The Sun King's Evidence

The man's sudden shout stunned the soldiers on the dock.

what's the situation?

The sorceress did not retreat. She chuckled, took out two huge handguns from under her coat, dual-wielded firearms, and said with a smile: "Don't underestimate Congressman Gloria, we are not only able to cast spells."

"Listen to what he does, listen to what this Lord Knight does, and prepare to meet the enemy!!!" Fortunately, there were not only unresponsive soldiers on the dock.

The guard chief Lauritz, who Velarde had previously assigned to Lane to assist in the investigation, was at the scene. After hearing Lane's order, the guard chief immediately signaled the soldiers to obey the order.

"Understood!" There were about forty guards at the port. They were well-trained and quickly formed a formation. The dozen guards carrying bows and arrows were all at the front. They bent their bows and nocked arrows, with their hands hanging down, waiting for the enemy to appear before drawing their bows. When shooting, there are ten spearmen holding shields behind them. They set up their shields with a certain distance between the shields. This is to facilitate the retreat of the archers in front before engaging the enemy.

Then there are the swordsmen. These soldiers wearing breastplates and holding standard swords and shields are the main force in combat.

The guards formed quickly, and a standard army formation was formed immediately. Ryan nodded slightly. There are no soldiers in this world who can't fight in peace for a long time, especially the armies of these local lords. They You must be ready to deal with any threats from the wilds and forests at any time and defend the lord's territory, so no matter how stupid the lord is, you will know how to ensure the combat effectiveness of your soldiers, because this is the capital to survive in this dark world.

The sea surface was rolling, and soon, rickety figures emerged from the water one by one. They were bent at the waist, on all fours, with sharp horns on their heads, half cow and half horse, and rushed towards the port.

It's a water ghost!

This kind of creature appears in streams, rivers and beaches all year round. They are cunning and cruel in nature. Once they encounter the army or a powerful person, they will hide in the water and wait for opportunities. When late at night or when a weak person passes by, these cunning creatures will The creatures will take the opportunity to rush out, mercilessly killing travelers or domestic animals, and eating up their flesh and blood.

There are countless such monsters on the continent, including ghouls, undead, water ghosts, beastmen, greenskins and even various taboo creatures deep in the forest. During the Great Disaster, humans were the food of these monsters. At that time, Human beings are the "reserve food" for monsters, and they are existences like pigs and dogs.

Even though Charlemagne led humanity to rise and established an empire, humanity's wrist strength and physical fitness were far inferior to those of the greenskins and beastmen. Human intelligence and magic affinity were not as good as those of the elves, and their technological level was not as good as those of the elves. Enter the dwarves.

What is it that allowed humans to move from pig-like existence to their current status?

Ryan looked at the tight formation formed by the soldiers and raised the corners of his mouth.

It is strict military discipline, a solid front, undying faith, and sincere unity.

What’s more, it’s the love of life.

"Steel, gunpowder, and faith are the three basic elements that make the empire stand today and not fall."

——Ludwig the Savior

Guard chief Lauritz pulled out his standard long sword and raised the cold blade high: "Soldiers, it's time to fight! Pierce with your spears, block with your shields, slash with your swords, long live Nord!"

"Long live Nord!!!" the soldiers roared.

"I am Kingdom Knight 'Sledgehammer' Ryan. Soldiers, I will fight with you today! Let our swords drink the blood of the enemy together!" Ryan held the hammer in both hands and stood on one side of the entire front: "Get ready. shooting!!!"

The archers strung their bows and arrows. The crossbowman also pulled the trigger.

Dozens of water ghosts have all rushed out of the sea. They crossed the shoal. These things have a horse face, long claws, sharp fangs shining, and strange roars coming from their mouths.

"Let go!" Ryan waved the war hammer, and he took over the command very naturally. Lauritz would not have any objections to this. He is just an officer, not even a noble. Ryan is a senior knight and a noble of his country. , it is very normal to take over the command.

"Shuashuashua~shuashua~~" A row of arrows flew towards the group of water ghosts. The water ghosts in front instantly turned into hedgehogs and fell down screaming, but the water ghosts behind were not afraid at all. , they mercilessly pushed away their arrow-hit partners and even tore them in half. The stench and fishy smell from their bodies had gradually spread through the cold air into Ryan's cold nasal cavity.

After the first round of shooting, the guards immediately prepared for the second round of shooting.

More than a dozen water ghosts have fallen to the ground. The remaining water ghosts seemed not to be affected in any way. They kept howling and roaring. There were surprisingly many of them. In the second round of shooting, more than a dozen of them were shot. The feather arrows took the lives of several more water ghosts, and they did not stop moving forward.

"Melee combat!" Seeing that the water ghosts were coming faster than expected, Ryan immediately judged that the third round of shooting was too late, so he ordered the soldiers to engage in close combat.

Groups of water ghosts rushed up the embankment. Although the guards at the port were nervous, they did not have any fear. The spearmen formed a spear formation, and the sword and shield soldiers lined up in a row. The soldiers' shield formation protected themselves and the In the gap between the shields, there is a spear formation formed by the spearmen in the back row. The sharp spears extend from the battle formation and are aimed at the enemy. Thick mist is sprayed from the soldiers' mouths and noses. Shows their nervousness.

The archers drew their swords and retreated into the military formation first. About forty soldiers formed two rows. In addition, there were several crossbowmen on the sentry post at the port who continued to fire arrows.

"The battle has begun." The knight of the kingdom muttered silently, and a water ghost rushed towards him with its teeth and claws. It had yellow teeth, and the disgusting saliva emitted a disgusting smell. Ryan struck with a hammer in both hands, fiercely It hit the water ghost on the shoulder.

"Crack!" There was a sound of broken bones. The body of the water ghost was directly smashed by Ryan and flew out. After knocking down three water ghosts in a row, he struggled for a few times and then lost his voice.

Ryan didn't bother to look at it. He grabbed the handle of the hammer with his right hand, grabbed the warhammer and lifted it upwards with his ribs. The heavy warhammer hit the other water ghost's chin, and the water ghost's head exploded, red and white. splashed all over the floor.

The powerful strength of the Kingdom Knight was like the bright sun, illuminating the fighting spirit of the dock defenders. In just ten seconds, the five water ghosts turned into flesh under his hammer.

"Oh oh oh! Long live Lord Ryan!" The soldiers saw that Ryan was so powerful, and their morale was high. The tide of water ghosts rushed towards the battle formation. The first wave of water ghosts who rushed up were either pierced by spears or hit against shields. , and then was cut in half by a long sword.

A gray-faced water ghost hit the iron shield. The guard chief Lauritz hit the water ghost hard on the head with his shield, and then pierced the water ghost's chest with a long sword with one hand, and green blood flowed out. It was attached to the fine iron sword, but he had no time to pay attention to it because more water ghosts rushed up.

The sound of shields and hard objects colliding could be heard on the battlefield. There were too many water ghosts. These creatures swarmed up. The guards often didn't have time to pull out the spears and one-handed swords from the bodies of the water ghosts. The next wave of water ghosts would appear. Rushing in front of them, the front line was slowly retreating.

"Ahhhhh!" The first casualty appeared. A young guard on the edge of the line fell to the ground under the impact of a strong water ghost. The sharp claws instantly pierced his shoulder. The guard screamed and held out his hand. His shield was crumbling, so the water ghosts rushed towards him, and he was thrown to the ground. He saw several water ghosts rushing towards him, trying to eat him into pieces.

"Drink!" Suddenly, the water ghost on top of him was smashed away. The man waved the war hammer and spun in a circle. The head of the iron hammer was stained with the green blood of the water ghosts. The young guard looked up. , it’s Lord Ryan! He endured the pain in his shoulder: "Lord Ryan..."

"Get up, there are still enemies to fight!"

"My lord, behind you!" the young guard seemed to have discovered something and exclaimed.

"What?" Ryan suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder, and then he realized that a water ghost had jumped on his shoulder, and its sharp long teeth bit into his shoulder.

"Bang!" Just when Ryan was about to make a move, the sound of a gun sounded from behind, and a blood hole appeared on the head of the water ghost on his shoulder, and then it slipped weakly from Ryan's body.

In the distance, the sorceress was raising her gun elegantly, blowing the hot muzzle with her sweet red lips: "Ryan, watch your back~"

"... Got it." Ryan actually wanted to say that the water ghost's teeth could not bite his skin at all, but in the end he chose to thank him and then turned around to join the battle again.

He's still wearing a tuxedo! This dress is so expensive!

With the appearance of the first casualty, the human battle line had to retreat again and more casualties appeared. There was sweat on Lauritz's forehead. Three guards had already fallen. There were countless groups of water ghosts coming to attack the port. There are more than a hundred and they are still increasing. There are only about forty guards at the port. Even if militiamen are coming one after another, they are only eighty or ninety. And there is still a question mark as to how effective the militia can be.

On the left wing of Ryan's battle line, the Kingdom Knight is stabilizing the battle with almost crushing strength. His single move will take away the life of at least one water ghost. Wherever the golden war hammer touches, he will die and be seriously injured. There was almost no enemy. Even when faced with a siege, Teresa's firearm support was very deadly to the water ghosts. A dozen water ghosts were shot in the head by her one shot.

But the right wing of the battle line was not so relaxed. The soldiers were retreating steadily, and the strong bodies of the water ghosts were constantly impacting the front line. Even if there were shields to resist, the physical fitness of these ordinary-level soldiers was not enough to protect the hands holding the shields. It can withstand continuous impacts. Once the arm is injured or numb, the front line will be in danger!

Ryan's reaction was extremely fast. With a flick of his left hand, the electric light on the war hammer flashed, and the fine iron hammer head hit the ground directly. Several arcs of electricity were ejected from it. All the dozen or so water ghosts nearby were scorched black by the electricity, except for the particularly strong one. The water ghost rushed over with a howl, but was hit in the middle of the chest. The whole body was torn apart by the force of thunder and lightning, flying high into the air and disintegrating freely.

Another militia group of about fifty people arrived from the direction of the street leading from the dock to the town. These militiamen wore old or even rusty breastplates, and carried simple spears, short swords, and scimitars. Their eyes were full of With fear and determination, their morale is low and their equipment is not good, but they have to fight to defend their homeland!

The front line was stabilized again. The militiamen raised their spears to form a spear formation. The dense forest of spears rushed in and pierced the water ghosts. The green water ghosts splashed with blood. There was no organization and coordination. The water ghosts were fighting independently. The human array advanced and retreated steadily, and the battle line began to shift towards the coastline.

"Victory is at hand!" Lauritz swung his sword again and cut a water ghost into two pieces. In today's battle, both soldiers and militiamen showed strong combat effectiveness. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel grateful. Looking at Ryan who is fighting on the front line personally, it is precisely because of the strong combat effectiveness shown by the kingdom's knights that this army can persist for so long and its morale continues to be high.

This is the battle in the age of cold weapons, especially in this world of swords and magic, where the general's command and force are the soul of an army!

"Dong~dong~dong~" A bell rang in the direction of the port leading to the town.

It's the bell that rallies the troops, and Velarde is gathering the troops! Hearing the bell, even Ryan couldn't help but smile. After being unable to attack for a long time, the morale of the water ghosts gradually dropped. These beasts were also afraid of Ryan's powerful combat power. After several waves of charges, they saw the defenders of the dock. Unable to take them down, the small water ghosts have begun to retreat slowly. These cunning guys will not come up to die in waves.

"What a cunning creature!" After continuously hitting the heads of nearby water ghosts, Teresa put down the gun. The gun used mercury bullets specially made by the Gloria Council. It was expensive to make. Seeing that the situation was under control, the woman Warlock feels the need to conserve ammunition.

At this time, another group of people came to the intersection of the dock. They were members of the Blood Ax Mercenary Group! The mercenary leader Boris took the lead, raised his battle ax and rushed into the battlefield. As soon as they met, his ax was stained with green blood.

The deputy captain Wilt led the mercenaries with a two-handed sword and then rushed in. With the participation of the mercenaries, the water ghosts completely collapsed. The remaining water ghosts howled and fled into the sea. The young mercenary Banda came from behind. He came closer and said, "Ms. Trovik, are you okay?"

"It's okay." The sorceress nodded, her eyes continuing to look at Ryan who was fighting in front.

The figure of the Kingdom Knight is like the god of war coming to the world. He has killed countless water ghosts with his hands. He stands at the front with hammers in both hands, so powerful that people cannot look directly at them.

Banda reacted immediately. The mercenary thought that I could do it too, so he specially found a place with few people. It has to be said that his skills were quite good under the guidance of Wilt. With a steady pace, Banda Banda charged forward, gripping the hilt of the sword with both hands back and forth, raising the sword horizontally to the center of his eyebrows, and the tip of the sword circled in the air. After accumulating strength, Banda successfully chopped off a water Ghost's head.

Before he could be happy, a sudden change occurred.

"Oh ho ho!!!" A huge roar sounded, and a water ghost that was at least two heads taller than the strongest water ghost appeared. The muscles on its body were intertwined, and it had red eyes and an even bigger body. Fangs, and holding a one-meter-long mace in his hand, he smashed a lone guard into a pulp as soon as he took action, and the huge roar made the water ghosts who had already begun to collapse start to collapse again. Gather around.

"It's the Water Ghost King! The Water Ghost King has appeared!"
