Although Goshawk intended to kill the Paladin, he did not stop the Orc army.
The rest of the Beastmen continued to drink nectar.
Only Goshawk was riding on his warhorse, leading a small number of Beastmen and the Centaur Warrior to ambush the Paladin.
Soon, they found a relatively steep location suitable for an ambush.
Paladins were scouts themselves, so as long as they found a position, the ambush would definitely succeed.
To some extent, the Holy Griffin Empire had only sent five Holy Knights, which was already a form of contempt for the orcs.
The Centaurs immediately hid behind the rocky hills on both sides and waited quietly.
Goshawk, Groot, Colhan, and the other elites were hiding behind the hill.
In this war, they were not the main force.
It was worth mentioning that Tarseck wasn't with Goshawk.
His body was too huge. It was too difficult for ordinary warhorses to carry him.
Goshawk didn't plan to stay here to snipe the enemy, so he didn't need him to stay by his side.
"He's here!"
Clements looked into the distance. He could feel the earth shaking on his horse's hooves, and this shaking belonged to his warhorse.
With a few hand gestures, the surrounding centaurs immediately spread out.
It could be seen that Clements still had a strong control over his army.
At this moment, Goshawk also saw the Paladins charging over.
These paladins were too gorgeous. They were dressed in golden armor and held a very long medieval spear in their hands. There was a red ribbon embroidered with a griffin tied to the tip of the spear, and they held a knight's shield in their other hand.
His armor was also branded with the pattern of a griffin, and his helmet had a pair of golden wings. The cape on his back swayed rapidly with the galloping of the warhorse.
What was even more shocking was that even the paladins 'warhorses were armored!
The army of the Holy Griffin Empire was well-equipped.
The equipment of the sentries and crossbowmen amazed him.
The Paladin in front of him was armed to the teeth.
When he arrived, the Holy Knight seemed to have realized something and stopped.
Immediately, a Paladin left the group and quickly moved forward.
The rest of the Holy Knights were on alert. They raised their shields and looked around solemnly.
"Did they discover an ambush?"
Goshawk was stunned when he saw the Paladin's actions.
He thought that their ambush had been discovered, but from the Paladin's reaction, he knew that the Paladin had not discovered them.
This should be their warning.
Paladins might look like they underestimated their enemies, but they had undergone a lot of training. They were like emotionless battle weapons.
No matter what kind of enemy they faced, they would never lose their vigilance.
He looked over again. Clements had already nocked an arrow.
The longbow in his hand was a longbow with magic patterns that could increase the power of the bow.
It was also provided by the wealthy merchants to Goshawk, and he gave it to Clements.
When Clements pulled the 1.8-meter-long bow to the full moon, the bow was immediately surrounded by a magical aura. The lines on the bow were shining.
Not only Clements, but the thirty Centaurs around him also nocked their arrows.
Just as the paladin was about to take another step forward, Clements 'eyes flashed, and a sharp arrow immediately whistled out.
Weng!
The arrow whistled through the air as it flew towards the Paladin.
The paladin instantly sensed the threat. He raised his shield and began to dodge.
He reacted quickly, but the arrow was even faster.
This special arrow immediately hit his right shoulder armor and sank into it.
Logically speaking, Clements 'attack could easily penetrate the rock, but it couldn't penetrate the body of the Holy Knight.
This could only mean that the Holy Knight's defense was too strong.
While Clements was attacking, the Centaurs in the other directions also attacked.
Sharp arrows flew towards the Paladin.
In the blink of an eye, the Paladin was hit by six or seven arrows.
The other four Holy Knights were also attacked by the Centaur, but they immediately went into a state of alert after the Holy Knight was attacked first.
Many of the arrows that were aimed at them were blocked.
This kind of reaction speed was definitely an elite who had experienced hundreds of battles!
"Retreat!"
The Paladins had no intention of fighting the Centaurs. They immediately turned their reins and planned to retreat.
They had already been ambushed and injured. If they continued to fight, it would be disadvantageous for them.
Moreover, they were only here to investigate the traces of the orcs and did not need to fight them.
While they were retreating, Clements had already rushed towards them. His four hooves were galloping rapidly, and he kept drawing his bow and nocking arrows. One after another, extremely sharp arrows flew towards the Paladin.
Centaurs were natural cavalry.
Their upper bodies were in the shape of humans, while their lower bodies were in the shape of warhorses. This natural body structure allowed them to launch extremely fierce attacks when they were galloping at high speed.
Whether it was riding or slashing, Centaurs had a natural advantage.
Moreover, they didn't need to think about riding, because they were mounts themselves!
These centaurs were running at high speed, moving around and blocking the path around the paladin while launching attacks non-stop.
Even though the Holy Knights were constantly dodging and defending, they were unable to dodge the attacks coming from all directions.
As they were repelling the arrows, they were immediately hit by arrows.
With the Centaurs 'strong arms, the arrows they shot were able to penetrate the heavy armor. They also started to attack the warhorses, which were pierced by arrows.
Fresh blood kept oozing out of the paladin's body.
But even so, none of these Holy Knights had fallen. From this, it could be seen how amazing their physiques were.
Of course, even though none of the Holy Knights had died, Goshawk knew that the battle was over.
The winner was the Centaur!
The Paladins had already begun to retreat and escape. They were able to take care of a certain amount of defense while retreating and escaping. They were indeed very outstanding.
Ordinary archers would not be able to catch up to them.
However, the centaurs were faster than them!
No matter how skilled the Paladins were in riding, they couldn't compare to these Centaurs who were truly one with their horses!
The Centaurs were attacking as they chased.
These Paladins could only passively take the attacks without any resistance!
"Whoosh!"
Another arrow hit the Holy Knight's cape from behind. The latter was sent flying from his warhorse and fell to the ground. No one knew if he was dead or alive.
