Hail the King

The face of that haughty figure dropped.

He wanted to let the 6,000 cavaliers of Zenit enter the city; his men won’t need to fight with these cavaliers who had high morale at the moment, and these cavaliers would lose their mobility which was their advantage. Once these cavaliers lost their mobility, they would be like tigers who had fallen into a swamp; this haughty figure was confident that he could slowly kill these cavaliers with time while suffering minimal casualties.

But if he couldn’t stop this archer of Zenit right now, the morale of the troops of Jax would drop drastically.

“Let the mages do their work,” after a moment of silence, that haughty figure made a decision and commanded.

A dozen powerful mages started to chant spells under the protection of their guards, and they began to prepare one powerful magic attack. These mages in the military were very different from the mages in academies; they had more discipline, and they coordinated with each other better. With lots of experience, they were good at capturing opportunities and dealing the maximum amount of damage to their enemies.

“[Anger of the Goddess of Earth]!!”

Just as that man and his mount got through the herald legion, these mages found the opportunity and cast the spell without hesitation before he entered the second layer of defense legion. There weren’t any soldiers of Jax there, so these mages didn’t need to worry about injuring soldiers on their side.

Magic elements started to surge.

In the next moment, the ground that was really solid started to move. Some places moved up and down like waves, and some areas turned into swamps. At the same time, several huge spikes dashed out of the ground like drill heads and targeted the belly of the black beast.

“Bark! Bark! Bark!”

The angry roars of the black beast surprised everyone.

“It sounds like a dog! But how can a dog be this big?”

What happened next made these people rub their eyes to make sure that they weren’t hallucinating.

This huge beast had the superior agility that didn’t match its huge size. Like a dash of black smoke, it was able to jump away from the spikes, swamps, and waves. It even jumped over a few walls that the soldiers of Jax constructed for defense; these walls were all more than 10 meters tall.

[Anger of the Goddess of Earth] was a famous Ultimate Magic Spell that was used in battle. It required multiple mages, and it was able to create more than 20 kinds of disasters such quicksand, swamp, spikes, and traps in an area of one square kilometer; this spell was the nightmare to all cavaliers.

Of course, this spell had top-tier requirements. Other than the powerful mages, it needed magic devices to be pre-setup in the area, and the spell could only affect the area within the range of these devices.

This was why these mages of Jax didn’t use this spell when the 6,000 cavaliers of Zenit charged through the defense of Jax; the path of those cavaliers wasn’t within this area.

However, stopping this archer and his mount was a critical mission, so that haughty figure had to resort to this magic spell.

To everyone’s surprise, this magic spell was easily defeated by that archer…… no, it was his mount that easily defeated this spell using its agility and speed; it felt like this beast had a pair of wings on its back.

The dozen mages who were exhausted from casting this spell almost fainted after seeing this; this was a huge shocker to them.

This was beyond their imagination.

“A mid-size Ultimate Magic Spell couldn’t kill a dog?” they thought.

“Tell the herald legion to surround him from the behind, and tell the second defense legion to use the spear formation to kill him!” the haughty figure was getting gloomier and gloomier.

Bugle noises sounded again.

That archer and his mount faced the elite spearmen of Jax.

Each of the enormous iron spears that were more than three meters long was lifted by four soldiers each, and their sharp tips were all pointed at a 45-degree angle. Looking from afar, they looked like a forest of metal that represented death.

Spear Formation was one of the best tools against cavaliers.

Even a cavalier who had the strength of Five-Star could be potentially killed inside of it.

However, it didn’t seem like this archer and his mount would be killed by it. When he was 20 meters away, this archer started to punch out repeatedly, and transparent fist marks that were one cubic meter in size flew into the Spear Formation like meteors.

Blood instantly spilled in all directions.

Still, nothing could stop this man on the massive beast.

His punches created a path for him.

In front of these fist marks, the soldiers of Jax were too fragile. Blood created rivers and bones created hills. The black beast stepped over the blood and bones of the enemies, and this archer and his mount continued forward.

All of the commanders of Jax on the hill were mesmerized and stunned.

“What kind of strength does he have? How can he dominate over tens of thousands of people? Is he a Moon-Class Elite?”

That haughty head commander of Jax clearly sensed the drop in the morale of his men.

This was what he was afraid of.

In the mind of this haughty figure, this archer and his beast won’t do much damage to the troops of Zenit even if they killed some soldiers. After all, a war couldn’t be won with individual strength; there was an extent to how much damage one person can do. However, the damage to the morale of the troops was huge. To ordinary soldiers, this man was a huge deterrent.

“Give me my bow!” the haughty figure ordered.

A guard beside him quickly moved and got him a bow that had a special design; it looked like an eagle that opened its wings.

The body of the bow was grey, and both of its sides were white. There was the sculptured head of an eagle on top of the bow, and its bowstring looked like a beam of dark red light; it was hard to tell what material it was, but it emitted a fire-elemental energy.

As soon as he held onto the bow, the presence and the aura of this haughty figure changed.

If he was like a sword in a scabbard before, he was now a sword that was fully-drawn,

When he placed his finger on the bowstring and lightly pulled on it, a red arrow appeared on it.

Ribry who wasn’t too far away from him saw clearly that this arrow was made from Warrior Energy. Even if this bow was special and could empower this haughty figure, this man was very close to an Eight-Star Warrior.

“He is going to sneak attack with this strength?” Ribry thought to himself.

“Be careful……” Ribry got anxious immediately, and he shouted as he empowered his voice using the last bit of his Warrior Energy. However, since his body moved violently because of it, the wounds on his body got torn again.

Whoosh!

The arrow was already shot out before Ribry could finish shouting.

The speed of the arrow was extremely fast; it looked like it teleported itself. It got to the archer on the beast before the trail of red fire could be formed in the air.

That archer could only tilt his body and try to dodge this strike.

Blood spilled.

That red fire arrow pierced through this archer’s left shoulder and disappeared into the sky.

After all of this was done, the air-piercing noise created by the arrow finally sounded. This noise was so loud that it sounded like the eruption of a volcano. The soldiers who were close to the trail of the arrow bleed for their ears.

A series of loud cheers sounded on the side of Jax.

“That unstoppable devil is finally injured?”

“He is someone who would get injured as well?”

Blood leaked out of the wound on that archer’s left shoulder, and a cloud of smoke could be seen around it. The wound was so deep that white bones could be seen from it.

“He is injured! Charge and kill him!”

“Ahahaha! Cut off his head! It is a great merit!”

“He is about to die! Kill him!”

The soldiers around the archer were frenzied; they all charged at this archer as if the bravery was restored inside of them. “A dragon even could be killed if there are enough ants!” this phrase appeared in the heads of these soldiers. In their minds, if they could kill this man, the merits they could get from it would be enough to last the rest of their lives.

Even some commanders couldn’t hold in the urge and unleashed their Warrior Power.

Ribry was angry and anxious, and he couldn’t help but sigh as well. He felt guilty as he was captured because he underestimated his enemies and a master warrior of Zenit was in danger because of his actions.

However, what happened next restored hope in his mind.

“Hahaha! I’m disappointed! So the honor of the soldiers of Jax is gained from shameless sneak attacks and the numbers advantage?”

As a burst of laughter sounded, a visible aura exploded on this archer of Zenit. All of the enemies within 20 meters from him couldn’t dodge in time and were all turned into blood mists. All the Star-level commanders of Jax who were protected by their Warrior Energy were all killed by the punches of this man as well.
