In a valley dozens of meters wide!

Archimonde and his knights who were leading the way stopped.

There are a total of fifty knights wearing heavy armor, and their strength is at least elite level and above, and there are also a few ace level ones.

All members were riding tall Ter war horses.

Although this kind of war horse is not a magical beast or a special creature, it is definitely the best mount.

High load-bearing capacity, strong endurance, and good spirituality.

The key point is that it can be mass-produced, but it also requires tens of thousands of gold coins per horse to have the opportunity to purchase it.

Moreover, raising them is extremely expensive, and they are simply more difficult to maintain than humans.

It’s no wonder that in the heroic world, knighthood is not only a profession, but also an identity.

Because those who can afford a mount cannot be from the ordinary class.

Of course, the players' knight profession has nothing to do with the status of knight, it is just a simple profession.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Archimonde stop, Tolan thought something was wrong.

"It's okay, it's just that we are going to Mingyue City soon, and we need to discuss the distribution of benefits again!"

Xiao Zijian looked calm, as if he really wanted to discuss the distribution of benefits.

"You want to raise your price from the ground up..."

Tolan was interrupted before he finished speaking.

puff!

The sound of the sharp blade piercing flesh was not loud, but it plunged the valley into deathly silence.

Half of the sword tip came out from the back of Tolan, the pirate king, with bright red blood dripping from it.

Choke, choke!

There was a constant sound of weapons being drawn, and all the pirates drew their weapons.

"You...why?"

Because of his strong vitality, Tolan did not die immediately even if his heart was pierced, but looked at him in complete confusion.

He is not someone who easily trusts others.

But it is no secret that the Griffin Principality and Mingyue City are not at odds with each other, and I was saved by the other party a few years ago, so I trusted the other party and did not expect to be betrayed.

"Even if Mingyue City is conquered, the Griffin Principality cannot occupy it, but you can gain friendship and benefits by saving the other party. If it were you, what would you choose?

Archimonde explained like a graceful nobleman.

This is easy to understand.

It is useless even if the Griffin Principality covets Mingyue City.

Because the other seven principalities will definitely hold back and not allow it to occupy, but if it is friendship and interests, then the other seven principalities will naturally not be able to stop it.

For Mingyue City, as long as they pay some benefits and 'friendship', they can solve the pirates that have caused them so many headaches. It is a huge gain. How could they not agree?

Thus, this trap specifically set for Tolan, the pirate king, and the pirates in this area appeared.

And it only started a few years ago.

Generally speaking, when it comes to conspiracy, the pirates are scum compared to the nobles.

"Good bye my friend'!"

Archmonk drew his sword and let Tolan's body fall softly to the ground.

At this time, other pirates also reacted.

"How dare he kill Tolan!"

",Throw this xxx guy into the sea and feed it to the fish!"

"Fuck me!"

…

The pirates would not let the traitor go, and were ready to hack him to death.

The pirates in the valley are all elite, even with champion-level combat capabilities. If they really attack, they can chop Archimonde into pieces in a few rounds, even if he is a champion.

But just then….

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

A terrifying explosion that shook the earth erupted from the valley.

No matter how strong they are, it doesn't mean that the flesh and blood body turns into something else. Faced with such a sudden explosion, the pirates still can't withstand it.

At this point, it all depends on their ability to save their lives.

An explosion with such power was probably caused by an 'alchemy bomb'.

This is a dangerous item that requires at least an "alchemist" to produce. It has a lot of restrictions, but if used properly, it can also have terrible effects.

At this time, the pirates realized the horror of the 'alchemy bomb'.

The horrific explosion lasted for more than a minute!

And this minute or so is definitely the slowest time the pirates have ever felt in their lives.

When the explosion subsided, the pungent smell of blood and the brutal slaughterhouse-like scene in the valley were enough to make people stunned.

Except for the feeble death groans, the valley was completely silent.

Of course, there are not no survivors, there are quite a few.

First of all, Archimonde and the others retreated to the entrance of the valley at some unknown time and met up with his knights.

And in the valley where the smoke has cleared, many pirates are still alive.

After all, there are nearly 10,000 elite pirates and it is impossible to deal with all the alchemy bombs. Even if Mingyue City can afford this cost, it will not be able to find so many alchemy bombs.

Alchemy bombs are not just street food, you can get them if you want them.

Being able to get such a batch is already a credit to collecting them in advance. Otherwise, there is absolutely no hope of using alchemy bombs to deal with so many elite pirates.

Of course there is another reason.

It's just that the pirates didn't do their best to conduct reconnaissance, otherwise how could they not discover so many alchemy bombs.

Archimonde!

Without the other party, it would be difficult to determine the route forward, and it would be difficult to know where to bury the alchemical bomb. At the same time, it was also because of the other party that the pirates did not discover the alchemical bomb.

Insider!

This time the other party perfectly did what a mole should do.

But now, he must face the counterattack of the nearly a thousand strongest pirates who survived.

The weak pirates had already suffered all their casualties in the explosion just now, and those who survived now were all extremely powerful. Even if they were at the elite level, they were definitely the kind of ruthless characters who could challenge higher levels.

Faced with this dangerous situation, a flash of disdain flashed in Archmonk's eyes, he held his sword in his hand and urged his horses to charge forward.

"kill!"

Yes, not only did he not escape, but he took the initiative to attack.

"kill!"

Dozens of knights behind him also responded in unison, riding horses and wielding guns to use their charging skills to keep up.

Only at this moment can we see why these knights carry mounts and armor, it is just for now.

Still heavy armor!

Once the mask is put down, the entire body, including the eyes, is protected by transparent crystal armor.

Facing this kind of Iron Knight, anyone could easily avoid the opponent if they were in other places.

But in a narrow terrain like a valley with cliffs on both sides, it is really unavoidable.

Bows and arrows...muskets, spells!

Various long-range attacks drowned dozens of knights like a heavy rain.

pity….

The knight can become one of the two unique professions in the castle camp, which naturally has something special about it.

Except for the effect of spells, whether it is a bow or a musket, this kind of physical attack has no effect at all on a knight wearing heavy armor.

Any pirate who stood in front of the war horse was instantly knocked away, and either died or suffered serious injuries.
