Great Nobleman.

Chapter 2012 No martial ethics!

While Finia was momentarily stunned by the relentless charge of these Firebat Demons.

Under Brand's control, the Knight Golem has begun to continuously draw its bow and shoot down the 'elite demons' that are comparable to regular knights!
Although the Knight Golem doesn't know any knightly tricks, its archery skills can only be described as 'standard'.

However, with the magical longbow meticulously crafted by Brand, and the double enhancement of arrows with effects and characteristics such as [Lock-on Tracking], [Sharpness], and [Armor Penetration], it is a powerful weapon.

Every arrow it shoots possesses immense power and hits its target every time.

—At present, these [Firebat Demons], which are at most 'high-level elites', are simply no match for them!

At first, Brand was having a lot of fun.

However, as time went by, more and more Firebat Demons joined the battlefield and increasingly broke through the city's anti-air defenses.

Brand couldn't help but purse his lips, slightly dissatisfied, and said:
"Attacks by shooting arrows one by one are ultimately too inefficient."

Unfortunately, the Knight Golem can't empty its quiver in the blink of an eye like the Grand Master or Hessalis!

As the knight golem drew its bow and nocked an arrow, another Firebat Demon's chest exploded open, and it fell helplessly to the ground.

Catherine, who was standing to the side, spoke up:

"The knight golem is ultimately just a lifeless creation; it certainly can't use knightly secret techniques."

"I think young master might equip it with a rapid-fire magic crossbow later, since it relies entirely on young master's magic equipment, doesn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Brand thought it made sense.

Of course, this matter can only be discussed later.

As I was lost in thought, the continuous shaking of the image suddenly intensified.

While controlling the knight golem to continue its attacks, he glanced at the distant siege battlefield.

Evelyn was already holding the magnificent azure greatsword that had been made for her, and she led the attack in her elven form.

Accompanying him were a group of powerful knights and other great warriors, as well as two dragonborn elven archmages and a dragonborn Titan orc-level golden lionman!

In contrast, two previously hidden Demon Kings have emerged from the relentless demon army's offensive.

With the addition of the two [Demon Lava Giants], the eight top-tier experts were already locked in battle in mid-air outside the city.

Amid the intense aftermath of the battle, the siege fighting below came to a standstill for a time.

However, as their battlefield rose higher and higher, the demon army continued its attack at an extremely fast pace!

On the western outskirts of the Emerald City, as the demon army pressed its attack more and more fiercely, the crimson flames burned ever brighter in that direction!
Just then, Jon suddenly shouted from behind:
"Watch the aftermath!"

Upon hearing this, Brand ordered the knight golem to halt its attack.

next moment.

As the ground beneath their feet trembled violently once more, the weapons of war behind them roared once more.

A dazzling blue light suddenly erupted behind their heads once again and shot out.

At the same time, wild water elements swept across this top-floor platform.

In response, the Knight Golem, which is essentially a Great Knight Golem, remained unmoved.

However, Brand noticed that Finia, who was standing next to him, was about to stumble and fall to the ground.

Just as she was about to ask the knight golem to lend a hand, Finia, regaining her senses, quickly activated her knight's secret technique.

After the wind element was amplified by the knight's secret technique and surrounded her entire body, her body returned to its previous position like a phantom.

—【Knight's Secret Technique: Wind King Incarnation】!
Seeing this, the knight golem said in a deep voice:
"Stay focused; it's dangerous to lose focus on the battlefield."

Upon hearing this, Finia responded with some shame:
"terribly sorry……"

Before she could finish speaking, Stella, her body ablaze with magic, shouted a reminder:
"Attention! A powerful enemy is approaching!"

Upon hearing this, everyone on the platform became more vigilant.

And as the aftershocks of the war subsided rapidly.

Everyone turned to the side of the platform, above the Dragon Palace barrier, which was about a hundred meters away!

At this moment, a Grand Demon-level Lava Demon wielding a giant scythe is stepping through a 'flaming gate' opened by several [Firebat Demons] working together!
Without any hesitation, Stella pointed the staff in her hand, which was inlaid with a huge blue magic gem, forward!

The next moment, a giant blue falcon composed of wind elements appeared above the platform and then charged towards the location of the 'Flame Gate' at lightning speed!
——【High-level Ascension Spell: Sky-Piercing Azure Falcon】!
In the blink of an eye, the azure storm collided with the hastily defended flames, then suppressed them and forced them to retreat!
They followed closely behind, giving the teleported demon no chance.

The secondary war weapons in various locations of the Dragon Palace quickly turned and launched continuous attacks on it.

As the opponent's aura plummeted under the continuous blows, it began to fall towards the city streets outside the Dragon Palace.

A dragonborn dwarf warrior, who had been lurking in that area, suddenly appeared and delivered the fatal blow!
Seeing this, some people couldn't help but exclaim excitedly:
"Well done!"

It's certainly gratifying that everyone worked together to kill a powerful enemy. However, with more and more, and stronger, [Firebat Demons] continuing to swoop down...

Nobody really had the time or inclination to celebrate.

As time went on...

More powerful demons either teleported or charged down from the sky without any attempt to conceal their attacks.

More powerful figures hidden within the city were forced to reveal themselves to stop the enemy.

As a key target of the enemy's attack, the Dragon Palace's barrier was indeed very strong, but it eventually developed holes and breaches under the enemy's continuous attacks!
With the great demons continuously drawing fire.

Numerous Firebat Demons successfully entered the Dragon Palace area through these holes.

Subsequently, a considerable number of the Firebat Demons directly attacked the area where war weapons were deployed.

Worth mentioning:
Although the platform where the knight golem is located is equipped with the most powerful war weapon in the entire Dragon Palace.

However, the Firebat Demons deliberately bypassed this area and launched attacks in other places instead.

If you want to tell me the reason.

In addition to the powerful barrier protecting this spacious platform, Stella, the dragon-born mage, also activated a magical field!
—If there is no equal or even greater force to counter it, absolute power will reveal its supreme authority!
However, one of the characteristics of the battlefield is that it is full of uncertainty.

Stella is strong, but she is not invincible on this battlefield.

The two sides were locked in fierce combat.

Jon, who was in charge of leading the team and controlling the weapons of war, roared once again, "Watch out for the aftershocks!"

The massive war machine roared once again toward the highest battlefield in the distant sky, sending out support as chaotic water elements swept across, briefly obscuring everyone's senses.

A fiery gate suddenly opened to the left and right sides of the platform!

Immediately following, a spear wreathed in crimson flames suddenly shot out at incredible speed.

The accompanying powerful force directly shattered the flame gate into nothingness.

When the people on the platform noticed the presence of the spear.

It had already pierced through the last barrier covering the platform and was hurtling toward Stella, who was maintaining her magical field, with undiminished power!

In the nick of time, the knight golem released his longbow and arrows.

As it suddenly slammed into Stella, who was right beside it, it also reached back with both hands and gripped the handle of the giant gun it was carrying on its back.

Then, with its eyes turning bloodshot, it activated its overload mode and slammed the giant spear's deep blue crystal-like blade forward with all its might!

The next moment, the blade of the giant spear struck the piercing spearhead precisely!
The powerful forces attached to the weapons collided with each other.

The crimson flames attached to the spear suddenly expanded, fiercely clashing with the water element that exploded simultaneously on the blade!
After a moment of stalemate, the two crossed paths.

The spear, bursting with crimson flames, merely deflected slightly before continuing forward.

It mercilessly devoured the sublime water elemental spell that exploded on the giant spear, slanting downwards, grazing the side of the knight golem, piercing through the platform's ground, and reaching far beyond the distant city!

He glanced at the departing spear, then quickly looked at the massive spear blade in the knight golem's hand, which was covered in fine cracks, and at the numerous defensive measures that had been passively activated and destroyed in that brief collision.

Brand asked in surprise:

"It's actually an attack at the level of the [Demon King]."

As it spoke, the knight golem's perspective swept over the unharmed crowd around it before quickly turning back to the battlefield in the sky.

Immediately afterwards, Brand quickly discovered that a Demon King with the same aura as the spear from before was being surrounded and killed by Evelyn and the others.

After confirming the source of the attack, Catherine frowned and said:

"They have no sportsmanship at all; they actually launched a sneak attack!"

Celine waved her hand and said:

"You can't say that. After all, this weapon of war has ambushed them several times, hasn't it?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Finia's voice came from the empty screen:

"Mr. Bernard, your longbow!"

The knight golem turned its head and saw that Finia had picked up the longbow and arrows it had just thrown away.

Under Brand's control, the knight golem slung the giant spear behind its back, then quickly took the longbow and arrows handed to it by Finia, preparing to continue the battle.

However, after glancing at Stella, who was still slumped on the ground staring blankly at him, the knight golem said in a deep voice:

"Don't stand there! Get up and keep fighting!"
