Chapter 59: Fight to the End

Chapter 59: Fight to the End
The leader of the half-beast people, Gnesun, was confident and did not instruct the soldiers to halt their march towards the town of Beste, as he knew that the half-beast people primarily relied on warfare for survival, and the destruction of their camp had little impact on them. As long as they could capture Beste, there would be numerous warehouses filled with all sorts of supplies... After seizing the resources in Beste, they would retreat to the Misty Mountains to hide and continue their development covertly. By then, with capable subordinates and weapons, Gnesun would have the power to unify the half-beast tribes within the Misty Mountains.
As the battle behind him grew louder, Grenisen turned around and saw a human knight wielding a shield, pounding his sword and breaking through layers of resistance, cutting a bloody path through the half-orcs, charging towards him.
Fortunately, there were not many half-orc archers to begin with, and the archers on the surrounding watchtowers had already been eliminated by Gilsis. Otherwise, if there were in an open field, with arrows raining down, even Sisi would not dare to charge towards the powerful orcs. Sisi advanced while fighting, but the half-orcs continued to gather, surrounding Sisi with dozens of long spears. Wherever Sisi's sword light went, orc spears snapped and broke, with casualties piling up.
On the other side, Gao and Nino, along with a group of prisoners, held torches high and set everything they saw on fire. In a blink of an eye, they ignited seven or eight fires in the half-orc camp before rushing out and reuniting with César.
Daryl saw several flares shooting up into the sky from the half-orc camp while he was on the city wall. He realized that someone was causing trouble in the enemy camp and quickly encouraged everyone to hold their ground. He also ordered the assembly of all knights and cavalry in the town, ready to charge and respond to the half-orcs alongside Xavier and others.
In addition to the more than 500 guards in the town of Bellsford, there are also over 1,000 civilians. Everyone knows that if this city is breached, no one will survive. Therefore, not only young and able-bodied men stand up to defend the city, but also the elderly, women, and children do what they can to help lighten the burden of the guards.
Under Nelson's signal, two tall and strong guards on horseback, rode towards Ceci.
As the opponent charged, Ceci's eyes narrowed into slits, with a glint of coldness in the gaps. His feet took small steps as he continued to back away, keeping his body facing the incoming horse. However, he consciously slightly tilted his body, lowering his center of gravity...
Bang!!!
A heavy boom echoed through the air as the two figures collided, and suddenly, Xisi saw the bizarrely shaped long knife of the opponent, accompanied by a chilling glimmer, rushing towards her. In that brief moment, she swiftly lifted her shield and positioned it in front of her head!
These two half-orc guards were originally tough, and with the help of the running wolf, their strength became even more fierce. Suddenly, Cissi's shield in his hand flashed white light, instantly blinding their eyes. Taking advantage of the situation, Cissi quickly twisted his body and leaned against the wolf passing by his side, even feeling the friction between the wolf's fur and his armor. Then, Cissi let out a loud roar and swung his entire body with force towards one of them!
A howl, the leftmost wolf rider felt his ride stumble and crash down!
The might of Xisi's sword directly severed the leg of a charging wolf... But Xisi's wooden armor crumbled as another wolf rider's axe struck him. Though it didn't inflict substantial damage on Xisi, he couldn't relax. He turned, leaped, and rushed forward with his sword in hand!
The wolf cavalry who fell down just climbed up and saw a white light above his head. Xi Sai's long sword had already arrived! The horseman half-orc hurriedly raised his long knife, with a clang sound, the blade blocked the long sword, but the tremendous force made the half-orc's legs go soft. Just then, the half-orc finally couldn't get up, and knelt on one knee. Xi Sai's shield in his left hand struck fiercely, smashing the half-orc away, and after rolling on the ground for a few rounds, he had barely any breath left.
At this moment, there was a sound of wind behind him, and Wester quickly turned around to see a black shadow already rushing towards him!
It was another Wolf Cavalry who had arrived, with the fierce and sinister appearance of a half-orc and the snarling face of a wolf, and the sharp blade of the half-orc's axe was already raised, hovering above Wester's head, about to strike down!
Westley desperately lifts his shield to block, and with a loud bang, the opponent's axe strikes against the shield. In that instant, the shield bursts forth with a burst of silver light!
The axe shattered the silver shadow that appeared on the shield, and the force was reduced by more than half. The subsequent force was easily blocked by Cesar. Cesar's long sword then stabbed into the mouth of the alpha wolf and promptly ended its life. The alpha wolf, in pain, immediately flipped the half-orc over on the ground. Cesar quickly caught up, preparing to deliver a final blow to the fallen half-orc.
Nielsen rode on his huge war wolf and charged towards Sissy at lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, Sissy saw that it was a short-handle wolf-toothed club, with a wooden handle and one end large and the other end pointed. The larger end was covered with iron sheets and embedded with countless sharp iron nails, making it the most handy weapon for cavalry combat.
Xisi immediately activated his slow aura, then turned his sword in the opposite direction to meet the Wolf's Tooth Club... The clash of gold and iron resonated as Xisi's body was fiercely struck by this immense force, causing him to constantly step back to alleviate the impact, until he finally stood firm several meters away.
Nielsen stared at his mount, his expression not one of triumph, but rather surprise as he examined his wolf-toothed club. Two of the teeth had vanished, leaving finger-sized gaps! This discovery left the half-orc chieftain feeling somewhat astonished; he was well aware of his own strength and had just used his full force. He had expected to crush his opponent's skull with a single strike, but had not anticipated such resistance - especially considering he had even harnessed the power of his mount!
"Not bad, human knight." Nielsen glanced coldly at the servant who had been knocked unconscious and just regained consciousness on the ground. "Get up, you useless waste! You have disgraced us!"
At this moment, all attention on the battlefield was focused on the fight between Sisyphus and the powerful orc.
"You have some strength to withstand my full blow," the orc chieftain looked up and glanced at Sisyphus, with a slight hint of murderous intent disappearing from his brows, but soon the fierceness returned, "Your skull will be the first trophy of the world conqueror."
The smell of blood was heavy in the air on the battlefield, as Xise and Nielsen stood facing each other amidst countless corpses.
All the fighting around them ceased, both the human defenders and the half-orc warriors stopped their battle. An oppressive silence enveloped the battlefield, with countless eyes fixed on the two individuals in confrontation. Everyone, whether human, dwarf, or half-orc, understood that this momentous occasion would determine the outcome of the battle.
Nielsen once again urged the mount to launch a fierce attack towards Sisay. This time, Sisay didn't directly confront it, but instead leaped forward! With a clean and swift jump, we could hear a swoosh as the Wolf Tooth Club grazed Shaya's head. Sisay was midair, extending his right hand with a long sword... With a muffled sound, Sisay managed to dodge the Wolf Tooth Club, but was directly hit by the wolf. However, the long sword ruthlessly pierced into the wolf's shoulder and neck!
With a thud, the alpha wolf let out a mournful cry, as Xisi was once again sent flying by the impact. However, this time he was prepared, and he stomped heavily on the ground as he landed, retreating a few steps. A deep mark was left on the ground as he barely managed to stand. Xisi spat out a little bit of blood, his hand pressed firmly against the spot where he was struck, desperately gasping for breath.
At the same time, the neck of the wolf was pierced directly by Cecil's longsword, and it ran forward a few steps before screaming and falling over. In the midst of rushing, Nelson suddenly kicked his legs and jumped off his mount, but his landing posture was a bit awkward, and he rolled on the ground before standing up.
As soon as he lost his balance, Xisi rushed over, his long sword in hand, piercing towards his neck like a white silk thread! This strong orc, experienced in countless battles, remained calm and swiftly drew a short axe from his waist to block it...
That short axe is sharp and shimmering, and a burst of bloody aura bursts out from the axe! The short axe collided with the long sword with a bang, and there was a clang...
Immediately, Sisay felt a tremendous shock in his arm! He saw half of the metal fly into the sky, and then it fell to the ground with a thud. The expression on the half-orc leader's face, which had been calm, suddenly changed! It turned out that Sisay's long sword not only shattered the short axe, but also narrowly missed cutting his neck, with a tiny bead of blood oozing out from the skin!
Nielsen quickly dodged to the side after feeling the pain, with all his muscles tensed up. He exerted all the strength he had in this charge, and when he landed, the pain in his neck almost made him black out. Fortunately, he reached out and felt that the wound wasn't too deep, but in his hand...
That sharp short axe, however, is now left with only a handle, and the blade is embedded upside down in the nearby ground. And the knight in front of me still holds a standard long sword in his hand — which is still intact!
After a few seconds of brief pause, Cesar suddenly raised his hand, and a strong white light enveloped him. The half-orcs around him instinctively closed their eyes upon seeing the light, and their skin made a sizzling sound due to the burning pain. Cesar took a deep breath and seized the opportunity to charge forward. The longsword in his hand gleamed with white light as he rushed towards his enemies, aiming to deliver a fatal blow while he had the chance.
Xi Ce rushed back with a long sword, and when he stood in front of Gennisen, Gennisen finally regained his senses. He shouted loudly, waved his arms, and a bloody light burst forth from his wolf-toothed club. This time, he exerted all his strength and pushed his power to its limit. The bloody aura almost materialized on the club, extending about a foot away. Clearly, he had reached the peak of his strength.
The Wolf Fang Club turned into a dark shadow and fiercely rolled over. I saw Gennison roaring loudly, swinging the club one by one, and Wesise in this airtight Wolf Fang Club could only raise his shield to block left and right, occasionally hearing the muffled sound of the Wolf Fang Club hitting the shield.
Finally unable to withstand the onslaught like a tide, Grenison unleashed all his spear skills. Westley was hit a few more times, but his figure remained firm and there was no sign of him falling down.
Ganison's heart was both anxious and shocked, and he was also angry. He had never encountered such an opponent in his life. Even though he took so many hits from himself, he seemed completely unaffected. If it were himself, he wouldn't be able to withstand two hits before collapsing. But this human showed no signs of serious injury.
Finally, with a clang, Gnisson swiftly turned, gripping his wolf-toothed club tightly in both hands, and leapt high into the air, preparing for a skull-shattering blow. This move was originally meant to be a powerful attack using the height and speed of his mount, but at this moment Gnisson could no longer bother with such considerations. He simply wished to smash this knight's head like a broken watermelon.
As Nilsen leapt into the air, Xi Si's eyes widened suddenly, a glint of surprise flashing across them. Seizing the opportunity without hesitation, Xi Si countered with the move "Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust." At the same time, Nilsen's wolf tooth club whistled through the air, aiming for Xi Si's head. In a crucial moment, Xi Si activated the Slow Motion Halo, making a desperate effort to avoid the strike and evade the vital area...
After a loud noise, the two figures on the battlefield finally came to a halt, with one person standing and the other kneeling. The white flames continued to burn on the person kneeling, while the person standing felt a sharp pain and was too weak to tighten their grip on the shield.
