As the saying goes, a defeat is like a mountain. Even the most elite army will collapse like a violent tide at the moment of collapse. There is no possibility of recovery.
The rafts that had already crossed the river halfway began to row back desperately.
The most desperate ones were the thousands of Northern Principality guards who had boarded the river bank on Nalant's side. They started to retreat towards the river crying for their fathers and mothers.
But because there was no raft, it was not easy for them to evacuate.
Because many people couldn't swim, when they ran into the river in a hurry, they lost their balance and sank directly to the bottom of the river, and were immediately swept into the water.
"Is this...is this okay?" Faced with this situation, it only took a short ten seconds to go from the edge of defeat to the imminent victory.
This made two rich country men, Boris and Rey, stunned.
"Kill! Boris, Rael, what are you two guys doing standing still? All the enemies will be gone soon. Don't you want the spoils?" At this moment, Narant's roar was The direct transmission woke the two of them up.
Now is a good time to completely defeat the enemy. As long as the speed is fast enough, the team of ten thousand people will no longer have the possibility of counterattack.
Therefore, they must kill as soon as possible until the enemy becomes frightened and can no longer organize a counterattack.
"Oh! Yes, trophies, we need trophies! Kill!" Boris and Rael woke up one after another, and immediately raised their swords and began to call on their men to chase the fleeing enemies.
When Stella saw Nalant leading his men and starting to cross the stone wall towards the other side, she did not hesitate to call the surrounding tulip guards to follow.
…
"Don't run! Don't run, stop! I'll kill anyone who dares to run!" Huck's eyes were splitting at this moment, and the battle situation that was already a sure thing turned around in the weird roar.
Although there was a trace of uncertainty in his heart whether it was the blessing of the God of Glory.
But as the commander, he couldn't let the guards be defeated, otherwise once the follow-up team was trapped, their team of ten thousand people would be completely destroyed.
However, all the guards of the Northern Principality were frightened out of their courage at this moment. Even if he shouted to break his throat, it would be useless. He could not stop the thousands of defeated troops.
"Commander Harker, let's go! The enemy is coming!" At this moment, Deputy Commander Court came anxiously.
Court and others were luckier than the two captains on the bridge. They crossed the river on a raft according to their original plan.
When the raft was halfway through, they witnessed everything on the stone bridge.
Seeing that the situation was over and their guards abandoned their armor, they could only return quickly.
"Retreat? Where can we retreat? This time we have not completed the task assigned by His Majesty. How will we explain to His Majesty when we go back!" Huck said with red eyes.
"Captain Huck, if you don't leave, it will be too late!" Court knew that if he returned in defeat, he would definitely be held accountable by the king.
But now that the situation was over, if he continued to wait, he would be trapped in a tight siege. Moreover, the deafening explosion made him feel a little afraid in his heart.
"No, Court, you run away! As the commander-in-chief, I, Huck, cannot complete the mission assigned by His Majesty. Even if I return with the remaining defeated soldiers, I will surely die, and even my family will be harmed!"
"The plan prepared by the principality this time is too important and grand, but some problems have arisen here. Even if the king can spare me, other nobles will not!" Huck shook his head and gave up the idea of escape.
"Quick, the enemy commander is over there, Big Stone, Raymond, you continue to chase the enemy, my lord, Stella Vivian and I will deal with that commander!" At this moment, Huck and others heard a message. Came the shouts.
It turned out that Nalant and others had already crossed the stone bridge and immediately saw Huck, the enemy commander.
"Let's go, Court, bring back more imperial warriors!" Upon seeing this, Huck immediately pushed Court away.
"Yes, Lord Commander!"
Court gritted his teeth and finally left without looking back.
Although he is the deputy commander, he has a count father. Unlike Huck, who was promoted from a commoner to the commander-in-chief, even if he will be punished when he returns, at least he will not die.
After Court left, Huck drew his sword and waited for Nalant and others to arrive.
"Are you the commander of this northern principality army?" Nalant and Stella came to Huck.
"Huck Rhine, Commander-in-Chief of the Third Regiment of the Royal Guards of the Northern Principality, which family are you from?"
"We are from the Tulip family, Mr. Huck. Now the defeat is determined. As long as you are willing to hand over the sword, we will ensure your dignity. If someone in your principality is willing to pay a ransom to redeem you, we will also let you go safely. Go back!" Nalant responded to Huck.
"Haha, even though you have defeated my army, you are just a junior silver knight and a bronze knight trying to capture me? You think too highly of yourselves!"
"I, Huck, swear not to be a prisoner! Come on, let's see if you have what it takes!" Huck said with a sarcastic look on his face.
"If that's the case, then I'm offended!" Nalant always looked down upon a general who would rather die than surrender.
However, despite high expectations, since he chose to be an enemy, he would not be merciful.
"Let's go together!" Nalant didn't hesitate and directly greeted Stella and others.
At this moment, the enemy army was defeated, and Catherine, who was originally guarding a group of serfs in the camp, also arrived at the scene. Nalant did not believe that with the strength of his three silver beginners plus Vivian, he could not solve this silver intermediate.
"Okay! Nalant, be careful!" Stella was the first to respond. As she spoke, she directly raised her thin stabbing sword and stepped out, taking the lead in attacking.
She didn't know that Nalant had broken through yet, so she thought that she was the main force at this moment, and she was naturally at the forefront.
"Stella, be careful!" Nalant didn't dare to neglect when he saw this, and immediately followed her.
Then came Catherine and Vivian.
Vivian directly nocked the arrow.
Whizzing!
The next moment, arrows wrapped in red light appeared in the field.
"Is this an extraordinary archer?" Huck's original attention was focused on Stella and Nalant, but when he saw the red arrow, his expression immediately became solemn.
At this stage of his life, ordinary arrows no longer pose much of a threat to him. Not only can he easily dodge them, but even if he is hit, they will have no lethality as long as they are not in the eyes.
But the arrows of the extraordinary archer were not only extremely fast, but also powerful, and even he did not dare to ignore them.
when!
Huck directly drew his sword and blocked the whizzing arrows.
He blocked one of them, and casually relied on his body to dodge the third one.
However, in a blink of an eye, Stella's attack had already arrived.
"Blade of Frost!" The long sword in Stella's hand suddenly erupted with cold light, pointing directly at Huck's heart.
Huck was not afraid at all, he quickly raised his feet and took two steps back, while at the same time returning to defense with the sword in his hand.
when!
"Howling and slashing!"
Huck is worthy of being a silver knight. After blocking Stella's attack, he took advantage of the situation and directly knocked Stella's sword away. Then he slashed with his sword horizontally and turned the defense into an attack, directly hitting Stella's ribs.
"Your Excellency, it is not good to bully a woman!" Just when Stella was about to retreat, Nalant was already approaching.
"Three slashes with flaming swords!" Immediately, Nalant's long sword struck at Huck's long sword.
"Narant, be careful!" Stella was not surprised when she saw this, but her expression changed drastically and she warned Narant.
Nalant couldn't even resist her attack at the beginning, and this Hack Silver Intermediate Level was even more difficult for Nalant to contend with.
when!
However, what surprised Stella was that as soon as she finished speaking, Nalant's sword steadily blocked Huck's blow.
Although it looks a little strenuous, it is no weaker than her in terms of strength, and is even half as fast as her.
"Nalant, are you a junior silver knight?" Stella's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.
"Hehe, yes Stella!" Nalant didn't even respond, and continued to attack Huck.
Stella pursed her lips slightly, her beautiful eyes flashed on Nalant's back for a moment, and then she joined the battle again.
Next, four people surrounded Huck.
Originally, Huck thought that his mid-level silver strength was more than enough to deal with two junior silver knights and two bronze knights.
But as the battle progressed, he discovered that he was completely wrong.
Just when Huck was concentrating on dealing with Stella and Nalant, Catherine, who had already circled behind him, suddenly took action.
Catherine stabbed his thigh with a sword at an extremely fast speed.
Huck originally thought that Catherine was just a small bronze beginner, and could easily dodge her attacks even if she didn't defend herself.
But when he heard the sound that broke through the air and thought about it, he knew he was wrong.
But now it's too late to react.
puff!
A sharp pain suddenly shot through Huck's thigh, and Catherine's sharp stiletto sword penetrated his thigh directly.
Whoosh!
boom!
At this time, Vivian's arrow also took the opportunity to shoot into his chest.
Suddenly a small hole was blasted out of the thick iron armor.
"Death!!" Huck knew he was doomed.
At this last moment, he did not defend himself against the attacks of Nalant and Stella, but traded his life for his life to stab Stella with the final blow.
Because he remembered Stella's identity from the name Nalant called Stella before.
If he had killed the heir to the count before he died, he would have lessened his guilt.
"Be careful!" Nalant didn't bother to attack when he saw this, and immediately hit Stella hard.
Creak!
puff!
The next moment, Stella was knocked up and escaped the attack, but Nalant's armor was stabbed with a big hole by Huck.
Poof!
When Catherine and Vivian saw that their master was injured, they did not hesitate to attack the defenseless Huck's neck.
Following two popping sounds, two bloody holes, one large and one small, appeared on Huck's neck.
Then, Huck stared and fell to the ground.
"Narant, are you okay?" After Stella reacted, she had no time to pay attention to Huck, who was already lying on the ground, and came to Narant with an anxious face.
"It's okay, it's okay! Small injury!" Nalant covered his ribs with his hands and waved his hands towards Stella.
"Nonsense, it's all bleeding!" At this moment, Stella was as panicked as a little girl. When she saw the blood oozing out of Nalant's ribs, she even anxiously began to help Nalant take off his armor.
"Sir, I'm going to find Winnie!" Vivian also stepped forward to help at this time, and Catherine saw this and returned to the camp at an extremely fast speed.
Soon, Nalant's armor was taken off with the combined efforts of Stella and Vivian.
When the location of the wound inside appeared before their eyes, the two women finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The sword did hit Nalant, but unfortunately the position was too far. It only scratched the surface of Nalant's ribs and did not damage the internal organs at all.
"Narant, don't do this again!" Although it was just a scratch on the skin, Stella still nervously took out a silk scarf from her arms and pressed it on Narant's wound.
At the same time, he warned in a solemn tone: "I can actually dodge that sword. Even if I can't dodge, I can still avoid the vital point. And you may have taken a big risk by doing this!"
"Uh...Okay!" Looking at Stella's watery eyes, Nalant wanted to retort, 'As long as you don't die on the spot, Master, I have Winnie here, so I'm not afraid of any injuries. '
But it was not easy to expose Winnie's affairs now, so he could only grit his teeth and endure it.
"Yeah!" After receiving Nalant's response, Stella stopped talking and looked at Nalant with burning eyes.
"Narant, when did you break through the Silver Knight? Was it you who caused the riot of fire-attribute fighting spirit last night?" Stella was so smart that she immediately recalled last night from the moment Narant suddenly became the Silver Knight. It was so unusual that I couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"Uh..." Nalant was stopped by the question. He wanted to deny it, but it was a bit difficult to lie in the face of such scorching eyes.
Why don't you make up a plot to get the natural and earthly treasures?
"Narant, you don't need to answer, I know you are very special!" While Narant was still hesitating, Stella's lips slightly raised. In fact, she already knew the answer, and immediately gave it to Narant. .
And the words 'very special' combined with the burning eyes have a different meaning.
As for what it means, it is self-evident. '
'
In the 21st century, where the previous life was open, if a girl looked at you with burning eyes and said to you, "You are special," what would that mean to you?
"Should I stretch out my majestic arms at this moment, then hug Stella's waist... then look at her affectionately... and then push her against the wall?"
Narant couldn't help but think of the scenes in his previous life, as if movies were always shown like this, and he also had the same urge now.
"But Vivian is still here..."
Nalant couldn't help but glance at Vivian beside him.
After seeing that Nalant's injury was not serious, Vivian had already taken two steps back to leave space for Stella and Nalant, but her eyes were still on him, which made Nalant hesitate.
"How about giving it a try? As long as I'm not embarrassed, there won't be any problem if Vivian sees it."
