Chapter 904: Scattered


Staring at the fireball controlled by Sophia, Hayden made a final prayer in his heart.

As long as the power of the Holy Flame is not as terrifying as he imagined, then he still has a chance to turn defeat into victory.

It's a pity that Hayden didn't have the habit of praying in the past, and it will definitely not be useful to improvise now.

Moreover, Sophia represents the Mother of Holy Light.

The result of the Earl's prayer was to watch a large fireball with a diameter of more than five meters hit his Harrison family's team.

When he looked at it from a distance, he didn't think it was fast, but when he saw it in front of him, he found that even the knights couldn't avoid it smoothly under the huge fireball.

As for the power of the fireball, you can understand its horror without hearing any screams.

He was able to kill the knights of the Harrison family in an instant.

The earl, who had been trying to keep his composure just now, immediately thought of issuing an order to retreat.

But after seeing the power of the fireball, before the order to retreat was given, someone in his team had already retreated on their own initiative.

But under the threat of death, Hayden was unable to hold them accountable.

Surrounded by guards, they retreated until they could no longer see Lorne's camp and began to take a break.

It's just that he didn't know.

After taking inventory, Hayden found that his army had actually shrunk by several thousand people.

There is no need to investigate.

Many of those who escaped were conscripted farmers.

After looking around, the Earl even discovered that a few lords were missing.

This was not even a real fight with the Fast family, and a few women actually beat them into a state of disarray.

Earl Harrison's ugly face made the nobles who were planning to inquire stop in their tracks.

At this time, even those who despised Lorne understood how difficult Baron Fast was to deal with.

The silence made the atmosphere at the scene a bit depressing, and he knew that if this situation was allowed to develop, the alliance he had finally managed to win would be disbanded immediately, and Hayden would have to speak even if he was unwilling to do so.

But before he could think of what to say, his men hurried over to report.

"Sir, the Fast family is here."

The visitor's meaning was not clearly expressed.

He only said one sentence and disrupted the count's finally recovered spirit.

"Damn it, we actually caught up.

We retreated separately and met at Harrisonburg."

In their current situation, they would definitely not be able to continue fighting Lorne.

The chaotic army did not even have a chance to arrange a rearguard.

So Hayden prepared to break it into pieces to disrupt Lorne's pursuit while retaining as much strength as possible.

As for what to do after returning to his hometown, and what will happen if he meets Celine on the road, the Earl can no longer think about it so much.

Even after being dispersed, Hayden was no longer sure whether the departed lords would come back to gather.

Under the burning flames, his alliance was no longer stable.

From the evasive eyes of those lords, Earl Harrison could also see their thoughts.

If he wants to regain the hearts of the people, he must take the initiative to stay and resist Lorne now.

But is this possible?

Hayden looked at the knight who came to report and yelled: "Hurry up and pass on the order."

Earl Harrison proved with his actions that he was not so fearless, but the knight who scolded him showed a troubled expression.

As if he didn't know how to answer, the guy's hesitant attitude caught Hayden's attention.

He realized that he seemed to have misunderstood what the knight had just said, but the knight who had already made a mistake was obviously hesitant to correct it.

Fortunately, there was already a problem with Hayden's chain of command.

One knight coming to report was not enough.

When Hayden couldn't help but ask questions, another knight also rushed over.

The new guy obviously spoke more clearly than the first knight.

At least his meaning was not misunderstood by Hayden.

"My lord, Baron Fast has sent a messenger."

The difference between the envoy and the pursuer is not just one or two points.

The former is to save lives, while the latter is to kill.

Count Harrison, who had escaped, glared at the knight who couldn't tell whether to save his life or to save his life.

If he hadn't been free now, he might have personally punished the knight who reported indiscriminately.

But even though he had understood that the Fast family was just a messenger, the Earl's crisis was still not resolved.

Hayden could guess what Lorne wanted to do without having to meet the envoy.

"Send out scouts.

I want to know clearly what's going on with Lornfast's army, and also notify the camp so they can prepare."

Since Lorne planned to completely recruit him, Hayden simply took advantage of the opportunity and decided to delay for a while.

While fighting with Lorne, he gathered his own people to prevent his alliance from falling apart.

And Hayden was not the only one who had the same idea.

After hearing that Earl Harrison had no intention of surrender, Viscount Glenn, who had already offended Lorne and knew that Baron Fast had the habit of burning nobles to death, immediately jumped out.

"Yes, sir, as long as we regroup, our northern warriors will not be afraid of Lornfast's vicious witchcraft."

This guy has always been the most active one in opposing Lorne.

In the past, it was because he looked down on Lorne, but now, from Viscount Glen's sullen expression, everyone knew that he was afraid.

The destructive power of the Holy Fire still lingered in their minds.

Viscount Glenn was afraid.

This was not a shameful thing.

Just because people in the north are not afraid of death does not mean they are willing to endure the pain of burning fire.

Among them, those most likely to be burned to death by Lorne in public were Viscount Glenn and Earl Harrison.

After the others discovered that the Fast family was difficult to deal with, they all wisely chose to remain silent.

Fortunately, as the master, Hayden was definitely on Glenn's side.

The two sang in harmony, and they actually accidentally revealed the origin of the sacred fire.

"Well said, Viscount Glenn, Lornefast once went to the Heretic Island, where he must have obtained evil witchcraft.

Everyone, we have all been deceived, Lornefast and the Sophie of the Church.

Ya not only betrayed our northern border, but also betrayed his own beliefs.

As the nobles of the North, we must never bow before the power of evil."

At this point, Hayden can only use every means to discredit Lorne.

And what he said is actually true.

Unfortunately, it was too late now.

He wanted to take advantage of the Lorne peace talks to regroup, but Baron Fast had already sent troops to attack the camp left by Hayden.

With an army of more than 10,000 pure reformers, it would not be difficult for them to attack a large camp with all the elites
