Warlord: King of All Clans

(I’m traveling far away, catching a train, typing on my phone, please help me check! Woof woof woof!)

As the only qualified military commander in the Earldom of Beowulf, it wouldn't take him two days to figure out this simple idea.

Even the Hunter King beside Leo was assigned by Knight Gunther because he was subconsciously worried that Count Fabti would take a risky move and target the River Bay Legion, which had no level eight strongman.

But Earl Hard trusts him so much and entrusts the future of the entire family to an outsider like him, so Gunther needs to prioritize the interests of Beowulf's family in everything.

If we look at this war purely from the perspective of the Beowulf family, the perfect ending would be that the elite human army of the Kurolof family and Leo would both suffer heavy losses, and Hader would take advantage of Count Fabti's absence and use all the strength of the city to defeat their orc heavy armored army.

Both elite legions were crippled, the foundation of the Kurolov family was damaged, and they would not be able to advance westward for another ten or eight years.

Even if the Grand Duke of the North was a little stronger, he would decisively send troops to the east to deal another blow to the weak Kurolov family.

Now the strongest Earl in the North is going to be beaten back to his original form and have to obey the orders of the Grand Duke again.

So Gunther held it in for two days before he couldn't help but remind Hader.

After all, he was Had's adventure leader and knew Had's temper well.

If his plan had been successfully implemented, Beowulf's family would have been able to survive for another generation, but his friendship with Hader would have come to an end.

At the last moment he finally figured it out. Everyone was forced to do the job, and he was the one working. Why should he have to take on everything?

Not to mention the complaints of Gunther Gregory, the former leader of the Salted Fish Corps, current commander of the Beowulf Legion, and seventh-level knight, outside the town of Biwoheim, Count Fabti has already begun to consider how to get out of this unscathed.

More than half of the human army of the Kurolov family was killed or wounded in this battle.

A large number of square cavalry and corner flag knights died in the battle, and the bodies of the elite heavily armored soldiers and musketeers who were trained at great expense were scattered all over the plain.

These soldiers were not randomly recruited from the local army, but were all core vassals around the Earl’s main city. There were many extraordinary knights among them, and it would take one or two generations to train them.

Originally, their plan was based on the power of Hewan's firearms during the Five Lords' Alliance period.

The powerful Count Kurolov Legion, with the assistance of the Dragon Knights, should have defeated the Riverbend Legion, forcing Leo to reveal all his cards, and then Fabti would have killed him personally.

But who could have imagined that the power of the River Bay firearms had increased by 30% in just one year, and Leo's trump card turned out to be a black dragon!

In terms of physical strength alone, this black dragon is already close to the peak of the high-level, enough to suppress all high-level ones.

While gathering the remaining soldiers, Locke Kurolov shouted to the new bodyguard beside him: "Go and support my father!"

After Gerard was detained, Fabuti assigned his son a seventh-level extraordinary bodyguard.

Hearing Locke's order, the seventh-level strong man did not hesitate to break away from the army formation and rush towards the opposite side.

But he did not get too close. Instead, he stood two hundred meters away from the River Bend Legion line, posing a threat from a distance.

This distance allows him to react enough to avoid the gunfire at the river bend, and also to provide support in time.

Count Fabuti was surrounded by the crowd, and suddenly he grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, "You two families are truly as close as brothers, but I wonder if you will still have this loyalty when you become enemies in the future?"

At this time, how could Earl Hard still listen to Fabti's provocation? He raised his sword and chopped him off. "Shameless villain, I'll hang your head on the gate of Kitland, so you can see for yourself whether you have loyalty or not!"

Fabuti raised his sword to block, and the two of them bickered and competed in strength.

The aftermath of the sword energy turned into air waves, plowing the surrounding land. All the middle and low-level extraordinary people were forced back, only Leo and the Wild Hunting King did not move.

The seventh-level swordsman of the Kurolov family, who was not far away, saw the battle start and also rushed over, his long sword dancing in front of him, accurately blocking all the incoming bullets.

The concentrated fire from dozens of rifled archers was unable to stop him; most of the bullets missed his target, and the few that did hit his sword produced sparks.

The seventh-level swordsman had clear thinking. He did not rush to join the battle between the two earls, but rushed directly to the skirmishers who attacked him.

Leo could only raise his sword to stop them, cursing, "The family tradition of the Kurolov family is really weird, don't they have any shame at all?"

The North still has a strong tradition of chivalry, and wars are always fought between soldiers and generals. Few high-ranking warriors are willing to lower themselves to slaughter the soldiers.

Under normal circumstances, it is always extraordinary against extraordinary, soldiers against soldiers, this has become an unwritten agreement.

In the extraordinary battles that Leo had witnessed, there were basically no situations where several powerful men joined forces to besiege one person.

Even during the Five Lords Alliance last year, when they challenged Godwin, an eighth-level warrior from the Beboos family, everyone chose to have a round-robin battle, and they had to let Godwin catch his breath in the middle to avoid being laughed at for winning unfairly.

During the peak period of Northern knight culture hundreds of years ago, there were even situations where one could avoid war by simply hanging up a white flag.

The commander defending the city was tired from fighting, so he simply said that there would be a truce today and he would fight again after two days.

The commander in chief of the siege would just set up camp and wait for the enemy to recover their strength.

But the number of Northern traditions broken by the Kurolov family in a few years is more than that of the other six families in a hundred years.

Hiding assassins, colluding with evil cults, forming alliances with beastmen, fighting without declaration, slaughtering soldiers...

Judging from the traditional northern values, this family's reputation is really bad.

Seeing Leo blocking his way, the seventh-level swordsman just wanted to thrust his sword forward.

Leo had just been promoted to a high level, and his realm was not stable, but with the support of the Frost Sword and the Dragon Bone Armor, he was able to fight back and forth with this mature seventh-level strong man.

The battle lasted for more than ten rounds and was evenly matched. After a hard fight, both sides lost their footing and retreated.

At this moment, a huge bone stick quietly appeared behind the seventh-level swordsman and hit him hard on the back.

The huge force knocked the level 7 swordsman flying, blood spurting out.

The wild hunter king, who looked like a brown bear, showed a proud smile.

He is not a Northern Knight, so he does not have to follow any chivalrous code. They are on a hunting route, and as long as they can kill the prey, that is a skill.

But the Hunter King's actions also gave Fabuti a chance to escape. He immediately avoided Had's attack, broke out of the encirclement, and escaped.

Hader was furious and chased after him, "You useless piece of shit, don't run away if you dare!"

But Count Fabti allowed him to be humiliated and just ran away.

The two powerful men had amazing leg strength and in the blink of an eye they jumped into the mountains and disappeared.

Leo, together with the Hunter King, dealt severe damage to the level 7 swordsman several times in a row, and cooperated with Solovy and others to surround and intercept him, and finally beheaded him.

Looking at the high-level swordsman whose head and body were separated, Leo rubbed his sore wrist, put away the Frost Sword, and complained to the approaching Solovie Knight: "The high-level extraordinary is too abnormal. A small level 7 is so difficult to kill."
