Ten minutes after the first ten Griffin Knights departed, another group of ten Griffin Knights departed as well.
The first ten Griffin Knights flew as fast as they could. They knew that Prince Horace was attacked and the teleportation circle was destroyed.
Griffin Knight 03 was the leader of this group of Griffin Knights. He knew that it was too late to rescue Prince Horace now. The fact that the teleportation circle was destroyed meant that the orcs had already taken control of the castle. Only Dunmore and Head Knight Captain Dunmore were present. There was no way they could protect Prince Horace.
Still, he didn't slow down. He was ordered to go to the castle as soon as possible to rescue Prince Horace. Even if there was no one there, he had to bring his team there.
While 03 was thinking, he felt an evil presence. Then, a cloud of curse appeared above the heads of the Griffin Knights. Cursed rain fell, and the light of curse appeared above 03's head.
"It's the 'Fear' curse! Control the griffins! An orc priest is coming!" Griffin Knight 03 yelled.
Combat qi flashed around 03's body, and in a flash, a combat qi armor covered him and his Griffin. At the same time, he took out the bow on the Griffin and nocked an arrow on the bowstring.
The four Head Knight commanders reacted at the same time, but the other six Griffin Knight commanders didn't have time to react. The curse of fear scared the unprotected Griffin Knights.
The curse of fear was hard to avoid, but as a powerful force of the Kingdom of Saint Ellis, the Griffin Knights and their Griffins were trained to resist curses of the soul. If they could divide the power of the curse between the Griffin Knights and their Griffins, they would be able to resist the curse of the soul.
In order to resist the curse of the soul, they had to go through a lot of training. It was almost like they were walking the line between life and death.
The six Griffins that were affected by the curse of fear began to fly in all directions, messing up the formation in the sky.
"Steady, steady!" Griffin Knight 03 yelled.
But no matter how much he yelled, he couldn't make the Griffins return to normal in a short period of time. He could tell from the range of the curse that it wasn't a single orc priest casting the curse. It was most likely multiple orc priests casting the curse at the same time.
Since the 'fear' curse didn't have a large area of effect, the 'fear' curse of one or two orc priests couldn't affect ten Griffin Knights at the same time.
Therefore, Gryphon Knight 03 gave up after shouting twice. Instead, he and the other three Gryphon Knight Captains stared at the sky.
Four sky sparrows appeared in the sky. Beside the sky sparrows were ten pace eagles carrying ten intermediate orc priests.
Gryphon Knight 03 was startled to see such a large amount of orcs in the sky. He quickly shot an arrow.
He didn't attack the sky sparrows. Although sky sparrows were very timid, their huge bodies made it impossible for small arrows like these to do much damage to them.
The arrow flew towards an intermediate orc priest. That orc priest didn't even look at the arrow. Instead, he drew a spell pattern with the bone staff in his right hand. Then, a bone spear shot out and pierced through the body of a Griffin Knight who was about to recover from the 'fear' curse.
At the same time, the other nine intermediate orc priests also attacked the Griffin Knights. The four Griffin Knight Captains could only dodge in the sky. They couldn't take advantage of the advantage of the Griffins at all.
The difference in combat strength was too great. Pace Eagles were the fastest among the winged cavalry. Ten Pace Eagles were almost half of the Orc Empire's Pace Eagles gathered in one place.
Gryphon Knight 03 watched the six Griffin Knight Captains fall from their Griffins. He couldn't help but feel angry. However, his long-range attacks were useless against the intermediate orc priests.
The intermediate orc priests were very powerful. They used the speed of their pace eagles to close in on the Griffin Great Knight Captains.
Gryphon Knight 03 saw a curse cloud flash above his companion's head. Then, curse rain fell, and curse light appeared above the Griffin Great Knight Captains.
Then, the Griffin Great Knight Captains suddenly turned around and pecked at the Griffin Great Knight Captains. The Griffin Great Knight Captains was a little flustered for a moment.
At this moment, three bone spears flew towards the Griffin Great Knight Captains. Since the Griffin Great Knight Captains couldn't control their Griffins, they were hit by the bone spears at the same time.
The griffin head commander wobbled a little, and its body tilted to one side. Afterward, it fell off the griffin.
"Back off! Send the alarm signal!" Gryphon Knight 03 watched his companion get killed. He couldn't help but feel anxious. It didn't matter if all of his Griffin Knights died, but more Griffin Great Knight Captains would pass by here.
If they all died here without even sending out a signal, then the following Gryphon Knight Squads would all die here in batches.
If that happened, the Griffin Knight Captains that were the backbone of the Kingdom of Saint Ellis would be wiped out.
The bone spears flew towards a Griffin Great Knight Captains who was taking out a signal flare. Griffin Knight 03 commanded his Griffins to block the bone spears. Griffin Knights couldn't wear metal armor, and they didn't have shields either.
Griffin Knight 03 didn't have a shield, so he had to use his body to block the bone spears. Griffin Great Knight 03 condensed his combat qi into a giant flaming sword and slashed towards the bone spears.
The bone spears weren't affected too much by the flaming combat qi. They just slowed down a bit, and that gave Griffin Great Knight 03 the time to choose which part of his body to be injured.
A few 'bone spears' pierced through his combat qi armor and pierced through his shoulders. The death qi instantly sucked out more than half of his life force. At the same time, he retracted his flame combat qi and rushed into those pierced wounds.
The flames on his flaming combat qi burned the wounds like crazy, and at the same time, it forced the death qi out of his body.
This was a self-harming method. Normally, a Great Knight Captains wouldn't be able to do this, but Griffin Knight 03 was a man of sacrifice. He was cruel to his enemies, and he was also cruel to himself.
At this moment, a fireball flew into the sky and exploded. A strange flame symbol appeared in the sky.
There were many kinds of warning signals on a Griffin Knight, and each of them had a special meaning. This one meant that the enemy's power was far greater than theirs, and they couldn't fight back.
It wasn't a signal for help. It was a warning signal. When this signal appeared in the sky, it meant that the enemy was extremely powerful, and it was beyond the team's ability to deal with.
"Damn it!" An intermediate priest cursed. This signal was going to reduce their harvest by a lot.
If it weren't for the fact that the speed eagles and the intermediate priest didn't have enough time to work together, and they weren't good at aerial combat, they wouldn't have let the Griffin Knight send out the signal.
"Kill them!" The intermediate priest yelled.
The ten speed eagles flew at full speed. Curses and bone spears were flying in the sky, and the Griffin Great Knight captain was shooting arrows at them.
When the four balls of combat aura appeared on the ground, Gryphon Knight 03 and his squad of Gryphon Knights, a total of ten Gryphon Knights, were annihilated.
Only the combat qi smokes and the ten Griffins flying in the sky showed that a battle had taken place here.
"Capture them!" A spell rune flashed on the bone staff in the intermediate priest's right hand. Next, a dark spirit vision curse was cast on the head of a Griffin. Without the command of the Griffin Knight, the Griffin lost its sense of direction.
The four Sky Sparrows that had been flying around the periphery of the battlefield were driven into the battlefield. The Sky Sparrows had been frightened by the spells flying around, but this time, the four Sky Sparrows were the most stable Sky Sparrows.
By this time, the four sky sparrows had returned to normal. Under the command of the Bear Man on their backs, they approached the Griffins that were no longer a threat.
The Bear Man caught the Griffins that were panicking after being cursed with a giant net and dragged them onto the sky sparrows. Then, he used a potion to knock them out.
