- It's always approaching, and the tension of the battlefield is permeated around the tree.

The distribution of supplies and the arrangement of items are being exchanged, and the state of the raiding teams gathered on the battlefield has been adjusted to perfection. The horses, which obeyed the orders of the cavalry, also breathed wildly and waited for orders.

Hold your breath and calm your mind, and everyone is waiting for that moment.

At night above the Sky Tree, clouds flew by in strong winds.

Whenever the moonlight was obscured by clouds, everyone would raise their heads one after another, lest the huge body of greed appear in the air. Everyone's hearts, yes, are dominated by vigilance to this extent.

"By the scheduled time, there is only a little bit left, and the pioneers sent out have not come back yet?"

Flipping through the phone and whispering calmly, it was actually for Crantiel, and the corners of Lin Feng's eyes caught the appearance of Krantiel standing beside him bowing slightly.

Although he is a knight who has served the empire for many years, he can make people feel a very serious feeling, but at this moment, it gives people a sense of urgency that cannot be spoken.

But if you are overwhelmed by the tension, this is not the case.

Krantiel understood his duty—his responsibility as the leader of the raider, and was determined to do so.

In fact, depending on the degree of command of Crantiel, perhaps the number of final victors in this battle will also change.

Crantiel was convinced of the victory of his camp.

But he wasn't arrogant enough to feel like he could crusade against greed perfectly without sacrifice, however.

"Whether it is possible to reduce the necessary number of sacrifices, I still have the confidence to consider this level of things, and for the sake of the next war of the empire, I have to minimize the losses."

It seemed that he had seen through Lin Feng's concerns, and Krantiel's self-confidence was like coming from the country he had sworn to defend, as well as his trust in his beloved emperor.

“.......”

On the front, at the forefront of the line of the guards was Klaas with swords.

In a large sword pinned behind him, Crantil held his right hand on the hilt of the sword, maintaining a posture ready to strike at any moment.

The calm sword qi that wrapped around Klaas's body formed a clear realm, as if even the moment of ushering in the long-cherished wish of sacrificing his life for the country was sublimated.

Klaas's pure lifestyle made Lin Feng feel out of place.

Swing your sword for the goal you want to protect, swing your sword for the country you want to protect, and swing your sword for the sake of protecting thousands of civilians in the empire.

Is it possible to concentrate on keeping one's soul so clear?

Lin Feng thought from the bottom of his heart - one day, he would also reach that realm, no, at least, he would also wield a sword for the person he loved.

“......”

Standing side by side with Crantiel, the warriors of the crusade with a look of consciousness were equally high.

Following Krantiel's orders, they also had doubts in their hearts as they waited for greed, and Lin Feng, the biggest source of information they knew about the emergence of greed, not to mention building a relationship of trust, even had very little contact time.

Even so, they obeyed unconditionally, because they respected the judgment of Crantiel, but also the judgment of the Empire, and Krantiel felt strongly that he had an obligation to reciprocate this trust.

“......”

The battlefield is silent, the deadline is approaching, and the soaring spirit of battle is stirring up in Crantiel's heart.

Crantiel's hand touched the hilt of the sword, confirming the touch of the White Tiger pattern engraved on it, a habit he had since he was a child, and it was the magic that Crantil infused with enlightenment.

“......”

Be sure to win!

“......”

Suddenly, a voice rang out in the clearing next to the Sky Tree that was shrouded in darkness.

The soft sound continued to sound, and he was a little late to notice that the one that was beating the eardrum was the music.

Krantiel's gaze turned to the source of the sound, and what he saw was the figure of Lin Feng holding the glowing [Prophecy] in his hand, and from the [Prophecy] in his hand, there was the noisy music.

This is what Lin Feng said, the signal that informed that moment.

"All staff, vigilant ——!"

After Colander's order, the raiding party was all in position, ready to establish a defensive line at any time, while the adventurers were waiting on the sidelines, ready to move forward at any time.

According to Lin Feng, within tens of seconds of the [Prophecy] notification, greed would appear, but the location was not very clear.

If you believe his words, even at this moment, the huge body suddenly appeared here, it is not incredible, and the place is also.

Now that the prophecy has been announced, this should be the correct place.

Although there were still many suspicious places, Lin Feng did not have a reason to be suspicious. Abandoning doubts and distractions, Krantiel focused his mind to the extreme, waiting for greed to come.

however

“......”

In the silence, I couldn't feel the breath of the powerful demonic beast appearing.

Although this performance is incorrect, on the battlefield where there has been no change after a minute, Crantiel is also very rare to be unable to restrain his emotions and waver.

A gap in information, a mistake in an assumption, or something unexpected happens.

The peacefulness that fell on the sky tree did not change, and there was no invincible shadow in the surrounding scenery, not even murderous aura.

"The vanguard, haven't you come back yet?"

The moonlight was not obscured by the clouds, and the surrounding area was still clearly visible, and the vanguard sent out in order to find out the enemy's position should have returned.

At this time, Clarence, who had been silently staring at the darkness, suddenly lowered his voice and muttered:

"Crane sama, someone's coming."

"Can you see that?"

Lin Feng subconsciously spoke, and at this time Lin Feng remembered that the other party was a knight who was not on the same level as himself.

"Yes, there are people coming here, and in terms of numbers, it should be the vanguard."

Not long after, in the area illuminated by the torch about 100 meters ahead, as if in response to Clarance's words, a vague figure appeared, and it seemed that it was walking towards this place.

The line consisted of about fifty people, all of whom were adventurers dressed in a variety of equipment.

There was a noticeable atmosphere of relaxation among the troops, and the enemy not only did not show up and the vanguard returned, but walked at a slow pace.

At Krantiel's signal, a small number of guards broke away from the group and hurried towards them, as if to comfort them.

For some reason, Lin Feng felt extremely uneasy.

Is it because greed didn't show up?

No, the appearance of greed should be considered a good thing, even if it will be convicted of bullying the king, but the credit for aiding the princess of the empire can already be regarded as making up for it.

So......

Why do you feel uneasy?
