Episode
65 .
Commander of the 1st Battalion of the Heavy Cavalry Regiment, Gafeld von Shaly, opened the gates of the wall and crossed the gorge.
Two thousand cavalry followed him.
As soon as they stepped on the ice cap, they completely cut the bridge. Because the legs shouldn’t be used by the demi-humans.
Garfeld immediately led the cavalry and moved to a place far away from the Heilang raid.
It was to fulfill Aiden’s orders.
The duty given by the regimental commander to the cavalry was charging. It was an instruction to strike the beast’s side and take away its rushing power.
The premise was the gathering of all demi-humans. Reality came, and Garfeld had to comply.
Taking advantage of the excitement of the entire unit, he slipped through the gate.
Garfeld turned his horse’s head and looked at the cavalry.
Under the night sky, the best riders covered the snowfield. Nine companies formed a wedge of 200 men each.
The key to the wedge formation was to break the opponent’s line and then leave the battlefield, which required immediate changes of direction and course.
Therefore, the commanders were at the head of each column.
said the adjutant.
“Commander, there is less than an hour left.”
Garfeld nodded.
At first glance, he seemed calm, but he was also nervous like the soldiers.
The howling of wolves, the roar of tigers and lions, and the countless howls of excitement.
These voices of beasts could not help but be afraid of anyone, as they elicited an instinctive fear of predators.
The sound is getting closer and closer.
The horses were frightened and trembled. The breath he exhaled soaked in moonlight and colored his son-in-law white.
The troopers also swallowed dry saliva. Despite the bone-chilling cold wave, cold sweat ran down his back.
I wanted to run away right away, but no one did.
I knew very well what would happen if the North was breached. Parents and siblings left behind will also be trampled on.
Garfeld rode his horse slowly through the ranks.
There was a need to relieve tension and boost morale.
“The hero said that you are the protagonists of history. don’t be scared, don’t be discouraged Do you want future generations to remember you?”
The troopers swallowed their fear and answered loudly.
“““I want it!”””
Garfeld nodded and went on again.
“Do you want the Bible to record bravery?”
“““I want it!”””
A high-pitched voice roared in the north wind.
“What are you guys!”
The riders slammed down their jousting spears in unison.
““ “We are the spears of the empire! It is the hoof that tramples the enemies of the gods! We are the Bacheksar Heavy Cavalry Corps!”””
The heat exhaled by the riders heated up the winter.
The cry of the beast arrived.
Garfeld lowered his visor.
Crunching, the cavalry also lowered their visors in unison.
Wedge love! A radiance flew through the atmosphere. Gargantua. The mold that sacrificed God was nailed far away, in the middle of the snowy field.
The battalion commander shouted loudly.
“You protagonists of history! Let’s trample the beasts and dye the snowfield red!”
“““Waaa!”””
Two thousand jousting spears looked straight ahead at the same time.
The horse started to rise.
The earth shook slowly, and the sound of hooves dipping into the snow closed the gap.
Soon, the ground roared and vibrated.
Shouts and heat mingled together and cut through the air.
Black dots are visible. Those who covered the snowfield in pitch black were beasts.
they get bigger
A halo exploded at the head of the brutes. It was Iden.
The beasts that had been locked in the darkness appeared.
Dripping saliva, gleaming fangs, red eyes, sharp claws, bulging muscles, and soaring horns.
All kinds of beasts were running towards Gargantua.
To retrieve God’s head.
Those who howled with hatred were right in front of them.
At the moment of the clash, Garfeld burst into a shout.
“Trouble-!”
“““Waaa!”””
With a noise that turned the world upside down, the heavy cavalry clashed with the beasts.

Beyond the gorge, a huge spear flew into the snow field where the Ice Age War began.
There were four heads stuck in, but the soldiers who were put into the barrier didn’t know what they were.
However, Grand Marshal Landalen of the Demonic Command Army knew about it.
At the moment when his expression was stained with astonishment, kwaaang-! A roar came from the front.
All eyes on the wall were looking at the snowfield at once.
In the distance, heavy cavalry sweeping through the black dots.
The elite riders charged the sides of the beasts and trampled them.
The speed of the demi-humans noticeably decreased.
The cavalry left the battlefield and began to move towards the left wall.
The beasts did not pursue them. The only concern is God’s head. As the black dots picked up speed again, the commander shouted loudly.
“Get ready!”
Landaren’s model soared into the night sky.
Blue magic power flashed in the air. The commander drew a small magic circle with his index finger.
It immediately began to swell, and eventually expanded to a size that completely covered the son-in-law.
As the demonic forces chanted the spell right away, the top of the barrier was covered with various magical powers.
Archers also carried bows.
Landaren took one look down and chanted in a loud voice.
“Paydnah, great sage of Vacheksar, scribe of the heavens, allow the beast to be slaughtered!”
The moment the huge magic circle emitted a dazzling glow, low-level magic flew into the calculation formula.
The same goes for archers. Their arrowheads did not point towards the beasts, but towards the magic circle.
Tier 1 and 2 magic and normal arrows.
The insignificant force passed the calculation formula while drawing a parabola.
I couldn’t say it was insignificant anymore.
Fireballs became meteorites, thunderbolts became lightning strikes, waves became gravity, and arrows became siege crossbows, embroidering the dark night sky.
From noble mtl dot com
The far-out power tore through the air and began to fall to the ground.
The beasts watched the coming calamity.
I couldn’t avoid it.
The moment the explosion hit the ground, the snowfield was no longer pure.
The explosion that engulfed the son-in-law blazed up again in a red-hot column of fire that swept everywhere.
The remains of animals stained the pristine snowfield black and red, and the melted snow burst the fountains.
Of the things that came into view, there were no living creatures standing on two legs.
Beyond one, the dots were still running.
Landaren’s energy is three times forward. During that opportunity, we had to do as much damage as possible and retreat.
Since they buried magic in the canyon, they should be able to slaughter quite a lot of beasts.
Landaren immediately began chanting.

After escaping from the pursuit of the beasts, Iden was heading towards the barrier on the left.
The Heavy Cavalry Regiment followed behind them.
“Regimental commander!”
Garfeld immediately rode the horse and ran alongside Iden.
With his visor up, his expression was full of awe, respect, and joy.
Aiden looked at him.
“You performed perfectly. Good job.”
Gafeld said as calmly as possible.
“I just did my duty.”
“Okay, who stitched the most?”
From behind, a young soldier shouted loudly.
“1st Battalion 2nd Company, 10th Captain Goyard. I got six!”
Flesh and hide clung to his jousting spear like rags.
Aiden put on a satisfied expression.
“When the sanctuary is completed, move in and take charge of the cavalry team. You can bring your family.”
Goyard, the leader of the 10th, was hardened by the unexpected reward.
All citizens of the empire wanted to move to the sanctuary of heroes, and to him, as a commoner, the cavalry leader was a distant position.
Voices full of envy flew in from here and there.
“Go, thank you!”
Aiden nodded and turned to the gate on the left side of the barrier.
When Shiron whistled, the castle gate rattled open.
Executioners jumped out and dropped the bridge connecting the gorge and the barrier.
I immediately crossed the bridge and entered the northern part of the empire.
About 1 km away, a second line of defense had been established.
There was no barrier to protect humanity, but 30,000 heavy spearmen were concentrated in each unit and lined up in a line. The barbed wire fence and fortifications surrounding it also replaced the defense line.
Troops lined up to the left and right of the horizon. The power that had been subdivided was gathering one after another.
As Iden approached the camp, cheers erupted from everywhere.
His achievements would have saved the lives of tens, or perhaps hundreds of thousands, of the Empire’s people.
The soldiers who left their families behind in the nearby territory cried out louder for Iden.
The entire cavalry followed behind Aiden with proud faces.
Aiden immediately squeezed through the battle lines and headed for the command barracks.
There was no time to respond to the soldiers.
As soon as the tent was pulled up, the generals all stood up and paid their respects.
Ibischuler, the commander of the Daesung Electric Division, strode towards Aiden and bowed his head.
“I’ll give you an apology. Please forgive my earlier rudeness.”
Aiden shook his head.
“Don’t worry. I don’t keep it in my mind. More than that, there are urgent things to do.”
Ibischuler actually had a lot of things he wanted to ask, but he buried them for now.
Iden approached the tactical map and focused the soldiers’ attention.
“Let me explain briefly. I killed the spirit creatures of the beasts.”
Everyone doubted their ears. However, Iden continued calmly.
“Except for the canids, all beasts will target me.”
It was natural. It was not enough to kill the spirit creature, and even scorned it, so the anger of the beasts towards Aiden could not even be explained.
“Also, the dogs will still try to kill the old swordsman.”
Among the spirit creatures killed by Aiden, there was no nine-tailed fox served by the dog. Their target was still Gielan.
The highest rank of the Ascendant’s Order, Crown raised the corner of his mouth.
“I’ll have to put on a dustproof.”
Iden nodded and pointed to the map.
“It would be more efficient to spread the battle lines around me and the swordsman elder, and then narrow the encirclement and subdue them at once when the beasts attack.”
Aiden’s area of expertise was not the arrangement of troops or the detailed formation of the formation.
The sauce was thrown away, so the rest was their role.
The remaining time until the barrier is breached is two or three hours at most. In the meantime, I couldn’t redeploy all the troops, but I had to have assortment as much as possible.
Aiden opened his mouth.
“I will explain later how the spirit creature was killed. Please focus on what is right in front of you.”
They, too, were human beings.
The discussion started to come and go, and Iden left the barracks.
I climbed back to Petra and looked at the wall.
Among the cries of countless beasts, a howl with a clearer presence was heard.
A descendant of the monster that swallowed the moon. It was the voice of the king of beasts.
Aiden clenched his fists.
The Fenrir route is the tomb of users, and it was one of the biggest reasons why people reset the game.
However, there was no redo button for Aiden. When you die, that’s it. Because this is the absolute reality.
Aiden swallowed his resolve and listened to the sound.
From quite a distance, a chill was approaching that would overshadow even the northern winter.
King Baeksu was relaxed, but humans were not.
The closer the cool voice came, the more the soldiers’ expressions turned white.
Aiden opened the status window.
It was worth it.
