Chapter 414: Chapter 91: Double Crazy Battle_1

Although Ardu felt great in the air, the old boss was nevertheless sweating bullets for them.

Newton’s giant birds fly like bats, making use of air currents to glide effortlessly. Fast flight has never been their forte. Long before the battle, Liu Zhenhan, with the help of Gortani, the Sky Authority, had compiled a comprehensive statistical data table on the flight speed of Newton’s giant birds.

The average speed of a Newton giant bird carrying Musketeer cavalry is about fifteen miles per hour, and it won’t exceed twenty miles per hour at its maximum speed. According to Liu Zhenhan’s visual estimation today, the human falcon knight’s speed would not be less than twenty-five miles per hour. After converting the unit of measurement, the falcon knight’s hourly flight speed has reached one hundred and sixty miles, which is nearly seventy miles faster than the speed of Newton’s air cavalry.

Each flap of the Newton giant bird’s flesh wings seemed leisure leisurely and unhurried, giving off a gentlemanly vibe. But this sort of gentility was something that Liu would rather do without.

Normally, they seemed quite fast, gliding through the sky, much faster than walking or running on the ground. But today, when the real battle had begun, and with the speed of the falcon as a reference, the Newton giant bird seemed to show signs of age.

Based on the flight speed of the Newton Cavalry, the riders of Fairencui would hardly be able to catch up with the aerial scouts of any human nation. As for the strategic goal that the lord is always clamoring about--to confront the Dragon Clan--well, that’s just nonsense.

To prevent any accidents, Guoguo was ready to summon "Yi Tiao", the wave sand crane, to aid in the battle. This trick was originally intended to deal with Dorott, the second prince, but Liu would absolutely not allow any slips in his strength.

Even Gortani, under Daisy’s command, quickly reached the top of the slope in preparation for the battle, just in case.

Gortani couldn’t help but mention how Lord Mourinho’s griffin air cavalry flew swiftly and sighingly said that Liu shouldn’t have chosen Newton’s giant birds. Instead, he should have captured Gryphons or other fierce birds like the Royal Tailed Eagle to serve as the aerial war mounts of Fairencui.

Liu Zhenhan, annoyed by her words, responded, "Don’t I know how fierce the Gryphon cavalry is? And the Royal Tailed Eagle? Which of these flying magical beasts is easy to deal with? Which one is as easy to tame as the Newton giant bird? Which one can so quickly build up combat power?"

Luckily, aerial combat on the Aegean continent has never been about speed. The three Falcon Knights, due to their somewhat foolish chivalrous spirit, and the Newton aerial cavalry, relying on sheer numbers and firepower superiority, soon turned the tide of the battle. Before the Swan female knight could finish her criticism, the three falcon knights had already been cleanly dispatched.

This situation indeed allowed the lord to save face and breathe a sigh of relief.

Upon seeing the Newton giant bird fully spread its meat wings and begin to glide and dive, Gortani’s boastful habits came out again. She did not stop talking about how the Harpy used to be able to dive at one hundred miles per hour and that the javelins thrown with the power of the dive could pierce two pieces of heavy infantry, annoying Liu Zhenhan.

The cavalry of the two combined forces of the Tornado Mercenary Group wasn’t easy to deal with either. These experienced mercenaries were always on high alert. Ever since the aerial battle started, the two combined forces’ light cavalry resumed their combat state, and the four squads of bow cavalry had also prepared for battle. Upon seeing the Beamon air cavalry’s attack, all the bow cavalry, under the command of the combined forces leader, drew their bows neatly towards the direction of the Newton giant bird, with cold, hostile flashes focusing into the sky.

The Berserkers of Tel Aviv also removed the bear skin they had been wearing, displaying their steel-like muscles, and gave a wild battle cry to the Beamon air cavalry in the sky. The short-handle flying axe was also in their hands.

Although they didn’t know why those three Falcon Knights were shot down so quickly, the human mercenaries didn’t really consider this group of Beamon air cavalry too seriously. The primary task of the aerial cavalry is indeed reconnaissance, and they might be able to stir things up in a chaotic battle, but in an open confrontation like this, once the air cavalry dives to a certain degree and loses the height advantage, they are nothing more than live targets in the eyes of the archers.

The Newton air cavalry, strictly trained by Lord Mourinho, were no fools. The Musketeers did not have the courage to lower their height to one or two hundred yards to fight close-quarters combat with human archers using the giant moose horn slingshot. Their main task was to bomb!

When the Newton giant bird glided to quite a distance away from the human mercenaries, Ardu took the lead. He picked up a "double-powder gourd" from the big bamboo basket filled with green leaves and dropped it, then quickly pulled up along a slope. The Beamon air cavalry following him did the same, one after another dropping "double-powder gourds", turning their flight trajectory into a rainbow bridge and quickly inserting into the high sky.

The "double-powder gourds" dropped by these Beamon air cavalry, with their red-hot bodies looking like fat dolphins, had a bamboo tail with twisting bamboo leaves, and a bamboo whistle inlaid on it. With a deafening sharp whistle, they fell in an elegant parabolic curve from the sky, directly heading towards the Berserkers of Tel Aviv on the outermost part of the human mercenaries.

The Musketeer race was indeed born to be sharpshooters. The lord was amazed by their ability to lead targets and the sharpness of their eyes. Of the forty "double-powder gourds", though a good half of them went astray, the rest basically hit their targets, a group of two thousand five hundred cavalry gathering together made for a very conspicuous target indeed.
