"Something's not right."
Madam Vasaki leaned to the side and said to Madam, "That person is not right."
Madam Vasaki narrowed her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "We cannot allow anything to happen at this moment."
Madam Vasaki immediately understood what he meant. Yuna spurred his horse forward and charged forward. The knight in front of him was charging forward with even greater speed. However, it was obvious that the knight's spear was not steady and was far behind the first knight's.
It seemed that all of his strength was focused on charging towards Yuna. The angle of the shield in his hand was very crooked and the direction of his spear was not aimed at Yuna.
Madam Vasaki's pupils shrank and she suddenly stood up. She raised her right hand and made a "push" motion towards the knight.
"Bang!" The knight on the horse was sent flying by a great force from the side.
His body was sent flying and his feet were caught in the stirrups. This caused him to lose his balance and fall head first to the ground.
However, at the moment when he was about to hit the ground, an invisible "air cushion" suddenly appeared from the ground and supported him. The galloping horse carried the knight's legs and continued to charge forward. However, in the next moment, the horse seemed to be held back by something and its speed suddenly decreased. In less than a few seconds, Madam Vasaki and her horse stopped their momentum.
Madam Vasaki wielded a wooden staff and used "Shadow Steps" to instantly appear in front of the knight. She waved her wooden staff and used it to push the knight's spear to the side. Madam Vasaki looked down at the knight and asked, "Who are you?"
Seeing that the spear was easily let go, Madam Vasaki immediately understood that her judgment was correct. There was definitely something wrong with this person.
Knights would never let go of their weapons so easily.
The entire theater was silent once again. They saw that the knight was suddenly sent flying in the middle of his charge. After that, a figure suddenly appeared beside him. This series of strange events caused the audience to stop talking and look towards the center of the theater.
"Dong!"
Yuna didn't care about the situation and immediately jumped down from his galloping horse.
His body forcibly stopped the huge inertia, and his feet left two deep marks on the ground. Then, he ran a few steps and arrived in front of Plenty. Yuna understood that for Plenty, who had lost a leg, to come personally, it must be a very serious matter!
Other than the shield and lance, he had no other weapons in his hands. So Yuna abandoned the lance, which made it difficult for him to move. Instead, he held the shield and charged towards Many. The long lance fell to the ground with a thud.
Madam Vasaki's ears twitched and her gaze was immediately attracted by the spear.
"Don't let him move!"
Many gave Yuna an order and strode towards the lance he threw on the ground with his wooden staff. He bent down and picked up the four-meter-long lance. His eyes narrowed in an instant.
The knight on the ground took off his helmet and looked around helplessly. Then, he looked at the surrounding grandstand. His face turned deathly pale!
"Clang clang clang clang …"
Fully-Armed guards immediately rushed over. This was Flora's order. She had sent her guard captain to maintain order as soon as possible. She had gone through many undead sieges with them, so she knew that when many people made such a decision, it meant that something had gone wrong!
Many of them looked at the knight, and the latter's gaze instantly became extremely frantic.
His eyes had lost their focus and were filled with helplessness and despair when he looked around. This was not what a knight should be showing.
He gestured for the soldiers to bring the knight down from the arena. Many of them switched the lance in their right hand to their left hand, and just like that, they walked up to the stands with their wooden staves.
That lance looked exactly the same as the one Yuna used before, but after nodding to Madam Vasaki, he raised the lance high and flat.
When he loosened his grip, the lance was firmly held in the air under Lady Vassagi's control. This scene immediately made the audience and the nobles sitting nearby realize the identity of this beautiful lady: a sorcerer!
The lance slowly spun in the air for two rounds. She then walked up to it, frowned, and lightly knocked on the middle of the wall with her knuckles.
"Crack!"
A clear cracking sound was heard, and a spider web-like crack spread out from the spot where the lady had knocked on the wall. The crack quickly covered the entire lance!
* Piak Piak Piak Piak * The pure wooden lance suddenly exploded. But when the splinters scattered in all directions and slowly stopped in mid-air under the effect of magic, the scene that appeared caused everyone to suck in a breath of cold air.
An iron spike!
Inside the lance, there was a long iron spike!
It extended all the way to the tip of the lance!
If the lance had pierced the knight, the consequences would be unimaginable!
If it was not for Lady Vasaki who stopped the knight's charge, the audience in the theater would have seen the tragedy of Yuna stabbing the knight into a meat skewer!
Princess Flora frowned as she looked at the lance. She immediately stood up and ordered her soldiers to take control of all the servants in the backstage of the theater. However, she received some bad news. One of the servants was found to have committed suicide by consuming poison!
"That's all for today."
Her Royal Highness immediately gave the order.
She didn't look too good. After asking the officials to announce the end of today's Aura Station duel, the princess didn't immediately return to the Sisyphean Palace. Instead, she went directly to the inns where the trolls were protecting and held a "secret meeting" with many people.
* * *
Noda's work went smoothly. The chief of the Rockhammer Dwarves personally received him. The result of the meeting was acceptable. Noda kept his ruffian attitude and conveyed his opinions in a more formal manner. The chief readily agreed to Noda's request to bring all the girls with him. He even ordered his tribesmen to deliver enough supplies for the team to return to Oditore safely.
Dao Gen had a private meeting with the patriarch, and he brought many of the blueprints to the old patriarch. The old patriarch's expression was similar to Dao Gen's. He held the stack of blueprints and looked at them for the whole night. The next day, he discussed with Dao Gen for almost half a day with his eyes red.
But just as the chief was about to ask Daugen to arrange a "visit group" to Oditore, a sudden news made Noda and his team stop at Rockhammer Fort. The Rockhammer tribe's territory was under attack!
According to the description, Noda and Daugen immediately understood that the attackers were the monsters they encountered on the road!
But with the dwarves' strength, it did not seem difficult to kill these guys?
Noda and Daugen did not take the news seriously. But the news that came the next day surprised them!
The monsters had attacked the villages on the outskirts of the Rockhammer tribe!
The dwarves were forced to withdraw and defend!
The chief immediately sent out the Rockhammer tribe's army — four teams of 500 strong infantry!
Noda and Daugen followed these troops down Kargath Mountain. They immediately understood why the dwarves, who were so powerful, were forced to defend!
Too many!
Too many!
The strange dogs hiding in the yellow smoke dyed the entire forest near Kargath Mountain Range with a layer of pale yellow!
And in the forest, "alien" magical beasts with tumors on the back of their heads appeared one after another. They seemed to be obeying orders and collectively attacked the villages. There were 50 warriors in each village, but they could not fight against the thousands of monsters!
They came and went like the wind, and their speed was frighteningly fast. Although the magical beasts were not strong, they relied on their advantage in numbers to kill the brave dwarven warriors one after another!
When Noda and the reinforcements arrived at the village, the warriors in the village could not hold on any longer!
The guards that Noda brought with him were also part of the defense team. Their battle formation was a good cover for the women and children who were retreating. Although they were not as strong as the dwarves, their battle formation was enough to stop the monsters from attacking. Moreover, they had faced these monsters many times before, so killing them was a piece of cake!
Two thousand dwarven warriors were divided into batches to support the surrounding villages. Noda and Daugen followed a team of 400 warriors and suddenly plunged into the messy formation of these monsters from the side!
The strength of the dwarves really made people sigh in admiration!
Although they had seen the scene of Daugen using the warhammer to fight, when the magical beasts and those strange magical dogs were smashed into meat patties by the hammer, blood and internal organs scattered everywhere, this terrible deterrent still made Noda feel that it was too terrifying!
Like a forest advancing, invincible!
When a large number of dwarven warriors stood together, it was like a heavy hammer slamming on the battlefield with the force of a thousand catties!
The opponent did not even have the strength to fight back!
The battle ended quickly, but the messy battlefield made the dwarves, who had never suffered such a large number of casualties, extremely sad. Daugen, who was in charge of leading this team, did not rashly attack, but immediately chose to retreat and defend. The dwarves had no effective defensive measures other than the Rockhammer Fort, so they could only retreat step by step towards the Rockhammer Fort. The opponent's offensive was too fierce. Even if they attacked now, although they had the strength to repel them, they could not defend the place they had attacked!
Who could imagine that the dwarven territory, which had been peaceful for nearly a thousand years, would have such a situation?!
Daugen had people report the situation to the chief, while he himself led this team to defend halfway up the mountain of Kargath. The other three teams also retreated with the remaining women and children. There were no accidents during the retreat, because the dwarves understood that they were not facing an army with a commander, but a group of hungry and aggressive strange magical beasts. This also made them take more effective measures quickly.
Noda looked at the yellow mist in the forest at the foot of the mountain. It felt like the whole forest had been polluted. There was yellow mist everywhere, and at the edge of the woodland, from time to time, those numbly wandering magical beasts could be seen … as well as the dead dwarven warriors!
This blasphemy against the dead made many dwarven warriors furious, but due to the orders of their superiors, they had to defend where they were. This also made them use all their strength every time they faced the attacking monsters, and they would not stop until they were smashed into meat paste!
"What do we do?
Are we trapped here? "
Noda sighed. His sister and the girls were taking care of the wounded. Perhaps it was because they had learned to help each other while living in the dwarven territory, at this moment, these slender and tall girls among the dwarves did not panic, but were very calm.
Katherine's change made Noda very happy. His sister had also grown up a lot after experiencing this, and was no longer as shy and helpless in the face of a strange environment. Noda sighed, lamenting that time and environment were really the greatest aids in changing people.
