The wind blew along Herr Mountain Range.
From north to south, from small to big, the wind poured into the only valley in the mountain range.
The valley was nameless.
The name of the fortress.
Thunder!
A fortification made entirely out of stone. After spending a huge amount of manpower and money for 30 years, the Warren royal family built it in the middle of the valley and became the barrier of Riverdale, the capital of Warren.
Three thousand professional soldiers stationed there made the fortress even more impregnable.
Even the powerful enemies from the Prairies had suffered heavy defeats in the fortress and had to retreat in low spirits.
It further convinced the people of Warren that Thunder Fortress was impregnable.
However, at that very moment, Thunder Fortress was facing a formidable foe.
The drawbridge was pulled up.
Groups of fully armed soldiers walked up the fortress walls.
Groups of riders were on standby behind the fortress walls.
War machines were pulled out from the warehouse one after another.
It was all because of a secret order from the military headquarters two hours ago: Stop anyone who wants to pass through Thunder Fortress within a day!
Trespassers …
Kill!
...
Huu, Huu!
The wind that gushed into the valley entrance was getting stronger.
That whistling sound was like thunder, deafening to the ears.
The wind blew on one's face, causing pain in one's face.
However, the groups of soldiers on top of the fortress walls stood straight like spears and javelins. The swords in their hands were unsheathed and their bows were nocked as they gazed into the distance with ferocious killing intent.
A lone figure suddenly appeared at the entrance of the valley.
The black mantle was fluttering in the strong wind.
The black feathers on the mantle were emanating an unusual shine under the moonlight.
It was turbid and gloomy.
It was like a ghost fire that lit up at midnight in a graveyard.
A bad feeling spread in the soldiers' hearts, causing their sharp killing intents to pause for a moment.
It was at that moment that the figure moved.
He was as fast as a sprinting horse.
From afar, he closed in and within a few breaths' time, he arrived in front of Thunder Fortress. The figure had no intention of stopping, he leaped up and dashed towards the fortress walls.
"Fire the arrows!"
The general on top of the fortress walls gave the order loudly.
Sou Sou Sou!
Arrows poured down like rain.
The dark sky was instantly filled with the sharp edge of metal, drowning the leaping figure.
Ten thousand arrows piercing the heart!
Witnessing this scene, the defending generals and soldiers all had such thoughts.
Unconsciously, they, who were affected by the ominous feeling, all heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts.
However, in the next moment, their anger was stifled in their hearts.
Their eyes widened as they watched the sharpness that filled the night sky be disrupted!
They watched as the figure broke through the rain of arrows!
"Fire!"
"Fire!"
The general on guard kept shouting.
However, it was completely useless. An invisible force field blocked the arrows' attacks, causing all the arrows to return without any effect.
It couldn't be said that it didn't have any effect.
At the very least, the leaping figure had exhausted its strength and was about to fall.
The general was overjoyed.
However, this joy only lasted for less than a second before it was shattered by the figure who leaped into the air without stepping on anything.
"How is this possible?!"
The continuous occurrence of things that defied common sense caused the defending general to cry out in shock.
He didn't even have time to react to the spider silk shot out from the figure's hand.
By the time they realized that the spider silk was stuck to the city wall and was dragging the figure closer, it was already too late.
"Slash the spider …"
Puk!
Before the general could finish, his body was slashed in half by a dark red greatsword.
Kieran, who was wielding the greatsword, climbed up the city wall and glanced over the soldiers before him with his dark eyes.
The soldiers whose superior was killed didn't scatter like birds and beasts.
Quite the contrary, the battle-hardened soldiers reacted in the quickest manner.
"Kill!"
Almost in unison, they shouted.
Spears after spears were thrust towards Kieran.
In an instant, sharp spears that could take away one's life were everywhere.
However, similar to the useless arrows, the sharp spears were still useless. When they were an inch away from Kieran's body, they were stopped by a formless force.
On the contrary, [Arrogant Word]'s sharpness was sharp enough to slash through brambles.
Chang!
Amidst the noise of metal being cut, the spears were cut down one after another.
The person holding the spear was also cut down together with the spear.
The bewitching glare on the greatsword was flickering non-stop. Following Kieran's footsteps, the greatsword slashed across the night sky one after another.
Soon, the whole city wall was soaked in blood.
Body after body that was cut in half was thrown away recklessly.
However, the soldiers of Thunder Fortress were still charging towards Kieran one after the other, stopping Kieran's advance like the rising tide of a great river.
However, everything was useless.
If the soldiers of Thunder Fortress were like a great river, Kieran would be a dam that intercepted the flow.
No matter how vast the river was, it would be cut off by him.
No matter how ferocious the river was, it couldn't stop Kieran's advance.
Until …
River!
Puk!
[Arrogant Word] was swung horizontally from left to right.
The three soldiers in front of Kieran were slashed in half at the waist. At the same time, the spears from the soldiers on the left and right behind Kieran landed on his body.
Dang, Dang!
Amidst the loud strikes, [Primus Scale] vanished and [Armor of Excellence] started to display its Powerful defense.
However, the scene struck despair into the soldiers on top of the city wall.
Without the support of the mystical power, they still couldn't break through the defense of the person before them.
And they were being slaughtered like chickens and dogs by the person in front of them.
Even the veterans of the battlefield had reached their limits at that moment.
[Armor of Excellence] was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
The soldiers on top of the city wall were afraid.
The so-called elite soldiers retreated.
They opened up a path for Kieran.
Kieran had a clear look at the path that led to the inner city wall of Thunder Fortress.
It was wide and long.
At the end of the path, 500 riders had assembled.
Their metallic armor was dazzling.
Their straight spears were raised up high as if they were going to pierce through the heavens.
The war horses were fat and strong, neighing ceaselessly.
Without any pause, Kieran jumped down.
Wuuu!
Amidst the heavy bugle call and the tremors of the ground, the 500 riders charged forward.
They raised their spears horizontally and aimed at their only target.
They wanted to pierce through Kieran's body and stomp Kieran into meat paste.
Especially when they saw Kieran charging towards them, the riders felt like their dignity was being challenged, turning the thought into their only thought.
The tremors of the ground got stronger.
Even the pebbles on the ground started to jump.
However, it wasn't from the riders' war horses.
It was from Kieran.
Or more precisely, it was from the mirage that appeared behind Kieran.
The giant rhino mirage was roaring in joy.
It seemed like it had returned to the world it was most familiar with, running with its powerful limbs and running endlessly, overtaking everything in its path.
Anything that stood in its way would be crushed with a single strike.
Even if it was …
Thousands of men and horses!
