Chapter 173 Bernie's Ambition

"Did you plan all this in advance?" Herbert had given up hope. He never expected that this seemingly lucrative mission would lead to the annihilation of the Fourth Apostle's team.

He never expected that he would die on the road before he could return to the family in a legitimate way. Looking back on the nonsense he said when he was young and hot-headed, it was so ridiculous.

The effect of gravity magic had been suppressing Herbert's body. He was already seriously injured after being hit by Greg's punch and was completely unable to use the Phantom Ghost Step in this environment. He could only watch Greg's sturdy figure getting closer and closer.

Feeling unwilling to give in, Herbert questioned Greg, "Did you plan all this long ago? You want to replace Man Tu as the fourth apostle!"

"The Fourth Apostle?" Greg said indifferently: "Bernie never cares about this kind of thing."

After saying this, he threw a punch with all his strength, destroying all the functions of Herbert's body.

From then on, except for Sabina who was in a coma, the Fourth Apostle's team was completely wiped out.

Lauren, Ambrose and others were all shocked by Bernie's behavior.

If he treats his companions like this, it is not difficult to imagine how cruel he will be to his enemies. In the minds of Lauren and others, the danger level of this seemingly young Fifth Apostle has increased by at least two levels.

"Finally I solved a small problem. How about it, everyone, are you interested in submitting to me?" After solving the problem of Man Tu, Bernie smiled and sent out invitations to the 'Valkyrie' and the 'Glorious Knight'.

"In my opinion, you are much better than that big fool Man Tu. If you promise to obey me, I will spare your lives." Bernie said in a condescending tone.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not used to being someone's subordinate, let alone a boss who might stab you in the back at any time." Ambro rejected Bernie's request indifferently.

His words represented the will of the 'Glorious Knights', and Einbert and the others did not object.

For adventurers like them, they would rather die in the hands of monsters than become the pawns of these terrorists. What's more, Bernie is not an ordinary terrorist.

Become his subordinate? Come on, that's not how jokes are told.

As for Lauren, there was no need to ask, because the magic spear she was waving had already given her the answer.

"Really? It's a pity that I have to kill one of the best adventurers in the Kendenia Empire, as well as Her Highness the Third Princess, here."

"Don't give him the chance to use the magic sword, attack together." Lauren said in a deep voice to Rosa and Ambro.

In the battle between the fourth and fifth apostles just now, the magic sword Kruvim absorbed all the magic power of two high-level magics and one great magic. If it was released at once, Lauren's side would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Therefore, the magic sword must be sealed to prevent Bernie from having the opportunity to use it.

"Phantom Speed."

Six Rosa figures suddenly surrounded Bernie, including Rosa's real body, and they launched continuous attacks on Bernie at the same time.

At the same time, Ambro and Lauren also joined the battle.

Three to one! The Royal Valkyrie holding the magic spear, Ambro, the leader of the 'Glorious Knights', and Rosa, the glory-level thief, are all outstanding among humans, at the top, and even Lauren has faintly surpassed this limit.

The original Bernie could not fight against three people at the same time.

But that was only in the past. After obtaining the divine relic, Bernie could ignore any attacks from the outside world and attack with all his might. In addition, the large amount of magic power that the magic sword had just swallowed was fed back into his body, which improved Bernie's physical fitness to an extreme, which was no worse than that of the extraordinary ones.

That's why he was able to accomplish such a miraculous feat, fighting against three top human warriors on his own. Bernie was in dire straits, but the other side was not far behind.

Einbert and his men once again fought with those under Bernie.

Originally, with the presence of Sigri, they could have easily won, after all, the difference in strength between the two sides was quite large. However, Evely and Casey saw this point and kept casting magic on the people of the Eroyeken family to divert Sigri's attention. Einbert and others could not stand by and watch these people die, and some of their energy was also diverted.

So the two sides were able to maintain a stalemate.

However, they all knew that the final victory or defeat would still depend on the battle group in the center of the training ground.

"Hahaha, very good, very good, is this the feeling of being invincible? It's wonderful!"

Bernie laughed loudly while fighting. Yes, he was still able to handle the attacks of three powerful men with ease. This was the incredible power brought to him by the divine relic.

At this moment, Bernie was extremely glad that he had made the right choice.

"Tsk, what a troublesome guy."

Lauren found an opening and stabbed Bernie in the body with a gun, but only a spark was created on the golden armor.

"Even the magic spear can't cause any damage." Ambro was a little helpless when he saw this.

The opportunity that was created with great difficulty was ineffective. It would be futile to continue like this, because with the magic power boost stored in the magic sword, Bernie's physical strength could always be maintained at the best level, while their physical strength was slowly declining, even the effect of 'physical strength continuation' was weakening.

In the end, the three of them might be dragged to death by Bernie.

"Let's reorganize the situation first." Ambro whispered.

Loren and Rosa nodded and agreed with him. There would be no result if they continued fighting like this. They had to find a way to break the defensive effect of the divine relic.

"What? After seeing how powerful I am, have you changed your mind and are willing to submit to me?" Seeing the three men suddenly withdraw, Bernie did not chase them and was still trying to recruit them.

If he could bring both the 'Valkyrie' and the 'Glorious Knight' under his command, then the first step of his ambition would be perfectly achieved.

"Bernie Brarick, what exactly do you want to do? Just to take Nelise away?" Lauren wanted to get some valuable information.

"Goddess singer? That's one of the goals." Bernie said with a smile.

"My ultimate goal is to unify the human kingdom." Bernie's eyes flashed with enthusiasm, and he said passionately: "Become the king of the human world!"

"The king who rules the world?" Lauren sneered, "Are you crazy? You actually have such a daydream."

Putting aside the question of whether the human kingdom can be unified, ruling the world is not such a simple matter. Even humans are just one of many races in the world, and they have no individual advantage over races like elves. Not to mention elves, even the werewolves who live next to the human kingdom completely crush humans in terms of physical fitness.

Even if Bernie got a divine relic, it would be a fantasy to achieve that. If it weren't for the existence of the Holy See, the human kingdom would have been divided up by many alien races who were eyeing it covetously. After all, many alien races regarded humans as the most delicious food.

"It seems that we can't understand each other after all, so please die." Bernie finally began to use the power of the magic sword.
