In the world of Illuson, mercenaries have never been more moral or merciful to outsiders - knowing this, Gross struck when he saw the wound Foot Crossbow.

Strike first!

It wasn't pleasant to be targeted by a crossbow - although he had a way to escape, his three companions, as well as Miss Ladia, the mage he couldn't let go of, couldn't escape from the crossbow.

He knew the power of this steel pedal crossbow.

In the game, this murderous weapon of war is an item strictly controlled by the royal family and nobility. In addition to the brutality of war, such objects are often accompanied by assassination or premeditated murder.

So, when Gross's eyes caught a glimpse of the crossbow, he was completely sure of the hostility of the other party.

It's ridiculous that the middle-aged man still wants to talk nonsense to delay time, this kind of superficial tricks may only be able to deceive naïve children, in his previous life as a player, the insidious and cunning people that Gross saw and came into contact with were far more sophisticated and complex than this.

In the dwarf pine forest, the distance of about 20 meters around the central hill does not seem to exist.

[Charge]!

Especially when the skill of charging in the snow is activated, there is a thrill like flying - the boots under his feet are like an iron plow, stepping on the snow on the ground and splashing up on both sides, and in front of Girond's eyes, the figure of Gross flashed, but it rushed towards the mercenary behind the dwarf pine.

Charge with a turn?

Not only these mercenaries of the Talon Mercenary Regiment, but also the captain of the first brigade, Helweig, and the regiment leader Ginod, stared at the time in an instant, and almost didn't let their jaws fall - they all know the warrior skill of charging, but can they still turn during this high-speed movement? They have almost never heard of such miraculous means.

Glynd remembered something.

He is forty-four years old this year, and he began his mercenary career at the age of sixteen, and after years of fighting and hard work, he finally created the Talon Mercenary Group thirteen years ago. And about the battle, all the memories and impressions in his mind if they were recorded in writing, it would be enough to compile a thick book—

This means?

A certain image seems to be coming to mind.

South of Elantra Recart Empire, the Phantom Charge of the Golden Knight!

He could barely help blurting out—

At first, Ginod thought that this young man was just a swordsman among the mountain people, but now he found that he had miscalculated, and the identity of this young man was probably not as simple as he originally thought.

He may be from some large family and mysterious organization.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain the secret technique of Phantom Charge!

He shouldn't be an Elantes, maybe a nobleman of the Recart Empire? Ginod has some knowledge of the geography of the characters south of the Ten Thousand Realms Mountains, and in the northern region of the Rekat Empire, there seem to be one or two mountain nobles.

Ginnod quickly thought of the name of that family? If that's the case, he and his mercenary group are undoubtedly in big trouble right now.

It's a pity that there is no elixir of regret in this world.

Ginnod gritted his teeth, he was convinced that today's events would not be easily resolved.

Why don't you just leave these people here? Only corpses can remain silent forever.

He stepped forward with his sword, and a senior mercenary in a high-ranking rank was undaunted by the battle. His subordinate Helvig also recovered from the shock, and loudly organized the mercenaries in the pine forest to form a temporary engagement formation.

Gross got closer and closer to the mercenaries.

Because of the snow beneath his feet, he had crossed a distance of at least fifty meters in three seconds of the charge, and the castration was still unabated. He rushed towards the mercenaries behind the pine forest, but now, a dwarf pine covered in dark green pine needles stood in front of him.

It's about to charge and crash into the tree.

In that arc charge just now, it was the first time that Gross, who came to this world, used this technique-

There was a pain in the ankle joint.

He immediately knew that it was still too reluctant to use these high-level techniques with his current character attributes. The damn dwarf pine grew bigger and bigger in his field of vision, and he gripped the Frosty Sword in both hands and swung it forward!

Exceptional weapons are hard and sharp enough, and the trunk of the dwarf pine reveals a mirror-smooth, flat cut that snaps in unison.

A mercenary who was still winding his crossbow at his feet looked horrified—he had already learned from the head of the regiment that this was a young swordsman.

The mercenary group companions around him approached to help.

War spears, swords, hooked scythes...... Some stopped in front of Gross, while others swooped down from their side. Relying on the huge inertia of the previous charge, Gross swung his sword and cut through the dwarf pine, and directly killed the crowd.

In the radar chart displayed by the system, each mercenary is at least an existence of the inauguration level, and among them, there are even three or four powerful characters of the same level as him.

The blade of the sword in Helweig's hand stabbed -

A long, sharp blade sliced through Gross's armor before stabbing into the flesh.

The tense muscles gave the sword blade a great sense of sluggishness.

As soon as he rushed into the crowd, Gross had already activated the "Iron Barbed Ring of Glory" with the special skill [Counterattack Against the Trend].

[Counter Attack] (Active): Waiver of 50% of the physical damage taken by the user within 5 seconds and record the true value, return the target with a melee physical attack after the effect time is over, cooldown: 20 minutes.

20 minutes cooldown, which means that he only has one chance to use [Counter Strike] at most in this fight.

Therefore, the use of this stunt must be used at the critical time. Gross knew that he could not back down or dodge in the face of the mercenaries armed with powerful crossbows, and he fought bravely against the mercenaries' swords.

Wisps of blood floated up from him, and the armor on his body quickly broke and shattered.

[Warrior Steel Heart]'s passive perk also accumulated two [Sword Qi Slash].

He also wears an ornament called the "Badge of Courage".

"Kill him."

Whether it was the leader of the Talon Mercenary Regiment, Ginod, the captain of the Hellwig, or the others who watched the mercenary being beheaded by a sword owl - these angry mercenaries watched the blue sword light slash the next moment, and a round human head with wide eyes rose to the sky.

Blood, bright roses bloomed in the white snow, splashing like cobwebs.

It's not just the mercenary, it's Gross.

He saw that more than half of his life had been lost.

"Mr. Gross!"

"Boss!"

Miss Mage Ladya was rushing towards him, her little face pale and with crystal tears on her face. And his companions, all with red eyes, rushed all the way towards Gross surrounded by mercenaries.

Smile.

[Counterattack against the trend] ends in 5 seconds.

[Valorant]!

Swing your sword!

[Sword Qi Slash]!
