Upon seeing the ten figures before him, Baron Hoover abruptly stopped the angry curse that was about to escape his lips.

He could hardly believe his eyes.

Ten people?

How dare you attack my army with only ten men?

Baron Hoover was almost laughing in exasperation at the sight before him.

Although he didn't know the identities of the people before him, Baron Hoover still drew his sword sharply from his waist, raised it, and roared:

"Kill them all!!"

For him, the attack on Daniel was absolutely intolerable.

Upon receiving Baron Hoover's order, the three extraordinary knights immediately turned their horses around, ignoring the mercenaries in the chaotic battlefield, and charged directly at the ten figures clad in black robes.

The remaining soldiers also raised their weapons and aimed at the ten figures.

The distance between the two sides was already very short, and in the blink of an eye, the two groups of people rushed together.

"Go to hell, you bastard!"

A Hoover family knight at the forefront suddenly raised his giant axe and slashed it heavily at the black-robed man wearing a metal mask.

To his surprise, the other party did not try to dodge, but instead raised his shield and charged forward.

This extraordinary knight has served the Hoover family for over ten years and has long since earned the title of intermediate knight through trials.

  

Their combat experience is extremely rich, placing them firmly in the top tier within the entire baronial territory.

So when he saw that the other party did not dodge, he could almost picture the other party being split in two.

But the next moment, something shocking happened...

A dull thud was heard.

The massive battle axe struck the small, round shield, instantly sending up a burst of dazzling sparks.

However, the black-robed leader of the opposing side only swayed slightly before quickly returning to normal.

"How is that possible???"

The extraordinary knight's pupils suddenly contracted, and his face was filled with horror.

In his view, what the other party was holding was nothing more than an ordinary little round shield.

There are plenty of these kinds of ordinary scrap metal in the Hoover family castle's armory.

But his giant axe was specially crafted by a master blacksmith at the baron's request. How could it not even break through the defense of a small round shield?

However, the other party did not give him any chance to react.

The attacker, shrouded in a black robe, swiftly raised a long sword and thrust it at him.

"court death!"

The extraordinary knight was furious.

Almost instantly, his body, hidden beneath the armor, swelled up slightly.

At the same time, he swung the giant axe that was chopping at the round shield horizontally, aiming it at the face of the man wearing a metal mask.

Its speed was so great that it even created a gust of air!

However, what he never expected was...

The attacker, wearing a metal mask, moved much faster than he had imagined.

Before his giant axe could even reach him, the opponent's longsword pierced his throat like a venomous snake!

"Heh...heh..."

Blood gushed out from the extraordinary knight's neck.

With a "bang".

His body, like a small mountain, fell from his warhorse and crashed heavily to the ground.

At this moment, the extraordinary knights and other soldiers who were originally rushing towards the ten attackers clad in black robes were stunned when they saw this scene.

died?

Carmelo Anthony is dead!

For some reason, a strange fear suddenly arose in their hearts.

You should know that the guy who charged forward first was one of Baron Hoover's most capable extraordinary knights.

Although he hasn't broken through to the high-ranking knight level yet, his strength is something no one dares to underestimate.

Unexpectedly, he was killed in a single encounter...

How is that possible?

However, the situation before them left them no time to think further.

Because the remaining attackers had already crashed into Baron Hoover's army.

Soon, the baron's soldiers were horrified to discover that their weapons were completely ineffective at breaking through the enemy's defenses!

The situation on the battlefield changed instantly. Under the combined attack of the Gray Gu mercenary group and the ten attackers, the Baron's army had already suffered casualties.

"Damn it...who are they?"

The Baron's brain began to work at lightning speed.

One thought after another kept flashing through my mind.

However, he still couldn't figure out who would bribe the Gray Gu mercenary group to attack them.

Could it be those guys from the Roland family?

No, that's impossible...

Baron Hoover, being a man of considerable experience, had already noticed that all ten attackers were carrying sets of enchanted equipment.

You should know that a set of enchanted equipment like this is enough to cause a frenzy among the minor nobles.

The other side actually had a full ten sets!

Such enormous wealth could not possibly have come from the Roland family, who were so poor that they couldn't even pay their soldiers and had to sell their possessions to survive.

"Daniel!"

Baron Hoover roared furiously, "Kill that guy!"

Daniel was also stunned by the sight before him.

Although he was a second-level wizard apprentice, he had been studying in the school for a long time and had hardly ever been on the battlefield.

Therefore, seeing this scene of carnage and bloodshed was somewhat unsettling.

However, upon hearing Baron Hoover's roar, he instantly realized what was happening.

He looked in the direction the baron pointed and immediately understood his father's meaning.

The attacker who had just killed Anthony was clearly also a superhuman, and might even have reached the level of a high-ranking knight.

This is clearly the leader of the attackers; killing him would immediately reduce the threat by more than half.

With that thought in mind, Daniel no longer hesitated and quickly took the short wand hanging from his waist...

In no time at all.

A blazing fireball condensed right in front of him!

"call out--"

The fireball shot out with a long trail of flame and struck the leader of the attackers precisely!

With a muffled explosion, the fireball burst open!

The attacker was thrown away by the powerful force and crashed heavily to the ground.

"We succeeded!"

Daniel was overjoyed.

Baron Hoover breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Judging from the energy intensity of that fireball, even I would probably not have fared well if I had taken that hit head-on.

Unless the opponent is wearing high-level enchanted equipment with magic resistance runes, it is impossible to resist.

However... they didn't have much time to be happy.

Everyone, including Daniel and Baron Hoover, was shocked to discover...

The attacker who was knocked down by the fireball is actually struggling to get up from the ground!

Daniel's eyes widened immediately.

"No...this is impossible!"

You should know...

I just cast a level two spell!

Even if the opponent is strong, this attack should at least have seriously injured them. How could they still be able to move?

A strange sense of unease began to rise from the bottom of my heart.

Daniel hurriedly raised the magic wand in his hand.

However, before he could unleash his next spell...

Suddenly, a faint whooshing sound came to my ears!

"Pfft!"

Ok?

The witchcraft being performed was forced to stop.

Daniel suddenly felt a chill on his neck...

What happened?

He instinctively wanted to look down...

But his gaze kept uncontrollably rolling upwards!

"Thump!"

A dull thud rang out, and his head slammed heavily to the ground.

Then came eternal darkness...
