Chapter 585: Kant’ Sensed the Abnormality
His order was effective. At this time, Carl Cameron regarded the fact that Kant voluntarily gave up the offensive advantage in his charging posture as the result of his own “wise” order, he enjoyed it very much.
After a while, Viscount Carl Cameron revealed an extremely ferocious expression. At the same time, his eyes were filled with anticipation. He activated all the extraordinary power in his body, he gave an order to the 500 black armored knights, “Black armored knights, kill them! Kill them ruthlessly! The target — the 5,000 heavy cavalries of our side who have already engaged Baron Kant’s soldiers!”
With such a countermeasure, Viscount Carl Cameron did not mind revealing a piece of information that he did not think was important when he gave the order previously, “time is pressing.”.
Viscount Carl Cameron did not think that this piece of information was important. At most, it would only make Baron Kant give the order in advance so that Baron Kant could reduce the casualty of his grand knights. However, this did not matter at all because he planned to crush Kant’s troops again in the second round of orders.
With the elite strength of 500 “black armored knights”, killing 5,000 heavy cavalries who were not resisting was not a problem at all. As long as these 5,000 official knights were killed before the runes released by the curse stone spontaneously disintegrated, the damage they received would be under the effect of the curse runes in the curse stone. When they received damage, they would also be reflected on the Swadian Royal Knights or the Sarleon Lion Knights who had fused with the curse runes released from the curse stone that they had been nurturing since they were young.
However, this damage was only an equivalent transformation, and it was not to cut off the heads of the knight-level soldiers of the Lion Fort, then the Swadian Royal Knight or the Sarleon Lion Knight who had fused with the curse runes would also have their heads cut off. However, the Swadian Royal Knights or the Sarleon Lion Knights would only receive the equivalent damages. This kind of damage could kill the knight-level soldiers of the Lion Fort. However, it would only cause serious injuries to the more powerful Swadian Royal Knights or the Sarleon Lion Knight.
This injury might not even seem to exist on the surface, but it would have the most real effect and injury reaction. If a Swadian Royal Knight or Sarleon Lion Knight simultaneously fused with the curse runes released from the curse stones thrown by more than five official knight-level heavy cavalries of Lion Fort, then when these five official knight-level heavy cavalries of Lion Fort were all killed, the damage reflected from their deaths would be stacked on the Swadian Royal Knight or Sarleon Lion Knight at the same time. It could break through the limits of the damage that the Swadian Royal Knights or the Sarleon Lion Knights could withstand, causing them to die immediately.
In the first round of attacks, there was such an unlucky Sarleon Lion Knight. He was hit by the curse runes released by six curse stones, the original owner of five of the curse stones was killed by the Swadian Royal Knights in the first round of attacks. Therefore, even if this Sarleon Lion Knight was in the middle of the group, he died immediately and fell off his warhorse.
However, the curse stones also had another characteristic. The damage caused by their suicide or the killing of other soldiers who had the curse stones, could not be reflected on the enemies who had fused with the curse runes released by their curse stones.
Therefore, if the enemies saw through the mean of the curse stones and stopped causing damage to the original owners of the curse stones, the power of the curse stones would immediately be reduced to almost no effect. However, this situation had long been predicted by the Cameron family who had researched this curse, so they had a complete follow-up method.
This time, they sent out the extremely powerful “black armored knights” to complete the killing work. Their powerful strength could very quickly harvest the lives of the 5,000 heavy cavalries who had no resistance, while harvesting the lives of their own troops, they also used curses to reflect the damage onto the Swadian Royal Knights and the Sarleon Lion Knights. In any case, the effect was no different from being killed by the Swadian Royal Knights or the Sarleon Lion Knights.
These 5,000 knights were specially trained for such a situation. When they were trained, they had long been instilled with absolute loyalty and for the Dukedom of Leo, for the Lion Fort. In order to protect their loved ones, they had to be brave enough to sacrifice themselves.
The curse stones that they had nurtured with their blood essence since they were young had already been used up. Their greatest value had already used up. If they could not be killed before the curse runes automatically disintegrated, then their greatest value would be directly wasted. Even if they survived, they would not be placed in an important position by the Lion Fort. Instead, they would be spurned. Their family members in Baron Ryan’s land would also be looked down upon by others, and they might suffer an even more tragic fate.
Therefore, these 5,000 knights were determined to die. They even wanted to die. Only if they died would they be of any use. Even if it was for the next batch of “human-shaped weapons” like them, their families would be better placed.
Viscount Carl Cameron issued a second order. He ordered 500 powerful “black armored knights” to kill 5,000 heavy cavalries who were specially trained to be official knights, he waited with a face full of anticipation for Baron Kant’s angry expression after his soldiers died one by one or were seriously injured.
However, Carl Cameron’s battlefield experience was still lacking. He had taken it for granted.
For his own selfish reasons, his little reminder of the “time is pressing” was not as useless as he imagined.
Kant treated this information as the most important information, because this information directly gave Kant his greatest hope — without this information, Kant did not know how long the enemy’s trick could last. How could one fight a war against an opponent who would receive the same amount of damage as the other party when you slashed him?
With this information, Kant can formulate a war strategy that prioritizes delay — even if it is necessary to “protect” the 5,000 soldiers from harm. This, in turn, will directly interfere with the effect of Viscount Carl Cameron’s second order.
