Chapter 755: Chapter 499: Battle in the Skies Above the Fortress_1
Time seemed to slow down as the sky began to lighten. Facing the cold winds, the formation of the ten wyvern knights shifted abruptly.
In a flash, they increased their distance from one another.
Like scattered shooting stars, they formed a loose wedge, charging toward the vast formation of griffin knights.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and by the time the soldiers on the battlefield realized what was happening.
The seemingly disorganized wyvern knights squad swooped through the sky, closing in on the overwhelming griffin knights.
After a moment of stunned silence, excitement spread across the faces of the Coldflame Army soldiers at the Three Fortresses.
Although they didn’t know where this wyvern knight squad had come from, it was clear that they were here to aid their allies!
Cheers erupted from the Coldflame Army, echoing across the battlefield.
“I didn’t expect him to have an entire wyvern knight squad equipped with Tier 4 equipment. Judging by their skilled movements, their strength is definitely not inferior to those of the griffin knights,” said Ariel Watson, her delicate face showing a mix of surprise and joy as she turned to Leo Ray.
It was well known that Azure Pterosaurs were more ferocious and difficult to tame than griffins.
As a result, training a wyvern knight was much more challenging than training a griffin knight.
Furthermore, due to their lifelong bond with their Azure Pterosaurs, wyvern knights possessed an exceptional level of understanding with their mounts, much more so than ordinary griffin knights.
However, before Ariel and the Coldflame soldiers could celebrate much longer, a sense of unease crept over their faces once more.
After all, the enemy had a hundred-man elite Griffin Knight Squadron.
Even if these ten wyvern knights had superior equipment and skills,
their mounts, the Azure Pterosaurs, were not much more powerful than the opposing griffins.
The key issue was that, compared to the strong, heavily armored griffins,
the Azure Pterosaurs were more fragile and at a disadvantage in head-on collisions and melee combat.
No matter how strong and well-equipped the wyvern knights were, they would be in trouble if their enemies focused their attacks on their mounts.
After all, once an Azure Pterosaur suffered a fatal injury, it was all over.
Realizing this, Ariel and the Coldflame soldiers swallowed nervously.
It seemed that relying merely on the wyvern knight squad to face the immense Griffin Knight Squadron was too much of a stretch.
On the other side of the battlefield, the Saint Night Army soldiers sneered in disdain after their initial shock.
Their proud Griffin Knight Squadron had once annihilated an elite Tier 2 unit of a thousand soldiers without suffering any casualties!
Now their opponents dared to send only a ten-man Sky Knight squad in response, which was laughable and an act of utter overconfidence!
Above the moonlit sky, the commanding Griffin Knight observed the approaching wyvern knights Sean and his colleagues from behind his closed helmet, a playful smile forming at the corner of his mouth.
“With such a sloppy formation, they dare to confront us head-on. This is a foolish act of overestimation,” he thought.
As the killing intent surged within him, the Griffin Knight Commander gave orders through the special communication enchantment on his helmet: “All soldiers, form the most compact arrowhead formation to face the enemy, focusing on their mounts. Let us stain the battlefield with the blood of these wyvern knights and add to our undefeated record.”
Pausing for a moment, the commander’s murderous intent deepened as he continued ominously, “Right now, we are the absolute focal point of the battlefield. Let’s show these foolish adversaries our power and display our glory to everyone else.”
Upon the commander’s orders, the hundred-strong Griffin Knight Squadron quickly closed in, forming a sharp arrowhead.
In an instant, hundreds of colorful lances stood erect,
Bringing a bone-chilling wind and murderous intent with them as they charged straight toward Sean and the others.
“From the Otherworld, are you sure that these ten wyvern knights can compete with the enemy’s Griffin Knight Squadron?” Ariel asked Leo Ray, her worry clearly visible on her face.
“My goal is not just to compete with them,” said Leo Ray, raising an eyebrow. “It’s to wipe them all out!”
“Wipe… wipe them all out?!” Ariel’s eyes widened, her curls seemingly about to stand on end. “How is that possible?!”
“Well, let’s just wait and see.”
