Chapter 340: The Insight of the Holy Grail Knight

"This Grail Knight must have been drunk on the Grail water."

Elector Laukov of Ostland was puzzled, for he did not know much about the human kingdom located to the west of the Grey Mountains.

It is said that Bretonnia was founded by a goddess, though of course this goddess was certainly no match for Sigmar.

It is also said that the goddess floats on the lake, holding a pure gold chalice filled with magical liquid.

Considering that the goddess is floating on the lake and there is no other water source nearby, it is reasonable to infer that the water in the Holy Grail is most likely the lake water under the goddess' feet.

In addition, the goddess was floating on the lake barefoot, and the lake water was no different from foot washing water.

"Why would this Holy Grail Knight come all the way here to exterminate monsters? Is it chivalry? That's the only explanation, but I don't know what reward he wants."

Seeing the puzzlement on the Elector's face, the Holy Grail Knight saw through all his doubts.

"Of course I'm not helping you kill the monsters for free, but the merit of killing the monsters should be credited to this baron."

After saying that, he pointed at Wendlow.

Elector Laukov did not know Windlow, because barons were as common as weeds in the empire.

But he also understood what all this meant.

It must be that the Holy Grail Knight owed someone a favor, so he wanted to repay it, and the military achievement was credited to the baron.

Never mind. As long as the threat is eliminated, it’s okay to give the military merit to an eight-year-old girl.

The lion immediately opened his mouth and said, "You want to know the threat posed by Oster Territory, right? I will tell you everything."

"According to the prediction of the Altdorf Heavenly Mage, the Norse raider chief will bring his people to the northern coast. Although I have asked the people to migrate inland, the Norse people will not vomit themselves to death due to seasickness."

"There is a Minotaur Lord's camp in the north near the central mountain range. Since they haven't built the Ten Thousand Demon Rock yet, I can't call for reinforcements from other provinces, but I do know their exact location."

"There is a group of wood elves in the eastern forest that have been attacking our woodcutters. They may have come from the Griffin Forest in the south. The woodcutters said that some trees have turned into humans. You, you can also go and take a look. That's all."

Elector Laukov gave three tasks at once, no matter which one, it was impossible for the provincial army alone to solve it.

After listening to all the information and taking the map, the Holy Grail Knight thought about it briefly and then accepted the entire task.

"It took about half a month to kill the Norscans, take out the Minotaur, kill the wood elves, and burn a few trees."

Then he took Wendlow, who had not yet recovered his strength, and the two of them walked towards the nearest central mountain range.

Following the instructions on the map, we did see a fairly large beastman village.

This creature is actually similar to a bandit. It will rob passing caravans, massacre, and rape.

At the same time, they were very poor. The Elector could not get any benefits from bringing troops to wipe them out, and he even had to pay pensions to the soldiers who died in the battle.

As long as it doesn't form the scale of Wanmo Rock, we can turn a blind eye to it. The profits that can be obtained from defeating the beastmen are far from enough to subsidize the military expenses, and no one will do business at a loss.

The Holy Grail Knight had amazing eyesight and he could see the Minotaur leader in the village from a long distance away. The monster was three meters tall, full of muscles, and the horns on its head probably weighed more than ten kilograms.

Even if a fully armed knight came, that thing would easily lift him over his head and then tear him in half.

"I'm going to kill that Minotaur leader."

The Holy Grail Knight spoke softly, as if he were a farmer preparing to kill a chicken.

"How do you kill them? It's so far away! And there are at least hundreds of beastmen in the village. It's a problem to rush in. Even if you can kill the Minotaur Lord, how can you get out?"

“No need to go in and kill.”

As the Holy Grail Knight spoke, he silently took off his spear.

He twisted and removed the sharp part at the front of the spear, and then he discovered that his spear was actually hollow, and the back of the spear could also be disassembled.

After a while, the spear was assembled into a long-barreled musket, and a lead bullet wrapped in copper sheets was slowly loaded into the barrel.

Forget about the musket or not. How could he hit the Minotaur Lord in the middle of the village from such a long distance? Besides, the guy kept walking around, a moving target.

"How can we fight it? We are at least 1000 meters away from it."

"Can you calculate the exact distance?"

The Holy Grail Knight didn't care whether the distance was too far or not, he just silently adjusted the accuracy of the long-barreled musket in his hand.

"850 meters, within ten meters."

There is no problem in measuring the distance. People who have been doing business for a long time can judge the distance and weight based on some basic situations.

"Wind direction and speed."

"East, northeast wind, wind speed is almost 0"

These are also basic knowledge. When the Holy Grail Knight asks, Windlow can answer immediately.

Finally, the long-barreled musket was adjusted to suit the wind direction, wind speed and distance. The Holy Grail Knight closed his eyes and offered his final prayer.

"Goddess, please guide my aim."

After the prayer, I lay on the ground with the butt of the gun on my shoulder, opened my eyes, looked at the crosshairs with my right eye, and observed the target with my left eye.

The Holy Grail Knight has the most powerful insight ability and can capture the opponent's changes in movement and action within a breath.

He had already predicted the Minotaur's future direction and had already made preparations in advance.

When the trigger was pressed, the gunpowder burned violently in the barrel, and the lead bullet flew out of the rifled barrel, leaving a white trail in the air.

Fortunately, Windlow covered his ears in advance. The explosion caused by the huge amount of explosives was enough to alert all the birds flying hundreds of meters around.

Just one second later, the Minotaur Lord felt a pain between his eyebrows, and blood mixed with brain matter flowed down his nostrils into his mouth.

He lost consciousness before he could even taste the saltiness. He staggered on the spot and then fell forward to the ground.

The place where the bullet went in was just a tiny opening, but the place where it came out was a dark, fist-sized hole.

The bullet took out all the brains in the cranial cavity and scattered them on the ground, accompanied by the stench of roasting the brains.

Only two eyeballs were left stuck in the eye sockets, which were squeezed out by the impact the moment they fell to the ground. Then the pumping scarlet blood flowed out from the holes, dyeing the entire corpse red.

"Mission completed, waiting to collect the body."

"Collect the corpse?"

Before Windlow could understand what was happening, the entire Beastman village was in chaos. With the death of the Minotaur leader, and the unclear circumstances of his death, all the Beastmen fled to various parts of the forest.

At this time, the Holy Grail Knight had already mounted his horse.

"Let's go, kill the Minotaur Lord and bring some evidence back to your Elector."
