Chapter 266: Faith
There were screams from the battlefield one after another, this was that Leon was showing his might, killing the centaurs so that he no longer had the courage to surround him, and scattered his hooves and fled in the direction of the border.
I have to say that when this young lord put aside the idea of comprehending the combat skills in the battle and began to use it with all his might, his combat power was raised by one level compared to just now.
The young man put away his sword and grabbed the hind legs of a centaur with both hands, then picked it up and spun it around a few times, as if performing another version of the whirlwind slash, and then he let go and threw the centaur at a four-hoofed creature that was galloping not far away.
The two huge bodies collided together and immediately turned into a rolling gourd, and Leon galloped away, sitting on the back of a centaur and grabbing its neck and breaking it back, if this time it was realized, the centaur would definitely be killed directly.
However, Erin's voice came from the carriage, "Leon, leave a few alive!"
As soon as Leon moved, he immediately changed his way and punched the opponent in the back of the head, knocking him unconscious.
"Red, catch a few alive!"
The big man with the giant blade was chasing the kobold with an unhappy face, because when Sapa was there just now, he was defeated by a gap of fifteen enemies, so now even if the kobold had almost fled, he was still chasing and killing unrelentingly.
Hearing Leon's words, Red glanced at the four-hoofed creature that was fleeing in his direction, and cracked his mouth and smiled.
"Okay, leave it to me!"
The strong man thrust his giant blade into the ground and faced a centaur with his bare hands, although the centaur was already full of fear of Leon, but he did not have so many scruples in the face of another strange enemy, and the crude machete whistled over, and at the same time launched a charge. As long as this human is dead, there will be no more obstacles in front of it, and they can escape all the way back to the Pale Mountains.
Red suddenly half-crouched down, and although he dodged the weapon coming from the left, he was facing the body of the opponent who was colliding with him. His legs were apart, his hands came forward, and he hugged the centaur.
The powerful impact caused Red to take a dozen steps back, but the distance also allowed him to steady his footsteps, and then with the residual strength of the impact, he leaned back with the body of the centaur, and actually pierced the enemy headfirst on the ground.
Red stood up and looked at the already dazed enemy, and spat on the ground with a "phew", thinking to himself, "Seeing that Leon is not as difficult to deal with centaurs as I am...... How strong is this kid?"
The Master of Special Weapons is a third-order class in the Warrior's Path, and although it is a bit far behind Leon's Vanguard Iron Guard, it is also a relatively rare one.
This profession was called "Warrior Warrior" during the Age of Faith, but was gradually replaced by the name Master of Special Weapons in the Age of Change. They prefer large, two-handed weapons, such as axes, hammers, scythes, or swords, and possess great strength and a superior constitution, as this is the only way to inflict damage on enemies with weapons weighing up to hundreds of pounds.
So Red has always been proud of his strength, but he didn't expect that after meeting Li Ang, even this self-confidence was hit.
"No wonder the little girls say he's a monster, I'm okay with him!" Thinking of this, the rough man regained his confidence and chased after another centaur not far away.
The battle ended in ten minutes, and the hundreds of aborigines who invaded the border only fled back to more than a hundred, if they were really to be hunted down, it was estimated that these creatures would not even reach the edge of the Pale Mountains and would be wiped out, but Red's construction was vetoed by Leon.
"Don't chase them, I'm just going to let them go back," Leon looked at the human corpses scattered all over the ground, his face was a little unpleasant, "Let these remnants bring back the news of the defeat, so that those aborigines know that daring to attack Campbell is the only end." ”
"What if this defeat angers them, and the next time a larger invasion is launched?"
Luthor's voice came from behind, and Leon quickly turned around and nodded to the deputy commander.
If it weren't for Luthor and the entire garrison of Fort Mark to suffer huge casualties and hold the enemy back here, I'm afraid that even if Leon could rush back, he would only see the bloody Brown Dirt Town. This behavior can no longer be explained by Luthor's relationship with his grandfather, but rather his sense of mission to stick to his duty and be willing to pay with his life for it.
This is a respectable military man.
Leon said respectfully to the deputy commander, "The invasion of the natives has been going on for a long time, and if they had the ability to organize a series of large-scale invasions, it is estimated that they would have done so a long time ago. ”
"And after many years of teaching my grandfather a lesson, the aborigines have disappeared for a long time, only recently they have become more frequent, not to mention whether anyone has leaked the news of my grandfather's death, which shows that they are nothing more than creatures who are afraid of the weak. ”
"Letting them send the news back should dispel some of the aboriginal races from wanting to take advantage of the opportunity, but even if they do, they should be driven back. ”
After today's battle, anyone can see that Leon has the qualifications to say this.
Luthor smiled faintly, "That's right, I already have some lord's confidence." ”
"That's what you taught!" Leon gave a sycophant.
"Nonsense!" Luther disagreed, "what does it have to do with me? It's the result of your own efforts, and while I don't approve of you running around, I can't help but admit that this experience will make you grow faster." ”
Then Luthor patted the young man on the shoulder, "But it's good to be back, and I'm glad to see how fast you've grown!"
Li Ang quickly changed the topic, otherwise if he let the old man boast again, maybe he would have to mention the ridiculous things that he had done "himself" before.
"Uncle Luther, there are quite a few enemies this time, why did you bring these soldiers here?
"Yes......" Luthor really didn't continue the topic just now, and said a little helplessly: "Lu Lin is on a mission, and even I don't know where he is, otherwise I wouldn't be too concerned about the number of these enemies." ”
Hearing the other party's words, Li Ang suddenly remembered something, and immediately became stern, "In that case, have you asked Fort Edd for help?"
As the deputy commander of the Border Guard Detachment at Fort Mark, in the face of such a large number of enemies and the obvious lack of his own troops, it is impossible to forget that there is a border army stationed in another military fortress not far away.
Luthor smiled, "They also have their side of the problem, and it is likely that they will not be able to send reinforcements. ”
Although he was very angry that Fort Edd did not have a single soldier to come to support, but now that he has won a big victory, he doesn't want to talk too much about this matter, one is that he doesn't want Leon to know, because young people of this age are generally very enthusiastic, and after hearing the situation, they are likely to make some actions against Fort Edward, and if there is a dispute between the lord and the border army stationed in the territory, it will affect the relationship between Leon and the garrison. In addition, Luthor was ready to report the matter as soon as he returned to Fort Mark, and the headquarters should give him a reasonable explanation.
So without waiting for Leon to answer, Luthor pointed behind him, "There were many deaths in this battle, and the corpses of the soldiers were collected by my subordinates, what do you do with the corpses of those mercenaries?"
Leon's expression remained unchanged, but he already understood that the other party didn't want to mention Edburgh too much, so he thought about it, and gave up continuing to ask, turning his head to look at the mercenaries who obviously wanted to come over, but had to wait not far away because he was talking to Luther.
"I'm going to build a military cemetery near the manor, and these are browndirt towns, no, mercenaries who gave their lives for Campbell will be buried there. ”
Luthor flashed an appreciative look and nodded, "Very good, then I'll leave first, and visit the manor in a few days." ”
"Don't dare to visit," Li Ang immediately smiled: "You often come over to sit when you are fine, with you in the manor, I am much more sure!"
"Stinky boy......" Luthor couldn't help but smile, but immediately took it back, "Where did you learn to be so oily!"
After saying this, the deputy commander suddenly remembered that the young man on the other side was not known for being a gentleman and nobleman who was messing around with flowers and grass just a few months ago?
Thinking about it this way, the other party has changed too much in a short period of time, and Luthor can't bear to be too harsh for a while.
However, when his gaze swept to the girls behind the young lord, he was a little worried in his heart.
"He's really good right now, but ...... It's just that there are a lot of beautiful little girls around him, but speaking of which, these girls are much stronger than his previous rumored female companions. ”
In the end, the deputy commander did not speak, but just shook his head and left with a mixture of relief, worry, and entanglement.
