Bab 1097: Pursuit and Traps (Part 1)

The 12 powerful holy masters wore calm expressions. All the 160 gold-armored warriors rode level four horses. The warhorses were clad in golden armor from top to bottom.

At level three, warhorses were deemed fit enough to follow their masters into battle without fear of arrows. When clad in armor, the horses were strong enough to withstand attacks from mid-level human swordmasters. 

Furthermore, mid-level swordmasters lacked the endurance of the magic beast warhorses, which were able to scale mountains like they were running on flatlands. 

Warhorses originated from another plane, which were captured by humans and bred with many types of horses. Not only were they strong, the difference in their guts and the guts of common horses was like heaven and earth.
