Answer the People's Expectations! Accept Their Cheers!
And there it was!
A human squad stormed in from outside the battlefield at incredible speed, and all the Grey Dwarf soldiers blocking their way were unable to pose any effective obstacle.
Those at the forefront.
It was a figure clad in gray armor, followed closely by his daughter Yaluer, and the young men he had brought with him earlier.
"Everyone, come behind me! Don't panic!" The middle-aged clan leader wasn't sure what was happening, but he vaguely sensed that the seemingly hopeless situation had turned into a glimmer of hope.
now.
The Grey Dwarf commander-in-chief, his beard throbbing with rage, roared at the surrounding villainous soldiers, "You idiots! You can't even stop people!"
"Oron, slaughter all those humans!"
A fully armed Grey Dwarf Warrior wearing a helmet immediately stepped out from the side and led a small squad of Grey Dwarf soldiers to charge in the direction where Tang Zheng was.
Under the watchful eye of the Grey Dwarf Commander-in-Chief.
The two sides clashed quickly on the chaotic battlefield, but the scene that was expected—the human in gray armor being smashed away by Oron —did not occur.
On the contrary, at the moment of contact between the two sides!
Oron was actually cleaved in two by the figure in gray armor with a single sword strike.
"How is this possible?!"
Upon witnessing this scene, the Chief of the Grey Dwarf froze on the spot, speechless with disbelief.
Oron was the strongest Grey Dwarf Warrior in the entire legion, yet he couldn't even withstand a single blow from the opponent. How could there be such a powerful being among humans?
The situation on the battlefield is becoming increasingly chaotic!
Wherever the gray-armored figure led the human squad, all that remained were the cleaved bodies of Grey Dwarf soldiers and splattered bits of flesh and blood.
Soon!
This human squad actually fought their way from the outermost edge into the inner area and joined up with the other group of humans.
Meanwhile, on the human side...
Upon seeing the gray-armored figure emerging from the pile of Grey Dwarf, the overwhelming stench of blood made the middle-aged clan leader instinctively take a step back in fear.
"Father!" Yaluer gasped for breath, looking at the middle-aged clan chief with an excited expression.
"Yaluer!" The middle-aged chieftain breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing his daughter. He longed to rush over and embrace Yaluer, but he understood the current situation:
"Who is this powerful figure?"
The terrifying strength that the opponent had just displayed had already attracted the attention of the humans. The middle-aged clan leader didn't know why the opponent had appeared with his daughter.
But they also knew that the other party was there to help them!
"Father, we are saved." Yaluer's voice was excited, her bright silver eyes looking at Tang Zheng beside her with burning desire.
Not only Yaluer, but also all the young people on the human side who rushed in were extremely excited.
He simply followed behind Tang Zheng.
Yaluer group finally realized the true power of their human companion, who was about the same age as them.
Rather than saying that they fought their way in from the outside, it would be more accurate to say that they relied entirely on Tang Zheng's strength alone.
"He is..." Yaluer abruptly, her words trailing off.
She suddenly realized that she didn't seem to know the name of the powerful human in front of her. After all, in the valley, the strong didn't need to tell the weak their names.
"Now is not the time for such nonsense."
Tang Zheng glanced at the two of them, raised his Magic Greatsword, turned around, and charged in again.
These Dwarf soldiers are not just enemies, but also valuable experience!
This time!
Without the burden of humans Yaluer, Tang Zheng no longer suppressed his speed. The Magic Greatsword in his hand became a blur, and wherever it passed, Grey Dwarf soldiers turned into a cloud of blood mist.
These Grey Dwarf soldiers were around level seven or eight, or perhaps a little higher.
But for Tang Zheng, it made no difference; he could basically kill them all with a single strike!
"Ah!!"
"Monster!"
"That gray armor belongs to Demon."
Stop him!
"Use bows and arrows!"
"..."
The Grey Dwarf soldiers let out wails and screams of terror.
"Mass Tranquilization!"
As the commander-in-chief of the Grey Dwarf who led the army, he activated his abilities and manipulated his soldiers to surround the enemy.
"Father, we can't let the master be surrounded by the enemy alone." Yaluer noticed the change in the Grey Dwarf soldier immediately and spoke up.
"Those without weapons, retreat! The rest of you, follow me and assist that lord!" the middle-aged clan chief roared immediately.
The humans also began to move.
The previously hopeless situation began to show a glimmer of hope with the appearance of Tang Zheng!
Everyone knew that if they didn't seize this opportunity and use the power of this mysterious expert to completely crush the Grey Dwarf army, they would be doomed.
They may never have such an opportunity again.
If they can defeat this Dwarf army, the human side will have at least ten years to recuperate.
Unarmed?
Then pick up the weapons from the dead Grey Dwarf soldiers.
The hope for the survival of our community is right before our eyes; it's no longer a question of whether we're afraid or whether we should retreat!
Led by the middle-aged chieftain and Yaluer, the humans began to attack the Grey Dwarf soldiers, forming a surging tide that was about to surround Tang Zheng.
A legion of over 5,000 people may not seem like much, but when laid out on a flat surface, the number is actually quite astonishing.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A dense barrage of arrows came from afar, striking Tang Zheng's gray armor with a clanging sound.
Dots of white marks appeared on the surface of the armor.
Tang Zheng merely glanced at them and ignored them. These arrows, without any magical enhancement, couldn't break through his defenses. Even if they did damage his gray armor, he could repair it with Healing Magic.
After all, it's Body Armament.
"I didn't expect to see a command-related professional here. So, this person must be the actual Commander of this army."
Tang Zheng looked into the depths of the Grey Dwarf army, his eyes lighting up.
These Grey Dwarf all had thick beards, covering most of their faces, and at a glance, they all looked pretty much the same.
You can only distinguish them by their appearance, but that's obviously not accurate enough.
Now that the opponent has activated their Commander Class skills, Tang Zhong has nowhere to hide!
Looking around him, he saw Grey Dwarf soldiers, each wearing an iron shield and with fearful eyes, surrounding him.
Tang Zheng's face broke into a bright smile. He raised his Magic Greatsword and swung it fiercely at the vanguard. "Mana Slash - Wind!"
Whoosh!
A crescent-shaped, emerald-green Slash Strike poured down from the Magic Greatsword, transforming into a three-meter-long wind-attribute Slash Strike in mid-air.
Wherever they went!
The Grey Dwarf soldiers in front were wiped out instantly, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
This is an ability that Tang Zheng recently discovered he could use. By combining the Elemental Attribute Conversion ability of the [Mad Wizard] with the class skills of the [Magic Swordsman], he can unleash Slash Strike of four different attributes!
"Ah--"
"Help!!"
The bloody scene froze all the Dwarf soldiers who had surrounded them, and the air was filled with miserable wails and screams once again.
Tang Zheng followed the straight, bloody path he had carved out, charging straight into it and heading towards the Dwarf army's commander-in-chief.
He is a powerhouse in the "Hero" realm!
He must be a powerhouse in the "Hero" realm!
"Why, why is the other person here? Why are they helping humans...?"
Upon seeing the figure in gray armor, the commander-in-chief of the Grey Dwarf slashed out with his sword, killing dozens of Grey Dwarf soldiers, and then collapsed to the ground, almost paralyzed.
The next moment!
The commander-in-chief of the Grey Dwarf shuddered as he saw Tang Zheng charging towards him, and roared almost like a howl, "Stop him! Stop him!"
However!
It wasn't just the Grey Dwarf Commander-in-Chief who was frightened; a large number of Grey Dwarf soldiers were also startled.
Whoosh!
Tang Zheng's figure moved almost without pause, directly arriving in front of the Grey Dwarf Commander-in-Chief.
Pfft! Pfft!
After casually killing two seemingly stronger Grey Dwarf Warrior who were trying to protect the other, he...
Tang Zheng lowered his head, looked at the Grey Dwarf commander-in-chief who was slumped on the ground, staring at him in terror, and smiled slightly, "You're the Commander here, aren't you?"
Due to the full coverage of the armor.
The commander-in-chief of the Grey Dwarf could not see the expression on Tang Zheng's face, but he could clearly hear his calm voice.
"I... you, I..."
The Grey Dwarf commander-in-chief trembled uncontrollably, his voice stammering.
"It seems that's it." Tang Zheng nodded and raised his wrist.
Pfft!
The commander-in-chief of the Grey Dwarf was cleaved in two by a single sword strike.
The air fell silent at that moment.
"The Chief of Staff is dead!!"
"Demon!"
"Monster, run!!"
The terrified cries of the Grey Dwarf soldiers echoed across the battlefield, instantly triggering the collapse of the entire Grey Dwarf army.
Tang Zheng had no intention of letting these Grey Dwarf soldiers go. With a flash, he charged in again.
The humans, not expecting victory to come so quickly and easily, naturally joined in the pursuit of the Grey Dwarf soldiers.
The thick stench of blood permeated the entire battlefield, and the scalding sand was stained red with blood, making it look like a world of red sand from afar.
The corpses of Grey Dwarf or humans lay in pools of blood.
The war is over.
Most of the humans collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, oblivious to the corpses, limbs, and blood on the ground. Each of them wore a look of relief and joy at surviving the ordeal.
A mix of disbelief and other complex emotions filled the hearts of everyone present. Some even slapped themselves from time to time, wondering if they were dreaming.
The mighty Grey Dwarf army has been defeated just like that?
In an instant.
Everyone looked at the figure standing in the pool of blood, clad in gray armor.
Yaluer's silver eyes were filled with adoration when she suddenly roared with all her might, "Gray Armored Knight!!"
Following that roar, the rest of the humans roared back.
"Gray Armored Knight!!"
"Gray Armored Knight!!"
"Gray Armored Knight!!"
"Gray Armored Knight!!"
"..."
The shouts of humanity echoed through the sky.
Tang Zheng was also panting heavily from exhaustion when he suddenly heard the shouts of the humans who had survived in this valley, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Gray Armored Knight? What an awful title." Tang Zheng chuckled and made a sarcastic remark.
Buzz--
Suddenly, the Attribute Panel began to vibrate, and a series of Attribute Panel appeared on it:
"Triggering the conditions for obtaining the profession--"
"Respond to the people's expectations!"
"Accept the cheers of the people!"
"Accept people's admiration!"
"Hero clad in Gray Armor!"
"Only a soaked blade holds the hope for the continuation of the race!"
"You are the Gray Armored Knight!"
"You're the Gray Armored Knight too!"
"Obtain the unique Basic Class [Gray Armored Knight (Unique)]!"
