Chapter 12: The Enemy Trail on the Mountaintop

After instructing the others to keep their posts and not relax, they went down the mountain and headed for the opposite side, the two peaks were so close that they could almost reach it with their feet, and the two mountains could be said to have no secrets from each other, and they were all unobstructed. Fortunately, it was late at night, especially when there were plants everywhere on the road up the mountain, and the two of them carefully observed the progress all the way under the cover of trees, but they did not find any anomalies or figures. The top of the mountain is only fifty or sixty meters high, and the tops of the mountains on both sides are almost the same as small platforms with only a dozen or so stone piles, but on the other side there is an extremely high cliff that is almost vertical, and it reaches into the clouds.

Quirrell believed that even the best hunters would not dare to climb here, after all, the slightest mistake would be shattered, and when he observed during the day, he could not even see the top of the cliff. And the reason why I chose to leave this place to the enemy is also because of this cliff, once there is really an enemy situation, the enemy can be completely blocked on the mountain, even if the enemy is found to be in great difficulty, it is convenient for him to evacuate and call for reinforcements, just hold this direction to block the retreat on the opposite side. Seeing that they were about to reach the top of the mountain, they were already very tacitly lying on the ground and slowly moving forward, and their four eyes kept observing left and right, whether they found the opposite side first or were discovered, it can be said that it was a world of difference.

Quirrell's hands were already sweating slightly at this time, after all, it was the first time to do this kind of thing, and he couldn't tell whether he was nervous or excited, and looked at Mihawk next to him, and found that his eyes were also shining, panting softly, obviously in the same mood as Quirrell. It's just that the situation on the top of the mountain is sorry for the excitement of the two, and there is no movement except for the occasional night owl or two. Quirrell patted Mihawk lightly and said in the smallest voice, "Let's go one after the other, you are three meters behind me, and look for it little by little in the direction." ”

Mihawk frowned and said, "The risk of hitting the head is much higher than that of the queen of the palace, and I am still in front." ”

Quirrell said: "Your swordsmanship is better than mine, if I don't have time to react when I encounter the enemy, you have a good chance of rescuing me, if you encounter the enemy, I don't have the slightest confidence to protect you." I'm in front. Mihawk nodded in agreement, letting go of a few positions and slowly following Quirrell.

Disappointingly, the two of them circled around the top of the mountain, but they couldn't even find a bottle of wine during the day, let alone a human figure. The two of them stood up stupidly, and their hearts were more disappointed than relaxed, not to mention the middle of the night after such a busy trip, and the sense of loss of being smart was even more pervasive in their hearts. The two were about to speak, when Quirrell's heart shook and he shouted to be careful! At the same time, a side pounce knocked Mihawk down, and several bows and arrows flew close to the corners of his clothes, which can be said to be dangerous and dangerous.

The two of them rolled against a stone to hide themselves, Quirrell threw out his short bow and shot an arrow at the source, and Mihawk held his sword in his hand and stared at the black place in front of him, if there was an enemy in this direction, it would be a real enemy in the abdomen.

Quirrell's arrow was shot by feeling, but it had no effect, and he clung to the stone and tried to listen to the footsteps or the sound of the bow and arrow breaking in the wind. Mihawk said softly: "Just now, there were four arrows, and they hit almost at the same time, and there were at least four people in the opposite direction." ”

Quirrell was shocked to see that Mihawk could still count the arrows, and said, "The enemy probably discovered us a long time ago, and waited for the encirclement to be formed before making a move. There must have been more way down the mountain than four people. Quirrell's brain was spinning rapidly, at this time he regretted leaving this desperate path to the enemy, the enemy must also be understaffed, it is difficult to surround on all sides, and now he has saved manpower for the opponent, and it is likely to become his own desperate way, it is too big.

Before Quirrell could regret it, a strong wind hit his head, and a spear poked out of the rock, pointing straight at the top of Mihawk's head, and Mihawk was very embarrassed to roll on the ground again to dodge, apparently not hearing any approaching footsteps. Quirrell shot another arrow that had already been in the string, threw away the short bow and drew his long sword, and rushed towards the comer, who turned his spear and unleashed the bow and arrow, jumped off the one-man high rock, and stabbed Quirrell with a straight stab, Quirrell did not dare to touch his edge, and also took two steps back sharply to get out of the attack range.

Mihawk over there was not ambiguous, stabbing at the person with several swords in a row, this man had a good voice, the tip of the spear danced up and down like snow, and the Mihawk couldn't stab a sword completely, let alone enter the best range of his own long sword, but struggled in the comfort zone of the long spear. After Quirrell stabilized his position, he also slashed out with a sword, and he didn't look back, as if he had an eye in the back of his head, he swung Quirrell with his sword with the hilt of his gun, and it actually made a sound of gold and iron, and what the person was holding was not a conventional wooden gun but seemed to be made of pure metal, so this person's arm strength alone was terrifying.

Mihawk was distracted, and finally jumped out of the range of the spear and gasped softly. Quirrell followed the moonlight to finally see the man's majestic figure, except for his eyes, which were tightly wrapped in black clothes, and a man-tall spear stood beside him, and he was mighty. Quirrell asked, "Who is Your Excellency, and what are you doing watching us here?" ”

The person who came laughed and said: "This kind of nonsense, why are you talking about it, you two boys are unlucky, so you will die here." "The voice is sandpapered, and it is generally extremely hoarse. Mihawk drank: "It's not certain who will stay, Your Excellency might as well let your friends come out." ”

The visitor smiled and said, "Why do you need friends, isn't it enough for me alone?" After that, another shot stabbed at Mihawk, Mihawk was not afraid at all, a sword unloaded the gun, so that the family swordsmanship connected the point in the body of the gun to unload the power, he also took two steps forward, the long sword is slightly shorter, if it is so far away, it is very unfavorable to himself, Mihawk just wants to get close as soon as possible to play the advantage of his weapon. Quirrell also stabbed straight behind the back, knowing that his swordsmanship was not as subtle as Mihawk's, so he did his best to distract the man in black.

The man in black danced up and down with a spear, although it was one against two, there were still seven moves in ten moves, and he had the upper hand. At this time, Mihawk saw that he could not break through the defense line, and he was secretly anxious that he didn't know whether this person had any companions, and wanted to take down this person quickly, so he took the lead in changing his rhythm, and stabbed the legs of the man in black several times in a row, so that he could not give full play to the advantage of the large attack area of the spear. At the same time, his feet did not stop, biting the man in black tightly looking for opportunities. Biting tightly, the man in black looked for an opportunity to pull the distance in again.

Quirrell's swordsmanship is far less subtle than Mihawk's, relying on rich experience and the basic theories taught by his grandfather, seeing Mihawk's main attack, it is also very tacit to stimulate the fighting spirit, and several consecutive swords attack the upper body of the man in black, trying his best to share the pressure for Mihawk. The man in black was mostly focused on Mihawk at this time, so he couldn't take a step beyond the thunder pool and never get into his most comfortable distance, while Quirrell's attacks were blocked one by one with the tail of his gun. The man in black suddenly swept Mihawk half a step away again, then turned his gun around and stabbed Quirrell four times in a row.

Quirrell's pressure exploded, and in the face of these fatal four shots, he could only swing his sword twice, and a miserable scream came out, and he was stabbed in the left shoulder and right rib almost at the same time, blood had gushed out, Mihawk behind him didn't know how Quirrell's injury was, he roared angrily, and the sword light erupted like a torrential rain, and the eyes of several people in black finally revealed a trace of solemnity, and they didn't have time to retract the tip of the gun, let go of the handle of the gun, and pushed it with his right hand, and sent the tail of the gun in his hand to the center of the sword rain. Mihawk's long sword was actually broken by this sword, and the tiger's mouth holding the sword was faintly painful and almost couldn't hold the sword, Quirrell saw that the man in black's spear finally left his hand, and he didn't care about the pain of the two wounds, so he rushed up again and stabbed the man in black's chest, the man in black obviously didn't expect Quirrell to be so brave, and was cut open by Quirrell's first sword, but he quickly slammed his whip back and landed on Quirrell's wrist, Quirrell couldn't hold the short sword in pain, and he didn't hesitate, rubbed his body and elbowed and smashed into the ribs of the man in black, just wanted to hold the man in black close to him. The man in black said disdainfully: "Do you think I'm that little ghost over there, and you approached casually." Before he could finish speaking, he slammed Quirrell into the air.

Mihawk was suddenly stunned and said, "Master of the Division? ”
