Anthony was stunned when he heard that. The empire's intelligence work is too bad. I have already conquered six cities in the north, but they still don't know that I am the leader of the rebel army? Is it because there is too much internal chaos that they don't have time to care about it, or someone deliberately hid it?
The person in front of him seemed to know him, but Anthony couldn't recognize this guy because he had lost his memory. He couldn't remember anything until now. It was probably a guy he knew in the main city, but it seemed that the other party's relationship with him wasn't very good. Even if it was, Anthony wouldn't show mercy.
"Quickly dismount and surrender, and I will spare your life." Anthony pointed to Adelaide on the opposite side and said.
"Bullsh * t!" Adelaide immediately refused. "My head is here. Take it if you can!"
"Then don't blame me." Seeing that it was impossible for Adelaide to surrender, Anthony instantly had a murderous intent. He pointed to the Scorching Sun Team behind him and said, "Crush them."
"Kill!"
The 5,000 Heavy Cavalry moved instantly and rushed toward Adelaide's 500 guards. Anthony, who was at the front, had already aimed at the leader, Adelaide. The Greatsword Rose in his hand was ready to drink blood.
"Shoot!" Everyone in the guards on this side was equipped with a crossbow. Adelaide waved his hand, and everyone immediately raised their crossbows. A rain of arrows rained down on the Scorching Sun Team.
"Ah!" "Woo …"
This rain of arrows was indeed effective. Dozens of knights were immediately hit by the arrows. Some people immediately fell from their warhorses, and some people were only slightly injured. However, it also affected their charge. Anthony waved his sword to block the arrows that were shot at him. He looked back and saw that they had lost about 20 people.
"Charge forward. Don't give them a chance to shoot again!" The shortcoming of the crossbow was that it took a long time to reload. Anthony was also very clear about this, so he immediately shouted to the back.
"Kill!" The Scorching Sun Team behind him roared again and immediately accelerated the speed of the charge. The two troops were not far from each other. Now that they accelerated, the Scorching Sun Team had already rushed to the front of the guards. Half of the guards on this side still hadn't reloaded their arrows.
"Draw your sword and face the enemy!" Seeing that he couldn't shoot a second round, Adelaide could only bite the bullet and shout. Although the infantry basically had no chance of winning against the cavalry, he no longer thought about winning now. As long as he could delay the time and let Ed run away, he would be considered to be loyal to Firmus.
The bodyguards immediately threw away the crossbows in their hands and pulled out their swords. Then, they raised their shields to defend against the enemy's charge. However, it was still the same thing. Shields alone could not stop the charge of heavy cavalry. After only one contact, the bodyguards in the front were knocked into the air by the cavalrymen of the Burning Sun Squad. The defensive line was almost torn apart in an instant.
"Take my sword!" On this side, Anthony had already aimed at Adelaide in the middle of the team. He directly raised his sword and rushed toward Adelaide. At the same time, his body began to emit a strong red light, and even the sword began to slowly overflow a faint flame.
"Flame fighting aura …" Adelaide naturally knew what it was. It was the famous unique skill of the former Marshal of the Empire, Mofas. As expected, his son, Anthony, had also inherited his bloodline. Judging from the quality of this flame fighting aura, it was almost on par with Mofas'.
"Come on!" Anthony directly swung his sword forward, and a red sword aura shot directly at Adelaide. Along the way, as long as it encountered soldiers who used shields to block, it would immediately cut these soldiers in half together with their shields. It pierced through 6 soldiers in a row, and the power of the sword aura was still undiminished. It flew straight in front of Adelaide.
Adelaide's reaction was extremely fast. He directly jumped off his warhorse. He didn't even think about blocking the sword aura because he couldn't do it with his strength. Sure enough, when he looked back, his warhorse had been cut in half by the sword aura. The power of the sword aura on this side was still undiminished, and it continued to fly behind him to harvest heads.
"You can't escape!" Anthony didn't stop here. After waving a sword aura, he continued to charge on his warhorse. In an instant, he came to Adelaide and slashed at Adelaide with his sword.
"Ding". At the critical moment, Adelaide raised his sword and barely caught this blow, but almost instantly, he heard the burning sound from his sword. He looked up and saw that the red light emitted from the opponent's sword had begun to melt the sword in his hand. In a few seconds, his sword would be melted into two pieces.
At the moment of life and death, Adelaide also began to fight desperately. He shouted, "Go away!" His body also emitted a white light, and he shook off Anthony's long sword. At the same time, he turned around and slashed with his sword. His target was Anthony's warhorse, wanting to knock him off his horse first.
"Okay!" Anthony smiled confidently. He exerted force, and the long sword that was bounced off slashed toward Adelaide again.
"Puchi" "Puchi" "Puchi", there were two sounds of flesh being cut. Adelaide did hit Anthony's warhorse, but Anthony's long sword also slashed into the opponent's right shoulder. Of course, he was slashing toward the opponent's head, but Adelaide slightly dodged at the last moment, so he didn't directly kill the opponent.
"Si" the burning sound sounded. The long sword that was still inserted in Adelaide's right shoulder began to emit a huge heat. In an instant, Adelaide's right shoulder began to emit a burnt smell and meat smell. A heart-wrenching pain almost made Adelaide faint, but Adelaide still barely held it. He swung his long sword at Anthony's sword. At the same time, he lowered his body, took the opportunity to pull out his sword, and rolled to the side.
With a loud bang, the warhorse under Anthony's crotch directly lost its balance. Since it was charging, the whole horse directly fell forward, and Anthony was immediately thrown out. However, Anthony was fine. He turned around in the air and stood on the ground with a "pa" sound.
Since the Scorching Sun Team was originally charging behind Anthony, now that Anthony landed, if the Scorching Sun Team behind him rushed forward, they might even step on Anthony. However, the Scorching Sun Team here was an experienced elite force. How could they make such a mistake? Seeing Anthony in front fell off his horse, the Scorching Sun Team behind him instantly turned to the right and continued to reap heads from the side.
"It's a bit interesting." Anthony said with a smile, "But it ends here."
"Anthony … I didn't expect it to be you in the end … I really didn't expect it … Hahahaha …" Adelaide began to laugh wildly as if he was crazy.
"Die!" Anthony moved in an instant. He rose a few meters from the ground, raised his greatsword in the air, and slashed at Adelaide below.
Adelaide raised his head. Anthony, who was emitting red light, was like the second sun in the sky. Adelaide felt dizzy just by looking at him. Despite the severe pain, Adelaide barely raised the sword in his hand and prepared to block again.
"Ding", the long sword in Adelaide's hand was directly cut into two. Anthony's sword passed through and slashed into Adelaide's face. The slash went directly from his face to his stomach. The place that was slashed by the long sword was immediately burned black.
"Ugh … Ugh …" Adelaide groaned twice. His legs went soft, and he knelt directly on the ground. The broken sword in his hand also fell to the ground.
"Is the slash too shallow?" Anthony saw that the opponent was still alive after such a slash. It seemed that his judgment of the distance was slightly wrong, but it was over. The opponent had no ability to resist.
"It seems that you are also a general of the empire, but it's a pity that you can't beat me in terms of strength. In terms of military strategy, you and my brother Huailin are too far apart. You should die in peace in the hands of both of us." As Anthony spoke, he slowly raised his long sword and aimed at Adelaide's neck in front of him.
"Wait …" As he was about to make a move, Anthony suddenly heard a person's shout. Of course, Anthony would ignore ordinary people, but he recognized that this voice was the voice of his brother, Li Huailin. He immediately stopped and turned his head to look. Li Huailin also led the Sharp Swords team to the middle of the battlefield.
Li Huailin waved to the surrounding Sharp Swords team members, signaling them to go ahead and harvest the enemy's head. He rode directly to Anthony's side.
"What's wrong? Is this guy still useful?" Anthony turned his head and asked, "But he has been slashed to this extent. Even if he surrenders, he can't go to the battlefield."
"It's useless. I'm just here to snatch a kill. He needs to develop in the later stages. Hurry up and give me a kill," said Li Huailin.
"Ai?" Anthony was slightly stunned, but he immediately smiled. "Why do you always take a long time to understand what you mean? Forget it. Go ahead and kill him …"
"Okay, watch me …" After Li Huailin finished speaking, he stabbed at Adelaide, who could no longer move on the ground.
− 961. With one slash, Adelaide screamed, but he was still alive.
"D * mn, why is this guy so hard?" Li Huailin's maximum HP was already close to 1,800, yet he had lost over 900 HP from attacking this guy. The level gap was just too big. Fortunately, the opponent was just a punching bag. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to defeat him.
"Again, again." Knowing that his attack power was low, Li Huailin directly attacked Adelaide. After about ten seconds, Li Huailin on this side finally persevered and stabbed the opponent to death.
