431 Fanciful Battle (1/2)
Lancelot sat at the entrance of the Guild For that night with Sherlock with a group of patient gamers. He had sat at the entrance for a few hours.
After treating the young girl, Lancelot felt something change within him.
Lancelot wasn't a virgin. As a Knight, it wasn't the first time he touched a woman.
In fact, he was previously exiled because of a woman.
When he was a subordinate of Glamorgan, he stayed in the same room as Count Glamorgan's wife for a night. When he woke up, he was no longer clothed, and Count Glamorgan's wife was washing his clothes and flirting with him.
Count Glamorgan came into the room and witnessed everything.
Lancelot swore that it started because he had too much to drink!
When he thought about it, he felt that someone might have framed him.
Lancelot recalled his painful experiences and felt as though he was on the bed and looking at Count Glamorgan's expression. The ironic thing was that he was now Count Glamorgan, and his territory was circled on the ground by the citizens of Victoria City.
Lilo and the citizens of Victoria City treated the nobles, their titles, and their territory like a game, but he knew they weren't joking.
How could revival be a joke?
His memories allowed Lancelot to feel the evil of the human heart and gave him a sense of discouragement.
But today, seeing the wounded girl's innocent face and flat chest, the naive feelings made Lancelot return to his youth and the girl next door…
Lancelot shook his head. It was his first time meeting the young girl. How could he have such thoughts!
The door creaked open. Untouchable cleaned his hands as he walked out.
Lancelot sprung up and asked the Elf nervously, ”How is it? The situation inside.”
”Fortunately, you provided first aid. If not, he would have died before I arrived. He's alright now, I used Mana to treat his wounds. We'll wait for the young lad to recover consciousness. He's got tough willpower,” Untouchable said.
”Great…”
Lancelot felt relieved.
A group of gamers was getting ready to dash inside, but Untouchable stopped them and said, ”Don't go inside. The wounded patient needs a lot of rest. If the arrow deviated by a few centimeters, it would have penetrated his heart. It was a great fortune. I arranged for two clean lads to take care of the young lad, so there won't be any problems.”
The gamers immediately made disgruntled noises. As for Lancelot, he felt as though his head was hammered because of the Elf's words.
”Wait, did you say young lad?”
”Ah, I know girls are more meticulous. But how do you know that the wounded lad isn't LGBT? If he's LGBT, letting girls take care of him is too cruel! Even if he's not LGBT, he won't reject being taken care of by guys!” the Elf, Untouchable, said loudly.
The gamers rebuked him immediately.
”No, like a normal person, I reject being taken care of by guys!”
”It has surfaced! Double standards have surfaced!”
”I oppose that. I strongly support LGBT!”
”I feel that he's right.”
Lancelot couldn't endure their chatting. He couldn't believe that the person who made his heart thump faster was a lad.
”Holy cow!”
While it was noisy outside, there was an exclamation shriek coming from inside the house. A gamer ran out and shouted, ”That lad said that 3,000 Knights of the Duke of York arrived at Goldshire Town three days ago! They're coming to attack us!”
”What! That fast?”
Lancelot was shocked. He turned around and ran towards the Castle. There was no reason for the wounded lad to lie. Though it wasn't known why he was helping Victoria City, the important thing was to defend Victoria City.
Some gamers followed Lancelot, while others stayed put to see if there was any development of the Plot.
Victoria City was filled with a sense of happiness.
…
”Boom, boom, boom.”
The galloping of horses was heard on a small hill not far from Victoria Forest.
The 3,000 Knights of the York Territory spent a day arriving there, and they quickly chose a location for their battle plan.
The terrain was hilly and suitable for deployment, and there were no trees on either side. Only 500 Knights were required to bait the main forces of Victoria City out. With the Knights charging from high ground and infantry charging forward, it was a sure win situation.
Even if Victoria City had 30,000 troops, they would be defeated.
The golden-haired commander rode his horse and surveyed his Knights. Behind the Knights were about 10,000 foot soldiers who were also the servants of the Knights. They served the Knights when not in battle. During the battle, they became light Cavalry, Infantry, or reserve troops.
The golden-haired commander didn't bring along any steam-powered weapons. It was going to be a massacre, so there was no need to bring along the big toys.
”John!” the golden-haired commander shouted at a black-haired Knight who rode his horse forward and looked at the commander.
”You'll deploy here. I'll lead the 500 Knights to bait them!”
”Sir George! You're a commander. It's too dangerous to be bait. Let me go instead!” John said righteously. Before he finished speaking, a few nearby Knights ran over and shouted, ”Commander! There's a large group of enemies charging from the forest!”
”What? What did you say?” George couldn't believe his ears. More and more Knights ran out from the forest, and birds took flight from the fright. Indeed, there was a large group of people moving in the woods.
”Everyone, prepare for battle!”
George gave the order to the Knights who were resting behind them.
The Knights were fast. At the same time, the servants pulled out their long-range weapons. The warriors of Victoria City would be met with the raining of arrows.
The Duke of York's order was to enslave the citizens of Victoria City. But from the viewpoint of a battle, they had to defeat and intimidate the enemy before capturing them.
The Knights spent little time getting into their formation.
The servants pulled out their Short Bows and stood in the front row. The back rows were made up of foot soldiers, while the middle rows and the flanks were made up of 1,000 Knights.
When the battle commenced, the Knights would attack the enemy from different directions and timing. Of course, that was only if the enemy was the main force.
