Chapter 459 The Black Knights Are Coming

Demonic Land, Southwest, Gravel Mountains.

The beast tide came again.

The major forces quickly gathered together. They had already prepared for a tough battle and had no other choice but to resist to the death.

Behind him was the Lair of Eternal Summer, the defense line of the residents of the Gravel Mountains.

The giant blacksmith in the village carried a big knife and exerted force with his fingers gripping the handle. As the war continued, more and more of their people died, but the number of giant beasts on the other side of the Gravel Mountains also increased. As one grew stronger, the other weakened. Not only the blacksmith, but even the maid in the tavern had to carry spears to the battlefield.

There was fear and burning fighting spirit in their eyes, and the blood in their bodies had begun to boil.

A total of 1 people gathered here, all of whom were above the st ring in strength. Such a team might be able to easily overthrow any local force in other material planes, but here they were like flesh and blood bricks, and could only use their own lives to resist the impact, and pray that their death could slightly slow down the pace of the invasion.

"This is our most crucial battle!"

The person who spoke was like a lion with frizzy hair, wearing animal skin armor, revealing a palm of fur on his heart, and his voice was as loud as a bell: "Behind us is the Nest of Eternal Summer, our home. If the giant beast breaks through this time... we have no way to retreat!"

He is the lord of the Eternal Summer's Nest, known as Gold Claw Quick. It is said that he gained great power by sacrificing his heart in a certain Beast Feast Church. Now he has reached the fifth ring of strength and is the undisputed strongest man.

The stories about him can be told from a long, long time ago. A successful person can be considered part of the legend even if he just fell down in his childhood and then got up again. There is never a shortage of flatterers in the world.

"We have to deal with not only large beasts, but also poisonous birds that are good at spraying poison. They are very fast. Although they are not very strong, their bodies can spray out highly toxic toxins. If they accidentally touch blood, they will be corroded. There are also colossi..." Speaking of colossi, Gold Claw Quick tried hard to adjust his inner emotions.

Those things had just appeared and were in a completely different ecological system from the behemoths. There was no cooperative relationship between the two sides, but it was possible that the behemoths discovered that the colossi were dangerous and there was no benefit in fighting them, so they lived in peace with each other.

At this time, the behemoths and colossi rushed towards the Gravel Mountains together, and the danger was rising sharply.

"The Colossus is a product of some kind of magic. It is huge and has no weaknesses. We once had a team of eight people come into contact with it, but it was difficult to break through its magical shell."

Although he knew that he shouldn't say discouraging words at a critical moment, Jinzhua Kuai Ke still couldn't control his emotions at the moment, and his words inevitably carried a hint of tragedy.

As for that team, in the end only one person returned seriously injured, and he died not long after.

The magical colossus that cannot be easily defeated, the rampant tide of giant beasts, they are just a piece of meat that is destined to be swallowed in one bite.

"Everyone get ready! Defend our home!" Gold Claw Quick raised his fist.

The audience roared along.

"Defend our home!"

"Defend our home!"

Goldclaw Quick turned and left, there was other work to do after the mobilization, and they needed reinforcements.

"Have you contacted Scar?" Gold Claw Quick looked at the woman holding the beast claw hammer.

She is a big, heavy-set woman, and has nothing to do with beauty.

He wears a suit of colorful armor, and the scarf around his neck that looks like a blooming flower is made from the tail feathers of a giant beast that can only spit out rainbow mist. It can leave colorful light and shadows when he moves, making the enemy dazed.

The woman's strength is only 2nd ring, but her brother is Scar. When mentioning Scar, we have to mention the helper who was once called in, the mysterious and powerful...

Later, Scar successfully joined the team of that strong man. Gold Claw Quick wanted to keep his good impression of Scar, so he kept Scar's sister by his side. They needed to gather all their strength.

"I've already contacted him. He said he would be here today." The woman nodded, but stopped talking.

"What do you want to ask?" Gold Claw Quick noticed her expression.

"That black knight... can he really fight against the beast tide?" the woman asked anxiously, "Even if he once forced the Mountain King to retreat..."

Her brother was loyal to the Black Knight and had great respect for him, but she still didn't believe that anyone could be so powerful and able to turn the tide.

"You don't understand." Goldclaw Quick shook his head.

He could get more information: "For the Black Knight, the beast tide is not a problem at all. He is powerful beyond imagination...but they are very busy and will not stay in one place for a long time."

Scar followed him, so occasionally some news would come, such as the Black Knight was wandering around a place with treasure, or there was news of a conflict with the lord of a certain place.

Goldclaw Quick would also get news from other places.

Robbing, invading, and occasionally taking on some mercenary missions, although the Black Knight Legion is small in number, it has become the most famous force in the Demon Land from the west to the southwest.

It is said that a beast king once wanted to attack the Black Knight, but later the plan was abandoned. No one knows what happened, but since then the opponent has become famous and has become a powerful force that cannot be ignored in this land.

If there is a Beast King willing to fight for the Gravel Mountains, the giant beast tide will not be a problem at all. Similarly, the Black Knight who can be compared with the Beast King is also qualified to be looked up to by people.

"Really?" The woman was skeptical. Of course she believed in the powerful Gold Claw Quick, but when she thought of her brother, she really didn't think there was anything special about the legion that allowed Scar to join. The requirements were too low, even Scar wanted them.

"Sir! Hong Yuan's reinforcements are here!" Someone approached quickly with an excited look on his face, as if he was relieved.

The Red Kite Demon Artillery Regiment has a group of orcs with the title of "Iron Heart". It is said that the leader is a believer of the Hornbill School of the Mechanicus. They can definitely hold on longer if they can invite such a strong team to help.

"Sir, the Blue Shark mercenaries are here too!"

"I hope we can hold on this time." Gold Claw Quick had a worried look on his face. The enemy this time was more terrifying than any previous one. Victory would not be achieved just by having enough numbers.

But time waits for no one.

"Stay close to the defense line and counterattack at any time!" He couldn't give the order to attack. With the defense in place, they could hold out for a little longer, but if they took the initiative to attack, they would be like a turtle that had automatically shed its shell and would only die faster.

Like needles from the sun, beams of light burst out from the other side of the Gravel Mountains, sweeping across a great distance towards the army in the Gravel Mountains.

Each beam of light is as thick as three to five people.

The light beam hit the ground and liquid splashed out. The burning stream devoured everything it touched, easily piercing through the high defensive wall built by the resistance army, and hitting the ground at an angle, leaving a deep pit.

The deafening roar and screams from behind the defense line marked the official start of the war.

The defense line collapsed, and dust rolled in the flying flames. The display at the front became like being in purgatory the moment it was touched by the flames, melting in an instant, and even if they did not die, they would be buried by the collapsed defense line boulders.

When the defense line collapsed in an instant, they finally saw what they were facing... A magical colossus that was much smaller than the behemoth, about 5 people tall, wrapped in magic, with a single eye with magic patterns on its head that would fluctuate when gathering energy, gathering the energy in the air, shrinking the blue ring, and when it gathered to a certain degree, it would condense into red before being converted into a beam of light and released.

There were streaks of hot red in the sky.

The suffocating heat was still rolling around me, and the sand that swept across my face was as burning as charcoal ashes.

The leader of the Red Kite Magic Artillery Regiment was clearly aware that in the previous moment, he had lost dozens of elite members and five magic cannons!
The attack of the giant beast tide had just begun, but they were already showing signs of being defeated. The collapse of the surrounding defense lines continued, and death and screams continued.

A corpse was blown away and rolled in front of the commander of the Red Kite Demon Artillery Regiment. Its right leg had disappeared and its body had obviously been blown away by the previous bombardment.

"Damn it! Red Kite Magic Artillery Regiment, fire!" The commander of the Magic Artillery Regiment shouted loudly. In such a noisy environment, he was not sure whether his roar could reach everyone's ears, but they had to fight back.

The counterattack has begun!
Gold Claw Quick crossed the battle line carrying a knife. A ravine became a temporary shelter for the seriously wounded, and it was crowded with warriors with missing limbs. Their armor had been completely covered in blood, and it was impossible to tell which force they came from, or even what race some of the charred figures were.

Now, it doesn’t matter which force they are on. Everyone’s head is tied to this battle. Hold on or die.

"What's going on?" asked Goldclaw Quick.

The subordinate reported: "The Red Kite Demon Artillery Regiment is still safe. They successfully defeated a colossus. The melee troops have also engaged and launched a charge, but they can only withstand this wave of attacks at best."

Golden Claw Quick looked into the distance and saw crowds of people.

The warriors seemed very vulnerable in the impact of the beast tide.

"There are too many of them." The subordinates were helpless. "Although we have the Red Kite Magic Artillery and Blue Sharks, the range and power of their Colossi can reach the gate of the Eternal Summer's Nest!"

Gold Claw Quick nodded helplessly. If there were only behemoths but no colossi, perhaps they could hold on a little longer and maybe even be able to barely repel the beast tide.

The Red Kite Magic Artillery Regiment is his trump card. It is not easy to invite this group of guys, but now, the Magic Artillery Regiment is still not enough... Gold Claw Quick looked at the large number of corpses in front of him, looking at the beasts that were at least three to five times the size of the warriors, and anger rose in his heart.

"Hold on!" He said. This was all he could say. "We must not give up! Although the Colossi are very powerful, their attack frequency is not high, and they mainly focus on destroying the defense line. This is definitely to clear the way for the giant beasts. As long as we resist, they will soon become tired and retreat."

By now, Gold Claw Quick has realized that this beast tide attack is not the unconscious attack of the giant beasts in the past, nor is it for the most basic reasons such as hunting, but someone is guiding it behind the scenes.

The person behind the scenes is trying to completely capture the enemy, causing their own side to collapse and catching everyone in one fell swoop... The other side not only wants to win, but also wants an absolute victory of annihilation!

The death storm created by the soul-shaking bombing swept through every corner, and the bloodthirsty beasts dragged the soldiers into the battlefield that was destined to be reduced to ashes along with their deaths.

Purgatory is gradually devouring the land beneath our feet.

You can retire now.

"Kill!" Gold Claw Quick could no longer stand back. He wanted to let the enemy know that he was definitely capable of more than just this.

The soldiers looked at him, their bloodshot eyes ignited with anger.

"If you want to win, if you want to trample us, then step on my dead body! Come on!"

Thousands of giant beasts were rushing towards them with billowing black smoke that covered the sky. Gold Claw Kuake was looking at the unrivaled storm in front of him with a big knife in his hand. The unyielding fighting spirit burning in his heart made him smile involuntarily.

He will fight to the last moment. Since he cannot win, he will face death with glory.

The air was torn apart again and again by the artillery and light beams of both sides, making breathing difficult. Even if some fragments of air occasionally fell into the mouth and nose, they would burn the trachea and sting the nerves.

"Boom--" The explosion landed at Gold Claw Quick's feet. Although he reacted in time, he was still knocked to the ground.

Stone chips and flames flew everywhere, turning into a rain of fire spreading from the ground. Fortunately, the explosion did not affect a large area, and only a few soldiers were killed.

Goldclaw Quick got up, his ears were buzzing, his head was dizzy, and he could barely feel the burning air through his twitching nose.

He held on, and jumped up with a knife in his hand when a blue-haired flying dragon with horns and wings pounced in front of him. The blue-haired flying dragon was not big in size. It was more like a flying squirrel than a dragon, with a wide flesh membrane growing between its front and hind limbs.

After the thin body unfolded, it was like a roof completely covering the top of his head. Golden Claw Quick leaped over and cut open the "roof", then rolled to the ground.

The blue-haired flying dragon smashed to the ground, further shattering the already broken defense line at the rear. After falling to the ground, it twitched a few times and then became completely motionless.

Gold Claw Quick leaned on his knife and shook his head to drive away the buzzing in his ears.

Ahead, there are not only giant beasts, but also unrivaled colossi.

Focusing his vision, he could see the Blue Shark Legion, known as the blue sharks in the desert, being torn apart after colliding with the Colossus. They fought hard to kill the enemy, but it was difficult for swords and sabers to break through the Colossus's magical defense. Only the leader of the Blue Shark Legion fought hard with his powerful strength.

The battlefield became increasingly blurry in Gold Claw Quick's eyes, and he forced himself to cheer up.

Suddenly a voice was heard, which was completely different from the sound on the battlefield ahead.

"I thought it would be useful to have a few more teleportation magic coordinates. Otherwise, how long will it take to walk?"

Gold Claw Quick immediately looked up at the source of the sound.

A figure wearing a ghost cloak fell from the sky, smashing down like a meteorite, hitting the colossus's head. The azure soul blade in his hand easily pierced the colossus's head.

The Colossus was reduced to rubble.

He easily destroyed a colossus as soon as he appeared.

Although the armor on his body has become more complicated and sophisticated, no one can mistake the cloak with ghosts constantly emerging from it.

Black Knight!
Goldclaw Quick breathed a sigh of relief.

The cloak behind the black knight fluttered, and hundreds of golden ghosts rushed out from it, ignoring any physical attacks from the giant beasts, and swarmed forward like a sea of ​​ants, devouring the giant beasts one by one.

Reinforcements from the Black Knights have arrived, and the counterattack can finally begin.
