From Skaven to God-King of War - #209 - Chapter 208, the real elite of the rat people

The humble people who made up the vast majority of the city stood up and blocked the solemn temple.

It’s just that the temple guards, the Ratman Priests and the Great Claw Priests, have all fallen, so what’s the point of their coming forward.

Shaking and fear are unavoidable. Many rat people chose to escape, but more of them stood here.

This is why those grassland demigods were surprised.

The temple guards are qualified and should stand up, because this is their duty. The rat priests and the big claw priests cannot escape, because they are Du Yuan’s priests.

And why do you humble guys stand up? Is it really because of your faith?

Such piety is rare to see, but why does it appear among such despicable and twisted ratmen.

The sacrifice of the humble is meaningless. Even if the reason is legitimate and noble, for faith, it is still too weak and not even qualified to become currency.

The echoing piercing bells stopped, and the centaur knights started the massacre indifferently. This group of humble guys were far less tenacious than the temple guards, and they began to cry out to the gods in horror as they died.

“Great god? Great god!”

They were shaken and wanted to flee, but the scene was too chaotic, and there were also many ratmen who were ready to truly sacrifice their lives for the gods. In the rush, it was an effortless killing.

Not long after, the last rat man blocking the temple fell down, his eyes widened, and he looked at the sky unwillingly.

The city was quiet, and there was no more rustling sound.

The commander of the centaur knights passed by the centaur knights and came to this solemn temple built by the rat men.

This solemn temple has a sense of refinement that is incompatible with the city.

Throwing the torch in his hand, it was blocked by the bloody aura wrapped around the temple. The commander of the Centaur Knights began to call his gods. The roaring wind that appeared when the city wall collapsed appeared again, and the gathering storm struck towards the temple in front of him. .

It’s just that this violent wind can’t even shake the weak layer of bloody aura on the temple.

The centaur knights were a little more commotion.

The demigod who witnessed this scene in the sky was also anxious. He opened his mouth and breathed out a wisp of wind. The centaur commander summoned the wind again, and the wind became stronger. The violent wind blew towards the temple but still did not shake it. A solemn temple.

A burst of crazy laughter loomed in the wind, but it was a rat priest. The surviving rat priest still had an arrow stuck in his chest. He survived and climbed to the top of the temple. Here, an exquisite The big bell fell.

The blood-colored light protected this temple, and also protected the rat-man priest, shaking the sacred bell with that crazy laughter.

At this moment, the face of the centaur god turned completely dark, and he couldn’t care too much. The wind became stronger. Finally, it overcame the blood wrapped around the solemn temple. The harsh ringing of the bells did not stop, crazy. The laughter did not stop.

Until the violent wind destroyed everything.

Above the sky, the centaur god breathed a sigh of relief, but just when he raised his head, he met Du Yuan’s cold and dangerous gaze head on.

Just by being watched, he felt the danger, and subconsciously aroused his own authority and instinctive defense.

At this moment, Du Yuan smiled. For the first time, he showed other expressions in front of the grassland gods in front of him. Sarcastic ridicule, or mocking sarcasm, it was all right, not only towards the gods of the centaur clan, but also It is towards all the gods gathered in front of you.

This time the temptation failed, and there probably won’t be another time.

The centaur gods did not blow out the hazy light on Du Yuan’s temple. The rat people’s piety exceeded their imagination. Du Yuan was stronger than they imagined, and there was no flaw. Even if they had the advantage, they were still the cruel ones. The war is about to advance. When the Ratmen are retreating steadily and their devout faith begins to waver, only then will they finally fight.

The centaur knights left the city, leaving behind a ruins and flames. Some surviving ratmen emerged from the ruins. After the centaurs left, they panicked and feared in front of the temple that had been reduced to ruins. Wander.

But nothing can be done, the flames will engulf everything, and these surviving ratmen will not have a good ending.

A group of pious fellows and an old rat-man were thoroughly outraged.

The white rat left the barren mountains, the white rat left the underground rat city that had been entrenched for a long time, and he would come to the vast grassland in person.

He did not lead a large team, only a few temple guards and some rat-man priests followed him. It was not a large team, but it was enough to cause a storm in the rat-man kingdom.

Outside Prairie City, in the palace of the great god, the leader of the temple guards sitting in the secret stone chamber put on a helmet. The temple guards would never allow any overstep of the sacred temple, if the overstep has been It happens, so be prepared.

The most brutal and crazy revenge is about to come.

The temple guards stationed in Prairie City started to move. As the most elite force in the Ratman Kingdom, the temple guards were not limited to infantry and cavalry. Since the giant rats appeared in the Ratman Kingdom, riding Giant rats and riding combat have become compulsory courses for every temple guard.

Five thousand temple guards rode giant rats and left the temple outside Prairie City.

Along the way, temple guards continued to rush out from rat cities and merged into the large army of temple guards running wildly on the grassland.

This is a divine revenge, and an undying grudge has been sealed.

In the middle of the Four Seasons Ranch, the temple guards caught up with the running centaur knights. The number of the temple guards was at an absolute disadvantage.

Even if he deliberately steps onto the stage and continuously invests his power in this grassland, the birth of every qualified temple guard is not easy.

The total number of rat-man temple guards on this vast grassland is only 20,000, which is not even comparable to the slightly larger rat-man mercenary group.

But the 20,000 temple guards are already a force that cannot be ignored on this grassland.

The temple guards are able to have such a high status with such a small number, not because of anything else, but because of a simple reason. They are very good at fighting, very good at fighting.

The flag was set up, it was a blood-colored flag with golden lines on it.

There was no need for pre-war mobilization, or in other words, pre-war mobilization had already been done. After learning that the temple of the god had been desecrated, the temple guards naturally entered a state of rage.

It only took them one day to find this centaur knight wandering in the Four Seasons Ranch.

In just one day, half of the temple guards on this vast grassland spontaneously joined the team starting from Prairie City, and came in front of these blasphemers in a non-stop rush.

After running wildly all day and night, there was not much fatigue on the faces of these temple guards, but only the violence projected in the scarlet eyes.

Order was still maintained, even in the surging violence, forming a neat queue and gathering behind the figure holding the flag.

The number of centaur knights is ten times that of the temple guards, a huge cavalry of 100,000 people. This is the confidence they have to cross half of the grassland and destroy each rat city.

But obviously, this number is not enough to make the temple guards retreat, and the centaur knight is also not ready to give in.

This was the second time they encountered the rat cavalry, and they were deeply impressed by the rat knights and rat running knights who fought with them head-on in bloody battles on the first day of the war.

But it’s just a deep impression. If their isolated team wants to wreak havoc on the enemy’s rear, they must have a speed advantage. And the easiest way to maintain the speed advantage is to catch up with the enemy. All his own strength was eaten up.

The centaur commander didn’t think he would lose.

Holding the flag high, both sides launched a charge at the same moment.

Taking off the longbow on his back, a hail of arrows was thrown by the centaur knights. If the fierce knights were to face this hail of arrows, then those dumb guys would probably choose not to do anything and rely on their armor. Come and resist.

But this plays into the heart of the centaur knights. The centaurs use not the short bows used by most grassland races, but actual long bows.

The short bow is indeed light and flexible, but the arrows fired are far from lethal, and are simply not enough to penetrate the full body armor worn by the ferocious knight.

The longbow is different, with a larger poundage, a longer range, and its unique armor-piercing arrows, which can completely defeat the full-body armor equipped by the rat people.

The destroyed Dire Knights suffered a big loss from the rain of arrows thrown by this group of centaur knights. Even though the rat people’s industry was no longer a weakness, Rat War did not save on the full-body armor provided to the Dire Knights, but a round of arrow rain Coming down, a large number of ferocious knights were still penetrated by arrows and fell from the ferocious giant rats.

At this time, the targeted arrow rain was once again thrown out by the centaur knights, but the effect was not as good as when dealing with the fierce knights.

The violent charge did not disrupt the formation of the temple guards. Dazzling silver shields were raised above their heads. Most of the falling arrows were blocked by the silver shields.

Even if the falling arrows avoided the shield raised above his head at a tricky angle, they still couldn’t cause any effective damage.

Because of a very simple reason.

The armor-piercing arrows that could easily pierce the dark armor worn by the ferocious knight were unable to deal with these silver armors that looked much thinner and were engraved with exquisite patterns.

The equipment on the temple guards is much better than the equipment on the fierce knights.

The temple guards are also far wealthier than Rat War.
