Fredrinn Firecrown: The Weakest Villain

Chapter 156: Blue Mountain Army and Markelle Duskhill



Chapter 156: Blue Mountain Army and Markelle Duskhill

"What about you, Fredrinn? Can you handle that guy on your own?" The princess suddenly asked. Her words stunned the three people present especially Lester and Yvanna.

Fredrinn might be powerful, but against a half-step Void Tempering expert, even someone like him could not win.

A Void Tempering powerhouse was someone who had comprehended an intent and summoned its energy form.

The intent was a deeper understanding of a specific element or concept. Let's take fire intent for example. To comprehend fire intent, a martial practitioner needs a high affinity with fire and also a thorough understanding of its characteristics. Someone who had fully comprehended fire intent could increase the power output of any flame-attributed techniques or weapons with the fire attribute.

For half-step Void Tempering experts, although they hadn't fully comprehended an intent, they would have already formed the embryonic energy form.

Even peak Nascent Soul martial practitioners would be powerless against them.

"I'm not sure if I could beat him, but I should be able to withstand his attacks. I'm confident with my defense." Fredrinn answered after deep contemplation.

Lester and Yvanna were taken aback by his words. Fredrinn made it sound easy, but it wasn't that simple to defend against a half-step Void Tempering powerhouse.

"It still wouldn't be easy even if General Fredrinn could hold back the half-step Void Tempering expert. The enemy still outnumbers us by over fifty thousand soldiers. If we clashed with them with the army that we have, it would be a difficult battle." Lester shared his opinion. Considering the enemy's strength, he didn't want to be hasty. That would only lead to their destruction.

Fredrinn was silent for a moment. He had the Crown of Eternal Glory which could enhance his allies' physical attributes. He also possessed the Flame Dragon Crescent Blade which could significantly reduce the enemy's cultivation.

Crown of Eternal Glory [Legendary]

- Gives the wearer 1 charm attribute (??). Allies within a 500-meter radius will gain a significant boost in their health, endurance, stamina, strength, and Qi. They will also be immune to curses and negative status effects.

Flame Dragon Crescent Blade [Legendary]

- Increases the user's talent in pole-type weapons by 2 stars.

- Enemies within 500-meter radius will be afflicted with 'Terrify' debuff.

Other than his equipment, he also had the Flute of the Beast Whisperer which could summon a thousand Core Formation realm Sword-horned Carnivorous Unicorns along with their 10th Layer Nascent Soul realm alpha unicorn. Experience tales at m v|l e'-NovelBin.net

However, Fredrinn didn't want to reveal the unicorns. He wanted to keep them a secret for now and keep them as the trump card of the Firecrown Supreme Household.

"That's also what the enemies would be thinking right now. They outnumber us and they also have a powerhouse leading them so they must be confident that they could defend the plains. However, we could use their overconfidence to our advantage." Fredrinn's eyes narrowed into slits.

No one spoke. They waited for him to continue.

"To win this battle, we should take the initiative to attack."

Lester widened his eyes. He found it ridiculous. How could they win against an enemy who has more soldiers and stronger experts? He didn't know where Fredrinn got his confidence from.

Fredrinn noticed the subtle change in his expression. "I know it sounds ridiculous, but I'm that confident in my abilities. General Lester, please trust me. I promise that we will conquer the Roshire Plains if you lend me your support." While saying this, he stared deeply at Lester. He needed Lester's troops to win this battle.

Lester took a deep breath. He didn't expect to hear this from Fredrinn even after he had reminded him of the enemy's power.

'This guy took over two key locations in just a few weeks. Perhaps he might be able to do it…'

After careful thought, Lester looked back at Fredrinn and forced a smile. "Since you're so confident about this, I will give you my full support, General Fredrinn. However, if I ever sense that we are on the losing side, I will ask my men to retreat right away." He could only make this compromise since he was still uncertain about Fredrinn's claims.

Fredrinn smiled at his words. It was understandable for him to have some doubts. Lester hadn't seen him fight, but once the battle started, Fredrinn wondered if Lester would have a different opinion.

"That's more than enough, General Lester. For this battle, my Mad Bear Corps will take the vanguard. While we're here, we should discuss how we will attack them…"

The discussion became more serious after that.

Meanwhile, in the enemy camp.

A middle-aged man with a slash wound on his neck was overseeing the training of the troops. This man was the Commander of the Blue Mountain Army, Markelle Duskhill. Other than his prestigious military title, he was also the Grand Elder of the Duskhill Household which is a powerful family in the Blue Sky Kingdom. Their strength was equal to the supreme households of the Star Wind Kingdom!

At this moment, a soldier suddenly came towards him and gave a salute. "Commander, I have something to report!"

Markelle furrowed his eyebrows. Normally, the messengers would never dare to disturb him while he was training the soldiers. For this messenger to come to him, Markelle guessed that his report should be very important. "Speak." He muttered coldly.

The soldier knew that the commander was displeased after being disturbed so he didn't dare waste his time and said. "Commander, we have discovered another corps that entered the plains. According to our scouts' preliminary observations, they believed that the new troops were from the Mad Bear Corps led by the newly appointed enemy general, Fredrinn Firecrown."

Hearing this, Markelle narrowed his eyes.

Fredrinn captured two of the key locations they had gotten control of. Because of him, their control over the Roshire Mountain was limited and their main army was even forced to retreat. It was even said that his Mad Bear Corps was unstoppable.

"So they are targeting the Roshire Plains this time, but did they really think that sending the Mad Bear Corps and the Swift Wind Corps would be enough to defeat me? Am I that easy in their eyes? They must be blind!" Markelle gritted his teeth in anger. He felt that the enemy was underestimating him and it made him incredibly furious.
