But if they are allowed to stay here, these frightened soldiers will not be able to pick up weapons again. When the follow-up troops arrive, rumors will also spread among the army as they join the army.

As for simply retreating the whole army, Brechester had never thought of it. Their action this time was originally a military operation, and there was no turning back. If they failed to achieve results, they would surely die if they returned!

Well, now that things have come to this, there is only one way.

A hint of cruelty flashed in Brechester's eyes, but he remained calm on his face. He walked into the camp and said loudly, "I'm so glad to see you again!"

"Damn, how could it be such a coincidence that a natural disaster happened at this time?"

"Natural disaster?" The soldier looked up at Brachester blankly, his face full of confusion. "But I clearly saw that the meteor came from... Ugh!"

There was a slight sound of an arrow being sheathed, and Brechester looked at the fallen body in front of him, his face full of disgust:

"Spreading rumors and shaking the morale of the army is a capital crime!"

"It was just an extremely rare small-scale natural disaster that happened. Could it be something else? This is really ridiculous. Is there anyone in this land who can shoot meteors, cause mountains to collapse, and cause the earth to crack?"

Blechester asked sternly. Perhaps because they had witnessed the fate of the soldier who had just refuted him, or perhaps because they really felt that what Blechester said made more sense, no one among the soldiers spoke out in objection.

Brechester nodded with satisfaction, and said in a stern but somewhat inducing tone:

"Alright, natural disasters are force majeure, but our plans cannot be changed because of this. Now, pick up your weapons and charge!"

Charge? Where?

The soldiers turned their heads blankly, looking at the bottomless rift valley, only to see Brechester taking the initiative to move forward, with magic light flowing in his hands. A cold wind blew, freezing the river that had turned into a waterfall back into ice. He shouted:

"Armored Warlocks First Vanguard, Second Vanguard, follow me!"

The weather in January and February is already cold, and it is freezing cold at three in the morning. It would be impossible to lower the water level to the freezing point and turn the frozen river into a bridge at ordinary times, but at this moment, it doesn't take much effort.

But even if the river froze and the ice turned into a bridge connecting the two sides of the rift, most of the Ursus soldiers were still unwilling to attack forward.

Although they did not dare to refute Brechester verbally, they were still afraid of the meteor in their hearts.

Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance that the meteor was not a natural disaster, but was really a source stone technique performed by a great wizard in Casimir's army? Who can guarantee that he can't release it again?

If they charge forward, aren't they seeking their own deaths?

But Brachester had no mercy. He still held his sword and moved forward. Seeing that the soldiers did not charge, he called out directly, "Supervisory Team!"

The war squad was a special unit in the Ursus army that was hated by everyone. It was used to drive the vassal troops and the surrendered troops to attack as cannon fodder. The vanguard army never expected that this unit would one day point crossbows at their backs.

Under the threat of death and the general's order, they finally took a step forward and rushed to the other side of the canyon.

Blechester watched all this with indifference, this was his purpose.

He couldn't determine the source of the meteor just now, nor could he confirm who was responsible for it, but everything has a price, and such a powerful attack could not be released continuously.

He drove this demoralized army to charge with two purposes:

The first is to test whether the person who shot the meteor has enough strength to release a second meteor. If not, then the charge of this unit can force him to use other possible trump cards. If so, then this unit can also act as a consumable and drain his strength.

The second is to let this defeated army die.

On the battlefield, the threat of the defeated army is often greater than that of the enemy. As long as they are driven away, these defeated troops may cause a devastating blow to the orderly rear main force. Instead of that, it is better to follow the tradition of Ursus and abandon them decisively! Although Brechester has decided to abandon them, he also wants them to die worthily.

His eyes were fixed on the deep forest in the darkness in the distance. Seeing that the vanguard had begun to cross the ice bridge and approached the other side of the canyon, the forest finally responded.

Blechester's heart was in his throat, but the next second, he was greatly disappointed.

The people who walked out of the forest were not the mighty Pegasus with a silver spear, nor the second-generation wizard king with spiral horns on his head, but just two ordinary people.

One of them had blond hair and brown eyes, and a sword on his waist, his sharp edge was restrained but revealed a dangerous aura everywhere. The other one had black hair and black clothes, his hands were folded, and he was slowly pushed out in a wheelchair.

Looking at these two strange people, Brechester frowned, as if he recognized something, and asked:

"Is this the Pegasus Knight?"

In response, he laughed with ease:

"Exactly!"

Volume 1: Chapter 155: One man guards the pass, ten thousand men cannot break through

Roy really has no fighting ability now.

A fatal injury is a fatal injury. This is Terra, and Roy is not the protagonist of a comic book. He can be chopped into pieces and then pieced back together. Even if Hai Si's body is strong enough, less than an hour is not enough for him to recover.

He was in a state where he was in good spirits, but other things were not so good. His voice was a little loud, and he even had trouble standing up and walking a few steps without any illness. Not to mention drawing the bow and arrow and firing another shot.

But even so, even though Mainna repeatedly asked Roy to go to the rear to rest immediately, he firmly asked Mainna to find a wheelchair for him and pushed him out of the front line.

"Is this the Pegasus Knight?"

Blechester's voice was so loud that it attracted everyone's attention on the silent battlefield. Even the supervising team that was driving the soldiers to charge forward and the vanguard soldiers who had almost lost their will to fight and were charging only because they were afraid of death could not help but stop and cast their eyes on the two lonely figures that separated them from the canyon.

"Exactly!"

Before Mayenna could speak, Roy took the lead in accepting the title.

Pegasus Knight, this title was only awarded to those knights who had made great military achievements or the Kuranta gods of noble blood in ancient times, but now in Casimir it is not so rare. Those competitive knights with the blood of gods, as long as they perform slightly better in the field, will be given the title of Pegasus Knight and publicized.

However, it just so happened that the two people present were not those Pegasus Knights who were in name only.

Mainna is the current head of the Linguang family. Although he has not been well-known in recent years, many of the previous generation know about his heroic deeds. Especially in the eyes of the Ursus people, this guy who led a team of rangers composed of such green forest heroes and was able to compete with their regular army was not much weaker than his brother.

Although Roy has only recently risen to prominence, his reputation has spread far abroad. The people of Casimir regard him as a spiritual idol, and the big businessmen in Victoria have taken the initiative to set up a foundation for him. Even in the Ursus Empire, which is a mortal enemy of Casimir, there are many people who admire him. His Great Wilderness Starfall, which is still a big mystery in the Originium Art world, and his recent activities in the direction of the Forest Rangers, have also brought him into the vision of the Ursus upper class, especially the military.

With the call just now, it didn't matter which of them responded, but Roy's action of deliberately taking the lead despite his injuries still made Mainna frown.

Of course he wondered why Roy was so insistent on pushing him to the front line, but he also believed in Roy.

"Don't worry about why, just push me over there, it will definitely work!"

Since she had already agreed to his request, Mainna placed all her trust in this man who had just created a miracle. She asked no more questions and left the stage to him with peace of mind.

On the other hand, Brachester's face was uncertain. He was really unsure what Mainna and Roy were trying to do by going into battle alone at this moment.

In fact, if the meteor hadn't blown up the artillery position of the vanguard troops, Brechester would have at least fired a shot at the two men to test their quality. But they had lost their long-range attack capability, and the follow-up troops had not yet arrived. If they wanted to rely on crossbowmen to shoot Roy and the other side of the canyon, not to mention the distance, did they really think that Mauna was a vegetarian?

Could it be to buy time? But there must be other people in the forest. The sorcerer who released the meteor spell has not yet appeared. They can continue to hide in the forest and don't need to rush out like they are now. Why is this?

Unable to figure out Roy and the others' intentions, Brechester could only bite the bullet and say:

"You two, I see that you two are not ignorant of the current situation. One of you is seriously injured, and the other is alone. Do you think you can stop the Ursus army? If you are sensible, you can turn your back on us and surrender with courtesy. One of you is of the Linguang bloodline, and the other is a renowned Pegasus Knight. Ursus will definitely not treat you unfairly. What do you think?"

To be honest, he said this just for show. If Roy and the other two really surrendered, he would have done a great deed. If they did not surrender, it would not be a big deal. After all, when he said this, he also gestured to the guards around him, indicating that the supervision team did not need to stop and should continue the attack.

But the next second, Roy said something shocking:

"Stop, take one more step forward, and I guarantee that the second meteor will land on your head right away!"

The second shooting star?!

Hearing this, Brachester's hair stood on end. His eyes suddenly widened and he stared at Roy who was moving with ease on the other side of the canyon.

He had seen the power of this meteor, which carved a rift in the ground out of thin air. This level of destructive power was comparable to the sensational civil engineering masters of the Tianshi Mansion of Yan Country. The Tianshi Mansion moved mountains and filled the sea, and they came out in full force, setting up formations, drawing talismans, and magic tools. It was a huge battle, but what about the meteor? It appeared suddenly, without giving the Ursus people any time to react, and it hit them by surprise.

What Roy meant by this was that either he controlled the right to launch the meteor, or he was the one who launched the meteor!

He couldn't help but be vigilant.

He was the commander of the army, not to mention the soldiers who were originally chased by the supervision team. Hearing Roy's words, he was even more trembling, and no matter how the supervision team threatened him, he was unwilling to take another step forward.

Roy looked at the scene with satisfaction and nodded, but Mayenna behind him had a suspicious look on his face.

He admitted that the power of Roy's arrow had indeed exceeded his imagination. If he was standing opposite Roy and experienced such a scene, he would probably be shocked and confused.

But the enemy was the Ursus army after all, the Third Army that had been tested and fought countless battles! Mainna had never underestimated the enemy, but it was a bit too counterintuitive for an army of veterans to be frightened by the empty words of a seriously injured man who was already sitting in a wheelchair.

He glanced at Roy in confusion. Although he didn't ask much, his thoughts were written in his eyes.

Why was he so confident that he could scare the Ursus people by pushing him here and yelling? What if the other side was not scared and rushed over? Would he be able to fight against a hundred people at the same time while protecting him, a wheelchair man who couldn't even stand up?

But Roy is so confident.

[Sonia's Roar], module effect: [Shame on you, get out of the battlefield! : When facing an enemy who is weaker than you, afraid of you, or in a mentally abnormal state, you can roar at them, and make them feel fear and run away from you. The success rate will gradually decrease with continuous use. It is ineffective for the deaf. ]

As early as when he got this module, Roy had imagined whether he would have the opportunity to recreate the story of Zhang Yide defending Changbanpo alone and repelling millions of Cao's troops. But he never expected that this opportunity would come so soon.

After releasing [Stella!], Roy would inevitably fall into a weak zone. He certainly considered how he would respond if the enemy took this opportunity to launch a direct attack.

I definitely can't do anything with my hands, so I can only use my mouth.

But there are conditions for talking. For Sonya's roar to be effective, the enemy must be weaker than him, afraid of him, or in an abnormal mental state. These three conditions seem simple on weekdays, but that's because they only cover a hundred people at most, and at this moment, he is facing a well-trained vanguard of a thousand people. To achieve this achievement, first of all, it is a hassle to make everyone hear his voice.

He didn't have a horn.

Then the scene must be quieted down.

What he did was to release a meteor first, destroying the enemy's artillery while shocking the enemy so that they would not shout and fire at the same time and cover Roy.

The next step is to scare them.

Although Meteor Ichijo is strong, he is not enough to make everyone afraid of him. After all, people like Blechester are smart and soldiers with strong willpower. They are not easily scared. They can also confuse right and wrong and explain Meteor Ichijo as a rare natural disaster. There must be more than one such person among this group of veterans.

So, Roy chose explosive weapons.

In the second effect of Meteor, in addition to sacrificing life, weapons must also be destroyed.

As for this firework, the "gunpowder" that Roy chose was the collection he got from the old blacksmith but never had the chance to use: [Kiss of Qiexue].

【Kiss of Keshige】

[Ah, he comes riding on fear, like a cloud of smoke everywhere, he wraps you up, lowers his head slightly to kiss your neck, and brings you into an eternal nightmare! ]

[Armor penetration is enhanced, and the attack causes mental damage. 】

Collateral mental damage, an effect that is rarely used in knight competitions on weekdays, now plays a miraculous role!

It is not like in the game that you have to stack it up to see the effect. In reality, mental damage is more reasonable. Every bit of damage will worsen your mental state and weaken your psychological defenses.

When the [Kiss of Qiexue] exploded in the form of a meteor, the state of mental damage was attached to all the enemy troops at the same time, just like a exploded deep-sea surprise egg. Although the effect was not as immediate as the dizzy effect in the game, it effectively weakened the mental defenses of everyone present.

Confusion, fragility, irritability, crying, and fear, these abnormal mental states that should not have appeared in these veterans were all magnified and exposed under the amplified effect of mental damage, so that among the nearly a thousand soldiers and officers present, no one dared to go beyond the line after Roy shouted!

The canyon at this moment seemed like a natural barrier, and Roy was the only one guarding the pass, against ten thousand men unable to break through!

PS: Three thousand two hundred words. I had a meeting in the evening, and after I finished the update, I wrote a little more to make up for it.

Volume 1: Chapter 156 Margaret Lin Guang

Time goes back to the day before the war, Casimir, the great knight leads Kavaleriaki.

This commercial capital, which ranks among the best on the land of Terra, is now experiencing undercurrents. Grand Knight Russell has handed over the intelligence sent by Mainna and the belated tip-off from the ranger to the National Council and the Commercial Federation for circulation.

Casimir is not big. Compared with the vast Ursus Empire, it can only be regarded as a corner. But it is such a corner that can withstand the frontal attack of multiple armies during the most prosperous period of Ursus's conquest. Unlike those countries that have been lost in the dust of history, it relies on the united people and the brave leader.

Even though they usually didn't get along, the Chamber of Commerce and the Supervisory Committee put aside their differences and chose to cooperate temporarily.

We are all Casimir people, and most of them or their elders have experienced that war era. They are well aware of the horror of Ursus. Under the rule of that country, persecution of foreigners is commonplace. If Casimir really falls, it will not be as simple as you, as a noble, hindering my business. It will be a matter of everyone going to the black mine together to see who gets the black lottery first.

The Ursus threat theory is not a conspiracy theory, but a real and unforgettable fact. It is not that no businessmen have tried to cooperate with the Ursus people, overthrow the leadership of the knights and nobles, and establish a merchant republic like Colombia, but the Ursus people have told you with real actions: "Cooperation? Sure! You want dividends after cooperation? Why? I have defeated you, and I still want to give you money and status. Then my fight was in vain? Become my slave together."

The bloody example is a lesson for us. The Chamber of Commerce would rather sell the country to Victoria than to Ursus - they really want both money and life.

Thus, Casimir saw this rare scene: in the meeting hall of the National Council, the representative of the Chamber of Commerce on the left and the Grand Knight of the Supervisory Council on the right miraculously did not have any quarrels or sarcastic remarks. Together with the representative of the National Council who was like air, they nervously analyzed the only intelligence in front of them and planned the next war.

Grand Knight Commander Russell was wearing armor today. He had just given a military speech and then rushed to the meeting without stopping. Looking at the urgent reports coming from the front line in the past few days, she frowned and there was a deep sense of fatigue in the depths of her eyes:

"Since we received the secret report from Maenna and sent scouts to the Baibo River area, urgent news has been coming in like snowflakes. The Ursus people actually repaired the old defense line of the Baibo River right under our noses, but we knew nothing about it. Lord Kane, I'm afraid there is a traitor among us."

She paused and brought the topic back to the war.

"The situation on the front line must be extremely critical. I have ordered the nearest Knights of the Expedition to come to support us immediately. But even so, it will take at least a week for them to quickly reach the Baibo River and build a defense line. There are only two Knights of the Expedition near the Baibo River. I tried to contact them, but as expected, the enemy's scouts have cut off the line."

At this moment, the hidden danger of the Ranger system being destroyed first broke out. The military system of Casimir's Knights resulted in a small number of elite soldiers, which were not enough to monitor the border. The Supervisory Council was also involved in internal strife with the Chamber of Commerce for many years, distracting its attention. After the supplementary Rangers were unexpectedly exposed, a big gap immediately appeared in the entire intelligence line. Who knows how many spies have already infiltrated the Uka border?

Opposite Russell, Kane's face was also solemn. He recognized Russell's understanding of the situation on the front line. In fact, the Business Federation was originally a rival to the Supervisory Council, and even surpassed it. Even if it didn't pay much attention to things on the border, it should have been somewhat prepared. But this time, the Business Federation was also in a state of panic. The reason was that the reliable intelligence agency that the Business Federation originally relied on was called the [No Helmet Alliance].

And now, this reliable intelligence agency has disappeared due to a major power outage!

It was like a magic trick, except for Platinum who was of a lower rank, the two Qingjin and one Xuantie in the upper rank all came back to life. The remaining Platinum, upon checking, was found to have just joined the Wuzhou Alliance and was promoted to this position not long ago. The old Platinum, who knew more things, had long been eliminated by Qingjin and Xuantie. She was obviously a scapegoat, knowing nothing and clueless.

It can only be said to be the butterfly effect. When Xuan Tie planned all this, he certainly did not expect that Ursus would actually have an incident like the military acting alone, which was close to treason. But by chance, he dismantled the stall of the Wuzhu League, which actually made things convenient for the Ursus people.

Thinking of this, Kane was so angry that his teeth itched. A man like him, whose ambition was to "conquer" Colombia through business war, could not stand being played around by a group of assassins who used them as tools. But at this moment, he had no choice but to sigh quietly, discuss the matter at hand, and put forward his own opinion:

"What the Grand Knight said makes sense. Regarding the funding issue for the war with Ursus, the joint meeting of the Business Federation has unanimously agreed to provide the greatest financial support and the best equipment supply in order to repel the Ursus as quickly as possible."

This was said at a clever moment. On the surface, it seemed like he was expressing his loyalty, but in reality, he was also warning Russell not to prolong the war and take the opportunity to expand his power. The prerequisite for their Chamber of Commerce to guarantee the supply of funds and weapons and equipment was to defeat the Ursus as quickly as possible!

Of course Russell understood and nodded slightly, agreeing to the condition.

Kane went on to say, "However, I have a different opinion on the issue of the traitor. Mr. Russell, there is an old saying in Yan Country, which goes, "The evil of petty officials is worse than that of beasts." There is also a proverb in Columbia, which goes, "It is better to offend the chief justice holding the gavel than the policeman with a crossbow on his waist." I think the traitor may not be among our top brass."

Russell frowned slightly and raised his chin towards Kane, motioning him to continue.
