Imperial Crown.

Chapter 96: Defeating Heleti

Heleti's voice was not loud, but it swept through the scorpion nest like thunder.

If this statement came from anyone else, it would be laughed off.

But because it came from Hlathi's mouth, it is an indisputable fact.

The "Sand King" always keeps his word, whether it is good or bad.

Raven seemed to have no third choice except surrender or death.

However, in full view of everyone, Raven took a deep breath and suddenly smiled at Helaiti!

Surrender? Die?
No, that would not be his choice.

He trudged from the Eagle Territory, braved the wind and snow, stepped onto the bloody heights, and arrived at the Scorpion's Nest.

In order to achieve the plan, the Eagle Army paid a terrible price. Raven is able to stand here today by standing on the corpses of his soldiers.

One will be a million bones.

As a leader, he couldn't let these people's sacrifice go to waste.

Tearing off his cloak and throwing it on the ground, Raven calmly and steadily began to arrange:

"It's the same tactics as before. Margaret will do her best to stop Firebeard, Nancy will continue to contain Steelfang, and Volav will be in charge of the battlefield."

After saying this, he took a step forward and faced Heleti:
"I'll take care of this 'Sand King'!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the horse thieves immediately showed mocking expressions, looking at Raven as if he were a clown who was ignorant of his own life.

Some people have already started to laugh loudly.

"Haha, is he the only one who can take care of Lord Sand King?"

"Is he scared out of his wits? How pitiful!"

"Why should we pity him? He dared to challenge Lord Sand King. He deserves it!"

Margaret rarely spoke and began to roll her eyes, already thinking about leaving this place of trouble immediately after Raven died.

Nancy's face turned pale, and her tone was filled with worry: "Raven! What nonsense are you talking about? You are only at the first level. Why don't we work together to deal with Heleti? Maybe there is still a chance!"

Volaf's face was solemn and serious, and his voice was full of determination: "Lord Baron, lead the brothers to charge again, we haven't lost yet!!"

"Of course we won't lose!" Raven took a deep breath, straightened his body, turned around and smiled:
"Soldiers versus soldiers, king versus king!"

"I'll deal with Heleti, and you go and clear out these minions."

"You guys, please don't embarrass me!"

Volav's heart sank, and he nodded vigorously:

"Your will...will be carried out!"

This was not the first time Volav said this, but it was the first time that he felt this sentence was so heavy.

"Haha, you have some courage." Heleti had a relaxed smile on his face:
"Go on, I have plenty of time for you."

Obviously, he didn't take Raven seriously.

Raven stroked the staff, and the slightly rough texture of the dragon locust wood fed back into his palm, giving him a sense of security.

A second-level magic called "Burning Embers" is also stored in it.

After hundreds of times of practice and with the help of the Elvish language, Raven managed to store it in his staff before setting foot on the Bloody Highlands.

If used at the right time, it will be the key to determining the outcome of the battle.

Raising his staff and pointing it at Hlaiti, Raven said in a steady and confident voice:
"I'll take your life."

As soon as he finished speaking, a layer of azure light lit up on the staff, and the next moment, a stream of water light gushed out and headed straight for Helaiti!

The Sand King snorted coldly and swung his spear, swatting away the water light like swatting a fly:

"Just based on this..."

But before he could finish his words, clouds of mist suddenly spread out, rising from the ground, flowing out from the cracks in the wall, and condensing in the air.

In the blink of an eye, the entire city was shrouded in thick fog!

The second first-level magic stored in the staff is water mist.

Nancy looked at Raven as if she was looking at a beautiful piece of jewelry she had never seen before: "Water Mist! Raven, when did you master so many magics?"

Fire spell, storm spell, water spell, he has cast spells from three completely different factions!

Could it be that Raven is actually... a magical genius?
The witch's feelings were completely different from Nancy's. The stronger Raven's magical talent was, the more she hoped that he would die soon, and she gloated over his misfortune - what's the use of having great talent, the curse on his body destined him to die young!
Use it. The more you use it, the less likely you will die at the hands of Helaiti!
Raven stepped into the mist:

"Hlati! I'm here to kill you!"

At the same time, Volav roared:
"Follow me!!"

Wang and Bing were walking in opposite directions towards the same goal.

The battle begins again!

Helaiti was in the fog. The thick fog covered him like the darkness of night, and he could not see his hand in front of him.

Raven even used fireball magic to create four explosions in succession. The violent sound echoed in the city, making Heleti lose his direction for a moment.

The shouts and cries of killing coming from outside echoed in the city wall, layer upon layer, making it difficult to tell the source.

The thick clouds and fog also made him feel very uncomfortable. His breath was full of moisture, and his armor was soon covered with wet marks. Even his hand holding the spear felt a little slippery.

Although this move was unexpected, Helaiti did not think that Raven could pose any threat to him.

Raven's use of this method was just another proof that he was unable to confront him head-on. It was useless except for delaying a little time.

When the clouds and fog clear, they will still die!

Plop, bang——

"Uh--"

At this moment, there was the heavy sound of a body falling to the ground, accompanied by the collision of armor and weapons, and the screams of people before death.

Helaiti frowned slightly. Raven was not wearing heavy armor, so the one who fell could only be his scorpion guard.

A bad premonition arose in Helaiti's heart.

Could it be that Raven could see the situation clearly through the fog?
Heleti guessed correctly, Raven could indeed do it. At this moment, he was pulling the enchanted rapier out from under the throat of a scorpion guard.

The blood flowed on the ground, making the smell of blood in the air a little stronger.

Using the Eye of Truth, the entire environment of the city was clearly visible to Raven. He tiptoed and moved forward towards the next Scorpion Guard.

The scream that just happened made every Scorpion Guard more alert, and the one in front of him was no exception. He was looking around nervously and listening to the sounds around him with his ears perked up.

Seeing this, Raven curled up the corner of his mouth into a cold smile, and kicked a broken knife away with his toes, making a sharp sound.

"Who!?" The Scorpion Guard was indeed an elite soldier. He moved upon hearing the sound and swung his sword fiercely towards the direction of the broken knife!

At the same time, Raven had flashed behind him, and the enchanted rapier moved at the fastest trajectory!
The scorpion guard's body suddenly froze, his eyes widened, his mouth opened, the tip of the sword protruded from his mouth, but no sound came out.

He put away the rapier and shook off the blood beads on the blade. The Scorpion Guard's body fell to the ground like a bag of flour, and the sound of armor colliding could be heard again.

Another one died!
Helaiti frowned, and at the same time he thought of a way to deal with it.

At first he chose to remain silent because he didn't want to expose his position in such a chaotic environment and give Raven an opportunity to take advantage of him.

But now that it was confirmed that Raven could move freely in the fog, there was no need for him to continue to be cautious.

Heleti raised his arms and shouted, "Scorpion Guards, gather to me!"

As long as we gather everyone together, we can rush in one direction. The city wall is not big, so we can always break out!

The sound echoed in the city, and the Scorpion Guards suddenly felt more confident and started to rush towards Heleti.

However, for humans with all five senses, the most common way to determine direction is still to use their eyes. It would be a bit difficult to ask them to use only their ears to determine the source of a sound, especially in an environment like the city with constant echoes.

Only four of the remaining six Scorpion Guards managed to find the direction of Helaiti.

Raven showed a sly smile on his face, and suddenly imitated Heleti's voice and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Don't go over there, he is impersonating me!"

The two of them had different voices, but in this depressing environment and weird atmosphere, it was enough for the Scorpion Guards to distinguish the real from the fake.

This immediately panicked the four Scorpion Guards who had approached. They froze in place, unable to advance or retreat!
"Don't listen to his nonsense." Heleti remained calm: "Gather quickly!"

While Heleti was talking, Raven raised his enchanted crossbow, aimed at a scorpion guard who was near Heleti, and pulled the trigger.

The crossbow arrow pierced through the thick fog like a bird returning to its nest, and suddenly pierced into the scorpion guard's forehead!

Another body fell cleanly.

Raven continued to imitate Heleti's voice: "Danger, get out of there!"

This time the body fell too close to the spot where it fell. Several scorpion guards nearby were able to clearly determine the location, and their trust in the "Helaiti" in the distance immediately increased by several points.

As he still couldn't see his scorpion guard, Heleti became anxious. "Don't listen to Raven's nonsense. Can't you even recognize my voice? I emphasize again, stay close to me!"

Raven's voice followed: "He is Raven! He brought you together just to kill you!"

Heleti snorted coldly: "Three people have already died. If I were Raven, would I need to do such a boring thing!?"

"If you weren't Raven, how would you know there would be three of them!?" Raven asked immediately.

"How ridiculous! This is nothing..." Before he could finish his sentence, Helaiti realized something was wrong.

Now there is thick fog, and the environment has become extremely noisy because of Raven's deliberate disruption. The sound of armor falling to the ground is mixed with the sound of fighting outside. The Scorpion Guards are not extraordinary, and their hearing is not as sharp as Heleti's, so it is not so easy to distinguish them.

There was only one scream!
In this case, only the murderer himself can accurately report the number of deaths!

"You're speechless, Raven?" Raven suddenly shouted, "Too clever, too clever. Kill him!"

Upon hearing this, a scorpion guard who had already touched Helaiti's side, tightly grasped his spear and stabbed fiercely in the direction of "Raven" in his memory!

Hearing the sound of footsteps breaking through the air, Heleti quickly moved aside, but the sound of footsteps immediately attracted the attack of another Scorpion Guard!
A trace of anger rose in Helaiti's heart.

The Scorpion Guard that he had carefully trained was actually used by Raven to become a weapon against himself!
At this point, there was no point in explaining. No matter how much he felt heartbroken and painful, Helaiti did not dare to stop.

He didn't know whether besides the Scorpion Guards, the cunning Raven was also among them!
The gun shot out like a python, wrapped in rolling yellow sand and fighting spirit, killing everyone who approached it. For a moment, the smell of blood around Helaiti became particularly strong.

During this time, he heard two more sounds of a corpse falling to the ground.

"Raven, come out!!!" Heleti waved his spear and roared: "Face me!!!"

Helaiti's heart was bleeding as he had to kill all the team he had carefully trained!

"Really? Then you have to find me first!" Raven's voice was unpredictable in the thick fog, and it was impossible to determine the direction.

Along with a low chant, an orange-red fireball broke through the fog and rushed towards Helaiti with the sound of rolling wind.

Helaiti took a deep breath, and yellow sand fighting spirit surged out, covering the surface of the armor with a layer of amber-like light, as if he had put on another layer of armor.

The fireball hit the Dou Qi armor and exploded. The blazing flames briefly dispersed the thick fog around Helaiti, allowing Helaiti to see the dead bodies around him, and then enveloped him again.

It was this blow that made Helaiti feel relieved again.

Although Raven is considered to be extremely talented, being able to master both fire and water magic at the same time, he is ultimately only a first-level magician.

It poses no threat to Helaiti at all!
Heleti did not see the wind wall technique that Raven used before. If he had seen it, perhaps it would not have been so easy.

As if refusing to accept his fate, Raven continued to use fireballs, hitting Heleti in vain, occasionally shooting with a crossbow.

Even in the thick fog, Heleti gradually found Raven's rhythm and stopped wasting his fighting spirit. He could often extinguish fireballs and break crossbow arrows with a slight wave of his spear.

"Aren't you going to kill me?! Are you just relying on these little tricks?" Heleti's voice was full of disdain and impatience: "You don't mean to hold me here and let me die of old age, do you?!"

"It's time..." Raven's voice rang out from the thick fog, heavy and serious: "After playing for so long, it's time for you to know my true strength!"

After saying this, Raven began to chant loudly.

Heleti immediately gathered his spirits, summoned the fighting armor again, held up his spear, and prepared to meet the attack!

"Sa——" When the last syllable came out, Heliti's heart was chilled, and he stared at the direction where Raven might attack.

Immediately afterwards, a little fire appeared from the thick fog and rushed in front of Helaiti!

A fireball!
At this moment, Helaiti showed the concentration and stability that is unique to a third-level strong man. He thrust out the spear in his hand, and the yellow sand fighting spirit burst out, extinguishing the oncoming fireball in a whoosh, and a ball of warm flames exploded!

He took a deep breath and prepared himself for the upcoming attack, but the air suddenly became quiet and no attack followed!
After a while, Raven's voice came from the thick fog: "Hahaha... Heleti, look at your face as if you were facing a great enemy. A fireball spell scared you like this? Are you the 'Sand King' or the 'Gerbil'?"

Heleti's face tightened and he dispersed his protective fighting spirit. He felt ashamed, annoyed and amused at the same time: "Raven, you are a baron, but you can only..."

Before he finished speaking, Heleti changed his tone and said with a fierce tremor:

"Mother fuck"

A wild curse burst out of his mouth.

Just when Heleti was most relaxed, Raven had already waved his staff, uttered a syllable, and a bright white light enveloped the entire staff.

The long-suppressed second-level magic, Burning Embers, erupted at this moment!
Including the "Water Mist Spell" and "Wind Wall Spell" released previously, the magic stored in the staff has been exhausted.

And just like the previous two magic spells, the Burning Embers spell also worked wonders!

With the heart as the center, a cluster of bright white, viscous fire like magma erupted from the chest armor of Helaiti!
The explosive heat spread, evaporating all the water droplets hanging on Heleti's body and burning his armor. The armor changed from golden to silver, and then from silver to an almost translucent red. It even began to show signs of softening and began to gradually penetrate inward!
It was as if there was a burning dagger stuck in his chest, stabbing inwards little by little!

The facial lining of his armor spontaneously combusted under the scorching heat. Even with the protection of fighting spirit, the burning pain still caused Heleti to scream for a long time:
"what--!!!"

It doesn’t have the same momentum as “Meteor Shower” and “Pyroblast”, but the power of “Burning Embers” is no less!
Flames gushed out from the cracks in the armor and merged with the flames outside. The armor that was originally responsible for protecting its owner had now turned into an oven!
And Heleti is the piece of bacon hanging in the oven!
Yellow sand fighting spirit exploded, flowing out from every inch of Helaiti's skin, extinguishing the flames within the armor, and then madly rushed towards the heat source in his chest.

As the fighting spirit exploded, yellow sand gushed out from the ground and gathered towards Helaiti like a tornado!

The yellow sand driven by fighting spirit cut the steel, producing more and denser sparks. Gravel was constantly melted by the scorching temperature, turning into layers of crystals, which were then torn apart by the yellow sand that followed!
Ding——Sizzle!!!
Finally, after using up a small portion of his fighting spirit, Helaiti finally used his fighting spirit to cut open the chest of the armor. The piece of steel that had been softened flew out and fell to the ground, instantly turning into molten iron and melting a large amount of snow!
Although the crisis was resolved, Helaiti's breathing was still quite rapid, and the cold sweat on his forehead would be evaporated into white smoke by the flames as soon as it began to flow.

He started to panic!
Raven, actually still has this kind of hidden means!

God knows what other tricks he has up his sleeve. We can't drag it out any longer. We must end this quickly!
"Very good, you did a good job!!" Helaiti gritted his teeth and raised his spear.

The yellow sand fighting spirit all over his body burst out in an unprecedented manner!!!
At the end of the sandstorm spear, the last magic core exploded quietly!
With Helaiti as the center, the ground began to crack, and cracks appeared one after another. Yellow sand rose up and gathered around Helaiti as if it had heard an order!

Raven, who originally thought he had made some achievements, felt a chill in his heart, and sensed that a huge danger was approaching!

That is a danger that could take his life!

Raven raised the loaded crossbow and pulled the trigger again, but before it flew in front of Helaiti, it was ground to pieces by layers of yellow sand!
This scene made Raven's pupils suddenly shrink.

This move is unmatched!

Helai raised his spear high, and the yellow sand wrapped in the fighting spirit entangled it, just like a turbulent whirlpool in the sea, or as if dozens or hundreds of sand pythons were entangled together!
He Lai jumped high, shouted loudly, held the gun with both hands, with the blade pointing downward, and then fell suddenly!

Fighting skills, Wrath of the Earth Dragon!
boom--

The spear blade entered the ground, bringing with it a terrifying explosion, and then a wave of shock waves swept across the ground with the spear tip as the center. Wherever it passed, the ground shook, rolled, and broke like tofu, and yellow sand gushed out from the cracks and soared into the sky! !
The thick fog dissipated at this moment!
"Sand King" Helaiti, at this moment, seemed to have really become the king of yellow sand!

Raven rushed to the edge of the city wall and plunged into the pile of corpses, chanting a spell he had never heard of before, and did not forget to raise a shield left behind by the horse thieves to block in front of him!

Whoosh——Sizzle——!!!
The violent vibration almost dislocated Raven's internal organs, blood gushed out of his mouth and nose, and the corpse in front of him was thrown up.

The cold yellow sand that followed was like a knife fan, crushing the armor, clothes, skin, flesh, and bones of the corpses into pieces, and it came with a strong fishy smell!

Raven shrank his body and held up his shield. A violent cutting sound rang out. As his hand lightened, the shield shattered and sharp yellow sand rushed straight into Raven's body!
The intense pain made Raven clench his teeth so hard that his gums were bleeding. However, his eyes remained firm and he did not give up. Instead, he lowered his head and protected his chest with his hands!

The next moment, a cloud of yellow sand rose up from the ground, completely burying Raven!
This earth-shaking scene immediately attracted the attention of both sides, and the shouts and cries of those who were originally fighting became much quieter!

Many horse thieves set their sights on the city wall.

There was no more fog in the city, only a cloud of swirling sand and dust.

The morale of the bandits was boosted a lot!
"See? This is the power of Lord Sand King!"

"This is what happens when you dare to challenge Lord Sand!"

"Ha! Surrender! That Baron Raven must have been killed!"

However, Fire Beard and Steel Teeth were not as optimistic as these horse thieves. They looked at each other and saw a hint of amusement in each other's eyes.

As Hleti's "colleagues", they know Hleti much better than most people.

They knew that in order to deliver such an earth-shattering blow, Heleti must have used his most powerful trick.

Being able to push Helaiti to this extent shows how much of a threat Raven poses to him!

On the other side, Volav and other personal soldiers were still fighting in silence. They dared not look back, and were unwilling to look back, for fear of seeing the scene they least wanted to see.

Nancy's hand holding the staff became even more nervous. Although she was staring at Gangya, her mind had drifted elsewhere and her eyes began to turn red.

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and Heleti's figure vaguely appeared in everyone's eyes. The horse thieves burst into cheers:

"Long live Lord Sand King!!!"

Volav lowered his head deeply, tears in his eyes, and his expression became extremely ferocious.

Nancy took a deep breath, turned around decisively, and started chanting the spell!
Raven fell down, and now it was her turn to be in the front!

However, at this moment, accompanied by a rustling sound, a figure that was thinner but taller than Helaiti stood up from the yellow sand.

The carefully reinforced semi-monster leather armor on his body had rotted away like a rag. His left hand hung limply, and dark red blood flowed down his shoulder, covering his entire arm with sand.

Nancy burst into laughter and said, "Raven, you're still alive!?"

Margaret's face was gloomy. As Raven's slave, she knew Raven's current condition better than anyone else. Although his injuries were serious, his life was not in danger!
"What!?" Heleti's voice was full of surprise, and his lips, which were burned and stuck together, were torn open and bleeding:

"How on earth did you survive!?"

"Ahem!" A mouthful of sand and blood foamed from his mouth. He had no time to respond to Nancy's enthusiasm, nor did he have time to answer Heleti. He gave a hoarse order:

"Margaret, Nancy, do your best to contain Heleti!!!"

"Everyone else, keep attacking!!"

After saying this, he took out his staff and immediately began to chant the spell.

Volav felt as if he had come alive again, and responded loudly:

"Yes, Lord Baron!"

Nancy waved the staff in her hand and uttered a syllable. The last magic stored in it was activated, and a blazing white fireball flew towards Helaiti!

Although Margaret was reluctant, she had to scream. Black air burst out from her body, and strands of black air carrying the power of curse wrapped around Helaiti like tentacles!
"Damn it!" Helaiti cursed and rushed forward waving his spear!

At this time, where are Firebeard and Steelfang?!
Of course, the two of them were still there, but they didn't take advantage of this opportunity to make a move. Instead, they hugged their shoulders and watched the show.

As the leaders of the horse thieves, they have no shortage of money or women. The reason they appear here now is probably because of the power of Helaiti.

Even if they help now, there will be no extra benefits; if they don't help, Heleti, who has just finished a fierce battle, will not have the energy to cause trouble for the two of them.

So, what's the point of risking your life?
boom--

Heleti waved his gun to disperse the fireball, and his fighting spirit burst out, deflecting all the power of the curse. At this time, he was only ten meters away from Raven!
However, Raven chanted the spell too fast.

The blue light appeared on the staff again, and thick fog enveloped Helaiti once again!
As soon as one spell ended, Raven immediately began to chant a new spell. Even though Helaiti might rush over at any time, he did not pause for the slightest!
Of course, Helaiti did not stop. Such a short distance was not enough to make him lose his sense of direction!

Charge! Charge and kill Raven! !

But the next moment, another blazing white fireball came.

He can find the right direction, and so can Nancy outside the thick fog!
Waving the gun to scatter the fireball, a manic rage rose in Heleti's heart!

I am the "Sand King" Heleti! But one or two of you dare to challenge my majesty!

Just a few wizards and witches want to defeat me! ?

The fighting spirit surged on the spear, gathering into a whirlwind of yellow sand. He was ready to use his anger to grind Raven to pieces!
The sound of the spell chanting was getting closer and closer, and Helaiti could already clearly capture Raven's position!
There was ecstasy on his face: "Go to hell!!"

The spear pierced through and swept away the clouds. At that moment, Helaiti could vaguely see Raven's face.

At the same time, Raven finished chanting, and a brown-yellow light appeared on his staff.

Helaiti was shocked—he could actually release earth magic! ?
Just as this thought arose, Heleti suddenly felt his feet go soft and his whole body lost balance. The long spear sandstorm pierced out with inertia, leaving a bloody mark on Raven's cheek, scattered a strand of long hair, and whistled away!

"Do not--"

Heleti let out an unwilling howl, then fell to the ground and swallowed a large mouthful of dirty mud.

Helaiti struggled to stand up from the ground and rolled to the side, the anger in his eyes gradually fading.

The first effort is strong, the second is weak.

When he failed to kill Raven twice, his motivation began to fade, and he also understood why Raven was able to escape.

That wasn't luck, Raven probably sank himself into the mud to avoid the "Wrath of the Earth Dragon"!
Helaiti was indignant.

Three different factions of magic, what kind of monster am I facing! ?
A crossbow arrow shot from the sky and was intercepted by Helaiti's protective fighting spirit. Although he did not suffer any damage, he still felt a slight shudder!
The burned skin began to become extremely sensitive. The ashes and sand stuck to the skin, causing piercing pain while also sapping his strength.

The previous battle with Eric had already caused a considerable loss of his fighting spirit, and now after being hit by Raven's "Burning Embers", his fighting spirit has declined to less than one-fifth of the usual level!

What's even worse is that the critical "mud technique" just now made him completely lose his direction!
Not to mention where Raven is, Heleti doesn’t even know his own location!
His heart began to beat violently, making Heleti feel as if he had returned to thirty years ago.

At that time, he was only in his teens and had only a dagger in his hand, but he had to face an adult warty-skinned leech alone!

Now, he was experiencing the same feeling again.

If he keeps going like this, Raven can really kill him right here!!!

At this moment, he no longer cared about the majesty of the Sand King or the arrogance of the strong. He picked up the sandstorm spear, identified a direction and ran wildly!

Go, go, go...!!!
The fireball came from the side, but Heleti no longer tried to intercept it, but dodged it sideways.

It doesn't matter what direction you go, just rush out and survive!!!
Finally, a section of city wall appeared in front of him. Heleti roared wildly, and with his fighting spirit bursting out, he punched forward one after another without caring about his life!

Smoke and dust rose, and bricks and stones flew everywhere.

One punch, two punches, three punches...

Until the hand armor was deformed and blood flowed out, a hole was finally opened in the city wall.

A relieved smile appeared on Helaiti's face. The so-called "Sand King" was as satisfied at this moment as a mouse that had found food!

He took a few steps back, rushed up and kicked it!

The city wall exploded, and Heleti rushed out...

Finally saw the long-lost sunshine!

Heleti ran towards the castle without hesitation! !

Several bandits shouted enthusiastically:
"Lord Sand King!!!"

But soon, the voice disappeared, leaving only stiff and horrified faces.

Because Helaiti actually rushed directly in front of the horse thieves, missed their formation, and kept running without looking back.

It was only then that the horse thieves discovered that Heleti was no longer the glorious, majestic and inviolable person they had previously imagined.

The armor on his body was now pitted, tattered, and covered in mud, with a large piece missing from his chest. He looked miserable and embarrassed.

The exposed skin was covered with burn marks and traces of flesh curled up together, and traces of blood were seeping out as he ran.

His face was covered with a mask, so his expression could not be seen, but his steps were extremely flustered.

The bandits originally thought that Heleti had successfully escaped from the ambush, but considering his current condition and the "Sandstorm" spear sticking on the ground in the square, ominous guesses arose in their minds.

Lord Sand King... is he... running away!?
For a moment, morale was greatly reduced!
At the same time, Raven slowly walked out of the thick fog and returned behind his bodyguards.

He was covered in blood, but had a deep and confident smile on his face.

"Herati...leave it to me!"

Raven raised his head and drank a bottle of healing potion. He exhaled and shouted:
"Everyone else, rush forward
Kill them all——!!!"
