Above the wilderness, a small group of elite soldiers of the Prud Empire slowly walked along the only main road.

This is an extremely special area within the territory of the Prud Empire, originally in the vast and fertile plain in the west of the continent, the Lluris Kingdom that relied on the magic guide to start its capital is located on the western coast and occupies the northern half of the plain, and the Prud Empire, which is martial by the whole people, is located in the southeast of the plain and sits on the southern half of the plain, and only the easternmost narrow strip of the plain has been stubbornly guarded by the Prud Empire from south to north, and has never been broken through by the Loris Kingdom.

The reason for this can be traced back to the beginning of the Wizarding Age, when the Kingdom of Loris relied on Magician Engineering to rise. Everyone in the continent knew that the Kingdom of Loris had the best magic technology, and the Warcraft Forest, which was adjacent to the east of the Western Plains, was one of the places with the largest production of magic crystals on the main road. From that time on, the high-level leaders of the Prud Empire, who were also in the Western Plains, knew very well that if the Loris Kingdom was allowed to directly border the Warcraft Forest and obtain a stable and large supply of magic crystals, then it would only be a matter of time before the other party unified the Western Plains.

Marshal Umer, the Imperial Marshal at the time, took the opportunity to build five military fortresses on this narrow strip of land that was still in the hands of the Empire at that time, and left the strongest Iron Legion of the Empire at that time to live here. In the following centuries, almost every generation of the Empire's best commanders and soldiers would thwart the eastward advance of the Kingdom of Loris here again and again. In honor of the wise Imperial Marshal, this narrow strip of land was called the Umel Promenade by the Prudians, and the line of defense was known as the Iron Line.

As a zone where wars of all sizes often break out, the population here is far less than in the rest of the Western Plains. Although nominally the land of the Prud Empire, the Umer Corridor is at best an iron-clad line of defense for the Empire, and the armies in the five fortresses do not deal with anything related to law and order other than defending against attacks from Lloris, so it is also a haven for many wandering bandits and outlaws. In addition, the merchants who smuggle magic crystals from the Warcraft Forest in the east because of their high profits, and the mercenaries and adventurers who travel between the Western Plains and the Warcraft Forest are all common guests in the Umer Corridor.

At this time, the group of soldiers advancing on the main road appeared to have come out of a certain fortress in the north from the direction from which they came, and were advancing along the main road towards the south.

At the front of the team, there were more than a dozen people on horseback, and at the front was a middle-aged man wearing battle armor on a very heroic black war horse.

With short black hair and a beard that is not too long, he looks quite kind but still makes people feel majestic, and people can feel a calm general style at a glance.

Leon, the current leader of the Predator Legion, is also a strong man with a master-level fighting spirit.

Although it is not a hero-level fighting spirit comparable to that of the Seven-Star Sage, the master-level fighting spirit still gives Leon a very high prestige among ordinary soldiers. You must know that as a country that is not a leader in magic technology, although the army of the Prude Empire is also equipped with an armed company of magic guides in the big army, but basically the soldiers are still mainly trained in fighting spirit and martial arts, such an army naturally worships the strong in force, not to mention that Leon is not only a strong personal strength, but also a commander with good ability.

The core of the Iron and Blood Line is the five fortresses, and Leon, as the commander-in-chief of the defense line, is stationed in the third fortress in the center, and on days when there is no fighting, Leon has to go to the other four fortresses every once in a while to make rounds.

Today is the day when León sets out from the Third Fortress and travels to the Fifth Fortress in the far south.

In the accompanying team, riding horses were some of the elites selected by Leon from the personal guards, a five-star elite warlock, and eleven or twelve guards with elite-level fighting spirit, while the others were also a small company drawn from the most elite troops in the third fortress, more than half of the more than a hundred people had a high fighting spirit, and even the captain of one of the squads had the same elite fighting spirit as the general's personal guard.

Although this kind of protection is not completely necessary in terms of Leon's strength, after all, it is the most important defense line of the empire and the commander of the legion, so it is understandable to have this kind of protection around him.

Although no one in the team spoke, it could be seen that whether it was Leon and his personal guards who were walking in the front, or the soldiers in the team, they all had a more or less relaxed atmosphere. After all, according to the imperial spy report, the Kingdom of Loris will be in the battle for the crown prince in the next year or two, and it is almost certain that it will not be able to plan another eastward expansion campaign in a short period of time, so it can be said that it is about to usher in a rare period of peace for the iron-blooded defense line.

The team moved forward unhurriedly, and just as they were about to pass through a small wood, Leon suddenly frowned as he walked in front, and the five-star magician who was only half a horse behind Leon had the same expression.

Fighting Qi can give the user powerful attack and defense power, and if we talk about these two aspects alone, it can be said that Fighting Qi is not much worse than magic, but the use of ordinary Fighting Qi that has not been mutated is basically limited to this, and other aspects, such as long-range detection, are completely useless.

The elite warlock who followed Leon was named Maurice, a magician majoring in the wind system, and a very important subordinate of Leon. As a wind magician, Maurice has a good reputation for lightning magic, the branch of the wind family, but it is not because of his aggressive lightning magic that makes Leon value him, but because of the basic wind magic he is most proficient in, the wind of perception.

“...... General, the wind ahead, is restless. ”

Frowning, Morris said.

Leon nodded, and raised his hand to stop the group, he had just noticed, of course, he was not a magician, he did not rely on inferences like Morris, but a gut that had been cultivated during his long career as a horse told him that something was not quite right in the grove in front of him.

Leon, who was very familiar with Maurice's perceptual magic, had a calm look in his eyes, and he knew that this meant that there was a creature with the will to fight nearby, but Leon himself preferred to understand that there was a murderous presence nearby.

Who is it? The bandits around here wouldn't have such guts, so the people of the Kingdom of Loris?

Just as Leon was rapidly turning these thoughts in his mind and making gestures to prepare the team for battle, suddenly a layer of earthy yellow sand was lifted from the ground in front of the grove, as if a yellow storm swept towards the entire team.

A branch of wind magic, a sand-based magic that blends with terroir.

Maurice did not disappoint Leon, and without pause, he drew his wand from his bosom and pointed it forward, unleashing the corresponding magic.

"O Wind Spirit, please listen to my request!"

In an instant, several small tornadoes scattered in front of the team, blowing away the oncoming sand and dust, and then, a whistle sounded in the woods, and more than two dozen black-clothed people with purple fighting energy jumped out of it, and rushed towards the team one after another.

"Enemy attack!"

Although they had long understood that their side was under attack, Leon's guards and several squad leaders in the team involuntarily shouted these words, not only to remind the soldiers to hurry into the battle mode, but also to warn them that the next battle was about to be a battle for their lives.

The opponent all has an elite fighting spirit, for ordinary soldiers, the elite level fighting spirit can already be regarded as a considerable level of powerhouse, but no one in this team flinched at the moment, but instead discharged the most effective combat formation in the shortest time to meet the impact of the other party.

Seeing the movements of the soldiers, Leon's eyes flashed with pride, yes, this is his Predator Legion.

However, Leon looked at the enemies rushing in front of him, obviously the other party was also prepared, seeing that his side had basically lined up a defensive formation, and the two dozen people on the other side still rushed towards this side without the slightest hesitation and timidity, and in the next second, the opponent's magic support appeared from the grove.

Gravel Spear, Ice Crystal Blade, and Fire Orb. Although it is not a powerful magic, there are quite a few of them.

"General, there are three magicians on the other side, and from the perspective of spell casting efficiency, it can be determined that they are all above four-star strength. ”

The strength level of a magician can't be roughly distinguished and demarcated just by the color of the fighting spirit like the Dou Qi Envoy, and Morris can only judge a bottom line of the opponent's strength.

However, Leon knew in his heart, although he didn't know how to use magic, his intuition told him that since the other party dared to ambush him in such a righteous and bright way, then he would definitely not even have a magician above five stars, and there was basically a qualitative difference in combat strength between a team with a magician and a team without a magician.

"Maurice is in charge of the sand mages, you guys go around and take out the remaining two mages. ”

Having given the order, Leon turned over and dismounted, and took his usual sword from the horse, although he was not afraid of these elite-level fighting spirits with his strength, he did not want to see the other party inflict too many casualties on his soldiers.

The Predator Legion lived up to its name, although the soldiers were almost only high-level and middle-level Fighting Spirit, but with their formation and coordination, they trapped several elite Fighting Qi users in it, and the remaining enemies were shared by the guards around Leon, and at the grove, Morris led a few guards gradually suppressed the three mages who had no melee protection.

However, just as Leon was about to join the battle in person and finish out all the opponents as soon as possible, suddenly several incandescent lights came out from the woods, and two guards close to the woods were hit almost before they could react, and they were instantly pierced by the white light on their thighs and shoulders and fell to the ground screaming.

"It's not good, get back!"

Morris shouted in anger and told the remaining guards to quickly drag the injured two back.

Seeing that the pro-soldiers who were guarding him day and night were put down for no apparent reason, Leon, who had always been calm and calm, was also a little annoyed, and aroused the big red fighting spirit on his body, Leon jumped out of the team, and just a few ordinary fighting qi slashes knocked out several assassins who were fighting with the soldiers nearby, and then fell to Morris, who was struggling to support the defensive enchantment from the opponent's three mages back to protect the guards, and a few fighting qi slashes directly forced several people to stop casting spells and dodge in embarrassment.

"Who is Your Excellency, and why did you attack me?"

Although he has no talent for practicing magic, Leon, who has experienced countless battles as the commander of a large army, still has the eyesight, and the attack just now is not weak, and what is even more surprising is that the preparation time before casting spells is amazingly short, and even Morris has no chance to warn him.

However, a magic guide that can unleash that kind of powerful magic in such a short period of time is a very valuable and high-end item even in the Loris Kingdom.

Just as Leon was speculating on the identity of the other party, a short, surprisingly short figure stepped out of the woods.

Like the three mages, he wore a black cloak, his face mostly shrouded in the hood of the cloak, and only a white chin and a cherry mouth that was almost certain to be a girl's were visible, with a few strands of pale chestnut hair hanging down from the side of the hood.

Little girl?

Leon was a little surprised, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at the one in the other party's hand, and a magic crystal was installed on the thin rod that seemed to be metal, I don't know if it was a magic wand or a magic guide weapon.

"Who is Your Excellency, and for what purpose?"

The second questioning, Leon quickly recovered from his surprise, whether the other party is a little girl or an old man, there is only one identity now, that is, the enemy.

Slowly, the small cherry mouth of the cloak opened, and the voice of a clear girl who sounded a little weak, but implied a faint determination and awareness, sounded.

"My name is Zero...... For the happiness of more people, please sleep here. ”
