The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

Chapter 59 The Wild Lion Knight
Mo Xien said, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes.

He turned his head, looked at the pale Hall not far away, and said in a cold voice, "Regardless of talent or ability, how can I be inferior to that trash?"

"But for so many years, in order to support Hall, you have been suppressing me!"

"Tell you, I've had enough!"

With a ferocious expression on his face, Mo Xien gritted his teeth and said, "Since you refuse to pass on Riverrun City to me, then I have to take it myself!"

In the distance, Sauron's eyes flickered slightly.

The sudden change caught everyone in Riverrun by surprise, Viscount Hall's face was even paler, and the fear in his eyes could not be concealed.

However, from the conversation between Mosheen and Welch, Sauron understood everything.

"Is it the Duke of the West again?"

Sauron narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the wild lion knight Rotaire.

The other party appeared here at this moment, obviously representing the Duke of the West Territory, Fels.

Among the thirteen cities in the Western Territory, Riverrun City, like Night Crow City, has an independent status. Although it is nominally a vassal of the Duke of the Western Territory, it actually does not listen to the announcement.

For many years, it has always been the wish of the Duke of the West to integrate the thirteen cities in the West.

In order to control Riverrun, the Duke of Westland made a deal with Mosheen to help him deal with Welch and support him to become the lord of Riverrun.

"What a loving father and filial son!"

Looking at the scene of father and son fighting each other before him, Sauron sighed in his heart.

"Rebel!"

Welch gritted his teeth, looked at Moxien in front of him, and felt infinite regret in his heart. If he had been more decisive at the beginning, he might not have fallen into the current situation.

Without saying a word, Moxien slowly raised the dagger.

Welch's face was gloomy and uncertain, and he had no pressure to deal with the rebellious son in front of him, but the wild lion knight Rotaire beside him made him feel afraid.

Also a high-level knight, Rotaire is at his peak, while Welch is old and has just had a fierce battle with the Phosphorus Golem.

Even in his heyday, Welch couldn't guarantee that he could beat the Lion Knight Rotaire, let alone his current state.

"Come on, father!"

Mo Xien took a deep breath, and said quietly: "Let me see how much strength you have now!"

While speaking, Mo Xien stepped forward.

The short blade slashed like a half moon, Welch's face changed slightly, and he stepped back one after another.

"Intermediate knight?" Welch's face was ugly.

"How is it? Father."

The corners of Mo Xien's lips were raised, and he sneered: "I didn't expect that I had already broken through, did you?"

"For so many years, you have been restricting my resources in order to suppress me, but now, I have broken through the realm!"

"Aren't you supposed to be proud?"

While speaking, Moxien raised his head and said loudly: "Knight Rotaire, please don't interfere in the battle between me and my father."

"As for the others, I will trouble you!"

Hearing Moxien's words, Welch's face changed slightly, and he shouted loudly.

"Hall, go!"

"Go back to Riverrun City, and in my name, lead the army here as soon as possible!"

The current situation is already very dangerous for Welch.

The threat of the wild lion knight Rotaire made him realize that it would be difficult for him to escape, and the only way to break the situation was for Hall to flee back to Riverrun and send troops over.

"Yes, Father!"

Hall woke up like a dream, nodded quickly, pulled the rein without hesitation, turned around and ran wildly.

Mo Xien sneered, but he wasn't nervous at all.

Seeing this, the wild lion knight Rotaire chased after him calmly.

"Lord Sauron, please help Hall!"

On the spot, Welch said loudly: "After this incident, Riverrun City will definitely thank you."

"it is good!"

Sauron didn't talk nonsense, and chased towards Hall with a few guards beside him.

In fact, even if Welch didn't say anything, Sauron would not remain indifferent.

The Duke of the Western Territory, Fiers, wants to unify the Western Territory, and Riverrun and Night Crow City are both his goals. Sauron naturally understands the reason why his lips are dead and his teeth are cold.

Seeing Sauron chasing after him, Welch heaved a sigh of relief.

But then, his heart sank.

On the opposite side, Moxien looked indifferent, with a confident expression.

"Riverrun...is there someone from you?"

Welch seemed to have guessed something, and asked with a gloomy face.

"I said, father, you are old!"

Mo Xien shook his head, and said quietly: "Riverrun City has long needed a new lord, no one is willing to be ruled by your rotten ideas forever!"

After all, Mo Xien stopped talking nonsense.

He waved his hand, and surrounded Welch with several subordinates.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Escorted by two knights, Viscount Hall ran wildly through the forest.

Now that the situation is urgent, he must return to Riverrun City as soon as possible to have a chance to resolve the crisis.

However, at this moment.

The figure of the lion knight Rotaire suddenly appeared in front of him, and Hall was so shocked that he pulled the rein desperately.

Herod!
Following the neighing of the horse, Hall also fell off the horse, seeing Rotaire not far away, the expressions of the two knights beside him changed greatly.

These two people are Welch's diehards.

They were ordered to protect Hall, but now, facing the Wild Lion Knight Rotaire, even if they are no longer afraid of life and death, they have almost no chance of winning.

"Master Hall, you go first!"

The two knights drew out their cross swords, with resolute expressions on their faces, and then roared, charging towards the Wild Lion Knight without hesitation.

However, the next moment.

Rotaire drew out the cross sword, and his movements were as swift as lightning. Just a momentary staggering ended the lives of the two knights.

Seeing this scene, Hall turned pale.

"no no!"

Seeing the wild lion knight Rotaire approaching him step by step, Hall's eyes were full of panic, and he shouted, "Don't kill me!"

"I can't die here yet!!"

A trace of disdain flashed in Rotaire's eyes, and he sneered, "What a waste, I don't know what Welch thinks, but he would choose to support a softie like you."

After all, Rotaire slashed out with a sword.

The sword slash originated from a senior knight shrouded Hall's head like the shadow of death, but at this moment, a cross sword was handed out in vain.

Clang!

The collision between the blades made a crisp sound.

Rotaire frowned slightly.

But not far away, Sauron arrived in time, with a calm and indifferent face.

"Lord Sauron, please save me!!"

Seeing Sauron's arrival, Hall seemed to grasp at straws.

"Are you that Sauron?"

Hearing Sauron's name, Rotaire's face darkened for a moment.

"Not bad, what's the problem?" Sauron raised his brows.

"Hahaha! Good! Very good!"

Rotaire laughed wildly twice, and said quietly: "I originally wanted to go to Night Crow City to find you, but now I meet you, but it saves a lot of trouble."
