Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 705: Exile

Ante was holding a silver spoon to hold up the hot tea in his cup. Hearing Edward's words, his hand trembled, causing ripples to appear on the tea, as if Ante was in a complete mess.

He raised his head and said bitterly, "Do you even know this?"

"This isn't difficult." Edward said indifferently. In fact, after Rackett sent troops into the unicorn territory, he sent Dark Blade to Dornhill, where Rackett was. Regarding everything that happened in Mountain City, Dark Blade would use the Iron-winged Vulture to send back information every once in a while. Hence, Edward had received news a few days ago that Lackard had secretly dispatched troops. Counting the time, it was time for them to arrive.

Edward leaned forward and whispered in Ante's ear, "Sir, I don't know how Lance explained the purpose of this army to you. But in my opinion, an army of fifty Blood Wolf Knights and two hundred Blue Wolf Infantry can do serious damage to a knight's territory. If we leave them alone …"

"Impossible. Lance said that this army will be mixed with our unicorn army to strengthen our forces. Their command will belong to me!"

"How likely do you think it is?" Edward continued to beat. He could already hear the young man's heart shaking. He added, "If I were Lance, I would be able to substitute the army with the unicorns. When the army falls into my pocket, I don't think it matters who owns it anymore."

Ante's confidence finally collapsed. He forced himself to remain calm and said to the butler, "Go tell Daron that I want him to lock down the castle. No one is allowed in or out until I have a new order!"

After a pause, he added, "Send two more men to serve Mr. Lance."

The butler read the meaning behind his words and nodded.

'"The tea is cold, Sir Edward. Why don't you come and practice with me again?" Ante turned his head and said.

Edward stood up and Ante did not hand Lance over immediately. He was still watching. Edward knew that if he didn't completely defeat Rackett's army, Ante would still be able to catch those illusory hopes.

Therefore, I should be the villain. It's necessary for this youth to understand the cruelty of reality. Edward thought, then raised a sword on the ground and made a gesture, "Please teach me."

A group of people were advancing along the steep mountain path of Mount Lyon. On the left side of the mountain path was a towering cliff, and on the other side was a cliff. From here, they could overlook the Red Sun Forest. Large tracts of crimson maples occupied the ground, and from a distance, they looked like a sea of blood.

Glenn took a deep breath and retracted his gaze from the ominous crimson color of the Red Sun Forest. He landed on the path of the narrow path once again. The narrow path between the mountains of Lyon, which could only accommodate two riders, led directly to the border post at the unicorn's territory. At this speed, they would arrive at the post in about an hour's time. Glenn sat on his horse and spat. "Why didn't you call Hero for such a job and transfer me to such a country place? What the hell!" He said hatefully.

As the deputy of the Knights, Glenn, who had the strength of Level 18, could be considered a top figure in Dornhill City. But this time, there was clearly a certain political exile. According to Rackard, Glenn's army would be mixed into the Unicorn Legion, and Glenn would eventually replace the current Legion, Daron. At that time, Glen would receive the treatment of the Guild Leader. However, the position of the Guild Leader was not in Dornhill City but in the unicorn territory, so the Guild Leader's weight would be greatly different.

Glen's temper was bad, and his popularity was also bad. Originally, there were other people who could handle missions like this. Moreover, no matter what, he still had a certain amount of weight in the Knights League with his level 18 strength. However, Rackett was persuaded to send a dignified vice regiment of the count to such a place. It was indeed a bit of an exile.

"When I get back, I'll make those people look good." He hated to think.

In his terrible mood, the unicorn's border post was gradually within sight, and he could already vaguely see the flags flying on the post. Glen snorted, his legs clutching the horse's belly, and he quickened his pace. At this moment, in the wooden house of the sentry post, a few sentries from the Unicorn Legion were tied together. Their uniforms and armor were taken off and they were only wearing thin clothes. Fortunately, the fireplace beside him was burning brightly, and the temperature in the room wasn't too low.

"You can't do this, I am" The current team tried to protest, but when a towel was stuffed into their mouths, his protest could only turn into a wuwu wuwu wuwu wuwu wuwu wuwu wuwu.

Broy frowned as he looked at the apparently too narrow uniform and the armor that didn't fit him at all. Under the bitter laughter of the soldiers beside him, he sighed, "Don't you have any clothes and armor that are bigger?"

A soldier replied, "Your Excellency, this is already the largest size. You can make do with it."

"It's all that Edward," Broy said hatefully. "He just called Woody over. Why would he send me to battle? Why would he need me to change into these sentry's ridiculous clothes …"

The captain next to him spat out the towel and shouted, "This is against the law of the unicorn territory. In the name of the honorable Viscount Ante, I... Ah."

Broyle simply knocked him unconscious with a palm strike to save him from screaming. At this moment, a soldier pushed open the door and said, "Sir, we have found the enemy's tracks. There are still twenty minutes to go before the sentry post."

"I see. Tell the others to be prepared and let us welcome these guests." Broy raised the Hammer of Extinction and revealed a sinister smile. However, he was currently wearing short and narrow clothes, so not only was this smile not frightening, it even made people laugh.

A few low laughter came from the wooden house at the sentry post.

Broyle strode out of the wooden house with his warhammer in hand. A few soldiers in the room rubbed their heads and followed him with bitter faces. Broy shouted, "Don't stand there. Go, put up the barricade. We're soldiers of the Unicorn Legion now, and we can't let anyone swagger into the territory. Well, in the name of Viscount Ante."

He did learn it in a decent way.

After receiving the information, Edward made a few arrangements. One of them, Broy brought an army to the sentry post to welcome Rackett's men. According to Edward's instructions, Broy and a dozen or so soldiers arrived at the sentry post ahead of time and replaced the original sentry. As for the other soldiers, they were lying in ambush elsewhere in the passageway, making sure that Rackett's army suffered heavy losses.

Only by defeating Rackett's army would Ante be able to make up his mind. Edward was in Unicorn Castle at the moment, but he was not worried about the outcome. The moment she received the information in advance, it was obvious who the Goddess of Victory was on.
