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

Chapter 936: Chapter 589: Only Children Make Choices_3

This was a choice of life or death.

Or perhaps, as the mercenary captain said, this was a deadly trap from the start.

“What… should I do?”

Layne’s mind was in turmoil.

He never expected the other party to make a move against him at this moment!

However, this was also something that could be anticipated.

After all, the City Lord’s youngest son had been coveting the position of the Broken Blade Knights’ Captain for quite some time in secret.

And based on the current situation, the other party had clearly been plotting this all along.

“Even so, I will still stand by my faith – to protect the weak, even if it’s the last time in my life.”

Realizing this, Layne’s hesitating gaze became resolute once again.

Without any hesitation, he drew his bow and arrow, aiming directly at the Rock Horned Wolf King charging towards several mercenaries.

And behind him, another massive Rock-horned Wolf was already baring its sharp teeth, swinging its blood-red tongue, and rushing towards him with murderous intent.

As an Archer Knight, leaving his vulnerable back to the enemy was something Layne had never done before, but now, he had no other choice.

“Energy Concentration Snipe!”

The next second, a magic arrow emitting a strong wave of energy suddenly shot out from Layne’s metallic heavy bow.

As it stirred up a gust of wind, it raced straight toward the Rock Horned Wolf King that was charging towards the innocent mercenaries.

“Awoo…”

Without any suspense, the Archer Knight’s full-strength arrow successfully struck the head of the Rock-horned Wolf King.

This time, the huge impact from the arrow shot directly into the back of the wolf’s eye socket.

As a result, the vicious Demon Beast, which had stained with countless human blood, was killed on the spot as it was thrown through the air.

Seeing this scene, Layne remained calm in his bow-holding stance, and behind him, the fangs of another Rock-horned Wolf King were already incredibly close!

However, at that moment, another sudden change occurred.

The fourth Rock Horned Wolf King suddenly rushed out from another side, attacking towards the mercenaries once again!

At this moment, Layne, who was about to be swallowed by the giant wolf behind him, clearly didn’t have enough time to shoot another full-strength arrow that required charging.

And Bonnie and the other few awakened mercenaries, who had just relaxed their hearts a bit, turned ashen-faced once again.

“No matter what choice you make, you can’t escape your fate of death, hahaha!”

Wild laughter rang out.

Not far away, the smirks on the faces of Cliff and the Withered Old Man grew thicker.

Just like what the middle-aged mercenary captain said.

From the very beginning, they never intended for any of the people present to leave this forest alive.

“Fairy tales are really deceitful after all… There could never really be a hero to save the weak, right? We’ve just dragged this brave knight into this…”

At this moment, Bonnie closed her eyes, her grip on her Magic Wand loosened, as she completely gave up hope.

Meanwhile, Layne’s face remained extremely calm.

At this moment, in his heart, he suddenly pictured another young man with a gentle smile like a spring breeze and an upright posture.

“If that person was in charge here, such things wouldn’t happen anymore, right? I really want to see that person one more time.”

Just as Layne closed his eyes and completely gave up on everything.

A faint voice suddenly entered the ears of everyone present: “Making choices? Sorry, only kids make choices. I want it all.”
