Chapter 43: The Fall

Redwood watchtower, top of the tower.

Yusher held the shield in front of him, half of his body behind the shield, and his entire face was only above the eyes, so that he could see what was going on behind the shield.

With Yusher's way of raising his shield, no matter whether Rhodes attacked with a sword or chose to use a spell, it would not have much effect.

Yusher was still slowly stepping forward. Originally, the distance that could be reached by a few arrows between the two of them seemed incomparably long at this time.

Yuser knew very well that the other party had no way out. In this case, Uther did not choose to attack first, but chose this way of pressing forward, forcing the opponent to show his flaws.

In Yusser's point of view, as he pressed forward, the enemy also took a few steps back in order to keep his distance, and the whole person almost stuck to the guardrail on the side.

Seeing that the enemy was already approaching the edge of the watchtower, Yusher knew that the opponent would not let him approach like this, and when he reached a certain distance, the opponent would react, whether it was moving to the side or attacking himself, these actions would expose his flaws.

Just wait for the opponent to reveal the flaw, and Uther can knock the opponent down with a single blow.

Although the current distance can be directly attacked, Yusher is obviously unwilling, and it is more secure to wait for the enemy to show his flaws.

Just as Yousher expected, as Yousher pressed forward step by step, the distance between the two gradually shortened, and Rod didn't choose to move to both sides as if he couldn't bear the pressure, but shot first, leaned forward, and stabbed at Yusher with a sword at the same time.

As soon as Rod's footsteps moved, Uther realized that Rod's preparation for attack, and saw Rod's attack, Uther aimed his shield at the direction where Rod's stabbing came, regardless of whether Rod's sword could be pierced or not, it revealed a lot of flaws.

Yuser completely watched these movements of Rhodes, and the veteran fighter's rich combat experience allowed him to react correctly at the first time.

Rhodes also knew that his attacks would not work, and he was only doing so in search of opportunities. Rhodes retracted as he was about to stab Uther's shield, his body retracting backwards.

Just as Rhodes was just recruiting, Uther also moved.

Yuser stepped forward directly to the side, and the shield in his hand slammed in Rhodes' direction, trying to knock the enemy down while he was unable to move because of the recruitment. Yusher gripped the weapon in his other hand, ready to attack at any moment.

Obviously, Rhodes had anticipated the possible reaction of Uther when he made his move, and before the sword could be retracted, he dodged to the side, dodging in the direction of the hand that Uther was wielding his shield.

Avoided the impact of Yusher's shield, but Rhodes was still on the edge of the top of the tower. Rhodes had just finished dodging, and before he could stand still, Uther followed, sweeping with a sword.

Rhodes swung his sword to meet him, blocking Yusher's attack, and was about to swing his sword again, when Yusher's shield smashed into Rhodes again, and Rhodes had no way to parry, so he could only roll to the side.

Facing heavily armed warriors, Rhodes may not have much advantage by relying on swordsmanship alone, and if he wants to win, he still needs to find an opportunity.

After the roll, Rhodes was still on the edge of the tower, but in a different place. He was about to respond to Yusher's next attack, but found that Yusher did not attack, but stood in place with his shield in hand, his face a little ugly compared to before.

It turned out that at the same time as Rhodes rolled to avoid Yusher's shield, Yusher hit the air with a blow, and the shield hit the guardrail on the side, watching the wooden guardrail fall down, Yusher instinctively felt fear the moment he retracted his strength, and failed to continue the pursuit.

However, Yuser is a veteran warrior, and he instantly adjusted his state and prepared to continue pressing towards Rhodes.

With Yusher's shield in front of him, Rhodes couldn't find an opportunity to attack, but Rhodes also sensed that even Yusher, who was generally dominant, still had a fear of death.

Watching Uther raise his shield again and advance towards him, Rhodes knew that the enemy had chosen the safest way, and would not show any flaws to himself, and if he wanted to defeat the enemy in front of him, he needed to create opportunities for himself.

Rod realized that in this environment, Yousher, who had a big advantage, still wanted to kill himself safely, instead of rushing up and relying on his powerful attributes to fight hard with himself.

This kind of caution of Yuser may seem to be a good behavior in normal times, whether it is the choice of the merchant group or the choice in battle, but being too cautious has become Yusher's weakness at this time. Thinking of this, Rhodes knew that maybe he could find an opportunity.

Watching Yusher advance again, Rhodes held the sword in one hand, facing Yusher's direction, and with the other hand hanging down, several objects appeared in his hand, and then slammed into Yusher's head.

Yuser noticed Rod's actions, and his previous combat experience made Uther understand that people with spatial rings may carry some hidden weapons that are convenient for sneak attacks, and seeing Rod's movements, Uther naturally classified Rod's actions into this category.

Looking at the object that was being smashed into him in the air, Yusher didn't dare to be careless, especially now that he was still on the edge of the tower. Yusher raised his shield in his hand, ready to block the hidden weapons.

The objects smashed against the shield, and the few crunching thuds of the impact made Uther feel that something was wrong.

Through the corner of his eye, Yuser saw that there were several objects on the side, flashing red in the light of the setting sun, and the weapons that were bounced off by the shield were actually just a few gold coins.

Suddenly, Uther realized something, and was about to put his shield down, only to see a bright white lightning bolt coming from under the shield. The lightning struck Yusher's body, and relying on the protection of his armor, although he did not suffer much damage, Yusher felt that most of his body was paralyzed.

In a normal battle, even if he was hit by this spell, Uther would not be too worried, and with the protection of armor and shields, even if his body was paralyzed, he would not suffer any damage during this period. But in this case, the paralysis, which was originally nothing, was fatal to Yusher.

The moment he lowered his shield, Uther also saw Rhodes' movements.

Instead of choosing to attack with a sword, Rhodes took out a shield at some point and charged at Uther.

Uther had no choice but to try to move, but was unable to move because half of her body was paralyzed, so she could only hold on to her shield and hold it in front of her body.

The shields collided, and if you relied on the basic attributes of the competition, even if Rhodes charged and crashed into Yusher, Yusher would be able to stay in place. But at this time, because half of his body was paralyzed, Yusher could not exert his strength to support it at all. Hit by Rod's full force, Uther was directly knocked backwards.

And behind him, except for a few collapsed guardrails, there was nothing.
