Chapter 208: The Hero Arrives (4K thanks to Xiaobao for being the leader!)
In the dark and depressing muddy battlefield, the sky was shrouded in thick fog.

Just as the sun was gradually dimming, a dazzling light of blood pierced through the suffocating darkness.

The angel with blood-red wings fell from the sky like a burning meteor.

laugh--

The blood-red wings were like sharp blades, creating a whistling gale as they descended at high speed, fiercely cutting through the thick fog.

Although the swamp boar fell heavily to the ground, its thick skin and flesh meant it suffered no substantial damage.

He shook his head vigorously, soon regained consciousness and let out an angry roar.

"Roar!"

But before it could figure out who had hurt it, the bloody meteor had already fallen on its head!
laugh--

At the critical moment, the swamp boar instinctively twisted its head, so the sharp sword blade did not pierce its head directly, but stabbed into its neck at an angle.

The thick fur that it was so proud of was of no use at all in front of the extremely sharp sword.

The sword blade easily penetrated the monster's hard skin, stabbed directly into its vitals, and finally got stuck between the bones.

"Roar!!?"

Under the severe pain, the swamp boar suddenly became violent, its muscles suddenly tensed, and it actually clamped the sword blade tightly within its body.

The already huge body expanded again!
Go crazy!

This is a special individual that can enter a frenzy state when on the verge of death!

Moreover, compared with the general berserk ability, this ability has great side effects.

The wounds on the skin were originally stretched tight by the muscles, but now they were torn apart directly after the expansion, and blood was oozing out of many wounds.

Its muscles were trembling violently. The pain from the wound seemed to arouse its ferocity even more, and its aura increased again!

Everyone who sees this scene will know that it can’t last much longer.

However, in the period before its death, it will transform into the most terrifying and violent chariot.

The bloody figure did not try to pull out the sword directly, but loosened his hand, and when the monster shook its head fiercely, he jumped lightly and floated in the air.

The monster raised its head and let out an earth-shaking roar that seemed to crack the sky apart.

Its eyes turned scarlet after being stained with blood, like burning flames, staring at the enemy in the air ahead.

The pig's trotters dug the ground frantically, raising large pieces of mud, and rushed up suddenly, cracking the mud with every drop.

With only the enemy in its eyes, it rushed forward and broke the trees in the mud.

But unfortunately, every charge was easily avoided by the figure at the last moment.

There is a huge gap between the beast that can only run on the ground and the figure soaring in the sky.

"hehe."

The angel's chuckle reached the ears of the stunned Phao.

"That, that's..."

The Paladin, who had been prepared to sacrifice himself, stood still, staring blankly at the nimble figure flying quickly in the sky and fighting with the monsters.

"Is it my Lord's fighting angel?..."

The blood-colored wings and the sharp murderous intent on his body made Fao unconsciously think of the description he had seen in the church scriptures:
"They are tall and majestic, with huge wings extending from their backs, and each feather is made of starlight."

"His face was as stern as a god, and his eyes were burning with the flames of war, which were enough to illuminate the dark abyss."

"They swooped down from the clouds and rushed into the darkness like meteors."

"Wherever the angels go, darkness retreats, the light of justice spreads across the earth, and the scorching sun lasts forever."

It was the Lord of the Sun who heard my prayers and sent His messenger to save me... No.

wrong!

The strength of the Holy War Angels cannot be so weak. The weakest one should have legendary strength.

Moreover, after seeing the white hair dyed red, he suddenly came back to his senses.

The person before me is not an angel.

But...

"Sir Herbert?" Fao uttered something that sounded like a whisper.

Could this person be Mr. Herbert?
After thinking about this moment, he couldn't believe his own thoughts at all.

What on earth was I thinking... How could it be Herbert?

He is just a child.

Although he possessed great talent and quickly demonstrated high-level strength, he was no match for the figure before him.

Although gray hair is rare, it’s not like there are other people in this world who also have this feature.

What's more, there is no way to explain the wings behind him... Could it be the transformation of the stigmata?
No, that's impossible, that's too exaggerated!

Just when Fao was confused, the figure seemed to notice his gaze, and turned around and smiled at him while dodging.

!!!

After seeing the young face stained with blood, Fao was completely stunned.

He couldn't believe his own thoughts, but he was not blind!
Herbert.

That's really Herbert!!!
Three months ago, he was just a weak nobleman, but now he has become a strong man who can fight against violent monsters.

"Hey!"

"Are you ok?"

While dodging, Herbert turned around to look at the Paladin who was ready to sacrifice himself to save others, sized him up, and said with a smile:

"It seems that I am not too late."

In the past, Herbert actually always couldn't understand why the heroic protagonists in various works always arrived late at the critical moment.

Heroes always appear at the most critical moment?
Couldn't you come earlier?
Is the road so congested?
Do you have to wait until the most critical moment to make your debut?
However, when he finally had the opportunity to become such a person, Herbert discovered that this feeling was really...

It was a great flight!
Because in the story, those who come late cannot become heroes, but only become the protagonists of the tragedy.

Those who arrive early cannot become heroes.

They can be reliable reinforcements, but they can't be heroes who turn the situation around.

Adding icing on the cake can never be better than providing timely help.

Only those who arrive at the right time and turn the tide of battle with their own strength...only such people can be called heroes.

Although Herbert did not intend to do so, he still successfully experienced the feeling of being a "hero" by chance.

Not long ago, he was following the ghost wolf that "luckily escaped" to hunt the next wave of wolves.

Let one go, follow him, let another go, follow him, let another go...

After repeating this three times, Herbert's magic resistance increased by 20% from the original level.

While searching for the fourth wave of wolves, he happened to run into the fleeing Paladins.

There was no time to explain more. After he figured out the situation, he flew here immediately.

If he had arrived ten seconds later, Fao would have been crushed into a pulp by the swamp boar.

Fortunately, I was not late.

The victims with noble will should not have met such an end.

"Roar!!!" And when Herbert was distracted and sighing, the swamp boar seized the opportunity.

It suddenly raised its head, and its sharp fangs scraped across his body, almost piercing Herbert's body.

"Tsk! Why aren't you dead yet?"

Herbert smacked his lips, impressed by the monster's tenacious vitality.

He originally thought that he wouldn't be able to hold out for long with such a serious injury, but judging from the other party's lively appearance now, he could at least hold out for three minutes.

Sometimes, three minutes is too short.

It will make countless men cry and women angry.

But sometimes, three minutes is too long.

Although Fao can still maintain this dying state for a while, the longer he stays in this dying state, the greater the damage to him will be.

Herbert narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, then suddenly flew upwards and rushed towards Fao.

The bog boar started suddenly and chased after Herbert angrily.

Don’t run away!!!

But it was wrong, Herbert's purpose was not to escape directly with Fao.

Having come this far, how could I let you go so easily?

At the moment when he was about to fight Fao, Herbert snatched away his raised sword.

"I'll lend you your sword."

! ! ?

Phao originally thought that Herbert wanted to take him away, but he didn't expect that he wanted to borrow his sword.

After being stunned for a moment, he shouted hurriedly.

"Wait! My sword is not strong enough..."

His sword was not of high enough grade and the blade was not sharp enough, so there was no way to break the defense of the swamp boar.

If Herbert wanted to use such a weapon to fight the Swamp Boar, he would inevitably be dragged down by it.

"rest assured!"

Herbert chuckled while holding the sword, flipped his sword, and turned to rush towards the boar.

"That's enough."

And at the moment he gripped the hilt of the sword, the blade, which had been gradually dimming, suddenly burst into bright light.

Fire suddenly broke out!

The extreme solar flames turned the sword blade into a red fire blade.

hum! ! !
The brightness of the light was even higher than what Faol had achieved before!

"This……"

Such an exaggerated grace! ! ?
This paladin who had believed in the Sun God all his life felt confused at this moment.

Am I the servant of my Lord, or is he?
Why is he more favored by our Lord than me?
Herbert didn't care about that.

He mobilized his spirit and launched a final attack on the wild boar monster again!

His wings vibrated, his body drew a graceful arc in the air, and the sword in his hand stabbed the monster fiercely.

"Roar!!!"

At the last moment of its life, the wild boar showed its most violent ferocity, gave up all defenses, and raised its fangs towards the enemy that was rushing towards it.

Even if I die, I will pierce you through and through!
At the last moment, the despicable human beings did not fight it with bayonets according to the code of conduct.

Instead, he instantly moved sideways with it and turned the sword horizontally, changing from stabbing to cutting, and stabbed fiercely into the corner of the monster's eye.

“Feel the momentum.”

At this moment, Herbert tensed the muscles in his palms and arms, gripped the hilt tightly, and slashed forward relying on the speed of both parties.

stab-

This sword seemed to be understated, but it contained endless power due to the combined speed of both sides. The flaming blade easily penetrated the monster's hard skin.

Cut most of its flesh in half!
"Roar--"

The monster howled unwillingly in severe pain. With most of its huge body cut off, it could no longer hold on and fell to the ground with a bang, raising a swamp of mud.

boom! ! !
Herbert floated quietly beside the monster's corpse, his blood-red wings trembling slightly, as if telling of the fierceness of the battle.

The atmosphere of holiness and bloodiness permeated the battlefield, making him look like an invincible fighting angel.

Herbert landed on top of the wild boar and raised his hand to pull out his sword.

laugh!
In an instant, hot blood spurted out from the aorta, gushing into the sky like a fountain, heralding the death of a powerful monster.

This time, Herbert did not bathe in blood again. Instead, he turned around with two swords in hand and rushed towards Fao, who had been stunned for a long time.

But what reached Phao faster than Herbert was a column of water.

The water washed over Fao's body, taking away the blood on his body and making him wet, looking even more miserable.

But Fao's sudden surprised expression proved the changes that had taken place in him.

! ! ?

At this moment, he felt that his vitality had increased greatly, and except for serious injuries such as broken bones, most of his injuries were healed instantly.

Is there a legendary priest here?!?
He turned around gratefully, only to find a woman in the distance whom he had never seen before.

It was a very strange thing to see a woman in a dress in such an ancient and dense forest full of swamps.

But Fao did not behave disrespectfully, but bowed his head respectfully.

"thanks for your help."

This looks like... a legendary wizard?
Who exactly is this Excellency?
But Freme ignored him and focused all her eyes on Herbert. After confirming that he was only stained with the blood of the monster, she relaxed and nodded with a smile.

"Flemme, have the others been treated?"

Freme wanted to answer, but she glanced at the seriously injured and dying Fao, and finally nodded slightly.

After meeting those people, Herbert rushed over quickly, while she stayed with them and performed spell treatment on them.

Freme was worried that Herbert was in danger, so after giving him perfunctory treatment, she left those people and rushed over.

Freme looked at Herbert with sparkling eyes, and felt more and more that she had made the right decision.

Although this trip with Herbert had only started for less than half a day, Frey's impression of him had changed several times.

In the past, although she was optimistic about Herbert's talent, she felt that he still needed a long time to grow and she could protect him for a long time.

But now, after seeing Herbert finally kill the boar, she realized she was wrong.

He does need time to grow up, but that time will definitely not be long.

Just as Freme was looking at the hero she had chosen with satisfaction, Herbert also came to Fao.

He handed the sword, which had been mostly burned and melted by the power of the scorching sun, to Faol's hands and said softly:

"Thank you for your sword..."

"hero."
