I Want To Be a Nobleman
Chapter 34 The Powerful Centaur
It's been two weeks since we wiped out the swamp and wilderness, and the troops of the Land Reclamation Alliance have finished their rest, and it's time to head east!
The main purpose of this operation is to find out what kind of creatures the aborigines of the eastern land, that is, their enemies, are, how effective they are in combat, and where it is better for them to build their new home.
The secondary purpose is to lay down an outpost to prepare for the subsequent march and strategic deployment of the army.
All the nobles set off together, and almost all the extraordinary knights were also dispatched. The soldiers only brought the elite of the elite. This time, they did not plan to go to war on a large scale, and did not need a large number of ordinary soldiers.
There are a total of 27 nobles, more than 200 extraordinary knights, and 500 elite soldiers, forming an army with a small number, high combat effectiveness, and good mobility.
In addition to himself, Harold and other knights, Marcus and his party also brought Harold's five knight attendants, five elite gladiators under Baldhead, and a dozen guards trained by himself.
The swamp and wilderness have been cleared by nobles such as the Marquis of Prague for several months. All threatening creatures have been slaughtered, and there will be no more threats in a short time.
It took only three days for the reclamation troops to reach the eastern land.
Full of unknowns, novel unexplored areas! Everyone set up a camp together, and then started investigating separately.
Even the Marquis of Prague is only half a rank higher than the other nobles, and no one will obey the other, so each noble will act separately.
Those who voluntarily follow others are welcome. Marcus, who has great ambitions, naturally takes Harold and others to set off alone.
They are located in a place where the land is relatively close to the wilderness, the vegetation is not too lush, and they haven't seen any intelligent creatures for a long time, only some wild animals exist.
But after going deep to the east, they encountered a terrible and powerful enemy, the centaur!
The upper body is a human, the lower body is a bloodthirsty and brutal race of horses, each centaur has a physical quality that far exceeds that of a human, and they are natural cavalry, and their speed is no less than that of human cavalry.
At present, Harold and others have not seen villages or towns. The civilization level of the centaurs is very low, and it is still a primitive society with small tribes as the main body.
Although civilization is backward, the fighting power of centaurs far surpasses that of humans! They are all soldiers, men, women and children are born fighters.
The long-range archery centaur is very accurate, not to mention that it can shoot arrows while moving. There are a lot of kites, and the human cavalry can only be beaten.
The centaur in close combat is even more powerful and has an amazing physique. Counting the human body, it is more than three meters tall and weighs nearly half a ton!
The power of the centaur's first attack was particularly exaggerated. Even a bald head couldn't hold it back. Only Marcus, a descendant of the hero with strong blood, and Harold, who had extraordinary strength, could withstand the centaur's charge head-on.
Fortunately, the centaur tribes that Marcus and others encountered were all small tribes with a small number of people, only twenty or thirty centaur.
The centaurs were bloodthirsty and brutal, and couldn't communicate at all. When they saw Harold and others, they immediately attacked. This time, Marcus proposed to attack the centaur tribe proactively.
A group of people ambushed on a small hill one kilometer away.
I'm going to attract the centaur, you are in ambush here!
The bald head was the best at riding, and offered to be the bait, and Marcus nodded in agreement.
The centaur's body is very strong, but its IQ is really average. Seeing the bald head riding past their house alone, a dozen centaur immediately chased after them.
The bald head immediately rode his horse and fled to the ambush site, waving his weapon halfway to block several arrows aimed at the horse. The centaur's bow and arrow were really accurate!
The distance of just one kilometer is completed in tens of seconds under the horse galloping at full speed.
More than a dozen centaurs discovered Harold and the others in ambush. They did not run away, but rushed over howling. In their view, any race in the entire eastern land was just the prey of centaurs!
Marcus was furious, shouted and threw a blazing fireball at the centaur, bigger than the fireball that Harold had seen Earl Salik throw before!
Harold could only condense a small fireball of 30 centimeters, and it was not that lethal to rough-skinned and thick-skinned creatures like centaurs.
The centaur who hit the fireball was killed immediately, the fire engulfed his body completely, and the charge of the other centaurs was also disrupted.
Harold rushed forward and fought in a mess. The great sword in his hand became a flaming great sword after [flame enchantment]. With his terrifying power, he could easily injure a centaur.
Although the strength of the half-horse is good, but the weapons are simple, and the damage to Harold, who has +40 defense inside and fine steel armor outside, is very low, only 4 or 5 points. Panic.
After learning that civilians can also become heroes and gain blood, Harold's fighting spirit became more and more high. With one sword after another, it seemed that he had inexhaustible strength, and he chopped down all the centaurs surrounding him.
Following Harold, others also stepped forward bravely, especially Marcus, as long as his flaming greatsword swept the centaur, he would instantly kill it, completely crushing the centaur.
The bald head does not have the extraordinary ability of [Flame Enchantment], and still uses an astonishingly heavy double-edged axe, but his skills are even better. He fights completely against the centaur, and does not give the enemy a chance to return the phone.
Under the brave performance of the three of them, the other knights and elite soldiers were also imposing, and their combat power increased greatly.
In the end, the dozen or so centaurs were defeated without any casualties.
The bald head was surprised by Harold's performance. Harold killed four or five centaurs by himself, almost catching up with Marcus.
He felt that Harold's strength had already surpassed him. In just two months, Harold changed from a gladiator who couldn't stop him with one hand to a warrior who was admired by even nobles.
This makes the bald head feel envious and cheered up. He also has orc blood, so it doesn't make sense for Harold to stop here if he can keep getting stronger.
Orcs' physical peak period will last from adulthood to a few months before the end of their lifespan. This is also a powerful capital of orcs. Age will not weaken their combat effectiveness, but will only make them more experienced and better. For rage The mastery of Qi is stronger.
The bald head has orc blood, and even when he is nearly 40 years old, he does not feel his physical strength decline. After accepting the sharing of blood power, he feels that his physical potential can go further.
Good job, keep up the good work, save the next batch of centaurs!
Marcus praised the crowd a few times and hurried to attack the centaur tribe, Marcus was going to catch a few alive.
The centaurs who stayed in the tribe did not expect their companions to be defeated, and Marcus and others who were killed were caught off guard.
Only one centaur broke through the house and escaped, the rest were either killed or captured.
What is surprising is that the centaur can speak a simple lingua franca and can communicate with them normally.
On the way back to the camp, Marcus asked a lot of information, and basically understood the situation of this land.
Centaurs are the absolute masters of this land! Any other races are the prey and slaves of the centaurs, and the small tribe they raided was attached to the Thunder tribe.
The social structure of centaurs is very primitive, with tribes connected by blood. Small tribes only have 20 to 30 people, while large tribes such as the Thunder tribe have nearly 10,000 people.
In this land, a few big tribes like the Thunder tribe rule all the centaurs. They don't have a mature country or alliance system. The small tribes are neither protected by the big tribes nor need to provide anything. land and surrender.
For thousands of years, no foreign enemies have been able to invade this land. The centaurs lived carefree. Only the battles between the same race would make them feel dangerous. The centaurs even repelled the invasion of the orcs!
Centaur, Thunder Tribe, repelled orcs! It's a bit troublesome!
This information made Marcus frown all the time, the land ruled by a single race was far more difficult to conquer than the land with mixed races.
This means that human beings are absolute outsiders in this land, and there is no possibility of cooperating vertically and horizontally. In the worst case, they will be enemies of the centaurs in the entire land!
And the most terrifying news is that the centaur has repelled the orcs! You must know that human beings have always been at the bottom of their fight against orcs, and even the Kingdom of Chiat, where Grand Duke Lance lives, was suppressed and beaten by orcs.
The orcs and humans have fought for more than ten years and occupied a large amount of territory in the Kingdom of Chiat, and Harold's hometown is one of them.
If it wasn't for going back to compete with the green orcs for the holy mountain, the red orcs had mobilized all their strength and had no energy left to attack humans, and the Marquis of Prague wouldn't have had the chance to open up wasteland even if he reached the legendary level.
The orc centaur that humans can't fight back has been repelled, even if there may be other reasons for it, but this is enough to show the strength of the centaur, can they really defeat the centaur?
Back at the camp, many nobles had come back from the investigation, all of them were frowning, probably hit by a centaur.
Marcus led them to easily defeat the centaur mainly because Marcus himself was super strong, and Harold and Baldhead also had the strength no less than ordinary blood nobles.
The fighting power of other nobles is similar to that of the bald head, and the knights and subordinates they lead are also slightly weaker than Marcus's knights and subordinates.
Harold roughly estimated the attributes of the centaur. The strength should be about 15-20, and the agility should be 10-15. Compared with the average human strength and agility of 6 points, the centaur's strength is three times that of humans, and its agility is twice.
The knights of the nobles are generally top-notch fighters. They already have more than 12 points of strength and agility. After the blood power stimulates the potential, their physical attributes will not be weaker than that of a centaur, and they have extraordinary strength. The equipment is also full of centaurs. It is very easy for them to defeat the centaur, but the problem lies in the elite soldiers.
No matter how elite the soldiers led by the nobles were, they could hardly be as powerful as the knight servants under Harold or the elite gladiators under Baldhead.
[Northern Knight Attendant] has strength and agility of 15+ after being upgraded from [New Northern Explorer], and has lv3 and lv4 skills such as [Strike], [Iron Bone], [Weapon Mastery], [Riding], and the combat power is almost equal. A knight who does not use superhuman abilities.
The elite gladiators under the bald head wandered on the edge of life and death all year round, broke through the limit several times, and were very good at fighting large monsters, and could easily deal with centaurs.
But the subordinates of other nobles and Marcus's elite guards are all ordinary humans, no matter how hard they train, they will be suppressed by the centaur in terms of physical attributes.
If there is no strong person to take the lead in destroying the morale of the centaur, it will be difficult to gain the upper hand against the upper centaur. Even if the number of people is equal, even if the equipment is superior, the majority will lose.
A nobleman with seven or eight knights and a dozen elite soldiers was unlucky enough to bump into a group of twenty or thirty centaur tribes hunting collectively.
Marcus did not take Harold and the others out again, but rested in the camp and waited for the Marquis of Prague to come back to discuss countermeasures. The strength of the aborigines exceeded their expectations, and they could no longer fight on their own!
