197.Chapter 197
Gargoyles are basically a nightmare for all Marine arms.
Even in modern warfare in Roddy's impression, having "air supremacy" also represents absolute superiority... The existence of helicopter gunships in local wars is much more powerful than what artillery tanks are.
And the same applies to this day and age - in Roddy's eyes, a gargoyle is far more troublesome than even eight iron golems!
Arrows are the only way to pose a threat to gargoyles, but they are only "threatened". Even a shooter of Roddy's calibre can only avoid the dive gargoyle when facing it... The speed of the other party is far more ferocious than that of the charging cavalry, and if you are casually taken by the claws, few people can resist at all!
"Run down the hallway! Watch out for gargoyles!"
Under the effect of "galloping", Roddy shook off the puppet chasing after him, but then he realized that the gargoyle was not coming towards him, but swooping down into the distance-
"Boom!"
A thunderous sound erupted, and the impact visible to the naked eye made the entire ground tremble slightly for a moment, and several civilians who were running fell directly to the ground, and then got up dizzily and continued to run away...
Roddy's vision was obscured by the dust, but he immediately thought of who the gargoyle was attacking - only Wellington would have such a position when he fought back!
But Wellington, the powerful "Ghost Rider", couldn't put Roddy at ease. In the face of gargoyles, even Wellington can only be passive... This is the most typical "arms of the armed forces to restrain each other", when the "strength" does not go beyond a certain limit, the cavalry is helpless to take the air units.
It seems that the enemy is not only targeting himself, even Wellington wants to kill them together!
At this time, he also figured out why Butler Black chose to do it just now: Wellington is the only existence that can confront these iron golems head-on, so if he wants to complete the siege as quickly as possible, it is best to carry it out when Wellington leaves...
"It's okay to calculate... This bunch of crumbs. ”
Roddy turned around and shot an arrow, which hit the head of an iron golem, but the arrow was sliced open by the opponent's pure metal head with a "ding".
"The attack is ineffective..."
Roddy's face became more and more ugly, and he immediately shouted at Sodlore: "Ruger and Carter are on standby at the arsenal, there should already be a scout to report, you go find a horse, beware of the gargoyles in the sky!"
"Understood!"
The entire town of Parr was in a strange state at this time. The Templars panicked, the civilians panicked, but Roddy and Sodrore were the only ones who were still rational and clear in their minds to judge the situation, and even give orders.
The Templars who had arrived in a hurry retreated into the distance at the order, and they all looked at the eight black "Iron Men" and the two guards in pursuit with suspicious expressions, raising their swords in their hands at a loss.
One of the Templars didn't hear the order because he ran too hard, and just happened to crash into the puppet team from the side, and he didn't think about it, so he raised his sword and slashed, but he didn't know that the short sword was embedded in the opponent's back - before he could pull it, a hammer swung next to him directly made his whole person spin and fly out...
"Idiot!"
Sodrore cursed, but he couldn't stop it from happening. He turned a corner and rushed into the alley next to him, and disappeared from the view of the puppets, the eight iron golems seemed to have a low IQ, thought about it, and turned towards Roddy to outflank him.
The two guards were much quicker than the puppets, and they chased Sodrore into the alley, rampage like chariots, and the barrels, fences, and even wooden walls in front of them were like papyrus, and all of them were shattered by the "boom" of the impact... They bit Sodrol and never got rid of it completely!
In comparison, the pressure on Roddy's side is much less.
The eight iron golems walked and shook the mountains with a terrifying momentum, but they were obviously not fast. Roddy wouldn't be stupid enough to slash at a bunch of iron lumps, always running ahead.
The idea in his mind at this time is very clear, his own combat power can't solve the problem head-on, and the only one who has this ability can only be Wellington - so how to solve the situation around him has become the only focus of Roddy's thinking.
Speaking of which, Roddy was in a very bad situation at this time, but luckily... With his vigilance, Luo Di won this few "initiatives" in "extreme passivity"!
Blake didn't expect that the "siege and killing game" would be recognized, and he didn't expect that he would be trampled to death without even having time to cast half of the spell...
As the specific planner of this operation, his death directly means that these puppets have lost their command and can only complete the "task" completely by instinct.
This is the "advantage" spelled out of countless "disadvantages".
Roddy only thought for a moment before he had a plan, he didn't stop, and used the "leap" to jump onto the roof of the house next to him, but before he could run a few steps, the sound of horses' hooves in his ears made him frown instantly.
The strange sound of horses' hooves could never have come from scouts or Templars, and Roddy turned his head, only to feel a chill permeate...
At the end of the street, a puppet knight with a metallic sheen appeared.
This is the real horror of the "iron puppet", the "puppet" it summons and shapes can not only use weapons, but also control war horses and become cavalry!
The "puppet knight" that appeared right now was riding a skeleton war horse with full armor and a silver riding spear, and was charging straight towards the tall figure in the distance...
Obviously, it was specifically designed to deal with Wellington.
Roddy paused, but narrowed his eyes and swept over the buildings around him, then confirmed a direction and rushed quickly - behind him, eight iron golems crashed into the wooden shed of a stable, and chased after him without slowing down, hanging on his body full of straw.
At the same moment, Akasha struggled to push away the plank that was pressing down on her body, and looked around in severe pain.
Ten seconds ago, she had just caught up with the Wellington Knight and conveyed Roddy's words, but she didn't expect that in the middle of the sentence, the originally calm Wellington Knight suddenly grabbed her arm and threw it out!
Compared with Wellington, Akasha's body can only be described as "weak", this throw made Akasha only feel that the world was spinning, and her body rolled directly to the ground after retreating seven or eight meters!
And before she could get up, the explosion of air caused her body to lift off the ground, and "Kala" smashed the door of the house behind her, and fell to the floor of the house...
And in Akasha's rapidly receding vision, she saw the Wellington Knight draw his sword and raise it into the sky, firmly blocking the attack of a huge black shadow!
The impact of the full-scale outbreak of "battle qi" made the gargoyle unable to move an inch, but Wellington's feet sank into the ground by more than ten centimeters... He blocked the killing blow, but he didn't have the strength to fight back.
The gargoyle retreated at the touch of a button, as a flying class it had the absolute initiative, and it was not on the ground at all to fight Wellington, and with a flap of its wings, it rushed into the dark sky in the dust, and disappeared from everyone's field of vision...
Wellington stepped forward with a gloomy gaze, jumped out of the two deep pits that his feet had stepped on, and then turned his head to look in the direction of Akasha, and shouted in a deep voice, "How are you?"
He knew that Akasha was the one brought by Roddy, otherwise he wouldn't have asked such a question.
But Akasha couldn't answer, her back smashed against the door, and she felt that she couldn't even breathe in pain. Pushing away the wooden planks that covered her, Akasha's vision was blurry, and she couldn't even see where Wellington was—but she responded by waving her hand to the effect that she was still alive.
Wellington didn't have time to answer her - the second gargoyle had already arrived, and if he hadn't had good ears, he wouldn't have been able to dodge the claws coming from behind!
"Shhhh
Wellington's brow furrowed as the leather armor on his shoulders was gaped open, and although he had never fought an enemy from the air, he instinctively sensed that standing in the open was not a good thing, so he immediately retreated to the tavern wall to the side.
Fifteen meters away, Akasha had already applied an "intermediate healing technique" to herself, the pain quickly subsided, and her vision became clearer, but the more she did, the more she understood what she had avoided at this moment.
There are really enemies, and they are very strong enemies.
Akasha looked ahead in a daze, she was not the only one who was overturned by the "war spirit" around her, three or four innocent civilians were lying unconscious on the ground, the doors and windows of the tavern were completely shattered, and the screams came and went...
And in the midst of this chaos, the first thought that flashed through his mind was the sentence that Roddy had just said - "Find cover first and then go to assist in treatment, understand?"
Assist in the treatment...
This sentence reminded her of the cynicism of those people when she was in the "Pit Viper Cross" for no reason-
"Isn't it just that the magic is stronger, why did you go to such a high position?"
"It's just pretty, it's much easier for a woman to get on top than us. ”
"It's interesting to hear that she saved a lot of poor people, is it really a charity, ignorant woman. ”
......
Akasha is very simple and has a casual attitude towards everything, but if there is one thing she is willing to pursue to the extreme, it must be "magic".
And now, Roddy's only request for her is to use magic to "assist in healing".
Akasha's eyes widened slightly, as if she had suddenly figured something out.
The fear of encountering a strong enemy is still there, and her body is still trembling slightly because of trembling, but when she looks at the battlefield in front of her, Akasha finds... I am not as "incompetent" as I imagined.
At least now she can help Roddy!
The gargoyle struck down again, and at the same moment, a puppet knight with a spear in the distance attacked!
Wellington had no choice but to forcibly use the "Battle Qi" clone in front of him, but he didn't have the confidence to completely block this double attack in his heart - the long sword slashed, and the gargoylee was pushed by the shock, but the clone on the front failed to block the impact of the puppet knight at all, and was directly shattered by the cavalry spear!
The strength of the other party was beyond Wellington's imagination, but at this time, his long sword was still held above his head, and he didn't have time to dodge at all-
Seeing that the rifle was about to hit his body, Wellington noticed that there was a flash of golden light in front of him.
"Phew!"
With a muffled sound, he couldn't escape the attack of the cavalry, but strangely enough, the blow didn't pierce Wellington's body, but knocked him flying!
The tall body smashed through the walls of the tavern, smashing the solid wood bar with a "clang", and the whole body was embedded in the middle of the two ale barrels—the panicked people in the tavern were silent, and they looked at Wellington as he struggled to get up from the broken wood, completely dumbfounded.
