The knights in the middle were caught off guard, nearly tripped, while those in the back were still puzzled about what was happening.
"Engaged? What's happening at the front?"
"Master, quickly suppress the enemy's spells, hurry!"
"Save me... save me..."
Count Kazi, protected in the center by the command squad, stood dumbfounded. He, known for his quick wit, surprisingly did not react immediately.
When that iron ball hit the knights, they were almost five hundred paces apart!
But he clearly saw a brave knight, steadfast in his advance, suddenly lifted off the ground, issuing a scream almost like a lady's, then flung backward, rear first.
That was a rare high-tier knight with decreed combat strength. Yet in the blink of an eye, the knight's chest was pierced by a cannonball, blood gushing from the shattered armor, splattering the knights around him.
The iron ball, after piercing through his armor, continued smashing through another knight's thigh before coming to a stop.
