Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 26: Chapter 26: Under the Cold Moon 1

Translator: 549690339

The night wind was bleak, the insects chirping and jumping.

Leo Ray stood motionless on a thick tree trunk, one hand on the main trunk of the tree and the other on the Falling Moon Blade at his waist.

Next to him stood the tall and burly Taylor, who was protecting Leo Ray with his body, a faint, invisible energy surrounding them both, completely concealing their breaths.

As for Serena Clark and Stella Clark, they were lurking in other trees around them, responsible for the perimeter alert, silently eliminating any potential threats that might appear and ensuring Leo Ray’s safety.

“Lord, they are coming.”

It wasn’t long before Taylor’s low voice rang in Leo Ray’s ear.

The next second, he noticed the leaves and branches in front of him slightly trembling.

Undoubtedly, this was the result of the ground shaking.

Boom, boom, boom…

About ten seconds later, the neat and heavy footsteps steadily approached, reaching Leo Ray’s ears first.

This feeling was like being hit by a bass cannon, shaking one’s heart.

Before Leo Ray could recover from the shock, a dense mass of figures appeared on a beast path formed by the long-term trampling of demon beasts and wild beasts in the distance.

Noticing this, Leo Ray, who was perched high above, immediately focused and leaned forward slightly, narrowing his eyes.

Thanks to the night vision function of [Blessing of the Southern Cross], as well as Leo Ray’s already excellent vision, he quickly took in the whole army as they advanced.

Soon after, the sound of metal armor colliding and the heavy footsteps mixed together.

The first to appear were ranks of heavy infantry marching in unison.

These most imposing soldiers wore black heavy armor, enclosed black helmets, and carried a large shield in one hand and a dagger in the other.

The wide-bladed surface of the dagger reflected a cold gleam under the cold moon, stabbing the eyes with pain.

Behind the heavy infantry were light-armored infantry with long spears in their hands.

Rows of solid metal long spears glinted in the moonlight, casting their reflections on the ground and dazzling the eyes.

Behind them were archers, also clad in light armor.

Although these soldiers were protected in the center of the formation, the sharp arrows in their quivers left no doubt that they were the most terrifying force in the entire formation.

In short, this army, like a deadly python emerging from its hole at night, was silent, yet exuded immense pressure as if it could crush anything blocking its path with a single blow.

“Is this a real otherworldly army… it’s so exciting.”

Seeing this, goosebumps rose all over Leo Ray’s body.

As he looked down at such an awe-inspiring scene, a chill rose involuntarily from the bottom of his heart, and Leo Ray felt an irrepressible excitement.

“I wonder when I will be able to command an army of this scale?”

At this moment, Caesar’s famous quote came to mind.

This kind of man’s romance filled Leo Ray with anticipation for his and his territory’s future.

“Lord, the commander ot this unit is about to appear.”

As Leo Ray thought about it, Taylor once again whispered.

After nodding to Taylor, Leo Ray slightly lifted his spirit, narrowed his eyes, and continued to observe.

The commander who could control such an elite unit must not be an ordinary person either.

Sure enough, following the archers, another even more powerful phalanx emerged.

This group of about fifty or sixty soldiers was all clad in specially made brown heavy armor, surrounding a black-robed figure wearing a hooded cap and riding a horse.

“My Lord, according to my estimation, the black-robed person is the commander of this unit, and I can now be sure that he is a Tier 3 Magic Powerhouse.

As for the brown-armored soldiers, they are the commander’s personal guards, and all of them are Tier 2. As for the total number of soldiers in this unit, it’s 2500.”

Then Taylor whispered again.

“Understood. Let’s see what they want to do here in the middle of the night.”

As he nodded slightly, Leo Ray stared at the black-robed figure, sizing him up.

Following the central phalanx of commanders, the rear army consisted of a mixed formation of archers, long spear soldiers, and heavy infantry.

After proceeding for some distance, the impressive unit finally stopped beside a large clearing in the forest.

This position was just below Leo Ray by a few dozen meters, so they could clearly observe the others’ every move.

On the empty clearing in the forest, under the command of the black-robed figure, the army quickly changed formation.

The heavy infantry, long spear soldiers, and archers still encircled the empty clearing in sequence, slowly shrinking inward, as if trapping something invisible in the middle.

“What do they want to do? Are they really trying to activate the barrier?” Seeing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but become more curious.

Through previous conversations with his subordinates, he had come to understand that the barrier areas in this otherworld were, simply put, a separate special space with its own unique world.

Only high-level magic powerhouses had the ability to create such a magical area.

Normally, the entrance and exit to the space would be hidden, and ordinary people wouldn’t be able to detect it.

However, it was undoubtedly possible for other magic powerhouses to forcibly break in.

On the other hand, after shrinking for a while, the large unit stopped again.

At the same time, the black-robed figure who had already dismounted, surrounded by layers of guards, came to the center of the clearing.

Then, the commander removed his black hooded cap and raised the wooden magic wand in his hand that emitted a strange glow.

It was only then that Leo Ray, who was only a few dozen meters away from the commander in a straight line, discovered that the other party was not a human at all, but a half-orc with a rough and fierce face!

“My Lord, it seems the commander is a Tier 3 Half-Orc Shaman.” Having also seen this scene, Taylor whispered beside him.

“So, it’s not a human army?” Hearing this, Leo Ray’s face suddenly revealed a shocked expression.

Since all the soldiers in this unit wore enclosed helmets, this point had undoubtedly greatly surprised him.

“My Lord, that’s correct.”

Taylor nodded and whispered, “The aura emitted by this unit is clearly stronger than that of a human army of the same tier, so this is not unexpected.” “Well, well, I never thought that I, as a Lord, would be kept in the dark.” Unable to help but shake his head, Leo Ray pursed his lips and continued to observe..
