Bang!
The Hurricane Knight Squad member who was charging at the front was hit by Kieran's spear. He was sent flying like a baseball, crashing into three to four Knight Squad members in the formation.
The three to four Knight Squad members who were sent tumbling also knocked down the ones beside them.
When Kieran returned with another sweep, the Hurricane Knight Squad member who was charging at him from the right was sent flying as well.
Similar to the Knight Squad member who was sent flying earlier.
The Knight Squad member also brought down a bunch of his own men.
In an instant, the front half of the Hurricane Knight Squad was thrown into chaos.
At that moment, Lawless, who was a step behind, had arrived.
Sou Sou Sou Sou!
Lawless changed his sword stance and formed a shield with his sword flashes. The shield instantly bloomed like a peacock spreading its tail, stabbing in all directions.
The noise it produced was no less than the arrows from before.
Compared to the arrows, the sword flashes were much more cunning as they were able to pierce through the gaps in the armor.
Puk Puk! Puk Puk!
Six to seven Hurricane Knight Squad members who were stabbed in the throat fell off their horses one after another.
Within a breath's time, Kieran and Lawless had forced more than a dozen Hurricane Knight Squad members to retreat from the battlefield.
However, there were more than a hundred Hurricane Knight Squad members in pursuit.
It was just a tenth of the total number.
Ninety percent of the Hurricane Knight Squad members were unharmed. After the ambush from Kieran and Lawless, the rest of the Hurricane Knight Squad members reacted to the situation.
They controlled their horses and agilely pulled away from Kieran and Lawless.
The crossbow was loaded with arrows again.
Then came the counterattack.
Sou Sou Sou!
Another volley of arrows rained down on Kieran.
Kieran was forced to return to Lawless's side, relying on his sword skills to block the volley of arrows.
However, it was different from before.
This time, the rain of arrows was endless. It was endless.
"Split fire!"
Kieran narrowed his eyes as he watched the Cyclone Knight Squad firing back and forth.
Kieran would not be surprised if an ordinary infantryman used such a method.
However, the words of the cavalrymen were truly shocking.
It was not that the skill of man and horse as one did not exist, but it was impossible for an entire team to be made up of such riders.
"It's the enemy's gauntlets and shin plates!"
Kieran subconsciously looked at the strange bulges on the Cavalrymen's armor.
Under Kieran's gaze, a faint light flashed across the strange protrusion.
"Is this the secret of the Hurricane Knight Order?"
Kieran thought to himself.
Grand Duke Morko had three main forces under his command. Although the Bestowed had the fewest members, the most secretive one was the Hurricane Knight Group.
Not only was the Grand Duke the leader, but every member of the Knight Group had lived in the Morko Principality for at least three generations.
During the last dungeon, Hanses had been curious about the Hurricane Knight Order's secret.
However, he had gotten nothing out of it.
He had almost been punished for it.
If Hans had not been part of the Stronghold's infantry regiment at that time, he would probably have been whipped by them.
"You can't be too careful with this kind of secret!"
Kieran knew very well what kind of effect two hundred knights could have on a cold weapon battlefield if they could share the same mind as their warhorses.
It would be the key to victory.
To the Grand Duke, this was the best thing that could happen to him.
However, for Lawless and Kieran, it was the worst news they could have gotten.
When Lawless tried to close the distance with the Hurricane Knight Order again and failed, Kieran knew he had to come up with another plan.
Lawless had no problem blocking the arrows, but as time went by, his stamina would decrease, and the situation would lean towards the Hurricane Knight Order.
As for exhausting the enemy's arrows?
Looking at the quiver of arrows on each saddle, Kieran wisely gave up on the idea.
"How much longer can we last?"
Kieran asked.
"At this rate, two minutes!"
Lawless answered.
"Do you see the forest not far from us?"
Let's go there!
When we get into the forest, we'll split up and distract them again. It'll increase our chances of escaping!
Then we'll try our best to complete our Main Mission! "
Kieran said after some thought.
"Okay!"
Lawless did not reject Kieran's suggestion.
According to the contract they had signed before entering the dungeon, their Main Mission had been completed.
Although a group of 20 Hurricane Knight Order members had gone around them to chase after Hanses, they had managed to block their path for a while. Hanses had been able to get some distance ahead of them.
As long as there were no accidents, he would be able to beat the Hurricane Knight Order members into the Forest of Pilgrimage.
Once they entered the forest, their advantage in numbers would be reduced to a minimum.
Just like their current situation.
Hanses had still been caught under such circumstances?
Lawless believed that with Hanses's strength, even if he had been heavily injured, he would not have been caught.
"Hyah!"
Lawless shook the reins and turned his horse around, charging towards the forest.
The Hurricane Knight Order members realized what Kieran and Lawless were up to. Some of them continued to fire arrows.
The other group of people once again bypassed the two of them and arrived in front of the forest at an even faster speed than the two of them.
The members of the Hurricane Knights who arrived at the front of the forest all dismounted their horses and took down their shields from their saddles.
The Knight's Spears were also taken off their mounts.
Within a breath's time, the Knight's Shields had formed a shield wall.
Spears protruded out from the gaps of the knight's shields like a metal hedgehog, emitting a chilling glint under the morning light.
The Hurricane Knight Order members who were chasing after Hanses stopped firing.
Ropes appeared in their hands, and after throwing them at each other, a large rope net appeared behind Kieran and Lawless, cutting off Kieran and Lawless' escape route.
The whole process was completed in a matter of seconds.
Throughout the process, the arrows were still flying through the gaps of the rope net, attacking Kieran and Lawless.
Kieran and Lawless could not do anything about it.
The Hurricane Knight Order had used their actions to tell Kieran and Lawless why they were one of the three strongest forces under the Grand Duke's command.
Kieran and Lawless were caught in a dilemma within a short period of time.
If they moved forward, they would run into the shield wall filled with spears.
If they moved backward, they would fall into the rope net.
However, neither Kieran nor Lawless showed any signs of panic.
In fact, after witnessing the Hurricane Knight Order's outstanding speed when they were chasing after Kieran and Lawless, Kieran and Lawless had expected the situation to turn out this way.
Still, they had chosen to do it.
They were confident that they could break through the blockade.
Whether it was the shield wall in front or the rope net behind them, they were confident that they could break through.
"I …"
"Help me block the arrows from behind!
I'll lead the way! "
Before Lawless could say anything, Kieran had already jumped down from his horse.
He gripped the [Piercing Spear] tightly and aimed it at the shield wall. The [Wild Soul] on his waist shone brightly.
A giant rhino mirage appeared behind Kieran. It was blurry, but it looked even more ferocious. The most primal, wild energy of nature gathered around Kieran.
Kieran did not have the time to experience the wild energy.
The most primitive and wild power had already brought him forward to charge forward.
Roar!
The giant rhino mirage roared at the sky and followed closely behind Kieran.
The next moment, the ground shook violently.
