Boom!!!
A heavy crash echoed through the air.
As the Dark Knight thrust her lance toward him, Su Mu didn't dodge. He didn't even draw the Bone Falling Moon Blade from his back. Instead, he stood there upright.
When the tip of the lance was just over a meter away from his skull, Su Mu finally moved.
His feet, encased in pitch-black armor, were firmly planted on the ground. At the same time, one of his gauntleted hands shot up like lightning and grabbed the incoming knight's lance!
This was a Dark Knight!
A Dark Knight who, like Su Mu, stood at the Warrior Tier!
This was a charge!
A charge infused with the combined power of the Dark Knight and her Skeleton Warhorse, executed through the knight skill—Charge!
One could only imagine the sheer force behind this lance.
But even so, Su Mu firmly seized the lance mid-thrust.
A sharp, screeching sound like a blade scraping glass rang out as the powerful lance clashed with Su Mu's gauntlet.
All the force from the Dark Knight and the Skeleton Warhorse seemed concentrated on that lance, pressing it ever forward, aiming right for Su Mu's eye socket.
Bit by bit.
Inch by inch.
Until—
When the cold, gleaming lance tip was only a few dozen centimeters from Su Mu's eyes, it finally stopped!
Leaving two deep footprints in the ground, Su Mu, by sheer force alone, brought a charging Dark Knight to a halt!
And then...
A massive 968 points of brute Strength erupted from within Su Mu. Gripping the black lance with both hands, he gave a fierce tug—
Boom!!!
The petite Dark Knight was ripped from her Skeleton Warhorse, spun through the air, and slammed brutally into the ground!
Dust scattered.
The Dark Knight was stunned.
Even she hadn't expected Su Mu to nullify her charge like that. Even more unthinkable—this Undead of indeterminate race, despite also being Warrior Tier, possessed such terrifying Strength and Constitution!
Hiss—
A voiceless soul wail rippled outward.
Sensing that its master had been pulled down, the muscular Skeleton Warhorse looped back and charged toward Su Mu once more.
It was trying to aid its master.
Unfortunately—
It was facing Su Mu.
One of Su Mu's hands was still gripping the lance, pinning the Dark Knight to the ground. The other reached back and drew the Bone Falling Moon Blade.
When the Skeleton Warhorse rushed in—
A flash of cold light!
With a second booming crash, the tall and sturdy Skeleton Warhorse was sent flying. Even before hitting the ground, shattered bones scattered from its body.
Su Mu hadn't aimed to kill.
When the Skeleton Warhorse attacked, he had struck it with the flat of his Bone Falling Moon Blade, sending it flying.
Otherwise—
With his current Strength and the sharpness of the Bone Falling Moon Blade, one blow would've been enough to crush the warhorse's skull!
With the Skeleton Warhorse out of the way, Su Mu turned his attention back to the Dark Knight.
Just as he suspected.
The Dark Knight was petite.
Either a young knight girl—or a female general.
Whichever it was, now that Su Mu had taken notice, this Dark Knight, full of potential, was destined to become one of Su Mu's knight underlings!
No, not an underling—but a little knight sister.
The Skeleton Warhorse had been sent flying and wouldn't recover anytime soon.
The Dark Knight, however, remained unharmed.
Even while pinned to the ground by Su Mu's overwhelming force, she continued struggling, trying to retrieve her lance and stab it into Su Mu's body.
The Talent [Erosion] was powerful.
But it had a prerequisite—it had to touch the opponent's skull.
Even if the target wasn't fully incapacitated, continuous contact between Su Mu's palm and the opponent's skull was necessary for the mysterious energy to carry out sustained Erosion.
As a member of the Death Knight race, the Dark Knight would never surrender.
Even if threatened with death, she wouldn't yield.
However...
Looking at the small body of the Dark Knight pinned beneath him, Su Mu had an amusing idea.
He didn't need to cripple her.
Nor did he need to take away her will to resist.
All he needed—
Was a constant stream of mysterious energy input!
Then—
With one hand gripping the lance, Su Mu used overwhelming force to pry it from the Dark Knight's grasp. His other hand clamped down on her skull!
And then—
He lifted her.
Yes!
This petite Dark Knight, disarmed and powerless, was now dangling in midair by the head—held aloft in Su Mu's single hand!
The Dark Knight struggled with all her might.
But unfortunately, her strength was no match for Su Mu's. She couldn't break free from his grasp. Hanging in the air, without her mount or her weapon, her short arms could barely reach Su Mu's gauntlet-covered limbs.
Just like that.
The Dark Knight flailed pitifully in midair.
And so—
At the edge of the battlefield, a strange scene played out.
A tall, black-armored warrior extended one arm, gripping the skull of a petite black-armored knight. The knight struggled desperately, but suspended in midair, her flailing arms could only leave faint white marks on the warrior's armored arms.
Ahead of them, the Bone Legion had regrouped and stood in formation. Behind them, the formidable Skeleton Warhorse was slowly reassembling.
"Erosion!"
Ignoring the Dark Knight's resistance—
With one hand holding her aloft, Su Mu released a continuous stream of mysterious energy from his body, beginning the Erosion of the black-armored knight.
