Everyone turned around and saw the Knights chasing after the two silver-grey wolves, but they were too slow. The nobleman who was attacked only managed to let out a short scream before his throat was pierced by the sharp white teeth. His scream came to an abrupt end as the two wolves dragged the human's corpse into the white fog.
"How did they get here?!" Count Audine roared, "How did you let them in?! Are you all idiots?!"
A cripple!
A direct descendant of the Misthowler!
Brendel watched as the nobleman kicked his feet and disappeared into the mist. His eyelids twitched slightly. [It really is that guy.] He immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Everyone, stay close! Those bastards are invisible in the fog!"
As soon as his voice trailed off, two streams of fog passed by the young man not far away.
"Be careful!"
Quinn raised his longbow and shot three arrows in that direction. Three arrows, two from the front and one from the back, were like three silver lines in an instant. Two blossoms of blood bloomed in the white fog.
However, one of the arrows still missed its mark.
The silver-grey wolf leaped to the side and pounced on a young man not far away. The monster's movements were shockingly fast. Before anyone could react, it had already bitten the young man's shoulder.
With a scream, the wolf tore off half of the young man's body. The young man who was covered in blood widened his eyes as if he could not believe that he was dead.
"Quincy!"
The young man's companions immediately roared in anger. Seeing their companion die in front of them, they were instantly blinded by anger. They unsheathed their longswords and rushed forward to avenge their companion.
But Brando was faster than them. Although he had expected that there would be casualties, it was impossible for him not to be enraged when he saw the young man he had personally groomed die in front of him.
Brando immediately pointed in that direction. Ten beams of light pierced through the fog and punched a few holes in the body of the cripple.
At the same time, with a thought, the net of light immediately formed an airtight net around everyone, forcing the invisible demons to stay far away.
However, the Knight and the centaur elders who were further away were not so lucky. Although the limpers were only Silver-tier creatures, as long as they did not attack, they would not show themselves in the mist. That was why they were able to take advantage of the situation.
What's more, once the demonic wolves launched an attack, there would be many of them working together. Even if they were slightly stronger than the demonic wolves, they would still suffer a great loss.
More than half of the knights were killed in an instant, and the centaur elders also lost more than ten men. Most of the people who were attacked were dragged to the ground, and then two or more limps pounced on them and dragged them into the fog in the blink of an eye.
For a moment, shrill screams rose and fell one after another.
The entire group seemed to have turned into a slaughterhouse in an instant. Looking around, one could see wild beasts fighting over human corpses that had been torn apart. Flesh and blood splattered everywhere. An intact soldier was dragged into a pack of wolves, and in the blink of an eye, only a pile of white bones was left.
Amandina was so frightened that she held her breath, but she still stood by Brando's side. Even if her face was pale, the hand that was holding onto her leather pouch could not help but tremble slightly.
Vahina, who was not far away, had lost all color in her beautiful face when compared to the calm noble's daughter. Fortunately, the black-haired alchemist still showed some of his true colors as a descendant of a Kirrlutz noble. He used a few strange plants between himself and the flowing fog to protect the three of them.
Even though Viscount Elman's expression was a little ugly, he still pulled out his longsword and stood beside Vahina to protect her. Occasionally, he would force back the silver-gray demonic wolves that wanted to pounce on them.
The three of them finally managed to hold their ground. When they looked up, they saw that the fog was getting thicker and thicker. It was obvious that the attack of the limpers was just the beginning.
For a moment, everyone could not help but feel a little hopeless.
Except for Brando. He commanded the dragoons to protect the flanks of the youths' formation while diverting his attention to the battlefield.
Finally, after a short moment, he caught sight of the male wolf's presence again.
It ran to the center of the battlefield.
Brando furrowed his brows.
"Felaern, Tia, Wind Wall!" The young lord shouted as he held Halran Gaia in one hand. He knew that there would be more and more limpers on the battlefield. Even if they were not a threat to him, they were a fatal threat to the youths under him.
He brought them to experience the battlefield, not to send them to their deaths.
When the two Wild Elf sisters heard Brando's shout, they immediately took a step back and went to the center of the formation. After attaining Vientiane, the Mercenaries of Lopes had the strength of a peak Silver rank. For a peak Silver rank Elementalist, casting a second circle Wind Wall was too easy.
The two Wild Elf sisters worked together to cast a spell, and it only took them an instant to create a whirlwind around their fingertips. "Wind, spread your wings!" Felaern raised her hand and shouted. The whirlwind around her fingertips seemed to have expanded a thousand times in an instant.
It was as if a tornado had appeared out of thin air and swept across everyone. Then, it stabilized around everyone and formed a roaring wall of wind with a radius of more than 100 meters around them.
The second circle Wind Wall was a powerful weapon used to counter physical arrows. It was not very useful on normal days, but it was a powerful weapon against the Howling Fog.
When the wind blew, the fog around them immediately dissipated.
Everyone saw the air ripple like water. Then, within the range of the storm, dozens of silver-gray demonic wolves appeared at the same time. These demonic wolves were slightly startled. They obviously didn't know what was going on.
However, Brando did not have the obligation to explain to these uninvited guests. He pointed his finger and dozens of light pillars immediately turned them into ashes.
"Good idea." Quinn put down his longbow and could not help but exclaim in admiration. He had lived for more than two hundred years. It was not that he had never heard of the Howling Fog, but Brando's ingenious idea made him feel ashamed of his own inferiority.
When the wind blew and the fog dissipated, the Limping Walkers had lost their most prided weapon. The Limping Walkers that had revealed themselves were just magical creatures that were stronger than the average black wolf. The centaurs could easily drive them out of the circle of wind.
However, Brando knew that defense was only a temporary measure. If they wanted to break out of the fog, they had to solve the problem once and for all.
"Mr. Kodan, I'll leave the command to you for now," he ordered, "Carglise, you'll be second in command."
"My second in command?" Carglise was shocked. If he took over the position of second in command, he would have to face an endless sea of wolves and this strange attack. Would he be able to do his best? He could not guarantee that.
But if he did not even dare to face a few wolves, wouldn't his previous ambitions be a joke? The young man pursed his lips and nodded firmly, "No problem."
Brendel gave him a thumbs up, but Kodan looked at him and asked: "What are you trying to do?" The old swordsman was much calmer.
"Of course I'm going to kill the alpha wolf," Brando replied, "Scarlet, come behind me."
The red-haired girl was using her short bow to kill the surrounding wolves. When she heard Brando's words, she turned around and swept her messy hair back with her left hand. She then immediately threw the short bow to a young man beside her.
She took out the Lightning Spear from her back and silently walked to Brando's side.
"You won't be afraid if you follow me later, right?" Brando asked.
"It's not the first time anyway." Scarlet looked at him with her amber eyes and replied.
"Mr. Quinn, can you do it?"
"No problem." The leader of the Tree Elves replied casually.
Brando nodded. He wanted to bring Ropar along, but Ropar was a strength-based warrior and was not suitable for the battle below.
He took a deep breath and raised Halran Gaia in front of him. But at that moment, Brando felt a hand grabbing his hand.
He turned around and saw Amandina frowning. She gritted her teeth and looked at him: "My lord, you forgot what you promised me! You're already a lord with responsibilities, why are you risking your life again? "
Brando paused for a moment, but he still let go of Amandina's hand: "This is a battle, not a matter of personal heroism. Don't worry, I'm confident."
Amandina opened her mouth, but she gritted her teeth and swallowed the rest of her words.
"I understand." She lowered her head and replied with gritted teeth.
Brando did not know what she knew, but he was not lying. If they stayed here for too long, the wolves would have the time to surround them. Then all of them would die without a grave.
But the wolves were cunning and would not let them succeed so easily.
If it was anyone else, they would have to fight to the death in this situation. But Brendel knew that if he had a chance to strike, he would be able to do it.
Because this was him.
Because this body had the memories of another person's soul.
"But how do you plan to get past them?" Kodan asked: "Outside the circle of wind, the wolves are like a tide. It's not easy to kill our way out, so how are we going to approach the wolves?"
"Do you want the centaurs to open a path?" Quinn asked.
"No need."
Brando shook his head. He held his sword in his right hand and thrust it forward with his left hand: "Everyone, listen to my orders. Split up!"
The entire battlefield fell into silence.
Elder Wydd turned his head to look at Brando. He was slightly startled, but he knew that he could not disobey an order from the army.
He was full of doubts, but he raised his halberd up high.
