Chapter 205 Request
After all, only a few people dare to swing their swords at beings they do not understand. Even the brave elite of Gondor will be frightened by the cries of the Ringwraiths and run away with their heads down. Even the fearless elves will cry loudly at the approach of the Balrog.
It’s not that the soldiers are too timid, it’s just that the pressure brought by the enemy is too great.
The black-armored warrior holding the elven sword in front of him seemed to turn into a shadow, covering the entire battlefield.
Shadow of War.
Yes, how could such a person only leave a legend in the East?
Everything is connected together, and the heavy stone pressing on my heart becomes heavier.
Clang.
Finally, someone couldn't even hold the weapon steadily and accidentally dropped it to the ground.
All this happened in just a few seconds.
When Levi arrived, a big hole was immediately torn in the encirclement, and the commandos followed, charging forward with tense spirits.
However, to their surprise, the Haradrim did not take any action as they passed by.
These people...are they all traitors?
Kane was a little confused, but that didn't stop them from following Levi out.
"What are they doing, these idiots? Why aren't they attacking?"
At the back, the furious commander threw the dying Cui Te aside and kicked him hard before raising his knife and shouting, "Chase them and stop them!"
"Anyone who dares to retreat will be executed on the spot!"
Boom…
The army marched forward, followed closely by the mammoth war elephants.
When the last row of soldiers passed him, the commander turned around and kicked Cui Te on the ground again angrily, breaking two of his ribs.
Cui Te had some difficulty breathing on the spot.
After doing all this, the commander finally calmed down a little. He grabbed Cui Te's neck, lifted him up and said, "You cowardly guy, I want to teach you a lesson--"
"Those with strong wills will always get their chances, but those who waver will surely die."
"grown ups."
Cui Te breathed desperately, tears coming out of the corners of his eyes.
"I...I really didn't mean to do that. I didn't mean to do that. I slipped..."
"waste."
Plop.
He was thrown to the ground again.
"If you hadn't touched me that time, that arrow would have hit his heart!"
"If you can't even show the most basic loyalty, you will never be able to join us, let alone come back."
"You are nothing."
"The horses are ready." At this time, the deputy came over leading the commander's royal fast horse.
The commander was too lazy to pay attention to Cui Te on the ground, and turned around to mount his horse.
"What is he going to do?" the deputy asked.
"Just leave him here to be eaten by ants and insects in despair, or to be pecked out by vultures."
"Let him slowly regret his infidelity."
After saying this, the commander squeezed his legs and rode his horse to chase after him.
The deputy glanced coldly at Cui Te lying on the ground, and followed the commander.
The other end.
When the command of the commando was handed over to Levi, the leader changed, and it was obvious that the morale of the entire team increased a lot.
Although the captain is calm and wise, he is a man who came out of the legend. He naturally has an aura that can boost your confidence just by looking at him.
Although his way of leading troops is quite primitive, there is a kind of open and free beauty.
But when he took the lead and rushed forward under the dense arrows, broke the shield formation of the Harads with just one encounter, and tore open the encirclement by himself, everyone felt that this was not a shortcoming.
Legend has his own legendary way.
Since you can just crush it, why bother with micro-operations?
Isn't it pure and redundant?
"rush!!"
When Levi's voice sounded, the rangers drew out their long swords shining with cold light, and followed Levi like wings, with high adhesion but not hindering his movements.
At the same time, Kane was gesticulating anxiously behind Levi, quickly adjusting the commandos' formation to match Levi's fighting style.
In this way, a cone-shaped assault formation with Levi as the peak continued to advance forward. All obstacles in front were violently broken by Levi. He raised his hand and swept across. The team members behind were responsible for finishing off and killing those soldiers who had lost their morale and even looked weak when swinging their weapons.
This was the first time that the commandos attempted an assault on the front battlefield - no matter what was in front of them, it would be broken by the sword of the leader, and then their morale would be lost.
The sense of security is full.
It can be said that if the temporary leader at the front is missing, the team will be wiped out immediately. Now such an outrageous battle situation is basically supported by him alone.
The breakout was quite successful. The Harad army blocking the front collapsed at the first touch and did not cause any effective obstruction at all. The group rushed out of the encirclement in one go and left the army responsible for intercepting the north behind them.
But the number of enemies is there after all.
Boom…Boom…
Shouts and vibrations came from behind at the same time. Levi stopped and turned around, only to see a huge army that seemed to have no end and was continuing to surround him. There were three mammoth war elephants in the back, and the archers and javelin throwers on the elephants' backs were staring at him, ready to attack at any time.
Because of their presence, this night is no longer peaceful.
"You continue to retreat," he said to Kane.
"What about you?"
"I'm going to get to know them again."
“It’s too risky.”
Kane said quickly, "Please believe me. Although we only have eighty people, each of us is an elite who has experienced at least dozens of battles. No matter what means we use, we will definitely be able to bring you to Gondor."
"adventure?"
Levi smiled and said, "You are right, I am an adventurer."
"alright."
He patted Kane on the shoulder and said, "If we waste any more time, their arrows will be shot at us. Now retreat with your elite troops. Be careful. After all, I am only one person, and there will always be some who slip through my fingers."
"I formally return command to you."
"I really can't let go with you guys here."
Kane was silent, feeling as if a mountain was pressing down on him.
This was not because they were afraid of war or death, but because they were afraid that this legendary lord would get into trouble. His position was too important. If he really got into trouble, wouldn't the entire northern Middle-earth be in chaos? This would have a huge impact.
"I…"
Kane took a deep breath, thought about it, and finally made a decision: "Bless you."
"withdraw!"
He made a gesture and immediately led the commando team to evacuate to the north, leaving Levi alone.
Are you kidding? No one here is blind. Wasn’t this guy’s behavior just now outrageous enough?
Seeing the commandos withdraw, Harad's army also sped up, but after they advanced another hundred meters, they found that there was still a figure left there and did not chase after the main force.
"oh?"
Under the moonlight, the commander looked at the dark figure whose face he couldn't see clearly and felt amused.
He gave the order confidently: "Run them over and leave them alive!"
Then the earth shook continuously and the legion advanced forward.
Levi raised his sword high, and the sword shone with an eye-piercing coldness under the moonlight.
Whoosh——
An arrow was shot and hit Levi's head accurately, but he just raised his head slightly, without moving even half a step, and pulled out the arrow casually, then looked straight in the direction from which the arrow came.
When their eyes met, the commander felt his heartbeat pause.
"You gimmicky fellow, let's see how long you can keep pretending!"
He comforted himself like this.
Finally, the army approached.
Boom!
Like a volcanic eruption, several flaming figures flew up into the sky and then fell to the ground. The war elephants were so frightened that they suddenly stopped and took a step sideways.
"What?"
The commander stared at the place where the unusual movement came from with his eyes wide open.
What's going on? All these people can't deal with him? He's just a lord!
He yelled, "Get out of here, let me..."
call--
In just a short moment, the flames burned almost a circle, and it was with the help of the flames that the commander was finally able to see the man's face clearly.
At the same time, great fear arose in my heart.
Boom!
The trampling of the mammoth war elephants brought the commander's memory back to two years ago, when he responded to the call of the Dark Lord with full faith and fighting spirit, and as a pioneer, he followed tens of thousands of troops to march towards Khand.
At that time, he was just a small soldier, and was placed next to the deputy of that large army, and was quite inconspicuous.
He had watched that man - the shadow of war, who suddenly appeared beside the commander of an army of 30,000 like a ghost, and lifted him up with a sword. The commander of the army lost his life before he could even utter a wail.
He just rushed in alone, and everything that stood in his way was destroyed with ease, even the mammoth war elephants.
He could withstand the trampling of war elephants.
Boom! There was a sound of something breaking. As the mammoth's big feet fell, Levi's rune shield finally couldn't hold on and shattered. The belt triggered the emergency mechanism for the first time in a long time, and a shock wave erupted, pushing everything around away.
Under the sudden and powerful impact, the mammoth war elephant was unable to stabilize its body and fell down all of a sudden. The tower on its body fell to the ground and shattered.
The loud noise pulled the commander out of his memories. He looked over hurriedly, and the scene before him overlapped with his memory from two years ago. This moment was just like that moment. As expected, the next moment the entire mammoth was on fire. The war elephant wailed and kicked its legs weakly. The surrounding soldiers opened their mouths wide and couldn't stop backing away.
The man cast his gaze over.
Before the commander gave any order, the horse under him took several steps back uneasily, breathing heavily through its large nostrils.
With a clatter, the soldiers made way for the commander.
The commander just said it himself: Let him come.
It was obvious that these soldiers were very obedient and carried out orders without any hesitation.
The commander held down his heartbeat with one hand, his chest rising and falling, his breathing almost louder than a horse's.
His lips trembled as he spoke slowly on horseback:
"Can we reconcile?"
