Lu Yuan immediately accepted the mission without hesitation. This mission was very worthwhile for him!
With that, he could preserve the integrity of his Knight Legion!
If his Abyss Knight Corps was destroyed in the battle, then it would not be fun!
Lu Yuan quickly said to the City Lord, “I will do my best to ensure the safety of Princess Kate and all the residents!”
“Okay…” the City Lord looked at Lu Yuan and nodded with satisfaction.
Then, Lu Yuan also left the City Lord’s Mansion.
After Lu Yuan left, the City Lord immediately took out the Holy Light armor he wore when he was young and placed it in a mysterious magic array!
And the City Lord directly took out a golden lance in another mysterious magic array and placed it together with the Holy Light armor!
Then, the City Lord slowly took out pieces of equipment from the mysterious magic array!
Meanwhile, in Jinyao City, the residents were hoarding food one after another. The number of knights patrolling on the streets was several times more than usual. A few Holy Knights stood on the city wall all day long!
They were guarding against Engels’ sudden arrival!
The entire Jinyao City was shrouded in an atmosphere of imminent war!
On this day, a huge magic array slowly rose in Jinyao City. Then, the magic array lowered a protective barrier to envelop the entire Jinyao City!
The protective barrier contained endless holy light energy!
Lu Yuan had been frantically doing small missions to level up in the city for the past few days. Now that he was unable to leave the city, he could only do these complicated small missions to level up.
Lu Yuan basically did not rest and continued to level up!
Very quickly, his level rose to level 35!
Right at this moment, powerful energy bombarded the protective barrier above Jinyao City!
Following that, a large group of Demon Army entered the territory of the Jinyao City from all directions!
The great battle had begun!
The endless Demon Army was like a swarm of locusts, crazily pouring into the territory of Jinyao City. They were densely packed and incomparably terrifying!
At each city gate, more than seven demon leaders were leading the team. In other words, each Holy Knight had to face more than seven Holy Knights!
Lu Yuan was shocked. No wonder Jinyao City was destroyed in this big battle!
Lu Yuan immediately rode on his little white horse and rushed to his Abyss Knight Corps!
In Lu Yuan’s memory from his previous life, the four Holy Knights of Jinyao City were all killed in this battle! Including the City Lord and the princess, none of them were spared!
Therefore, Lu Yuan had to protect his Abyss Knight Corps. This Knight Corps was different from the Golden-armored Guards of Amber City!
He was only qualified to deploy the Golden-armored Guards of Amber City, but they would not completely listen to him. In the end, the Royal Guards of Amber City would only listen to the royal family of Amber City!
However, the Abyss Knight Corps was different. As long as the Jinyao City was gone, the Abyss Knight Corps would be completely under his control!
They would truly belong to him!
At the city gate, every Holy Knight left the city to fight. If not for the energy shield protecting the Jinyao City, it would have been destroyed by the terrifying energy released by the battle between the Holy Knights and the demon leaders!
At this time, a personal guard of the City Lord ran to Lu Yuan and said, “General Lu Yuan! The princess and all the ordinary residents have gathered at the north gate!”
“Please escort them to the Desert of Death with the Abyss Knights!”
“Jack the Holy Knight has stalled a few demon leaders. Please act as soon as possible!”
After saying that, the knight left.
Lu Yuan said to the tens of thousands of knights in front of him, “A few days ago, I received a special mission from the City Lord. That is to escort all the residents who do not have the ability to fight into the Desert of Death!”
“This mission is very difficult. Even a Jinyao Knight would find it difficult to survive in the Desert of Death! Not to mention that we have to escort a bunch of civilians!”
“You need to listen to my orders completely in the Desert of Death. I can guarantee your safety!”
“Abyss Knight! Let’s go!” Lu Yuan raised his lance high, followed by tens of thousands of Jinyao Knights running forward. Soon, Lu Yuan arrived at the north gate!
Princess Kate and the residents were already waiting for Lu Yuan’s arrival!
Lu Yuan said, “Later, everyone needs to listen to my orders completely! Otherwise, your little move will kill everyone!”
“Open the city gate!” Lu Yuan shouted.
The two city gate Guard Knights slowly opened the city gate. Lu Yuan led the Knight-errant Knights to the front while the other knights protected the residents!
When they went out of the city, they saw corpses, broken limbs, and even the ground was dyed red with blood!
Not far away, the Jinyao Knights and the demons were still fighting. Lu Yuan ordered them to go around the battlefield!
Lu Yuan and the others slowly went around the battlefield. At this time, a demon leader broke through the obstruction of the Holy Knight, Jack, and headed straight for Lu Yuan and the others!
His target was Princess Kate!
“D*mn it! Why didn’t Jack stop him?!” Lu Yuan cursed.
Facing the demon leader, if there were only Lu Yuan and the others were all knights, they would not be afraid. However, the princess and many residents were among them. If the demon leader wanted to kill the princess or take the princess away, Lu Yuan and the knights would have a hard time dealing with them.
“Come on!” Lu Yuan immediately used the Frost Heart!
He immediately raised his level to level 40. At this moment, Lu Yuan’s HP bar was continuously decreasing!
Lu Yuan immediately equipped himself with the orange Frost Lance!
When Lu Yuan was equipped with the Frost Lance, a terrifying low temperature instantly appeared. Even the Jinyao Knights who were wearing Holy Light armor felt a little cold! Streams of cold air were continuously emitted from Lu Yuan’s lance!
The demon leader immediately sensed Lu Yuan’s threat and directly launched an attack on Lu Yuan!
A long blade appeared in his hand, with a terrifying black mist wrapped around it!
“Just in time! I also want to test my level-40 strength!” Lu Yuan directly jumped up and then directly used the skill of Holy Lance to support the Frost Lance!
Lu Yuan instantly arrived in front of the demon leader, and the lance directly penetrated the body of the demon leader!
Lu Yuan hurriedly stopped the skill of Frost Heart, or else, if he killed the demon leader, he would also die later!
Lu Yuan was shocked in his heart, this Frost Heart was indeed extremely terrifying. He actually felt that his HP bar of this level 40 was decreasing at a decent speed!
Lu Yuan estimated in his heart that the strength of the demon leader was around level 40, while the strength of the Holy Knight was around level 50. Engels should be at level 60, or even higher!
When the knights saw that Lu Yuan could actually kill the demon leader in one hit, they all opened their mouths and said, “General Lu Yuan, you have become a Holy Knight?”
At this moment, even the princess in the crowd was looking at Lu Yuan. If Jinyao City could have one more Holy Knight, then the odds of winning would be higher!
