Chapter 224 Loreford Roger
Chapter 224: Loreford Roger
clang!
The sound of metal colliding was heard, and Du Yi collided violently with a big knife.
Ash looked at the demigod opposite him. He had a head full of white hair but strong muscles, and the iconic one eye.
"The second marshal, Lorford Roger." Ash said in an affirmative tone.
"It's me." The strong old man admitted it without hesitation.
"Are you going to be my enemy too?" Ash asked, "You have a pretty good reputation among the people. I thought you would remain neutral."
"You're overthinking that." Lorford shook his head. "I'm one of the great nobles of this empire. I won't see my interests being fundamentally damaged."
"To be honest, I still have some expectations for you." Yaxiu raised his sword, "but what you said really broke my heart."
"You too, brave man." Lorford said, "What's the point of you starting this uprising? It's nothing more than replacing one group of nobles with another. As long as exploitation still exists, the common people at the bottom will eventually revolt."
"You must have read a lot of history to be able to say that." Ash regained his powers. "But you should understand that some roads, even if they are tortuous, are still moving forward."
"I know that even if I help them once, they will still be destroyed a hundred years later. But even if they are destroyed, some things will be passed down."
"As long as the legacy continues, my hard work will not be in vain!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ash took a step and appeared in front of Loreford, crossing his six swords and slashing them down fiercely.
boom!
Loerford supported himself with his feet and blocked the attack firmly. He looked up and saw a pair of molten gold eyes burning with flames that he could not see clearly.
What was it? Lorford couldn't tell. He could only cut off the slightest tremor and concentrate on dealing with the battle in front of him.
Dangdang Dangdang!
The sound of metal colliding was heard frequently, and in a short period of time, the two sides collided thousands of times.
clang!
After another collision, Ash took the initiative to retreat.
There was no relief on Loerford's face, but he looked solemnly at the men in black standing around him.
In order to kill Brandon instantly, Ash had consumed more than half of his fighting spirit. Facing an enemy like Lolford who was no weaker than Brandon, it would be better to deal with him quickly.
With one step, one hundred and eight Yaxiu's Qi connected, making this piece of heaven and earth independent.
Killing Immortal Sword Formation, rise!
"Fall into the fairy!"
"Excellent Immortal!"
"Kill the Immortal!"
Three times in a row, three swords came out at the same time. Lolford only had time to resist before he was stabbed.
Power, divine fire, and fighting spirit, the three most important things for a warrior, all fell silent, and Lorford's body suddenly hunched over.
He is an old man after all. Even though he has the divine fire to maintain his fighting power, without it, his body functions will deteriorate at a very fast rate.
Ash walked up to Rolf and said, "I'll give you one last chance, General Rolf. Do you want to live or die?"
Loerford also said simply: "I want to live!"
He is not a loyal person. He came here to eliminate Brandon. Otherwise, he could have joined forces with Brandon to besiege Ash.
Brandon also understood this, so he didn't expect Lolford's help in the battle. He was lucky that he didn't do anything dirty.
"Yes." Ash clapped his hands on Lorford, "I have placed a restriction in your body. Now if I think about it, you will die. Do you understand?"
After saying this, Loerford felt as if his body was pierced by thousands of needles.
"I know." Rolf said through gritted teeth, knowing that this was a show of force from Ash. Ash withdrew the Immortal Execution Sword Formation.
"Now, before the emperor reacts, quickly bring your family here." said Yaxiu.
Loerford was stunned. He was just about to mention this, but he didn't expect Ash to say it first.
The original resistance in my heart immediately subsided a lot.
"Thank you." Loerford wanted to say thank you, but suddenly got stuck because he didn't know what to call Ash.
Sir, his attitude seems a little humble, he is a demigod after all; calling him a hero seems disrespectful to Ash.
"Just call me Army Commander." Yaxiu also noticed Lorford's dilemma and said.
"Thank you, Lord Military Commander." Lorford said, "I will be back in three days."
"Yeah." Ash nodded, "Be careful on the road."
"Yes." Loerford left.
Ash ordered his clone to continue the action and cooperate with the Golden Scale Guards to completely take down the fortress below.
In the Imperial Palace, after Nordel III and his ministers discussed today's decision, he asked casually, "Still no news from the front?"
A minister stepped forward and said carefully, "According to intelligence, the hero seems to have a monster under his command that can control people's minds. All the spies sent in have not reported any news."
"No one?" Nordel III raised his voice a little, "Is it true that there is no one, or that no one dares to speak?"
"According to intelligence, there is not a single one." The minister said stiffly.
"Is there no news from Loerford?" Nordell III tapped his fingers on the chair. "Is this how he supervises?"
"Marshal Loerford gave the same reply." The minister's body trembled slightly. "There have been major changes in the Mass Resistance Army. Almost all the previous intelligence has become invalid. He is also working hard on it."
Nordel III smiled, his smile full of chills: "This is the good marshal of our empire. One or two of them can't even track down the enemy."
He didn't believe that the two marshals had spent a month without finding any trace of the enemy, simply because they were afraid to fight and valued their lives.
At this moment, a royal guard hurried into the hall, knelt down and said: "Front-line battle report, the Dragon's Skull Fortress has fallen!"
The hall suddenly fell silent, because Dragon's Skull Fortress was Brandon's base camp, how could that place be lost?
Nordell III said expressionlessly, "Where's Brandon?"
"Marshal Brandon died in battle!" the royal guard said with his head down.
"Yes, a dignified burial." A faint smile appeared on Nordel III's lips. "What about the casualties of the rebels?"
"I don't know." The royal guard said, "It is estimated that no more than 1,000 casualties will be caused."
Nordel III frowned immediately. This was different from the situation he had expected where both sides would suffer losses. He said in a deep voice, "Where is Marshal Loerford? Is he just watching the rebels cause chaos?"
"Marshal Loerford is missing," the royal guard said with his head down.
Nordel III's expression immediately darkened; he had a bad feeling.
At this time, another royal guard rushed in and knelt down and said, "Urgent report from the front line, Marshal Loerford has surrendered to the enemy! All the direct descendants of Roger's family in the imperial city have escaped!"
The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Everyone could feel the chill coming down from the throne.
