Chapter 650 Adrian's First Contribution
Five days later, Weilin left Nax City with 35,000 soldiers of the 15th Army and military supplies enough for 70,000 people to use for half a year, and headed for Beilin City, a port city 300 kilometers away.
In order to take care of the auxiliary troops, Weilin had to slow down the march.
After marching for forty hours, the 15th Army arrived at the territory under the jurisdiction of Beilin City.
Standing on the cliff and looking out to sea, Weilin could clearly see the island two hundred kilometers away, with signs of life on it.
However, the main purpose of the expeditionary force now is to attack eastward and meet up with the expeditionary force of the Kingdom of Northern Issi in the capital of the Angoya Empire. As for these islands outside the mainland, not much time is spent on them.
"My lord, Lord Brian's troops are out of touch." Greg Weilin stood beside him, pounding his chest and saluted, then began to report.
Weilin turned around and asked, "What caused it?"
"My lord, thousands of wild beasts from the jungle have attacked Lord Brian's troops, and they are now clearing out these beasts." Greg replied respectfully upon hearing this.
"Beast?"
Greg explained, "My Lord, according to our worldview, those with strength lower than that of a Bronze professional are called beasts, but according to the views of the local natives, those beasts are called magic beasts. Due to the differences in the world, according to my understanding, these beasts have more or less combat capabilities."
After thinking for a moment, Weilin gave up the idea of sending troops for support. If his cousin couldn't even deal with these beasts, he would have to change his strategy.
"Pass the order down, the entire army will rest for six hours."
"Yes, my lord."
Dozens of heralds passed on the order, and the marching team stretching for 20 kilometers stopped.
……
In the jungle, Brian stood in the army, and with the assistance of Adrian, he commanded his troops and the 13th Longsword Battalion of the Crusaders to clear out the beasts that suddenly appeared.
Due to terrain restrictions, the 300 knights under his command could not play a role. He could only let them stay in the back and hunt down any fish that escaped the net.
On the front line, hundreds of soldiers carried iron shields to resist the impact of the huge beasts.
Behind the shield, the warrior holding a long sword took advantage of the gap in the shield to attack the beast.
On the low hill, more than three hundred archers kept shooting arrows, killing the wild beasts within their sight.
Looking at the beasts cooperating with each other, Adrian said, "My Lord, there are people doing mischief in the jungle. How about I go and find them out?"
Upon hearing this, Brian took off his knight's sword, handed it to his guardian knight, and warned him, "Be careful."
Adrian took the extraordinary knight sword from his master, looked at the name on it, nodded solemnly, covered his body with fighting spirit, and flew into the depths of the jungle.
The world rules are loosened, and golden professionals can fly.
Deep in the jungle, the beasts hiding in the tree trunks looked at the humans rushing towards them and shouted, "Retreat!"
Feeling the fluctuation of magic in the air, Adrian slashed a sword to the left front.
Hundreds of big trees fell down, and the wild animals hiding in the tree trunks were cut in half and fell to the ground, wailing in pain.
"So it's you rats."
Standing in the air, Adrian looked expressionlessly at these dwarfs who were less than 1.5 meters tall.
The next moment, feeling the magic attack coming from the right rear, Adrian raised his right hand, forming a magic shield to block it.
Turning around, I saw the silhouette of a green-haired woman emerging from the trunk of a large tree.
"Golden Professional, let your head become my master's first military achievement in the expedition campaign."
As soon as he finished speaking, Adrian condensed dozens of flaming spears and flew towards the green-haired girl.
At the same time, his body shape changed and he used the combat skill [Wind Breath Without Trace].
After breaking away from the tree trunk, green light bloomed on the green-haired girl's body surface, and her body gradually expanded and turned into a five-meter-tall war bear.
Faced with dozens of flaming spears, the war bear used its arms to protect its head and withstand the damage.
The next moment, Adrian appeared behind the giant war bear like lightning, condensing his fighting spirit on the knight's sword, forming an eight-meter-long fighting spirit sword, and chopped down.
Sensing the attack coming from behind, the War Bear struggled to move its huge body despite the damage caused by the flaming spear.
"Roar--"
A shrill and tragic roar echoed in the jungle.
"Lord Ella."
"hateful!"
"asshole……"
Hearing the sounds around him, Adrian raised his right hand and whispered, "【Wind Blade】."
In an instant, dozens of wind blades appeared out of thin air, like the scythe of the god of death, strangling the three silver female assassins who wanted to rescue the green-haired girl at an extremely fast speed.
There was a scream, and the three silver female assassins were instantly torn into pieces of flesh and blood.
After killing three people, the power of the wind blade did not decrease and continued to spread in all directions.
In less than a moment, thousands of large trees fell down under the ravages of the wind blades and turned into a pile of sawdust.
Looking at the bloodstains on the broken wood, Adrian's eyes flashed with surprise.
He didn't expect that the silver-level spell he casually cast would cause such powerful destructive power.
Adrian slowly fell from the air and looked at the green-haired woman with half of her body cut off. Her skin was as white as snow, smooth and flawless, and as beautiful as a work of art, but unfortunately, she was about to die.
"Damn invaders, you will pay the price for your actions. The God of Beasts will tear your souls apart and take away your..."
Adrien stared at the green-haired girl. Although he couldn't understand what she was saying, he was sure from her expression and tone that it was definitely not something good.
With indifference to life in his eyes, Adrian raised the knight's sword without hesitation, then gently dropped it, and a beautiful head rolled into the grass.
Looking at the headless corpse, the expression on his face did not change at all.
Without stopping, Adrian picked up the head, turned around and flew towards the direction of his master.
Without the control of the Beast Master, thousands of wild beasts were quickly killed by the army.
When Adrian returned to the battlefield, the battle was over.
"My Lord, this is the mastermind behind this."
Brian looked at the beautiful head in Adrian's hand and laughed at himself: "I thought I would get the first military merit in the expedition campaign, but I didn't expect you to get there first."
Adrian saw this and quickly suggested, "My Lord, how about I find the body and attach this head, and you chop it off again."
His expression was very serious, as if he really intended to do this.
"Hahaha, no need, I just said that, no need to be so serious." Brian laughed and patted Adrian on the shoulder, then turned around to deal with post-war matters.
