Chapter 1118: Chapter 681: Territory Battle (Upper)_2 Chapter 1118: Chapter 681: Territory Battle (Upper)_2 “White Knight, since you’ve come to my doorstep, I, as the host, naturally can’t neglect to entertain you. First, accept my first gift.”

Leo Ray raised his eyebrows and muttered to himself.

…

“Hahaha, the opportunity to perform in front of the Crown Prince has finally come!”

Accompanied by the tidy footsteps, Count Koneil led his most elite troops, the heavy infantry, on the Magic Bridge, advancing aggressively.

“A humble Otherworlder, daring to challenge the authority of our Coldflame traditional nobles, is truly ignorant! Lately, I, the city lord, have killed quite a few of these guys who could only beg for mercy.”

Koneil’s sharp long handle axe flashed a cold light, and he thought to himself, “You lowly Otherworlder, or whatever Mr. Lane of the princess, let me, the city lord of the Giant Rock City, personally send you the funeral song of the end.”

Just as Koneil, full of malice, was about to lead his troops and be the first to cross the bridge.

An abrupt change occurred.

Without any warning, a burst of urgent water flow sounds came from far to near, passing through Koneil’s fully enclosed heavy battle helm and into his ears.

“What’s that noise?”

Standing on the bridge, Koneil was slightly stunned. He subconsciously looked to his left hand side, towards the north. The urgent water sound came from that direction.

Unlike the sound of the rapid water flow under his feet, the sudden water flow sound was obviously more powerful and torrential, like a raging giant beast surging towards them.

As everything happened so suddenly, before Koneil could react,

The White Knight’s urgent and anxious voice followed, “It’s a water attack! Koneil, lead the team at full speed! Soldiers who haven’t crossed the bridge, retreat with me! Mages on standby, cast your respective barrier spells to prevent the flood from spreading!”

“Wha…What?!”

By the time Koneil reacted, a huge wave carrying unstoppable power and numerous uprooted trees along the bank had already appeared before the increasingly horrified city lord of Giant Rock City.

In the blink of an eye, the flood beast hidden under the night roared and swallowed Koneil and his unprepared soldiers on the bridge.

Many soldiers from the Vanguard Legion who were ready to cross the bridge began to retreat in a panic at the White Knight’s shout. However, their frantic escape speed couldn’t catch up with the speed of the flood.

For a time, a large number of soldiers whose eyes were filled with panic and their killing intent hadn’t dissipated yet were caught up in the huge waves, unable to even struggle.

As for the mages who were just about to concentrate and cast their spells, they were also swept away by the flood before they could summon their magic barriers. Their tiny figures quickly disappeared in the waves and along the river.

In the process, many soldiers were either knocked unconscious or killed on the spot when they collided with the large trees mixed in the waves.

Under the moonlit night, the flood only subsided after it completely devoured the most elite Vanguard Legion. The screams and panic of the soldiers echoed in the vast forest for a long time.

It goes without saying, the fate of these traditional noble infantry wrapped in heavy armor could be easily imagined.

At this point, the traditional noble army, which hadn’t even started their massacre, was utterly annihilated by Leo Ray’s sudden reinforcements.

“Reporting to White Knight Lord, the Vanguard Legion led by Count Koneil has lost all fighting capabilities!”

Soon, a young scout with a panicked expression and mostly soaked in water appeared in front of the White Knight, who had retreated to a safe area.

“You may leave.”

The White Knight spoke indifferently and waved casually.

However, from the increasingly intense pressure emanating from the White Knight, it was clear that he was in an extremely irritated state.Standing beside him, Brocade Winthrop, sporting a refined and scholarly demeanor, still appeared utterly shocked.

Judging from the enormous volume of water, Mr. Lane’s damming and water release seemed to be a tremendous feat achieved overnight.

“No wonder, Mr. Lane had a winning look last night and even managed to defeat three legions, including Count Koneil’s, before he saw their territory. If we account for the legion of cavaliers who instigated the White Knight and Nightmare Knight’s strife…”

Brocade Winthrop took a deep breath, his face showing even greater amazement, and muttered to himself, “I must admit, this young man from the Otherworld has got some skills…”

Just as Brocade Winthrop marveled at this thought.

The White Knight beside him asked indifferently, “Has Rodrick Thompson’s legion caught up?”

Hearing the White Knight’s words, Brocade Winthrop nodded and replied, “Yes, they have caught up.”

“Good, let’s continue moving forward.”

The White Knight’s voice remained calm as water, declaring, “I will make the Princess’s Guest Official pay a heavy price.”

Having said that, the White Knight took the lead in walking forward.

“It seems the White Knight is really furious this time.”

Watching the White Knight’s retreating silhouette, Brocade Winthrop remained silent and followed him.

As Brocade Winthrop sped up to match the White Knight’s pace, he contemplated internally: “I have witnessed this hidden immense killing intent in the White Knight several times.”

“Every time it appeared in the past, his opponents met a tragic fate. I wonder if Mr. Lane will be able to withstand this boundless fury this time?”

Brocade Winthrop adjusted his black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and continued his pondering, “It’s important to know that the White Knight has many hidden cards up his sleeve, and even I, his long-time friend, don’t fully understand how many terrifying means he hides.”

“Facing the White Knight’s endless rage, I wonder how Mr. Lane will respond? Regardless, the traditional nobles have come prepared this time, especially with regards to siege warfare.”

…

When the rotund Rodrick Thompson and Krooni led the rearguard legion back to the Shadow Demon River, they were both dumbstruck by the scene before them.

Littered along the shoreline were immense amounts of debris, including mud, branches, leaves, and even the corpses of soldiers half-buried in the soil – a sight so chilling it could make anyone’s hair stand on end.

The two had already heard about the vanguard legion’s previous river crossing debacle.

Overcoming their shock, their greasy fat faces simultaneously revealed a subtle, grim smirks.

On one hand, they hoped that the Nightmare Knight legion laying siege to Cyan Town would suffer heavy losses; on the other hand, they naturally looked forward to personally taking down the Princess’s Guest Official.

Since the vanguard legion that had entered the Demonic Shadow Forest had been wiped out, their rearguard legion would undoubtedly become the main force in attacking the territory.

“Krooni, you’re quite the prophet, but I like it.”

At this thought, a menacing grin spread across Rodrick Thompson’s chubby face, sneering, “It seems that the head of the Princess’s Guest Official will definitely fall into the hands of this City Lord.”

“Heh, naturally.”

Krooni was obviously surprised that his slippery words had proven so accurate, swallowing saliva before nodding and bowing continuously, “In the presence of Lord Rodrick Thompson, the Princess’s Guest Official’s territory will undoubtedly crumble. I can hardly wait to see him groveling and begging for mercy.”

With their conversation over, the two maliciously laughed before leading their vengeful soldiers through the magic bridge set up on the riverbank.

Together with the infantry legions at the forefront, they pushed deeper into the Demonic Shadow Forest under the command of the White Knight.
