This Holy Knight is So Despicable!

Chapter 70: Chapter 70 Allowing the Crack to Spread (Three Updates)

Helen’s heart at this moment was filled with despair.

Amidst the onslaught of the Holy Guard that was like a tidal wave, their defense was struggling to hold on.

Thirty-six enemies, agile down to the very bending of their fingers, were just like living humans.

Yet, these living beings seemed to share a collective mind, allowing them to synchronize perfectly and execute seamless cooperation, advancing and retreating with precision.

As if they had telepathy!

The most terrifying part was, the battle formation used by the Holy Guard was incredibly exquisite, and of a style never seen before!

It was ever-changing, capable of offense and defense, and combined with the masterful coordination of the thirty-six, the entire battle seemed like a living creature!

No, it was a beast!

The strong battle formation they prided themselves on was simply incomparable.

Defensive formation, charge formation, swift attack formation... They were so simple and crude that they were laughable!

Lette stood outside the battle with his hands behind his back, leisurely as if the thirty-six slaughter gods on the battlefield had nothing to do with him.

Emily clenched her fists excitedly, as an Elemental Mage, she truly felt the allure of the third realm’s overclocked state!

Moreover, she believed that overclocking was not the endpoint! There must be a higher realm beyond it!

"So, not going to activate your domain yet?"

Lette suddenly spoke, stunning everyone momentarily, then all eyes turned to Helen, the Deputy Leader of the Holy Rose Knights.

This outstanding female knight, so young yet already reached the Holy Rank.

Such an achievement is not something even every Apprentice Saint Heir or Daughter could attain.

Helen was very conflicted at this moment, as their opponents in the battle were of a lower rank, and their numbers were equal.

Under such circumstances, activating her domain seemed to lack knightly spirit.

"Just activate it, don’t forget, your real opponent is me."

Upon hearing Lette’s words, Helen immediately made up her mind.

Against Saint Wright, could she even think of holding back? It was arrogance on her part!

"Holy!!"

With a furious roar, Helen’s aura exploded. Although it wasn’t visible to the naked eye, everyone present could feel a force field rapidly expanding from Helen’s center.

The female knights covered by this force field suddenly felt like stranded fish returning to the water.

Their speed, strength, and endurance were greatly enhanced, and their coordination steadily improved!

While enjoying the domain’s blessing, they also fed their strength back to the domain.

The weak received the support of the strong, as the depletion gradually balanced out, making the battle group more like a cohesive whole.

The previously precarious battlefield situation instantly stabilized.

They even had spare strength to launch decent counterattacks.

"What talent."

Taylor exclaimed, "Who would’ve thought her domain is beneficial in group combat, she’s simply a natural-born battle group leader.

I’m really curious about the true effect of her domain."

Lilith shook her head, "Something so crucial to life and death, how could one possibly share it with others?

However, no matter what it is, it’s useless now."

Sure enough, after Lette saw the opponent activate her domain, he made a slicing motion toward the battlefield.

Just like that, the thirty-six Holy Guards split into seventy-two, doubling in number.

Although the individual strength of each dropped, the change in the overall battle intensified, and the offensive became even more aggressive.

The just stable battlefield situation suddenly turned precarious again.

"Your domain is not seasoned enough, better practice more."

Lette made another slicing motion, turning the seventy-two into one hundred and forty-four, attacking from four directions simultaneously.

In the blink of an eye, they sent the Holy Rose Knights into disarray, each with a Light Blade at their necks.

Seeing defeat was certain, Helen was extremely unwilling. She pushed back the Holy Guard in front of her and charged toward Lette.

"Hahaha, just now realized the correct answer? Alas, too late."

Lette hooked his finger, and all the Holy Guards converged into one, blocking Helen’s path. At this moment, the Holy Guard had also advanced to the Fourth level.

"Overclocking is indeed powerful!"

The Fourth-level Holy Guard raised their Light Blades and slashed toward Helen.

The surging Holy Light rushed in like a flood, forcing Helen to raise her Protective Battle Energy in defense.

Even with domain augmentation, she still took a step back.

That step thoroughly shattered her pride.

"In the overclocked state, not only is the energy level of elements increased, but the efficiency is also nearly perfect."

Lette took the opportunity to impart knowledge to Emily, "To others, it might seem like exerting power beyond the current rank.

But in truth, it is the true strength of this rank, just that others not reaching overclock can’t exert their full strength."

Lette, with his hands behind, looked at the kneeling Helen.

"You all did very well, much better than I anticipated. Out of admiration and respect, I won’t take your special case spot.

A day and a half is still a day and a half.

Everyone is already very tired today, get some rest early tonight.

Tomorrow morning, I’ll take you on a nice tour around the Holy City!

You’ve been working hard for four years, consider tomorrow a day off, to see what the Holy City is like after four long years.

I have matters to attend to, so I’ll head back first, see you all tomorrow morning."

Leaving the defeated and dazed Holy Roses, Lette waved his hand and left the manor with the four who came for the show.

Walking along the road, Emily asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Why insist on a day and a half in the end, doesn’t that mean you won’t achieve the purpose of extending time?"

"After so long, your mind still keeps its original speed. Look at Taylor, though his speed was slow before, now he’s clearly progressed! He didn’t even ask!"

Taylor rubbed his stomach, "Boss, my stomach still hurts..."

Lette sighed, "Flander, what do you think?"

"The intent of His Master is to win hearts, a mix of authority and kindness, a stick, then a sweet date.

At the same time, he proved that he wasn’t intentionally making things difficult for them, nor intending to extend the time, making them let their guard down.

Moreover, I believe His Master, a day’s time is enough for him to achieve the desired effect, there’s no need to extend it by two more days.

Lastly, he also dampened the enthusiasm of the Holy Rose Knights.

Making them realize, under His Master, they couldn’t stir any waves. They couldn’t even defeat the summoned Holy Guard, let alone be of any help.

After realizing their unimportance, their vigilance would decrease correspondingly.

Defeated so thoroughly, they probably won’t have the face to say they want to carry out the protection task again."

Lilith leaned in, "Nice analysis, but you missed one point."

"What?"

"Hmph, he also avenged the earlier grudge. Isn’t it, Bandit of Beauty?"

Lette wasn’t bothered at all, "What’s wrong with a man being lecherous? Besides, if a man doesn’t like women, what should he like? Like oil?"

"Well said, Boss! What’s oil?"

"Something very lubricating from my hometown!"

Lette turned to look at the three of them, "Young ladies, tomorrow I have a small task for you.

While shopping on the commercial street, try to lure the Holy Roses away in groups of threes and twos, the more scattered they are, the better.

Let the crack named suspicion spread recklessly."
