The sun shines through the leaves on the shrubs and weeds in the forest, and although it is already noon, some plants can still be seen in the woods where most of the light is blocked by the dense foliage of the top layer. This peaceful sight did not last long.

A hand wearing a knight's hand tore off a clump of leaves, and without hesitation, he put it in his mouth and sucked it. The man in the woods was in a state of disarray, his form almost completely obscured by the scars and mud. However, from the armor he was wearing, he could still vaguely see the appearance of a knight of the kingdom.

A small amount of dew on the leaves was certainly not enough to satisfy the thirsty man, and they could only slightly moisten the knight's parched lips. But even so, the cool and moist feeling in his mouth cleared his mind a little. The knight sat down against the tree behind him, he was so tired that he hadn't closed his eyes for three days, and even Leon, known as the Blood Lion, had to bow his head to the limits of his body.

However, as soon as the chief knight relaxed, the sound of leaves being plucked from his direction was heard. Leon's eyes widened instantly, and he instinctively wanted to stand up, but the distance between the knight chief and the thing behind the bushes was no longer enough for him to do so. Leon's hands groped on the ground beside him, trying to find a stone that could be used as a weapon, his saber had long since disappeared in the melee, and with his separation from his own men, the situation was desperate for him.

The wind in the woods blew from the wind and reached the nose of the chief knight. The stench of decay convinced Leon that the thing that was now stalemate with him behind the bushes was undoubtedly a nezumi. This also made his back unconsciously break out in a cold sweat, but at this time, his right hand finally grabbed a stone with a sharp edge in the grass, and Leon held the stone firmly in his hand, ready to use it to deal a fatal blow to the damned nezumi.

Before Leon could find his opponent's position, more voices came from the upper wind. At this moment, the knight's heart sank instantly. A single nezumi still has the strength to fight, but in the face of two or more nezumi besieged him, even if he can kill one of them, what is the point? The rest of the nezumi have plenty of time to crush their necks.

"Hiss ......" may have given the nezumi who had first followed Leon enough courage to look like a black thin nezumi who looked to be only about 1.4 meters away, and appeared in front of Leon with a big grin.

Lesser nezumi, or rather, inferior nezumi. Leon's pupils contracted at the sight of the enemy, he knew the nezumi. These skinny and obscene species are the nezumi species that have only recently appeared, and as their name suggests, they are nowhere near as strong and intelligent as normal native nezumi. On the other hand, they are grouped in groups when they appear.

The presence of these nezumi had caused a lot of trouble for the soldiers who had blocked the border, as they were more like brainless insects or aimless walking corpses than the proto-nezumi who were closer to beasts. They roam in large groups at night, with no purpose at all, but at the same time they are not afraid to attack any creature that comes into their sight, whether it is humans or beasts such as deer.

As the first nezumi walked out of the bushes, four more similar nezumi came out from behind the bushes, and the five pairs of godless eyes looked at the chief knight sitting by the tree, and the scene was strange and scary.

Seeing that the other party was just a bad rat man, Leon had some hope in his heart. It is true that his current body is not enough to fight fiercely, but unlike the strong flesh of the original nezumi, the knight captain, who has fought many times with the inferior nezumi, knows that the physical toughness of these guys is not even comparable to that of ordinary humans. Their slender and fragile skeletons are not enough for them to grow strong muscles to protect their internal organs, and it only takes one effective blow for Leon to kill them.

"It doesn't look like it's time for me to leave. The knight muttered to himself, his voice hoarse from thirst. However, the sharp killing intent in Leon's eyes did not weaken because of the exhaustion of his body.

After discovering that his prey seemed to be incapacitated, the leading nezumi finally made up his mind to end the hunt. It began to secrete a lot of saliva from its mouth, and it was clear that even if it had become very weak, Leon's meat was a rare delicacy for these creatures.

"Gaha!" a terrible roar came out of the rat-like mouth, and the rat-man lunged at Leon.

The chief knight was not frightened by this attack, he was waiting for this moment, but Leon's eyes were not on the nezumi who pounced on him at this time, his gaze was rapidly rotating on the other four nezumi, and he quickly calculated in his heart how to use the simplest action to catch these guys.

It all happened in the blink of an eye, and when Leon turned his gaze back to the nezumi that was rushing at him, a smile was already on his lips. Roll, get up, and hit your opponent the back of the head with a stone. These three actions were performed by the Knight Captain in an instantaneous manner at an extremely fast speed. The remaining four nezumi only felt a flower in front of them, and the prey that had been sitting under the tree had already stood up, and the stone in his hand had accurately smashed the back of the head of his companion who had pounced on him.

"Come on, you monsters!" Leon was not allowed to say anything more, and seeing the death of his companion, the remaining four nezumi let out strange screams and rushed towards him at the same time.

The knight chief used the last strength to slam into the nezumi closest to him, and the stone in his hand was sent into the opponent's jaw. At the same time, Leon's right foot gently kicked the ground, and with inertia, his body completed a change of direction in the air, and the knight in armor slammed into the arms of the second nezumi, causing the unlucky man to let out a short scream.

"Hah!" Before the body fell with the second nezumi, Leon's right hand pulled the stone out of the neck of the first nezumi and threw it towards the head of the other nezumi, which contained the full power of the knight chief, although it failed to shatter the enemy's skull as Leon had imagined, but the third nezumi was also knocked unconscious by the flying stone.

"Poof!" the sound of flesh falling to the ground, from Leon meeting the four nezumi to his coherent action of eliminating three of them with only one breath of time. With the sound of falling to the ground at the same time, the only remaining nezumi watched in a daze as everyone around him fell to the ground except himself. But the difference is that among the four bodies that fell to the ground, only Leon still has a sober will.

If it is a normal human or beast, seeing this scene will inevitably be shocked by the knight's skill, even if he will not run away on the spot, he will have a lot of fear of Leon and no longer act easily. But the nezumi didn't have so many ideas, and after finding Leon's location again, the fourth nezumi opened its mouth without hesitation and bit it towards the knight's neck.

The smell in the mouth of the rat man is enough to drive a person with a normal sense of smell crazy, and it's hard to imagine how a creature's mouth could become so stinky. But Leon didn't have time to think about it at this time, and in his sight, the disgusting mouth was gradually enlarged, and the sharp teeth of that mouth made him have no doubt about the fate of his neck.

It's still a little bit worse. Leon thought that it was already his limit to deal with three nezumi at once, and the knight chief at this time did not have the strength to fight against this only remaining enemy anyway. In fact, let alone confrontation, Leon now doesn't even have the strength to move a finger.

"Hum!" Just as the nezumi's teeth were about to touch Leon's neck, a heavy sound of breaking wind came from not far from the trees, and a knight's one-handed sword swirled in the air and flew towards the nezumi's head, its blade piercing the nezumi's temple without any suspense!
