CHAPTER 45 OF 188

Chapter 45: Crossing the Sea of Fire

It had to be said that Toji Hisami had a good face, and his confident and chic smile even in the midst of the war stabilized their hearts.

Everyone was not heading toward the east where there were no wildfires, but toward the west where the fire was the strongest.

It was precisely because of this that there were very few interceptions along the way, and they quickly rushed to the hillside.

Just as they were about to rush into the sea of fire, the blazing heat wave made people unable to open their eyes and tears flowed wildly.

The subordinates of the lords began to become confused and instinctively wanted to flee back.

The level of these lords was not high, the lord rank was not enough, and the strength of their soul attributes was insufficient, so their control over their troops was not enough.

However, Lyra held her spear high at this time, and an invisible halo spread out.

Aura of Oath.

All the teams calmed down instantly.

Even the lords felt that they were very sharp at this moment and immediately began to gather their troops.

Then Toji Hisami took out the strange book and pointed his finger.

"Wind, rise."

Wind began to blow around them, swirling around them and taking away all the heat waves.

Toji Hisami had actually created a safe path right through the sea of fire.

Taking advantage of the situation was one of the core ideas of balance.

In a wildfire of this scale, Toji Hisami couldn’t achieve this even if he exhausted all his magic power trying to use the water element, which was the most direct counter.

But using the wind to guide and transfer the heat saved a lot of effort.

It was just that the requirements for the caster were quite high; if someone didn’t handle it well enough, they could be swallowed by the sea of fire.

Everyone admired and held Toji Hisami in awe at this time, seeing him as well-deserved of being number one on the gold list.

Toji Hisami showed them impressive abilities in every detail.

As long as they saw his back, they felt extremely peaceful inside.

It was as if following him would break through all obstacles, making all previous hesitations and doubts disappear without a trace.

Toji Hisami controlled the wind and led everyone all the way to the top of the mountain.

Just when they arrived, the mountain fire in front suddenly broke out violently, and a strong shock wave rushed toward them.

Toji Hisami’s eyes narrowed, and he spread his fingers and pushed.

"Wind Shield!"

A green wind shield collided with the oncoming flames, exploding a fire tornado directly on the spot.

Behind the fire tornado, a group of cavalry came out!

The leading knight broke through the sea of fire and looked at Toji Hisami.

Lyra immediately stood in front of Toji Hisami, raising the shield in her hand and assuming a fighting posture.

However, the next moment, the cavalry team reined in unison, in perfect order!

This scene fell into Toji Hisami’s eyes, and a word came to his mind: elite.

This was a real elite force.

The leading knight lifted up his visor, revealing a dirt-smudged face.

His split lips and white teeth made him look very funny.

"Toji Hisami, do you still remember me?"

"The trainee lord Boris has come to join you!" Boris said with a smile.

Surrounded by seas of fire with heat waves rising into the sky, the surroundings were a scene of apocalyptic destruction.

However, at this moment, Toji Hisami stood quietly in the dangerous situation, the wind turning around him without losing his composure.

Boris’s eyes lit up.

After his team of cavalry appeared, all the other lords turned pale, except Toji Hisami who remained completely calm.

This magnanimity alone made Boris admire him immensely.

He was truly worthy of being the person he wanted to align with, striking right at his heart.

When Toji Hisami heard Boris reveal his background, he immediately recalled the man in the Hall of Knowledge from that face.

That fellow who didn’t make it past three levels and was directly eliminated.

Toji Hisami originally thought that the other party was ordinary, but he didn’t expect that he had such an elite lord under him.

His background had to be extraordinary.

"You should be careful, we are in a state of embarrassment now."

"Hahaha, it doesn’t matter! If you run away, I will run with you. If you want to fight, I will be your spear!"

Boris’s eyes were piercing, and the sparkle in his eyes was unmistakable, showing extremely strong self-confidence.

This kind of self-confidence was not something that ordinary lords could possess; it had to be obtained after seeing grand scenes and going through countless rounds of training.

It was a temperament deeply rooted in his bones.

Just like Toji Hisami.

"Interesting," Toji Hisami thought.

"Enter the formation and report your unit information."

"Under the command of the family general, Boris leads the family’s unique military unit, the Flying Tiger Cavalry, reporting for duty!"

A special unit! The Flying Tiger Cavalry!

Everyone who heard Boris’s report brightened up and stood in awe.

Special units were based on the natural resources available after a human territory developed to a certain level, trained specifically according to physical conditions.

Their starting point was third-level professional characteristics.

In terms of professional abilities, although both were level three professions, they were one level higher than Toji Hisami’s shield guards.

However, because Toji Hisami’s shield guards had the help of Heaven Rewards Diligence, their individual attributes still surpassed Boris’s cavalry.

After the two sides met, Boris’s cavalry also stared at the shield guards.

Of all the soldiers on Toji Hisami’s side, only the shield guards made them feel threatened.

As brave warriors, Toji Hisami’s shield guards also held their heads high and chests out unconsciously, quietly releasing their momentum to show the demeanor of the strong.

Boris took off his helmet and wiped the black ash from his face with his hand.

From this high point, the battle situation in the valley could be seen clearly.

The orc leader had been completely controlled, and after joining the battle, he turned around and trapped the human forces from all sides.

The civilian lords who had wanted to steal the loot were also surrounded, and the situation was critical.

The lords on both the alliance side and the civilian side exploded with all their strength at this time, as various skills emerged one after another.

The fighting was extremely fierce, directly scaling into a meat-grinder battle.

By this time, they no longer thought about the light beam reward; they only thought about escaping from the area and surviving.
