After hearing Wayne's answer, Lani was silent for a few seconds, then tilted her head and asked with some confusion:

"What does friend mean?"

"An ally?"

Wayne was silent for a moment when he heard this. He didn't expect that Lani, the Princess of the Moon, didn't even understand what her friends meant. He wondered what kind of life she had experienced in her long life to become what she is now.

He thought about it and did not deny his ally's intention, but added:

"That's almost true, but friends are closer than allies. They don't mix too many interests, and they will never betray each other. Only then can they be called friends."

Lani nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly said, "My ally who never betrays me, do you want to be my husband, Wayne?"

Wayne was stunned. There is still a big difference between a friend and a husband. Although he doesn't mind becoming Lani's husband, it is obviously impossible at the moment.

As a demigod from the borderland, it is impossible for Lani to find a husband from another world right now.

Sure enough, before he could explain a few words, Lani's voice sounded again.

"Sorry, Wayne."

"If you want to be my husband, you must be equal to me in strength, and you must also complete some of my tests."

"Being a life partner comes with its own set of responsibilities."

"You don't have the qualifications right now."

After listening to Lani's words, Wayne not only did not feel disappointed, but even felt a little excited.

"In other words, when I become strong enough in the future, will you give me this opportunity?"

Lani looked at Wayne with her gem-like eyes and did not deny it. Instead, she said in a vague tone: "If in the future, you have the opportunity to come to my world and complete my test in my world, I can make you my husband."

"If there's enough time."

……………………

After a night's rest, everyone's strength was restored the next morning.

Wayne and Lani's chat did not last long. The Moon Princess was not a person who liked verbal communication. Her favorite thing in the past was to stay quietly in her magic tower and learn the magic knowledge that interested her.

Her long lifespan gave her extraordinary patience. She didn't mind how long she would stay in this world. What mattered to her most was learning more about the laws of the world and cracking the golden law of the border area.

After breakfast, Wayne and others did not stay in the village for long. Instead, they chose to bypass the area where Kalkstan was ambushed, maintained a vigilant formation, and continued to move towards their destination.

In fact, when Wayne was on guard last night, he was wondering whether those fallen humans would come to attack the village at night, but they did not come.

It might be because his counterattack yesterday was too powerful. He killed more than a dozen fallen archers by himself, which almost severely damaged their long-range attack capability. The terrain of the village was more suitable for defense, so these fallen humans were a little timid. Even though they knew their location, they did not dare to attack at night.

But now that they had left the easily defended village, they could not rule out the possibility that the enemy might attack them.

And things happened just as Wayne had guessed. About half an hour after they left the village and came to the empty wilderness, a burst of screams and cries like ghosts and wolves howling suddenly came from around the team.

A hundred meters beyond their sight, hundreds of fully armed human warriors suddenly rushed out from all directions and from the thick fog.

Their equipment was varied, there were mercenaries, plate knights, and ordinary militia, and the weapons in their hands were not uniform, but the most notable feature was that these humans had fanatical expressions, extremely strong bodies, blue-red demon tattoos on their faces, and when they charged towards Wayne and others, they were very fast.

Faced with this group of enemies rushing towards him, Kalkstein looked panicked and shouted "Enemy attack" loudly, then looked at Wayne to ask for his advice.

Keira was quite calm at this time. After seeing the enemies rushing towards them, the sorceress said to Kalkstein, "I will put up a magic barrier to block their attack. You will help me maintain the barrier and prevent them from attacking us."

"Ms. Margarita will be in charge of using magic to attack the enemy."

After the warlocks made a clear division of labor, Wayne said to Reso and others:

"You will also enter the magic barrier as the last line of defense for the warlocks. You must protect several ladies."

After saying that, Wayne took off the magic bell from his waist, injected magic power into it and shook it. After a ding-dong sound that seemed to come from his ear, soon in front of him, the white light turned from virtual to real, and a white horse with hair as dazzling as snowflakes appeared.

After being summoned, the warhorse named Udis first let out a loud neigh, then looked back at Wayne very smartly, as if waiting for him to ride it.

Seeing this, Wayne did not hesitate and immediately jumped on his horse. At the same time, he took out the Sword of Victory in his left hand, rode the horse, and rushed towards the enemy.

His riding skills, which had reached level ten, instantly created a close feeling between him and Udis, as if they were not just strangers between master and mount, but had been working together for a long time and could communicate with each other's minds.

This feeling was very magical, but unfortunately, because Udis was not his tamed mount, neither of them received any blessing from the taming skills.

But Udis is very fast and moves very lightly. He can even do a double jump in mid-air under Wayne's control. He is just like the warhorse in the game, not much different. He can fight across various terrains and is basically not restricted by the terrain.

Moreover, its carrying capacity is very strong. Wayne's body together with his equipment weighs at least 150 kilograms, but after the soul warhorse carries him, he does not feel any burden. If the horse is covered with a set of hard vest, it will definitely be the best helper in charging into battle.

Faced with Wayne's command, Reso and others did not try to be brave. Instead, they took the surviving mercenaries and protected several warlocks including Kayla. Then they were all shrouded in a translucent magic barrier, facing the fallen warriors who were rushing over from a distance.

Wayne, without any scruples, rushed into the encirclement of the fallen human warriors and started fighting.

Without any ado, he first controlled the chaos magic and put a layer of enhanced Quen shield on himself to resist the opponent's long-range attack. Then, holding the two-handed greatsword in his left hand and the honeycomb bomb in his right hand, he did not confront the enemy's large force head-on. Of course, he bypassed most of the enemies and harassed them with long-range bombs.

Relying on the flexibility of the Soul Steed, Wayne used long-range attacks with bombs to disrupt the enemy's formation, while using his sharp two-handed greatsword to harvest lone Fallen warriors, and soon achieved considerable results.

The powerful attack power made him not have a very intuitive feeling about the fighting ability of the Fallen Warrior.

However, Wayne could still clearly feel that these fallen people with demon tattoos had greatly increased their strength and speed. They were stronger than ordinary humans, but far inferior to demon hunters.

Unfortunately, the demonic erosion cannot improve the war technology of these fallen humans. On the contrary, due to the increase in strength, their fighting style becomes more like that of beasts. They can only rely on their own brute force to launch a death charge.

Perhaps this kind of fearless, selfless attack method should be able to produce excellent results for ordinary human armies, but when they face a demon hunter master who has a variety of long-range attacks and spells, as well as mobility that completely crushes them, they are not much different from those evil spirits who can only chase after the enemy.

Five minutes into the battle, Wayne had killed more than twenty fallen human warriors, forcing the opponent's commander to send more men to deal with him.

In order to limit Wayne's mobility, they even sent out all the fallen archers to surround and shoot him from all directions. The clanging arrows hit Wayne's Quinn shield, making him very annoyed.

The most troublesome one is the soul warrior Maudis.

Although this warhorse is highly maneuverable and has beautiful snow-white fur, as a warhorse it cannot withstand the shooting of arrows. Even though Wayne has divided his attention to help Udis block the arrows, four or five arrows still shot into its body.

However, as a soul warhorse, Udis is no longer a normal flesh and blood creature. If such injuries happened to ordinary horses, they would have lost their ability to move because of the arrows in their bodies.

However, for Udis, ordinary bows and arrows would only make it feel painful and weak, and could not cause any substantial damage to this soul warhorse. It would recover quickly after entering the bell.

He found that his archers were unable to do anything to Wayne, and the other group of soldiers were blocked outside the magic circle by Kayla and others, and could only slowly consume the opponent's magic power.

The commander of this group of fallen ones soon played another trump card of his.

Accompanied by the neighing of horses, ten fully armed Fallen Knights rushed in from the fog, cooperated with the warriors to join the battle, and began to use their mobility to encircle Wayne.

On Kayla's side, seven or eight sturdy men holding shields were protecting a man wearing gorgeous robes and holding a metal staff, and they were slowly approaching the magic circle created by Kayla and the others.

When Kalkstein, who was trying his best to maintain the barrier and had cold sweat on his forehead due to the tense battle situation, saw the group of men protected by the strong man behind him, he couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

"Kalairt!"

"I thought he was dead, but I didn't expect that not only was he alive, but he also joined the other side."

Hearing Kalkstein's exclamation, even Margarita, who was casting an offensive spell, couldn't help but look over there.

When she saw the male warlock whose face was also covered with a blue demon tattoo, she immediately said in disbelief, "These monsters from another world can actually control our warlocks."
