Chapter 468 Die together!
"It's already come to this, and you still want to make a pointless struggle!"
Chat was very disdainful of the desperate struggle between the two duchies. After making a sarcastic remark, he turned his attention to Nemio and others.
"Since you have chosen to pledge allegiance to me, let me see your loyalty! You should know what to do!"
Chat was not worried about any danger to himself, because the four earls who defected from the Principality of Jean were all golden knights.
The church also sent him eight golden knights and five magicians, bringing the total number of high-end combat forces to 17 people.
On the other hand, there were only seven ordinary golden knights left in the Principality of Jean and the Principality of Alban.
As for the three peak gold knights, Lawrence was already seriously injured. Even if he fought a final battle at the cost of his vitality, he could only deal with two or three mid- to high-level gold knights.
Although Hayden and Gust were not as seriously injured as Lawrence, it was impossible for them to exert their full strength. The best they could do was the strength of a mid-level gold knight.
This is also why Chat dared to march out of the city in a swagger and unscrupulously persuade Lawrence and others to surrender in front of him.
…
"Your Highness, don't worry! We will definitely catch Lawrence and his men in one fell swoop!"
After hearing Chat's words, Nemio and other rebellious nobles expressed their loyalty in a decisive manner.
When the five or six thousand orcs appeared in the west just now, Nemio and others were all glad that their choice was wise. At the same time, they felt that those nobles who refused to surrender were completely asking for trouble. Now they could just kill them as a token of their loyalty.
"In that case, what are you waiting for! Except for Alice and that reptile named Gervis, no one else will be left alive!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Nemio and Avery's eyes lit up when they heard Chat's final words.
Gervis and the others had been gnashing their teeth in hatred for a long time, and Chat's explanation was exactly what they wanted.
Killing Gervis directly would not alleviate the hatred in their hearts. The only thing they wanted to see was torturing Gervis until he was unable to live or die.
"kill!"
"kill!"
Next, the people from the two duchies and Chat finally broke out in the largest-scale peak battle outside the City of Glory.
There were more than twenty golden knights participating in the battle from both sides, and there were also five magicians involved.
…
Lawrence and others felt that they had no way out, so they were not prepared to devote any extra energy to taking care of the rear.
Instead, he wanted to take advantage of the limited time to see if he could kill Chat, or kill a few more people from the church and let them be buried with him and others.
So when the earls and kings of the two duchies were fighting hard, the army in the rear was in chaos because they had no leader.
"Captain Ike, what should we do!"
Among the army at this time, the other small nobles and those soldiers were in chaos. Only Gervis' subordinates were still calm. Moreover, they all appeared in the front position in the west, facing the orcs directly.
Looking at the scene in the distance that looked like thousands of beasts galloping, Alex asked Ike with a bitter face.
"Your Excellency is already fighting the enemy, and we cannot bring shame to you. So what if they are orcs? We have killed so many orcs!"
While instructing several guards to load ammunition into the small cannon, Ike answered Alex's words in a casual manner.
"That's true. From the beginning till now, I've killed more than ten orcs! I'll just have to kill a few more later to make up for the loss!"
After listening to Ike's words, Alex scratched his head, chuckled, paused, and then continued.
"What a pity! I can already feel the existence of fighting spirit. Maybe in a few months I can become a titled knight like you!"
"What's so sad about this? I'm still the same!"
Ike felt that Alex's words were a bit of a show-off, so he retorted in annoyance.
Then, Ike looked at the battlefield where Gervis was and sighed.
"Your Excellency is truly kind! This is the first time in decades that I've heard of a noble being as generous as Your Excellency! We haven't done anything meritorious, yet Your Excellency has taught us the techniques of practicing Dou Qi!"
"Of course, your Excellency is definitely the most chivalrous lord in the world!"
Alec also looked towards Gervis and nodded solemnly.
"By the way, Captain Ike, do you miss your wife and children? I miss the blacksmith shop and my father. I wonder if my father will be sad after receiving my news!"
"Of course I have! My boy is already over ten years old, stronger than you, and will definitely be stronger than you in the future. I plan to let him serve as your personal guard in the future!"
"Captain Ike, you are bragging. Apart from the title of knight, I have never seen anyone stronger than me since I was a child!"
Alec rolled his eyes, somewhat unconvinced.
"Who's in charge here now?"
Just as Ike and Alex were arguing with each other, a woman's voice came from behind them. The owner of the voice was Caroline.
At this time, Caroline was already wearing armor, which did not look out of place against her red hair, but made her look even more charming and attractive.
"Miss Caroline, why are you here? I am the one in charge here now! I wonder if you have any instructions!"
Caroline didn't know Ike, but Ike knew Caroline. After seeing Caroline, Ike immediately replied respectfully.
"You guys are great! I've brought some people with me too. See if you need their cooperation or just let them join the battle!"
Caroline nodded to Ike, then pointed to the team of several hundred people behind her and said.
These were all vassals of his Welton family, and Caroline had just gone over to gather them together.
Although she knew that she was going to die, Caroline was not someone who was willing to sit and wait for death.
"Miss Caroline, you don't have to cooperate with us. Just let them charge with us later!"
"Very good! I'll leave this to you guys! I'll go find Gervis now!"
Although he knew that such a small number of people would be of no use against five or six thousand orcs, Caroline had already done her best and was now ready to find Gervis.
"I can't be with you in life, but I'm willing to be with you in death. Alice won't blame me, right?"
Thinking of this, Caroline turned around and prepared to head to the battlefield on Gervis' side.
"No need to go, Caroline! Let's buy some more time for Gervis and the others here!"
Just after Caroline turned around, she was surprised to find that Alice had also come here.
"Alice, why are you here?"
Caroline felt a little guilty because Alice had heard what she had just said about going to find Gervis.
"Grevith asked me to come here. We need to buy them some more time! It would be best if we could kill that shameless bastard Chat!"
"But...but...don't you want to die with Gervis..."
Caroline was extremely unwilling in her heart. She knew that she would not be able to survive today, so if she did not go to find Gervis now, her plan to be with Gervis after her death would be futile!
"No buts!"
"Grevith promised me that he would come find me, and even if he died, he would die with me!"
Alice understood very well what Caroline was thinking.
At this time, she also clearly knew her feelings for Gervis, so she also wanted to be with the person she loved most when she died.
Seeing a hint of sadness in Caroline's eyes after hearing what she said, Alice continued with a sly smile.
“And you!”
"What?"
Caroline's eyes widened.
"He said he wanted to die with you too!"
Alice said this unhappily, then ignored Caroline and began to give orders to the two soldiers who were following behind him and were responsible for blowing the horns.
Although it was a fight between trapped beasts, if there was a unified command, it would not be a one-sided massacre, so Alice came here at Gervis' request.
Gervis had indeed promised her that if he was really dying, he would come to find her.
Only then did Alice bear to leave Gervis at this time.
As for the fact that Gervase also wanted to die with Caroline, that was of course made up by Alice herself.
Although Gervis had mentioned Caroline just now, he only vaguely asked Alice to find Caroline, saying that Caroline was the granddaughter of the Lord of the North after all, and had a lot of tricks in her head, so maybe she could give some useful suggestions.
Only then was Alice willing to help Gervis comfort Caroline before she died.
After all, as his legitimate wife, Gervis can still be cautious about her.
Otherwise, if Gervis dared to say such outrageous words to her face, Alice felt that she would definitely beat Gervis to death first.
