Chapter 89 - Defense Line

It happened very suddenly.

It was like a rabbit overturning a lion.

More than ten knights riding horses faced a few people.

However, he was shocked by the roar of the Cathayan.

The air in the main building instantly fell silent.

Especially when he saw Kang De kill a knight with an axe, Viscount Samuel’s expression was extremely bad, “Didn’t Hong San say that Kang De doesn’t know martial arts?!”

The butler beside him bowed and asked, “Lord, should we send Hong San to pursue him? In my opinion, such a person will definitely work harder than us to pursue our clansmen.”

Samuel’s eyes flickered. He hesitated for a moment before shaking his head. “No.”

This Cathayan was indeed as he had expected. He was not mediocre, nor was he a swindler.

He instructed, “Imprison Hong San.”

The Glory Sand Viscounty was filled with talents. This operation still had an overwhelming advantage. There was no lack of… dogs with some possibilities and variables.

“How ugly.”

A sigh sounded.

Viscount Samuel’s expression changed. He turned around and bowed respectfully, “Mage Richard.”

The white-haired spellcaster walked into the room arrogantly and said indifferently, “The Eldest Prince once praised Knight Lost’s family background and said that the Goode family is extraordinary. Seeing it today, it seems that the Eldest Prince has misjudged. The elites of Glory Sand came out in full strength and actually let them escape in front of everyone.”

Viscount Samuel was furious.

—D*mn, you bastard. You’re taking advantage of your seniority and putting on an act. You speak as if you’re a close subject of the Eldest Prince. Who doesn’t know that you’re a piece of trash who’s never obtained the Medal of Brilliance? Wasn’t it because you’re inconspicuous and won’t be seen through by the Eldest Prince’s political enemies?

However, although he was disdainful, Viscount Samuel still had to be respectful.

It was not only because the other party was the Eldest Prince’s envoy.

It was also because even if the other party was a “trash who was so busy that he did not obtain the Medal of Brilliance”, he was still the strongest spellcaster in the entire viscounty. As a Viscount, he had to maintain his respect.

He swallowed his anger and said, “I’m really ashamed. That Cathayan is a variable outside the plan…”

The mage said impatiently, “I don’t care if he’s from Cathay. I’m not interested in him. My mission is to patrol this place for the Eldest Prince and ensure that the Princess of Goethe can be successfully detained. Then, Viscount Samuel, in the current situation, I have to personally capture this Princess of Goethe.”

Viscount Samuel bowed and said, “Of course not! The Goode family will show the Eldest Prince our ability and value!”

Mage Richard snorted and ignored the other party. He floated out of the window and landed steadily. He barely touched the ground as he floated and slid all the way to the location of the “horse disaster”.

Knight Lost first saw the horse rebel and Kang De kill. He did not immediately pursue it. Instead, he stayed at the scene and asked the knight, checked the injured, and observed the dead.

He did not fight unprepared battles.

Knight Glenn’s story made him frown.

“The horse is inexplicably frightened and can’t be comforted… How strange. Did it use any medicine or treasure?” Knight Lost flipped open a corpse and saw the hole in its face.

Mage Richard floated over and said arrogantly, “Knight, are you going to let them escape?”

Lost said indifferently, “This is Glory Sand, the territory of the Goode family. They can’t run.”

Seeing him so arrogant, Mage Richard said indignantly, “What are you looking at?”

“There’s a shocking weapon in the hands of the Cathayan.”

Lost took out a handkerchief and held it in his hand. He reached into the wound and pulled it open. He pulled out a slightly deformed metal bullet. “Interesting metal… How did it enter the knight’s hard body?”

He only heard thunderous gunshots and saw flames.

Mage Richard also sensed it. At first, he was disdainful. When he saw the bullet and the knight’s wound, his face revealed a serious and wary expression.

He had originally shouted that he wanted to capture Tina, but now, he did not say anything.

“Knight.” He said, “If we don’t chase after them, they’ll really run away. Or are you afraid?”

Lost glanced at him and said calmly, “I’ll go now. The Cathayan has exposed one of his trump cards. Since we already know, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”

He stood up and said, “There’s something strange about the Cathayan. Don’t use the warhorse. I’ll chase after them first. Hurry up and follow.”

With that, a golden light appeared under Knight Lost’s feet. His figure turned quietly and instantly ran at full speed, even faster than a pegasus.

Kang De and the others were riding wildly.

Four people and two mounts.

Kang De held the battle axe in his hand tightly. There were still a few pieces of flesh on it. He could still remember the ferocious flesh wound on the face of the knight he had killed with his axe. His eyeballs had been cut off. Next, he shot and killed three more. There were a total of four people who died instantly. He had killed them.

As he had imagined, he did not feel any discomfort.

Instead… he was very excited.

This feeling intertwined with the boiling killing intent in his heart. Without a doubt, he would keep his promise.

Everyone in the Goode family had to die.

Head Maid Bedolla and Tina were silent.

Tina, in particular, curled up in the head maid’s arms in an unprecedented silence.

“Kang De!” Cleveland said. “What now?”

Kang De said firmly, “Go to the dock! There’s a ballista on the ship. Burn the dock to the ground first! Then, slowly play with this family of traitors!”

Now, the killing intent in his heart was boiling and extremely violent. The death of the captain and the others in front of him made him even angrier. However, this time was different from the battle of the Holy Seal Islands. At that time, he had come prepared and waited patiently to kill the elves bit by bit. This time, it was so sudden that he could not use his abilities at all.

However, as long as he escaped danger and took a breather, he could take many things from Earth and repeat the war of the Holy Seal Islands. At that time, not only would he have to kill Samuel’s entire family, but he would also have to dump his mother’s ashes!

At this moment, Head Maid Bedolla, who had been silent, slowly said, “Lord Kang De, please ensure the princess’s safety first, okay?”

Kang De was filled with anger and was in a daze. When he heard this, he looked at her gloomily, “It doesn’t matter. You can leave first. I’ll stay and slowly play with these bastards!”

When Tina heard this, she looked up at Kang De and wanted to speak, but her expression suddenly changed and she looked back. “F*ck! They came so quickly!”

Golden light flashed, and a figure leaped up and landed with a whoosh. Its speed was not inferior to the galloping of a warhorse. It was Viscount Samuel’s eldest son, Lost!

There were three sword slashes between his ribs. His eyes swept indifferently and he maintained his running posture. He took a sword with his right hand and raised his hand to throw it at Kang De’s back!

“Hold on tight!”

Kang De pressed with his right hand and turned around. He rode the warhorse backward and pulled out the fire axe. He held his breath and focused. When the sword flew away, he raised his hand and blocked. With a bang, the sword was sent flying.

The effect of the strength medicine had yet to dissipate. Kang De had only blocked this sword with a slightly numb arm, but the power transmitted down. The horse under him neighed and almost knelt down!

Lost was not surprised to see that he had missed. He picked up the second sword and did not throw it immediately. Instead, he held the sword and gathered strength. Golden light surged into this sword visibly.

This was a huge move.

Kang De shouted, “This is a little dangerous! The horse definitely can’t take it!”

At this moment, Head Maid Bedolla said calmly, “Lord Kang De, come here after I leave.”

“Knight Cleveland, if the worst happens, please advise the princess to quickly make a decision.”

Kang De and Cleveland turned around. Tina also looked up in surprise. The three of them were stunned.

Faint blood flowed from the corner of Head Maid Bedolla’s mouth.

Tina cried out, “Head Maid!”

Bedolla smiled apologetically at the princess, “I was greedy. I ate some pastries during the banquet. Who knew that I would be tricked? I’m ashamed. Please tell the palace eunuchs to take this as a warning.”

Tina realized what had happened. She could no longer hold it in. Large tears flowed from her eyes.

“I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”

She cried, “It’s all because I trusted them so easily! It’s all because of me. If not for me…”

“Please don’t say that, Your Highness. There are all kinds of despicable things in this world that originate from the ugliness and desires of the fallen. We should condemn, despise, fight, and eliminate them, but we can’t punish and blame ourselves for this. You can’t apologize for showing kindness.”

Head Maid Bedolla said softly, “Your Highness, you’ve already done very well. Please still keep the pure land in your heart and not change yourself because of the changes in the outside world. You too, Lord Kang De. May the clean be always clean and the dead be quiet.”

“Unfortunately, I won’t be able to see Her Highness’ wedding.”

She said goodbye to Tina and nodded at Kang De.

“I was born because of Tedrell, and I should die for Tedrell.”

Amidst the girl’s cries and tears, she held the weapon and jumped off the horse. Lost’s sword attack whistled over. Cold combat aura flashed on the head maid’s body like flames that burned everything, illuminating the darkness and the path ahead. She cut off Lost’s flying sword and stood with her sword horizontally.

“Stop here. I, Head Maid Bedolla, defend the first line of defense for the princess.”

She said calmly, “You won’t reach the second one.”
