Their losses in the forest were significant, but after leaving the forest, their losses were even greater.

With the Burning Blade clan leading the way, Blackhand finally reached Westfall Keep. However, Westfall Keep had already been occupied by Lothar. The Knights charged along the road, instantly crushing the Orcish lines.

Having fled desperately for the better part of a day, the Orcs were exhausted. Facing the spirited cavalry at this time, they had no power to resist.

Blackhand's Blackrock clan bore the brunt of the attack, collapsing after a single charge. The wolf riders fled immediately, leaving the infantry to face the slaughter of the human cavalry.

Blackhand himself also fled in a sorry state, only managing to escape under the cover of the Burning Blade blademasters.

The Orcs who followed out of the forest also encountered the cavalry's charge. Coupled with the attack from King Llane's army from behind, a large portion of the Orcs died in battle, with only a small number managing to escape.

According to incomplete statistics, over five thousand Orcs died in this battle.

Roger's gains were also significant. Killing a large number of Orcs allowed his Blademaster to level up to level 11, gaining three skill points.

Orc Slayer: Hero Title, when fighting Orcs, there is a high probability of perceiving the Orcs' weaknesses. At the same time, there is a certain probability of causing fear or anger in Orcs.

Three more achievement points arrived. Roger immediately turned his gaze to the skill bar, wondering which skill to strengthen.

Huh? Wind Walk seems to be able to be strengthened.

Just as he was about to strengthen it, Todman's shout suddenly came.

"Rogers, come with me to meet the King!"

Roger was helpless and could only stop strengthening his skills for now. He ran to Todman's side, "Lieutenant, what's the matter?"

Todman raised an eyebrow. He didn't know why Roger seemed dissatisfied, but he still said, "I'm not sure, but Sir Lothar is also there. I guess it might be related to reclaiming the lost territories."

Hearing this, the dissatisfaction in Roger's heart immediately dissipated. If he weren't in the army, he would have rushed back to Lakeshire to find his family right now.

Soon, the two arrived at Goldshire and met King Llane and Lothar.

King Llane was very happy to see Roger, "Welcome, our great hero!"

Roger was a little surprised, not understanding what King Llane meant.

Lothar said with a smile, "Your feat of killing dozens of Orcs alone has spread throughout the army."

Roger said indifferently, "They were just a few dozen weakened Orcs who were poisoned. There's nothing to praise."

King Llane looked at Lothar with a strange expression. Lothar was also very surprised. Neither of them expected Roger to be so unmoved. This obviously did not meet their expectations.

Lothar coughed lightly and said with a smile, "Regardless of whether those Orcs were poisoned or not, you were the one who killed them, weren't you? You must know that ordinary soldiers are no match for even a poisoned Orc. You are a well-deserved hero."

King Llane took over the conversation, "That's right. Although you are humble, it does not negate your bravery. I have decided to grant you—Rogers Kieshaan—knighthood."

[Achievement Earned: Stormwind Knight, obtained the Stormwind Knight title, 2 achievement points]

Two more achievement points arrived.

Before Roger could show a happy expression, Lothar said, "Rogers Kieshaan, in view of your performance in the war, I now grant you the rank of Sergeant and appoint you as the commander of B Company."

"B Company?"

Roger seemed to have opened up some memory, and he subconsciously looked at Todman beside him.

Todman gave him a forced smile, "You deserve it."

The soldier under him had risen three ranks and was now on equal footing with him. His mood was still very complicated. Especially since this soldier was only 20 years old, unbelievably young.

King Llane smiled and said, "Lieutenant Todman, in view of your performance on the battlefield and the success of the new army, you are now promoted to Captain and appointed as the commander of the newly formed Eleventh Legion."

Todman couldn't believe it, but when he saw Lothar nod, he immediately saluted excitedly.

"Willing to serve you, my Majesty!"

King Llane nodded with satisfaction.

Lothar then said, "Captain Todman, the Eleventh Legion will fully adopt the construction methods of A Company, so in the following time, you need to devote yourself wholeheartedly to the construction of the Legion."

Todman assured, "Sir, rest assured, I will definitely build a strong army for the kingdom."

Roger was a little anxious when he heard this, "Sir, aren't we going to take the opportunity to attack?"

Lothar understood his thoughts very well, "Of course we will attack. This time we will fully recover the lost territories and push the battle line back to the Black Morass. Now, I'm giving you a mission: immediately go to Lakeshire to scout the situation there."

"Yes!"

Roger shouted excitedly, gave a forceful salute, and turned to run out.

Just as he ran out, Todman chased after him from behind, "Rogers!"

"Uncle Todman?"

Todman led his warhorse out of the stable, "Rogers, lend you this horse first, return it to me when you come back."

"Thank you!"

Roger thanked Todman, and without being polite, he jumped on his horse and headed east.

Along the way, he occasionally saw knights cleaning up the battlefield. They were still hunting down Orcs, lest they hide and cause security risks.

After a while, Roger regained his composure. Going to Lakeshire to scout might mean encountering Orcs, and he had to strengthen his combat ability as much as possible.

Thinking of this, he opened the system and began to strengthen his skills.

[Strengthen Wind Walk, stealth increased by 10%, speed increased by 10%, attack increased by 10%]

[Strengthen Charge, obtain skill Dauntless Charge]

Dauntless Charge, speed increased by 10%, attack increased by 10%.

Dauntless Charge? This name sounds a bit familiar? Could it be Xin Zhao?

First the skills of Master Yi, then the skills of Xin Zhao, System, what are you doing? Could you be a League of Legends system?

Apart from the name, Blade Mastery and Dauntless Charge have nothing to do with League of Legends. Blade Mastery is still just ordinary swordsmanship, but it is faster, more skillful, and more powerful than the swordsmanship Roger knows in this world.

Dauntless Charge is not teleporting to the enemy's side to attack, there is still a charging process, but the charging speed is faster and the attack power is higher, and it still has not deviated from the scope of this world.
