582 Pitiful Shields

In other words..... I'm here to rescue Cousin."

'Sling!'

-_-

Swords were drawn immediately, as everyone didn't expect that the situation would be completely different from what they had assumed.

How could they let the person who was responsible for killing some of their comrades off the hook just like that?

Eli quickly looked around and knew that his men, combined with Connor's men... were enough to tackle Landon's men.

So was there to be afraid of?

All he and his men had to do..... was step a little further from these Baymardians, and all would be safe for them.

One had to know that Eli believed that the black things in their hands were capable of shocking them only at a certain distance. 

Yup!

He thought that they were holding tasers in their hands.

So after analyzing everything, he felt even more confident than ever about the current situation.

.

"Save him?

Little brother, since when did you get wrapped up with this common criminal?

If you choose to interfere with today's matter, then you leave us no choice but to let you suffer the same fate as that of a criminal... since you're obstructing our jobs in bringing justice into Arcadina." Eli said, while lazily looking at Landon.

But even though his face looked expressions, his heart was turbulent as tge seas on a stormy night.

His heart rate accelerated a bit, as he waited for Landon to fall deep into his pit.

Every second of silence seemed like a century to him, as all he needed now... Was for Landon to join in with William, making it easier for him to kill him openly.

Because if he didn't do it like that, Connor here might take advantage of the whole situation... So as to drag him down even further.

If he killed Landon just like that, then Connor might snitch to the Baymardians about the whole incident.

At that time, even if Alec had conquered Baymard... Maybe some of the people there would see Connor as a good guy.

And who knows... Maybe there would be many revolts and whatnot happening within the Baymardian empire.

So even though he could always use force... at times, it was better to avoid such unnecessary situations.

And that was why he had to come up with a legit reason to kill Landon.

After all, the man was a f**kin King... So he could just touch him just because he wanted to.

.

--silence--

Everyone looked at Landon impatiently, while pointing their swords and Spears at him and his crew.

Landon looked at Eli and sneered.

"Big brothers... If that's the case, then so be it.

But all I know is that I will rescue Cousin no matter what!"

"Good! Good! Good! Good!

You're really a fool!

Then don't blame us for showing you no mercy!"

"Cut the crap!

You all talk too much!

Are we doing this or not?"

"Little brother, since you insist... Then I won't try to convince you any longer!

Men!

Release the arrows!" Connor yelled.

"But your Highness... Some of our men are standing next to them.

So if we release a rain of arrows, would they die together with these Baymardians?" One of the low-class archers said, before getting a solid slap from those beside him.

'Pah!'

'This is war fool!

Death is normal.

After all, even if they don't die now... We will still perish one day.

So what difference does it make if one dies today or tomorrow?

Always remember: 'Something must kill a man, so why bother?"

"Release the arrows!" Eli also commanded.

And just like that, a rain of arrows was sent towards Landon, his men and some of the enemy warriors beside him.

Of course, Landon and his crew estimated that this would be the enemy's first move... So they already came up with a game plan prior to this.

.

"Now!"

'Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup!'

The Baymardians soldiers quickly dropped to the group, and used their legs to down enemy opponents next to them... Before using them as shields over their bodies.

Of course, some of the soldiers quickly rushed over to protect William as well.

'Ahhhhh!!!!!'

The enemy warriors screamed in agony, and their bodies trembled as if something was about to burst out from within.

F***!

It was painful as hell!

The arrows pierces had pierced right through their bodies, leaving them in an extremely sorry state.

As shields, the rain of arrows had soared no part of their bodies.... and had directly plunged into their eyeballs, necks and even their 'privates'.

It was truly a gruesome sight to behold.

'Bluhh!'

Blood gushed out from their mouths like an overflowing bathtub.

And no matter how much they struggled to stay away, many of them slowly lose consciousness... And even cried during the process, because they knew the death was definitely knocking on their doorstep right now.

To make matters worse, their death was accelerated even further by the many incoming arrows that were sent to them nonstop.

Their bodies had been vibrating nonstop till the moment they took the last breath.

So many of them died feeling very resentful.

[*Pitiful men: ( :TT∆TT:) Scoundrels!..... Couldn't you have given even a moment's peace?

*Princes: Hmph!...who cares about you all?

Shoot! Shoot! Shoot!]

'Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup!' Thup!'

'_'

.

The enemies were quickly shooting their arrows like crazy people, but all of a sudden they saw the doors of the vehicles open up.

Yes!

Some of the soldiers were still within the vehicles.

"All units take aim just as planned!"

Hearing the instructions from their Walkie talkies, they quickly utilized the hand firing missile guns and swiftly aimed at their targets.

"Fire!"

'Boom!!!!'

'Ahhhhh!!'

--silence--

Several thick clouds of flame rose into the air like magic, accompanied by the ghastly screams of men.

'Ahhhhhh!'

Everyone paused for a moment, and their faces soon turned frighteningly pale.

The screams alone made them feel as if they were the ones who were currently suffering right now.

Dammit!

What the hell was that?
