"I say." Rovak was completely oblivious to the approaching danger. In his opinion, how powerful could a young man be? He was a warrior of Toquinin and had attained Gold-tier combat strength more than a decade ago. Otherwise, he would not have been sent here to search for the Divine Artifact. Therefore, in the face of Brando's threat, he just smiled and said, "I want you to hand over the sword —"
Before he could finish his sentence, Brando had already shot towards him, leaving a black line in his wake. Then, the young lord raised his hand.
It was just one strike.
There was no military swordsmanship, no White Raven Sword Style, and Brando did not even use any fancy moves. The dark blade of the sword was like a meteor as it swung towards Rovak. The Golden Mane Lionmane Beastman's expression changed, and he immediately raised his sword to parry.
Unfortunately, what awaited him was Brando's [Strength Burst] and [Breakthrough]. Brando, in a fit of rage, used these two extremely exhausting skills without reservation for the first time.
The Master-level [Strength Burst] increased his strength by three times in an instant, pushing his strength to the peak of Gold-tier at 443 OZ. The Ghost Knight's crystal also increased his strength to the Elemental Realm by 30%.
Everyone saw that at that moment, Halran Gaia in Brando's hand bent automatically as if it was refracted in the air. Then, with a loud clang, it collided with Rovak's broadsword.
It was a sound that made one's teeth ache.
At that moment, time seemed to slow down. The tall Golden Lionmane Beastman watched as the broadsword in his hand bent to the limit, cracked, broke, and then shattered into pieces. The metal fragments shot back like steel needles and hit the Golden Lionmane Beastman.
Normally, these fragments would not be able to hurt his Gold-tier body. But at this moment, these steel needles seemed to contain the same power as they pierced into his body.
He screamed in pain.
But as soon as the scream came out of his mouth, it stopped abruptly.
The huge Lionmane Beastman had been swept away by a powerful force. Due to the force, his upper body was bent backward, and then his entire lower body was torn apart along with his spine. Then, with a swoosh, he dragged his broken legs and flew far away.
He shot into the forest, leaving a trail of blood behind him.
There was a muffled sound.
At this moment, the others finally recovered from their shock. The few lionmen standing closest to Rovak subconsciously unsheathed their swords, wanting to charge forward. Unfortunately, what awaited them was an even more tragic fate.
"Earth, give me your blade!" Brando roared.
A loud crash was heard.
With Brando's sword as the center, the ground a hundred meters in front of him instantly split open, and sharp rocks shot out from the ground. Like a storm, stalagmites that were two to three meters long and as thick as a bowl were formed out of thin air.
Along with a swooshing noise, the sword rocks spread out in all directions. Within a breath, a forest of sharp swords was formed, covering an area with a diameter of thousands of feet.
More than twenty Golden Mane Lionmane Beastmen were pierced like hedgehogs in an instant.
…
Patter.
The black-haired young alchemist, Rono, dropped a dagger on the ground. He was dumbfounded as he watched the scene unfold outside the forest.
Vahina, the noble lady with two ponytails, was even more shocked. There were still a few spots of blood on her white face, left behind by the Golden Mane Lionmane Beastman's corpse when it flew past her.
If it was any other time, Vahina would be disgusted to death. But now, she did not even have the courage to make a sound or blink her eyes.
Of the three, only Viscount Elman was slightly calmer, but when he saw that sword, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat. The only thought in his mind was that he was thankful that he didn't go looking for trouble with that guy himself.
He had seen Duke Veronica's swordsmanship before, but even though her swordsmanship was impressive, it still lacked the power to shock people.
When Brendel drew his sword, the unstoppable force was so strong that even though they were hundreds of meters away, they could almost feel the wind and rain of blood that assaulted their faces.
It was as if the sword had pierced through their hearts, causing their hearts to stop.
It was a kind of extreme pressure when faced with power.
"This … This …" Rono was almost speechless, "Sword and Curse dual cultivator …!"
Elman's expression also changed several times.
… …
However, the Erouine nobles around Brando were the ones whose expressions changed. They originally thought that Brendel was exaggerating when he said those words to them before, but they didn't expect him to do so.
But now, these people stood there as if they were petrified. Their expressions were strange, and no one could make a sound.
The fat Count Dolan who was lying on the ground opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but his voice was stuck in his throat for a long time.
Count Audine had been in a posture ready to draw his sword. He was prepared to attack if Brando's tone changed, but when he saw Brando draw his sword, he felt as if the sword in his hand weighed more than a thousand pounds. He could not pull it out no matter how hard he tried.
This guy was a noble of the Erouine?
Since when did the Erouine have such a crazy person?
Brando maintained his posture for almost two seconds before he let out a sigh of relief. Using Power Burst and Charge at full strength consumed too much energy. If it were not for his innate talent, he would have been frozen for more than two seconds.
But even so, not a single Golden Mane Lionmane Beastman dared to surround him while he was frozen.
They could still accept the fact that Shi Feng had killed Varok with a single slash, but the terrifying Gaia Blade was simply too terrifying. Nearly a hundred meters of the ground was instantly lifted up, and countless stone teeth rose from the ground. This scene shocked everyone to their very core.
A Demon Warrior?
Or a Sword and Curse dual cultivator?
Brando put down Halran Gaia, and the stone teeth that rose from the ground disintegrated and turned into dust. He then coldly looked at the Golden Mane Lionmane Beastmen who wanted to surround him but were scared off.
Hundreds of Golden Mane Lionmane Beastmen formed a crescent around him, but no one dared to take a step forward.
"When the late King Erik was still alive, he would never have thought that one day his descendants would be mocked by a group of beasts." Brando turned around and looked at the emissaries of the Erouine Empire and said, "The glory of the Erouine Empire's lost flag, the shining glory that flew on the battlefield of the past, do you think you can pick it up?"
Brando's voice was not loud. It could be said that his tone was flat.
However, the nobles realized that they could not say a single word of rebuttal, whether it was the fat man on the ground, Count Audine, or the female scholar.
Dolant looked at the Golden Mane Lionmane Beastman of Toquinin, and then looked at Brando. He was unwilling to admit defeat, but he could not say a word.
The female scholar lowered her head and did not answer.
Only Audine silently drew his sword.
At this time, the surviving Golden Mane Beastman finally reacted. Although Brando's sword had shocked everyone present, it had also revealed his strength.
Gold-tier —
Although the strength of a Gold-tier warrior in his early twenties was shocking, it did not change the balance of power on the battlefield. One or two Gold-tier warriors could not change the situation. The Golden Mane Beastman knew that there were at least hundreds of Silver-tier warriors behind him, not to mention that he and his captain were also Gold-tier warriors.
Among the humans, only this young man and Count Audine were Gold-tier warriors. The others were not even worth mentioning.
The Golden Mane Beastman thought. He had to end the battle before the druids arrived. "Kill them! Avenge Lord Rovak! "
It let out a roar.
The roar awakened all the Golden Mane Beastmen. After a moment of commotion, the Golden Mane Beastmen once again surrounded them.
This time, however, they were not just facing Brando alone. The youths in the forest had already noticed the commotion when the emissaries of Erouine clashed with Brando. People like Carglise, who wanted to see the world in chaos, had already rushed over.
When Brando drew his sword, they knew that the battle was about to begin.
The sound of swords being unsheathed could be heard.
Count Audine walked to Brendel's back and tossed the scabbard aside. "Let's deal with these troubles first. There's a conflict here, and my men will be here soon. We just need to hold on for a while."
Brando replied without turning his head, "Hold on?"
Count Audine was stunned.
But Brando had already looked at the Golden Mane Beastmen. "Carglise, Kodan, Ropar, Scarlet," he shouted, pointing his sword forward.
"Kill them all!"
"As you wish, My Lord." This was Carglise's reply.
"My Lord!" Scarlet seemed to have been waiting for this order. She stood in front of Brando, the Lightning Spear in her hand flashing with electricity.
Another Gold-tier Elemental Awakening! The Golden Mane Beastman felt his eyelids twitch.
But he soon realized that Scarlet was not the biggest threat on the battlefield. Ropar, the Lord of the Fireclaw Lizardmen, remained silent as usual. He only took a step forward, turned around, and used his huge tail to sweep the Golden Mane Beastmen who rushed up from the left flank.
Then, the tall lizardman swung his double-ended sword horizontally, and a row of Golden Mane Beastmen were turned into charcoal at the same time.
In just one exchange, the Golden Mane Beastmen had lost a team.
Then, he raised his head and stood like a tall wall on the battlefield. The Golden Mane Lionmane Beastmen who were blocked in front of him were stunned by his imposing manner. However, Ropar did not waste time talking nonsense. He pointed forward with one of his three fingers.
Dozens of Fireclaw Lizardmen rushed out from behind him like a broken dam.
Only Kodan unsheathed his sword and walked slowly to Brando's side. "I don't think I agreed to work under you, boy?"
"Is that so?" Brando asked.
"At least I didn't agree to take orders from you."
"This is not my order."
"Oh?" Kodan was stunned.
Brando glanced at Count Audine and asked, "Count, during the reign of the late king, was there anyone who dared to humiliate Erouine's ambassadors?"
He asked.
Audine paused for a moment and shook his head.
"So," Brando's Halran Gaia burst into flames, but he still turned around and asked, "Count Audine, how about we use our swords to give Erouine an answer?"
Audine looked at him and shook his head with a bitter smile, "No problem."
Brando turned back to look at Kodan.
Kodan did not answer. He just threw the scabbard in his hand, and a green breeze surrounded his body.
Elman's eyes twitched. Elemental Awakening, Intermediate Gold-rank, another one. Since when did Erouine have so many elites — —
