Lord of the Oasis - Chapter 587

Chapter 587: Common sense that gradually faded
Viscount Carl Cameron was extremely anxious, but there was nothing he could do. He could only watch as the 500 black-armored knights were surrounded by 2,000 enemy grand knight-level troops, at the same time, the most valuable 5,000 official knight-level heavy cavalries were approaching the moment of destruction over time.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, the Lion Fort’s castle gate opened, and five black-armored knights rushed out.

The sound of five warhorses trampling on the ground was much louder than the sound of hundreds of heavy cavalries charging together.

These five black-armored knights were different from ordinary black-armored knights. Their warhorses were taller, their equipment was better, and their aura was more magnificent. On each side of the pitch-black heavy armor, on each shoulder, elbow joint, and knee guard, there were three ferocious black steel thorns that were more than ten centimeters long. The fully-covered helmet that only revealed a pair of eyes, on the left and right sides of the head and the area of the forehead, each had a sharp steel thorn that was more than ten centimeters long.

Even the body of the warhorse was wrapped in a fully covered, thick, pitch-black vest. There were also extremely terrifying sharp steel thorns on it. These steel thorns were obviously not used for ornamental purposes. On the right side of the five warhorses, there was a pitch-black two-handed greatsword. The style was no different from an ordinary knight’s sword. However, it was more than a meter longer than an ordinary Knight’s sword. At the same time, it was much thicker and heavier.

These five black-armored knights were the five world barons of the Dukedom of Leo. After they put on their equipment, their overall aura had increased by a large margin. The auras of the five knights were linked together, they could faintly contend against the combined forces of Kant’s 1,000 Swadian knights and 1,000 Sarleon lion knights.

Their current aura was much stronger than the first time they met in the City of Lion’s Heart. It was obvious that when the 51 world barons gathered, they did not display their strongest auras.

But now, they were about to engage in a life-and-death battle with Baron Kant, and the aura they released was undoubtedly their peak aura. Now was not the time to hold back. Through the increased interactions with Baron Kant, they also understood more about Baron Kant’s strength. They absolutely could not judge based on the fact that he had become a world noble at the last and had not yet owned a demiplane estate.

As for Baron Kant, they had already found that a lot of common sense did not work on him.

At this time, they had already placed Kant on the same level as them and even regarded him as a threat comparable to the month of calamity. They took him very seriously.

Baron Ryan. Isai. Cameron was wearing a full-body helmet. No one saw him frown in the armor. He glanced at Viscount Carl Cameron with some dissatisfaction, then, he took back the control of the army from Viscount Carl Cameron.

He ordered the 5,000 heavy cavalries on the battlefield in a cold and harsh voice, “The first, second, third, fourth, and fifth heavy cavalry corps of Lion Fort, charge at Baron Kant’s soldiers at all costs! Black-armored knights, listen up! Concentrate on your forces and charge in the same direction!”

Baron Ryan. Isai. Cameron’s voice came out from the helmet. It sounded a little dull, but his words were obviously more convincing than Viscount Carl Cameron’s words. Therefore, even if his order was given, not only would the 5,000 heavy cavalries suffer heavy losses — which was what they wanted; even the 500 black-armored knights would quickly suffer heavy casualties, the soldiers still carried out his order without hesitation.

“Kill, for the Dukedom of Leo! For the Grand Duke Cameron!”

“Kill, brothers, let’s kill our way out and break through the encirclement!”

Baron Ryan. Isai. Cameron was like a beacon for these soldiers. After he spoke, the morale of the two different types of heavy cavalry increased rapidly, charging towards Kant’s team without fear of death. It was completely different from when they were led by Viscount Carl Cameron.

At the same time, the five world barons also charged toward Baron Kant. They held two-meter-long two-handed greatswords in their hands, ignoring the Swadian royal knights and the Sarleon lion knights, they charged at Kant with incomparable speed.

“Baron Kant, die!” Baron Nathaniel. Isai. Reese was the most impatient among the five of them. At this moment, he roared at Kant from a distance of one to two hundred meters away. The two-handed greatsword in his hand suddenly emitted a fiery red glow. With a sweep of his sword, he cut more than a dozen heavy cavalries who belonged to the Lion Fort, that were standing in front of him, into two halves. Not only that, but the bodies of these soldiers were also burning fiercely, the first thing that was ablaze was their sophisticated knight armor.

“This… the knight armor on these guys is actually made of wood and dyed with colors. Who… who are they fooling?” Even though Kant was being targeted by five world barons at the same time, he still could not help but feel a little emotional about this matter, this was too absurd. “However, for this army, this kind of configuration is only reasonable, right? If it wasn’t for the fact that the trojans can’t walk, I reckon that the mounts these guys are riding on should have become trojans, right?”

To the five world barons, the soldiers who were obstructing Kant were nothing at all. The five pitch-black two-handed greatswords burst out with five colors and rays of incomparably dense power of rules, the strength of the two-handed greatswords in their hands reached an appalling level. Even the elite armors of the Swadian royal knights and the Sarleon lion knights that came from the system could not withstand a casual sword attack from the five of them.

Of course, the actions of the five world barons were not without consumption. At this time, the speed of their consumption of power of rules had already exceeded the speed of their recovery. If they continued to kill, their power of rules would eventually be exhausted. In the end, the extraordinary knights would fall to the level of ordinary Grand Knights. As a result, they would grind to death by the Swadian royal knights and the Sarleon lion knights with their lives.

The five world barons only wanted to clear a path to Kant’s side and engage in battle with Kant. Naturally, they would not be stupid enough to deliberately waste their precious power of rules on the Swadian royal knights and the Sarleon lion knights. Kant was also unwilling to let his elite rank six troops die in the hands of the five world barons in such a meaningless manner.
