Chapter 84 Disaster Unprepared (5)
The distance between the castle gate and Baron McCleary.
It was far.
It was impossible with common sense to pass through the crowd of enemies in front, but it was different in Roman’s world.
‘The opponent’s commander is off guard.’
Could it be because the power of the Cairo Kingdom was poor?
Baron McCleary stepped forward a little to observe the situation.
Of course, that distance was enough to say that it was far away, but it wasn’t so far that you couldn’t approach it at all.
I changed my plan in an instant.
Originally, the priority was to secure space at the gate until Stephen and his soldiers installed the iron fence, but Roman kicked the ground the moment he met his opponent’s eyes.
‘Kill the commander.’
How to quickly end a war.
As experienced in numerous battlefields, the moment the head of the commander is blown away, the enemy has no choice but to collapse at once.
“Stop!”
“The enemy is alone!”
The soldiers of Hector Kingdom were furious.
When Roman dared to come out of the castle alone, they attacked Roman with ferocious faces.
The scene where you get entangled with countless enemies took your breath away just by watching.
Weapons flying from all directions will take your life the moment you lose your guard.
But none of the attacks worked on Roman.
Tata Tang.
Deflected all attacks.
Not only that, but the soldiers who tried to attack screamed at the severed limbs before they knew it and fell out.
hundreds of enemies.
It was common sense that they had an advantage.
Obviously, Roman had to fall, but as time went on, only the soldiers suffered more damage.
“Get out of the way!”
“I’ll make it so you can’t run amok anymore!”
Hector’s knights.
Having received Baron McCleary’s orders, they rushed forward like crazy.
They were not common articles.
It was an aura swordsman who knew how to express an aura, and different types of auras were formed from their swords.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Mana exploded.
At the same time, Hector’s soldiers were convinced that they had defeated Roman this time.
however.
‘Cheonma sword method, Lee Cho-shik.’
I took one breath.
The mana seeped from within and emitted an aura towards the enemies running in front of it.
Strike of the Heavenly Demon.
Hector’s knights, who had promised victory, disappeared without knowing what outcome they would face.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
It was shockingly powerful.
The auras that the knights manifested were scattered like dust blown away by the wind, and their powerful bodies armed with steel armor turned into shapeless lumps of meat like paper being ripped apart.
Everyone was stunned.
Only then did they realize that the existence they were dealing with was a monster that they could not dare to touch.
Even after seeing hundreds of enemies, it was because I had judged that there was no problem.
Roman Dmitry.
In Baek Joong-hyeok’s life, hundreds of fights were common.
They were always at a numerical disadvantage in the fight against those called Murim masters, not the occasional minnows.
What was Stephen’s advice?
I just decided that there was no need to overdo it unnecessarily.
But now.
After confirming that the commander was within range, Roman tried to end the battle in his own way.
tadak.
kicked the ground
Suddenly.
In front of him was Baron McCleary.
He looked at Roman with a shocked face.
It slaughtered dozens of soldiers and tore through Hector’s aura swordsmen in one blow.
The surprise attack on Cairo was not part of Hector’s plan, and Roman Dmitri’s force was unstoppable even if calculated.
My eyes trembled.
In his head, he was screaming to run away, but the order he had heard before leaving Hector’s kingdom came to mind.
‘There is no need to forcibly capture the defense line. Just make the most of your time. We need enough time for our plans.’
“Fuck.”
only 1 hour.
Unreasonable attacks gave birth to variables.
Baron McCleary drew his sword.
he is also inspected
As a swordsman who knows how to use a two-star aura, he intended to do everything in his power to remain as a loser in a failed operation.
“I am Baron McCleary of Hector! I myself… … .”
Flash.
Pooh!
one flash.
The moment Roman arrived, Baron McCleary’s head was blown off and blood spurted out like a fountain.
His judgment was arrogant.
Since Hector’s knights couldn’t withstand a single blow, he had to make the decision to run away.
commander’s death.
Roman raised his head high into the sky and shouted in a mana-laden voice.
“Killed the enemy general!”
That moment.
Like a lie, everyone on the battlefield stopped moving.
* * *
The atmosphere chilled and froze.
Hector’s soldiers.
They didn’t know what to do.
They still had enough strength to surrender immediately upon the death of their commander.
Confusing situation.
It was Roman Dmitri again who broke the silence.
Awesome!
“Cheer.”
Roman cut down the enemy in front of him.
It was a judgment beyond common sense.
Usually, killing an enemy commander was a common choice to persuade soldiers to surrender.
If the opponent was the Barco family, it might have been.
In fact, Roman killed Barco and his son, the culprit of the war, and finished the situation, but the situation was different now.
Hector.
They attacked without warning.
Not only was it a war without a justification, but other defense lines were still under attack from the Hector Kingdom.
Roman raised his voice.
“Soldiers of the Kingdom of Cairo, listen up! We cannot afford to secure prisoners. And now other defense lines are also under attack from Hector Kingdom. If you let them live now. It will definitely come back as an enemy. Execute our enemies at the risk of our lives, even if we have to shed blood here!”
The war with Barco.
In a big sense, it can be said to be a bone-yuk battle.
Since it was a fight in the same kingdom, as long as the commander handled it, the soldiers who admitted defeat would not return as a risk factor later.
however.
Hector’s soldiers are different.
Even if Baron McCleary is dead.
As Hector’s members, they are obliged to fight to the end.
blast furnace.
In the first place, I did not recommend surrender.
Even if his arm was torn off and blood was shed by the cornered rats, he needed to take care of it now that he had gained momentum.
that they are opposite each other.
That alone was reason enough to be cruel.
Seeing Roman unilaterally slaughtering enemies, Cairo’s soldiers shouted cheers and poured out of the castle all at once.
“Follow Roman Dmitri!”
“Kill all the remnants of Hector!”
blocked the way out
Hector’s soldiers cornered.
They knew they couldn’t come back alive.
* * *
Henry Albert.
By the time he arrived, the tide had already turned.
I heard that the 5th line of defense was on the verge of collapse, but the scene unfolding in front of me was completely different.
“… What is this?”
outside the castle.
A one-sided slaughter was taking place.
Cairo’s soldiers, who had to take advantage of Mercury, attacked the enemy with evil faces like those who were possessed.
How the hell did this happen?
It didn’t make sense in my head.
One thing was certain: Roman Dmitri’s presence stood out even in the midst of fierce battles.
‘To think that Roman Dmitri is this strong.’
Truly.
It was an overwhelming presence.
Hector’s soldiers, driven into a corner, rushed in desperately, but the moment they dealt with Roman, limbs were torn apart without a doubt.
The numbers were virtually meaningless.
No matter how many times they attacked, the result was always the same: death.
Before.
Henry had seen rankers fight.
Even back then, I thought that Ranker was a being from a different dimension, but even the being glorified in my memory was nothing compared to Roman.
The god who defeated Homer.
At just 25 years old, Henry boasted that he would surely be weaker than rumors, but Roman Dmitri felt rumors were rather underrated.
and.
Roman’s soldiers were also formidable.
In particular, characters such as Chris and Kevin Pookie showed incredible powerlessness as mere soldiers.
now it’s clear
A situation different from the news.
The variable comes from Roman Dmitry.
‘… I can see why your uncle asked you to somehow become friends with Roman Dmitri.’
I swallowed my saliva.
My uncle was right.
Birth didn’t matter.
Roman Dmitry.
It was a monster that would devour the Cairo Kingdom someday.
Henry hurriedly shouted at the soldiers still riding the Earl.
“Help Roman Dmitri right now! We have to throw away the rest and protect Roman first!”
Henry giving orders.
In the meantime, he followed the soldiers at the rear.
* * *
Things have been sorted out.
Hector’s soldiers did not fight to the end.
At this rate, fearing that they might be annihilated, they abandoned their comrades who had left their backs and fled in pieces.
in the process.
Most of them are dead.
Roman followed to the end and took the enemy’s breath away, but there was no way to kill all the enemies fleeing simultaneously.
when the battle is over
Chris ran straight to Roman.
“Chris and 30 others. There are no deaths.”
fierce battle.
Fortunately, no one died.
That didn’t mean that everyone was safe.
Everyone basically had one wound, and those who were slightly worse could see red flesh through the torn skin.
He did not shed a single groan despite such wounds.
In particular, Henderson must have been unfamiliar with such a large-scale battle, but he kept his mouth shut with a cold sweat on his face.
“Good job. Use a potion to treat wounds.”
“All right.”
There was no special congratulations.
But that alone.
Stephen, who was nearby, couldn’t help but be astonished.
‘… Did you supply potions to all the soldiers?!’
potion.
Healing potions produced in the Mage Tower boast a significant amount even at the lowest level.
however.
Roman’s soldiers used expensive potions casually.
Even at a glance, it looked like an intermediate level or higher, but the whole bottle was poured into the wound.
Chi profit.
It burned and gave off a musty smell.
A wound that heals quickly.
Stephen seemed to understand why the soldiers trusted Roman Dmitri so blindly.
‘Overwhelming force, bold judgment, and even a generous heart to the soldiers. The trust between Roman Dmitri and the soldiers wasn’t just formed. Because he’s this kind of person, even if he were to jump into a pit of fire, he would believe and follow him.’
The admiration was brief.
Roman said to Steven.
“You settle the battlefield here and prepare for the second attack. And we need soldiers who are familiar with the geography of the southern front.”
“… Are you sure you want to leave right away?”
“The war is not over yet. Even at this time when we have found peace, soldiers from the Kingdom of Cairo are dying elsewhere.”
The war has begun.
one victory.
It doesn’t mean winning the war.
Roman showed a ferocious look.
“I have no intention of just watching Hector’s kingdom trample this land. Until he killed all the guys from Hector Kingdom who crossed the border. I will not stop.”
at that point.
Stephen was stunned for a moment.
Clearly Cairo was a losing battle.
Hector’s palace attack was a surprise, and Mercury’s advantage had disappeared.
but.
For some reason, I thought that this man in front of me would do something really big.
Roman shouted to the soldiers.
“I’ll give you 10 minutes from now. Get ready to leave.”
“yes.”
Roman soldiers following orders.
2 hours after the outbreak of war.
The 5th Line of Defense succeeded on Mercury.
And that was the first and the starting point of another variable that Hector Kingdom did not expect.
