War horses gallop, golden swallowtail flags waving in the wind.

The eagle on the flag is lifelike, as if it is really about to take off into the air.

Under its banner, the cavalry of the hundred Aitandine royal guards sat on the war horses in a uniform manner, their bodies undulated, and even the rhythm of the war horses was exactly the same.

Anyone who sees this cavalry will be amazed at how elite and terrifying it is.

A hundred people are like one.

It's not something that can be achieved by chance.

It would take a huge supply of money and a long period of training.

What's more, this team is not a reality.

That kind of faint evil aura will only appear in the bodies of some battlefield veterans.

Therefore, Felix is very proud to be the leader of this team.

As a close confidant of the Sixth, he has secretly helped His Majesty clear the way on more than one occasion.

And this time?

Nature is no exception.

What's more, this mission is too simple.

Not an assassination.

Not a raid.

It's not even a battle.

It's just an 'escort'.

Escort the new Sika Lord safely to Etaninburgh.

Thinking about the content of this mission, Felix couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.

Felix, who came from an aristocratic background, knew very well what His Majesty meant: to keep the Baroness firmly in his hands, otherwise he would not have sent his youngest and handsome captain here.

In fact, he had heard of the widowed baroness who had been widowed in her early years.

Out of step with the circle of the aristocracy.

Loves to read and is very knowledgeable.

Of course, her appearance was also a well-known beauty when she was young, if it weren't for her too weird personality and insisted on rejecting the royal family, I am afraid that she would have become the wife of a member of the royal family.

And now?

The other party is only thirty years old.

Looks definitely don't change much.

I think of it as both a girl and a young woman.

He liked this kind of woman very much.

Not to mention, the huge legacy brought by the other party.

"If I can really take down this widow, maybe I won't be a squad leader anymore!"

"And my family will inevitably be promoted because of my promotion."

"Even ...... I can build a new mansion in Etantoinburg. ”

Caught up in the beautiful imagination of the future, Felix felt full of strength.

He was eager to appear in front of the baroness in a hurry, and then, show his demeanor and charm, and capture the other party's heart.

As for his fiancée?

He doesn't care about that much.

If the other party is willing to follow him anonymously when he has completed this important step, he is still willing to accept the other party, if the other party minds?

I'm sorry, it's just a fiancée, how can it be more important than his future and the whole family?

Felix, who had made up his mind, looked extremely determined.

At this time, even if there is a lion in front of him to stop him, he will probably have the courage to fight.

However, the lion is not an animal that can be found in the Sika collar.

The snow and ice here can only give birth to hardy and adaptable creatures.

For example......

Mouse!

These rodents, accompanied by a large mist, silently appeared in the dense forests on both sides of the avenue, and they were very good at hiding themselves, quietly staring at the Etandine royal guards who had slowed down due to the fog in front of them.

There is no command.

Naturally there was no offense.

It's like they're spectators, watching it all.

The sudden fog made the whole team move forward slowly for a while, and then stopped.

Felix, who was sitting on his war horse, looked at the fog of more than ten meters in front of him, and couldn't help but sneer a few times.

Having accepted this task, he of course kept a close eye on what was happening in Sika's Collar.

Of course he knew about the so-called 'foggy' church.

Felix, though, didn't take it personally.

Because...... Behind him is the Etandin royal family!

"Just a demigod who has just finished descending, do you really think you can be unscrupulous?"

"If you can't even deal with a demigod......"

"The royal family of Etandin has long been destroyed!"

With a sneer in his heart, the detachment leader raised his right hand.

Suddenly, the subordinate cavalry unsheathed their swords one by one.

The cold light of the blade shone brightly, and strange lines filled the broad spine of the sword, and in the morning light, these lines bloomed with their own brilliance.

Magic weapons!

Moreover, not a single magic weapon.

It's a set of hundreds of magic weapons!

These magical weapons resonate with each other and bless each other.

In the end, it all converged on Felix.

An awe-inspiring aura appeared on Felix.

Feeling the power of a hundred people, Felix couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Although it was not the first time he had felt such power, Felix was still amazed by himself at this time.

Powerful!

Unbeatably powerful!

In the face of such power, what are those evils?

Don't say that those who didn't complete the Advent, even if they did, he had killed two in such a state.

And the demigods?

Involuntarily, Felix's face once again showed a sneer full of sarcasm and murderous intent.

He picked up the golden swallowtail flag tied behind him.

Maybe he's a little worse at the moment than a demigod, but he's here with a 'battle flag'.

Without hesitation, Felix poured all his power into it.

Phew!

An eagle's cry of shattering gold and stone resounded through the sky.

The lifelike falcon on the golden swallow-tailed flag is alive!

It moved its neck first, turned its head to look at the mist, and its sharp eyes seemed to pierce the shroud of the fog and see everything in the mist.

And then—

It, directly from flying from the battle flag.

Without the Eagle's banner, the gold was dim, but the next moment, an even richer gold appeared on the Eagle.

Like a slowly rising sun, the eagle kept flying towards the sky.

Sunlight is absorbed by it.

The light and heat brought by the sunlight converged on it, and after just two breaths, this golden figure became invisible.

Bright, warm.

Radiant, dazzling.

It's exactly like the second rising sun.

It's still climbing.

Not only the body, but also the momentum.

When it came to the apex visible to the naked eye, the eagle seemed to be a bomber, and it dived straight down from the sky, straight into the fog.

Woo!

The strong wind that brought it blew the cheeks of Felix and the others, making them squint involuntarily, and no matter how well-trained the war horse was, they couldn't help but retreat at this time.

The mist that stood in front of them was tumbling as if water were boiling.

The next moment-

Rumble!

A huge explosion erupted into the sky.

A golden glow swept all around.

The ground trembled for a few seconds before stopping.

And when the shaking of the ground stopped, the fog dissipated.

There was also a figure that dissipated along with him.

It's very unclear.

It's very vague.

But Felix saw it.

Several of his subordinates saw it.

In this regard, neither Felix nor these sharpshooters were surprised.

This is normal!

After all, this battle flag is for those so-called 'demigods'.

Once again, the sun was shining all over the land.

All the members of the Aitandine royal family guard could clearly see a huge crater with a diameter of tens of meters appeared on the ground in front of them.

Not only the avenue of peers, but even the dense forests on both sides have been affected by pond fish.

"Dismount!"

"Detour!"

Felix gave a new order.

The two-meter-deep pit is not something that a war horse can cross.

Even if their horses are carefully chosen.

All the guards of the royal family of Etandin jumped off their horses, led their horses, and carefully walked around the edge of the pit.

To speed things up, Felix split the team into two groups and went around the pit on either side of the pit.

Although it was not crowded, the queue was also chaotic.

Felix didn't stop at all.

Because, he knows very well that no matter how elite the team is, it is impossible to maintain uniformity at this time.

Besides, the worst enemy has been killed.

The rest?

Naturally, it was time to receive the loot.

Felix, who thought of the baroness again, immediately began to make plans.

As a young man born in the aristocracy, not only do he have many ways to chase girls, but he also knows which means are most suitable.

Thinking of certain situations, the detachment leader of the Etandine royal family guard couldn't help but smile on his face.

What he didn't notice was that some small, gray-black figures were quietly approaching.

Felix was then even more distracted by the poor road surface.

Because of the high temperature caused by the explosion just now, the surrounding frozen ground has completely softened, and the road surface under Felix's feet is like thin mud at this moment.

Felix frowned at the mud on his clean boots, but in order to keep himself from falling, he had to concentrate on walking on the edge of the pit.

Not just Felix, but his subordinates as well.

Even the most alert veterans are no exception.

After all, their worst enemy has been eliminated, hasn't it?

Moreover, none of them wanted to fall into the mud and become the laughing stock of their colleagues.

Until......

"Ahh

A sudden scream rang out from the ranks.

All the members of the escort team immediately drew their long swords and looked towards the place where the screams rang out.

A member of the convoy was clutching his wrist, and at his feet was a squished rat.

"Damn it, rat!"

The member cursed under his breath, then signaled to his colleagues that he was okay.

"You must have touched the honey on your wrist, otherwise how could a rat bite you?"

"yes!"

Then there was a burst of laughter.

Listening to such laughter, Felix didn't care.

However, the sense of crisis that inexplicably rose in his heart made him can't help but look around.

Then, the squad leader, who had excellent eyesight, noticed that something was wrong.

His face changed dramatically.

"Attention!"

He reminded his subordinates loudly.

But, it's late.

Swarms of rats rushed up.

One hundred and fifty rats, divided into two teams, and the division of labor is clear.

Each of them will rush towards a member of the royal guard, and the remaining fifty rats will go straight to the warhorse.

Wow!

One by one, the rats showed their sharp teeth, wantonly biting the neck and hips of the war horse, and after a few bites, they replaced the next one.

The pain made the warhorses' bodies writhe non-stop, and the most directly affected was their owners.

The members of the escort team standing on the side of the war horse were already in a hurry by the sudden rats, and at this time, they were either knocked to the ground by their own war horses or brought to the ground.

Originally, with the strength of these escort members, it would not be so unbearable.

But the relaxation after the destruction of the great enemy made them less vigilant.

Coupled with the thin mud on the ground, their strength has been greatly limited.

Therefore, there is such a strange picture -

A group of rats achieved a brief victory against the most elite troops of the Etandine Kingdom.

The reason why it is said to be a short-lived victory.

Naturally, the rat's teeth can't do any fatal damage to this team.

Unless it's a bite on the neck or something.

And the odds of that are too small.

It can be said that it is negligible.

But it's not just rats that are appearing at this moment.

Felix, who knew this, yelled.

"Assemble!"

"Assemble!"

The rat had already been pinched to death by him.

However, Felix did not let his guard down, he knew very well that the rats were nothing more than tools for the enemy to disrupt the rhythm, and the real killing move was still to come.

At this time, it is natural to gather the team and gather strength again.

But before the team could gather, the shadow under Felix's feet was distorted, and the upper evil spirit came out, and the palm of his hand swept over the opponent's neck.

Burst!

Blood spurted out, and Felix clutched his throat and fell to the ground in disbelief.

Felix, who had been very wary since the appearance of the rat, couldn't believe that the enemy was hiding in his shadow.

Looking at Felix who fell to the ground, the high-ranking evil spirit who had been hiding for a long time and used illusions to create fog glanced at the corners of his mouth.

It's much easier than it thinks.

These guys came prepared.

And with a clear goal.

This is not good news for most people, but it is good news for the higher evil spirits.

Come prepared, naturally, it is targeted.

To put it simply, it is far easier to deal with a group of preconceived people than it is to deal with an enemy who is on guard at every turn.

However, the other party's ability was still beyond the expectations of the superior evil spirit.

"Being able to establish a kingdom on a land with gods is really not a simple thing."

The superior demon whispered to himself.

The kind of fighting method that gathers the strength of many people and melts into one person, the high-ranking evil spirits will not be underestimated.

It shares the same idea as its boss: quantitative change causes qualitative change.

That's just a hundred.

What if it's a thousand?

I'm afraid that even with its immortal nature, it will suffer an irreversible blow.

And what if it were 10,000 people?

It is estimated that the God of War, the Lady of Calamity, and the like will have to avoid its edge.

Of course, the weaknesses are obvious.

That 'one person' wasn't picked at random.

It's not just people, it's also about swords.

The superior evil spirit, who possessed sufficient equivalent mystical knowledge, picked up Felix's sword without hesitation, smiled at the members of the royal family guard who rushed towards it, waved his hand, and disappeared in place.

And then......

The fog reappeared.

Angry shouts turned to horror at will.

Then?

Gradually silent.
