Most of the guards who fought alongside Prince Jarvan knew about his combat skills and were not surprised by it.
This was the lesson the king's most trusted Seneschal, Xin Zhao, taught the prince about the use of spiritual power, and it was also tacitly approved by Jarvan III.
As for whether this so-called "spiritual power" is considered magic...
This is a battle outside, and the people around him are all confidants. Moreover, a considerable number of Demacia royal nobles are at odds with the Demon Hunter Society.
It was not enough for them to curry favor with the only heir of the royal family, the future crown prince. As for this "spiritual power", they naturally separated it from magic.
This is especially true for soldiers who often fight side by side and have a brotherly relationship.
However, the Noxian soldiers were frightened by the blow that destroyed the earth. They became terrified and became timid and unwilling to step forward to fight with the prince.
With just one strike, he was able to kill hundreds of soldiers around him and injure dozens of others to varying degrees. And then there was that stone pillar that rose from the ground, several meters high...
It's obvious that this prince is not an ordinary person!
In Runeterra, ordinary people dare not provoke any mage above the entry level, let alone someone like the Prince of Light Shield.
Who would dare to fight against a guy who has magic and such high fighting power?
Jarvan IV's "Sundering" directly opened a gap in Noxus' southern defense line, and he immediately shouted to the soldiers behind him: "The defense line has been broken, everyone follow me to break out of the encirclement!"
“Charge!”
"Protect the prince!"
"Fight for Demacia!"
"Kill these Noxian bastards!"
“…”
For a moment, the Demacian warriors' shouts of killing shook the sky, and their powerful and heavy momentum directly crushed Noxus by a large margin.
Holding spears and shields, they followed Jarvan IV closely, broke through Noxus' southern defense line with unstoppable momentum, and broke out of the encirclement.
However, during this period, a soldier who was already injured in the leg was unable to keep up with the main force and was left alone. He was hacked to death by the Noxian soldiers who followed closely.
Jarvan IV extended his Dragon Spear and pierced through the chest of an enemy soldier, then kicked him away and looked back with red eyes.
At this moment, Ted looked at him and said, "Your Highness, hurry up! Leave the rest to us!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ted turned around abruptly and ordered the remaining forty or so soldiers to deploy into formation.
The soldiers all held shields in their left hands and guns in their right hands, forming a Great Wall of flesh and steel.
When the Noxian soldiers chasing from behind rushed forward, he would immediately thrust forward with his spears, piercing the flesh and blood of each enemy.
However, no matter how bravely every Demacian soldier fought, they could not withstand the tactics of human wave.
Within a few seconds, these forty-plus soldiers, including the prince's adjutant Captain Ted, were overwhelmed by the densely packed soldiers wearing black and red plate armor, and their lives were unknown.
"--Ted!" Jarvan IV's face turned red, and he turned around and roared with tears in his eyes.
The two soldiers beside him quickly held his arms, trying not to slow him down.
"Your Highness, we cannot stay here for long!"
"Let's go, Your Highness! We can't let down the hope Captain Ted left us!"
Hearing the dissuasion of the soldiers around him, Jarvan IV ignored his sadness and could only turn his face away with a sad and gloomy expression and continue to act according to his original plan.
Every profession has its own expertise. Although Ted's personal strength is not top-notch, his military command ability is not much worse than some Demacia generals.
With only forty-odd soldiers ready to die heroically, he held back two or three hundred Noxians, and even killed more enemy troops than they had in their previous passive defense.
In addition, the Noxian formation pursuing the prince was broken up by their distraction and needed to regroup, so the number of soldiers who could catch up with Jarvan IV was even smaller.
Even if they could catch up, they would be no match for their most elite soldiers.
What's more, they were about to run into the jungle at the foot of the Shimmering Silver Mountains, where the terrain was complex and the vegetation was lush even in winter.
This is the border of Demacia, far away from Noxus.
By then, it would only take ten days or half a month for the news of the prince being besieged to reach Xiongdu, and the king would then send fearless pioneers to rescue his child.
The plan went smoothly, and twenty soldiers accompanied the prince as they galloped non-stop towards the southern forest.
Occasionally, a Noxian team riding a specially modified bicycle with chains and two wheels would catch up with them, but they would be quickly killed by them.
Jarvan IV was not surprised by this type of vehicle. It was a new type of transportation that had become popular in Piltover in the past two years and was very convenient.
It’s just that Demacia doesn’t open up official trade and privately restricts the import of many goods. This kind of “bicycle” is very rare in Xiongdu.
However, at this critical moment, Jarvan IV thinks that this is simply Noxus giving them a pillow when they are "sleepy".
Although they had never ridden this kind of thing before, after just a minute or two of study, they quickly figured out the key point of this "bicycle" - maintaining balance.
After being caught up many times, the number of bicycles had already reached 21, which enabled them to escape faster and with less energy.
It used to take more than two hours to reach the forest in the southern Shine Silver Mountains, but now it only takes thirty to forty minutes.
This should have been an exciting thing.
