Chapter 778: Section 528: Bullets Are the Best Gift (4)_2
This is good, at least after this operation, the logistics team won’t have to judge whether these clothes are still fit for use.
After all this, an alarm came from Salis that about two kilometers to the south, a squad of cavalry was approaching, and Salis confirmed they were all armored. Considering this was a Chaos-occupied area, Malin immediately began to retreat—the Northern Kingdom’s military had not notified Malin of any cavalry movements, so this cavalry could only be Nagoth’s corrupted knights.
This was a genuine troop of Chaos warriors, far stronger than the so-called cavalry that Malin had dispersed at a camp a few days ago, and stronger than the so-called warrior troop that had just been killed once.
Crossing the ruins and climbing over mounds, everyone mounted their motorbikes, and Salis, who was circling the skies above Malin, had already spotted the knights. Their vanguard had entered the village and revealed their true faces in the light of the fires—indeed, they were corrupted knights.
They did not approach the plaza—the area around the plaza had been thoroughly purified, and the power of the divine could ignite any unwelcome filth at any time.
When the knights turned their gaze toward the North, Malin ordered the convoy to start and immediately retreated northward—don’t try to outlast the corrupted knights, as mechanical vehicles can break down, but they don’t get the chance to tire to death.
Before long, Malin heard the sound of hooves coming from behind—snowmobiles were not known for their speed. They were used to replace sled dogs, as dogs run slower and can’t sustain running for several hours or even over ten hours.
Nagoth’s knights did not have any of the weaknesses of human knights and their warhorses. In the Great Wilderness of the South, they might have no way to deal with the Knights of Justice, but here, their speed allowed them to catch up to the convoy.
"We’ve got company! Jason! You drive!" Malin turned around after speaking, and a young shoot of the World Tree transformed into a magic wand in his hand.
