Morale was one of the keys to winning the war, and what Tang Shaoyang did was to lower the enemy's morale. Not this was necessary since they were winning anyway, whether the enemy's army had high or low morale, but he just wanted to end this quickly. He did not want to waste his time and missed the tower summoning on Earth.
Of course, another reason was that the Legend Rank posed no challenge to him. After a single fight against Robert Kingsley. He had killed the man called Powan as well and reached level 2712. His level increased by killing another Legend Rank, and what, he still could not advance to the next rank. At this point, he had given up to reach the next rank, even with the Left-Wing Guardian.
Sure enough, chaos formed within the Lionax Kingdom's army. Great unrest spread out among the knights and with additionally the confused commanders because of Rosalie's appearance, the knights were unsure what to do, and their mental state was unstable for sure.
"You are still alive, Flame Queen?" King Emerson questioned Rosalie. The only person who did not have a memory of Rosalie, so he was not affected by her appearance. As The King, he knew that he should show his people that he deserved to be their monarch, not this Flame Queen. He did not show his weak side even though he was in front of the previous ruler.
"Alive? Your father should know if I am still alive or not, though you can't ask him anymore because…." She did not finish her words as Tang Shaoyang showed The Right-Wing Guardian's dead body. "Oh, you can't recognize him anymore because this body is incomplete." Tang Shaoyang realized that they would not recognize the body with no flesh, bone, or hair.
"What about this one?" Tang Shaoyang pulled out The Crown Prince and The Second Prince's dead bodies. It was as if his inventory was filled with collections of the dead bodies, and he kept showing the dead bodies.
"NO!!!!!!" King Emerson screamed on top of his lungs at the sight of his dead sons. He had three sons, and now three of them have died. His breath became hurried as he activated Bloodline Transformation and turned into the Flaming Lion. Without a second thought, King Emerson charged toward the sky.
"Don't!" The Left-Wing Guardian tried to stop King Emerson, but he was too late. The King leaped through the air and tried to reach Tang Shaoyang. King Emerson was just Myth Rank, the weakest King in the Lionax Kingdom's history, though there were only two precedents, Flame Queen and Robert Kingsley.
"Don't meddle, Rabbit. He is my prey!" Rosalie, who was idle all this time, reminded Moonsong, who was about to block King Emerson. Rosalie the Flame Empress came forward, standing in front of Tang Shaoyang, and she extended her right hand toward the incoming King Emerson. A giant vortex of flame formed from her hand and pulled King Emerson into the center of the flame vortex.
The vortex flame exploded and spat out a figure toward the ground. At the same time, a wave of flame came down toward the Lionax Kingdom's army. King Emerson crashed into the ground in the middle of his army, creating a blazing pit and killing the knights around him.
"Get up and fight, Larry! Think about your family? What will happen to them if you die here?" The Left-Wing Guardian realized that they were in a dire situation and immediately called out to Larry, who was crying while kneeling on the ground. 'What are you doing, Robert? How can the two princes die? What happened at Braum City?'
'No, our priority is to escape from this place first and regroup with Robert. That's only our chance to win.' The Left-Wing Guardian still believed that Robert was still alive. The human's skin was just a trick to scare them. He believed so.
Lorion extended his hand toward the wave of flame and reflected the flame with his wind. Of course, the disaster could not be avoided because the flame wave landed on his armies. "Attack! Our only chance to survive is to fight them! Attack!"
A plan was formulated in his mind to use over a hundred thousand knights as bait. While the knights blocked the enemy, he would use that chance to escape. At this point, he did not even care if King Emerson was still alive or not. He tried to incite Larry to fight, but his effort was useless because Larry did not budge from his position.
Lorion expected the knights to attack Bareham City at his shout, but he was surprised because no one attacked the city. Yes, the knights did not listen to his order. "What are you doing? Attack the city!" Using his aura, Larry shouted angrily.
Instead of attacking the city, the knights threw their weapons and shields to the ground and knelt. Lorion was flabbergasted with the situation. "Don't give up! We have the numbers! We can win!"
After Lorion finished his words, the sky darkened, and Lorion subconsciously looked to the sky. It was not raining, no dark clouds. The cause was the aerial beasts that came from Gigante Forest. The sky filled with those aerial beasts to the point he could not see the sky anymore, and the sun disappeared from his sight.
Lorion immediately activated his bloodline transformation, and a pair of green-feathered wings formed on his back. He did not hesitate to flap his wings and flew toward the opposite direction of Gigante Forest. He straight abandoned his army and his king for his life.
"Where do you think you are going?" Of course, Tang Shaoyang would not let his prey slip off his hand. He appeared in front of Lorion, blocking the Left-Wing Guardian's path to escape. The Left-Wing Guardian was about to change direction, but the Angel of Death was right behind him.
Swoosh!
At this moment, an arrow shot through the air and ripped apart Lorion's wing. "ARGHHH!" The Left-Wing Guardian screamed in pain. Without his wing, he could not maintain his position in the air. As he fell, he looked toward the direction of the arrow and discovered another figure that he did not expect to be there, The Elven King Revalor.
'There's no way I can escape from this place.. I am doomed.'
