a gloomy emotion.
“I’ve been ordered to take them back for investigation, and if they resist, they’ll face the wrath of the royal family!” Shouted the royal knight in the line of the troops.
Abel, however, no longer cared about what had happened before. Instead, he took the opportunity and told his two stewards beside him, “Help me put on my armor!”
Abel shook off the flesh of those he killed from his body. When Loraine saw the blood on Abel’s body, she was immediately frightened. Abel then quickly whispered, “Loraine, get back in the carriage.”
Loraine looked steadily at Abel with her eyes and shook her head firmly.
“Black Wind, keep an eye on Loraine for me,” Abel ordered while looking towards Black Wind.
Within a flash, Black Wind was next to Loraine, and the injury of his left leg didn’t appear to be too serious.
The two stewards were extremely fast. Within a few moments, they had already equipped all of the armor onto Abel. Abel then took the 300-pound knight’s rifle from the horse carriage and mounted onto his warhorse.
“Uncle Marshall, don’t bother trying to reason with them. Something must have happened in the royal family, and they wanted to get rid of outsiders.”
Abel knew by this time that King Astor was probably dead. Within the closed down Bakong City, power was very important. The best way to gain power was to kill off your threats.
Abel and his group had just been caught in the middle of this storm. Someone must have sent the personal weapons Abel had brought along with him as a threat. That was what leads to this situation at hand.
“Follow along with my attack!!” With Abel’s great cry, he rode his horses directly into the battle line of the golden armored cavalry.
As Abel was wearing armor, he no longer had to worry about protecting himself, alongside his 5-meter long lance, which was able to exert his power effectively.
When the golden combat qi surged once again, the qi pressure of Abel’s palm began to spread a wave of golden combat qi towards his long spear. The golden combat qi quickly surrounded the 5-meter knight’s rifle. It had completely turned into a gold color.
“Qi defense! With a loud cry, the two knights in the royal line of battle placed their four hands onto their shields. On the other hand, all of the gold armored cavalries flashed their combat qi as they fluttered and rushed towards the two knights with all their might.
At this moment, the two royal knights were surrounded by the white combat qi from all four sides of their shields. It seemed that the two royal knights just wanted to hold out until their backup arrives. They seemed to completely ignore the problem of the amount of combat qi on the cavalry behind them, as they focused all their combat qi in defending their battle formation.
With Abel in front and twenty knight servants behind him, their task was to wait for Abel to break up the enemy’s defenses and then let the knight servants handle the killings.
Abel looked towards the battle formation with a cold sneer. He lifted his knight’s long spear.
He then harshly struck down, “Bang!”
Many people in the battle formation were shaken so hard by Abel’s force that they began spitting fresh blood out of their mouth, but they persisted, and the battle formation was still not broken yet.
Abel, too, was a little surprised at the outcome. His strength was now about three thousand pounds, and with the golden combat qi quadrupling, it’s power. Abel didn’t even use all of his power in his last attack, but the power that it had dealt to his enemies was already extremely powerful.
He used his full force to make a second strike. When the 5-meter long spear struck down from mid-air, it seemed to warped the body of the long spear, unleashing an explosion of air rushing towards the Calvary’s shields. 2 of the Calvary behind the shield had exploded like a balloon, blasting into mid-air with fresh blood gushing out of their mouth. 4 of their shields had also been blasted off, with the magic power of the rune in Abel’s long spear, and the shields had been blasted away for 10 meters before hitting the ground
“Charge! With the cry of Abel, the twenty knights rushed forward behind him. The Lord of Marshall, who was accompanied by his ten black armored warriors, also rushed from the other side into the already scattered battle formation of the Calvary.
With Abel’s massive strike, it had already more or less caused this golden armored cavalry to suffer from internal injuries. With their military strength already massively lowered, the following scene was not even considered as a battle. It was more like a slaughter. No matter if it was only the 20 knights or the ten black armored warriors, they were all veterans in these battles. With their eyes filled with no remorse, they held out their weapons on their hands and ended their opponent’s life with the most efficient method to save their energy.
