Lord Wizard

Chapter 17 Power Feedback

"Young Master, we should retreat for now..."

"Go quickly!"

After Lin Meng finished speaking, he immediately drew his sword to help Noah restrain Henry and prevent Noah from being in danger.

Although he was just a newly promoted knight, his speed advantage allowed him to perform as well as a mid-level knight. Under his interference, the battle between the three was temporarily at a stalemate!

Within ten minutes, more and more soldiers arrived from all directions after hearing the news, and under Duncan's call, they surrounded Lin Meng and his group. In an instant, both the Wildebeest Knights and the Silver Knights were in a precarious situation.

Just then, the flag bearing the coat of arms of the George family at the Viscount's mansion fell, and the flag belonging to the Bell family rose into the air.

Seeing this, Lin Meng shouted, "Viscount George is dead, Denor Castle has fallen, are you going to attack your new lord?!"

At this shout, the soldiers who were originally surrounding and attacking the Wildebeest Knights and the Silver Knights suddenly panicked. Especially when they saw the Bell family's banner flying on the high building of the lord's mansion, they hesitated and stopped in their tracks.

Sensing these changes, Lin Mengfu felt a surge of inspiration and focused his mind on the fragments of the spiritually manifested world. On the map formed by the flowing light, a new territory had expanded beside Thorn Town, which was the territory of Ubabo.

On the map of Ubabo, the same glow that was present in Thorntown back then was emanating.

"I need strength to defeat Henry."

Lin Meng focused his mind on the white glowing light on the map, guiding this energy to permeate his body.

During this infiltration, he clearly felt his power rising rapidly!

2.2!

2.4!

2.6!

2.9!

His strength attribute remained at 2.9 for a moment before the strength attribute belonging to the Great Knight realm was suddenly shattered.

A powerful force, seemingly not belonging to this body, surged from every cell of Lin Meng's body, spreading and expanding outwards like a volcano about to erupt.

This power was so strong that Lin Meng had no control over it. At this moment, all he wanted to do was unleash this immense force!

And as a target for venting...

Lin Meng looked at Henry, who was suppressing Noah and trying to defeat him as quickly as possible.

His blood and qi surged, and a violent force traveled from his legs to his cervical spine, then flowed into his arms, transforming into a sword that cleaved through space, and was unleashed with a thunderous roar.

"Bang!"

The friction between the sword's edge and the air created a ripple visible to the naked eye.

"What?"

Henry's expression changed drastically when he saw Lin Meng suddenly attack. He clenched his sword and, while repelling Noah, instantly blocked in front of him!

The instant he parried with his sword, an unprecedented power erupted from the blade along with Lin Meng's strike. Even though he was known as the Violent Bear, he was still shaken by this terrifying power, causing his tiger's mouth to split open and blood to spurt out. The greatsword in his hand was sent flying back by Lin Meng's strike, slamming heavily into his chest.

"Bang!"

"Snap!"

The greatsword struck the armor, sending Henry flying through the air with a sharp crack as his sternum broke.

"Pfft!"

Henry, who had crashed into the outer wall of the lord's mansion, coughed up a mouthful of blood, already seriously injured.

"How is this possible!? Your power!?"

Henry stared at Lin Meng in disbelief, as if he were looking at a monster.

Lin Meng, who unleashed the sword strike, fared no better. His longsword shattered under the impact of the two forces, his body turned a sickly red, and the tendons in his hands were torn and strained by the sword strike.

Lin Meng knew this was a sign of overexertion beyond the body's limits; the reddened skin was blood seeping from the pores.

"Lord Leylin."

Noah, who had just been forced back, was equally incredulous at what he was seeing. How astonishing that a knight who had only recently broken through could unleash a sword strike no less powerful than that of a Grand Knight.

However, seeing Lin Meng's miserable state, he realized that such a secret technique must come at a high price, but even so, they were still very envious.

Take advantage of his illness to kill him.

Seeing Henry severely injured, Noah charged forward, and Lin Meng, also wanting to unleash this power, launched a fierce and relentless offensive.

"Young Master, the entire George family has been wiped out."

Eileen's voice came from the direction of the lord's manor.

Instantly, Lin Meng felt a cool breeze seep into his body through the earth, quickly restoring his depleted energy and injuries.

This is a recovery buff that can only be generated when the player's territory is within their own territory.

With this boost, Lin Meng's attacks became even more ferocious, seemingly oblivious to the concept of stamina expenditure.

As Henry barely managed to block Noah's sword, he was too late to defend against Lin Meng's pursuit.

The sword flashed.

Lin Meng's sword slashed fiercely into Henry's shoulder. Even though he was wearing a full suit of armor, the sword still tore half of his body apart amidst the sparks.

"what!"

Henry let out a painful scream, and taking advantage of the opportunity, Noah's longsword pierced straight through his chest in an instant.

"laugh!"

A blood-stained blade emerged from behind Henry.

Henry stared intently at Lin Meng and Noah, and managed to open his mouth with difficulty: "The Earl... will... avenge me..."

After saying this, he lowered his head and died on the spot.

"call!"

As he watched Henry die, Lin Meng let out a long sigh of relief.

Although his strength and agility have reached the level of a Grand Knight, his physique has not yet broken through, so he cannot fully exert the power of a Grand Knight. In addition, he has only been in the wizarding world for a short time, and his swordsmanship is not yet proficient. If it weren't for Noah's assistance, he might not have been able to kill a peak knight like Henry.

Lin Meng breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Chief of the Guard Duncan, who was still putting up a stubborn resistance.

The chief guard was the nobleman's closest subordinate and had almost no chance of being recruited, so he naturally didn't waste any words and simply waved his hand.

Immediately, Noah, Eileen, and the others launched a simultaneous attack on Duncan.

Despite fighting valiantly and displaying his knightly prowess, Duncan, who was only a mid-level knight, was unable to create a miracle under the combined attack of several knights. He was quickly killed by Noah with a single sword strike.

Seeing that some soldiers were still rushing out from other parts of the castle, Lin Meng gave another order: "Suppress them. Those who surrender will not be killed. Also, hang Viscount George's body high on the city gate, seize important warehouses, armories, stables and other important facilities, and have the cavalry announce in the streets that Viscount George is dead and that Denor Castle has been breached by us."

"As you wish, Lord Leylin."

Noah and Gerald bowed slightly and quickly led their men to carry out the orders.

The sporadic fighting continued until dawn before gradually subsiding.

When the sun rose again, Denor Castle, the central town of the Ubabo territory, had changed hands and welcomed its new ruler—Baron Leylin Bell of Thorntown.
