Charge!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kill!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Spear formation, advance!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kill!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the light cavalry and spear infantry waiting outside the gate began their move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, the light cavalry surged into the camp, followed by the spear infantry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No further orders from Gervas were needed—the light cavalry and spear formations automatically pushed deeper into the camp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They needed to link up with Lei Meng and the others in the rear garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gervas immediately prepared to follow the troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My lord!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a dark shadow darted forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Akali!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gervas’s heart tightened—he had completely missed Akali’s arrival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when her voice reached him did he notice her standing beside an orc tent over ten meters away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this was normal—after all, she was an assassin; if she had no such skills, she’d be dead long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, at this distance of ten meters, he could certainly detect her if she drew closer to seven or eight meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he was a Silver Knight, with a touch of spiritual energy—he wasn’t someone easily killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, against a Night Elf, even this distance gave him only two or three breaths to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he reacted too slowly, Akali would surely strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, other Silver Knights who hadn’t consumed the Wisdom Fruit and lacked spiritual energy had only one or two breaths at most!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In comparison, Gervas was already far stronger than other Silver Knights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I still need to improve further!” Of course, human desire is never satisfied—Gervas didn’t consider two or three breaths enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Akali, weren’t you with Lei Meng and the others in the rear garden? How’s the situation there?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Akali stepped forward slowly, her beautiful eyes scanning Gervas intently, as if seeing him for the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze lingered especially on his spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lord Gervas, Knight-Leader Lei Meng’s side is going smoothly—they don’t need my help. So I went to the camp’s core and uncovered some intelligence, and came straight to tell you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I just saw you using this spear—it was truly magnificent! Your spear technique is unlike any I’ve seen, so elegant… like… like dancing! Yes! Exactly like dancing!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Also, your footwork is strange—it feels familiar to me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, Akali had arrived near the battlefield as soon as Gervas began fighting and had watched his entire spear duel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing his spear technique and footwork completely shattered her previous understanding of the spear as a weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, spears were either used by soldiers like Gervas in formation to repel attacks,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>or were simply the domain of peasant conscripts, since spears and lances were cheap and easy to master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Gervas’s combat style had transformed the spear into a weapon of intricate, sword-like techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for his footwork, others might have simply thought it reflected his agility and physical flexibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Akali clearly recognized its resemblance to many elven combat styles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was deeply curious where he had learned such footwork.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really? You think it’s good too? Thank you for noticing—I always thought this spear technique looked incredibly stylish!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s why I trained hard to master this second weapon, besides the sword!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the spear, Gervas couldn’t explain how he learned it—after all, in this world, some used axes, some used blades, even some used spiked clubs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But spears and lances were unquestionably the lowest-class weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he could only shrug it off with a flimsy excuse about wanting to look cool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His footwork, however, required no concealment—he told her exactly how he had learned it from the biography of the Zorro Elven Ranger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elven Ranger?” Akali’s eyes widened. “When I was young, I heard rumors of an elf from our race who loved adventure and combat, then traveled to the human world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whether his name was Zorro or not, I’m not sure!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a pause, Akali looked at Gervas with admiration. “Still, Lord Gervas, you’re truly remarkable!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even with a manual, learning elven techniques is incredibly difficult for ordinary humans!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you for your praise, Akali!” Gervas smiled faintly—if not for his intelligence network securing him various fruits, he’d never have mastered this graceful footwork.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, Akali, you said you uncovered some intelligence in the camp’s core—what was it?” After the small talk, Gervas finally turned to the matter at hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Akali snapped back to attention. “Lord Gervas! I went to the inner camp’s core and discovered there’s only one Wang Fei here…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What? Only one Wang Fei?” Gervas exclaimed in shock, frowning deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he had planned to use these Wang Fei as bargaining chips for his survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more Wang Fei, the better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Lord Gervas. Also, the orc chieftain named Pu La Da has hidden the orc Wang Fei away!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And the orc Wang Fei has just given birth to an orc Prince!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, they don’t know their every move was witnessed by me.” Akali allowed herself a faint smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Akali, you’ve done excellently!” Gervas praised without hesitation—her intelligence would spare him much trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah well, one is better than none! They say this Wang Fei, Su Ka Ma, is the orc King’s favorite—she’s still valuable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And she gave birth to a Prince—that adds another chip to our hand!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1136,"2026-06-20T22:44:02.688Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","56373d10064359499e1b59bc6961eb42cc5c986784c481eb713ed95838806192","warlord-starting-with-daily-intelligence-chapter-469","warlord-starting-with-daily-intelligence-chapter-467",521,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarlord-starting-with-daily-intelligence-cover.jpg"]
