Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2833 1552: The Mysterious Knight (Part 2)

Payton clearly failed to grasp Leo Ray's intent, hesitation lingering on his enormous gray visage. Right then, Lila's commanding voice cut through: "Second Elder, obey the order of His Majesty the Human!"

"... Understood!"

Gazing at Lila's resolute pale features, Stone Giant leaders such as Payton harbored inner uncertainties yet promptly sprang into motion.

With operations flowing seamlessly once more, tension sparked in Lila's lovely gaze as it shifted to Leo Ray.

Though the Stone Giants' chief had swiftly caught Leo Ray's hint and suspected these newcomers as potential allies, striking first would surely mark them as ungrateful, possibly flipping the visitors' stance.

Ultimately, no obligation bound these outsiders to help, injecting pure unpredictability.

As the proverb states, 'All warfare hinges on deception.' Should foes foresee their expectations and launch a surprise assault, it remained entirely plausible.

"Relax, I've got this under control."

Leo Ray was fully aware and clutched a vast Tier 7 Ice System Binding Spell Magic Scroll named "Breaking Army Ice Chain," poised to freeze the terrain ahead into a frozen wasteland instantly.

Should adversaries defy expectations, this scroll alone would shackle their advance, allowing his Tier 5 Alchemy Legion and Summoning Scrolls to inflict devastating blows.

While mulling this over, thundering hoofbeats intensified. Beyond the Amber Barrier, a colossal cavalry force pierced the dense fog, racing toward them in haste.

These riders mirrored Human heavy cavalry, encased in full gray plate armor with mere slits of glowing orbs peeking from helmet visors, concealing their identities.

Moreover, their mounts donned hefty barding, resembling ambulatory bastions.

Strikingly, each steed sported a lone horn on its brow, granting superior might over common horses and evoking elusive unicorns.

As this ironclad host shattered the haze, their momentum surged, closing to mere hundreds of meters from the lines in moments.

Facing these enigmatic riders, lances and shields at ready and nearly upon them, allies gulped nervously, aware the foe could traverse that distance in a flash!

The crushing pressure of their onslaught rivaled the relentless "Corrosion" barrage still hammering away.

The "Corrosions" persisted in their frenzy likely because they never foresaw this cavalry as backup. With zero prior bonds—and prior threats from the riders—a three-way clash wouldn't disadvantage them.

Leo Ray gripped the Magic Scroll amid his elite guards, scrutinizing the opponents' every twitch. A straight charge through the Amber Barrier would trigger his ace instantly.

Tension knotted in Leo Ray's chest momentarily. A misjudgment would tangle matters severely.

Though his hidden weapons could maul the unknown cavalry, "Corrosion" forces might exploit the chaos to shatter the Absolute Defense Barrier.

Caught off-guard, even Little Jie's hasty new shield wouldn't suffice; Leo Ray would unleash fully, brandishing the Divine Stone Weapon against the "Corrosions."

As nerves peaked and Leo Ray neared scroll activation, the cavalry—on the verge of breaching the Amber Barrier—abruptly veered apart like a bifurcating steel flood, thundering toward the encircling parasitic Earth Dragons and "Corrosions."

This flanking maneuver deliberately skirted the central defenders!

Instantly, vanguard riders leveled heavy lances at parasitic Earth Dragons and "Corrosions," plunging into battle with fury.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Thunderous blasts of energy resounded. Beneath the cavalry's steel deluge, the hulking Earth Dragons—though bulky and tough—toppled chaotically, swallowed by the charge, robbed of chances to strike our lines.

"His Majesty foresaw it perfectly—these unknown cavalry are here to support us!"

This sight electrified both our elites and Stone Giant fighters. Morale soared; some bolstered the Absolute Defense Barrier fiercely, others joined the riders against "Corrosions."

At the group's heart, Leo Ray exhaled deeply, brandishing his Magic Wand to hammer the towering parasitic Earth Dragons.

These behemoths loomed over the cavalry, but Leo Ray's team landed pinpoint strikes effortlessly.

In the fray, Leo Ray spotted more details.

The cavalry's mighty rush disrupted Earth Dragon and "Corrosion" ranks but dealt scant deeper damage.

This revealed their shared limitation with regular troops: inability to slay "Corrosions," with many riders crushed outright by parasitic Earth Dragons.

"Then how has this enigmatic fortress held off the 'Corrosions' for so long?"

While Leo Ray mulled, parasitic Earth Dragons grasped their stalled assault on the barrier. Roaring in rage, they withdrew underground alongside "Corrosions," dotting the field with vast craters.

"Shall we press the attack?"

Moli arched her brows eagerly at Leo Ray. Hooded face aside, her tone brimmed with thrill, battle-hunger unquenched.

"Remember, magical ley lines still churn violently—not something to trifle with casually."

Leo Ray shot down the notion with a wry grin, firm resolve.

Top priority: link up with the mysterious fortress' might. Only ally confirmation brings true security.

Before Leo Ray, Lila, and Stone Giant elites reconvened—Payton foremost, voicing regret: "Pardon me, Your Majesty. I questioned your order; punish me!"

Payton dropped to his knees, other Stone Giant officers mirroring in contrition.

"No need, all of you. Victory's light draws us equally."

Leo Ray stooped to lift Payton, flashing a gentle smile.

Rising anew, Payton and comrades displayed heightened genuine reverence, standing dutifully aside.

Lila and Kira mirrored the sentiment, poised for Leo Ray's directive.

"Now, let's connect with that mysterious fortress."

Leo Ray signaled his powerhouses, advancing to the Absolute Defense Barrier's rim.

From the enigmatic cavalry, a burly Gray Armor Knight leaped down, escorting a few toward Leo Ray.

"Gratitude for your crucial aid, Excellency."

Leo Ray greeted the unknown figure first: "Be at ease, Excellency—we seek not your fortress."

"You, the human lord of these half-giants?"

The figure waved dismissively, posing abruptly.

His gravelly, aged timbre matched the prior furious bellow.

"Indeed, we've come to suppress the magical ley lines' outburst."

Leo Ray dipped his head, replying steadily.

"Come with me."

The odd knight fell silent, beckoning Leo Ray's party onward.

All present traded astonished looks.
