"Welcome, adventurer."

As soon as Celestine and his party stepped onto the top platform, Edwin Van Cleef, the leader of the Defia Brotherhood, appeared and said to them with his arms outstretched left and right in the middle of the platform:

"You've overcome a lot of challenges, and you've finally come to me, and you've even beaten Mr. Heavy Punch, which is really good."

Edwin Van Cleef clapped his hands "Bang Bang Bang".

Evelene immediately reminded the crowd, "Beware of deception."

At this time, Edwin Van Cleef seemed to be the only one on the top platform of the ship, but Evelene, who was a stalker, instinctively sensed that there were many people on the platform.

Celestine also turned his head sideways and gave Evelene a look in understanding, and then he stepped forward and said to Edwin Van Cleef, "Surrender, Van Cleef, you have no way out."

"Surrender? Hah!"

Van Cleef sneered a few times and said, "It's impossible to surrender, it's impossible to surrender in this life, at least until I overthrow all that garbage in Stormwind City, I will never surrender!"

Then Van Cleef changed his words:

"On the contrary, I heard you report yourself to your home, and you said you were Celestein?"

Celestein: "yes, what's wrong?"

Van Cleef: "Sure enough, you're a relative of Orison, the owner of the Golden-Rose Inn in the Stormwind business district."

Celestein's brow twitched slightly, she didn't expect Van Cleef to know so much about herself.

Van Cleef also noticed the change in Celestine's micro-expression, and knew that his words had an effect on her, so he continued:

"I've been in Stormwind before, too, but the nobles there,

Those greedy, stupid, and evil nobles have stung me deeply!"

"Celestein, you and I are the same, the same civilian class from Stormwind, and the same hard work to make a good living through labor."

"But the result? And the result!"

Speaking of Stormwind and the past, Van Cleef slapped his hand on his chest excitedly and shouted, "I'm standing here, and you're standing across from me, we're going to fight each other, but those nobles still spend all their time drinking."

At this point, Van Cleef paused for a few seconds, observed the change in Celestein's expression, and said, "Don't you want to change all this? Are you willing to let Stormwind be ruled by those worms?"

At this point, Van Cleef stretched out his right hand to Celestine, "So, join me, Celestine, you and I are the same, let's overthrow Stormwind together!"

As soon as Van Cleeff finished speaking, Cato Sicarus, who was behind Celestein, drew his long sword and wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Catarina Greyfax next to him:

"Don't worry, Sicarius, trust Celestein."

Immediately, Celestine spoke, "I know, Uncle Van Cleef, Aunt Orison had a good relationship with you when you were the head of the Masons' Guild. But then you disappeared, and Aunt Orison kept talking about you for a while, until you became the leader of the Brotherhood of Defia."

"I know that you led the Stonemasons Guild in rebuilding Stormwind; I also know that when you finished the construction, you were deprived of all your wages by the nobles, and almost starved the entire stonemasons' guild to death on the streets."

「

That's right, Uncle Van Cleef, as you said, the nobles of Stormwind are all worms, and they can't manage the country at all."

"But I'm not going to join you."

Hearing this, Van Cleef snorted and pulled out two scimitars, but Celestine's words continued:

"Uncle Van Cleef, because you're wrong."

Celestine also drew her broadsword, but her words did not stop: "I know that you founded the Brotherhood of Defia to help your colleagues in the Stonemason's Guild, but look at what has become of the Brotherhood of Defia now? They robbed houses and houses, and plundered everywhere, and did all kinds of evil."

"Your brotherhood is no longer the stonemasons it once was, they

It has completely become a criminal gang of bandits and villains."

"It seems to me, Uncle Van Cleve, that you are no different from the worms in Stormwind, except that you have a different way of oppressing the people."

"You know, Uncle Van Cleef, I've been waiting for this day when I slain the first Defia bandit at Northcounty Abbey, so that you can have peace forever!"

Van Cleef snorted and threw a flashbang and "disappeared" on the spot.

Celestine raised her broadsword and looked around warily.

This is the base of the Brotherhood of Defia, here is everything that Van Cleef has worked so hard to manage, he will not give up here, he will definitely fight to the end.

"Up!"

Sure enough, just a few seconds later, more than a dozen figures emerged from the darkness and attacked Celestine and her team.

"I, Cato-Sicarius will defeat them!"

Cato-Sicarius, who had been prepared, raised

The big sword in his hand slashed towards the nearest Defiya black-clothed guard.

The Black-clad Guards, clad in black leather armor and armed with sharp daggers, were Van Cleef's most loyal and elite men.

"Cut, these guys are a bit of a nuisance!"

Just one photograph of Evereni felt tricky, the black-clothed guard in front of her was athletic, and she couldn't get any favors.

Belisarius Kaur was also hunted down by several black-clad guards, but fortunately, as a mage, he was able to perform the "flash magic", which allowed him to successfully distance himself from his opponent by teleporting in a small area, and took out his engineering device.

"That's enough, Belisarius-Kaul, stop playing with your engineering device, and be careful of electrocuting yourself again."

Katarina Greyfax shouted at Celestine while throwing a "Truth Word-Shield" at Belisarius Kaur:

"Salestin, kill Edwin Van Cleef and put an end to this!"

And the battle of fate between Celestine and Edwin Van Cleef has already begun.

Celestine kept her guard at the top of her sword and scanned her surroundings with a sharp gaze, knowing that Edwin Van Cleef was around.

Unlike the strong Minotaur warrior Mr. Heavy-Handed, Edwin Van Cleef was trained by Master Shore in his early years at MI7 and is a good stalker, so his fighting style is not a head-on fight, but a stealth assassination, so Celestine must be careful.

"Whoosh!"

It's too late, it's too fast, the sound of the blade cutting through the air came from the left side of Celestein, and Celestine immediately turned to look at the left side for the first time, but there was a sharp pain in his right arm!

"Thorns

It's here!"

It was the sound of a blade cutting through flesh, it turned out that the sound of the sky breaking on the left was the decoy, and the right was the real direction of Van Cleef's attack, and the seasoned stalker disappeared into the shadows once more.

Strange, the wound is not as deep as imagined?

Celestine glanced at the injury on his right upper arm, which didn't seem to affect his ability to raise his sword, could it be that Van Cleef's attack was wrong?

But just a few seconds later, Celestine immediately noticed the problem, the wound on his right arm was bleeding nonstop, even if Celestine took the time to cast the healing spell "Holy Light Flash", it still couldn't stop the blood from dripping from the wound.

Van Cleef's attack didn't miss at all, it was the Stalker's signature skill, "Severance", a sinister killing move that would make his opponent bleed. As time went on, Celestein's blood was losing and she was bound to fall.

No, I can't go on like this, I have to defeat it immediately......

Just as Celestine began to get impatient, for some reason, the figure in gold armor and glowing golden (Michaela?) The sudden popping into her mind also calmed Celestine.

Why did Van Cleef choose bloodletting tactics? Why didn't he use the stalker's ferocious assassination skills, but instead consume me with bloodshed?

Celestine immediately thought of the answer, because before I was with the heavy punch first

He watched all the battles in his eyes, and even the strong Minotaur warriors were knocked out from the front by himself, so of course Van Cleef, who is a stalker, would not face him head-on, and would definitely use the stealth advantage to consume me through bloodletting tactics.

So what should I do?

The golden body in the brain

Shadow uttered a mysterious voice: "Seize the opportunity to decide the winner with one blow!"

The Emperor's guidance (Michaela: Sneeze) suddenly rings in Celestein's head, and the paladin fully believes the mysterious voice.

"Light, give me power!"

At this time, the sound of breaking the sky sounded again on the left side of Celestein, and Van Cleeff used this trick to trick Celestine and successfully cut a bleeding wound on her right arm.

"Trust your own judgment."

The voice of the "Emperor" sounded in Celestine's head again, and this time the paladin did not hesitate, the golden wings of light spread out from behind her, the holy light shining on her body, and the power of the holy light was infused into her weapons.

"Vengeful Fury!"

"Crusader Strike!"

Without hesitation, Celestine raised her greatsword and slashed at the left side where the sound of breaking the sky came, and this time, the touch from the greatsword showed that she had slashed!

"Ahh

With a scream, Van Cleef, who was stabbed in the chest, fell to the ground, and seeing the leader fall, even the most elite Defia black-clad guards completely lost their fighting spirit, and they all dropped their weapons and fled.

"You lost."

Celestine walked up to Van Cleef.

Van Cleef used his last strength to prop himself up, sat on the ground, looked at Celestine and said, "Fool, my actions are right!"

However, Celestine shook his head, "I'm sorry, Uncle Van Cleef, your actions have long been unjust."

With that, Celestine put away his sword and landed to give Van Cleef a hard time. Just, looking at the corpse in front of him, Celestein

Lowered his head and said secretly:

"Actually, you're right, the worms of Stormwind are all bastards, and I hope I'll be able to clean them all up someday, but not in your way."

"I knew you could do it."

As the battle ended, Greyfax walked over to Celestein's side and said as she cast a healing spell to heal her wounds:

"Cut off Van Cleef's head as evidence and bring it back."

Originally, Celestine wanted to raise her sword, but at this time, she suddenly saw that in the room on the top of the boat, the door opened a crack, and there seemed to be a little girl inside!

Could it be ......

In the end, Celestine put down his sword and said, "There's no need, leave him a whole corpse, we can just use his ring as evidence."

In this way, the five members of Celestein's squad returned to Sentinel Ridge in the Western Wilderness with the news of the victory.

Gryan Stallman, leader of the Wild West People's Army, smiled when he saw Van Cleef's ring and confirmed his death.

The people of the Wild West have been oppressed by the Brotherhood of Defia for too long, too long!

"Well done!"

Grian Stallman handed Celestine a large bag of coins and said, "That's a good reward, thank you so much."

It was supposed to be over here, but Grian Stallman suddenly thought of something and spoke again:

"By the way, I heard that Stormwind is recruiting warriors to go to Arathi to support allies, you guys are so skilled, do you plan to sign up? I happened to meet a few friends in Stormwind......
