Capítulo 58: Betrayal
"Die for me!"
Willis roared, swinging his battle axe fiercely at the phosphorous fire elephant.
Bang!
The axe struck the front leg of the phosphorous fire elephant, causing it to roar in pain and lift its curved tusks as if in agony.
Willis quickly stepped back.
Then, the phosphorous fire elephant swung its trunk, grabbing a nearby tree and pulling it up by the roots, fiercely moving towards Willis.
Dust filled the air as the tree trunk approached.
Willis exerted strength to swing his battle axe, shattering the trunk in midair. However, at that moment, the phosphorous fire elephant suddenly opened its mouth wide.
With a burst of energy, a scorching fireball whistled through the air!
"Father!"
Hall cried out in surprise, his pale face showing a hint of anxiety.
In the next moment, Willis raised his battle axe.
The incoming fireball was shattered, and the flowing flames scattered around. Despite his old age, Willis's strength as a high-level knight was still formidable.
Not far away, Mosheen's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity.
"Lord Sauron, please act quickly!" Hall urged again.
"Alright!"
This time, Sauron did not refuse. He seized the opportunity to loosen the bowstring.
Swish!
A fierce sound of breaking air suddenly echoed as an arrow shot from Sauron's hand, like a cold glow, heading straight for the phosphorous fire elephant.
Pa!
The arrow precisely hit the eye of the phosphorous fire elephant, causing it to burst open, with crimson blood mixing with white liquid flowing from its eye sockets.
The phosphorous fire elephant roared in pain.
Intense agony drove it into a frenzy. It opened its bloody mouth wide, spewing flames all around, turning the surroundings into a sea of fire in an instant.
Willis stepped back, quickly distancing himself from the enraged phosphorous fire elephant.
At this point, the phosphorous fire elephant had entered a state of madness.
Even Willis didn't want to face it head-on. He grabbed a spear from a nearby soldier and threw it towards the elephant.
"Spear throw!"
Willis yelled, and the soldiers of the rushing city around him also threw spears.
Although the majority of the spears couldn't break through the phosphorous fire elephant's defense, a few lucky ones managed to pierce its front limbs.
In the previous battle, Willis had already inflicted some damage with his battle axe, and with the additional spears now embedded in its flesh, the elephant's movements became even slower.
Meanwhile, the remaining firebeasts, sensing the injured state of the phosphorous fire elephant, became restless and charged towards Willis.
"Shield bearers, move forward!"
Upon Mosheen's command, soldiers with shields moved forward, forming a shield wall to block the onslaught of the firebeasts.
In the rear, over ten spear-wielding soldiers thrust their long spears through the gaps in the shield wall.
Willis waved his large hand, signaling the archers to get ready.
Following a volley of arrows, the firebeasts scattered in all directions, but faced with the surrounding shield wall, they had nowhere to escape.
Soon, almost all the firebeasts were killed, and the few remaining ones were pierced with arrows, resembling hedgehogs.
Isolated and helpless, the phosphorous fire elephant emitted angry roars.
Sauron remained calm, bending his bow and nocking an arrow once again.
The arrow shot from Sauron's hand hit the abdomen of the phosphorous fire elephant, creating a burst of blood. Seizing the opportunity, Willis, with a sinister grin, approached the phosphorous fire elephant.
"Die, beast!"
Willis roared, fiercely swinging his battle axe, breaking the leg bones of the phosphorous fire elephant.
Bang!
The phosphorous fire elephant howled in agony, kneeling on its front limbs, and spewed out a fireball, but Willis easily dodged it.
Then, Willis leaped into the air.
In the next moment, his battle axe smashed towards the head of the phosphorous fire elephant. The terrifying power of a high-level knight erupted in an instant.
Boom!
Under such a deadly attack, the phosphorous fire elephant moaned like a small mountain collapsing, and scorching hot blood, like lava, flowed from its head.
Seeing the phosphorous fire elephant fall, the soldiers of the rushing city cheered.
Hall's face also showed a hint of a smile.
Mosheen's eyes flashed with a gleam, signaling his subordinates on the side.
"Haha!"
Willis raised his battle axe triumphantly, a smug look on his face, and loudly said, "Someone, drag this phosphorous fire elephant back to the rushing city. I want to make a set of leather armor from its skin!"
Upon hearing Willis's words, the soldiers stepped forward, using prepared ropes to tie the limbs of the phosphorous fire elephant.
Although the phosphorous fire elephant was not dead yet, it was like an arrow at the end of its flight. With its shattered skull, it was too weak to stand.
"Father, have some water."
At this moment, Mosheen approached, offering a water bottle to Willis, who had just experienced a fierce battle.
Willis took the water bottle and without thinking, took a few sips.
However, in the next moment.
As the liquid from the water bottle entered his mouth, Willis's complexion changed. At the same time, Mosheen on the opposite side revealed a sinister expression.
Chi!
Mosheen's left-handed longsword suddenly thrust out, piercing through Willis's abdomen. His right-hand short blade swung down, but Willis caught it with his hand.
"Unfilial son, have you gone mad!?"
Willis roared, delivering a powerful punch that sent Mosheen flying.
But immediately after, Willis's face turned pale.
The abdomen pierced by the longsword was bleeding profusely, intense pain spreading throughout Willis's body. His figure swayed for a moment, and a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
The sudden turn of events shocked everyone present.
"Start!"
Mosheen loudly roared, and those loyal to him immediately turned their swords against the other soldiers of the rushing city.
Caught off guard, the rushing city soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
At the same time, the surrounding forest shook.
"Lionheart Knight!"
Willis's pupils contracted. He saw hundreds of soldiers emerge from the forest, led by a middle-aged man with a sturdy build and golden long hair.
Lionheart Knight, Rothel!
A renowned high-level Knight under the Duke of the Western Border, he had shone brightly in the martial arts tournament many years ago but ultimately lost to Night Raven Knight Oren.
"Good day, Count Willis."
Rothel's lips raised, a cold smile appearing on his face.
Willis's face darkened like water.
At the moment he saw the Lionheart Knight, he understood what was happening. He looked at Mosheen, his expression turning extremely angry, with a mocking smile.
"Well, well, well."
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Willis's eyes as he hoarsely said, "I didn't expect that you've already joined the Duke of the Western Border and even managed to bring the Lionheart Knight Rothel!"
"What's this? Did the Duke of the Western Border promise you something? Is it worth betraying the rushing city?"
Mosheen remained expressionless, shaking his head, "I haven't betrayed the rushing city."
"Father, you're already old."
"The rushing city, in your hands, will never see any development. Only I can lead the rushing city into a more glorious era!"
"This, actually, you should have understood long ago!"
