Scarlet, Audine, Ropar, and Kodan were like four sharp blades stabbing into the Lion Beastmen's formation. The Lion Beastmen's formation was thrown into disarray, but it was only for a moment.
Hundreds of Silver-ranked warriors surrounded a few Gold-ranked warriors, and it seemed like they had a chance of winning.
The adjutant of the Lion Beastmen tried his best to keep his people together, hoping to turn the situation around with their advantage in numbers. But he soon realized that it was wishful thinking on his part.
Even though they were all Gold-ranked warriors, there was still a fundamental difference in their combat power.
Scarlet was only a beginner Gold-ranked warrior, but she was also the God of Thunder's messenger. She had also absorbed the power of the Golden Apple. She was already showing signs of entering the middle ranks, and the Golden Apple was a product that strengthened the coordination of the elements. The electric arcs she controlled formed a dense curtain of lightning in front of her.
The red-haired girl held an electric spear in her hand. She looked like a legendary knight who could control lightning. With a swing of her spear, several bolts of lightning would sweep into the group of lions. The lightning arcs crackled as they crossed a distance of over a hundred feet, leaving a charred hole in the chest of the people who were pierced by them.
But this was not the end. Scarlet became braver and braver as she fought, and she seemed to have entered the state of a god. White lightning surged out of her blazing eyes, and she was as majestic as the God of Thunder. She did not even use her spear. She only needed to point her finger, and a bolt of lightning would turn a Lion Beastman into charcoal.
Looking from the forest afar, one could only see the white lightning dancing outside. Scarlet stood in the middle of a group of Lion Beastmen, like a god. The duke's daughter stared at all of this with her mouth agape, completely forgetting what they were here for. She only stuttered, "Is that the Lord of Thunder, the daughter of the King of Wind Elves, Casas …?"
"What a strong Elemental Perception." The black-haired boy's eyes reflected the white lightning.
Elman's expression also changed. Although the red-haired girl looked like she was only a lower Gold-ranked warrior, her combat power had already surpassed that of a middle Gold-ranked warrior.
At least, she was much stronger than the middle-aged Gold-ranked swordsman.
However, what really made him gasp was not Scarlet, but Ropar and Brando.
If Scarlet was the God of Thunder, then Ropar was the God of Fire. The double-headed sword in the hands of this tall lizardman lord was like dancing flames. Even his body was set ablaze during the battle. However, Ropar did not mind at all. He was originally a creature from the Fire Elemental World.
The Fireclaw Lizard looked like a physical existence, but half of its body flowed with fire elements.
Moreover, elemental lifeforms had long lifespans. Those who could become lords were all outstanding individuals who had stood out from countless battles. Ropar, the overlord of the Scorching Plains, had accumulated a wealth of battle experience in the Fire Elemental Plane. As long as he drew his sword, a lionman would fall.
The Lion-Man tried to block the God of War with his Gold-rank combat strength, but he did not expect the lizard to not dodge at all. Instead, the Lion-Man took the Lion-Man's sword head-on.
The Lion-Man raised his head in shock and saw the flames in Ropar's eyes rising. This was the characteristic of the Fireclaw Lizards. They loved to fight and used damage to increase their strength.
Ropar's HP dropped to less than half, but his strength also increased to the upper Gold-rank.
The Lion-Man swordsman probably did not expect his opponent's strength to increase by two ranks in an instant. At that moment, he only wanted to pull back his sword to block Ropar's attack.
Unfortunately, he did not manage to pull back his sword. Then, the flaming sword descended and turned him into a pile of charcoal.
Ropar pulled out his sword without saying a word, bringing out a flame, and then casually threw the sword away. He watched as his subordinates were injured in battle and their strength increased layer by layer. Originally, there were thirty Fire Claw Assault Spearmen under Silver rank.
The 30 Fireclaw Lizards had now reached the peak of Silver-rank.
The Lion-Men could not stop them at all. The Lion-Man's left wing was forced to retreat, and for a moment, it looked like it was about to collapse.
But at this moment, the Lion-Man's adjutant did not notice the death of his companions and the pressure on the left wing. He was sweating profusely as he dealt with Brando's attack.
In his opinion, the young man was a monster.
His aura was clearly that of a lower Gold-rank, but his combat strength was even more terrifying than that of a peak Gold-rank. If other people attacked with their sword, their Sword Aura would at most kill one or two meters away, but Brando raised his sword and created a fire dragon that was dozens of feet long.
The young man raised his sword high, and the fire dragon climbed up his silver gauntlet like a golden whirlwind that wrapped around the Halran Gaia. Then, he swung his sword down, and a fire pillar that was dozens of feet long instantly engulfed the thirty-four Lion-Men in front of him and crushed them into ashes.
Even if a few escaped, there was a loud bang as the ground cracked inch by inch, and stone teeth pierced out, turning the survivors into hedgehogs.
He only used one sword to open a hole in the center of the Lion-Men's formation.
Brando took a step forward, and the Lion-Men from Toquinin immediately collapsed and retreated. The Lion-Man's adjutant immediately screamed and ordered the Lion-Man crossbowmen to prepare to shoot. He intended to use long-range attacks to kill this terrifying guy.
The Lion-Men who came with Toquinin were all elites of the Altar of Earth, and even the crossbowmen were equipped with magic crossbows. When they heard the order, they took a step back and drew their bows. The arms of the bows were surrounded by a faint yellow glow, and it was obvious that the crossbows were enchanted with the power of the earth.
"Attack!" The Lion-Man's adjutant waved his hand.
Accompanied by a sharp clanging sound, dozens of pale yellow rays pierced out of the forest in an instant. Their target was Brando, but unfortunately, before they could get close, a fiery red shield suddenly appeared and turned them into ashes.
The Lion-Man's adjutant was stunned when he saw the flames around Brando and the failure of all his attacks. If he had the consciousness of a player, he would have cursed.
"By the name of Martha, just how good is this guy's equipment?!"
Indeed, although Brando was only a Lower Gold, he could not withstand the buffs of his equipment and skills. At this moment, he was only a little over Level 30 in The Amber Sword, and was not even considered a first-rate player. However, the quality of his equipment and the number of skills he had were probably only comparable to the RMB Warriors of the same era.
Halran Gaia, Crimson Blessing, Warrior's Ring, and countless Brass and Black Iron weapons. His defense and Constitution alone were better than the Knight of the same era, not to mention his attack power.
Brando's current attack power was probably enough to put a Berserker class to shame.
After taking a round of crossbow bolts, Brando finally found the Lion-Man's adjutant. He looked up and saw the sneaky guy. He forced the Lion-Man to back off with his sword, then took out the Shale Longbow from his back and aimed at the Lion-Man.
"Dust to dust, earth to earth, Petrification Arrow!"
Brando's archery skills were originally inherited from the experience of a Level 100 Warrior. Back in Fortress Riedon, he was not familiar with weapons, but now that he had the Weapon Mastery of Mercenaries, he was confident that he could hit the target at this distance.
He released the bowstring, and the arrow shot out like a meteor towards the Lionman adjutant. The Lionman adjutant's reaction wasn't slow. He immediately raised his sword to deflect the arrow, but the moment his sword touched the arrow, he turned into a stone statue.
"Petrification Bow!" The black-haired youth in the distance almost shouted, if Elman did not cover his mouth. Other than the Viscount, the other descendants of the Cruz nobles could not help but sweat a little. Brando was hiding too much power, and it was a little too much for them to take in.
However, Rono did not realize that the Shale Longbow could only create one Petrification Arrow. He thought that it was the legendary Medusa's Petrification Bow, which was a legendary Fantasy Longbow.
Coupled with the Crimson Blessing and Halran Gaia, it was really a deadly combination.
At this moment, the lionmen finally couldn't hold on any longer. Although they still had the advantage in numbers, Kodan, Ropar, and Audine weren't experienced in battle, so they didn't have the chance to utilize their advantage in numbers. Coupled with the death of two of their commanders, the Lion-Men were like a headless dragon. Their defense line was shaken and finally collapsed.
The first to run was the left wing. Under the attack of a large number of pinnacle Silver-ranked Fireclaw Lizardmen, they suffered heavy casualties. When they saw the death of their adjutant, they immediately turned and ran. Except for a few who were sent to hell by Ropar, most of them quickly disappeared into the vast Black Forest.
When the left wing collapsed, the center immediately felt the pressure and began to retreat. This retreat led to a large-scale collapse, and in the end, Aouine's side was like a duck herding ducks. Even the youths joined the ranks of the ranks to chase after them.
However, Brando did not let his men chase too far. He saw that the Lion-Men were stopped by the Druids who rushed over.
Hundreds of Silver-ranked Lion-Men could still hold on for a while in front of Brando, but in front of the Druids, who were much more numerous, they were captured in a flash.
Therefore, except for a few who escaped into the forest, the rest were all tied up like rice dumplings by the Druids.
The result of the battle was not out of Brando's expectations, but it greatly surprised Erouine's ambassadors. When Audine returned to Brando's camp, the Erouine nobles finally realized what they had done.
Roland sat there with a gloomy face and did not say a word. Meria helped him treat his wounds. The female scholar and Count Audine came over to thank Brando. They were a little embarrassed because they originally wanted to deal with this young man, but they did not expect to stand on the same side because of the Lion-Men.
However, Brando saw that they did not know how to deal with the current situation.
The Lion-Men's words left the nobles in a mess. If the kingdom was already divided, then they did not know what was the point of staying here. Moreover, Cruz's men were also pressuring them. How could they capture Brando?
They looked at the young man. Everything that had happened before made them feel that it was just a delusion.
Audine even began to suspect that Cruz's men were trying to kill Brendel with a borrowed knife.
At this moment, Brando turned around. He heard Carglise calling out to him as he came back from the forest. Although the second son of Lord Macsen was only close to becoming a Silver-ranked, his outstanding swordsmanship and clever mind allowed him to defeat two enemies in the previous battle.
Compared to Scarlet and the others, this result was not shocking, but compared to the other youths who did not gain anything, he was like a crane in a flock of chickens. Now that Carglise had gained a firm foothold among the youths, Brando had the intention to train him to be the deputy of the Knight's Guard.
(PS: As a piece of equipment, the Ghost Knight's crystal's output is similar to the attribute bonus of potions. Therefore, it is also affected by the explosive strength. This is the reason why the price of equipment like the Ogre's Ring is different.) (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters.
