Chapter 207: One-sided fight
In Mondstadt, inside the woods outside the fifth city, on the outskirts of the forest very close to the plains, the sound of close combat between the two armies was heard, which also alerted the maid group that had been ambushed outside the woods.
Vanila Rui was wearing the exclusive knight armor of the maid group. She had already drawn the bowstring to its full extent and was pointing it at both sides of the battlefield. The tension and hesitation in her eyes made her dare not let go of the bowstring.
Six and a half months ago, she was successfully brought to the fifth city, a very safe place, by her dying old butler. She was then taken to the manor outside the city woods by the city lord's smiling maid. Fortunately, she became a member of the maid corps and began five or six months of cleaning work and training.
Today, she is no longer the little girl who cried bitterly because someone mentioned her life experience, but a member of the manor maid group, powerful enough to face an ordinary knight group of one hundred.
But even though she was so powerful, she didn't dare to kill a chicken, and never let her weapon be stained with blood. The decision to bring Vanilara to the battlefield today was arranged by No. 1 Ye Li.
After all, in the entire maid corps, only Vanilarai had not experienced the true baptism of battlefield. If she couldn't get over this hurdle, she would die in this chaotic world sooner or later.
On the battlefield, the sound of weapons clashing and the sparks of metal clashing continued to bloom in the falling snow. Bloody blooming roses and fallen figures filled the snow, dyeing the pure white into red.
Di Cass and Carlo's swordsmanship was superb and efficient. They charged directly from two directions, and their terrifying attack power and quick reaction knocked the enemy soldiers and horses to the ground. The two of them could kill hundreds of people by themselves. A strong bloody aura filled the air around them, shocking the knights who wanted to get close to them.
The balance of victory for both sides had long since shifted to Dicas and his men. Even if the enemy leader wanted to give command, he would be shot in the head by an arrow that suddenly appeared from a certain direction, causing the army to fall into chaos.
The enemy was defeated and fled at the very beginning, and the chasing Dicas and his men kept leading them to deliberate positions to ensure that no one could escape.
……
In the woods on the west side of the battlefield, Norli, with a cold look in her eyes and a fully drawn bowstring, turned her head to look at the somewhat nervous Vanilarui beside her, and said in a serious tone:
"Don't hesitate. Wait until Dicas drives the enemy to this position and shoot directly. Think about what young girls like you have encountered along the way."
Vanilara's hands trembled, and he recalled how the old butler had struggled to bring him to the fifth city six and a half months ago. In order to protect him, he had to face countless villain knights who pretended to be loyal to the king but were actually bandits.
Recalling the greedy look on the face of a certain knight who had looked at her, there was no hesitation on Vanilari's face. The cold and resolute eyes made Norli nod with relief, no need to bother her with his special care for the past six months.
The enemy was led by Dicas to the woods on one side and was getting closer and closer. The head of the maid group, Norli, had a cold look on her face. When the enemy approached a hundred meters away, she said loudly:
"Fire arrows!"
As Norli gave the order, countless arrows flew out from the woods. Each arrow was as fast as a bullet. The whizzing sound of arrows breaking through the air carried the anger of every maid and pierced through countless writing knights and lone evil bandits.
The sudden long-range attack caused the already chaotic army to further scatter, and some people who were lucky enough not to be hit by arrows had already approached the woods within 50 meters, but the second round of attacks had already swarmed in.
The whizzing sound of breaking through the air was heard again, and the more scattered enemy troops were shot through again. A small half of them wanted to stop halfway, but Dicas and others who were chasing them from behind were chasing them like a death warrant.
The enemy knew very well that whether they retreated or moved forward, they would die. Their only chance of survival was to charge forward, because there were gaps in the archers' attacks, and this was their chance to survive. The only option was to charge forward.
There was a fierce light flashing in the enemy's eyes, and their crazy roars and tightly clenched weapons in their hands gave them courage. However, the third round of attacks followed, and another group of people fell.
The three rounds of attacks had a miraculous effect within a hundred meters, directly reducing the number of enemy members by two hundred. Some bandit knights who rushed into the woods also saw the armored maids, and a trace of evil fire flashed in their eyes, but the death warrant behind them forced them to destroy them with ruthless hands.
Although dreams are nice, the reality is very cruel. The moment the bandit knights came into close combat, they understood why the term "female tomboy" existed.
The terrifying force sent them flying. The pain of the sword scratching their necks lasted only a moment, and they only saw their bodies falling headless.
Vanilara clenched the sword in her hand, with a trace of fear on her pale face, looking at the bandit knight who swung the sword at her. More than six months of training made her body instinctively raise the sword to block.
With a clang! Feeling the force coming, Vanilara subconsciously bent and swung the sword, successfully stabbing the robber knight in the chest, giving him a chill.
The bandit knight's eyes widened as he felt the pain in his heart. He looked at the blue-and-white-haired girl in front of him. Endless fear flashed in his eyes, and his consciousness fell into eternal darkness.
Norli raised the greatsword and spun around, killing six knights who rushed towards her. She threw a punch with terrifying force at the foot, and the pressure of the strong wind immediately blasted out a cloud of snow, blocking the enemy's sight.
Vanilarui reacted extremely quickly. She came back to her senses from the trance of her first killing of the sinner, kicked away the corpse that was pierced by the sword, and looked at the snowflakes coming towards her. She rolled down without any hesitation. A knight who wanted to launch a sneak attack from behind was hit by the snow, causing his vision to be obstructed and a sense of fear appeared.
The giant sword split the snowflakes with a whistling sound and accompanied by a cold wind, and also cut the bandit knight behind the snowflakes into two halves.
When Vanilari saw this scene and looked at Norli's dashing figure, an inexplicable fire and admiration slowly grew in his heart. He rushed towards the enemy with his hand holding the long sword tightly.
The maid corps' terrifying fighting power immediately killed the enemy without leaving a single piece of armor. The impact of being trapped from both sides directly destroyed the will to resist of some of the enemy troops, and they dropped their weapons and prepared to surrender without saying a word.
However, the chaos on the battlefield caused those who laid down their weapons to suffer the wrath of their own side. Some of the enemy soldiers who were closest to them and had not yet lost their will to fight killed their surrendered comrades, but this was ultimately unnecessary.
The maid group cooperated very well with Carlo and others, killing the enemy until only 1/3 of the troops were left. The terrifying encirclement directly destroyed the enemy's morale, and finally they could only drop their weapons, hide their heads and surrender.
The battle was over in less than 30 minutes, and the tied up prisoners were taken to the prison in the city, waiting to be questioned and interrogated for intelligence.
Inside the manor, No. 1 Ye Li looked at the young man and the Wind Elf lying in front of him with dimples, and said helplessly:
"Hey, you two, drinking is fine, but why are you lying down to sleep? Are you afraid that I won't be able to find you?"
