Lieutenant General Dutch was patrolling the area. He looked like an old horseman, with aging and inelastic skin around his eyes, but he still had an energetic light in his gaze.
“It’s not too late for you two to change your mind. Once we penetrate deep into the enemy lines, we will either perish as scattering ashes or claim the victory,” he spoke up after seeing Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan again.
“Don’t worry, the places we’ve been to in the past weren’t peaceful either!” Mo Fan replied.
“Fine, if we can make it back to Banlo City in one piece, I’ll stake you two some drinks. I’ve kept a few bottles of twenty-year-old Langi Shiraz in my cellar!” The Lieutenant General pulled the reins and turned the Eagle Horse toward the enemy camp.
Dutch seemed to be an alcoholic. He was carrying a wineskin at his waist. He took off the cap and emptied it, as if he knew he might not have the chance to drink it later.
The alcohol was strong. His face flushed hotly after drinking it.
“Lieutenant General, it’s not wise to drink and ride. Those who ride do not drink,” Mo Fan pointed out.
Dutch turned around and replied, “That mare of a mule you are riding is just like a new recruit. You can’t afford to be too gentle to her. Otherwise, she will not fear you and will not obey your commands!”
Dutch threw the sack of wine at the Eagle Horse Mo Fan was riding.
The Eagle Horse failed to dodge it in time. Its head bled from the impact.
Mo Fan quickly pulled the reins to prevent the Eagle Horse from throwing him to the ground.
“It’s time to head out!” Dutch flew into the sky. He was riding a Ruler-level Eagle Horse covered in blue and golden feathers. They were glowing brightly under the dim and gloomy sky!
“Charge!”
“Charge!”
Mo Fan was struggling to estimate the number of the Eagle Horse Skyriders, but he was sure it was less than a thousand.
The Eagle Horses were several times larger than ordinary horses. The higher-quality ones were around four times the size. They were as majestic as horses and as ferocious as eagles!
The Eagle Horse Skyriders’ numbers might be a lot less than the ground army, but the sight of the Eagle Horses rising into the sky in formation was more awe-striking than a regiment of ten thousand soldiers.
The gray-blue Eagle Horses sprinted into the sky and spread their wings in the heavy rain. The ground army was as tiny as petty insects below.
The Eagle Horses beat their wings steadily, at the same pace as the movement of their hooves.
Mo Fan’s Eagle Horse behaved a lot better after it was hit in the head. The Lieutenant General was indeed experienced, knowing that it was unwise to treat these stubborn creatures too kindly!

Mo Fan followed the Eagle Horse Skyriders. The Venomous Insect Shamans were unable to use the same tricks they were abusing the ground army with on the riders in the sky. The Eagle Horse Skyriders soon bypassed the defense line set up by the Venomous Insect Shamans.
