Chapter 1199: Shock, Kill
No matter how powerful a mortal is, there is a limit to his abilities, which is a fact recognized by all.
The crossbow used by the Imperial cavalry is a very well-crafted military item, and the range of the crossbow arrows fired can reach a distance of more than 300 meters and still have enough power to kill and injure the enemy.
With the dynamic vision of ordinary mortals, even the eyesight of a person at the level of a marksman is extremely difficult to capture the traces of the crossbow arrows fired by this kind of crossbow, and at most they can only see a trace of afterimage, so as to judge the flight trajectory of the crossbow arrows in hindsight.
As Melti is now showing, when the crossbow arrow flies over, it will be directly knocked out in the face, in fact, many people can do it through prediction with experience, but it is basically using something like a shield, after observing the enemy's movements, predicting the flight trajectory of the arrow in advance, and then blocking the shield and the like in advance where it needs to be defended.
However, the Imperial cavalry had already aimed at this, and in order to prevent prediction, they deliberately hid it, only taking out the crossbow at the last moment, installing the crossbow arrows and firing them as quickly as possible, in order to try not to give Melti time to observe and predict.
As long as they move fast enough, I believe that even people who are born with extremely strong reaction speed will not have time to react if they are attacked by twenty crossbows at the same time.
However, the results have been greatly unexpected by these people.
Not only did Melti succeed in knocking off the bolts that were coming at her, but she also used the slender arms of an iron-stringed bow! Not at all is the same level as when ordinary people use a large shield to resist an arrow after anticipating it. Because the Iron String Bow's arm hits so small, even a slight deviation of a few millimeters from Melti's movements will result in the inability to hit the crossbow with it.
What's even more amazing is that Merti even grabbed the crossbow arrow with her bare hand, which shocked the Imperial cavalry even more than she used the bow arm of the iron string bow to fly the crossbow arrow. Before she had performed this feat, no one had even imagined that such a thing would happen.
Both the White Rose Knights and the Imperial Cavalry were extremely experienced veterans, so they knew exactly how fast they needed to be reflexes, sharp, and delicate body control to grab crossbow arrows with their bare hands!
As long as the reaction speed is a few tenths of a second slower, or the action is slightly offset by a centimeter or two when shooting, the so-called empty-handed grasp of the arrow will immediately become a joke and directly trap yourself.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this is simply a scene that only exists in the biographical stories of wild history, and it is impossible for this kind of thing to happen in reality.
Not only because it was too difficult, but also because almost no one dared to try such a move with their own lives.
But now, this scene has indeed happened in front of their eyes, which makes the state of mind of the imperial cavalry no longer calm.
"Don't stop!Keep attacking!!"
Newman noticed that the hearts of his soldiers were beginning to waver, and he naturally did not let this thing continue, and immediately shouted angrily.
However, before his words could fall, Melti had already taken a step ahead of him and struck again, directly placing the crossbow arrow he had caught earlier on the iron string bow, and pulling the bowstring in one go and shooting it out.
The target of her arrow is to Newman himself!
And this arrow was shot too suddenly, whether it was the White Rose Knight or the Imperial Cavalry, they were still shocked by Melty's amazing performance just now, and the reaction speed was inevitably slowed down, even Newman himself was actually shocked by the scene just now, but as the leader of the cavalry, he had a very strong psychological quality and recovered much faster than other soldiers.
But even if his psychological adjustment recovers quickly, it is obviously impossible to be as fast as Melti, who was prepared too early.
This arrow was something she had calculated a long time ago. In fact, when facing the crossbow arrow just now, Merti could have grabbed it with her bare hands without risking, and the reason why she did it was to create a shocking scene that would shock the minds of the Imperial cavalry.
Even if it was only for a short time, it would be enough for her to achieve her goal.
Newman, the enemy commander, Merti naturally noticed it a long time ago, but Newman has been cautiously hiding in the rear of the cavalry team since the cavalry team began to charge, and intentionally or unintentionally used the bodies of other cavalrymen to provide cover for himself, and used the bodies of his subordinates to block Melti's sight of him, so that Melti's bow and arrow could not be aimed at him smoothly.
Because Newman himself knew very well that for a marksman with superb archery skills like Melti, once his identity was revealed, he would definitely be listed as the highest priority to kill.
That's why she is so careful to take precautions, so that it is difficult for Melti to find a chance to shoot for a while.
But now, here's your chance!
Because of the previous shock, Newman was unable to control the movement of the war horse in time, resulting in his war horse still running according to the previous inertia, while Melti caused her position to change due to the previous dodge of the crossbow arrows, and also bypassed the sight barrier formed by the Imperial cavalry.
As a result, Newman completely exposed himself to Melty's eyes this time.
And she deliberately grabbed the crossbow arrows fired by the enemy and used them directly, which directly saved the time of drawing the arrows from the quiver again, even if it was only shortened by about 0.5 seconds, the time gained was extremely critical.
Therefore, when Newman had just come back to his senses and scolded the Imperial cavalry, he did not expect a vague shadow of arrows to have swooped in front of him.
By the time he noticed this, there was already a sharp pain in his throat, and he realized that his throat had been pierced by an oncoming crossbow arrow.
"Ho-ho-......?!"
'Iā...... I'm going to die here?!"
Newman made a muffled sound and spilled a large amount of blood and bubbles, and was directly carried away from his horse by the tremendous force of the crossbow bolts fired from the iron string bow, and the man was still in mid-air, and only this thought had time to flash through his mind at the last time.
Then, he felt a sharp pain all over his body, and he was thrown to the ground, completely unconscious.
After Newman was shot down by an arrow, the thirty or so enemy cavalrymen who had survived had just reacted from his previous angry rebuke, but it was too late.
