117.Chapter 117: Faith, Killing, Feasting
A few of the "Pit Viper Cross" killers who were close together didn't understand what was happening at this moment - they just saw Gallup suddenly pounce forward, and his head hit the inside of the "Shadow Shield" that didn't have time to follow, and then his whole body bounced back and fell to the ground silently...
In such a picture, the blood splashed out like a fountain directly stained the entire "Shadow Shield", and then sprinkled on the ground due to the disappearance of the shield.
After turning his gaze to the ground, the people around him discovered an astonishing fact: Gallup, who was still smiling a few seconds ago, had a hole in his chest blasted open - his heart disappeared entirely, and when he looked over, he could even see the blood-soaked ground directly through his chest.
Gallup died, without warning, and most people didn't even see what he was attacking.
At the same moment, the "Shadow Guard", who had already slashed the scimitar down, was directly out of shape due to Gallup's death - the Shadow Blade slashed through the bodies of Rubens and Benjamin, but it failed to cause any damage to the two old men...
Because of the caster's death, they lost their original attack power and turned into a black mist in the next two seconds...
The situation on the battlefield began to turn around in an instant.
Sitting on the ground, Rubens was stunned for a moment, and immediately stood up with a roll, and the scepter in his hand successively cast several "holy shields" on the guards who were trying to get closer, and shouted hoarsely: "Surround me! Fight back!"
Benjamin, who was stunned, immediately threw out three or four "recovery techniques" and looked at a long arrow that landed not far from his feet......
The crimson feathers, the adjusted and polished arrows, although the arrows have disappeared, Benjamin still recognizes at a glance that this is an arrow that only "rosecross" sells!
Something seemed to come to mind in his mind, but he couldn't connect the information because of the chaotic situation in front of him, the magic was desperately released, Benjamin desperately tried to let more soldiers recover their strength and injuries, and in this process, the bald strong man who had been injured a lot roared angrily, and he was about to rush over the corpse of Gallup, but as soon as he took two steps, a loud shout not far away made him turn his head violently...
"Die!"
A simple and decisive word, accompanied by a short spear that was thrown.
The bald man turned his head and found the short spear, and immediately swung his fist to block, and the fist of the "gladiator" did not lose any weapons, so at this time he had the confidence to shoot the short spear directly away... But the actual result was far beyond his imagination - although the fist hit the short spear and knocked it out, his body was directly lost its center of gravity by a huge countershock!
He raised his head in astonishment and looked into the distance, trying to find out who threw the short spear, but he didn't know that a black shadow had already shot in...
"Poof!"
The body of more than two hundred catties was directly pierced through the chest by a short spear, and the terrifying power was actually carried by his entire body three or four steps back!
And before his face was full of incredulity, and his body had not yet fallen, a third short spear pierced his neck with precision, shattering his spine, killing him before he fell!
When the strong man was killed by three blows, Benjamin was strangely aware that the infidels around him who were attacking like crazy were rolling to the ground silently one by one, and when he looked closely, he found that their hearts were pierced by arrows... And just as he looked up to find the archer's position, an arrow flew close to his side, killing an infidels and causing Benjamin to break out in a cold sweat...
"This archery..."
His whispering was interrupted by the horse's hooves, and when he turned his head to look, a group of cavalry had already broken through the congested human wall, rushing towards here, and the knight at the front was dressed in silver armor, carrying a backpack with a short spear behind him, his eyes under the helmet were calm and sharp, and he was holding a metal three-edged cavalry spear of astonishing weight.
The rare war horse, which was one size larger than an ordinary military horse, rushed through the road of nearly 100 meters in the blink of an eye, and the heavy cavalry spear threw out phantom shadows, and the enemy's dodge and evasion were completely ineffective - more than seven "Pit Viper Cross" killers flew out upside down, and their heads and chests exploded directly under the heavy blow...
The knights were followed by servants and infantry, all of whom were extremely powerful, and the infidels in the entire square suddenly began to be "crushed" in various ways, and with the influx of four late Templar teams into the square, the defeat of the "Pit Viper Cross" was irreversible.
But at this moment, the sound of a battle in another part of the square immediately caught Benjamin's attention, he turned his head, and immediately saw Sally hiding behind the mercenaries, and immediately waved his hand and said, "Go and stop them!
More than a dozen Templar guards rushed towards Sally's team, followed by a bunch of Templars - this momentum immediately made Sally's assassin mercenaries uncomfortable, but it also deprived Francis, who wanted to take advantage of the situation, the best chance to sneak attack!
He stopped in a fit of rage, his face was terribly worse - he didn't know why it was happening... Why did the Shadow Priest, who looked so powerful, die in such a good way?!Why did the "Rosicrucifix" come to help Sally at this time!?
Francis would never have imagined that it was only a "bursting arrow" that destroyed all his plans.
But the battle did not end there, Sally who was besieged by the mercenaries kept retreating, she had been waiting for the temple for a long time, but after looking at Francis, who was full of madness and hideousness, she remembered what Roddy had said to her at the beginning - the dice on her fingertips were suddenly clenched, she gritted her teeth and made a decision in her heart, immediately turned around and jumped into the carriage brought by the mercenaries in disguise, shouting: "Get out of here! Go to the West Gate!
Francis, who had almost given up on assassination, heard her order clearly, immediately raised his eyebrows, turned his head and whispered to his men: "Prepare horses for me at once, go to the West City Gate!"
After saying this, he turned to shout at the group of mercenaries he had hired to kill Sally: "You scum, dare to besiege Sally!
In the explosion of the fireball, Francis tilted his head to confirm that the formidable knight of Titus not far away heard this, and his heart was relieved, and then despite the fact that he was "injured", he hacked all the "assassins" to death with his men, and then disappeared around the street corner under the escort of his servants.
In the distance, Titus, who was holding a three-edged war spear in his hand, stabbed and hacked one heathen after another to death, and his eyes glanced faintly into the distance, and in the noisy battlefield, no one heard a cold snort under the helmet.
At the same time, in the crowd scattered nearly 100 meters away, Roddy, who was holding the "Attack Bow", reached out and pulled up his hood, and his figure was hidden in the shadows, as if he had never participated in this battle.
......
In the middle of the city square, the arrival of Knight Titus and Hu Cong's subordinates directly destroyed the confidence of the "Viper Cross" killers to resist, and by the time the four teams of more than 80 Templars arrived, the "Viper Cross" had completely lost its ability to resist.
"Lord Overseer, those heretics..."
A guard ran over to report to the Exgere, referring to Akasha and her men, who had not been involved in the battle, let alone attacked, because they had been retreating since the beginning of the battle. When Rubens heard his question, he immediately remembered that he was "plotted" by Akasha, and immediately waved his hand and said: "All detained, wait until the incident is over!"
"They may bounce back..."
"Force can be used, all of them can be detained, and no one should be missing!"
Rubens flicked the sleeves of his robe and gave the order to die.
The guard trotted away, and after a long time when the wounded on the battlefield were almost gone, the Overseer turned to see Benjamin bending over to examine Gallup's wounds.
"What did you find?"
"He's ...... Killed by an arrow. ”
Benjamin held an arrow shaft in his hand, stared at the large wound in the bowl, and regardless of the bloody gas from the pavement, he reached out and picked up the scorched fragments of Gallup's back, "A precise arrow, with a burst effect, it should be... 'Burst Arrows' produced by the Temple. ”
"Arrows, how is that possible?"
Rubens was stunned for a moment - he was still swearing to Benjamin that he didn't need to let the guards load bows and arrows, and when he heard this fact, he couldn't help but have some unspeakable emotions in his heart, he didn't believe it... That Gallup, who was known as "tricky and powerful" in the "Temple", could have been killed by an arrow in such a situation?
"Could it be a mistake?"
Benjamin shook his head, just about to answer something, but the Temple guards on the other side clashed in order to subdue those Akasha and his men, there were shouts and screams, and soon the Templars rushed over, and the situation was immediately controlled, and the captain of the knights at the head quickly rushed over and bowed his head to plead guilty: "Lord Overlord, our team was surrounded by a group of mercenaries on Third Avenue, if it weren't for Knight Titus..."
He briefly explained the reason for being late, and Rubens realized that there was someone else who was hindering the cavalry - apparently, his elaborate plan was directly ruined by the obstruction of an unknown force... When he remembered this, he was especially grateful for the arrow that had killed Gallup. Although it is not yet known who is helping him, his role in changing the entire situation of the battle is undeniable.
Because without this arrow, Rubens and Benjamin would have been killed directly, the morale of the Temple guards would have collapsed, and the "Rosicrucian" would have left an extremely humiliating mark in history!
Thinking of this, Rubens breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the knight in silver armor who arrived first, and asked Benjamin, "Who is he?"
"It's the knight of Titus, the Duke of Angmar's most powerful subordinate, I didn't expect him to be here..."Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief, he was also choked by the intensity of the battle, but when he mentioned the name, he remembered something else, and said to himself: "Could it be that Duke Angmar he..."
Rubens didn't have time to listen carefully to what he deduced, at this time, the city square where thousands of people had gathered had been bleeding, and the dead and wounded were everywhere, and after such a bloody conflict was over, the "Rosacecrucian" had too much to do, so he ignored the exhaustion of his body, and began to direct the on-site dispatch with his scepter.
It didn't take long for the guards at the end of the battle to report the news of "Akasha's disappearance", which made the Exgere's face suddenly gloomy, and he immediately issued a cold order that "it must be recovered, whether it is dead or alive".
The battle in the square came to an end, but at the same moment, the conflict between Francis and Sally broke out again...
