Chapter 218 Shattered Egg (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_2
It was mainly because the enemy didn’t know how he had killed the first Knight, so, tactically, they had been at a disadvantage in a straightforward confrontation.
Seeing his second Great Knight fall in battle, Nehru was both shocked and enraged!
What he hadn’t expected was that the young Great Knight who had originally charged at him would turn to attack his Great Knight instead, thereby relieving the Sea Serpent squad of their predicament.
Weren’t young people supposed to be hotheaded?
Damn it, this was even more cunning than an old fox!
At this moment, the battle situation had deteriorated!
With Rein’s intervention and the death of two enemy Great Knights, the battle quickly slipped into chaos.
The Sea Serpent squad rapidly extricated themselves from their bind, while their captain, Baron, swiftly charged towards the Witchery Curses Master controlling the giant stinger-spine sea serpent.
Rein glanced over and silently praised him.
Baron’s tactical awareness was very strong indeed, befitting the leader of the Empire’s Navy Special Combat Squad.
Baron pressed forward, engaging the enemy’s Witchery Curses Master, while the remaining members of the Sea Serpent squad and Rein began to besiege the other two Great Knights controlling the stinger-spine sea serpents.
The tide of the battle was turned in an instant!
At that moment, a special pale blue mystic side energy enveloped him, and suddenly, he felt his whole body lighten, and his speed increased by twenty percent.
Rein glanced sideways and saw that Nathaniel, who had stopped their spar prematurely before, had cast a buffing witchcraft “Gale of Swiftness” on him; he was now on the coral reef, quickly greeting him with a nod.
Almost simultaneously, another member of the Sea Serpent squad cast a defensive witchcraft on Rein—Water Membrane Technique. A faint blue glow appeared on Rein again, revealing a thin, light blue water membrane on his body surface.
Rein nodded at the Sea Serpent squad and without any delay, quickly rushed towards another Federation Great Knight.
Nehru atop the giant stinger-spine sea serpent knew he had to make a decision at this moment!
But quickly, he looked up into the distant sky, seeming to sense something, and frowned!
Suddenly, the giant stinger-spine sea serpent beneath him took a deep breath, and a skyful of corrosive liquid was spewed out.
This forced the Sea Serpent squad and Rein to halt their offensive moves and quickly evade.
When the foul-smelling venom began to disperse, where was the figure of the enemy on the sea’s surface?
So decisive?
Rein was taken aback!
The enemy’s retreat was too resolute.
“It’s the Plesiosaur Squad’s Bald Eagle!” a member of the Sea Serpent squad pointed out towards the horizon.
A giant raptor was approaching from the horizon, its white plumage exceptionally conspicuous.
It seemed that because the situation was against them, and there were other Empire squads nearby, the Federation Witchery Curses Master quickly gave up the thought of continuing the fight, Rein speculated silently.
With the end of the battle, the curses from the enemy Witchery Curses Master began to dissipate automatically over time.
The Sea Serpent squad quickly administered hydrotherapy and healing potions to their severely injured teammate, stabilizing the injury soon after.
And Vinica, after the Pain Curse gradually faded, approached the coral reef.
Then, Captain Baron also came over, wiping the fresh blood from his mouth, and looked seriously at Rein, saying, “Baron Rein, thank you for your assistance; otherwise, our squad might have suffered heavy losses this time.”
Baron, you’re too kind, defending the sea borders is not only the duty of the Empire’s navy, I, as the governor of Fishing Port Town, also have a responsibility,” Rein replied.
The other members of the Sea Serpent squad also stepped forward to express their gratitude to Rein.
The Sea Serpent squad’s attitude was much warmer than when they had been in Fishing Port Town.
Especially Nathaniel, who gave a self-deprecating smile and said, “Baron Rein, it turns out you did not use your full strength in our spar. My challenge to you before was indeed presumptuous!”
“Uh… Nathaniel, not at all, I really welcome the opportunity to spar with you all,” Rein said earnestly.
Sparring to gain experience and thus improve one’s occupational level panel, Rein was, of course, speaking truly.
But when the Sea Serpent squad members heard Rein’s words, they felt that despite his youth, Baron Rein had none of the arrogance of young people and had a surprisingly good temperament and character, easy to communicate with.

Immediately, they all smiled and expressed their goodwill.
After taking several doses of potions, Captain Baron’s injuries seemed to have improved a lot. Turning to Rein, he said:
“Baron Rein, I noticed the Hammer Skill you used earlier; it must be on the level of a secret technique, right?”
“Although it is very close to the power of a true secret technique, it seems to be missing something,” he continued.
Rein nodded and said, “You’re right, Captain Baron.”
Rein felt there was no harm in admitting this, as someone of Captain Baron’s calibre could almost immediately see at which level his move was.
“Baron Rein, do you know how to elevate a nearly-secret technique to a true secret technique?” Captain Baron continued to say.
Hearing the captain say this, everyone looked at the two of them with interest.
Clearly, they also discerned that the captain intended to give young Baron Rein some pointers as a form of repayment for his rescue of the squad.
