Chapter 1206: Chapter 727: The Battle of the Lords_1 Chapter 1206: Chapter 727: The Battle of the Lords_1 Under the glaring suns, large and small, the raging war flas continued to boil on the earth. The thunderous clamor of killing echoed through the heavens and the earth, almost deafening to the ears.
Beneath the smoke-filled Greyrock City, a young male commander in black armor, holding a heavy bow, shouted, “Charge! Everything is for the Lord!”
This young commander, with an excited look on his face, held his longbow high. Each ti he pulled the bowstring, at least three feathered arrows shot out, causing opposing archers on the towering city walls to scream and fall.
Behind him, an array of well-equipped soldiers raised their shields amidst the arrow rain, climbed the temporary staircased earth bunkers created by Earth Elent Magicians, and rushed onto the city wall.
This young commander was Layne, the leader of another independent Knights group under Leo Ray – the Broken Blade Knights. The soldiers around him were naturally the elite knights of the Broken Blade Knights.
Layne’s family situation was much like that of Tina.
During the chaos in the Coldfla Kingdom, the rising new nobles had robbed their lands, turning them into holess and impoverished nobility. Greyrock City was once the fiefdom of Layne’s family.
For more than two hundred years after their land was seized, Layne’s parents and grandparents had watched as the forrly peaceful Greyrock City was divided into two completely different worlds, inside and outside the city.
They had witnessed the free farrs, who once lived in abundance, beco enslaved agricultural laborers with no freedom like livestock. And these people were once the folks they had guarded for more than four hundred years.
They watched their forr subjects being constantly trampled on by the new brutish and blood-sucking nobles. As the once-appointed guardians, they were powerless, had to submit to the new nobles that occupied the place and barely maintained the knight battalion while struggling to survive.
This extrely angry but helpless feeling was like a gene engraved in Layne’s bones.
“Today, with the help of the Lord, my family has finally reclaid what used to belong to us! I’ll offer it all to Lord!”
With this thought, Layne, who was leading the charge, had already stord the Greyrock City wall. With the heavy bow drawn to a full moon, he directly pierced the throat of the bewildered commander of Greyrock City.
As the commander fell with a loud thump, the leaderless reserve army of Greyrock City quickly collapsed, screaming and fleeing in fear. They were no match for Layne and his knights.
Within a short ti, the walls of Greyrock City were completely under Layne’s control, and his n began advancing towards the City Lord Mansion in the city center.
During this process, more and more free farrs joined the ranks of the Knights, roaring together as they marched toward the city’s hinterland.
After two centuries, the city’s forr guardians finally stood with their people once again!
Under this formidable offensive, Layne quickly led his army to capture the City Lord Mansion of Greyrock City, reclaiming the city’s throne.
At this point, Greyrock City finally dispelled the lingering dark clouds and welcod the brilliant sunshine.
Under the sunlight, a small seed of hope was sprouting rapidly in the hearts of every free farr.
Of course, under Leo Ray’s strategic planning, the transformation of this new noble force’s territory was far from over.
To the north of the new noble forces’ territory, Lord Hode of Golin City, along with Rita and Reece leading Golin City’s Defense Army, had captured two small cities belonging to the new nobles in a two-pronged attack.
As for the Goblin Legion waiting in Dragon’s Lair, they had rged with Roscoe and Benson’s troops, advancing mightily from the east towards the new noble forces.
As for the Viennas City Defense Army led by Asher Porter, they had continued advancing south after annihilating Veere’s rear army.
Under the coordinated attacks from the three sides and two independent Knights groups, the eleven cities of the new nobles’ territory were completely divided and no longer posed any threat.
“Layne, Greyrock City is yours now. Stabilize the city as soon as possible.”
Shortly after receiving a victory ssage from Tina, Leo Ray also received a report from Layne.
Closing the Mind Talk, Leo Ray couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
So far, he had already taken control of more than half of the 23 cities shared by the traditional and new nobles. The remaining ones were no doubt dood as well.
“It seems like everything is going very smoothly.”
At this thought, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
Now, of the three pressing troubles he had identified previously, only the last one remained – Galaxy City on the star corridor.
Only by quickly capturing this fortress city connecting the other Coldfla regions could they completely cut off the reinforcents that might arrive from the Great Prince and the Second Prince.
“Prior to this, the most elite Royal Guard Squads from Firsdale City and Mystara City had secretly infiltrated Galaxy City as inside supporters. As for the outside attackers, Quinn Serena led the Lane No.9 Club with a total of 6,000 Lord forces.”
