Chapter 14: A Tough Man
The suburbs outside of Kansas City were instantly transformed into a battlefield site.
As the captain of the entire assassination team, Kenshin Uesugi did not participate in the fight, but stood in the rear and watched from a distance.
Because he didn't know if the legendary Justin was really that expressive.
"Swear not to surrender, never retreat!" Benjamin shouted.
Listening to the loud voice of the eight guards, Justin frowned, how many of them could survive?
Including Justin himself, he did not dare to 100% guarantee to repel the enemy, but the Eight Guards were not stronger than humans, nor did they have natural superpowers, just a group of people who worked hard under Justin's training. It is extremely difficult to train groups of talents, especially loyal knights.
Without these brains, the Thunder Alliance Empire is like a bloodied tiger, which is a pity. Moreover, the prince of the Great Empire of Grants must not die in the territory of the Thunder Alliance Empire.
"Later, I will try to use the blade of the silver ring to tear a hole in the barrier over there, you retreat with the prince, and I will break the back for you to resist them!" Justin gripped the reins and pulled out the glorious national treasure-level weapon, the Silver Ring Blade.
"General Justin......" Benjamin and the others looked at each other.
"Don't say much, focus on the task. But today, maybe a few of us here will die......" The Eight Guards were originally in front of His Majesty the King to be in charge of guarding, and Justin wanted to apologize for involving them in this top-secret mission, but after seeing the expressions of the Eight Guards, he immediately swallowed back what he wanted to say.
The faces of Benjamin and the others were covered with the expressions of warriors, which were about to go to the soup and fire, and they were still fearless. Ever since he became a knight of the Empire, he has been ready to die proudly. It would be a shame if Justin said sorry to them at this point.
This knight, who decided to take on this escort mission despite knowing the danger, did not need any words of apology at all.
"Please don't care, General Justin, the eight of us are His Majesty's eight guards, and we are ready to go to the battlefield to the death. Today, even at a terrible cost, this task must be accomplished! ”
"Yes General, we are willing to carry out the mission, and we swear to fight side by side with the general!"
The eight guards had already said so, and Justin had no choice but to wave his sword and say, "I'll open the way, and you escort the prince to evacuate!" ”
Benjamin and the others immediately drew the quiver on their backs, striving to gain an advantage in distance, and then mounted the arrows and shot at the enemy.
The Eight Guards are beyond the ordinary, with their arrows hitting their targets impartially and with their arrows, and they are all headshots!
Watching the arrows hit the enemy's eyebrows, the faces of the eight guards were filled with joy, but in the next second, their smiles froze.
Because their arrows don't have mana damage or penetration, they may be useful against ordinary prey or low-level goblins, but for these assassins in the Black Yan Division, it's almost tickling.
"Isn't it really good?" Justin looked at the arrows that had been bounced off. The heads of the enemies resemble hard helmets, as if they had some kind of protective magic, and ordinary arrows could not hurt them in the slightest.
In order to shoot through magic that has the effect of a defensive shooting weapon, you must use a weapon that casts magic.
And in Justin's hands, only that national treasure-level weapon, the Silver Ring Blade, has this kind of damage penetration.
After a round of arrows from the Eight Guards was released, the assassins of the Black Yan Department also began to attack.
The first was a long-range second-order offensive fire magic, and more than a dozen fireballs shot at Justin and them.
"Hide behind me, watch the carriage, and guard against sneak attacks!" Justin began to concentrate and put his full attention on the rack to resist.
Justin swung the blade of the silver ring in his hand, slashing back and forth left and right, and two fireball attacks hit Justin's armor, Justin only caused inertia to lean back, but the armor's protective effect did not hurt him.
Uesugi Kenshin watched the whole process and muttered to himself: "He is worthy of being a man who is favored by the king, and even the clothes on his body are mid-level magic equipment."
The energetic hand guard that does not get tired enhances the activity of the hands.
In addition, the indestructible talisman that can continue to heal.,As long as it's not a serious injury, it can heal itself.,It's a perverted cheat.。
There is also the Guardian Armor, which can avoid a fatal blow and is made of the hardest metal steel. It is said to be incredibly flexible, and it has been demonized in order to achieve sharpness, so it can self-regulate its temperature even in hot and glacial areas......"
Uesugi Kenshin realized that he had underestimated the opponent in front of him, and it was no wonder that the assassins of the other two departments once ridiculed him for his arrogance and ignorance, and it was not without reason.
A person like Justin who defies the sky, it is estimated that it may be difficult to defeat with human strength alone, and even if he can win, he will have to pay a very heavy price.
But what if Justin is strong? This time, Uesugi Kenshin came prepared, but he felt that now was not the time to perform a killer move, after all, that kind of thing was precious, and the always stingy Uesugi Kenshin was really reluctant to use those magic props on Justin's body.
"Let's look at the situation again......"
The excitement of Justin's crotch horse came from his feet, and he looked at Benjamin and the others behind him, three of them had already suffered heavy injuries, and their mobility had been slowed down.
The armor on the Eight Guards was all low-level equipment, and it was obvious that they could not withstand the enemy's rounds of fireball beatings.
There is no chance of winning long-distance battles, you must forcibly break through to close combat, otherwise you will be consumed like a living target here, even if you have the blessing of recovering mana, but once the mana is excessively consumed, it will take a long gap to recover, and if you are attacked in the middle, you will really have to fight bloodshed for a while.
However, just as Justin wanted to break through the melee fight, the war horse under his crotch seemed to be disturbed in some way, and the war horse neighed loudly, raised its front feet high, and kicked its hooves in the air.
Justin was proud to be an equestrian genius, but no matter how tightly he gripped the reins, he still couldn't hold the horse, so he leaned forward and hugged the horse's neck, and almost fell off the horse's back.
The sudden situation caused Justin to break out in a cold sweat, but he finally suppressed his anxiety, after all, there were enemies to deal with at the moment.
In the face of chaos, Justin was a little emotional, and he whipped the horse's flank violently in a disordered breath, but the war horse did not move, as if there were more important orders waiting to be carried out than the person sitting on his back.
At this time, Justin was sure that the enemy's team was mixed with psychic magic chanters who controlled their horses!
It's just that the magic chant of the spirit control class is not very powerful, otherwise it wouldn't be as simple as a spirit control war horse.
