Everything began to flow.

Liens's figure, like a streak of light, passed through Earl Bard's body.

Earl Bard only saw a very fast longsword flash past, and then he felt a chill at his neck, followed by his perspective beginning to shift, and the surrounding things becoming increasingly high.

Looking at his body that had not yet fallen, Earl Bard, in his dying moments, had already realized what had happened.

He controlled the elements to ignite a regenerating orange-red flame at the severed point to seal the wound, wanting to prolong his life for a moment.

But just as flames always have a day when they extinguish, an Extraordinary One is, in essence, merely a person who pursues the extraordinary and possesses special means; he is a knight and does not have the ability to regenerate after decapitation.

"Bang"

"In the end, I still couldn't protect the family…"

His head fell to the ground, the flames gradually extinguished, and feeling his consciousness gradually dissipating, Earl Bard regretfully thought to himself, then slowly closed his eyes.

Although there was some unwillingness in his heart, he had already done his best. He just didn't know what fate the Glenbagen Family would face after his death.

"Sigh…"

A sigh from the soul.

At the same time, far away in a special treasure vault of the Glenbagen Family, a unique magical item glowed with faint light, then quickly faded.

Immediately after, many Dark Guards felt as if some restraint had been lifted from their bodies, but the current situation on the battlefield did not allow them to think further; they could only focus on fighting the numerous Rebel Army members around them, or on preserving their lives.

On the battlefield, both sides, whether the Rebel Army or the Inner City soldiers, were more or less shining with elemental light.

The Inner City soldiers' light was more varied, while the Rebel Army was enveloped only in a single yellow light.

This was "Divine Armor Art," which could significantly enhance a soldier's defensive capabilities and slightly improve their physical attributes.

It was precisely because of the existence of this divine art, coupled with the many divine envoys on the Rebel Army's side, that they were able to extend the divine art's coverage to more people.

Relying on the divine art and the vast numerical disparity, when the riot began, the Rebel Army was able to push the Inner City forces back to defend the Inner City, and even almost break through it, before they could react in time.

If Earl Bard had not intervened in time, the Inner City would probably have been breached long ago, and perhaps the subsequent stalemate would not have formed.

"Clang!"

Ben, wearing his yellow armor, held his sword to block an attack from the instructor who had once taught him swordsmanship.

Then he swung his sword horizontally, and the two-handed longsword in his hand turned into a silver light, slashing towards Leinajin in front of him, but Leinajin, who had anticipated it, retreated and dodged.

Next, he saw Leinajin charging towards him again at an extremely fast speed, the longsword in Leinajin's hand striking like water that had been squeezed for a long time and then gushed out rapidly.

Ben hurriedly withdrew his sword, attempting to block the attack horizontally, but that sword was faster than he expected, directly breaking through his defensive longsword and striking his abdomen.

"Hm?"

Ben endured the pain of the longsword piercing his abdomen, swung his sword horizontally, and slashed towards Leinajin.

Leinajin retracted his sword, dodged Ben's diagonal slash, and prepared to attack Ben again, but in the next instant, he instantly retreated away from his previous position.

Just as Leinajin retreated, several longswords, from different directions, either slashed or stabbed at his previous location.

If he had remained there, he probably wouldn't have been able to block such an attack.

"Are you alright?"

Gars came to Ben's side, asking about Ben's condition, but his gaze remained sternly fixed on Leinajin not far away.

"I'm fine. The divine art's defense is very strong. I was just stabbed once; the wound is small and didn't hit any vital points."

"However, should I say it's worthy of being the instructor? We were just slightly uncoordinated, and he seized the opportunity. What powerful swordsmanship."

Ben shook his head, indicating he was fine, then sighed with emotion.

Ben naturally knew that he alone was no match for Leinajin, so from the start, he, Gars, and several other knights teamed up against Leinajin.

But even so, they merely used their numerical advantage to slightly suppress the opponent's offensive.

"Instructor? I am not worthy of being your instructor, leader of the Rebel Army."

Hearing Ben's words, Leinajin said coldly.

After speaking, he launched another attack, and Ben and the others raised their swords to meet it, the few of them once again falling into a tangled fight.

On the other side of the battlefield, seeing that Ben was fine, Tang also abandoned the idea of using "Shadow Escape" to teleport over and rescue him, and focused on dealing with the several mages in front of him.

Relying on the peculiar nature of Shadow Realm Magic, even when facing several mages of the same level, Tang could easily hold them off, and even occasionally provide support to others.

Under the moonlight, Tang instantly plunged into the shadows, dodging countless ice shards flying from the magical array in the air, then emerged from the shadow behind the mage who had just cast a spell.

And the moment his body left the shadow, the shadow beneath that mage instantly mutated into a thick, black spike, piercing directly towards the mage.

Fortunately, the mage himself was prepared and cast a shield to block the attack.

Tang was not discouraged, and like a gentleman, he bowed slightly to the mage, as if apologizing for the previous attack, and then instantly disappeared again.

"The rumored Shadow Realm Magic is indeed troublesome. Have you thought of any way to deal with Liens?"

The male mage looked at Tang, who had disappeared again, his brows furrowing tightly, and asked his companions beside him.

"Shadow Realm Magic is special because it can connect to the eerie Shadow Realm through shadows. Our magic cannot affect the Shadow Realm, so it's naturally difficult to harm Liens."

"I just tried it; simple illumination cannot dispel shadows affected by Shadow Realm Magic. It can only be dispelled after the magic's effect disappears."

"This means that to restrict his movement, we need to dispel the surrounding shadows before he uses magic to affect them."

"If the surroundings were an open environment, achieving this wouldn't be difficult, but the situation here… is a bit troublesome."

The male mage's companions looked at the collapsed houses and various debris around them, a bitter smile on their faces.

Illumination spells can gather light elements into dazzling light clusters, but here, there is debris everywhere, and using illumination spells would only create more displacement points for the opponent.

Now, unless someone can cast large-scale light magic to completely dispel all surrounding shadows, or enclose this area to form a lightless environment,

Otherwise, it would be truly difficult to deal with Tang, who can use the Shadow Realm for displacement.

Just as Tang continued his efforts, keeping the attention of those mages so they couldn't use magic to support others, a light appeared.

That light was like a sharp sword piercing the night, dispelling all the surrounding darkness. Even the shadows under Tang's feet, affected by Shadow Realm Magic, began to tremble, seemingly unable to hold on much longer.

This sudden situation startled Tang, who immediately hid in the Shadow Realm, moving through it to a place further away where shadows existed.
