Chapter 96 - General Barton Poaches Talent

Outside St. Servant City, yellow sand filled the sky.

Two flowing lines, one black and one white, filled this colorless land with a beautiful scenery.

As the sun set in the west, more and more black and white shadows began to stop moving, as if they were stationed on this desolate land.

On the battlefield, the Holy Knights, who had always been brave, gradually began to lose their strength.

Their formation gave them a huge advantage, saving them a lot of energy against the large numbers of Werewolves, even if they cooperated well.

However, they still couldn’t bear it after a long time.

Though they were surrounded by Werewolves and a lot of pressure was gathered on them, the pressure on the other Holy Knights was suddenly decreased.

They even began to counter-surround the Werewolves. The Holy Knights trained by Cardinal Monn broke through from the inside.

While the other Holy Knights surrounded the Werewolves from the outside in a pincer attack.

The situation on the battlefield changed. For a time, the aggressive Werewolves became the weaker side.

Of course, this still depended on whether the Holy Knights under the banner of Cardinal Monn could withstand the pressure.

Seeing this scene, the General Wolf was initially quite proud to have surrounded the arrogant Holy Knights.

However, the situation had changed in an instant.

Now, they had become the weaker side. How could he bear this?

He fiercely hammered the air, and his legs immediately tightened in anger.

The Silvermoon Wolf King beneath him simply could not withstand the combined strength of the General Wolf’s peak-stage saint-level strength, and immediately could not help but wail.

Hearing the Silvermoon Wolf King’s howl, the General Wolf came back to his senses and stopped his leg strength in time.

Although this Silvermoon Wolf King’s strength was not that great in his eyes, as his mount, it only needed to be mighty.

It wasn’t easy for him to find a mount that he was slightly satisfied with, so he couldn’t let it die just like that.

Though he stopped his body movements, the anger in his heart didn’t decrease in the slightest.

The city protection array was broken. Shouldn’t this be the moment when the Werewolves’ momentum was greatest?

Shouldn’t it be the time when the Werewolves should break through St. Servant? How did the situation suddenly reverse?

The General Wolf could not help but ask a series of questions.

His gaze once again turned to the group of Holy Knights that was tightly surrounded by the Werewolves, yet still stood brave. He could not help but roar, “Where the f*ck did such a Holy Knights group come from?!”

How did everything happen to him?

He had received news that although the Werewolf groups that were attacking the other human cities had not made any progress, they were not as miserable as him!

On the first day of the siege, he was scared out of his wits by Cardinal Monn.

Finally, the defensive formation of St. Servant was broken today and they were ready to charge in. But suddenly, such a powerful Holy Knights group appeared out of nowhere.

It really gave him a headache.

However, he did not have any good ideas at the moment. He could only let his wolf pups continue to surround and kill those Holy Knights.

After all, the situation was already like this. He might as well continue to surround and kill them. At the very least, he had to finish off these Holy Knights on this battlefield!

He could not let his wolf pups die in vain!

He continued to give orders, “Don’t bother about those Holy Knights on the outside. Directly kill those Holy Knights inside!”

Hearing the General Wolf’s orders, the deputy hurriedly gave orders to the battlefield.

On the city wall of St. Servant.

Cardinal Monn and the others were looking at the battlefield not far away.

Of course, their focus was always on the Holy Knights who could still defend and even kill a lot of Werewolves while under assault.

Seeing this scene, General Barton’s eyes were burning with passion and desire.

He had never thought that war could be arranged like this.

He had never thought that an army that could set up a formation could be so valiant.

This scene instantly replenished his gradually aging heart.

He wished that the war could end now so that he could quickly go back and train his army into a formation.

However, he also knew in his heart that this kind of formation was not something that could be trained just by thinking about it, so he looked at Cardinal Monn.

“Cardinal Monn, I’m very sorry that I didn’t understand your rules and regulations and had a conflict with you!”

General Barton turned around and suddenly bowed deeply to Cardinal Monn. He lowered his head and apologized.

This scene immediately shocked many people, especially Saintess Ace and the eldest Princess Sheryl.

For the two people who had always lived in the Capital, General Barton’s stubborness was something they often heard others discuss.

Therefore, General Barton’s stubborness was also deeply ingrained in their minds.

It was incredible that General Barton suddenly bowed his head and apologized to Cardinal Monn.

They even suspected that General Barton had been replaced by a Werewolf.

Of course, this was only because they were deeply surprised by General Barton’s abnormality.

To suspect that General Barton had been replaced was only to express their disbelief.

When Cardinal Monn heard General Barton’s apology, he did not have any thoughts. He was even a little confused. He did not know why General Barton was apologizing.

In Cardinal Monn’s view, being summoned after work and not attending was his normal behavior, and General Barton did not force him to attend, so it was naturally not a conflict.

Of course, Cardinal Monn did not know about the confrontation between General Barton and the Saintess Ace that day.

Although he did not know why General Barton apologized, Cardinal Monn did not want to understand, so he calmy said, “It’s okay.”

General Barton immediately raised his head when he heard that. He looked at Cardinal Monn with a face full of desire and said, “I wonder if you are interested in coming to our Kingdom to be a General. We can talk about the benefits!”

Saintess Ace and the eldest Princess Sheryl, who were still in shock and doubt, instantly regained their senses.

So General Barton had set his eyes on Cardinal Monn’s military talent and wanted to rope him in to work in the Kingdom!

The eldest Princess Sheryl’s eyes instantly lit up when she thought of this. She was very much looking forward to Cardinal Monn’s reply.

Not only General Barton wanted Cardinal Monn to come to the Kingdom to work, even her father the King was also very keen in Cardinal Monn.

The Kingdom was really lacking in talents.

Moreover, once Cardinal Monn came to the Kingdom to work, wouldn’t she be able to meet him whenever she wanted to?

Perhaps, Cardinal Monn might even have some romantic affairs with her after a long time.

Shirley’s green-gray eyes became even brighter while thinking of this. It was as if there was a voice in her head that kept shouting, “Agree to him! Promise him!”

On the other hand, Saintess Ace, who had come back to her senses, was not happy. Why did these people want to poach the Orthodox Church’s talent???
