Chapter 242: One Against Three?!

~7 min read 1,252 words

"Damn it! How could this happen!"

Hearing the distant screams, Viscount Pa Ke turned deathly pale.

The more euphoric he had been a moment ago, the more desperate he was now.

Those light cavalrymen, stripped of their speed enhancement, were no different from ordinary soldiers when facing the barbarians.

In fact, due to spatial constraints, it was even harder for them to dodge the barbarians' spiked maces.

With a single blow, light cavalrymen were smashed down, their armor shattered and bones crunching loudly.

By now, there was no doubt; those light cavalrymen were doomed.

But... but why was this happening?

Why had Gervas set up tripwires in advance?

And where had he found these barbarians?

Don't the barbarians dislike the human race too? Why would they fight for Gervas?

Countless questions filled Pa Ke's mind.

At this moment, he regretted it!

He regretted listening to Minister Weilade's instigation.

He had originally thought that with the light cavalry and Lord Adani's strength, they could easily deal with that damn Gervas.

As for Adani... wait! Lord Adani is still alive and has already started fighting!

In that instant, Pa Ke saw the aura light that only a Silver Knight could possess shining on the distant battlefield.

This instantly gave a glimmer of hope to his heart, which had already plummeted to the bottom.

Adani is a Silver Knight; as long as he can defeat that Silver Knight Gervas, then today's battle outcome is not yet decided!

Thinking this, Pa Ke hesitated not at all. "Quick, you two go support the battlefield as well! Tell Kieran and Bell to deal with that Gervas and his knights no matter what!"

"Yes, my lord!"

The two Bronze Guardian Knights, who had been responsible for protecting Pa Ke, were also dispatched.

The two had originally been Pa Ke's final guarantee of safety.

But now, Pa Ke could not care less about that.

Because he had already regarded this as the only chance to turn the tables.

And very quickly, those two Bronze Knights arrived at the battlefield.

The two of them, plus the two vassals Kieran and Bell, along with Adani and the light cavalry captain, made a total of six titled knights.

On the other hand, on Gervas's side, besides himself, only Lei Meng was a titled knight.

Oh right, Wizard Isabella and Mage Wood had also arrived at the battlefield.

Wizard Isabella stood with Knight Mi Gen and the other four Great Knights, facilitating mutual cooperation in battle.

Meanwhile, Wood hid alone within the jungle.

Of course, this was Gervas's arrangement for him, letting Wood launch a surprise attack on the strongest enemy.

That is, the Silver Knight currently fighting Lei Meng.

As long as this Silver Knight was defeated, this battle would be completely settled.

However, now that Pa Ke's subsequent subordinates had arrived with reinforcements, the pressure on Storm Manor suddenly increased.

Absolutely cannot let these titled knights interfere with Lei Meng's fight!

Thinking this, Gervas immediately ordered: "Isabella, Mi Gen, you two tie up those two of Pa Ke's vassals; the rest I will handle!"

"My lord, isn't that too dangerous? How about we tie up three of them?" Mi Gen was full of worry.

His lord's combat talent was indeed very high.

But no matter what, it was impossible to fight three opponents alone after advancing to Bronze Knight for less than a year.

But Gervas's mind was made up. "Stop talking nonsense, this is an order! Do you want to disobey?!"

Although Mi Gen, the five Great Knights, plus Wizard Isabella, could indeed tie up three Bronze Knights simultaneously.

But it would require taking greater life risks, with a high possibility of casualties.

So, it was better to let them help tie up two of them, while leaving the other three for himself.

He could also test the power of his Swift Body Technique.

Immediately, Gervas delayed no longer; his figure surged forward, charging toward three of the titled knights. Because of Gervas's stern attitude, Mi Gen and the others could only follow orders and quickly tie up Kieran and Bell, the two vassals of Pa Ke.

This immediately turned the situation into Gervas fighting three opponents alone.

This scene made Adani himself unable to help but feel surprised.

Moments later, he showed a mocking smile. "You, this lord, are truly foolish. Even if the situation was worse, your Storm Manor was still in an unbeatable position."

"But he actually chose to charge to the very front of the battle circle, wanting to fight three alone! Does he think he is a heroic knight? Haha, now he is doomed!"

"And as long as he dies, then you lot will immediately collapse and flee!"

Lei Meng glanced at his lord's situation not far away; indeed, it was exactly as the opponent said, a very dangerous position!

However, Lei Meng could not afford to be distracted, because he knew the opponent's intention was not simply to mock, but to affect his state of mind.

Because the two of them were very close in strength, victory or defeat might depend on a single thought.

"Die!" Lei Meng gritted his teeth and swung his sword, attacking the opponent fiercely.

No matter what, the two of them, the Silver Knights, were the biggest uncertainty in today's battle.

As for his lord's side, he knew very well that his lord was a very wise noble and would not put his own life in danger.

The fact was indeed so; facing three Bronze Knights, Gervas was not afraid at all.

"Come on, don't just stand there staring. Do you still want to wait for dinner?"

"Noble, this is your own choice, so don't blame us!"

The three bronze knights, seeing this, had excited glints appear in their eyes.

If they killed Gervas right before their eyes, they would surely all receive rewards from the person behind them.

The three exchanged a glance, then simultaneously raised their swords to strike Gervas together.

With such a huge advantage, they didn't need much coordination at all.

The three split into left, center, and right paths, effectively flanking Gervas.

"Die!"

Three long swords flashed with cold light, directly sealing off Gervas' escape routes.

From now on, no matter how Gervas dodged or blocked, he would inevitably be struck by a sword slash.

If his ability were even worse, two slashes were also possible.

And if he were struck by one or two full-power slashes, even a Title Knight would suffer serious injuries.

Thinking of this, the corners of the three men's mouths couldn't help but curl up.

But just as they were fantasizing about the good times after killing this noble, a scene they never expected appeared!

The noble, who had been standing still as if stunned by fear, suddenly moved.

His figure was incredibly swift.

Moreover, instead of retreating, he advanced, rushing toward the three of them.

Then, with an incredibly unimaginable angle and movement, he actually... actually dodged past the gaps between them.

"This..."

The three repositioned themselves, quickly turned around, their long swords still held aloft, but shock already filled their eyes.

They saw Gervas, a smile on his lips, already behind them, watching them mockingly.

Gervas was now completely certain that the swift movement technique left by the elf Zorro was truly excellent.

Although the three bronze knights on the opposite side were numerous, their strength was no match for his own.

Therefore, after he unleashed the swift movement secret technique, they simply could not capture his figure!
