Chapter 50: Hail the King
“Boom!”
More close combat fights erupted, and blood and limbs began to fly everywhere.
The armoured strongmen charged into the chaotic sea of enemies and the massive weapons danced in their hands. The enemies were sent flying off of the bridge like kites; they fell into the river like dumplings and were washed away by the fast currents……
Fei didn’t slow down, either. His axe returned back to being the Grim Reaper’s sickle; it wiped out everything that it touched, like a broom sweeping up the dust. After every strike, there were fewer people on the bridge.
Fei intentionally increased his charging speed this time. To increase his speed, he paid less attention to the strongmen behind him. He only killed the enemies that were directly in his line of sight after he had broken into the enemy’s formations. The enemies that slipped through Fei’s axe were left for the strongmen to handle.
This way, their pushing speed would be much faster. However, the strongmen were facing more pressure. The enemies were all well-trained soldiers. Most of them were veterans and some of them even had tiny amounts of energy. In combat, their attacks were somewhat threatening to the strongmen. Although their armour protected the strongmen from the blades, the shocks that came with the attacks numbed their body parts. Soon, some of the strongmen became lightly injured, but they knew that there was no way Rather than hoping to kill more enemies, they didn’t want to become a burden on their king. No matter how severe their injuries were, they bit their teeth to endure the pain and followed their king closely.
Fei had discovered this was well. He spun his huge axe and created another blade storm. He turned the approaching enemies into ‘dusts of blood’ and filled the battlefield with sounds of cracking weapons and bones. He then quickly switched modes again.
Barbarian Mode disappeared
Paladin Mode was initiated.
Suddenly, a divine and pure energy came out of Fei’s body and surrounded the ‘iron men’ behind him. Fei stomped his feet, and a golden ring expanded from his body. All the strongmen felt that the injuries in their bodies were healing quickly as soon as the ring covered them. Their waning strength was recovering at an insane rate, and even their confidence and courage were boosted.
It was Paladin’s Aura 【Prayer】
“Hail the King!”
Pierce yelled as he sensed it. He felt his blood burning and really wanted to kill more enemies. His war hammer was like an extension of the God of War’s arm. After a horizontal strike, the cracking sound of metal breaking was as dense as putting cold water into a pot of boiling oil. Four or five enemies screamed as they were blown away by the hammer and flew off of the bridge into the river……
“Hail King Alexander!”
Drogba followed. He gripped the sword that an enemy was striking him with using his left arm, and chopped at the enemy with the axe in the right hand. “Snip”, the head of the owner of the sword was sent flying to the sky.
“Hail the King!!!!”
The rest of the strongmen roared together. Their damage output skyrocketed, as if they had transformed into wild tigers. Even Warden Oleg who was timid and at the very back seemed to be influenced by the atmosphere. He was finally able to properly use his one star warrior’s strength and chopped the three enemies in front of him.
