Chapter 42: The Power of the Magic Swordsman

  About an hour later, a thorny flower team of more than 2,000 people slowly came over, and the leader was a golden knight. They slowly entered the valley where Wu Lingfeng was ambushing.

  "Kill!!" Wu Lingfeng said calmly.

  "Kill!"

  "Kill!"

  "Kill!"

  All the soldiers shouted loudly and rushed down from the top of the valley, the soldiers holding bows and arrows began to shoot, a large number of arrows poured down like rain, shooting down a large number of enemy troops.

  "What men! All soldiers, raise your shields to block the arrows, gather together, don't disperse...” The leader of the Golden Knights, Thorn Flower, was suddenly shocked and pale, but relying on his own strength, he dodged a large number of arrows and began to organize the soldiers for a counterattack.

  "Go ahead..." Wu Lingfeng said to Sherry, he also wanted to see how far the magical powers of a magic user could reach.

  Sherry nodded, clasped her hands together, and began to chant: "The guardian of majesty, the horn of order, in the midst of chaos, riding on the void below, the will of light, under the thunderbolt of a myriad judgments, the hymn of the gates of heaven, punishment——the Ten-Word Judgment of Light!!"

  As Sherry sang, a large amount of white mist began to flicker around her body, and in the palms of her hands, a cross burning with white flames gradually appeared, surrounded by three white chains floating in the air...

  When Shirley finished singing, the flame lock chain cross flew out of her hand and gradually grew larger, striking the golden knight in an instant. Three white chains bound him instantly, a huge cross was inserted into the ground, and white flames began to burn on him...

  "Damn mage! Ah...... How detestable......"

  The Golden Knight burst out all his strength to break free from the shackles on his body, with his fighting spirit fully ignited. However, he couldn't move an inch and had already been sentenced to death!

  The voice of the Golden Knight gradually weakened, and although the white flame was burning fiercely, it did not cause much damage to his physical body. Only a faint green light shadow could be seen struggling on top of his head, and the shape of the light shadow was gradually weakening.

  Wu Lingfeng watched the scene in shock, swallowing hard, and indeed, the power of the demon master was not ordinary. The golden knight was instantly defeated, death was only a matter of time, even invincibility was useless, that flame should be burning his soul.

  At this time, Wu Lingfeng felt that he was really lucky. He had to rely on the power of the magic guide to be able to escape, and even if he wanted to run away, it would still be a problem. Thanks to the system's instant magic release, otherwise, he might not have been able to counterattack against the magic guide.

  "Alright, he's done for. The power of flesh and gold is still there, but his soul is gone. Are you satisfied, my master?" Sherry said to Wu Linfeng with a sigh. Alas, if only there was a Silver Knight guarding by her side back then, she wouldn't have been caught... It's really a pity that despite having such great power, he was still controlled by others...

  Wu Lingfeng nodded and said: "It's not over yet, there are still resisting soldiers..."

  Sherry nodded, and began to chant once more: "The binding law of restraint, the thorn of order, amidst chaos, entwining ten thousand, is the whip, is the severity, the earth's wrathful sacrifice, imprisonment——the bundle of light's thorny hedge!!"

  The singing ended, and a huge white seven-pointed star magic array appeared under the feet of the thorny flower empire soldiers. A large number of white light beams drilled out from underground, wrapping around the Thorny Flower Empire's soldiers one by one. In an instant, they lost their combat power, and hundreds of soldiers were instantly bound.

  With the help of these beams, Wu Lingfeng's soldiers quickly ended the enemy's life. The sheep waiting to be slaughtered, isn't it easy to kill?

  Having seen this, Wu Lingfeng finally understood why the status of mages was so high in this world. On the battlefield, they were simply a huge cheat code. The strength of a single mage could completely turn the tide of battle into a one-sided rhythm.

  "Hmm..."

  "Alright, I've already consumed more than half of my magical energy. Yesterday, I split my soul power and didn't dare to use up all my magic at once, but now the situation is already victorious, Master should be satisfied, right?"

  Wu Lingfeng nodded and said, "Mm, it's fine, let's just leave it at that."

  "Surrender and you will not be killed..."

  Wu Lingfeng shouted loudly, and the soldiers under his command also followed suit. All the enemies threw away their weapons and surrendered. The main general was already like that, lying motionless on the ground. What were they fighting for? It would be a futile death.

  Although he is a foreigner, Wu Lingfeng also doesn't want to kill too many people. He can't be like Bai Qi who was notorious for his brutal killings. Killing wildly isn't good, fighting is necessary but killing isn't his mission.

  Walking up to the Golden Knight who had fainted on the ground, Wu Lin Feng ended his life in an instant. The system also prompted him that he had leveled up to 13 and obtained a QP point, but no equipment dropped. It seemed that equipment drop was also based on luck, not all Golden Knights or Mages would drop equipment, it depended on probability.

  With this QP point, Wu Lin Feng still chose to strengthen his MP recovery, now his MP recovery rate is 6220/day, and he recovers approximately 4.3 MP per minute, which is a significant improvement from before.

  Wu Lingfeng believed that if he continued to improve himself, one day his magic would be endless and inexhaustible, but for now it was still a bit early.

  "Burn all the bodies of our enemies, bury our own people in a safe place, and then report back to me with the list. If the Empire doesn't provide compensation, I'll take out the money we obtained after capturing the city and distribute it among you. Remember, as long as you work hard under my command, I won't let you die in vain."

  I may not be able to say anything nice, but I'm being very realistic. I won't embezzle your money or let you die in vain. I used to be a low-ranking soldier and have never been a general, but I understand that you are on the most dangerous front line, so I will make sure to provide all the benefits that I can without owing you anything.

  "Alright, let's tidy up and head back to the city..."

  Wu Lingfeng said, directing his soldiers to start clearing the battlefield. Next, they would begin their counterattack on Mingji City.

  There is no battlefield where no one dies, Wu Lingfeng can only do his best to prepare and minimize the number of deaths. He hasn't truly immersed himself in this world yet, after all, he lived for over a decade in his previous life, but here, it's been less than a month, and he can't fully commit just yet.

  So he was even more careful to minimize casualties, because this is also a living life. Since the war cannot be avoided, we can only do our best. He is not a saint, he is a commander-in-chief, what he wants is victory, and only victory can protect more people from coming alive, those thorny flower soldiers can only blame their bad luck.
