Being a knight is not easy

Chapter 132 Betrayal
The appearance of Cress made it impossible for the two legendary knights beside Marquis Sonata to hide safely in the back to protect the Marquis. The two of them joined forces to restrain Cress.

However, the Wizard Council has more than one official wizard in Obedi City, not to mention that Cress is a first-ring peak wizard.

"Odom isn't here, so we can only rely on ourselves. Alina, be careful."

Robin took a quick look at the battlefield, then disappeared from everyone's sight.

Robin's figure disappeared like a ghost in the chaotic battlefield. His movements were light and quick, as if he merged with the shadows around him.

Elina and Marquis Sonata looked at each other and understood Robin's intention - he was looking for the best sniper position, ready to use his extremely accurate archery skills to turn the tide of the battle.

At the same time, the battle between Cress and the two legendary knights has entered a white-hot stage.

Cress's magic was incredibly powerful, and the black energy waves swept over like a violent storm. Although the two legendary knights were powerful, they still seemed to be struggling under Cress's suppression.

"Hmph, a mere knight dares to compete with a wizard?" Cress sneered, swung his staff suddenly, and a black lightning bolt went straight towards one of the legendary knights.

The knight quickly raised his shield to block, but the power of the black lightning was far beyond his expectations. The shield was shattered in an instant, and his body was knocked back several steps, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, another legendary knight immediately rushed towards Cress with his sword, trying to buy a chance to catch his breath for his companion.

Cress reacted extremely quickly. With a light tap of his staff, an invisible barrier instantly appeared in front of him, easily neutralizing the knight's attack.

"Your struggle is meaningless." There was a hint of sarcasm in Cress's voice. "Obedi City is destined to fall into our control, and you are merely the victims of this change."

Just as Cress was about to launch another attack, an arrow suddenly shot out from the darkness and headed straight for his throat!

Cress reacted extremely quickly. With a wave of his staff, a black energy shield instantly appeared in front of him. The arrow hit the energy shield with a crisp sound and then bounced off.

"Who?!" Cress's gaze quickly swept towards the direction where the arrow came from, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

However, Robin's figure was still hidden in the dark, with no sign of being exposed.

His archery skills were not only accurate but also extremely concealed. Even a strong man like Cress would find it difficult to quickly locate his position in the chaotic battlefield.

"Alan, good job!" Elina whispered, a glint of excitement in her eyes.

Marquis Sonata's eyes also lit up. Although Robin's archery skills could not directly defeat Cress, they were enough to distract him and gain more opportunities for the two legendary knights.

Sure enough, when Cress was distracted to deal with Robin's arrows, the two legendary knights quickly adjusted their status and launched another fierce attack.

They cooperated very well, one attacking and the other defending, trying to find Kress's flaws.

After all, Cress's strength far exceeds that of ordinary wizards, and his magic shield is almost impenetrable. Although the attacks of the two legendary knights are fierce, they are still unable to break through his defense.

"Do you think you can defeat me like this?" Cress sneered, and suddenly inserted his staff into the ground. A black energy wave centered on him and quickly spread out in all directions.

The two legendary knights retreated quickly, but were still shaken by the aftermath of the energy wave.

Their expressions grew solemn, as they realized that Cress was even more powerful than they had expected. At this moment, Robin's second arrow shot out from the darkness again, this time aiming for Cress's staff!

Cress's reaction was still extremely fast. With a flick of his staff, the arrow was deflected again. However, Robin's arrows seemed endless, shooting one after another from different angles, forcing Cress to distract himself to deal with them.

"Damn bugs!" There was a hint of anger in Cress's voice, and his eyes quickly swept across the battlefield, trying to find Robin's trace.

Robin's figure is always hidden in the dark, as if blending into the shadows.

His arrows were not only accurate, but also had tricky angles, and every shot forced Cress to be distracted to deal with it.

Under the continuous interference, Cress became annoyed and a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes. He swung his staff violently and a black energy wave headed straight for the direction where Robin might be hiding!

"Alan, be careful!" Elina exclaimed, her heart suddenly tightening.

Robin still did not appear, as if he had completely disappeared from the battlefield.

Cress's attack missed, and a black energy wave exploded on the distant wall, stirring up a cloud of dust.

"Hmph, you hid pretty quickly." Cress sneered, with a hint of disdain in his tone.

However, at the moment when he was distracted, the two legendary knights launched another fierce attack. Their attacks swept in like a storm, forcing Cress to respond with all his strength.

The battle entered a stalemate. Although Cress was powerful, he was unable to quickly gain the upper hand due to Robin's interference and the fierce attack of the two legendary knights.

At the same time, Elina and other guards were struggling to resist the attacks of mercenaries and thugs.

The battle in the City Lord's Mansion was extremely fierce. People fell down every second, and the ground was stained red with blood.

"We must hold on!" Elena shouted loudly, and the dagger in her hand flashed like lightning, repelling a mercenary who tried to approach.

However, the situation remains grim.

The power of the Wizard Council is obviously stronger than they expected, and the appearance of Cress makes the battle even more complicated.

Just when everyone felt the pressure doubled, a loud horn sounded suddenly from a distance.

Immediately afterwards, a fully armed army quickly rushed into the city lord's mansion, led by the commander of the city defense army of Obedi City!
"Reinforcements are coming!" Elina's eyes flashed with hope, and she shouted loudly, "Everyone hold on!"

Unfortunately, the next second, the city defense commander Luo Ang pointed his butcher knife at Marquis Sonata.

In a short time, all of Marquis Sonata's personal guards were killed and thrown into chaos.

"Luo Ang! Are you crazy?!" Marquis Sonata's roar echoed across the chaotic battlefield, his eyes filled with shock and anger. He had never imagined that the commander of the city defense forces he trusted would betray him at this critical moment and turn the knife against his own people!
Luo Ang's face showed no trace of guilt, but rather a cold smile. The longsword in his hand was stained with blood, the tip of the blade pointed directly at Marquis Sonata. His voice was cold and full of sarcasm: "My Lord Marquis, times have changed. The Wizarding Council is the ruler of the future, and you... are just a remnant of the old times."

"You actually defected to the Wizard Council!" Marquis Sonata's voice was filled with incredible anger. "Luo Ang, I treated you well, why did you betray me?!"
