Move quickly—our primary target is Gervas!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No problem, Freya. By the way, I heard nobles usually live on the third floor of the inner keep. Freya, Iron Claw—is that right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. The first floor of a noble’s castle houses dining halls and parlors; the second floor has more parlors and guest rooms; the third floor is the noble’s own study and bedroom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So the moment we storm the inner keep, head straight for the third floor—take out that treacherous Gervas first!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Perfect, I can barely wait. Last time that shameless Gervas kept threatening to cut off our noses and ears—this time we’ll make him pay in blood!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly—blood for blood!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Whoosh!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Thud!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? What was that sound?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the tribal heirs impatiently moved forward, a whistle of air pierced through, followed by a wet thud of flesh being pierced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah! Arrows—someone’s been hit!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Whoosh whoosh whoosh!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Thud thud thud!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That single arrow seemed to trigger a switch—next moment, more arrows rained down from all sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, more tribal warriors collapsed to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it, we’ve been spotted—push forward!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, even the slowest of the tribal savages snapped to attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, the once-silent back garden erupted into chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining tribal savages, led by Freya and several tribal heirs, charged toward the inner keep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, those with totemic power activated their totems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well, well—I’m impressed! Over twenty totem warriors? No wonder you dared come all this way to assassinate me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But you’re unlucky—you’ve run into a minor noble like me. Otherwise, you might’ve actually succeeded.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid a ring of guards, Gervas appeared calmly on the balcony behind the inner keep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a loud cry rang out from the front: “Tribal warriors—attack!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, Iron Bear led fifty savage soldiers to encircle the tribal group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the towering, broad-shouldered savages—each nearly two meters eighty tall—the tribal savages froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s going on? Isn’t this supposed to be a human castle?” Several tribal heirs turned pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph. Yes, this is a human castle—but who told you Lord Gervas has only human soldiers?” The knights of Migen also stepped forward with cold smirks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You! I recognize you—those were you beside Gervas that day!” Iron Claw and the others instantly identified Migen’s group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh? It’s you? Last time our lord spared you once—you dare return? You truly seek death!” Migen was startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier, their lord had merely said Yueyue detected a tribal force attacking the castle at night—but hadn’t revealed their identities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, it was clear: at least three or four were tribal heirs they’d once kidnapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Iron Claw—is that them?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Freya—they’re Gervas’s knights!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Freya clenched her silver teeth. “Then fight them—to uphold the tribe’s honor!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Freya charged ahead alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine—let’s fight them!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other tribal heirs and totem warriors followed close behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Meng and Iron Bear didn’t hesitate. “Kill!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, fifty savage warriors, alongside the knights and their squires, clashed with the enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tribal totem warriors were indeed strong—but against the savages, they were evenly matched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially now that ten of the savage warriors wore armor specially crafted by Gervas for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These armors were stitched together from captured, worn-out hides—but their defense far surpassed plain animal hides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the armored savages’ combat power multiplied severalfold. No matter how fiercely the totem warriors charged, they could not break the encirclement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And without a way out, the tribal savages were doomed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Meng’s knights launched sudden strikes, while archers rained hidden bolts—soon, the tribal savages were cut down almost entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it—we’ll fight to the death!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their totem warriors dwindle, the tribal heirs finally panicked and rushed forward to fight the savages to the death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As heirs, their strength surpassed ordinary totem warriors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lei Meng and Iron Bear gave them no chance—they immediately moved to intercept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Clang!* Lei Meng’s longsword struck Iron Claw’s blade clean from his grip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seizing Iron Claw’s unbalanced stance, he closed in swiftly and delivered a sharp palm strike to his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iron Claw grunted, his head lolled, and he collapsed unconscious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iron Bear lacked Lei Meng’s elegant finesse, but his spiked club swung with crushing force. After a few blows, he smashed the heir to the ground, stepped forward two paces, and kicked him out of the fray—where guards swarmed and seized him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Iron Claw! Rick!” Freya cried out in panic as she saw her two companions captured, pulling the whistle from around her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Squeak!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The low call echoed again—and moments later, the white-feathered owl appeared in midair above the back garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This white-feathered owl possessed sharp talons and a keen beak—its combat power rivaled that of a Bronze Knight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Freya summoned it to aid herself and her comrades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“White Cloud—help us!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Whoosh whoosh whoosh!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no sooner had she spoken than dozens of grappling hooks shot down from above toward the white owl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking up, she saw over a dozen swift demons soaring above the white owl—unseen until now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Screech!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the constriction, the white owl instantly fought back, raging at the surrounding swift demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, one-on-one, the swift demons were no match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But ten-to-one—with human aid from above—they could slaughter the white owl in seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how it struggled, it couldn’t touch a single feather of the swift demons—only to be pinned helplessly to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Rattle!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, another massive net dropped from above, binding the white owl tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, the white owl was utterly disabled, shrieking and wailing helplessly in midair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“White Cloud!” Freya cried out in anguish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But her concern came too late—without this sole ally, the remaining tribal totem warriors were about to be slaughtered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gervas now strolled forward calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grabbed Iron Claw by the collar. “Stop fighting—or I’ll kill him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah! It’s him—that treacherous Gervas!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Freya, that’s Gervas!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gasps erupted across the field—the tribal heirs previously kidnapped by Gervas shouted in recognition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Freya’s beautiful eyes locked onto Gervas with burning hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>",1000,"2026-06-20T22:44:02.338Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","5c2192f643c03bf71091395299d5375e5b93c2871da9f467a52ffa570d27e98b","warlord-starting-with-daily-intelligence-chapter-215","warlord-starting-with-daily-intelligence-chapter-213",521,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarlord-starting-with-daily-intelligence-cover.jpg"]
