Fifty-nine - belated hero
The scale armor of the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" is extremely hard, and its defense is far superior to that of armored spiders and the like.
However, Nelson's sword was not an ordinary blade, the sword "Dawn", unlike Averl's "Red Dragon" sword, did not invest in any special metaphorical attributes, instead spent all the enhancements on the sharpness and durability of the weapon, which was an ordinary and extremely powerful blade.
Under the activation of the metaphorical skill, the sharpness of the weapon has increased several times. Nelson turned his broadsword and swung it hard, and the sword "Dawn" with a burst of white brilliance slashed the wrist of the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" with a roar!
But when he heard a loud bang, the blade collided with the scale armor, but in a moment, it had already slashed into the flesh of the "Purgatory Demon Wolf"! Crimson blood arrows erupted from the Infernal Wolf's wrist, and in the next moment, they were vaporized by the infernal fire that it had brought with it, turning into a cloud of mist.
Although Nelson's knife did not succeed in severing one of the hands of the "Purgatory Wolf", it also left a deep scar on it. Taking advantage of the opportunity created by Nelson, Akagi and Shozuru in the rear hurriedly shot arrows towards the "Purgatory Demon Wolf".
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!"
The "Purgatory Demon Wolf" shrank his hand in pain and raised his head to the sky and roared. In the roar of the sky, he didn't care that a dozen arrows were flying towards him, and he stepped forward with his left foot, and swept towards Nelson with his tail of an inverted cone-shaped hard object! I'd rather eat the attack of Akagi and the others than hit Nelson!
Tails the size of beams and pillars of several buildings swept towards them, rolling up countless dirt and dust on the ground!
The distance that was shortened in order to share the burden of his companions has now become a fatal factor that cannot lead him back. The tail of the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" is even bigger than the stone pillars of classical buildings, and it is too late to step back, and if you talk about jumping into the air, it is not impossible to try it under normal circumstances. It's a pity that what Nelson is holding at the moment is a blade that has been more than several times huge.
Holding a blade that is even bigger than himself, and attaching such weight, it is simply wishful thinking to leap into the air in just a moment.
If you give up the knife, there may still be a chance, but what should you do with yourself after you give up the knife? In the face of such a strong enemy, losing the blade at such a distance, even if he dodges this blow, it will only delay the period of death.
But having said that, getting bigger is both inconvenient and naturally beneficial. For example, an attack that could never be blocked could be used as a shield at the moment!
In desperation, Nelson thrust his knife into the ground and stood upright in front of him, holding the handle in one hand with his left hand and pressing the surface of the knife with all his might. In the next moment, a loud sound of metal clashing was heard, and a huge force came from the knife, and Nelson had already been swept away by the tail of the "Purgatory Demon Wolf"!
Losing his footing, under the irresistible impact, Nelson's body flew upside down like a broken kite, and crashed straight into the cliff! With a bang, countless sand and dust fell, and the whole person was embedded in the rock wall!
The power of the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" is huge, and it can be imagined.
Even if the blade blocks the direct attack, the momentum is still not exhausted. Internal injuries are inevitable, coupled with the shock when hitting the rock wall, I don't know how many bones are broken in the body.
The gorgeous and mighty military uniform was stained with a layer of blood red and a layer of mud and sand, trying to retain three points of sobriety, Nelson bit his lip, although he tried to break free from the rock wall, but in the end he spurted out a mouthful of blood!
In the face of strong enemies at the S-Rank level, those juniors of the melee stream did not play much role. As one of the only two melee core members of the Exploration Team, and as the Captain, she has the responsibility to act as a shield to protect the other members, especially those vulnerable ranged firepower.
In the rear of the "Purgatory Demon Wolf", and she has long been exhausted, she is the only and last shield.
But it really can't be done.
Seeing that the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" was slightly lowered after pumping himself, with a hideous and cruel expression on his face, his eyes were directed at the long-range troops who had been bombarding it violently since the beginning, especially at Akagi, who had shot the most arrows, knowing that Akagi and the others were in danger, Nelson pressed the rock wall with his backhand, trying to push himself out of the rock wall.
With the last of his strength, he finally broke free from the shackles of the rock wall, however, at the same time, as if all his strength had been exhausted, Nelson fell to the ground weakly, his eyes looked up slightly at the field, and he only thought of a word in his heart.
"Admiral, I'm sorry. I've got you covered."
Although the body was still struggling to stand up, it was clear in the mind that everything was in vain.
The only two shields, one is seriously injured, the other is exhausted and stands in the distance and loses the protection of the shield, what will happen to Akagi and the others who are exposed to danger? That's something you don't have to think about to know.
Completely annihilated, this is the end of yourself and others.
I have been in the army for many years, although I have long been prepared for the consciousness that I will die on the battlefield that day, I didn't expect that this day would come so quickly and so humiliating. With a miserable smile on his face, seeing that the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" had already rushed towards Akagi and the others, Nelson also closed his eyes in despair, waiting for his death
"Bang!!"
The earth-shattering sound of a hard object colliding came from in front of him, and the frightened look still stayed on his face.
Akagi stared blankly ahead, the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" that had been rushing towards her honestly had stopped at this moment, and its body was still covered with a thick layer of snowflakes, and half of its body was dyed snow-white.
The snowflakes covered the surface of the "Purgatory Demon Wolf", a thick layer, but it was not instantly vaporized by the hellfire! The side reflects how huge the energy is contained.
The Infernal Wolf's charge was stopped, not because of its own volition, but because it was repelled by a "Ice Splitting Blade" flying from the side. Not to mention losing his balance, he stumbled back a position, and it was just a blow!
The Ice Splitting Blade came from the other side of the forest, and there stood two men there, the gray-haired and double-ponytailed wounded man with the black-haired side ponytail on his back, and the silver-haired one with a knife in his hand.
"Lately, it seems like it's been a last-minute catch-up. It's also a blessing. I've failed enough in my life, and I don't want to add anything to it. "Whispering to himself in a voice as light as a mosquito's chirp.
Including the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" who was frozen half of his body, he felt that everyone present saw him with amazement. Ji Yuehua smiled slightly bitterly, and raised her voice in the direction of Chicheng, "Then according to the convention, I arrived as promised." Miss Akagi, you're not hurt, are you?"
"White hair?! There are also Kaga-chan and Zuizuru-chan!! Why ?!!" Blinking in surprise, Akagi looked at Ji Yuehua and the others in disbelief.
In fact, Akagi is not alone, even Xianghe, Ai Weier and others, their brains can't react to what happened for a while, so they have to look at this side blankly, unable to be calm.
After all, Ji Yuehua has been working for more than half a month, and everyone still knows that the handyman standing in front of her is the new handyman on their ship.
But why is a theory, a theory, a theory, a theory, a non-a war, a fight, a person, a member, and a member here?
Did he swing the "Sky Splitting Blade" just now?
It's also a foolish question
He was the only one of the three to wield a sword, and of course he could only have wielded it.
However, even Nelson, who is a melee ace, can only slightly knock the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" into the "Purgatory Demon Wolf", why can a handyman's "Sky Splitting Blade" blast the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" away?
"What does it mean to be conventional?"
Many questions are haunted in the hearts of everyone. Judging from Ji Yuehua's opening remarks, it seems that Akagi still knows, and of course, everyone's puzzled eyes are also on her, but they don't know that Akagi himself is the most chaotic in his head.
Obviously, the Admiral also testified in person
Didn't this guy only learn kyudo? How do you know how to know the "Sky Splitting Blade"? And how powerful is it to be?
Why did he come with Kaga? Was he the one who saved the two? Kaga was carried by Zuizuru, was he injured? Is it badly hurt?
And what about the agreement?
My heart was in a mess, and in the end, all I asked was what the other party talked about. Akagi's question was exchanged for Ji Yuehua's chuckle, "The so-called heroes always have to protect the people in front of them, this is a conventional thing." Isn't it?"
"Huh?"
"In other words," seeing the expression on Akagi's face becoming more and more incomprehensible, Ji Yuehua shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Although I think I am a waste of firewood, I am grateful to you for treating me as one of the heroes." As a hero, I'm doing my duty now to save people, so it's okay. ”
"You're talking"
What are you talking about?
I originally wanted to say this in my mouth, but before the words reached my throat, a possibility that had been sealed for a while suddenly popped up in my mind, and Akagi swallowed it back before he finished speaking. At this time, Ji Yuehua also happened to continue: "The old man of the East once told me that it doesn't matter what kind of myth stigmata it is, and the suitability of girls is higher. All in all, if you are born a man and you can't even protect the girl in front of you, you are a complete failure. I didn't do it, not even as good as garbage. ”
Memories that I didn't want to think of came back to my mind.
It was as if I could still feel the hot temperature of blood in my hands as I held the girl
It wasn't supposed to be like this
What is lost is irretrievable
Why is it that even though it is not raining, my heart is so cold?
Was it tears that seemed to flow from my eyes?
It's his fault.
"If the duty of a hero is to protect everyone, then I am definitely a disqualified hero who is not even qualified to stand on the battlefield again. But being trusted to such an extent that it would be unjustifiable for me to remain silent and stay out of the matter. ”
When his gaze touched Nelson, who had fallen to the ground, the anger in his eyes intensified.
The voice of the voice was very soft, if it weren't for the fact that the divine stigma strengthened the hearing, perhaps no one could hear what he was saying except for Ji Yuehua himself, who spoke. However, one thing is obvious.
In those eyes with sadness and hatred, there was an extremely resolute look.
"Let's fight! The guy who killed a thousand knives. Raising the light blue blade in his hand, Ji Yuehua pointed to the "Purgatory Demon Wolf" staring at him, "It's changed!" From now on, this will be my occasion. I'm sure you'll never touch a finger of theirs again. ”
