201.Chapter 201: A Race Against Death
Time slows down when the heavy sword and the whistling hammer fall.
In a desperate situation, Roddy had no room to dodge, so he did not retreat, but immediately stepped forward and rushed forward with his weapon!
At the same time, he activated the "Tortoiseshell Protection" skill.
A few days earlier, Roddy had used his skills with the help of the "Sagas of the Snake King", but he had never felt any physical discomfort at that time. But at the moment of activating the "tortoiseshell protection", Luo Di felt as if his head had been stirred hard, and the severe headache made his eyes darken, and he almost screamed in pain-
This sharp pain is similar to the feeling when the snapping turtle has just been "domesticated", it appears instantly, and then dissipates very quickly, and in its place, it is an inexplicable force that spreads throughout the body in an instant...
The next moment, the puppet's heavy sword slashed at the short sword that Luo Di raised to block, and with a "clang" sound, the sword body was directly broken, and it smashed heavily on Luo Di's left shoulder!
And the huge chain hammer on the left side also attacked, and Roddy had no way to dodge but to raise his left arm...
His arms looked exactly like bean sprouts compared to the metal hammer head - Akasha even covered her mouth as she ran, as if she had seen Roddy smashed into a pulp.
However, after two muffled sounds, Akasha found that Roddy was still standing there, but he didn't take a step back!
The heavy sword smashed on Roddy's shoulder, and the "click" collapsed, and after the chain hammer hit Roddy's arm, it bounced back in reverse with a "bang"...
Roddy's shoulders and arms were splashed with blood, but looking at the wounds, they were only to the extent of "skin trauma", and even the bones were not broken!
Not only that, but Roddy took advantage of the situation to step forward, came to the side of the puppet and turned around directly, and immediately used the "Reflexive Strike" skill...
"Click!"
A burst of power was instantly added to the sword in Roddy's hand, and the puppet who couldn't dodge was immediately sliced two-thirds of his throat with a single blow!
But Roddy's eyes lit up... He knows very well that as long as the opponent's head does not fall off, it will never stop attacking.
Another puppet's chain hammer struck again, and the 3-second "tortoiseshell protection" was still maintained, Roddy gritted his teeth and gave up dodging, still choosing to hit hard!
"Phew!"
Once again, the hammer was ineffective, as if it had struck not flesh, but steel.
But Roddy's face is not good-looking, and seeing that the three-second time limit is about to end, he is ready to "run" and "leap" to dodge and run. But the sudden sound of horses' hooves and a loud shout in his ears made his heart flutter...
Sodrore is here.
After the scout team killed the two puppet guards, Sodrore also immediately grabbed his weapons and rode on his horse to follow, and when he saw Roddy in trouble, Sodrore directly broke into the street single-handedly, just in time to relieve Roddy!
Roddy didn't shout anything, just glanced at Sodrore who was speeding away, and swung his sword in his hand, forcing a puppet back alive, and then activated the "leap", which was able to dodge the third attack of the chain hammer.
Just when the bodies of the two puppets stiffened, Sodrol came quickly, and with a sharp swing of the long sword, the puppet whose neck was already broken immediately "clicked" and flew out directly with the escaped necromantic aura!
The remaining puppet was stunned for a moment, and then chose to continue attacking Roddy. But at this time, because of Roddy's delay, Akasha had already run away wisely, so he had no worries and immediately started a "sprint" retreat.
For a moment, the only remaining puppet had to choose to chase - Roddy ran towards Sodlore, who turned his horse's head, and when he saw the other party start again, he turned around and threw the broken sword out!
The puppet instinctively blocked, and his movements were thus flawed, Sodrol immediately seized the opportunity, his body suddenly flashed with a faint light, and he simply cut off the opponent's head with a loud shout!
Obviously, he didn't train with Wellington in vain this month, and a horizontal slash combined with "battle qi" directly ended the battle.
The two puppets took the head, and the rumbling hooves of horses in the next street also sounded at the same moment - the six iron golems that could not be done just now were overwhelmed by the "steel torrent" on the spot, and the cavalry directly crushed the puppets who had no time to resist with the powerful formation... In the face of elite cavalry, there was no suspense in this battle.
By the time Sodrore caught up with the scouts, all that was left of the street was a pile of scrap metal with missing arms and legs.
Naturally, Roddy was not idle at all, he called out to Akasha while bandaging his arm, and at the same time took her to the edge of the battlefield to treat the wounded without stopping.
The six puppets are not weak, their stubborn resistance still caused the three scouts to fall from their horses on the spot, the consequences of "falling from the horse" in this kind of rush are extremely serious, and it is normal to die directly if you are unlucky, but fortunately these three scouts did not die directly - under Akasha's timely "low-level recovery technique", they all saved their lives.
The "Low Level Healing" is a HOT (Continuous Healing) spell that costs so much that Akasha can unleash it with a slight recovery of mana - her effect is so great that Roddy is secretly glad that he made the right choice to bring her all the way here...
And when he saw that none of the scouts died and all the puppets were destroyed, Roddy finally exhaled deeply, and then sat down directly on the ground...
The gargoyle whose wings had been blown off by him was still fluttering and struggling, Wellington walked over with his long sword, raised his fist and smashed the gargoyle to the ground, then stepped on the opponent's back, and "smashed" the opponent's head with the bladed sword.
Wellington remained silent, but the gesture was a clear attempt to vent his anger.
The chaos in the town of Parr was finally over, and the town that had been bustling with activity a moment ago fell silent - most of the inhabitants had no idea what was happening, they had only heard one crash after another and crackles, and they had wanted to come out to see, but they were too frightened to open the door because of the sound of the horses' hooves as the scouts charged.
Roddy sat on the ground gasping for breath, although he recovered full health through upgrading, but the subsequent battle with the two puppets really made him suffer, but fortunately, after Akasha recovered some mana, he also released the "primary recovery technique", otherwise this pain is really unbearable.
Sodrore didn't come immediately, he patrolled the town with a squad of scouts, continuing to look for possible enemies.
Wellington threw the bladed sword aside, holding a roll of linen bandage in his hand, and silently bandaged his right hand - the bodies of the eight iron golems were too hard, and the force of the shock made the "ghost knight" a little unbearable.
"The gargoyle is blatantly attacking, and the undead should be torn apart. ”
Wellington sat down next to Roddy, straightened his scarred and muddy clothes, fastened the bandages, and said in a flat tone as usual, "What do you think?"
"It's not Magda's style, it's the necromancer's doing. Roddy frowned, staring unconsciously at the iron golems in front of him who had become scrap metal, "That letter said that Ansadine would only come in December, and if he arrived in Kieg Town early, it must have been Magda who would have come to take revenge, but- iron golems... Ansadine..."
Roddy, who was muttering to himself, was suddenly stunned, and a piece of information that was almost forgotten suddenly came to his mind - he felt familiar from the first time he saw the word "Ansadine", and then he realized that the other party was not without fame, but that his fame was left to the famous "nickname"...
An Tuhao.
"Ansadine" is a Western-style name, but Chinese gamers like to use the nickname the way they are used to. And to call Ansardin "An Tuhao" is entirely because every time this necromancer fights, he will pull a whole team of "luxurious" puppets to appear!
The puppets summoned with broken copper and iron are naturally very different from the puppets summoned with "magic weapons", and the puppets of Anssadin are all summoned with various precious materials without exception, in other words, "puppets burned by burning money" - so Ansadin was labelled with the nickname of "Antuhao", and has been known since his first appearance in 594, he has participated in many battles, and his achievements are amazing, and even face the battle between the undead and humans.
But because of this, people have almost forgotten his real name.
"It's him..."
Roddy's brows furrowed deeper and deeper - Ansadine is a "hawk" among the undead, and he has always been at odds with those "****" elders, and he is not Magda who did it to himself, which means that something must be wrong...
"If Magda regains his strength, he will definitely come here for revenge as soon as possible. ”
Roddy said this, and this was his most confident judgment at the moment.
Wellington didn't say anything, apparently the "Blighter" had left too much impression on him, it was definitely not a good stubble, and no one wanted to meet him a second time.
Roddy closed his eyes, rubbed his cheeks vigorously, tried to think for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "I didn't see Magda now, but I met Ansadine's puppet, I'm afraid we only have two choices left: either take advantage of Magda's strength and rush over to fight, or... I can only get ready here and wait for the other party to come to the door. ”
Sighing, Luo Di was also a little bottomless in his heart - he had just completed the transfer task, and the advanced level was only level 2, and the basic level was level 11.
But what about the enemy?
"An Tuhao", who can take out a squadron of infantry head-on with a puppet, and "Wither" Magda, who doesn't know when to regain combat effectiveness!
My own opportunity is only in front of me, which is a good line... If he can't catch it, in the face of the revenge of these two people, no matter how many lives Luo Di has, he will not be enough to die.
The conflict between him and the undead has no way to be eliminated at this point, and there is no buffer room anymore.
"Angmar gives you the authority to command me, and I will listen to you. ”
Wellington exhaled slowly, then whispered, "But you're definitely not going to wait here." ”
Roddy smiled wryly, and Wellington's words naturally spoke to his heart. He never liked to be passive - just like he would be proactive against a gargoyle, all Roddy could do was rush forward and finish it all before Magda regained his strength!
"Rest for six hours and set off at midnight. ”
Without saying too much nonsense, Roddy stood up with pain and said to Ruger and Carter, who were on standby: "All armed, target Kig Town, must arrive before sunrise tomorrow!"
"Yes!"
The two captains replied loudly and neatly, and after the salute, the scouts turned their horses and left. The performance is always silent and quiet.
"Do you have a plan?"
Wellington knew Roddy's fighting style and knew that this guy never fought unprepared. But this time Luo Di did not give a positive answer, only reached out to wipe the blood on his arm, lowered his eyes, and said lightly:
"It's a race against death... It's too late to plan. ”
