It feels so good to stick to Miss Witch

Marching all the way, about an hour later, the knight team arrived at the destination.

This is a wide and barren gravel area, and small stone mountains can be faintly seen in the distance.

Starting from the junction of Heishi Ling and Tieshan Ling, heading south in the direction of Tieshan Ling, basically the terrain is like this, and there is no farmland suitable for farming.

Every year, the Tieshan Territory spends a lot of money to buy food from other territories, but even so, in the extremely cold winter, many citizens will still starve to death or freeze to death due to lack of food.

When Roy and the others arrived, there was still half an hour before the appointed time, and at this moment, the people from Iron Mountain had not yet arrived.

This made Roy a little strange.

Logically speaking, Tieshanling should be far more anxious than our side, why hasn't it come yet?

Could it be that something unexpected happened?

Shaking his head, Roy was too lazy to think about it.Unless Tieshan Territory gives up this "territory merger battle", they will come sooner or later.

As for them giving up the fight?

No matter how you think about it, it is impossible.

Once the "territory merger battle" is started with the permission of the empire, it will be binding on the territories of both parties involved.If the Iron Mountain Territory chooses to avoid and not fight, it is tantamount to admitting defeat automatically, which will cause the territory of the Iron Mountain Territory to be automatically merged into the Blackstone Territory.

The cool wind of late autumn is coming, and because the barren gravel area lacks shelter from the wind, the wind is even more bitter.

Feeling the deep coolness contained in the wind blowing in from the gap in the helmet, Roy knew that winter was approaching.

In fact, after the "Plenty Soil Festival" every year, the temperature will gradually drop. By the end of September, the temperature will be as low as negative. From October to the end of December, it is a cold winter that lasts for three months.

The heavy snow will block the mountains and roads, making trade very difficult. If there is no adequate preparation for the winter, it is common for the people to starve to death or freeze to death.

And in the cold winter, there will be a tacit truce between the Glory Empire and the Collet Empire, and the war will not continue until the spring of the next year.

The winter in this world is far more terrifying than in the previous life.

Roy's thoughts gradually drifted away.

10 minutes later, with only 10 minutes left before the agreed time, there were loud sounds of hooves and running in the distance.

"Ta Tata..."

Roy looked up and saw a large group of black cavalry rushing towards where they were.

The jet-black armor is precisely the fine iron ore produced in the Iron Mountain Territory—the high-quality armor forged from the black mine. The black armor is widely praised among many nobles in the Rafah Province.

It is precisely by virtue of excellent iron ore and superb forging technology that the lord of Iron Mountain, Lord Denham, has been able to develop into what he is now with a bitterly cold territory.

"Sorry-"

The black torrent stopped 50 meters in front of the knight team led by Reid.

Nearly forty fully-armed knights wore black armor and held weapons made of black iron. The air of iron and blood killing came oncoming, coupled with the strong sense of oppression emanating from the two burly figures at the front of the team. The hearts of the Blackstone collar knights trembled, and their morale dropped a bit.

Seeing the performance of the knights behind him, Reid was disappointed in his heart, but he didn't say anything.

He stared at the two burly knights at the front, and said in a solemn voice: "Lord Iron Mountain, and Jax the Bronze Knight."

"We have come to meet the promise of the war, and you, are you ready to die here?"

"Only by you? The tone is not small." Lord Denham, the lord of the Iron Mountain, did not speak. The bronze knight Jax beside him sneered: "I hope your ability is worthy of your tone."

"It's useless to talk too much, let's set the rules for how to fight." Reid's face was stern, and his right hand was holding the hilt of the knight's sword at his waist.

Hearing this, Lord Denham, the lord of Iron Mountain, took a few steps forward on his horse: "Red, I know your strength very well, and you must also know the strength of our side."

"There is no point in killing for no reason. Let's make a deal for three battles. You and I will each send three people to fight each other. The one with the most victories will be the winner. What do you think?"

When he said this, Lord Denham, Lord of Iron Mountain, had a faint confident smile on his face.

In his cognition, there is no suspense in this "territory merger battle".

On the side of the Blackstone collar, not only are there fewer official knights than the Tieshan collar, and their weapons and equipment are slightly inferior, but they are also far inferior in terms of high-end combat power.

He himself is a three-star bronze knight, while Jax is a one-star bronze knight, and Red himself is the only two-star bronze knight in the Blackstone collar. Even if it is one-on-one, he is confident that he can defeat Red within five moves, let alone Two against one.

Therefore, in his opinion, the "Contract of Three Wars" proposed by him is essentially a gift, a step for the knights led by the Black Stone to face some defeats.

It would be better if Red was willing to go down the steps. After all, battles would cause damage. These knights were saved by him through hard work, and every loss made him feel heartbroken.

But if Reid doesn't know how to praise, he doesn't mind letting the knights of the Blackstone collar die here.

And the result was not as expected by Lord Denham, the lord of Iron Mountain.

Facing the "Contract of Three Wars" proposed by him, Reid was silent for a moment and agreed.

"it is good."

Chapter 38 Showdown

On the barren gravel ground, the bleak autumn wind blew past.

After the "Three Wars Covenant" was set, the scene became more and more serious.

"So, who is the first one of you to appear on the stage?" Lord Denham, the lord of Iron Mountain, was riding on a tall horse with a smile on his face, but no matter how you looked at it, this smile looked like an old fox who was about to succeed in his scheme. smile.

"Tom, you go to the first game." Reid shouted with a stern face.

"Yes!" Behind Red, a knight captain rode out.

Tom, an old knight who has served in the Blackstone collar for ten years, is already at the level of a senior formal knight. With his skilled swordsmanship and experience, he is the strongest among the five knight captains.

Lord Denham, the lord of Iron Mountain on the opposite side, clapped his hands when he saw this, "Andru."

In the next second, a burly knight with a height of nearly two meters and a round waist straddled out behind him.

Only in terms of physique, this person is even better than Lord Denham of Iron Mountain and his attendant knight Jax. Such a figure means that in the confrontation of formal knights, he will occupy an extremely important position in terms of strength and physique. big advantage.

A knight builds up his physique, and before he has mastered fighting spirit and is promoted to bronze, the comparison is who is physically stronger, and there is a gap between people, even if they are in the same realm, the strength will also vary due to the difference between individuals.

Undoubtedly, anyone with a discerning eye can see that in terms of physique, Anduru, who is 1.9 meters tall, is undoubtedly much stronger than Thom, who is only [-] meters tall.

Although the victory or defeat of the battle does not necessarily mean that whoever is physically strong will win, but the disadvantages visible to the naked eye at the beginning undoubtedly further lowered the low morale of the Blackstone collar knights, and their eyes dimmed.

Lord Denham, the lord of Iron Mountain, saw this scene, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Since the warring parties have been selected, let's begin."

"can."

On the barren and open gravel ground, two official knights rode out slowly on their horses, and did not stop until the distance between the two sides was 30 meters.

"咴咴..."

The war horse also seemed to sense the upcoming battle, breathing heavily.

"Your name is Tom, right? Next, are you ready to face failure?" Anduru twisted his neck with a smirk.

"That's a lot of nonsense." Tom snorted coldly, drew the big sword behind him, and took the lead in charging.

"Tap..."

The armored war horse galloped wildly, and the gravel on the ground nearby jumped slightly due to the strong vibration.

A formal knight who puts on armor and rides a horse is the perfect body in the true sense.

The tyrannical physique of a formal knight is twice the limit of ordinary people, and with the help of the charge of the horse, the lethality that can be unleashed is far beyond ordinary people's imagination.

Ordinary people are almost indistinguishable from flimsy paper in front of such heavy cavalry.

Seeing Tom's side starting to charge, Anduru laughed and urged the horse under his crotch to run wildly.

From a distance, two black streamers collided head-on.

"clang--"

Tom's weapon is a big sword, while Anduru's weapon is a huge axe, both of which are heavy weapons.

But in the first collision between the two sides, Thom suffered a lot.

The horsepower of the horses was about the same on both sides, even because the charging distance was longer, Thom still had a slight advantage, but in terms of the knight's own strength, he was more than one step behind Andru. The moment the weapons clashed, The strong shock force almost made him unable to hold the big sword in his hand.

Such a terrifying power even gave Tom the illusion that "this guy is already a bronze knight".

Facing Anduru's subsequent vertical strikes, if Tom hadn't been very experienced, he turned sideways in advance, and at the same time used his shoulders to support the blade of the big sword, causing the giant ax to slide to one side, and he would have been shot down at this moment.

The horses staggered past and began to circle relative to each other 30 meters apart.

On the side of Iron Mountain Territory, Lord Denham's smile was even better, while on the side of Black Stone Territory, Red's face was a bit ugly.

As the Bronze Knight, the two of them guessed the outcome of the battle after only one confrontation.

Andrew will win!

This "little giant" with a height of two meters and one meter has too great a physical advantage in the formal knight stage.

"Law~~~"

The war horse roared, and after a short rest, Thom and Anduru launched a second charge at the same time.

The black streamers collided again, and after the "dull" sound of weapons colliding, a figure fell heavily off the horse, rolled on the ground for more than ten meters, and barely stopped.

Thom half-kneeled on the ground, with one hand propped on the ground and the other covering his abdomen. In the collision just now, Anduru broke out with more terrifying force than before. In just a moment, his hands were torn apart, and blood overflowed. .

If it hadn't been for the last moment when he used the big sword to hold his body in front of him, I'm afraid the current him would not be as simple as falling off the horse, but would have been directly cut in half by the giant axe.

In front of the leader of Tieshan, Andulu stopped on his horse, holding a huge ax in his hand, with a disdainful expression on his face: "That's all, huh?"

Hearing this, Tom on the ground blushed, but he was powerless to refute.

"This round, we lost."

"Tom, come back."

Reid's deep voice came out, hearing the words, Thom returned to the team with difficulty holding a big sword.

"In the first round, we sent people first, and in the second round, it's up to you to send first?" Reid said expressionlessly.

"Of course." Lord Denham, Lord of Iron Mountain, smiled, "Jax, I'll leave the second round to you."

"Yes, Lord!"

Beside Lord Denham, the lord of Iron Mountain, the Bronze Knight Jax, who was half behind him, rode out and came to the front of the team. He held a black spear in his hand, and stared coldly at the knights of the Blackstone collar on the opposite side. .

Lord Denham, Lord of Iron Mountain, looked at Red with a smile.

In the first round, Tieshan Territory won, which means that it only needs to win another round, and Tieshan Territory won this "territory merger battle".

As for the Blackstone collar, there is only one bronze knight, and that is Red himself.
