Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence-Chapter 409 - 171: The Night Before the Final Battle · Are You Still Wearing Your Brass Bell?

The soldiers’ spirits soared, and it was only natural for their morale to be high because the scene in the sky was truly exhilarating.

A massive Griffin spread its huge wings, its imposing figure draped in excellent armored battle armor overshadowing the sky. On the back of the armored Griffin, a Knight clad in dazzling golden armor, wielding a Warhammer in one hand and raising the vermilion Banner of the Bauhinia family with the other, shone with the brilliant halo of the Fiery Sun, illuminating the entire battlefield.

Since the Empire’s founding, all of this has been a symbol of noble power, purity, and sanctity.

For thousands of years, humanity has followed such Lords, cutting through thorns and thickets, achieving countless merits and fending off numerous sieges from evil monsters.

Amidst the cheers of soldiers and common people, Death’s Claw let out a resounding scream and, like a divine weapon descending from the heavens, carried Su Li, diving down at lightning speed. Under the Witch Moon, the Warhammer shimmered with a cold light, smashing fiercely into the head of an incoming Harpy, shattering it into fragments with blood and flesh flying.

The sky filled with blood and fragments marked the beginning of the battle. A dozen Harpies let out cruel screams as they charged at Su Li, and Death’s Claw began to exert its full power, counterattacking swiftly. With each swipe of its claws, it tore open the chest of a Harpy, and in the blink of an eye, six Harpies fell from the sky like raindrops.

It was as if Death’s Claw and the hammer-wielding Big Guy on its back were placing a price tag on them.

Meanwhile, in another direction, the Flying Horse Knights were much more formidable. Following Su Li’s charge, their Long Halberds and Lances pierced the chests of four Harpies in an instant, knocking them down from the air.

Even the female warrior Ariana’s lance could shatter the Harpy’s corpse on the radiant Long Lance with a single shake, with countless pieces of flesh and feathers falling from the sky.

The weapon she wielded was none other than the iconic Lionheart Lance of the Hesse Territory. This powerful and divine Lionheart Lance was of perfect quality, not only capable of boosting the morale of allied forces but also unlocking fear.

When she charged with shield held high and lance poised, no cowardly Harpy dared to stand in her way. She was utterly unstoppable, with golden light bounding between the Harpy’s black formations, slashing left and right. Behind her golden figure, were the remnants of monsters falling to the ground like dumplings.

Harpies are notoriously cowardly creatures. They would never attack a powerful prey unless forced to. Under Ariana’s fierce assault, coupled with the unlocking of fear, their courage crumbled quickly. After she felled a dozen Harpies, at least thirty to forty injured and weary Harpies, shrouded in fear, broke down and fled the battlefield in despair.

On the ground, the Mounted Armed Attendants and surrounding Swan Knights, witnessing the fierce reinforcements, quickly regained their spirit and launched a fierce assault against the Harpies, coordinating with the Flying Horse Knights to surround and slay these monsters from all directions.

Su Li, a Lord who had rarely set foot on the battlefield, felt a surge of heat in his chest, his blood boiling, and bravely and valiantly slew five Harpies.

His actions were not just a momentary impulse nor youthful fervor, but the effect of the Lionheart Lance truly influencing him.

Under the effect of morale-boosting and allied inspiration, he was irresistibly filled with passion and fought fiercely.

On the ground, dozens of farmers and armed attendants, working with over twenty Swan Knights in the sky and three powerful Air Cavalry, fought for over half an hour. Finally, after slaughtering more than a hundred monsters, they successfully defeated this monster force, with the remaining Harpies fleeing in terror.

Including this battle, Su Li had personally smashed 13 monsters since his arrival, qualifying him as an experienced veteran even as a Warrior.

If he were to boast in the taverns of Hesse Territory, dressed in a commoner’s clothes, merely talking about his battlefield exploits would evoke awe among the Mercenaries.

After all, being able to kill three or four Gnolls, six or seven Harpies, and even a few Beastmen certainly counts as being well-experienced.

Many Mercenaries lick their blades their entire lives and might never have slain this many monsters.

Of course, if Su Li were to boast, he could never mention his equipment. Beneath him was a champion-level Tiger-striped Griffin, and on him was the dazzling perfect-grade Vibranium Rune Armor. Even when surrounded by six or seven Harpies, only a bloody gash on his cheek was left, while several attempts by monster claws on his throat were blocked by the powerful Vibranium Armor. One Harpy was even frozen into ice by the Cold Steel Rune on the armor, crashing to the ground and shattering into icy fragments.

After the battle, Su Li immediately used a Shalya’s Hand Potion. Though priced at only 50 Silver Coins, its effect was potent, aiding Knights in rapidly scabbing over wounds, as if the gentle caress of Shalya’s divine hand brushed over the Knights’ wounds.

This extravagant scene left the attendants and commoners below speechless. Was such a precious holy potion truly worth being used on such a large wound?

Even wrapping it in gauze for ten to fifteen days could also heal it, right?

Fastrick was startled when he saw the blood covering Su Li’s face. If anything had happened to the Lord in this battle, Chief Steward Hilude would have torn him apart and broken his legs!
