Chapter 0509 - Attack and Kill (3)
In confined environments, shield-wielding human rangers can easily squeeze their opponents' movement space. The tower shield in his hand was extremely strong, protecting most of his body. No matter how desperately Exxon attacks, he just doesn't break the defense.
The long knife in the ranger's hand is extremely sharp, it should be a temporary enchantment to increase the sharpness, and it can pull out twenty or thirty centimeters of knife when chopping.
The sharp blade is shapeless and substantial, and it is extremely flexible in use, which greatly enhances the lethality.
In just a few rounds, Lord Exxon was forced to step back. He was sure that his strength was stronger than this ranger, and his level was higher, but he was stubbornly suppressed by the opponent's equipment and environment, and he couldn't use it at all.
During the fight, the lord of the Long-legged family kept yelling, trying to lure his subordinates to relieve the trouble. But he was forced into a corner and couldn't move, and he didn't even show up as a ghost.
Forced to be in a hurry......
The lord raised his hand again, and the jade ring lit up again.
Frost.
As a believer in the Frost Goddess, the higher-ups of the Longlegs family inevitably possess several magical items related to cold. Exxon pronounced the activation incantation, and an extremely cold snap erupted on his fingers.
As soon as the cold snap came out, it was as if the space was frozen.
This is Exxon's life-saving trick to press the bottom of the box, and it has relied on it to escape many times in distress.
It's just that this trick requires you to go to the Frost Temple and donate 2,000 gold coins every time you charge it. The priest of Auluel has no enthusiasm to speak of, and no matter how good the relationship is, he will not give half a discount.
The bone-chilling snap can freeze living creatures directly, turning danger into invisibility, like a nirvana. The blow worked, and Mahan, a ranger who was close at hand, was hit squarely.
The cold air flow cooled the entire room suddenly, and moisture precipitated in the air, turning into ice crystals on the tower shield, layering on top of each other, increasing rapidly.
Mahan's hand holding the shield immediately stiffened.
The bones were first frozen in severe pain, followed by numbness, and then loss of sensation. The extreme cold invaded Mahan's body, freezing his flesh and turning it into an ice sculpture.
The Winter Hall of Coldwind is home to many similar ice sculptures. Each one has a different posture and a myriad of expressions that amaze the viewer. for they were all living creatures.
The opponent hit, and Exxon shouted happily. He was slashed many times by Mahan's long knife, but the enchanted armor could not prevent it. Among them, the most seriously injured was under the ribs, three points into the flesh, blood splattered, and he relied on his strong physique to hold on.
Seeing that Mahan was frozen and couldn't move, the excited lord immediately wanted to bypass the tower shield and swing an axe to smash the other party's skull. He'd done something like that several times in the past.
Many powerful opponents have died from such tricks.
But when the axe blade struck, Mahan, who was holding the shield, moved, and was not completely frozen. Although it was very difficult to move his hands and feet, he did retain his mobility.
The silver shield was not only strong, but also had considerable magical resistance, which counteracted a lot of cold attacks.
This has never been seen before.
If you miscalculate one move, you will be wrong.
Exxon's axe slashed at the frost-covered tower shield again. The opponent just shook his body. When he continued to move the angle, he dealt another fatal blow to Mahan, and a dagger was pierced in the darkness.
The sudden dagger stabbed Exxon directly into the waist, trying to remove one of his kidneys. In order to dodge, he could only let his body be unbalanced and his waist crooked.
The short, nimble halfling wanderer leaped out of the shadows and stabbed the dagger into the squire's ass.
Exxon woke up with only armor due to time constraints, only a pair of pants on his lower body, and two hairy thighs were bare. This one pierced a bloody hole in his ass.
It hurts!
Exxon screamed at first, and now he realized that there was more than one opponent, or even more than two. To make matters worse, the wound on the buttocks was painful and then numb, followed by itching.
Worst!
This despicable little dwarf poisons a dagger!
Halflings have always had no taboos in doing things, and they like to be adventurous and wandering. They like to make trouble by nature, and often do things that harm others and themselves.
Smearing poison on weapons is a common occurrence for halfling adventurers, who have never had a moral penchant for it.
It's really life-threatening.
Just now, Exxon was reluctant to consume the frost energy on the jade ring, but now he knew that he was in big trouble, so he directly hit the ring on the armor on his chest.
The jade on the ring face was shattered, and the last of the magical energy contained in it exploded. A spherical force field suddenly appeared, expanding rapidly.
Without warning, the entire room suddenly collapsed, the ceiling and floor cracked, and even the walls burst open, creating a large gap. The Ranger and Wanderer who were standing nearby were struck by the force field, as if they had been hit hard.
Mahan still has a shield, so he can hold it out. But the halfling had a weak defense, and he couldn't dodge if he wanted to escape, and he was beaten by the force field and vomited blood and flew upside down.
Exxon took advantage of this opportunity, turned around and jumped from the second floor of the room he was in, and quickly escaped. Outside the mayor's house was the only street in the town, and he ran out to see Tias, who had been knocked into the air.
The rookie knight was hit hard by a shield, but it didn't hurt anything other than the churning of his blood and qi. He also wanted to go back to the house to help the lord. As a result, the room where the lord lived exploded in a few clicks, and the other party escaped by himself.
"Tias."
Seeing the rookie knight, Exxon was overjoyed. He was stabbed in one side of his buttocks, half of his body was gradually numb, and he limped forward and shouted: "I know you have an antidote with you at any time, give it to me, give it to me." ”
The knights of the Long-legged family all found a house to sleep, and only the rookie Tias was fully armed at the door of the lord. He really has the antidote provided by the Frost Church.
Exxon threw his head back and drank, and asked impatiently, "What about the others?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of fighting sounded at the other end of the town.
Two disheveled, long-legged knights hurriedly escaped. One of them didn't have anything with him, not even pants.
Behind him caught up a tall, burly orc, with fangs open and closed, and a hideous face. He threw an axe with a thunderous roar.
At a distance of seven or eight meters, the palm-sized axe swirled and hit the target.
The aristocratic lord who still has his nostrils facing the sky during the day is no better than ordinary civilians at the moment. One of them fled by waving his hand, as if that would make the orcs merciful.
This time, the axe struck him in the face. The sharp blade of the axe breaks through the flesh and bones, mixing blood and brains, causing it to die instantly.
The corpse of his companion fell to the ground, and the other knight could not escape, so he could only turn around desperately by holding the long knife and screaming for it.
But the noble status did not help, and the orcs in heavy armor slashed their tomahawks like windmills, and split the second knight into pieces of flesh in three or two blows.
Ruthless, resolute, and without hesitation.
All of this happens in a matter of seconds. The knight lord is also a human being, without equipment, he is embarrassed, and his combat effectiveness is not even a percent of the usual.
Without any scenes, two noble lives were ended in minutes.
Tias was stunned by the sudden death.
This kind of unaesthetic, even extremely cruel fighting, is extremely unacceptable to the rookie knight. In his opinion, a noble knight should not have died so worthless.
This is the death of a commoner, the death of a miscellaneous fish, the death of a homeless person, a bandit, a death of an inferior person. The aristocracy should be vigorous even if he dies.
But ......, the blood of the corpse was flowing, and life was over.
Tias shuddered, his strength draining. He turned his head to look at Lord Exxon, hoping to get some instructions from him. He desperately needed some encouragement, or he would have a mental breakdown.
The lord was wearing a pair of trousers and two bare legs, and was running quickly towards the stables with his feet padded.
In order to run faster, the noble old man even took off the armor on his body, and when he fled, he didn't even call Tias, leaving the rookie behind to delay time.
Death approached, companions were slaughtered, and superiors fled.
Tias was filled with excitement and gained a new understanding of what true aristocrats were.
