The forces of Adrune shared a look, but none left.
Broderick icily replied, “Nathan, we've traveled so far to come here. Do you think we'd leave without killing you? You're too naive. Charge! Kill all the Eurasians here!”
The moment those words were out of Broderick's mouth, the fighters behind him roared and lunged forward.
Hidetake pulled out his sword to point straight ahead as he ordered the thousands of warriors behind him, “Attack!”
“Kill them!”
Jetroinian warriors rushed forward like tidal waves, determined to crush their enemies.
In response, Nathan said, “Attack! Wipe out these invaders!”
“Charge!”
Instantly, Fang, Destroyer, Heptakill, Myron, and the other commanders led the Eurasian warriors out to counterattack.
Meanwhile, Sevan, Colin, and the Elite Eight surrounded Nathan.
As part of Nathan's National Guards, their job on the battlefield was to stay close to Nathan and be ready to sacrifice themselves to keep Nathan safe.
Both sides were rushing toward each other like black water escaping from a broken dam. Once the warriors reached their enemies, the fierce battle began.
Fang was one of the fastest, and two fighters of Adrune hurled themselves toward him.
Nevertheless, Fang scoffed and uttered, “Excellent!”
With that, he stretched out both arms to launch an attack.
The two Adrunian fighters never thought Fang would be so swift in his movements. Unable to stop themselves in time, they ended up getting held by Fang by the neck.
In the next second, Fang gripped their heads and smashed them together.
Crack!
The sound of skulls cracking filled the air, and the two Adrunian fighters died instantly.
Right then, Destroyer, Heptakill, Myron, and the other commanders reached their respective opponents and began engaging them.
Simultaneously, over two thousand experienced soldiers from the North Army clashed with the Jetroinian warriors as well.
Who would dare to snatch Broderick's opponent from Broderick himself, after all?
Nathan was still in the same spot, and that was the same for Broderick and Hidetake.
It was then Nathan calmly said, “Sevan, Colin, Elite Eight, you don't need to protect me anymore. Go and help our people.”
Colin and the others hesitated when they heard him, but a beat later, they tensed their jaws and uttered in unison, “Yes, sir!”
Right after, they headed straight for the mighty Heavenly City fighters to support Fang and the rest.
Nathan then waved at Broderick. “Didn't you come all the way here to kill me? I'll give you a chance to do that. Come and fight me.”
Broderick grinned. “Sure. I'll do exactly that.”
With that, he strode toward Nathan.
Hidetake promptly said, “Mr. Broderick, I'll kill this vermin with you.”
With that, he shamelessly followed Broderick, intending to attack Nathan with him.
