Chapter 468: Capture the Royal Tent Palace!

"Uh... you..."

The orc leader's eyes widened, wanting to say something, but with his throat destroyed, he could only emit a wheezing, broken-bellows sound.

Gervas had no patience for chatter; he suddenly retracted the long spear in his hand.

Pfft!

The orc leader fell backward, then immediately began dancing the final breakdance of his orcish life on the ground.

The orc leader, deceased!

And with the death of the orc leader, the ordinary orcs that followed could no longer stir up much trouble.

This lord, Gervas, continued to lead the charge, his steps swift as wind, his spear technique like a dragon.

Those clumsy orcs often found themselves riddled with several bloody holes before they could even get close, falling into the pool of blood in disbelief.

Gervas alone eliminated twenty or thirty orcs, and with his subordinates also cutting down another twenty or thirty.

From then on, the orcs who had originally intended to block the way were thoroughly terrified, no longer daring to stand in their path, and retreated in all directions to hide.

"Open the gates immediately!"

Gervas did not delay; he held his long spear in a defensive stance while ordering his subordinates to open the gate.

Indeed, just as Gervas had predicted.

This magical gate could be opened from the inside without any difficulty; its method of opening was no different from that of an ordinary gate.

Another thing worth mentioning is that as the gate opened, Gervas also saw the thickness of this iron door.

He discovered it was merely a sheet of iron half a centimeter thick.

Therefore, the reason it could withstand the bombardment of cannons was indeed entirely due to the effect of magic.

"A fine thing!" Gervas was instantly tempted.

Taking this back to his own castle, the city gates would henceforth be as solid as metal.

Of course, matters regarding spoils of war would have to wait until this inner camp was completely taken.

"Storm Light Cavalry, for glory! Charge!"

"Kill!"

"Spear Phalanx, advance!"

"Kill!"

At this moment, the light cavalry and spear infantry who had been waiting long outside the gate also began their action.

First, the light cavalry surged into the camp, followed by the spear infantry.

Without Gervas needing to give any further orders, the light cavalry and spear infantry phalanxes automatically advanced deeper into the camp.

They needed to rendezvous with Lei Meng and the others in the back garden.

Gervas immediately prepared to follow the troops.

"My lord!"

Just then, a black shadow darted out.

"Akali!"

Gervas was secretly startled; he had not noticed Akali's arrival at first.

It was only when her voice came that he realized Akali was standing beside an orc tent more than ten meters away.

Of course, this was actually normal; after all, she was an assassin, and if she had no means, she would have died long ago.

Moreover, at a distance of more than ten meters, if she had approached to within seven or eight meters, Gervas would definitely have noticed.

After all, he was a Silver Knight and possessed some spiritual power; he was not someone who could be killed so easily.

However, at such a distance, facing a Night Elf, there was only a reaction time of two or three breaths.

If his reaction was slow, Akali would likely succeed.

Of course, other Silver Knights who had not consumed the Wisdom Fruit and possessed no spiritual power had at most one or two breaths of reaction time!

By calculation, Gervas was already far stronger than other Silver Knights.

"I must improve even more in the future!" Of course, the human heart is never satisfied; Gervas did not feel that a reaction time of two or three breaths was secure.

"Akali, were you not following Lei Meng and the others in the back garden? How is the situation there?"

Akali slowly stepped forward, her beautiful eyes scrutinizing Gervas intently, as if she were seeing him for the first time.

Her particular focus was on Gervas's long spear.

"Lord Gervas, the situation with Knight Commander Lei Meng and the others is proceeding very smoothly; they do not need my help, so I just went to the core of the camp to investigate a piece of news and came specifically to tell you!"

"However, I just saw you using this long spear; it was truly magnificent. You use your long spear differently from others, very beautifully, just like... just like dancing! Yes! Exactly like dancing!"

"Additionally, your footwork is also very peculiar, giving me a sense of déjà vu!"

It turned out that when Gervas had just begun fighting, Akali had already arrived nearby and witnessed the entire process of Gervas using his long spear to kill enemies.

Seeing Gervas's spear technique and footwork completely refreshed her previous understanding of the long spear as a weapon class.

In the past, long spears were either used by spear infantry like Gervas to resist enemy attacks through formation,

or were simply exclusive to peasant soldiers, because weapons like long spears and pikes were low-cost and easy to master.

But Gervas's combat style just now used the long spear like a longsword, employing various unique techniques for attack.

Additionally, regarding Gervas's footwork, others might only think it was due to Gervas's physical agility and high dexterity.

But Akali clearly saw that those footwork patterns shared similarities with many combat methods of the Elf race.

He was very curious about where Gervas had learned this footwork.

"Is that so? You think it's good too, Akali? Thank you for your appreciation; actually, I also think using this long spear should be very cool!"

"So, I practiced hard before and learned this second weapon besides the longsword!"

As for this thing called the long spear, Gervas could not explain well the reason for his learning it, after all, in this world there are those who use axes, those who use swords, and even those who use morning stars.

Yet only the spear and the halberd were absolutely the lowest-grade weapons.

So, he could only go with the flow and brush it off as a mere display of coolness.

As for his own footwork, Gervas had no need to conceal it; he directly explained how he had derived the technique from that Zorro the Elf Ranger autobiography.

"Elf Ranger?" Akali's beautiful eyes widened. "When I was young, I seem to have heard that our Elf Clan had an elf who loved adventure and combat, then went to the Human World to adventure."

"As for whether his name was truly Zorro, I am not clear!"

Pausing for a moment, Akali looked at Gervas with admiration. "However, my lord Gervas, in any case, you are truly amazing!"

"After all, even with a secret manual, given our Elf Clan's techniques, it is truly difficult for an ordinary human to learn them!"

"Is that so? Many thanks for your praise, Akali!" Gervas smiled slightly; if it were not for the intelligence system helping him find various fruits, he truly would not have learned this graceful footwork.

"By the way, Akali, you just said you discovered some intelligence in the core of that camp that you need to tell me?" After the idle chat concluded, Gervas finally turned to the matter at hand.

Akali immediately snapped back to attention. "My lord Gervas! I just went to the inner camp core and discovered that there is only one Wang Fei within this camp..."

"What, only one Wang Fei?" Gervas immediately exclaimed, his eyebrows knitting together.

After all, he had prepared to use these Wang Feis as life-saving bargaining chips.

Thus, the greater the number of Wang Feis, the better.

"Yes, my lord Gervas. Additionally, just now, that orc chieftain named Prada has already taken the orc Wang Fei and hidden!"

"By the way, there is also the orc prince just born to the orc Wang Fei!"

"Of course, what they do not know is that I have taken in all their every move with my own eyes." Akali felt slightly proud!

"Akali, you have done very well!" Gervas did not stint on praise; Akali's information could spare him much trouble.

"Sigh! One is one! It is said that this so-called Sukama Wang Fei is a Wang Fei very cherished by the Beast King; her weight should still be considerable."

"Additionally, she has also given birth to a prince; this also counts as adding one more bargaining chip!"
