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

Chapter 24: Sudden Crisis_1

Seeing that the three of them looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy, Leo Ray's expression changed, and he immediately asked, "What's going on? Is there another strong aura around the territory?"

"My Lord, to be more precise, it's not just one person but an entire army." Serena Clark's pretty face was filled with seriousness, and her eyebrows furrowed.

"That's right, the aura is vast and chaotic. Although each individual has limited strength, when gathered together, it presents a uniform chill.

We can clearly feel that this is a force that can't be ignored. According to my estimation, it should be a professional team that has been through blood and fire."

Taylor focused his mind, sensing the approaching danger while speaking.

"How many people are there? In which direction are they coming from?"

At this moment, Leo Ray's heart began pounding, and the skewer in his hand didn't taste good anymore.

Facing this sudden life-or-death crisis, he, with a scalp tingling, indicated the three people to keep the Tier 1 subordinates unaware, and then lowered his voice.

Without a doubt, before the situation became clear, it was best not to cause widespread panic in the territory.

"My Lord, the estimated number of people is between 2,000 to 3,000, mostly composed of Tier 1 soldiers, a few Tier 2, but individual Tier 3 powerhouses are not excluded. There are no Tier 4 or above detected.

As for their location, they are coming from the northeast, and are currently marching towards our area as we speak."

Having confirmed that no other subordinates had noticed the situation, Taylor continued with a solemn expression.

Without a doubt, with his strength as a Tier 5 powerhouse, even if he were to face such an army head-on, he could retreat unscathed or even overpower the enemies.

However, the current situation was entirely different.

The battlefield changes constantly, and the enemy's base is located here.

If the enemy sent a surprise attack force during the battle, the consequences would undoubtedly be unimaginable.

The protective shield has only one day left; by then, the entire territory will be exposed to the enemy.

As a Tier 5 Berserker and the Lord's bestowed Tier 5 Dragon Slash Sword, if given enough time, it wouldn't be impossible to eliminate this force completely.

But what if this is only the enemy's vanguard or bait squad?

Taylor, who had spent some time in the army before being summoned, knew clearly that war is not about fighting one-on-one but facing a tight formation of thousands of opponents.

A well-trained and high-spirited army can often exhibit several times, or even dozens of times, the terrifying power of an individual!

From this, it can be seen that in an army, no matter how strong an individual's strength is, they can only influence the local situation at most, not the overall picture.

An experienced commander has many methods to disperse the enemy's forces, then strike at the enemy's core, and break through the enemy's main base.

Taylor may be capable, but he can only protect the Lord and perform other tasks when the enemy attacks the territory from all sides.

"2,000 to 3,000 people, coming from the northeast..."

On the other hand, forcibly suppressing the anxiety in his heart and feeling the hairs on his body standing up, Leo Ray calmed down and tried to think rationally.

According to the information obtained earlier, the north of the territory was a continuous mountain range.

The closest two human kingdoms to the territory are not in that direction either.

So, the question is, where did this sudden force come from?

Most importantly, he had only been here for two days, and the location of the territory had never been exposed.

How could it possibly attract so many enemies?

Moreover, stepping back ten thousand steps, even if the territory's position was accidentally exposed during the encounter with Kombu during the day,

The merchant and the mercenaries had left by boat from the west, which couldn't match up with this direction either...

In summary, based on the current information, there is only one possibility left.

"Could it be... their target is not my territory?"

Realizing this, Leo Ray, who felt slightly relieved, continued to ponder.

"So what is there in this forest that could attract them to march here in the middle of the night?"

At this thought, Leo Ray paused, and an answer immediately formed in his mind.

"My Lord, what should we do next?"

On the other side, sensing the enemy's increasingly closer presence, anxiety was spreading across Serena's face, and Stella Clark had the same expression.

Their identical eyes met, and both of them saw the visible unrest in each other's gazes.

"Don't worry, if I'm not mistaken, their target is not us."

Leo Ray patted Serena and Stella's heads one by one, signaling them not to be nervous and smiled.

"My Lord, you mean they have other motives?" On the other side, Taylor looked at Leo Ray's calm expression, puzzled.

"That's right."

Nodding slightly, Leo Ray took a bite of the slightly cold meat skewer in his hand and confidently replied, "I think that since they are marching in a hurry, they should change their route soon."

As expected, just as Leo Ray finished the skewer in his hand,

At almost the same time, Taylor and Serena and Stella could sense that the army did not continue to approach the territory but instead turned and headed south.

Realizing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, especially Taylor, whose admiration for Leo Ray in his eyes grew.

Undoubtedly, if there were only one individual on the battlefield who could influence the outcome of the entire battle, it would be the commander who stood above all armies!

An outstanding commander, even under the pressure of an overwhelming army, can face the attacking waves without fear, strategize thoughtfully, and instantly turn the tide, staining thousands of miles with the enemy's blood.

And through this incident, it's evident that the Lord in front of them undoubtedly has such qualities!

Thinking of this, Taylor's heart swelled with pride.

It seemed that signing a contract with such a Lord was his luck and the best decision in his life!
