On the battlefield, the Noricans were being defeated. They had lost all their cavalry in a foolish charge. At that moment, the first Leatherwolf Gang was forced back by cannon fire as soon as they stepped onto the dock. The entire Norican World Walker Legion was trapped in the small town of Shantiron, suppressed by the Brittany's cannon fire. They couldn't do anything at all on the beach!
The World Walker Legion was in urgent need of a leader who could give orders and reorganize the army. The champion of any evil god could only command the army under their own god, and they were extremely disgusted and ostracized by the followers of other gods. They barely kept themselves from fighting among themselves because they had come out to plunder together.
The Noricans' cooperation was terrible. They gradually retreated under the barrage of cannons, muskets, crossbows, and longbows.
At that moment, the only one who could command and reorganize the entire legion, Ulfric the Wanderer himself, was still dueling with Kalad. They had been fighting for more than four hours, and Ulfric, who was addicted to dueling, no longer cared about his legion. He felt like he was at the peak of his life. "Fighting with you is really addictive! Knight King! "
Both of them had adjusted themselves to their best condition. Kalad didn't say a word. He understood Ulfric's words. Count Garament's figure was like a shadow jumping back and forth. The two of them continued to exchange blows with embers and explosions. The original terrain of the battlefield had been completely destroyed. Now, they were continuing their duel in a field full of potholes.
"Come on, continue to make me happy!" Ulfric roared without restraint.
Kalad dodged Ulfric's attack again. Even the Great Grail of the Sanctum could feel that Kalad's stamina was slipping. It was a strange feeling that he hadn't felt since he drank from the Grail of the Lake Nymph. Count Garament's heart burned with endless flames and power. His body was gradually enveloped by the pure golden flames and the light of the Lake God.
Similarly, Ulfric also changed. The smell of the sea, ice, and endless blood surrounded the Wanderer. The souls of dozens of champions and giant beasts even emerged from Ulfric's body. They screamed and became the Wanderer's spiritual food and strength. Ulfric's body grew taller. He was now more than two and a half meters tall.
"Binding and enslaving the souls of the dead and the defeated to strengthen yourself?" Kalad finally exclaimed in shock. "What kind of blasphemy is this?"
"Looks like we're done warming up." Ulfric's expression was twisted like a ball of muscle. "Come on! Knight King! "
Almost at the same time, Kalad and Ulfric's expressions turned ferocious. "Let's fight it out!"
The golden light collided with the blue-black light. Everything within ten meters was reduced to ashes.
"Hahaha! This is why I can't give up on the championship duel! This is the kind of battle I want! " Ulfric roared with satisfaction. "To be able to fight me to this extent, this is the true championship duel! This is the kind of championship duel I dream of! "
The two sides continued their epic duel. At this time, the Colona army led by Laun had arrived at the scene. The regent of the kingdom frowned as he watched the duel between Kalad and Ulfric. Then, he focused his attention on the battlefield in Shantiron.
Behind him, a dozen Grail knights from the Colona branch of the Holy Grail Knights stood in a row. The leader of the Grail knights, Eugene, and the captain of Laun's personal guard, De Rionyes, spurred their horses forward. Behind them were the three prophets of the lake. The leader of the prophets was called Helene Messier. She rode to Laun's side. "A championship duel is taking place. Kalad is fighting alone."
"Kalad is the peerless warrior of the kingdom. He will never walk alone." Laun drew the Sword of Colona from his waist and raised it. "Knights of Brittany!"
"Here!" Behind Laun, a dozen Grail knights, hundreds of royal knights, and even more knights-errant responded loudly.
"Go support Kalad's army! Protect our city and home. Protect the land the Goddess has given us! "
"For the Lady and the King, for Brittany!"
A thunderous clamor sounded from one side of the battlefield. The knights formed a charging wall and a torrent of steel. Under the command of Laun, the knights of Colona charged forward.
Zec, the chosen one, wanted to repeat the same trick and order the Noskas to form a spear line again. However, the knights had the support of infantry and artillery. The moment the Noskas gathered into a tight formation, the muskets and cannons tore them apart. Then, the Grail knights personally led the charge into the ranks of the barbarians like a giant hammer.
The Noskas were pierced through. Lances pierced through the chests of the barbarians, hooves crushed the heads of the barbarians, and swords sliced through the strange helmets of Chaos. The knights of Colona displayed strength far greater than expected.
On the other side, the Green Knights also led the defeated knights-errant. Now that their courage and youth had returned, the young knights-errant swore to defend their honor and wash away their shame.
The barbarians were on the verge of breaking down. Zec, the chosen one, the labyrinth keeper, angrily cast a spell. Blue flames spewed out of the void and blasted three knights-errant and a royal knight into a wriggling mass of pink flesh. Then, he summoned a terrifying torrent of metal from the void. "Ultimate Alchemy!"
But this time, he met his match. The three prophets of the lake joined together to cast a spell. "Divine Spell, Radiance of the Goddess!"
Zec's spellcasting was hindered. The torrent of metal he summoned killed a dozen knights and squires. The effect was not bad, but it was much less than expected.
The defeated soldiers could no longer help Tzeentch cast any more spells. Under the attack from three directions, the Nosikas had lost their battle. They were torn apart, cut up and annihilated on a large scale. Agic, the Labyrinth Keeper was trying to get the help of the Horde Beast champions, but he soon found that these cowards were not willing to die to protect him. Instead, they were running away!
Tzeentch the Chosen One drew his sword and swung it around furiously. The demonic weapon tore through space and absorbed the Wind of Chaos, storing it until it was released. The blade cut through the first knight and his horse like a hot knife through butter. Tzeentch then swung his sword back. A Royal Knight was hit in the chest and was knocked off his horse before being flung away.
More than a dozen knights and squires died in front of Zec. Zec looked up and found that the Noskas had all collapsed. They scrambled to escape to the fleet of dragonships. The dragonships behind them that did not have time to dock had already begun to retreat!
Zec roared again, saying that his men were all trash. His deafening voice was filled with anger and contempt, but it did not change the fact that his guards were vaporized by the knights' lances, swords, and iron hooves.
The Chosen One of Tzeentch tried to retreat, but his figure had already been locked onto by the knights. The three prophets of the Lake God each chanted a spell at him. Unlucky crows, crackling lightning bolts, and thorns that suddenly sprouted from the ground enveloped Edric and marked him.
Agic used the Wind of Chaos to disperse the crows, turn the lightning arrow into a cloud of steam, and burn the thorns into ashes. But before he could even catch his breath, another knight charged at him. He immediately swung his sword and pierced through the knight's cross helmet, flinging him away. Tzeentech was still trying to plan its escape route when a lance pierced through its chest from behind.
It was a Grail Knight. His golden flaming lance penetrated Zech's Chosen's defense. Zech's Chosen grabbed the lance angrily and threw the Grail Knight off his horse. The Grail Knight's body flew more than 50 meters and crashed into the walls of Shantiron Town, shattering the surface of the wall.
Zec knew that a normal person would have died from internal bleeding, but this was only a minor injury to the Grail knight. He did not have time to think. He swung his sword again and cut down two knights. A sword glowing with green light, the Blade of Agony, pierced his chest. The powerful force of the sword stirred up the wind of Chaos in Zec's body. Zec looked down at the sword in his chest. The Blade of Agony, engraved with ancient runes, had pierced through him. Zec knelt down and gasped in pain. "It's, it's you, you're …"
The Green Knight jumped off his horse. His glowing green eyes stared at Zec without a word. Behind him was the battlefield where the Noskas were completely defeated and slaughtered by the knights.
"Ugh!" The power of the Green Knight was not something Zec the Chosen One could resist. Zec wanted to reach out and grab the Blade of Agony that had pierced his chest, but the Green Knight pulled out the sword. The blade spun twice like a phantom and both of Zec's arms were cut off. Zec the Chosen One struggled and said, "I am but one of the countless messengers of my Lord. Mortals, you are destined to fail. You are destined to fall under my Lord's divine might. This is only the beginning of everything. The end will come. You will be forgotten by everyone. Everything you know will be erased from history. No one dares to defy the great Four Gods. No one!"
"Not now." The Green Knight said coldly. He swung the Blade of Agony and Zec's head flew off his shoulder. "Not until the last Brittany's son falls!"
Edric's head flew off and rolled a few times on the ground. Surprisingly, the Chosen One of God did not seem to be dead. Wings and sharp eagle claws suddenly grew out from under his head.
Zec's head fell to the ground. He flapped his claws and spread his wings.
"Die!" Even faster than the wings was the sword of Regent Laun. The sharp Sword of Kolona was filled with the holy power of the Lake Nymphs. The blade pierced straight into Zec's head. The holy power of purification sizzled like boiling oil. Zec's face contorted as if he wanted to scream but could not. The blue flames in his eyes gradually shrank.
"The son of Brittany will not yield to Chaos. Never." Laun continued to push the blade forward until the tip of the blade touched the bone. The flames in Zec's eyes were finally extinguished.
The Nosikars completely collapsed.
Boom! At the scene of the battle, Kalad's Durandale fell once again. The outcome of the battle was finally clear.
With a loud explosion, Uvric's shield was shattered. The wanderer tried to regain his balance, but without his shield, he was knocked to the ground by Kalad's next attack.
"You and your army have lost!" Kalad recounted the outcome of the battle amidst the golden light and flames. "And you, will also lose here."
"Lose? It doesn't matter. " Uvric's thigh was bleeding. Durandale's blade had sliced open the flesh on his thigh. The Wanderer who bore the pain knew that he and his vanguard had been defeated. Judging from the situation, they had suffered heavy losses. Six thousand men? Eight thousand? Ten thousand?
The wanderer did not care. "This is a battle between warriors. Looks like we can only fight here today. Although I still want to fight you, unfortunately, I still have a mission given to me by the true god. You win this battle, but I will come back and challenge you again. I swear!"
"You still think you can escape?" Kalad sneered. As he spoke, the tip of Durandale's sword pierced the wanderer's waist. Kalad kicked Uvric away.
"Why not?!" Uvric endured the pain and retreated. He put some distance between him and Kalad and stretched out his hand toward the sky.
Boom! Boom! Boom! A huge dragonship appeared in the sky along with the Wind of Chaos. It was the wanderer's flagship, the Hague!
A rope was dropped from the Hague. Ufrek grabbed the rope and flew into the sky with the Hague, forcibly leaving the battlefield.
"What?" Kalad looked at the scene in disbelief.
This was illogical. Dragonships could fly?
But would the Chaos talk about logic with you? Count Garament finally put down his sword. He looked at the town of Shantiron and the plains of Kurona.
With the charge of the knights led by Laun and the Green Knights, the advance of the infantry, and the bombardment of the artillery, the Nosikas were forced to retreat. They left behind more than eight thousand corpses. The remaining dragonships escaped from the docks in a hurry and sailed toward the ocean. In the end, the war mammoths and Nosika giants were forced to retreat before they could find a chance to land.
The commander of the World Walker army, Uvric, was injured. Tzeentech's chosen one, Edric, was killed.
This battle belonged to the Brittany!
"Victory! Victory! Victory! " The cheers of the knights and soldiers shook the world. It was a sweet victory. The Brittany only lost about two thousand men. This was mostly caused by the failed charge of the knights.
"We will never stop. There is still hope, soldiers, my brothers!" Kalad announced that he had won the championship. The Great Grail of Sanctum raised her fist. "With powerful warriors like you by our side, the Brittany will never surrender to the darkness. We will never stop until the power of destruction is completely destroyed and we win the final victory!"
The roars of the army were deafening. Everyone was shouting for victory. The knights were even more so. There was nothing more glorious than protecting the country.
In the chaotic battlefield after the battle, Laun walked to Kalad amidst the cheers of victory. "Well done. You held on until we arrived."
"This is only the beginning." Kalad was a little tired. He panted. "I noticed that many of the enemy's troops were defeated before they even joined the battle. How many of them did we kill? A quarter? A third at most. "
"That's right. Looks like this is only the beginning." Laun also stopped smiling. He put the Sword of Kurona back into its scabbard. "We must inform the king of this and the order for reinforcements as soon as possible!"
"This is not a test. This is a sign of a full-scale invasion!"
"We must ask for reinforcements and prepare for an all-out war!"
