Chapter 18: That Captivating Look



"My Lord, this man is a subordinate of King Griffith. His name is Lockwood, and he is called Rotten Wood because he holds a wooden stick in his hand. He calls this stick Rotten Wood, so he got such a title. Although he is an old man, it does not affect his fighting ability at all.

I think we should send Mr. Amirida to fight him. I think Mr. Amirida can definitely defeat him." The Swadian soldier obviously praised Amirida, who was also a Swadian, and thought that Amirida could defeat Lockwood, who was called rotten wood.

After hearing this man's title, Walsh felt unsafe. His side had several great generals to hold the fort, which boosted the morale of his side. However, Walsh also knew that among the more than 2,000 enemy troops, how could there not be a few powerful generals?

Lockwood is just a microcosm. Among the army of more than 2,000 people, there are countless generals with titles like him.

Wals originally wanted to let Amirida fight. Amirida was originally a knight with this title. Now, letting him fight against a guy called Rotten Wood should be enough to deal with him.

However, when Wals turned his head towards the direction of Amirida, what appeared before his eyes was a huge death sickle. It was exactly like the sickle possessed by the god of death in the legend, without a doubt.

The warrior who used this sickle was none other than Death Scythe Drewry, a general under Count Rayland. It was no surprise that he was on the battlefield now. He should have appeared long ago. I didn't expect that Eredar and Drewry would actually face off now.

In this case, Walls turned his gaze to another person. As a warrior who had followed him for many years, Ailen's strength was unquestionable. However, something that made Walls feel powerless happened.

Obviously, there is definitely more than just Kuchiki Lockwood with the title in the army of the Rhodok Kingdom. There are many people like Kuchiki Lockwood in the army of the Rhodok Kingdom.

That was a guy who used these two swords, and I guess he was also a person with a title.

Watching Airen fighting with the guy who used the two swords, Wals knew that Airen could not stop for the time being. After thinking about it, he realized that he had too few generals who could fight. After all, he only had a few hundred people.

How can I compare with the 2,000-strong army of the entire Louduk Kingdom? Those lords more or less have one or two brave generals. I am afraid that all my belongings combined cannot match them. I will wait quietly in my city for the reinforcements to arrive and then go out to fight them. This is the final victory.

"Who is that guy with two swords?" Wals asked the Swadian soldier beside him. The Swadian soldier quickly replied, "That's Madiq, the Dark Shadow Double Swordsman. He is good at using two swords and swinging them very quickly. That's why he is called the Dark Shadow Double Swordsman."

Wals nodded, confirming what the Swadian soldier said. It was just as the Swadian soldier said. Madiq, who was known as the Shadow Double Swordsman, did possess extremely fast speed. As he swung his swords continuously, Wals could barely see the outlines of the swords.

On this battlefield, Wals looked around and saw several fierce generals charging towards the city wall. Although his soldiers fought hard, they were still no match for these fierce generals. Fatis, Niza and others gradually moved closer to these fierce generals. They all knew their own importance. If they did not resist these enemy generals, these soldiers would have no way out.

It seems that I am the only one who has to go to the battlefield myself. Maybe if I go to the battlefield myself, it can boost morale and maybe we can hold on a little longer.

Wals stood up, and the soldiers beside him seemed to see what Wals was going to do, so they hurriedly greeted him:

"Lord, do you want to go out in person? No, you can't do that. You have to know that your primary responsibility now is to lead the entire army and command the battle. If you go to the battlefield and something happens to you, then we'll all be finished."

"Do you look down on me like this? Is there any doubt in my martial arts? Don't worry, I will definitely come back without any harm. I will bring back the head of the old man called rotten wood."

After hearing what Wales said, the soldiers nodded and said yes. Indeed, no one dared to question Wales' strength. Just based on the fact that he killed Hosbens, it can be seen that Wales' martial arts are definitely unmatched on the continent.

Walls took out his sword. Although the sword was not a magical weapon, he believed that after colliding with the rotten wood, the sword would definitely not break.

Soon, Walls rushed in front of Rottenwood Lockwood.

Lockwood saw Walls coming in front of him, and the Nord soldiers in the first row cheered. Yes, they saw their commander coming to the battlefield in person, obviously wanting to fight to the death with this hateful old man. Their morale was greatly boosted, and they had been waiting for this moment.

Go! Kill this hateful old man, the Nord soldiers who were bullied by Lockwood said fiercely in their hearts. At the same time, they were also celebrating that their commander was able to come down to help them fight this powerful enemy. With Lord Wals joining our battle, this old man will never be able to return alive.

Without further ado, Walls took the knight's sword and stabbed straight at Lockwood. The tip of the sword broke through the air, whizzed past and headed straight for Lockwood's head.

Lockwood's pupils shrank. All he could see was the tip of the sword. This sword could cause fatal damage to him. In all his years of fighting, this was the first time he encountered such a vicious attack right from the start. It seemed that the opponent wanted to kill him very quickly.

Judging from his many years of experience in fighting, this man was definitely the supreme commander of that group of soldiers. Looking at the happy expressions on these soldiers' faces, it was undoubtedly a manifestation of a great boost in morale.

Moreover, they must have great confidence in their supreme commander and believe that their commander can kill them.

After Lockwood made such a guess, a smile inadvertently appeared on the corner of her mouth. She was wearing a special armor.

Although it is relatively light, its protective ability is indeed much stronger than ordinary leather armor. Heavy armor will affect his speed, so Lockwood did not use heavy armor. This special armor can protect her body while avoiding reducing her speed.

Lockwood leaned his body back and gradually passed over her head. Seeing that Lockwood had avoided the attack, Walls changed his straight stab into a pickup without hesitation, and swung his sword downwards. This time Lockwood's heart suddenly began to pound, with the fear of facing death. Lockwood exerted force with his feet and rolled sideways, avoiding Walls' attack again, but Walls' colonoscope still left a mark on his shoulder.

Although the armor that Lockwood wore was very nice, Walls's scene still cut a hole in the armor, and a trace of blood flowed out from the broken armor.

"You... you pissed me off, young man, and you're going to pay for it."

After hearing the other party's threat, Walls laughed wildly twice. He actually had the courage to say such words. He had just used two moves to suppress the other party. No matter how you looked at it, he had the upper hand. He still had the courage to say such words. Was he trying to intimidate himself?

Seeing Walls laughing wildly, Lockwood himself was also unsure. Originally, those words were said in anger, and now he was regarded as a laughing stock by the enemy. However, he could clearly judge that this young man was definitely Walls, the supreme commander here.

Lockwood knew the reputation of Wals, who was able to kill the great hero of the Swadia Kingdom. After two exchanges of moves with Wals, it can be seen that Wals was not just a reputation, and he did have the strength to kill Hosbens.

"What are you still standing there for? This guy is the supreme commander of this city, Wals. He is the lord of this city. As long as we can kill him, this city will fall by itself, and King Graves will surely give us a lot of rewards." Seeing that he could not defeat Wals alone, Lockwood ordered his men to move forward and temporarily consume Wals's strength. As long as Wals's strength decreased, he would have an opportunity to take off Wals's head, which would be a great achievement for him.

正是这样想着,他手下的那一帮罗多克士兵犹豫了一下,从刚才的几次交手过程当中,他们可以看得出来沃尔斯有着多么强悍的实力,能够把自己的上司给打成这样,两张都是沃尔斯占据了上风,他们就算再傻也看得出来明显自己的上师是打不赢沃尔斯的,可是犹豫了再三斗号他们还是决定前进和沃尔斯拼死一战。

重赏之下必有勇夫,也不知道葛瑞福斯国王给了他们什么样的赏赐,居然能够让他们克服死亡和沃尔斯决一生死。

噼里啪啦的,沃尔斯的长剑连连和哪些罗多克士兵的武器碰撞在一起,直刃刀有着直刃刀的好处,他们举起盾牌先嫁其面盾墙,紧接着在盾牌与盾牌之间的缝隙,捅出自己的直刃刀,他们作战配合极为紧密,看得出来是经过严格训练的。不用想沃尔斯也知道这是一群精锐之师,罗多克王国当中的精锐中的精锐。

罗多克军士他们全都是罗多克军士,可以说全大陆排名第二的步兵,排名仅占路德皇家侍卫之下。

不过,遇上了沃尔斯,就算这一群罗多克士兵倒霉了,沃尔斯的长剑像雷一般突然闪了过去,一名罗多克士兵的面门被长剑刺穿,先学啪的一声就建在四方,在他旁边的士兵们都沾染上了这一名士兵的鲜血,等他们反应过来的时候,沃尔斯却又突然出现在另一名士兵的旁边,就算他举起盾牌,沃尔斯照样刺穿了这面盾牌直接捅进这名士兵的心脏。挪克的士兵的铠甲仿佛就像一张薄纸一般根本经不起敲打,那一名士兵眼睁睁的看着长剑刺进了自己的心脏而无能为力,脸上写满了惊讶与恐惧。

其他的士兵们看见了自己的同伴这样一副模样,都在心底里暗暗打串,盾牌和铠甲同时捅破,不得不说沃尔斯的实力确实恐怖。但是恐怖归恐怖,这不意味着他们在经历过战场之上没有看见和沃尔斯一样的人物,虽然说这样的人物极少,这一群身经百战的士兵也不是没有看过。

至少在罗多克王国内部就有着着一名强大的剑客,他也同样拥有着沃尔斯一样的实力,连人带盾牌都可以直接捅破,无视铠甲防御。

可是,这一个人却没有跟随着葛瑞福斯国王出征,他们作为普通的基层士兵,虽然说是士兵当中的精锐,但是还是没有权力接触到这一种上层人士才能够接触到的东西。

如果说那一个人能够出现在这里,这一个沃尔斯绝对不会嚣张起来的。这些士兵在自己的心里暗暗嘀咕。

就在他们分心的那一霎那,沃尔斯又左右横劈两刀,又是两名罗多克王国士兵倒下,地上再多出了两名自己同伴的尸体,这一群士兵显然是有点害怕了,害怕的表情写在了他们的脸上,反观沃尔斯的士兵,这是一脸高兴的样子,他们看见这一群士兵和自己的领主大人打起来了,不由分说的就拿起自己的斧头开始和这一群士兵拼命,有了自己的士兵加入,沃尔斯挥动自己的剑更加游刃有余,就像一只鲤鱼在水里游一般,沃尔斯左一刀右一刀,很快,罗多克士兵便死伤过半。

可就在这个时刻,沃尔斯就觉得自己的背后一凉,寒风一阵一阵的袭来,沃尔斯想都不用想浑身直接防御背后,康当一声,自己的长剑和一根木棍撞在了一起,那一个不问直接和常见撞在了一起,金属的力量却没有击碎着一根木棍,可以想象着一根木棍绝对不是普通的木棍。

在看见了这一个木棍臭,沃尔斯想都不用想就知道是用这一把武器的人是谁,就是刚才躲在一旁迟迟不敢出来应战的洛克伍德。

洛克伍德知道,这些罗德和士兵都是罗多克王国的格瑞福斯国王手下中的精锐之师,现在死伤过半多好自己再不出手恐怕到时候回去复命,格瑞福斯国王恐怕会狠狠的惩罚自己。

况且,嗯洛克伍德发现沃尔斯在经过了和自己的士兵交手之后,还能够保持着充沛的体力,洛克伍德就知道自己一定遭遇了一个强大的对手,相信在下面的格瑞福斯国王可以看得一清二楚。

没错,葛瑞福斯国王也确实是看见了沃尔斯的杰出表现,本来就看见过沃尔斯的葛瑞福斯国王,现在这一刻自然是肖祥尽办法把沃尔斯给斩尽杀绝。绝对不能够让他有任何喘息的机会,也要让他死的难看。

葛瑞福斯国王挥了挥手,示意着自己手下的大将们纷纷出战,只要擒住了沃尔斯,他们这一场战斗可以早一点结束。

激动之余,格瑞斯国王还保留着理智,他知道自己派出的人都是自己的人,那些领主却连任何家长都没有掏出来。这显然不公平,沃尔斯的实力葛瑞福斯国王是清楚的,怎么可以让自己的人死伤这么多,而那些领主却保存着实力?

应该让自己的这些领主也派出一些人手去和沃尔斯交战。

今天这一天注定是一个值得纪念的日子,对于沃尔斯来说确实是一个重大的日子,当日后人们回忆起这一天的时候,都会为沃尔斯强大的武术给震撼。

朽木洛克伍德在和沃尔斯的交手过程当中逐渐落于下风,身上早已经被划开了两道口子,这两道口子的伤口极深,导致鲜血流个不停。

可恶,难道我洛克伍德今天就要死在这里了吗?

洛克伍德比大把年纪了,他参加军队的生涯占据了他一生当中的大半时间,看着自己身边的那些战友一个接着一个倒下,他知道自己终有一天也会成为那个样子的,但是活过了一场又一场战斗的他逐渐觉得自己不会死亡,可是现在看来这真是可笑。

沃尔斯手起刀落,一刀便披上了洛克伍德的肩膀,这是他拿着朽木的肩膀,自己的那一根木棍儿不能够再握在自己的手里了,洛克伍德他也知道自己的寿命将近,没有了武器在手又有什么能耐能够打败眼前的敌人。哪怕就是唐兵的一个诺德皇家侍卫都可以轻易将自己撕成两半。

“沃尔斯,我知道你武艺高强,我不是你的对手,只可惜我自己一个人傻乎乎的冲上前来才遇到了你,我们两个单挑赢的一定是你。

但是格瑞福斯国王绝对不会因为我的死亡而停止进攻了,更多更凶猛,比我更加强大的那些大将正在赶来的路上,沃尔斯你今天一定会死的。”洛克伍德在临死之前豪言壮语总要说一番,这是他最后一句话了,这句话说完的时候,沃尔斯的剑就已经刺穿了洛克伍德的脖子,脖子是它防护最为薄弱的地方,铠甲没有护住那里,因此沃尔斯轻而易举的便攻破了这一层防御,直接让洛克伍德毙命。

在看见了洛克伍德死亡之后,周围的那些沃尔斯的士兵都是放声欢呼,对于敌人的死亡他们当然是异常开心,那些罗克士兵看见自己的主将死亡,犹豫不决准备撤退,也亏得他们是精锐之师,才没有像普通的士兵那样慌乱起来,但其实他们在心里已经打起了退堂鼓。

不过随之而来的一幕让这些本来就想要逃跑的罗多克士兵却突然又停下了自己的脚步,因为他看得出来已经有一批援军到达这里。领头的正是格瑞福斯国王手下的另外一员大将。

“黑脊长矛”曼威尔,因为曼威尔使用的是一把与众不同的黑色长矛,大家都知道罗多克王国的士兵擅长使用大刀和长矛,这是对抗骑兵的基础,而曼威尔的这一把黑脊长矛却是厉害万分,全身是一种特殊的黑铁锻造而成,坚不可摧,比起洛克伍德的朽木还要硬上三分,毕竟木头终归是木头,和真正百炼成钢的金属是比不了的。

况且黑脊长矛所使用的金属绝非普通的金属。虽然说,黑脊长矛比不上那些神兵利刃,但是在这一次攻城战当中相信绝对会大放异彩,因为,在场的任何一位都没有神兵利刃,而黑脊长矛却比得过大多数武器。

“不用我多说了吧,站在前面的沃尔斯领主,你杀掉了和我们一起同生共死兄弟洛克伍德,这一次你再也别想逃走了。”

曼威尔一上来就狠狠的说了一句话,双眼之中迸发着一股又一股的杀气,平时他和洛克伍德也没有太多的交集,但是现在这是激发众人一同对抗悟透的好时机,因为他清楚的知道,凭借着自己一个人显然是不可能打败沃尔斯的。既然如此的话,那么就群殴。

沃尔斯注意到除了黑脊长矛曼威尔之外,还有着其他的一些大将,他们的装扮和普通的士兵不是一样的。

Just from their attire, you can tell that these guys are definitely not ordinary soldiers. From their eyes and their bodies, you can tell that they are generals commanding the soldiers. Judging from the badges they wear, these generals belong to different lords, which means that those lords have taken out their own belongings.

This was indeed the fact. King Griffith did not say anything. He just looked at the lords under him. Those lords felt frightened by King Griffith's eyes.

He had no choice but to take out all his belongings.
