Lord of Rot

Chapter 470 Is the underground world so dangerous? !

Few people know that Vito, known as the "Scheming Barbarian", used to be just a very ordinary strategist.

Through investigation and research, he broke through the limitations of his bloodline and successfully entered the transcendent world.

His body grew stronger, making people remember his brutality more and forget his tricks.

Vito has a lot to say about the understanding of power. He learned enough knowledge from the prince to understand what the world above is like.

With his outstanding ability and extraordinary identity, Vito established a firm foothold and became the prince's most trusted subordinate, of which he has always been proud.

The journey into the underground world was not smooth. There was light in the sky to guide them, but the visibility was not too high. They held the torch and groped forward, and their sight was firmly limited to a short distance ahead.

The first person to notice something was wrong was not the only transcendent Vito, but the horses under the cavalry's crotches.

The war horse scratched its hooves restlessly and snorted.

The usually well-trained and loyal companion began to circle around uncontrollably.

These guys, even if they encounter a black bear in the mountains or a lion on the grassland, they may not be so anxious.

"There are enemies, sir!"

"Get ready!" Vito was very cautious. He squinted and looked into the distance. The sound of horse hooves in the distance was not hidden, and he rushed towards this direction with a rumble.

The other side also has cavalry!

He knew very well that when he could hear the sound, it was too late to avoid it or take the initiative.

When the group of guys appeared in sight, Vito's expression changed slightly.

They were not cavalry, but monsters whose upper bodies were humans and lower bodies were horses. They held simple bows and arrows or spears, and did not wear any protective gear.

"Line up!" Vito is not good at fighting on horseback. Compared with his efficiency and seriousness in doing things, it is a bit difficult for him to command and kill enemies on the battlefield, but he still knows some basic cavalry combat strategies.

The man-horse monster in front is holding a bow and arrow. It should be a mounted archer. With the flat terrain and close-range heavy cavalry charge, it is obviously more advantageous than the archers, especially when the opponent is not afraid of death and rushes towards them.

There is still a long distance between the two sides, and the cavalry can fully run.

"charge!"

Vito howled.

The horseman drew his strong bow, and the arrow struck a cavalryman, but it only made a dent in the opponent's plate armor and failed to penetrate the armor.

The dense rain of arrows fell with precision and precision, making the armor crackle like falling rain.

But the armor successfully defended against those attacks.

Only a few were unlucky and had arrows penetrated into the gaps in the plate armor, but they only suffered minor injuries.

Taking this opportunity, Vito's heavy cavalry had already charged.

The sound of horse hooves and horse hooves were superimposed, and the whole area seemed to be thundering, rumbling non-stop.

At such a close distance, the two sides rushed towards each other again. It looked like the horsemen opened their arms and actively collided with the spears of the cavalry team.

"what!"

"Err!"

Screams and horse cries came one after another. The two groups of cavalry charging at high speed collided. The horses' hooves flew and a large piece fell down.

The naked charging horsemen met the full-body plate armor, and even the cavalry were wearing armor. Their flesh collided with the iron plate, and they suddenly fell over.

A large number of the centaurs fell down, and several others behind them were tripped by their companions because they did not stop in time.

However, some centaurs still reacted and raised their weapons to slash at the cavalry.

"Array up!" Vito immediately shouted: "Don't be obsessed with fighting!"

In his limited war experience, he saw with his own eyes how terrifying the charging heavy cavalry was. It was not rational to fight with the enemy. He would ride on the horse and then draw his sword to chop the enemy? He didn't think that his cavalry would be better at close combat than those monsters whose bodies were directly attached to the horses.

The biggest advantage over his cavalry is the complete set of equipment, which is absolutely suppressive in terms of equipment!

As long as you can charge, you can tear everything apart!

Being entangled in centaurs is like being stuck in a quagmire.

The cavalry followed every order. They pulled the reins and turned the horses' heads without fighting. The team spread out to avoid the entangled horsemen, and then quickly gathered to form a standard "wedge" charging formation.

The horsemen also got up in panic. Facing the cavalry team that was crushed by equipment and had strict orders, they were like a piece of loose sand.

Some centaurs were unwilling to catch up with their weapons and continue to fight.

"Roar--!!"

A roar came suddenly from afar.

The centaurs leader Baker's expression changed slightly: "No, it's a manticore!"

Although those guys were not very smart, they were not stupid either. Under the strong force of "that lord", they chose to surrender, and there were horse people to help hunt every day. The manticore's life was not very good.

But they also know very well who is easy to bully and who is not.

Like crypt gnomes, they are small, chewy snacks with less meat and more bones. They are okay to eat occasionally.

Ogres and trolls are big, thick-skinned, stupid people, but manticores can't beat them and generally don't provoke them.

There are only horse people, who are obedient and well-behaved and will also deliver food. If you can't catch food, you can even use horse people to satisfy your hunger.

Just now, the centaurs were responsible for herding the manticores. Because they noticed the intruder, they came over to hunt them and send them back to the manticores to eat, or throw them to the ogres.

However, I didn't expect that this defensive battle would encounter a difficult situation.

The manticores, who had been unable to wait for a long time for the centaurs to deliver their meals, rushed over.

10 ferocious lion monsters with bat wings and scorpion tails spread their wings and glided closer, falling to the ground and splashing dust.

The advantage gained by Vito's side just now collapsed instantly as the manticore fell from the sky.

The war horse became more uneasy, and Vito confirmed that what the war horse was afraid of from the beginning was not the centaur monsters, but these more terrifying-looking lions.

"Roar!"

The manticore was very angry. No wonder he didn't get food after waiting for a long time. It turned out that someone was bullying his keeper!

They stretched out their claws tentatively and raised their tails high, like poisonous scorpions ready to attack at any time.

Get closer to the prey little by little, then attack!

As an extraordinary person, Vito felt his skin was cold and his heart was beating uncontrollably. He knew very well that he was in danger.

"Another idiot!"

"You are the stupid one!"

"I'm not talking about you!"

The quarrel came closer with the cumbersome sounds of "boom" and "boom", and Vito's pupils contracted.

They were a group of huge figures with a height of 9 feet. Their skin was rough and their movements were slow. However, when those terrifying manticores saw their figures, they made small movements with their tails between their legs like dogs, allowing Vito to quickly distinguish which one. The strong and the weak.

No less sparse than the manticores, these guys were like high walls, which put great pressure on Vito, but he also breathed a sigh of relief.

Should be able to survive.

"The idiot didn't mean me, hahaha. The idiot said you are an idiot, hahahaha!"

"Fool!"

At the front is a two-headed monster. The head on the left is arguing with the head on the right, and finally they start fighting.

Attacking each other means I punch you in the stomach and you punch me in the stomach.

In the eyes of outsiders, they have one body, two heads, and one belly, so it looks like they are beating themselves in the stomach like a self-abuse.

And every time the fist fell, both heads would feel pain and scream and wail, but they continued to hurt each other endlessly.

"You're an idiot!"

"You are the stupid one!"

Vito became more and more nervous at this time. Unknowingly, his team was surrounded by underground monsters that were several times the number of his own soldiers. Each of them looked fierce. In fact, except for the centaurs, all the others looked fierce. Very difficult to mess with.

Vito doubted whether the soldiers' swords could break the skin if they struck him.

The encirclement is gradually shrinking.

"I think there is some misunderstanding between us!" Vito raised his hands to show that he meant no harm.

Although his soldiers still held their weapons tightly, and all the centaurs who were knocked over were injured.

"I come from the earth and am a subordinate of the local lord Prince Hoffman. I want to meet your leader."

Vito's head turned quickly. A group of monsters with obviously unequal strength and even unequal intelligence levels could stay together in peace and help each other. This only meant that there was someone stronger above them.

The stronger one suppresses all the discordant voices, just like Prince Hoffman. Although Vito feels that this method is not appropriate and will cause a lot of trouble, just like the giant foot that is now riddled with holes, he has to Said this is the most reliable method.

All the sounds suddenly became quiet, and even the two big guys who were arguing with each other obediently shut their mouths.

The manticore even drooped its wings and lay on the ground, not daring to raise its head.

On the contrary, the centaurs raised their heads, feeling quite proud that "there is someone above me."

Do these monsters really understand?

Vito's heart was moved, and he was about to say something more, but he found that the monster team separated automatically, and a humanoid creature wearing armor came over. It was probably a human, because Vito was not sure what the things underground could be.

When he saw the other person for sure, Vito was almost instantly sure that the other person was definitely not an extraordinary person, but a realm above the extraordinary.

After following the prince for so many years, he had seen many similar strong men with his own eyes. It was a kind of leap in life level.

Of course, all the strong men Vito saw were torn to pieces by the prince without exception.

It seems like being able to hold a conversation shouldn't be the worst case scenario.

"Sir, I'm very sorry for intruding into your territory." Vito waved his hand and asked the cavalry to put down their weapons.

There was no chance of winning just now, but the person who appeared now made Vito certain that ten times more cavalry would not be a match for the person in front of him.

However, what Vito didn't expect was that the other party said: "Follow me, I want to see you."

Vito: "!!"

The one who can make the strong obey and surrender must be the stronger one.

Is the underground world so dangerous? !

Although he was very confident that the prince was the strongest, if he could avoid provoking another strong person, he hoped that he could still have a friendly conversation with him.
