Chapter 176: Heavenly Lions Battalion

There was no further reply from the Lying Water kingdom army's side, but a few hundred individuals among their ranks began to gather in a single attacking formation, and then they quickly advanced towards the shield wall

*Knights!* The first thing that crossed everyone's mind when they saw their speed

"If they continued at that pace they will surely make a huge hole in the shield wall!" Saint David muttered, then shouted to his left, " The Heavenly Lions battalion, Advance!!"

800 individuals in full categorized body armor with a roaring lion icon engraved on their armor, quickly advanced and stood in a defensive formation in front of the shield wall… all of them were knights!

These were the knights who had emerged from the new nobles families that swore allegiance to the Burtons in the New Lands over the past few years, an entire battalion of knights had been formed from them alone!

it is worth mentioning all that they got was a weak minor law heavenly technique that appeared strong because of how perfect the law technique is, and they still had such numbers of knights emerging from their ranks… it shows how much these people were thirsty for power!

"Get out of the way you damn weaklings!!" The Lying Water Knight who was running up in front shouted, they came expecting resistance for their enemy knights, but the ones that came out to stop them were just… too trashy!

Those who loved to battle were actually disappointed at what they saw!

Standing on the hill, with a single look saint David could determine the level of the man who just shouted… a level 20 knight… and those behind him as well wasn't too far off, almost half of them were above level 14

Although their numbers are also around 800, the quality difference between the two parties was like day and night! 

knowing that his own battalion consists of knights that are at levels between 11 to 13, Saint David bubbles shrank.

BOOOOM

The first clash was too bloody, as soon as the two parties meet, too many heads and body parts fell to the ground… all of them belonging to the heavenly lions' battalion knights.

The attacks of water and fire were flying everywhere, but the water always won, quickly, a great crack began to appear in the ranks of the heavenly lions' battalion, it was clear that this *battle* wouldn't last for another 5 minutes.

"What are you waiting for? do something!!" Robin raised his voice as he saw the sight in front of him, he couldn't control himself any more, this massacre can't be allowed to continue

"Damn it," David cursed, then shouted, "Caesar, take your men and—"

"NO!" Robin interrupted with a shout, "Leave the Fire legion aside, seeing the current situation, we will need them in another mission soon."

"What do you need them for? This is the knights' battle! Secondly, if I leave him aside, what do I do then?!" David shouted at him

"Send out the Darkness Legion quickly, and appointed the Wind Legion to help from afar as well!" Robin suggested

"Right!! Theo, take your men and go, you know what you have to do! Peon, shoot those bastards down, don't allow them to have their way!"

"We hear and obey!" The two bowed and disappeared

——

"7th and 8th battalions go to the right flank, 5th and 4th battalions, stay here help to break through, 3rd battalion- Ughgg."

The field commander of the Lying Water Knights couldn't finish his words, a metal arrow was planted in the middle of his throat… 

and before he could try to take it out, the arrow exploded, causing his head to burst thirty meters into the air before hitting the ground in a frightening sight.

"Your priority is to concentrate on anyone who tries to give orders! your second priority is to help our knights there as much as you can, don't give them time to even think about advancing again!" Peon shouted as he lowered his bow from about a kilometer away from the target

"Yes, commander!" The 600 Wind Legion soldiers responded in union before they pull back their bow strings and shouted 600 metal arrows towards the knights' battle field 

*swoooosh*

The extraordinary sense of hearing that users of the Major heavenly Law of Wind possess combined with the added wind speed of the arrows and their ability to change their direction after the launch… 

made these categorized metal arrows more lethal than any long-range weapon known to the planet… 

Especially when you attach level TEN Fire Explosion talismans to the arrows!

"STAY LOW! Watch out for those arrows!!" shouts and screams of the Lying Water knights' formation began to resound for the first time since the first clash happen…

Even though the 600 arrows had successfully reached their targets, it had only managed to kill 15 knights of them, the rest managed to block the arrows, but it was at the cost of retreating in front of their opponent and losing ground and momentum

Just after the first wave of the arrows, the advance of the Lying Water knights stopped and they began to fight the Burton's Heavenly lions battalion more cautiously as they put half their mind in trying to predict and stop the incoming weird arrows.

"AAAHHHHH"

While everyone else was preoccupied with the arrows or the low-level knights standing in front of them, a loud cry resounded from one of the knights, as he found a dagger piercing his heart from behind…

"What is it..?"

"They are using dark talismans! watch out!!"

"Come close and protect each other's backs!!"

First, the Lying water knights came with great confidence and didn't care about Cooperation and coordination between themselves, seeing Burton's knights were much weaker, they just wanted to get it over with as soon as possible… 

Then they started to leave spaces between them due to the exploding strange arrows and their advance stopped due to the killing of a number of their ground leaders… 

And now they came back to approach each other again and slowly retreated after the Knights of the Dark Legion appeared…

Everything was going perfectly, even Saint David started to smile from ear to ear at the sight in front of him

"It won't work…" Robin's voice beside him cut off his satisfied smile

"Hmm? What are you talking about? look ahead of you, We are winning!" The general looked next to him, furrowing an eyebrow

Robin did not answer him directly, but Robin inserted his soul sense into the ring, he was clearly sending a message.

A moment later, movements began to occur in the lines of the army that attracted Saint David's attention, and he found that the Fire legion was retreating behind the hill, he looked back at Robin quickly, "Was it you who ordered this? Where did you send them?!"

Robin raised his finger and pointed at a certain point among the enemy army, "Do you see their general?"

"Huh? Of course not…" David shook his head after casting his eyes in that direction, it was a sea of ​​soldiers!

Even when he was talking before, he didn't see him, so how can he spot him now?

"I just pointed him out for you, you still can't see him? … anyway,  I see him clearly." Robin fixed his gaze at a very angry-looking old man, giving commands left and right. 

With his eyes, Robin could even read the movements of his lips from that distance, then continued, "He intends to send the 20 Saints of his to help the knights to complete their mission and open a hole in the shield wall, they will join the fight in a few minutes 

and he is also ordering his army to stand ready and to ignore the knights battle and quickly get through that hole when the saints open it… the situation will be devastating if that happens."

"They have 20 Saints?! What the hell are Galan and Raymond doing there? how can they spare 20 saints and send them here?!" David panicked, 

as he calculated, there currently have 6 Saints from the Burton family, 4 of them are only level 21, plus Mila, meaning 7 Saints in total, trying to struggle against 20 saints… 

"well, this is the army of Harris family the middle Duchy that wasn't attacked, they send quite a few of their own here… it seems that they came with much more ambition than just relieving their anger!" 

Saint David panicked, "This is bad… what do we do? Why did you make Caesar withdraw with the Fire Legion, we could use that combined attack now!!"

" Hey, that wasn't easy on me and you know it, stop counting on it! …plus, If I do it, I will burn our knights too, and if we tell them to retreat back first, the wall of shields will collapse because of the enemy's knights even before their saints arrive, that definitely won't work." Robin shook his head.

"This.. what to do then..?!" The Saint asked again, commanding armies was definitely not his greatest point.

"….Do what I will tell you to the letter."
