Before Han Shuo joined the Northern Guard, this lightning archmage named Kiriya was the leader of the Northern Guard's magic department. However, due to Han Shuo's appearance, he had no choice but to listen to Han Shuo's orders.
Originally, Kiriya was a bit unwilling, but after Boris spoke to him privately, he immediately understood that Han Shuo had only joined the Northern Guard to accumulate military merits. He knew that the magic department of the Northern Guard was only a springboard for Han Shuo. With this, not only did he not have any complaints, but he also purposely tried to curry favor with Han Shuo, hoping that when Han Shuo soared in the future, he would be able to help him.
"Be careful, there are over twenty people on the other side, and all of them are quite strong!" Han Shuo instructed the people behind him, then returned to Emily's side and reminded her softly.
"Understood, what do you think we should do?" Emily nodded and asked for Han Shuo's opinion.
"When the hundred knights surround the area, immediately use magic to destroy all the obstacles. Capture these twenty or so experts if possible, or kill them all. As long as we can find the blueprint, this mission will be considered complete!" Han Shuo thought for a moment and said lowly.
"Let's do as you say. The Northern Guard seems to trust you more. You need to command them well so they don't mess up!" In front of Han Shuo, Emily was already used to him being the leader and said obediently.
"Alright then. Pay attention to Yoland, don't let him escape!" Han Shuo replied as his body slowly floated into the air.
Han Shuo was like a ghost as his body quickly weaved through the knights and mages. Relying on the omnidirectional vision of the three yin demons, Han Shuo continuously issued orders to the knights around him, telling them to abandon their horses and hide in different directions. Over a hundred knights separated by a hundred and fifty meters, slowly surrounding the opposite side.
Standing proudly in the air, Han Shuo calmly commanded the knights and mages of the Northern Guard, arranging suitable people in every corner. Everyone softened their voices and slowly approached the dirty, dilapidated building.
Gradually, the hundred and fifty meter distance shrank as the encirclement shrank. When the two sides were only fifty meters apart, Han Shuo suddenly waved his hand at Kiriya and the others. When Kiriya and the others saw Han Shuo's movements, they immediately started chanting magic spells with solemn expressions.
"Sir, we've been surrounded. I've heard strange sounds!" A wind mage said anxiously to the tanned, tall, and muscular Yoland, who was riding a Violent Tattoo Beast.
"How is this possible!" Yoland, who was resting, abruptly sat up amidst a pile of weeds and hurriedly looked out the window. His expression changed drastically as he bellowed, "Everyone, gather! Find an opportunity to break out!"
In this room, a group of more than 20 people calmly stood up when they heard this. One by one, they drew their swords and sabers and prepared to break out of this place.
As the leader, Yoland remained calm in the face of such a predicament. His space ring glowed faintly as he took out the blueprint that he had painstakingly obtained and carefully placed it in a crack in the wall. Yoland said in a low voice, "The brothers that have come this time are not afraid of death. I will place the blueprint in that crack in the wall. If any of you are able to leave alive, you can wait until Ossen City is no longer on guard and come back to take the blueprint back to the empire. Do you understand?"
"Don't worry, sir. We know what to do!" The Wind Magician replied solemnly. The other people in the room all had resolute expressions on their faces. They were already prepared to sacrifice themselves.
Suddenly, five bolts of lightning struck down from the sky. The zigzagging lightning illuminated the pitch-black night sky. A few walls of fire appeared around the room. The scorching heat assaulted them head-on. The earth began to rumble and tremble as sharp spikes abruptly appeared.
Yoland and the others in the room understood that the attack had begun. They all jumped out from the windows and doors one by one. Under the attacks of the lightning, fire, snakes, and earth spikes, they scattered and began to break out of the encirclement.
"Kill!" Han Shuo's cold voice resounded throughout the night sky.
Kiliya's lightning bolts crashed down, bombarding the houses and causing them to explode one by one. Two assassins who had rushed out were struck by a bolt of lightning, their bodies convulsing and collapsing on the spot.
The hundred knights of the Northern Guard were all elites of the army, and all of them possessed the strength of a novice or intermediate knight. Under Han Shuo's orders, they all lined up in an orderly fashion to block off the road. As soon as they discovered anyone charging in their direction, they would immediately and unceremoniously intercept them.
"Send three knights from the north to stop them. Kiriya, send four experts from the Ministry of Magic to attack the south. Yoland is in the west. He's a Sky Knight. Those in the west, be careful … "
Using the vision of the three yin demons, Han Shuo calmly commanded. He was always able to accurately estimate the strength and number of the enemy and send out the corresponding experts to intercept the assassins.
Under Han Shuo's commands, Emily and Chester slowly approached the direction of Yoland's charge. As a thief, Chester wasn't strong in direct combat. Thus, he stayed with the knights in that direction to intercept them. Emily stood behind the knights, ready to attack with dark magic at any time.
"Damn it, how did the enemy know our movements so well!" Yoland had everyone spread out. At the beginning, they had targeted some of the weaker areas and used their strongest forces to launch a surprise attack. Unfortunately, before they could even get close, the originally sparsely populated areas suddenly became heavily guarded, and the attackers ended up badly battered and bleeding.
Under Han Shuo's orders, the mages had released magic in unclear directions. However, they were often able to beat Yoland's men into a sorry state, severely injuring or killing those who had wanted to take advantage of the situation to launch a sneak attack in the dark.
"I didn't see anyone release the Sky's Eye. I don't know how the enemy can grasp our movements so clearly!" The wind mage appeared to be extremely anxious and frantic as he quickly said in a panicked voice.
"Everyone, if you think that you can easily escape after committing a crime in the Lancelot Empire, I think you are gravely mistaken. Heh heh, we all know who you are. As long as you put down your weapons, surrender, and reveal your identities to us, we can spare your lives and wait for the negotiators of your empire to come. "Han Shuo gave out a series of orders and spoke with a smile.
Through the observation of the yin demons, Han Shuo had a clear grasp of their movements. Then, he had arranged reasonable experts to intercept them according to their strength. He had successfully killed more than twenty assassins, and only thirteen were left. Due to Han Shuo's reasonable commands, the Northern Guard only had four lightly injured and one heavily injured from the enemy's counterattack. Other than that, no one had died.
However, what responded to Han Shuo was an even more fearless charge. Not a single one of these Angela Empire assassins showed the slightest hesitation. After Han Shuo's words, they fiercely tried to charge out of the encirclement.
From their reactions and strength, Han Shuo could deduce that they were all deathsworn. They had probably never thought of living since they entered the Lancelot Empire. It was basically unrealistic to capture these kinds of people alive. Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, Han Shuo suddenly said, "Everyone, don't hold back. Kill them all!"
"Brothers, do your best to charge out. Even if you can't, at least drag a few down with you!" Yoland suddenly shouted when he heard Han Shuo's merciless command.
"You have no chance!" Emily's voice was cold. Her eyes under the black robe stared at Yoland and said, "There were more than ten technicians in the factory. They were all powerless civilians. They were all brutally killed. You all deserve to die today!"
"Haha, you're not from our empire. If you die, then so be it!" Yoland laughed wildly. He raised his double-edged broadsword and charged straight at Emily while riding on the Tattoo Beast he was riding. He laughed wildly and said, "Woman, do you dare to stop me alone?"
"You're courting death!" Before Emily could chant an incantation, Han Shuo arrived at lightning speed. A thick killing intent spread out in an instant. The Demonslayer Edge radiated red light in all directions. The blood-red sword aura swallowed and spat. Han Shuo gripped the Demonslayer Edge and slashed it down at Yoland from above.
Yoland, who'd been charging towards Emily, hadn't thought that Han Shuo would fly over and attack from above. Although he had the strength of a sky knight, it was still a bit strenuous for him to face such a sudden attack. He'd been holding his broadsword horizontally, but now he hurriedly raised it to meet the Demonslayer Edge above his head.
Clang!
Sparks flew in all directions, and an obvious crack appeared on Yoland's broadsword. His shoulder trembled, and he groaned. The Violent Pattern Beast beneath him couldn't withstand the gravity, and its four short legs broke with a "Creak" sound. The Violent Pattern Beast fell to the ground, and its wolf-like head continuously spat out blood.
"Haha, even if you kill me, don't even think about getting the blueprints. All the technicians have been killed. Without the blueprints, you still won't be able to make the chariot! " Yoland first looked at the Tattoo Beast beneath him with grief, then laughed wildly with a malevolent expression. He had no way to attack Han Shuo who was standing proudly in the air and could only quickly run towards Emily.
"Isn't it just hiding in a crack in the wall? How hard can it be to find!" Han Shuo said disdainfully. When Yoland's face changed greatly, Han Shuo didn't bother with Yoland and rushed towards the room they'd been hiding in like lightning.
