They were getting closer and closer.
Jasmine under the Moon was at the front of the players' formation. Her heart was beating faster and faster as she watched the orc army get closer and closer.
She was not nervous, but excited.
As a Silver-ranked Warrior, Jasmine Undermoon was naturally chosen as the frontline heavy armored Knight.
In this battle, she would be the vanguard of the heavy cavalry, leading a small group of heavy cavalry behind her. Together with Demacia and others who were also the vanguard of the heavy cavalry, they would launch a frontal assault on the Orc formation.
That's right, the first round of frontal assault.
In this regard, they were different from the heavy cavalry of the Cerulean Planet in ancient times.
Bluestar's heavy cavalry was too cumbersome. Because of their heavy armor and high speed, they could not wield their weapons. Therefore, their combat power was limited. Their main advantage was their charging ability. Before charging, they even had to run for a long time to increase their speed.
And this kind of attribute determined that the Blue Planet's heavy cavalry charge was often the most effective in the first round. They had to ensure that they could cause an effective impact on the enemy before they could attack. Otherwise, they would be trapped in a quagmire.
Therefore … Bluestar's heavy cavalry rarely charged directly at the beginning of the battle. This was because it was difficult to be targeted by the enemy's spearmen formation. Once they encountered a human wall formed by spearmen, they would die.
In Bluestar, generally speaking, only when the enemy's formation was in chaos or when there was a gap in the defense, the heavy cavalry would charge and completely destroy the enemy in one wave. This way, the infantry behind would have the opportunity to harvest.
However, the World of Segers was a magical world. Elves were also magical creatures.
Through the buff magic, even if the heavy cavalry players were wearing heavy armor, they could be far more flexible and mobile than their counterparts in Bluestar.
In contrast, the orcs, who lacked spellcasters, did not have any countermeasures.
Therefore, the players could turn the heavy cavalry into humanoid "tanks" that could charge in the frontlines.
Jasmine under the Moon looked at the system time and took a few deep breaths.
She had been looking forward to this battle for a long time.
In the past few days of fighting, the half-beastmen she encountered were too weak, which made her very unhappy.
Only the old orc priest she met a few days ago could let her enjoy herself to her heart's content.
If the quality wasn't good enough, the quantity would make up for it.
As the vanguard of the player army, she could finally fight a painful battle against the orcs.
Adjusting her ill-fitting silver helmet, Jasmine Undermoon tightened her grip on her three-meter-long lance.
The Knights' spears were made by the players themselves using the wood from the Elven Forest. The spearheads were either made by the Dark Dwarves or modified from equipment that they had seized. In addition, the body of the spear was temporarily enchanted by the Mages to increase its strength.
As for the armor she was wearing, it was one of the most cost-effective items in the shop. It was a rare Black Iron-high Blue Warrior equipment that was famous for its resistance to beatings. According to the system's introduction, it was based on the equipment of the Ancient Elves. Its appearance was very similar to the antiques that players had unearthed in Rivendell and Fei Lengcui.
This set of equipment was all temporary. It was the kind that wouldn't hurt if it was worn out.
This set of equipment wasn't only because the bound equipment couldn't be retrieved after death in the Death Desert, but also because of the experience of Bluestar. The players knew that this set of equipment was the only way to unleash the full potential of the Steel Cavalry.
In addition, Jasmine Undermoon's mount was no longer the Blue Dragon that she had obtained.
She had left the Blue Dragon in the camp because this kind of battlefield was too dangerous for it. Normally, it would be fine for it to fight and plunder, but in this kind of battle, the Beastmen and Behemoths would focus fire on it and kill it easily.
In Elven Nation, Magic Pets and Megalosaurus companions couldn't be revived after death.
Like the other Heavy Cavalry players, Jasmine Undermoon's mount was a Black Iron-ranked Crypt Spider that was the size of a human.
It was also one of the most cost-effective mounts available.
The ten thousand Heavy Cavalry players all had the same mount.
This was the model that the players had come up with after experiencing the Underground War's cavalry charge.
Jasmine Undermoon lightly exhaled and calmed herself down. She then turned to the other players behind her and said:
"When the official charge starts, follow me closely. Don't fall behind."
During the charging phase, it was not a phase where one person could act cool. Teamwork was the key.
Even Jasmine Undermoon, who had always enjoyed one-on-one battles, understood the importance of cooperation.
Of course, she would be free to do as she pleased once the melee began.
"Don't worry! Boss Jasmine! Heavy Cavalry players are terrifying because of their large scale charge. Discipline is especially important. We understand! "
The other players in the party laughed.
Jasmine Undermoon lightly nodded her head and withdrew her gaze.
Not long after Jasmine Undermoon withdrew her gaze, the highest command in the battlefield channel was issued:
[Heavy Cavalry, get ready! Mages, cast Acceleration Spells and Wind Elemental Shield. On the count of three, charge!]
Upon hearing the command, Jasmine Undermoon's expression turned solemn as she positioned her spear.
After that, the Mages in the formation began to chant spells and cast buffs on the Heavy Cavalry players.
As the buffs landed on her body, Jasmine Undermoon felt her strength increase.
The background music in the battlefield channel became muffled as if it was preparing for the next climax.
Following that, the commanding officer's roar resounded in the ears of the players:
"Heavy Cavalry, attention …"
"One … Two … Three —"
"Charge —!"
As if it was chosen at the right moment, the background music paused for a moment before it changed.
Jasmine Undermoon's heart skipped a beat as she listened to the background music.
Together with the other Heavy Cavalry players, she angrily shouted:
"Charge!"
Following that, they began to run.
Jasmine Undermoon raised her spear and charged at the front with the other Silver Warriors.
The 10,000 Heavy Cavalry players began to move!
The 10,000 Heavy Cavalry players charged as the Crypt Spiders dug their metal legs into the sand, producing a thunderous sound.
Even though Jasmine Undermoon was in the vanguard position and could not see the spectacular scene behind her, she could still imagine what kind of scene it would be.
The scenery on both sides was rapidly moving backwards, faster and faster.
Speed determined the Heavy Cavalry players' charging ability.
With the buffs from Acceleration Spells and the run-up, Jasmine Undermoon could clearly feel that her speed was becoming more and more frightening …
At the same time, the background music gradually increased in speed, forming a kind of coordination with the players' charge.
The scene of them retreating quickly, the sound of the wind whistling in their faces, and the Charge brought about by it made every Heavy Cavalry player's blood boil.
Jasmine Undermoon included.
A loud bugle horn sounded from afar, and the Orc army finally entered her sight.
She could already see the shiny armor of the Orc Warriors in the front row. She could also see their frightened expressions and the standard longswords of the Sauron Merchant Group in their hands.
They stopped their advance and began to shrink their formation, preparing to defend against the Orc attack.
It was the right move.
Unfortunately, she did not have a spear …
"We won."
Such a thought appeared in Jasmine's mind.
Another loud bugle horn sounded, and countless arrows flew out from the Orc army.
These arrows formed a dense rain of arrows and shot towards the Heavy Cavalry players.
However, Jasmine Undermoon did not care.
The arrows did not hit Jasmine Undermoon's body, but instead hit the translucent Wind Elemental Shield in the air, disrupting their trajectory and causing them to lose their momentum.
In the end, the arrows could only slide to the sides.
Jasmine Undermoon, on the other hand, was almost unscathed.
However, after blocking the first round of arrows, the Wind Elemental Shield became dim, and a lot of its power was consumed.
At most, it would be destroyed after two or three more rounds of arrows.
But it was enough.
Jasmine Undermoon and the other players had already reached the front of the Orc army.
She clenched the spear in her hand and released the [Pierce] skill with a roar. Then, like a sharp knife, she pierced into the Orc army!
In an instant, Jasmine Undermoon felt a huge resistance, accompanied by sounds of impact, screams, and the sound of bones breaking could be heard from all around her.
Shortly after, the resistance was torn apart as though it was made of paper.
The Orcs were knocked to the ground, and Jasmine Undermoon led the players behind her to charge into the crowd like a tank.
