"You actually know this. Your name is too loud, even in towns near the Emerald Border, especially in the Emerald City, your words are more effective than Your Majesty's words. How could Your Majesty not have any rift against you?

”

Paulwater talked quietly, further shattering the psychological defense line of the North Wind.

"So this is retribution!"

He smiled coldly, and the long sword in his hand stood on the ground with a "scarlet" sound, as if he was making up for the last heavy blow to Duke Beifeng's heart.

"So, Your Majesty ordered me to brutally kill your son, and let me take over the barriers, your time is over, Lord Duke."

"I have never been fighting for His Majesty. I have been on duty here for 28 years. Even if I have the chance to go back, I have never been back. Even my son dares to take my name and dominate the kingdom...

”

The Duke of North Wind murmured to himself.

The desolate sound was like the fallen leaves withering in the wind in late autumn, stained with a bitter breath.

“You say nothing of this makes no sense.”

Paulwater spread his hands.

"Your Majesty only looks at the results, not the process. Maybe you are honest and honest, but who would like to have an extra safety hazard around you?"

"So, why don't you give this barrier to me, I will defend the elves' attack for you, and you will go on the road well. What do you think?"

The old knight lowered his head, as if he hadn't heard Paulwater's words.

He seemed to be immersed in the bad news that his son's death and the abandonment of his country he was guarding.

"Can you hold the elves' attack?"

After a while, the old knight suddenly asked softly.

He raised his deep eyes and stared at Paulwater calmly. The wrinkles on his forehead became denser, and he seemed to be older than before.

Paulwater originally thought that the old knight would collapse and go crazy, and would clamor for revenge, give up the barriers to protect and die with him.

Unexpectedly, he said something like this at the end.

This surprised Paulwater.

I didn't know how to answer for a while.

The air stagnated again, and after a moment, Paulwater spoke:

"You and I are Sky Knights under the influence of the Moonlight Holy Well. No matter how powerful the elves who attack barriers will eventually be limited to the sky level. Since you can defend them, then I, who are also Sky-level, can naturally be too.

.”

The Duke of Beifeng laughed when he heard this.

The smile was filled with misery and desolation, and a hint of contempt.

But those complex emotions gradually disappeared as the smile disappeared.

"You can't defend the elves' attack."

"From the time you start to calculate the strength of the elves and my strength, I know you can't hold on, so I can't defend this fortress for you, either you leave with the army, or you kill me here,

Or killed by me.”

Paulwater was impatient.

He originally thought that saying this would make the old knight lose his fighting spirit to resist and surrender directly, but he didn't expect that the old knight would still look like a stubborn donkey.

"What's the point of your persistence? Your soldiers are almost dead."

Paulwater pointed behind the old knight.

There, relying on the advantage of numbers and equipment, the army he brought had already gained the upper hand. Although the veterans under the old knight had rich combat experience and stronger strength, they could not beat four-handed hands with two fists.

The old knight didn't speak.

He just held the sword in his hand tightly, and the momentum on his body became fierce, like a ferocious beast that had already lost its life.

The same is true for those attacking elves, even more crazy than him.

He was ready to hand over the barrier to Paulwater or someone else.

But the premise is that Paulwater is to be able to kill him and step over his body.

Otherwise, you will not be qualified to guard this barrier.

"Old man, are you crazy?"

Paulwater's hair stood up all over his body. At this time, he felt as if he was facing the old knight when he was in the first knight assessment, but at that time he was just a knight escort.

"Dongdong!"

The sound of knight boots stepping on the floor tiles suddenly sounded.

The next moment.

The Duke of North Wind moved, and only his afterimage was left in place.

His figure had jumped into the air and landed on Paulwater like lightning. He had also picked up the giant hammer again. The strong wind tore and whistled, and the load-bearing pillar beside Paulwater was hit by a heavy hammer.

superior.

"boom!"

The load-bearing pillar shook violently.

The terrifying impact force hit Paulwater through the load-bearing pillar, knocking him away, hitting the city wall, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.

"You...you don't protect the barrier? You can also smash the load-bearing pillar? If there is a problem with the barrier, what should the elves attack? How to defend it?"

Paulwater struggled to stand up from the ground.

He questioned the old knight, but the old knight turned a deaf ear, like a chariot crushing forward, and the giant hammer in his hand swung around with a loud "click" and hit Paulwater after he avoided it.

On location.

The entire barrier was trembling violently under this hammer.

Fortunately Paulwater hid quickly.

If he was next to this, he could basically say goodbye to the world.

Although they are also Sky Knight-level strength, there is still a big gap between Sky Knights in terms of weapons and their own combat experience, as well as their mastery and skills of power.

At least in front of the Duke of North Wind who was attacking with all his might, Paulwater could only escape in a panic.

"What's the difference between giving you the barrier, but you can't defend the elves' attack and giving it to the elves? Then it's better to smash the barrier into pieces before the elves occupy this place and then destroy the Moonlight Holy Well before the elves occupy this place.

!”

The old knight's heavy footsteps came from the dust, and his almost crazy words.

Paulwater knew that the Duke of North Wind was not unstimulated, but he was already very excited by the previous words, and even planned to smash the entire barrier and the Moonlight Holy Well, so that the elves could not gain any advantage.

"In the past 28 years, I am worthy of the Kalanri Empire and the people of Kalanri."

"If you want to hand over the barrier to a waste like you, then the destruction of the barrier is a matter of time. All I can do is to prevent those elves from taking advantage of the convenience of the Nalvet barrier and continue to capture several other barriers in the Emerald Fortress."

As the old knight spoke, his steps gradually approached Paulwater.

Before they knew it, the two of them had already hit the position of the first checkpoint from the second checkpoint.

At this moment, Paulwater's rebels were still attacking the city wall, and the defenders of the North Wind were also resisting desperately, but this resistance gradually became pale and powerless after facing five or six times well-equipped enemies.

In contrast, Duke Beifeng had just arrived next to the Moonlight Holy Well.

Right behind Paulwater.

The silver-white spire-shaped building, more than five meters high, holds hazy and mysterious moonlight, inspires a light blue light curtain and protects the entire Emerald Fortress!

What the old knight has to do now is to destroy the Moonlight Holy Well.

The human race will not perish, nor will it be killed by the elves to the point of perseverance.

One day, the Emperor of Man will lead his army to counterattack the Emerald Forest, and the Moonlight Holy Well that had been destroyed at that time will not be able to stop the pace of the human army!

The Duke of North Wind believed in this.

So he took a deep breath and raised the hammer in his hand.

Then, it smashed down with a bang.

He was facing Paulwater, who was injured and unable to move, and also facing a corner of the Moonlight Holy Well.

"Single"

The giant hammer was steadily held by a big sword, and the power from the big sword was even heavier than the old knight's strength, which made the old knight raise his eyes in surprise.

What caught my eye was a handsome knight with blonde hair and blue eyes. He held the ancient sword in one hand, and it seemed that he was particularly relaxed and freehand when catching the hammer.

"Sir, things are not as bad as you think. Maybe your son is not dead yet, and this barrier may not necessarily fall into the hands of the rebels?"
