In just thirty seconds, Earl Owen experienced the thrill of falling from "heaven" to "hell".

Gris' unstoppable force made the corners of his mouth turn up, but the appearance of Death Coil made his sneer freeze on his face.

Next to him, Count Durant was already speechless. His troops had been stopped by Knights Wellington and Titus - the soldiers were no match for the two guardian knights. They were crushed in just one encounter.

morale.

The difference in strength is too big. In the melee, the strength of Wellington and Titus is undoubtedly highlighted... In the past, it was not obvious when fighting alone, but in a dense environment with enemies, almost no one can get close within the attack range of the two metal lances.

.

From another angle, these two knights are like two harvesters, marching forward and sweeping across with their lances, completely flying at the touch of a button.

They originally planned to turn around to assist Roddy, but as soon as they turned around, they saw Gris being run over by Roddy's troops, and then they continued to fight with confidence - they were still restrained and basically did not use ruthless actions, and killed a

After knocking out an enemy standing in front of them and sending them flying, the originally weakened knights quickly lost their fighting spirit. Many of them even stopped and were too timid to step forward...

Earl Owen's face was livid, and he was completely panicked - Gris's failure was something he did not expect at all. The fluctuations of "Death Coil" almost made Owen's heart stop. As a puppet, he is extremely sensitive to necromancy, so he is more

I can't figure out why a delicate beauty can cast "Death Coil"!

What's wrong with this world? She was still using the "Sacred Shield" just now!

"Necromancy" and "divine magic" are completely opposite in the magic system. This is something that everyone knows... But what is going on right now?

But what surprised him even more was yet to come - those "Rose Cross" troops that Earl Owen was extremely afraid of were all gathering in front of Rody...

These troops holding the "Rose Cross" flag were different from each other. They seemed to have come from towns across the territory, but they all had a very unified action: they all rushed in front of the figure carrying a short bow.

, then bent down to salute...

"He...who is he?"

Irving and Durant were completely dumbfounded. They had always regarded Soderol as the enemy they wanted to deal with, but they never thought that it was this humble shooter who actually planned and presided over the operation!

Owen immediately realized that his situation was lost, and turned around to retreat. But when he turned his eyes to the forest behind him, he saw a large number of more than 300 Templar Knights coming from Holier City slowly approaching...

Unconsciously, Owen found himself surrounded.

"We still have room for negotiation--"

Roddy's words interrupted Durant's voice. He switched the "title" from "The Last Demon Hunter" to "Captain of the Temple Guard". He looked at the words "Regional-Level Recruitment Successful" and said with a sneer.

: "We don't need any mercy for the traitors who collude with the undead!"

The earl wanted to say something else, but when faced with the oncoming religious knights, his lips trembled and his face turned completely gray...

Earl Owen didn't believe that Rody really dared to kill him, and immediately shouted: "I am a noble Earl, I have the right-"

"I have your ass."

Roddy had no interest in giving this guy a chance to talk nonsense. He waved his scimitar and said, "Kill!"

Such an arrogant acting style is not the norm of a nobleman at all, but because of his cruelty, the surrounding lords who originally stood in the same camp as Owen suddenly broke out in cold sweat...

Only then did they understand that this seemingly inconspicuous little person actually had the power to order all the Templars...

According to the level, this is the energy that only the first level of the Archbishop has.

Earl Durant completely gave up hope and leaned slumped on the saddle - so what about the Earl? The aristocratic system and the sect are completely different things, and these religious lunatics will not give any face at all...

Earl Owen looked blankly at the Templar Knights coming over. His mind could no longer think about everything that had happened - the territory, wealth, women, and the previous desire for revenge. All of these came with the roar.

The sound of horse hooves completely disappeared...

******

November 10th, 588th year of the Elon calendar.

Wounded soldiers were lying in the houses, and hundreds of corpses were dragged outside the town by heavy-footed engineers for burial. The cold weather meant that these corpses would not rot, but there were swarms of ravens hovering in the sky.

Team, the depressed atmosphere seems to have caused the temperature to drop a lot.

There are not many traces of fighting in Jige Town. Some of the smashed shop doors have been simply repaired at this time. The atmosphere on the streets is still solemn. Because there is no announcement and no nobles come forward, people are still trembling.

Going out, it is impossible to confirm whether a similar war will happen again.

In the manor left by Ansardin, Roddy, who had not slept all night, was still writing letters with strength. After the battle, he ordered all his extremely tired men to rest. In the middle of the night, he and Soderol

After discussing future development issues, he was the only one left in the study.

Seeing that it was already dark outside the window, Rody stretched out his hand to extinguish the wick. His fingertips had almost no feeling due to the numbness after a long battle. He rubbed his eyes and glanced at the paperweight-like Snapping Turtle Nokia on the table.

He exhaled tiredly, then picked up a few pieces of firewood and threw them into the fireplace, staring at the dancing fire in a daze.

After the war, it should have been a moment of harvest, but Roddy didn't feel much excitement - this battle was completely on the edge of "annihilation". If the other forces hadn't made adjustments, the area outside would have been...

I'm afraid the person buried in the mass graves is me...

When he was still frightened and fearful, Rody always felt a deep powerlessness: a few nobles and a few broken knights could almost surround him to death, if it weren't for Ansadin's potion and Akasha

Without support, it is impossible for this team to maintain zero deaths until now.

"It still takes time... but time is really running out."

With a sigh, Rody looked at yesterday's battle and summed up the gains and losses——

This battle caused Earl Owen to die directly... Not only him, but also the two puppet barons were trampled to pieces, and even the corpses could not be put together. Their deaths also meant that the most important people in the Everta territory

All the "puppets" have been removed by Rody.

Count Durant is not dead. This is the result of the game between all parties: When Titus brought Angmar, the general idea was that too many nobles should not die, otherwise the trouble would be far greater than the gain. Roddy naturally had no objection.

But before leaving, a hidden arrow shot the traitor into a cripple... His temperament of vengeance has not changed, and not taking revenge is definitely not his style.

Howard waited for the barons to withdraw in despair. Roddy did not treat them as prisoners of war in exchange for ransom, which was considered a favor to the Duke of Angmar, but he mercilessly withheld half of the baggage these guys brought - so the three nobles only

He could break his teeth and roll back to his own territory as dejectedly as he could swallow.

The two guardian knights led the team to prepare to return today. According to what they conveyed... the town of Kig was directly assigned to Soderol. In addition, the knights under the name of Tranka were also ordered by the Duke to join Soderol.

Luo Er signed the contract, regardless of how many knights will eventually fulfill it, this is already an extremely kind "reward".

Based on this calculation, the wealth of Soderol's territory has already ranked in the middle and upper reaches of the Everta territory - for Rody's strategic policy, this is definitely a big step forward.

He looked at the experience bar and saw that as the level got higher and higher, the 110,000 experience gained from such a large-scale battle was not too much. However, what he was very concerned about was the changes in his team after accumulating more and more - fighting Ansardin, Mar.

Geda, now that he has defeated the cavalry of the kingdom's traitors, all the scouts have reached the basic level 10, and then he has to start thinking about how to transfer these scouts to different professions.

After sitting for a long time, Rody hammered his stiff lower back, then squatted down and continued to be in a daze. At this moment, there was a knock on the wooden door of the study room.

"Come in."

Rody's voice was a little hoarse. He turned his head and found that the person coming was Nata.

Last night, he and Brody apologized sincerely for a long time. Unexpectedly, the old village chief did not blame himself, but talked about another thing...

Rody suddenly thought of the book that Brody gave him, and he was in a trance for a moment. He looked at Nata outside the door for three to five seconds before he reacted, coughed dryly, and asked: "Hmm? Is something wrong?"

Only then did he remember that Nata had not spoken to him since yesterday.

When the wood elf walked in with an indifferent expression, Roddy, who was squatting on the ground, wanted to stand up. However, due to the severe muscle soreness, he almost sat down on the ground and it took him a long time to get up.

This kind of embarrassment would have made people laugh in the past, but Nata understood exactly what the guy in front of her had done... She rushed into the town with dozens of people to rescue her team, diverted hundreds of soldiers alone, and forcefully

In order to open up a way of escape, he finally gathered all his fighting power and defeated thousands of enemies...

If you hadn't personally experienced and witnessed such a deed, I'm afraid no one would believe it.

So seeing Rody's haggard and tired look, she felt an unprecedented respect in her heart - before that, Nata admired Rody's ability and archery skills, but after what happened yesterday

, she admired Rody from the bottom of her heart.

Because of such admiration, she decided to come here specifically just to say a word to Roddy:

"teacher."

Nata bent down and saluted. She had said this name before, but it was definitely not as heartfelt as it was today.

In a daze, Rody remembered the "Iceberg Mentor" in his memory.

At that time, he was initially "unconvinced" towards Nata, who had a colder temperament and more mature appearance. However, as the contact lasted for a long time and he witnessed Nata's actions several times, he finally became completely convinced.

I was convinced, put away the contempt in my heart, and had a sense of awe in my heart.

Looking at Nata in front of him, Roddy felt as if he had seen his former self...
