With the recovery effect of Clarity, Zhang Yun could finally use healing twice and not just once.
And the originally half-crippled body of the Hero Kanan also returned to its peak state with these two mouthfuls of fresh and nourishing milk. If the blood stains weren't too obvious, it would be impossible to tell that he had been injured.
Kanan opened his mouth and asked, "What do we do next?"
Zhang Yun glanced at the black goat recently slaughtered in the camp.
"Use the black goat's blood and smear it on your body. Then, lie on the ground and pretend that I have killed you. After Dark Knight Leon arrives, I will talk to him and distract him. You find a good opportunity to suddenly attack him and catch him off guard. Or, wait for my signal."
Kanan asked doubtfully, "What signal?"
Zhang Yun raised his right hand and clenched it lightly. He recalled more than half of the Shadow Soldiers on the field into the summoning space. Only 10 Shadow Soldiers remained behind to disguise themselves and conceal Zhang Yun's true ability.
"When I summon all the Shadow Soldiers, it will be the signal for me to attack. When the time comes, whether you attack directly and cooperate with the Shadow Soldiers to fight or you continue to play dead and wait for a better opportunity to launch a sneak attack, do as you see fit."
Kanan nodded his head solemnly.
"I understand."
After Hero Kanan said that, he followed Zhang Yun's plan and smeared the black goat's blood on himself. Then, he followed Zhang Yun to a narrow valley path where he could not see the situation of the camp. He pretended to be dead and lay motionlessly on the ground. A white cloth full of blood covered his upper body.
The two waited for a long time.
Gradually, Dark Knight Leon finally arrived with his guards.
He immediately noticed the familiar figure lying on the ground.
"Oh? You really killed Kanan? Interesting! I thought that Hero Kanan could last a little longer under your attack! Or…you're pretty rough to kill."
Zhang Yun calmly looked at the tall knight on the black horse. The black heavy armor on his body emitted a stream of light in the lava that constantly spurted out of the ground. It was like it had a unique absorbing heat effect.
"You tricked me?"
The Dark Knight Leon showed a frivolous smile.
"No," Leon said.
"I'm just testing you. You're only at Level-1, but you can summon Level-2 Shadow Soldiers. Furthermore, the pressure that those Shadow Soldiers are giving off is not inferior to that of a normal Level-5 Professional. Coming all the way to our volcanic region, could it be that you only want to be an insignificant soldier?"
Leon continued, "Hehe. According to my guess, you're probably here for the title of the Five Dragon Generals, right? You're lucky. It just so happens that Kanan, that reckless fellow, went to challenge the Flame Emperor's position. Now that you've killed him with your own hands and displayed your strength, I'll recommend you to His Majesty. Who knows, His Majesty may feel delighted and give you the open spot in the Five Dragon Generals?"
After a pause, Dark Knight Leon raised his head and looked at the valley that blocked his view. He asked, "However, I remember that the order I gave you was to kill everyone who was with Kanan. Where are the other corpses? You let them escape?"
Zhang Yun said coldly, "They're just a bunch of kids with no weapon in their hands. You also want me to kill them?"
Dark Knight Leon lowered his head and sighed helplessly when he heard this.
Then, he smiled like a madman and raised his head again.
"Hahaha... Hahahaha… You want to be one of the Five Dragon Generals, but you can't even lay your hands on a bunch of children. If you don't even have this bit of awareness, I advise you to give up your previous thoughts! In this world! Kindness will only become your weakness! It will cost you your life. Do you understand? Kid!"
Dark Knight Leon turned around and looked at the group of knights in heavy black armor.
"You knights! Go! Kill those escapees who are about to escape! They shouldn't have gone far! Remember... There are a total of 32 people. All of whom are the remnants of the Maple Leaf Clan. I want you to kill all of them and bring back their bodies! Otherwise! I'll take your heads off and feed them to the Fire Dragon! Is it clear?"
The heavy-armored knights replied in a loud voice, "Yes, Lord Leon!"
After the heavy-armored knights heard the order, they all slapped the buttocks of the military horses they rode on. They charged at full speed toward Zhang Yun's back. They quickly passed Zhang Yun, who stood still in the same place.
The Dark Knight Leon looked at Zhang Yun. Ten Shadow Soldiers surrounded him, with a smile on his face.
"Come on, kid, tell me how you got rid of Kanan..."
However, before he could finish his words, Zhang Yun suddenly raised his right hand and clenched it. His palm released tons of black mist that quickly seeped into the surrounding soil.
"Activate skill! Summon...the Dark Shadow Legion!"
Dark Knight Leon was the first to notice that something was wrong. He quickly pulled out his specialized weapon, the 'Dark Cursed Spear', and pulled the reins of his black horse. He tried to make it turn around and leave Zhang Yun.
"You!? Plotted against me?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, various Shadow Soldiers suddenly stood up from the ground, like countless black undead that crawled out of their graves.
They pulled out the longswords made up of black shadows and fearlessly surrounded the enemies. They stopped Dark Knight Leon who planned to turn around and retreat. As well as the group of heavy-armored knights who had not yet realized what was going on.
However...
The strength of these Shadow Soldiers enthralled Dark Knight Leon when he saw it.
However, he took the initiative to pull the reins of the black horse and stopped his retreat. He turned around to face Zhang Yun again and revealed a strange smile.
"So you still have such a hidden card? Interesting!
"Let me see if you, a guy who wants to become one of the Five Dragon Generals, have the strength to challenge the Five Dragon Generals! Eh?"
Suddenly…
"I'm dying of laughter! You can't be thinking that I'm alone, right? Kanan! It's time! Don't let me down on your ability to control the details of the battle!"
Kanan didn't let Zhang Yun down.
As one of the Five Dragon Generals who passed through hundreds of battles, he was very clear that Dark Knight Leon's focus was completely occupied by Zhang Yun and the Shadow Soldiers. It was like an unguarded fly on the wall. It was the best time for Kanan to sneak attack and seriously injure Leon.
And so.
Kanan hid under the blood-poured cloth to observe the situation. He suddenly burst out. He grabbed the red sword that he hid under the blood-poured cloth, and his whole body turned into a red meteor. He suddenly rushed toward Dark Knight Leon from the right side of the back and slashed his sword at his black warhorse.
A strong wind blew.
Dark Knight Leon turned around in shock.
"Kanan? You're not dead yet?!"
The only response he got was the murderous shout of Hero Kanan.
"Profound... Blue Sky!"
'Bang! Bang!'
