Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Broken Poppy

Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Twenty-five meters!! Shoot ......"

The Stormwing crossbowmen with cold faces and steady arms, no one knew what their legion leader had thought in a short moment, and they didn't care about the identity of the person in front of them, for these veterans, the best enemy was the dead enemy, and the rest had nothing to do with them!

As the order was given, they pulled the trigger of the hardwood-clad iron almost simultaneously, and fifty freed crossbow bolts made a scalp-tingling buzz in the air

At this distance, the crossbow bolts with terrifying potential energy were the most terrifying weapons, and even the heavy knights' full-body armor could hardly resist their penetration, not to mention, most of these veterans were not targeting Rhodes, but the sorrowful silver horse under his crotch

History is always a coincidence, similar to when Itsev rescued Rhodes, in the face of the onslaught of the knights, the skilled shooters still chose their mounts instead of the knights themselves, but the difference is that the last time it was to save people, and this time it was for a better strangulation......

The dense crossbow bolts shot out flat, forming a fan in the air and then crossing a short distance, almost becoming a cone when they appeared in front of Rod, although they inevitably collided with each other, but made people lose all space to dodge

"Ah~ahhh

At the moment when he saw the crossbowman fire, Rode's heel also kicked violently into the stomach of the war horse with all his strength, and at the same time, he also pulled out the weapon on his waist again, and the thick and huge black sword seemed to be weightless under his full swing, and a black phantom similar to a barrier was formed in front of him

The next moment, the sound of the greatsword and the crossbow bolts carrying the wind was endless, but even if Rhodes had used all his strength, he could not guarantee to intercept all the attacks

The only thing that could be done was that Rhodes used all his energy to protect his head, which was not protected by a helmet, and the rest of his body parts tried to dodge with irregular movements while being slightly negligent, and curled his body on horseback as much as possible to reduce the possibility of being hit

Even so, in the continuous muffled and shattering sounds, Rod's body was still shot by several crossbow arrows one after another, under the potential energy and sharp metal arrows, even the heavy armor unique to the terrifying knight on his body could not be completely neutralized, at least three crossbow arrows broke through the armor, and the short body was like a leech that smelled blood, nailed to his waist, ribs and left shoulder

If Rod's injuries under self-protection are still acceptable, the knight of dawn horse he snatched under his crotch has no chance of escaping as the target of the target

More than twenty crossbow arrows easily pierced through the silver horse armor, and on the battlefield, it could only defend against stray arrows and light sharp weapons chopping horse armor, and there was no protection at all under the direct fire at this distance

"Puff ......"

Barely audible to the intermittent sound of entering the flesh, this one-ton tall and well-blooded war horse only had time to let out an unwilling neigh, and fell forward on its knees with its front hooves in the middle of a high-speed run

At the same time as the sudden inertia threw out Rhodes, the huge body of the war horse also rolled and rushed into the array of storm wings, if the front was hit by the armored war horse like this, the consequences would definitely not be much better than the battering ram directly smashing it

Fortunately, after the shot, the Stormwings crossbowmen, who had already expected this, had quickly dispersed to the sides, and apart from causing some commotion and two slower-paced unlucky ones being knocked straight into the air, the others were not affected much

Although there was some surprise, the black figure on the ground was quickly getting up, but the tenacity of his character made Itsev make a quick decision, stepping on the crossbow arm with one foot to rewind it, and roaring with his mouth

"The rear row is ready for the second shot, and the front row is replaced with melee fighting equipment!"

Here you can clearly distinguish the difference between the veteran and the new soldier, no one questioned or complained, just as Itsev finished speaking, the crossbowmen who had previously belonged to the back row retreated again, pulling away for the crossbow to be wound, while the soldiers in the front row did not hesitate to throw away the crossbow in their hands, and at the same time took off the small round shield on their backs, the broadsword used to defend themselves on the waist was already in their hands

Perhaps Leo would be very pleased to see this with his own eyes, he originally created Stormwings with the intention of having such a heavy crossbowmen, they are kings at medium and close ranges, and have the ability to fight in no way weaker than ordinary infantry

But......

They were faced with Rod, a powerful knight who had been dubbed the Knight of Terror as a human, and even in the upgraded Knights of Punishment, his strength was enough to be called the best of them except for the three captains......

Now, the beast has become even more insane and brutal after being injured......

Grabbing the giant sword in his hand that had fallen from his horse, Rhodes rolled over, as if he didn't care about his body's ability to bear it, and casually broke the wooden pole of the crossbow bolt that was deeply inserted into his body, and let the blood gush out from his shoulders, waist, and ribs, and his pupils suddenly flashed with a tyrannical dark gray of death

Shields shattered, swords broken, limbs scattered like rag dolls in the sunlight that peeked out at some point, cheap blood splattered and squandered everywhere, and for the first time since the establishment of Stormwind, the sacred land in front of the Cathedral of Light was desecrated by the smell of blood

The interception array of more than twenty people did not cause a trace of delay to Rhodes at all, leaving the long-range attack that he was best at, facing an opponent who would be killed in an instant even by the champion swordsman, the crossbowmen of Stormwings had the spirit of fighting and fighting to the death, but lacked the most critical strength

When the last soldier slowly knelt down with the corpse of the short sword in his hand, except for Itsev, the rest of the crossbowmen had not even finished preparing for the second round of shooting, and they were bending down to pull the heavy crossbow strings, but they were facing an enemy who was close at hand, terrifying like a demon god......

Five minutes...... Perhaps, this elite Stormwings team was wiped out except for Itsef, and his escape was not because of Rhodes' nostalgia or mercy, but because the other party was too anxious to waste time

Holding the deep bone-visible wound on the outside of his thigh, Itsev tore off his cloak and fell to the side to prepare for his own bandage, seeing the back of Rhodes running forward in a hurry, his eyes finally rested on the magnificent figure of the Cathedral of the Holy Light, and he seemed to understand something when he remembered the past......

A few more minutes passed, and just as Itsev was barely dragging his injured leg in the direction of the church, Rhodes, who was running wildly, had to stop, and the white stairs leading to the Cathedral of the Holy Light were in front of him, but it was like a moat for him at this moment......

Kane Hugh Lancelot did not hide the disgust and resentment on his face at all, and led people to track all the way but finally returned here again, which made him feel irrepressible humiliation, not to mention, not far from him, the ground was covered with blood, severed limbs and internal organs, and the evil heretic with bloodstained black armor in front of him, these blasphemys made him tremble, and there was boundless killing intent in fear!

"Kneel down the infidels before the Light, you have only two choices, resist! Then be slain by us, surrender and repent! And then burned to death in the judgment house! There is no possibility of forgiveness in what you have done! ”

Kane, with a mace in his left hand and a sword in his right, roared in a tone that could not be refuted at all

"Hehehe~Haha~Hahahaha!"

Without taking a step back, Rod suddenly burst out laughing wildly, so that the wound that had just stopped bleeding burst again, and he didn't look at Kane and the dozen Dawn Knights behind him, he lowered his head and slowly pulled out the arrows that were deep in the muscles with his fingers

Indifferently shook the blood between his fingers, Rod raised his head slightly, and there was no emotion that still belonged to human beings in his eyes, and slowly roared a word out of his mouth

"Dead !!"

The Terror Knight once again dragged his tired body and rushed forward with his sword without hesitation......
