Chapter 2: War and Harvest

The third young master, who was behind John, saw John start to run away and immediately began to run in pursuit. John fled, with his hands and feet on his feet, and from time to time he looked behind him, a look of fear on his face. On the surface, John was looking backwards at the distance between the young man and himself, but in fact John was still looking at the battle between the middle-aged man in the back and the two sides in front.

"That young man is still about ten meters away from me, the middle-aged commander is now about 300 meters away from me, and those knights who are fighting are not paying attention here, it seems that the only one who can immediately detect the problem here is the middle-aged man now. But it seems that those mercenaries will not last long, and if nothing else, they will be killed by the knights in another 2 minutes at most. However, these knights still only took advantage of one piece of equipment, and although they were more proficient in each move, they could still see that they lacked actual combat experience. In other words, at this time, the one who can react in time to effectively attack me should be the middle-aged man. ”

Thinking about it, John once again glanced back at the young man who was rushing towards him with a sword: "Judging from the attitude of the middle-aged man just now, this young man is the highest-ranking person in this team, and at this time, let him pursue alone instead of coming together, which shows that he has full confidence in this young man, although he will pay attention to this side from time to time, but most of his attention is still on the novice knight's side." And this young man didn't seem to have much experience, and his eyes didn't look focused on fighting me...... Maybe for him, killing a civilian with only a wooden stick in his hand is not even a fight, and maybe it's not as difficult as killing a dog. Now my strengths - their attitude of contempt for the enemy, and my combat experience. But it is not excluded that there are other life-saving things. So, there's only one shot!"

Thinking of this, John slowed down his running speed as if he had no strength, and waited for the young man behind to catch up. When the young man saw John stop, he was overjoyed, and he did not find anything strange about him, but when John had stopped and waited for death, he stabbed his sword at John with the speed of the impact. Seeing that this situation was the same as he had guessed, John directly made an emergency brake, directly bent down slightly and turned to dodge the attacking stabbing sword, and at the same time threw his left fist at the young man's sword-holding right hand like a whip with the help of a turning movement. Unexpectedly, John still had the ability to fight back, and was punched in the right hand holding the sword, deviating the sword from its original trajectory, and at the same time losing his balance and falling to the side.

John had anticipated this when he threw his fist, and the wooden stick in his right hand stabbed directly into the young man's lower abdomen. The young man has not been subjected to a few times since he was a child, even if he studied fighting with the nursing home at home, the other party only stopped at the point, and suddenly suffered a heavy blow to the abdomen, and the young man in pain bent his waist into a shrimp shape. John raised the wooden stick in his right hand, swung it down vigorously, and smashed it on the back of the head of the bent young man, directly knocking the young man unconscious to the ground.

The middle-aged man in the distance originally expected that the battle of the third young master was about to end, and saw that the knights below had already cut down one of the mercenaries, and the advantage had been further expanded, so he moved his eyes from the warring guards and mercenaries to the third young master, but he couldn't let the third young master wait. As soon as he turned around, he saw the third young master fall to the ground, and the refugee-like man next to him raised his foot and stomped on the third young master's neck fiercely. In just a moment, the third young master's neck had been broken, and it was twisted to the side, and he saw that he could no longer live.

Middle-aged men naturally know the severity of the consequences. Although as the third son in the family, there are two brothers who have already made great achievements, and the chance of inheriting the title is not great, but because the third young master is the son of the baron, the third young master has been very loved by the lord, the lady and the eldest young master and the second young master since he was a child. This time he came out only as a rite of passage, and he obtained the sacrifice to the gods with his own hands, and the place he chose was the Duchy of Griffon, where the main army was about to be wiped out. In this way, the lord also sent himself and a team of courtyard guards with a total of 9 people as guards. Although the guardian is only a descendant of the peasants in the territory, he has entered the baronial palace for training since he was a child. In addition to the lack of actual combat experience, the physical fitness of these nurses is not weak, coupled with the armor and weapons on their bodies, as a combat power in peacetime, it is enough, and at a critical moment, due to the long-term washing of nao and for the sake of more welfare for the family, they also dare to sacrifice themselves to let the young master survive the crisis. If it goes well, when the third young master completes the trial and returns, these nurses will also be regarded as confidants, and he will also become the chief instructor. But these are all built on the premise that the third young master can complete the trial, and now, it's all over! Not only that, if he and the others go back like this, in addition to his own life, he is more likely to implicate his family.

At that moment, the middle-aged man didn't care about the training of the nursing home, so he directly drew a long sword from his waist and rushed towards John with a loud roar. The soldiers in the battle heard Captain Bass's roar and knew that something must have happened, but they couldn't leave these mercenaries alone, so they could only attack the mercenaries more vigorously in order to kill them quickly so that they could support.

On the other side, after John trampled the young man to death, he absorbed about 50 points of soul, and at the same time saw a point of light appear on the corpse, so he grabbed it casually and held it in his hand. It turned out to be a weapon in the hands of a young man, and he was not in a hurry to observe the weapon, so he put it in the space like a backpack and prepared to leave here. Raising his eyes and looking in the direction of the middle-aged man just now, he found that the middle-aged man was drawing his weapon and rushing towards this side quickly. John ran as he pulled his legs, thinking about what terrain he had made use of when he had just arrived. However, as the place where the two armies charged and fought, the terrain was generally an unsheltered plain, and there was not even a bush. It seems that it is not realistic to use the terrain to kill, and to set a trap, not to mention that there are no tools and materials now, even if there are, John does not think that the person who rushed over in the back will stop and let John set it up.

"What a terrible start. Sighing for the second time, what John could count on now was the weapon he had just received from the young man, although he didn't use a rapier much in the past, but in the face of a knight's sword in the hands of a middle-aged man, it was better than a wooden stick.

Thinking of this, John took out the rapier he had just entered from the backpack space and held it in his hand to look at the attributes. "Noble Rapier: A noble rapier carefully forged by a blacksmith using fine iron and blessed by the rituals of the Tower. Tari is the patron saint of the Kingdom of Garnier, and as a god of the god of war, Rimu, he has been active on the battlefield many times as a vanguard officer. The weapons blessed by the tower are extremely strong and sharp. Weapon (Fine), Blessing: Blade, Hard. ”

John looked at the introduction and raised his eyebrows, there is really still a god in this world, and what the two brothers and sisters said has not deviated so far.

Captain Buzz in the back didn't see John picking up the sword and putting it in his backpack at first, but when he saw the thin sword in John's hand, he concluded that John still had an extremely rare spatial attribute item hidden on his body. But this doesn't make sense, none of the people who can have spatial attribute items are simple characters, even the Lord Earl who is loyal to the Baron Lord, the commander-in-chief of the attack on the Griffin Principality, Lord Deng Jiaer, only has one space item in his home. Maybe that's the silver lining now!

Bass suddenly thought of a lot at this moment. Space objects are difficult to make, and although people have tried to find ways to make space objects for countless years, space objects have always been made in places that people could not predict. In the most famous nursery rhyme story collection on the mainland, "Red Nursery Rhymes", there is such a legend, an ordinary jewelry craftsman in order to pay taxes, made a bracelet overnight, and after handing it in, the local lord found that it was a space item, so he promoted Red to Sir and gave him a large sum of money, and named the bracelet Red's ring. Now, a ready-made space item is placed in front of him, as long as he kills the lowly homeless man and goes back with his head and space items, not to mention the reward, it is enough to save the life of the family.

John didn't know how much this middle-aged man had seen in the battle just now, but from the actions of this middle-aged man rushing over, he could see that he had rich combat experience, far from being comparable to the young man and the rookie knight over there, and speculated that if he repeated his old tricks and pretended to be exhausted to sneak attack, it was very likely that he would not be able to deceive this middle-aged man's eyes. When the time comes, it is estimated that he will be dead if he is caught and beaten back, so he stayed where he was holding a sword in his right hand and a flagpole across his chest with his left hand, putting himself in a good posture and waiting for the middle-aged man to rush over.

Buzz saw the outcasts in a fighting stance, and secretly said that he had seen the wrong person. Estimating that the distance was almost there, he began to slow down, and when he was about 10 meters away from John, he was already in a posture and approaching.

Seeing the middle-aged man like this, John frowned, after all, there is very little time for John, in case he waits for those rookie knights to come, he will have no chance at all. Thinking of this, John threw the flagpole wooden stick in his hand as a flying knife towards the middle-aged man.

Buzz saw the homeless man throwing at him, and threw the wooden stick in his hand towards him, first habitually dodging, but then remembering the uncertainty of the space item, for fear that this ordinary-looking wooden stick was a space item, he quickly turned around and looked at the flying wooden stick to judge the general direction and landing point of the wooden stick flying away.

Bus, who had just figured out where to land, suddenly heard a rush of footsteps. Bass, who has a lot of combat experience, was shocked: "It's not good, it's a trick!" Before he could turn his head, he saw that the homeless had rushed in front of him, and then he felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and felt a sharp object penetrate his body diagonally from his abdomen and out from his back: after rushing in front of him, the homeless man launched an attack, piercing the sword in his hand through the gap between the breastplate and the abdominal armor that could not be protected.

Holding the sword in both hands, John straightened up, and smiled at the middle-aged man in front of him, "Hello." ”
