The pack of gray-and-white wolves was exposed to everyone, and their number was roughly calculated to be several hundred.
An accompanying young guard loosened his finger on the bowstring because of nervousness, and the arrow shot out through the wind, shooting a gray wolf to the ground!
"Don't attack lightly, we don't have enough arrows!"
Ashley held up his palm to stop it.
The gray wolf in the middle twisted its neck and struggled a few times, fell to the ground and twitched a few times, and then died.
The surrounding wolves stopped in their tracks and quickly surrounded them. Someone let out a long howl, and then the wolves began to eat the corpse of the gray wolf.
The gray wolf's pink intestines flowed out along the split belly, exuding fresh heat.
The cruel sight of cannibalism sent chills down the spine, and Ashley stood in front of Lily, blocking her view.
She noticed that she and Ella Williams were the only ones present with unchanged expressions, and her eyes narrowed slightly. The young girl who looked young had probably seen more cruel things.
In her opinion, that shouldn't be too common even among magicians.
The blood inspired the ferocity of the beasts. The wolves lowered their bodies and ran with their claws on the snow without making a sound.
The wolves quickly approached the cave and increased their speed again, like an army charging!
At this time, Ella chanted a spell and generated a stream of flames as thin as a wrist.
The flames looked a little dim in the wind and snow. Compared to Ella's previous level, the scale was extremely small, and the magic power contained was also very weak.
But it still played a key role. The wolves fled from both sides like flames because of instinct, and the smell of burnt fur also lifted the spirits of the guards!
"Fire arrows!"
Ashley grabbed a bow, put three feathered arrows on the bowstring, and pulled out a full moon!
Whoosh!
All three arrows hit, piercing through the wolf's skull!
The powerful arrow force actually pushed the running adult wild wolves backwards. They staggered back a few steps, then collapsed on the ground, and were swallowed up by the sea of gray-white fur in an instant.
Dozens of feathered arrows shot out, knocking down the pack of wolves rushing forward and separated by the flames, and a few were stabbed to the ground by the spear.
"How many more spells can you use?"
Lily's eyes lit up and she asked hurriedly,
"My body is injured, and the flame stream like just now should barely be able to summon three times."
Ella rubbed the center of her eyebrows with one hand, enduring the stinging pain from her head.
But a strange singing sounded from behind her, it was a language that Ella didn't understand, but it seemed to contain some kind of magic.
She could feel that the pain in her head was relieved, and the dormant magic power showed signs of recovery. Although the effect was a little weak, her condition did improve!
Without further delay, Ayla took a few steps forward, and a magnificent wall of fire rose outside the cave. It was twenty feet long and more than ten feet high!
In fact, Ella's magic power is far from returning to the normal level, but it got inspiration from Ulysses Philip's magic. In fact, most of this wall of fire is an illusion of ostentation, and the magic power contained is not much.
But for a beast with low intelligence, the burning and oppressive feeling is really real!
Several rounds of volleys followed, and dozens of wolves trapped between the fire wall and the cave fell to the ground one after another.
The frightened wolves retreated, but they still gathered in the forest, and the piercing howling was endless.
The accompanying guards thus had a breathing space.
"Good job, miss!"
"Thank you!"
Ashley signaled them not to relax, now there were only four or five arrows left in everyone's quiver, even if they all shot perfectly, it was far from enough to kill the wolves.
"Thanks to you just now, this kind of magic is rare... To be honest, I think you are better than those arrogant old magicians in the territory."
Ella smiled and didn't answer.
The female knight came to Ella, then put away her smile, and her expression became a little more serious. She asked,
"How long can your wall of fire last? Can it last until dawn?"
Ella shook her head.
"It's the same as I guessed, but it won't work like this...you can see it too."
"Yes, I can last for another two hours at most, and it's still a long time before dawn. We don't have enough bows and arrows, and we can't deal with all the wolves. If this continues—"
Ella remembered Ashley's skills and slightly modified the remaining half of the sentence.
"Maybe you can escape with Lily, but everyone else will probably die."
"Probably?"
What Ella Williams said earlier is the same as she thought. Although as a knight, she will not abandon her companions, but protecting Lily Bell's safety is her top priority. She will undoubtedly come at the last moment make a choice under the circumstances.
But another meaning hidden in the other party's words was beyond Ashley's expectations.
"Do you still have any other hole cards?"
"...It's just not sure."
Ella didn't know if she could still use that ritual, nor did she know what the consequences would be if she used it in this situation.
Maybe she will lose her magic power like she did five years ago, but it's not too bad a result compared to being killed by a wolf.
"So we can't just pin our hopes on a half-baked plan, can we?"
Ella looked at Ashley in surprise.
"Do you have another method?"
"Of course, a knight's way."
Ashley said so.
Chapter 7 The Knight and the White Wolf
"See that white wolf?"
Ashley pointed in a certain direction.
"where?"
Ella looked up and saw a huge white wolf on the hillside. It was obviously different from the surrounding ones, as big as a colt.
The white wolf let out a low growl, and the others around him formed a scattered circle.
"It's probably a wolf. Wolves are different from other wild beasts. They are more like an army. The wolf is the leader of the army. This is no different from marching and fighting. Once the wolf dies, the wolf pack will collapse."
Ashley Chevalier said so.
But Ella was frowning. Ashley might be right, but there was a problem.
"It's so far away that your short bows can't reach that distance."
"Yes."
Ashley picked up a spear from the ground, calmed the frightened horse, and straddled it.
"Then just bring it out!"
"It's too risky...but there's no other way, okay, I'll cover you."
Ashley pulled the rein, and the steed, which had been restless because of fear, suddenly became quiet, and it raised its hooves, protruding like lightning!
Lily was startled, she only stretched her hand into the air, and the knight had already protruded out of the cave!The followers were also at a loss, they raised their crossbows but dared not continue to move, Ashley's actions were almost suicidal.
The wall of fire was torn in the middle, and under Ella's movements, it was pulled apart like a curtain on both sides. The snowflakes rolled back, and Ashley's silver-white cloak made a sound like splitting in the north wind!
The moment there was a gap in the fire wall, the wolves swarmed up again, closing the distance by more than ten meters in an instant!
"Don't shoot arrows!"
Lily ordered.
At the same time, Ashley judged that the shooting range was enough, she pulled out the crossbow from behind, and shot an arrow!
But the wolf seemed to have noticed it a long time ago, it flexibly turned around, and the feathered arrow nailed to the trunk behind it.
"Pity!"
Lily slapped her palm and sighed angrily.
Ella's expression remained unchanged, which was what she expected.
The unusually sized alpha wolf shouldn't be that easy to kill.
The alpha wolf let out a furious growl, jumped out, and quickly disappeared into a piece of gray fur. It was hiding among the pack of wolves like a ghost, approaching quickly!
At this time, the wild wolves had completed the encirclement around Ashley, and the eyes of two of them were green with hunger. They rushed straight to the neck of the galloping horse, and they were about to bite it off!
Ashley pulled the rein sharply, and the steed stood upright under her strength. Its height instantly overwhelmed the wild wolf in mid-air, and its two hooves stepped down and crushed the hungry wolf's skull!
Then, the barrel of the lance slid to the end in her hand, and Ashley swept out a semicircle with one hand, stirring up a large area of blood on the ground. The whole area was covered with the stumps and broken legs of wild wolves!
"Is that an action that a human can do—"
Ella couldn't help being awed. Ashley Chevalier's skill was beyond her imagination. Originally, she thought that the opponent was at most comparable to Ling. , and more than Ling without using the ancestral spell.
That should be a movement honed on the battlefield, crisp, fast and effective.
That is different from magic, another kind of power.
As she said herself, she was a knight—a knight who took the center of the field!
Ashley brandished his lance again and stabbed a hungry wolf in the throat, but the beast that was supposed to die was biting the barrel of the gun tightly, and the teeth rubbed against the metal to make a scalp-numbing sound!
The movement of Ashley's right hand was blocked for a short moment.
At this time, the giant wolf hidden among its kind moved. It seized this moment, jumped up from the shadows, and pounced on the knight on horseback!
The knight could not draw back the spear in his right hand, nor had time to draw his sword with his left.
"Ashley!"
Lily yelled in panic, but her voice was quickly swallowed by howling wolves.
