Chapter 103: Eye to eye
The hurried sound of the bell reached Roshen's ears before he could see the town.
Soon after, when he climbed over a small dirt slope, the town was revealed.
Really.
Roshen found that he had not misunderstood the English-like words in the human deserter's mouth, and that the "town" he meant was indeed referring to the concept of "town".
If it's just a village, or a small market...... He's going to be a little sad.
At this moment.
The chase game of human knights and barbarian cavalry is over.
From the number of human knights' corpses that fell along the way, Luo Shen could roughly tell that about a third of the human knights' fleeing team did not escape. At this time, I saw two new corpses under the dirt slope, and the city gate that was being hastily closed in the distance......
If there is no accident, this "chase and kill" drama may be over.
Luo Shen picked up the thing in his hand and took a bite on his mouth, his face a little uninterested.
At this moment, the barbarians riding the tall horses just turned their horses back and forth, and saw Luo Shen, who was standing on the dirt slope without any shelter.
"Uluyangchia!" A barbarian pointed at Roshen and said something.
Even though Roshen is an evil god, he is not an "omniscient and all-powerful god", and has nothing to do with attributes such as "wisdom", "language", and "communication".
Therefore, at this moment, Luo Shen didn't understand what the other party said at all.
However, then he still understood the other party's bow and arrow.
Tilting his head, a small space on the ground that the other party could not see under his feet fluctuated like the surface of the water. If someone with spatial vision is here, they can perceive something terrible in this "window" that is temporarily connected to a sub-plane, slowly wriggling and swimming there.
Stretch ——!
The black and heavy black bow was instantly reset, but the hundreds of catties of force it burst out condensed on a black feather arrow about 1.4 meters long and the thickness of an adult's ring finger.
This force caused the arrow to turn into an instantaneous black shadow in space, and it crossed a distance of one hundred and ten meters to Luo Shen without the ability to react to ordinary people.
Poof!
The small body on the hillside was pierced by the arrow, and the force was still strong enough to send his small body backwards for a short distance.
The object in the child's hand rolled to the ground.
The scene was bleak.
There was a suppressed exclamation of surprise from the soldiers of the town guards on the stone walls of the town and among the townspeople who had temporarily armed them, and some of the town's women who had rushed to help the city could not help but cover their mouths and weep.
Still, someone noticed something was wrong.
Almost at the same time.
Several of the barbarians and those at the head of the city noticed something unusual.
A certain barbarian pointed at Luo Shen and said something in that rough and rigid language, and the other barbarians immediately looked at what had fallen from Luo Shen's hand.
And on the head of the city.
Yorick was explaining to a few of his companions that the child had fallen from a gnawed human knight's head.
And, as a ranger archer, Yorick swears that the human knight's face has been bitten by a bite that looks like the human child's small mouth.
This moment......
A certain uneasiness began to brew quietly, and all this was exaggerated when the little boy got up again.
A solemn look appeared on the face of the barbarian leader.
Even in a magical world like Faerun, it is possible to have both an undead physique and a habit of eating human flesh raw...... It's not going to be a guy who brings good news.
After a short order, the two barbarian cavalry rushed out of the ranks, ran in the direction of Luo Shen for dozens of meters, and then opened their bows and arrows, and shot two arrows at him again.
Yellow-green blood splattered.
This time, however, the barbarian's arrow struck only a thick tentacle that suddenly burst out of the ground.
"Magic!" The barbarians were startled, but it was too late - the huge tentacles more than seventy meters long slapped fiercely towards the two barbarian cavalry with an unstoppable momentum!
After the short neighing of the war horse, there were only two unspeakable pieces of minced meat on the ground and a ditch tens of meters long and more than half a meter deep on the ground.
The barbarians glanced at each other and made a decision that none of the humans on the walls had expected: flee!
That's it.
Giving up the bravery that the barbarians were proud of, he fled directly in the other direction!
A tentacle that was only six or seven meters long rolled up the knight's head that had just fallen to the ground and sent it to Luo Shen.
Luo Shen happily picked up the head.
Eyes set on the town.
It just so happened that Yorick was also looking at him.
Moment.
Yorick felt a great fear come over him like never before, and for a brief moment of mental trance, he even felt that he was not looking at a pretty-looking human boy, but a most powerful and ferocious abyssal demon.
Of course.
Yorick hadn't seen a real Abyssal Demon.
So he couldn't comment on the right or wrong of this feeling, but the momentary eye contact did make Yorick feel some kind of absurd, unbelievable, and completely immersed in a fear that he couldn't extricate himself from.
"Hell! It's like falling for the 'Fear Technique'! Yorick muttered quietly, and Amy, the half-elf thief next to him, heard him talking to himself and asked strangely, "What's wrong?" ”
Yorick, of course, wouldn't tell her that he was so frightened by the other person's look that he almost wet his pants.
Thereupon.
He had no choice but to say, "This kid isn't human, is he?" What kind of spell is that squid tentacle-like thing? Do you know? ”
The half-elf thief rolled his eyes: "I'm not a mage!" Not a common spell though...... But I'm afraid this kid is really dangerous. ”
There was a pause.
Amy lowered her voice and continued, "I didn't expect the barbarians to defeat Plantagenet's army! Looks like it's not safe here anymore! We must go back to the tavern and find the captain and get out of here before this town becomes a battlefield! ”
Yorick's heart sank when he heard this.
As a professional mercenary who has been on the roams for many years, he certainly knows how vulnerable a town like the one in front of him is in the face of a force that can defeat the entire Marquis's army.
It is indeed imperative to get out of this place of right and wrong before the war spreads here!
So, the two quietly descended the city wall and hurried towards the town.
