Chapter 59: Humility and Strength

Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "Die! ”

Facing Kane, the black greatsword was raised again......

From the accident of entering the city, running, dodging, and fighting, Rhodes is now actually the end of the crossbow, the armor is getting heavier every minute and every second, and every swing of the weapon is slower than ever

The massive blood loss made his usually awake and sharp brain slightly blurry, and several wounds continued to take away his remaining physical strength and calories with pain with exercise

But Rhodes still did not hesitate to swing his weapon again, just like a long time ago, he was still the same stubborn, never admit defeat and even a little stubborn young man

The giant sword was pressed down like a mountain with endless wind pressure and all of Rod's insistence, even on horseback, Kane felt an illusion that he was about to be split in the head, and before the blade of the sword arrived, the cold and sharp warp had already broken the small hairs on his face

Powerful like never before!

This was Kane's first feeling in a moment, he also participated in that battle personally, and he also knew that the person in front of him was seriously injured by Finn and fled, but only when he faced it himself, could he appreciate the strength of the other party

There was no time to remain reserved and angry, Kane met the mace and the sword in his hand at the same time, and the warrior's experience gave him a gut feeling that in the face of such a slash, it would be absolutely impossible to resist with one hand

The facts are also consistent with Kane's intuition, after the terrifying loud noise, the giant sword in Rod's hand was only slightly shattered, and he was forced to take a step back with his horse, and the long sword given by Leo himself even had a small notch, and the war horse under his crotch neighed a few times uneasily......

"Damn it!"

Kane was secretly cursing in his heart and was about to raise his right hand, which was a signal for everyone to attack, and Finn, Case, Anton, and even El, Tyr and others wanted to compare, compared to the identity of the knight, Kane cared more about his status as a devout Holy Light Cultist, which made him less insistent on a lot of knights, at least for besieging a blasphemous person, he would not hesitate at all......

However, Rhodes in a fighting state did not give him a chance to give orders, and in a flash of lightning, Rhodes withdrew his arm and hid his front finger on his waist, and his whole foot kicked out like a cannonball, and his shoulder armor with a hideous sharp bulge was facing Kane's war horse

Three feet of black spikes stabbed into the horse's neck, but fortunately, Kane reacted extremely quickly under the combat instinct, and had already jumped off the horse at the moment before the horse collapsed, facing Rod's non-stop attack at all, the former Templar genius did not have time to think about other things at all, and directly began to counterattack under the drive of his body instinct

Sliding step, straight stabbing ...... The gorgeous swordsmanship that had been inherited from Aeoris bloomed again, and when viewed from the periphery of the battle circle, the black sword light seemed to be wrapped in a layer of silver glittering arc composed of fine silk threads, and it was impossible to break free......

The dense sound of metal crashing can almost make patients with similar phobias crazy, and occasionally a few drops of blood splash add to the beauty of blood and behemoth, and in just a few breaths, the two people standing in a ball quickly separated, and everything that the people around them saw was completely opposite to the previous superficial battle situation

Rhodes stood on the spot and couldn't see any new scars, the bright red and dazzling fresh blood was slowly sliding down the spine of the greatsword, a few steps away, Kane looked a little embarrassed, the mace had been shaved off the big head, only the funny metal long rod remained, and the long sword in his hand was densely cracked and looked like it could shatter at any moment

From his right shoulder to his waist and abdomen, a wound that slanted down had broken through his armor and turned out white muscles, and blood quickly gathered at his feet

Kneeling down on one knee heavily, Kane gritted his teeth and struggled a few times before he could stand up again, and Rod had already come to him with an expressionless face, and the corners of his hideous mouth pursed with disdain

"Except for the Punishment Knights, there is no difference between you and the ants at all, no matter how gorgeous and fast the sword skills are, they just look beautiful, strength is the fundamental, it is the origin and everything of this world, you won't understand this, so! Go to hell! ”

The trust in Kane before, coupled with the rapid ups and downs of the battle between the two, now although the surrounding knights have roared angrily and rushed towards them, they are definitely too late to save

Some knights had closed their eyes in despair, they couldn't imagine what kind of punishment and shame Kane would face if Kane was really killed here when Leo disappeared, Fein and others led the Knights of Punishment to dispatch, and Ardaryan received the news and was returning from outside the city with the scouts......

"No~~ Rod, is Rhodes you? Don't ......"

Just as Kane closed his eyes and waited for death, a slightly hoarse but clear and soft female voice came from the door of the church above the stairs

The commotion and shouting of the fighting outside, the running horses and the shouting alarmed the worshippers praying in the church as early as when Kane intercepted Rhodes, and in the curiosity of human nature, many people could not help but lie down at the window or door to watch everything, including Rita......

Since Rod's mysterious disappearance, this freckled girl has stubbornly come here every day, praying for his loved one, praying for his safety, and praying that he will suddenly return one day, but the girl who has not been able to defeat any gossip has almost collapsed at the first sight of the black knight

She covered her mouth with tears streaming down her face, her eyes filled with surprise and disbelief, and Rita swore that the man in front of her was the Rhodes he had been dreaming of, the boy who had been clumsy in front of him, who liked to tell him stories, and who was full of passion and ambition

Staggering and ignoring the obstruction of the church personnel, Rita frantically pushed the door and rushed out, standing on the steps to see Rhodes swinging his sword at Kane with an almost execution, which made her subconsciously shout the above words

As if time had stopped, the cold blade had touched Kane's neck but stopped suddenly, and for the first time, Rod's face showed a different expression, and he turned his head in shock, the familiar voice he did not forget for a moment even if he fell into darkness

"Rita? Rita! ”

The emaciated girl in front of him was the lover he had been thinking about for a long time, how could Rhodes at this moment still care about the enemies around him, and he could not take care of Kane in front of him, he laughed wildly, and the tears that had not been seen for a long time couldn't help but slip from the corners of his eyes

Raising his feet, Rhodes was about to rush up the steps regardless of it, and at this time, a short time finally let the knights who came to the rescue, and seven or eight knights of dawn ignored his sudden change at all, and surrounded him from all sides, swords and shields smashed at Rhodes

"No~~~"

The scene in front of her left Rita heartbroken, but she couldn't do more than scream hoarsely......

In the face of obstacles and attacks, the smile on Rod's face disappeared in an instant, his eyes bloodshot as he swung his sword again, and let out a roar like a dead beast

"Get out of here!"

Under the blow of hatred, more than half of the knights were split into two parts, and there were several more wounds on Rhodes's body again, and he desperately gasped a few times with his one-handed sword, and the black giant sword slashed at Kane, who had no ability to resist, and the remaining Knights of Dawn again......

At this moment, a piercing sound of breaking the air sounded from the back of Rod's head, and he had already lost his past sharpness with a lot of physical strength and vitality, until the last moment, Rod subconsciously turned his head in a bit of chaos, and with a dazzling brilliance, the crossbow arrow triangular armor-piercing arrow pierced into his bare neck from the side!

"Rhodes!!!! ~~~”

In the girl's heart-wrenching screams, Rhodes could no longer support his heavier body and fell heavily to the ground, and in his gradually distracting gaze, Itsef, who was barely standing with his injured leg not far away, was holding an empty crossbow in a daze......

"Damn the big bear, you're still as accurate as before......"

The voice squeezed out of his throat was so faint that no one could hear it, lying on the cold snow, Rhodes stared straight into the air, the sunlight was a little dazzling and a little warm, and as the life force passed, the blood color of his pupils slowly faded and revealed the original clear ice blue again

As if he had sensed, as soon as he turned his eyes slightly, a warm but trembling body pounced on him, and his palm, which was a little blue and cold under fear, carefully caressed Rod's cheek, but he didn't dare to touch the slightly trembling crossbow rod

"Rod ~ Rode, it's me Rita, woo woo ~ you talk to me, say a word, please, please, I promise whatever you say, in the future I will definitely believe in your dreams, believe everything you say, woo woo ~ "

Lying on top of Rod's cold armor, Rita, weeping bitterly, seemed to remember something, he looked up and turned his face to the large group of soldiers and knights around him

"Please, respected knight, please save him, save Rod, I have gold, I ...... I have a tavern, and I'm willing to pay whatever it takes, please......"

In the face of all this, no one could not be moved, even Kane, the most devout fanatic believer who had just been lifted up, couldn't help but turn his face away, not talking about the killing caused by Rhodes before, even if they wanted to, there was no way, unless the gods came in person, no one could save his life under this injury

Perhaps feeling the silent rejection or indifference of others, Rita lowered her head again after pleading to no avail, the blood from the corners of her cracked eyes slowly dripped down and made the clear tears become turbid, he lowered his head and gently stroked Rod's face and suddenly smiled, leaned down and kissed the other party's dry lips lightly and said softly

"Am I beautiful, Rod?"

Barely moving his eyeballs, Rod barely managed to squeeze out an inaudible sound

"Of course Rita, you will always be ...... in my heart"

"I love you, I swear I won't let you go again this time no matter what!"

"I love you too, but I'm sorry Rita ......"

Time passed by seconds, and in this way, in the skewed sunset, countless soldiers and knights watched a thin girl hug the black-armored knight in front of her with all her strength, crying and laughing madly, but did not let go of the palms that were clenched to each other for a moment......

In front of the magnificent Cathedral of the Holy Light, there was a silence like death except blood......
