Lord of War

Prince Cazes Hokkidi slumped down on the chair with a dejected expression, his eyes dazed.

The Crimson Knights that he had spent almost all his life building, unexpectedly ended up being wiped out today, on this kind of battlefield that he had never paid attention to from the beginning? And all of this is based on Thaddeus breaking through the limits of his realm!

So Cazes couldn't figure it out anyway, why the other person didn't die after being hit by Thaddeus?

Although there is an essential difference between this kind of breakthrough that suddenly surpasses the limit of the realm in an emergency and the sanctuary powerhouse who develops step by step, but even so, Thaddeus's blow just now is a genuine sanctuary-level powerhouse Attack with all your strength.

"Why?" Cazes muttered to himself, his eyes were out of focus, "Why didn't he die? This...how...is it possible..."

On the other side of the battlefield, William watched Reina pull out the spear that pierced Thaddeus's brow, and let Thaddeus' body slowly fall down. William knew that they had won this war. Although there was a change in the breakthrough of Thaddeus' realm in the middle, fortunately, he did not break through the realm of a quasi-sacred strong man who could basically use the power of the rules, but because he was forced to the point of no return by Rena. Only then did it break through.

There is an absolute difference between the two.

If Achar was the opponent who broke through the realm today, then he would definitely not lose strength like Thaddeus, even if the relationship could not be completely stabilized because of the temporary breakthrough. But at least 70% of the strength of the lower sanctuary powerhouse can be exerted.

In this way, what is the outcome of today's war. It's really very unpredictable.

But even so, it is impossible to say that William is not heartbroken.

Affected by that blow, a total of 1,500 northern barbarians were lost!

In William's eyes, the value of these 1,500 northern barbarians was no less than that of the Crimson Knights in the eyes of Prince Cazes Hochdi. It's just that the situation on the battlefield has always been changing rapidly, so when encountering such a sudden situation that is completely beyond logical expectations, William is also powerless. However, according to his prediction, the final scene that determines the end of this war. Should be coming soon too.

"Woo—————"

Almost as soon as William's guess fell, loud bugles began to sound from around the battlefield.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of orderly footsteps began to sound, and mercenary regiments holding different flags began to appear in all directions on the battlefield!

Six mercenary regiments entered the battlefield from different angles at this time,

It seemed like a war of siege and annihilation.

When they saw the appearance of these six mercenary regiments, the three legions under the command of Prince Cazes Hochidi, who were still fighting, immediately knew that their doom was over, and they would fight to the death no matter what. But as long as the enemy's encirclement is formed, they will eventually die.

The mentality of everyone on the battlefield immediately produced a subtle change.

The legion that was originally entangled with Cecilia's Guards on the far left battlefield, although it wanted to help the other two legions that belonged to it, but faced with the former Fourth Legion colleagues who were only entangled but not fighting to the death, this legion There is no plan to fight to the death. Of course, it is impossible for Clover, who has been hanging out in the trading capital for so long, not to know this grasp of human nature. So he didn't order a death battle, but let the two legions entangle each other, but once this legion wanted to break out and join the other two legions, Clover would immediately order a death attack.

So after several confrontations and trials, both of them knew each other's plan and bottom line. On the contrary, they are the two legions with the lowest casualty rate on the battlefield.

On the right side, because of the battlefield opened up by the fusion of the Thunder Lion and the Iron Wing, the intensity and scale of the battle is much more tragic and tragic. Although at first Alfred relied on the flame lion fangs in his hand. Kaqi was suppressed for a while, but the Fire Dragon Legion and the other legion were their own people who had been training together for a long time, so they were suppressed a bit miserably at the beginning. Once they stood up and joined forces, they naturally became the Thunder Lions with fewer numbers. And the steel wings were completely suppressed.

Originally, at this time, the 2,000 northern barbarians who had successfully defended against the Scarlet Knights and severely injured them should have come back to help, completely stabilizing the battlefield. It's a pity that because of Thaddeus' genius, it almost made this the only flaw in William's entire plan.

But at this time, because the six mercenary regiments had already begun to press towards the battlefield, the reactions of the three legions were also different.

The army that was entangled with Cecilia's guards obviously began to slow down its offensive. Under such a situation, Clover naturally didn't intend to force him too hard. Anyway, as long as the army surrounded him, even if the other party wanted to resist, it would probably be impossible. Can only wait to die. So naturally, under this kind of tacit understanding, the two armies began to gradually slow down the intensity of the fighting, until finally both sides stopped fighting, and then returned to the level of confrontation with each other like a watershed.

On the other side of the battlefield, another army that had been cooperating with the Fire Dragon Legion to launch a fierce counterattack suddenly slowed down its offensive, but this legion was not as calm as the other legion, and many soldiers simply abandoned it. Weapon turned around and ran away, as if running slowly would become a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Affected by this, even the movements of many soldiers of the Fire Dragon Legion began to slow down. Many people who were not even clear about the situation looked at their companions inexplicably. Why did everyone suddenly give up attacking? Only when they saw the enemy reinforcements in the distance that were shrinking the encirclement, these soldiers finally realized that the situation of the war was beyond their control.

However, some people ran away, some stopped or even surrendered, and of course some people were still fighting desperately.

For example, Kaqi is still the pious people who followed him.

The size of this group of people is the smallest, but the attack is the craziest. It seems that because they are already desperate for their own lives, they decided to completely burn their lives at this last moment. It's just that if there is still the support of my companions. Maybe they can really beat the Thunder Lion and Iron Wings to the point where they can completely revoke their establishment, but it's a pity that they no longer have such a chance.

The Thunder Lion and Iron Wings, which had already been pushed back to the verge of collapse. Because more than half of the soldiers of the Fire Dragon Legion and the soldiers of another legion stopped, the last breath of being hanged finally made them breathe completely, and the counterattack that followed was naturally extremely unfavorable to Kaqi and others. Especially the combination of Alfred and Annuo, this typical combination of offense and defense directly completely cut off Kaqi's suicidal idea, but as the battle time prolongs, Kaqi's injuries also become more serious. More and more, and the guards who followed him to fight to the death are basically dead.

At such a time in the war, even a blind man finally knows that it is completely impossible to win.

And Sean. He led the members of the Holy Roman Knights and the Scarlet Knights, and headed straight for the enemy base camp. Although there were several gold-level strongmen beside Prince Cazes Hochidi, the number of strong men on Sean's side was also large. It won't go anywhere. At least Xuefanio and Tini are basically strong men who can fight two against each other. Coupled with Sean's simple and rough fighting method, it is really impossible to stop Sean without a strong man in the sanctuary. attack.

Unfortunately. The only strong man in the sanctuary beside Prince Cazes Hochidi has been stopped by the coachman Pod next to Florence.

As the muffled sound from the khaki hemisphere became louder and louder, it was obvious that the dispute between the two sanctuary powerhouses was about to come to an end. And as long as the two of them have a result, then the final conclusion can be drawn on the battle that will determine the final outcome of the southern theater—if Pod wins, then Prince Cazes Hochdi is over; Prince Cazes Hokkidi's sanctuary powerhouse won, so they can still struggle.

but. It's just a struggle.

Because Sean still has the biggest and most important hole card in this war: Andrew.

Without the backing of this hole card, how would Sean dare to spread the stall so big?

So in this battle going straight to the local base camp, Sean also didn't press too hard. The two sides just broke out in a melee that was more than fierce and not enough to fight on the hillside-of course it caused such a situation. Most of the reason is because in the face of uphill battles, the advantage of the Knights will be weakened by at least half. If it weren't for the strong men borrowed by Tini, Sefanio, Sean and Florence, this charge would probably be impossible to fight.

As for Sean himself, he didn't make a move, but stood leaning on his sword and looked at the battlefield of the strong man in the sanctuary.

There is a deep fanaticism hidden in the depths of his eyes, which is the desire for power!

However, Xiao En is also very clear that it is not the lack of experience points that restricts him from breaking through the limit of the realm. Since the outbreak of the war in the southern theater, the soaring experience points of various types have directly caused his hoarded experience points to directly exceed eight. digits, on the way to nine digits. Even though the experience requirement for each level of the gold level is almost twice that of the silver level, this experience value is definitely enough for him to directly rise to the next gold peak when he breaks through the lower gold level.

What really restricts Xiao En's breakthrough is that he lacks key props!

Therefore, unless Sean is willing to give up the class of Cursed Swordsman and change to another class, otherwise, until he finds this key factor, he can only be limited to the upper silver peak.

At the moment when Sean was slightly distracted, a violent explosion no less than the blow that Thaddeus tried to injure Rena just now finally sounded on the battlefield!

The huge khaki semicircle that had expanded to hundreds of meters was suddenly completely shattered, and the flying yellow sand in the sky even made people mistakenly think it was a desert. Along with the yellow sand flying all over the sky, it can be vaguely seen that there are traces of energy that can still be captured by the naked eye everywhere in the entire site environment, and at the same time, a figure flew out of this area and hit Baibing On the mountain wall of Zhiling Ridge, a small-scale vibration was caused, until the countless falling stones completely buried the pothole.

And when the flying yellow sand finally gradually settled down, everyone's vision was no longer so blurred, and the traces of energy fluctuations scattered in the air began to calm down, and then everyone on the battlefield took a breath of air-conditioning.

What was presented in front of them was a radius of nearly 500 meters. A huge pit with a depth of at least tens of meters, and almost everywhere in the pit are scorched or condensed crystal walls. From time to time, there are also several extremely hideous and terrifying huge cracks across the stone walls that have become crystal walls. Judging from these traces of the battlefield, one can infer how fierce and powerful the battle between the two lower sanctuary powerhouses was. All of this has completely surpassed the imagination of normal powerhouses.

This is the battle of the real sanctuary powerhouse!

Compared with the battlefield environment where these two sanctuary powerhouses were fighting, the blow that Thaddeus unleashed with all his strength was simply a child's play.

However, the curiosity about the final winner of this battle overwhelmed the awe of the strength of the strong in the sanctuary, after all, it was related to their future fate.

soon. There was another muffled explosion.

But this time, the sound was much softer than the sound that ended the decisive battle between the two sanctuary powerhouses.

Everyone saw that countless gravels were blasted away, and then a person walked out from inside.

It's a skinny old man!

Pod!

Sean's pupils shrank suddenly. Although he knew that even if Pod lost, he would not lose this battle, but he still couldn't help but feel nervous inside.

Then, everyone saw that Pod walked directly to the edge of the huge battle pit, and jumped down.

this moment. Everyone's mind couldn't help becoming more tense.

However, the exaggerated scene of continuing the war that everyone had imagined did not break out again, and everything was so peaceful that it was even a little unbelievable. But this time, Pod also didn't make people wait too long, it only took a few minutes—perhaps because the huge pit on the battlefield was too deep—so when Pod came out again a few minutes later When the bottom of the pit slowly floated up, the people on Xiao En's side immediately erupted into earth-shattering cheers.

And compared with it. It was the surviving members of Prince Cazes Hochdi's side who all dropped their weapons in tacit understanding.

Even those gold powerhouses also chose to give up resistance.

Because everyone on the battlefield had clearly seen that at this moment Pod was holding a human head in his hand.

Although many of them don't know who the owner of this head is. But it was Pod who jumped into the huge pit himself and took it out, so his identity is naturally ready to be revealed - someone who can fight fiercely with Pod in this big pit. Other than those who are also strong in the sanctuary, who else can there be?

As for why these people choose to give up resistance, the reason is also very simple.

Those who have experienced national wars are very clear that once the sanctuary powerhouses are put on the battlefield, it will no longer be the ordinary army that controls the balance of war, unless the sanctuary powerhouses on both sides perish together, or win The sanctuary powerhouses were seriously injured and could not fight anymore, otherwise, it would be those special operations corps or these sanctuary powerhouses who could decide the final outcome of the war.

As for Pod, this sanctuary powerhouse from Sean's side can still suspend in mid-air with his own power at this time, no matter how embarrassed he is now, no one will dare to underestimate him, let alone Said to ignore. Besides, the six mercenary regiments from Xiao En's side have also completely completed the encirclement, so even if they fight again at this time, there will be no result other than a complete annihilation.

Therefore, at this moment, except for Kaqi and a very small number of people who are still desperately fighting, no one on the battlefield will choose to resist anymore, and almost everyone has chosen to surrender. After all, for the vast majority of people, the change of lords in the territory or the change of the country is nothing to them, and the real damage to the interests is only those nobles who are usually high above.

A few minutes later, when Sean brought a group of members of the knight order and the captives to Prince Cazes Hochdi, what Sean saw was the face of the prince who had aged ten times in an instant.

Everyone stopped advancing within a distance of about 20 meters from the prince. The members of the Knights began to place the enemy troops who had surrendered halfway up the mountain, and quickly formed a circle to protect them from possible surprise attacks. Only Sean did not stop at that distance, but continued to walk forward, until he was one meter in front of the prince who used to have a very high royal influence in the Kingdom of Dabiang, and then stopped. down.

"I lost." Prince Cazes Hokkidi sighed, "I am willing to surrender."

Looking at the prince, Sean had to admit that Cazes was indeed a very attractive middle-aged man.

His image is handsome and upright, especially when he is middle-aged, he has added a kind of mature charm. Although the defeat in this war made him look a bit decadent, but at this moment when Xiao En came to him, He still sorted out his appearance a little bit, trying to make himself look more in line with the status of a nobleman, and even if it was the tone and attitude of speaking at this time, he also put his posture in a relatively low position, at least not giving Sean any domineering that belongs to the aristocracy.

From this point of view, Sean really can't use "I see you are upset" as an excuse.

It's just that there is indeed an irreconcilable relationship between Sean and Prince Cazes Hokkidi.

Not for anything else, just because of his contract with the devil.

Therefore, Xiao En shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "I know that you are a very ambitious lord, and whether it is military, political or even personal martial arts strength, you have reached the definition of a genius in this world. But I still can't accept your surrender... At least, you must die."

As if he had expected this ending long ago, Prince Cazes Hokkidi actually showed an elegant smile, and then nodded: "In my capacity, if I am alive, it is indeed a trouble, and I can Understood....Then, can I ask you something, honorable Lord Pandalord?"

Cazes Hockey didn't call Sean a baron, but called him a lord. In a sense, this was equivalent to putting Sean on an equal footing with him. After all, while he is a prince, he is also just the lord of a territory.

"If I can do it." Sean hesitated for a moment, but still said.

"I hope you can spare my heirs and my wife." Prince Cazes Hochdi said, "Even if it is exile, please don't embarrass them, after all, they are all innocent."

"I can let your wife go, but I'm sorry, I can't let go of your heir." Sean frowned slightly, and then said in a deep voice, "As for the reason, you should also know."

Sighing softly, Prince Cazes Hokkidi looked helpless: "I understand, there is no way to do this, after all... this is the only way to avoid revenge for blood relatives."

"Almost." Sean said casually.

In fact, although the nobles are protected by the ancient noble law when they are defeated, as long as they surrender, they can avoid death, but they never consider this point in the war of extermination. Whether to spare a noble depends entirely on the battlefield commander at that time. Mood. But there is one thing that will be dealt with very cleanly, and that is to cut off the source of blood relatives' revenge. Whether it is in the war of extermination or the civil strife of the nobles, there is usually no mercy in the slightest.

However, even without the excuse of revenge by blood relatives, it is impossible for Sean to let the blood of Prince Cazes Hochidi stay, because it conflicts with anything he has.

"However." Almost at the moment when Prince Cazes Hokkidi was in despair, Sean suddenly said, "I can let your little daughter live, but it's just a condition that she must agree to me."

"What conditions?" Prince Cazes Hochdi frowned.

"If he is willing to marry one of my followers, then I can let her go."

"One of your followers?"

"Yes." Sean nodded, "I think His Royal Highness should also know this person."

"Who?" Prince Cazes Hokkidi was indeed a little puzzled.

"Rud Michelin." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users, please go to read.)
