Volume 1 [Border Clouds] Chapter 160 Strange Shu Huang and Xiao Zhengtai

Five minutes ago, the Wood Elf reconnaissance team from Elsa Village had just finished gathering, and the teams were silently scattered out of the village under the cover of night...

After Lando is scolded by Brudy, Nata takes over his mission. But it is said that it is to bring people to investigate, in fact, the wood elves do not have a particularly strict sense of division of labor, and they all rely on instinct to carry out the orders of the village chief.

There was a small episode in this - Hugo, who had been watching for a day and was about to change the guard and rest, mixed into the team when Nata was about to leave the village, apparently he had an unusual obsession with finding human traces and the like, and Nata didn't bother to talk nonsense, acquiesced to the other party's joining, and quickly let them disperse in the jungle.

Hugo, who is only sixteen years old, can only be regarded as a child among the wood elves, but he is a strong advocate of "settling accounts with humans" among the wood elves. It stands to reason that the wood elves are generally peaceful, but apparently this is also a situation - Ax and Hugo have always had a good relationship, and the little Hugo almost treats Ax as a brother, and now that such a thing has happened, the upright Hugo immediately has a great hatred for humans in his heart

"If you encounter it, you must let them know the power of the Dao Wood Elf"

Hugo thought to himself. Although he understands that his archery skills and hunting skills can't catch up with Lando, he thinks that he is definitely outstanding among the juniors, especially the rapid-fire skills that have been honed for a long time, and if he encounters humans, he will definitely catch the opponent off guard

With such confidence and a vengeful rage, he quickly moved away from the village of Elsa, and by great coincidence... It didn't take long for him to catch an unexpected glimpse of the orange glow of a campfire in the woodland.

It's a human camp

His heart immediately became excited, Hugo put the arrow in his hand, raised his short bow slightly, slowed down his footsteps, and breathed his breath. After holding his breath, he could even hear his heart beating. Biting his lower lip, Hugo's eyes were fixed on the place where the light came from in front of him, wondering how many humans would be here, but when he walked around a thick tree and saw the scene in front of him, he was frozen there for a moment...

In the field of vision, the four humans in front of the campfire are making a gesture of preparing for battle - three fierce men with long swords are saying something to a human in a cloak with a playful face, and when Hugo carefully identifies it, the anger in his heart suddenly surges...

These three guys are the same humans who attacked Aix today

In the morning, Nata was the first to break the siege, and when Hugo and the other wood elves hurried in, it was a few humans in front of him who threw down Ex, cursing and running away... Hugo will never forget their ugly faces

Thinking of this, Hugo immediately raised his hand and aimed at the guy in the middle of the three, the bowstring was pulled to the corner of his mouth and was about to shoot, but he didn't know that the stalemate scene in front of him was suddenly broken by the guy in the cloak without warning

"Phew"

The three mercenaries were talking with a sinister smile on their faces, but Roddy's raised leg had already kicked the man in the middle out of the way

There was no warning of this action, it was as fast as thunder, and the smiles of the remaining two mercenaries were still on their faces, but the companions had already flown three or four meters sideways...

A second later, the muffled sound of their bodies hitting Shu Yu made them realize the problem - they were also experienced in combat, and immediately took a step back to each side, and swung the long sword in his hand at Roddy, and swept up and down

Seeing this, Luo Di didn't hide at all, crossed his hands, directly pulled out the two heavy scimitars at his waist, stretched out his arms, and the thick cloak that was not tightly tied was blown back directly by the burst of breath-

"Knort"

With the two knives in hand, the attacks of the two mercenaries were directly blocked by Roddy, and the huge shock force almost made the long sword in their hands fly out of their hands.

Roddy didn't say a word, the berserker's starting hand swinged directly, and according to the mercenary's body, he began an explosive attack with an astonishing frequency and strength - the "crackling" sound exploded in the forest in an instant

The strength of the advanced Luo Di is completely a full step compared to before, and in the face of the two mercenaries who have advanced to about level 10, he has more than enough to pack up

"Uhh

However, the fourth knife waved, a mercenary who was desperately trying to block was smashed by this powerful scimitar and lost his center of gravity, and fell directly to the ground, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to support the ground, but saw a cold light flash, and his arm flew out in front of him...

"Plop"

His upper body fell to the ground, and before he could shout, he saw Roddy's right scimitar following, and when he lifted it, it directly slashed his left calf out of the ground

The screams immediately startled a group of birds.

The only remaining mercenary wanted to support his companions, but he couldn't even get close in front of the double blades, so he had to take a few steps back and shout: "Come and help"

Apparently he was shouting the two companions who stayed not far away before, and after shouting, he desperately retreated, trying to get out of the range of Roddy's attack, but he didn't know that Roddy suddenly jumped, and jumped forward four meters in place, as if flying in front of him...

"Poof"

With a shock to his body, he looked at the hilt of the knife inserted into his chest, opened his mouth wide and wanted to speak, but only made a strange sound...

Hugo, who saw this scene next to him, opened his mouth slightly, and although he held the bow in his hand, he didn't know who to aim at - in just six seconds, the three culprits who attacked Ax fell to the ground: the first one to be kicked was struggling to get up, the mercenary who had his hands and legs cut off was wailing in pain, and the guy who was pierced through the chest by the scimitar fell to the ground with a "plop" and lost his breath.

It's so strong

Although the Wood Elves mostly use short bows, they are not ignorant of melee combat. It's just that Roddy's way of fighting with such a wide opening and closing and defeating the opponent with an advantage in strength and strength really brought a great shock to Hugo - the scimitar was like an arm in Roddy's hands, and the thick blade made Hugo feel... If you fight him in close combat, I'm afraid you won't be able to resist even a knife

However, the short bow in his hand was still Hugo's escape from the suffocating momentum - as long as there was a bow, no matter how strong such a human was...

Thinking so in his heart, Hugo still stiffened his movements and took two steps back, just as he was thinking about pulling the bow again and aiming at the only remaining human, but found that the battle just now... It seems that it is far from over.

Roddy turned around and glanced at the darkness in the distance, threw away the double knives casually, and made a somersault directly backwards - two flying dark arrows flew past his body at this time, and nailed to the tree with two "aggressive" sounds

At the end of the somersault, Roddy was short, reached out and pulled out the dagger on his waist and threw it violently, and the mercenary who was the first to be kicked and stood up at this time and wanted to rush over was poofed through his head with a "poof", and fell straight down in the plasma splash...

At the same moment, Roddy had already rolled sideways to the side, reaching out and grabbing the [Ice Crystal Thorn] and the quiver

Hugo's eyes widened and he was tense as he witnessed everything, he never thought that this human with two knives would use a bow, and the instinctive sense of crisis made him aim the arrow at Roddy, but Roddy coincidentally moved half a step and stood in the blind spot behind a tree, making Hugo lose his goal...

Hugo frowned, and moved to the side with a step, ready to find a suitable position to continue aiming at this guy, but then he heard five consecutive very short bowstring hums...

Will he shoot rapidly?

As this information reacted in his mind, Hugo felt a sudden suffocation rise in his chestโ€”he couldn't reach it with all his might, because of this terrible rate of fire

But then the question arises: what is he shooting at that side?

When Hugo heard screams in the darkness, he noticed that there were two humans standing in the distance... This fact made Hugo feel irrepressible "ashamed"... Not only could this human clearly distinguish the enemy that even the wood elves with strong night vision could not notice, but also listen to the muffled sound of the arrows entering the flesh, and none of the five arrows missed

Hugo only felt that everything in front of him had become unreal.

As Roddy shot five arrows in a row, the two mercenaries in the distance fell to the ground wailing, and they didn't know where they were shot. And when Hugo's eyes turned to Roddy's position just now, he was surprised to find... It was empty.

What's going on?

All that was left was the screams and muffled snorts of the mercenaries lying on the ground, but Hugo found that he could not detect the slightest superfluous movement, and the powerful human had disappeared as if he had disappeared into thin air

When Nata was confronted with this situation, she instinctively chose to dodge, but Hugo was young after all, and he stepped forward to find out - and then, naturally, he paid the price for such an act...

The jumping bonfire stretched Hugo's shadow for a long time, and in the orange-toned light, the corpses lying on the ground and the seriously wounded mercenaries exuded an unconcealable smell of blood. Stepping forward, the young wood elf with almost silent steps was vigilant against all the places around him that might hide enemies, but as he walked so cautiously, a familiar word suddenly came from his ear-

"Hey, I don't mean anything malicious."

Hearing this elven phrase, Hugo was so frightened that he turned around and threw down his bowstring, and before he could even see the target, he shot the arrow out of the bow, then threw away the bow, drew his dagger and prepared for melee combat...

Roddy barely moved in front of Hugo, and the arrow was so crooked that he didn't even dodge. Seeing the panicked look of Hugo taking out the dagger in front of him, Roddy folded his arms and blinked, but he said something in Elven language that made the wood elf stupid in place:

"You're Hugo, aren't you?"

Hugo, who was already ready to fight the enemy, was stunned for a moment, he was too young and not tall, and he needed to tilt his head slightly when looking at Roddy. After staring at Roddy's face with wide eyes, Hugo's expression was suddenly wonderful, and he stammered: "You, you are... Today, that human being? โ€

"Yes, and you can see it, I have no ill will towards you."

Roddy pointed to the mercenaries next to him, dead or alive, "By the way, did these guys provoke you?" โ€

Hugo's expression was dull, and he nodded mechanically, only feeling that his back was soaked with cold sweat.

Confirming this, Luo Di suddenly acted like a strange man, and said to the "Zhengtai" in front of him with a smile on his face: "So, for the sake of me helping the wood elf solve a few flies, can you help me bring a letter to the village chief of Brudi?" โ€

Hugo swallowed hard - he instinctively wanted to shake his head, wood elves and humans are two races after all, this kind of estrangement makes it difficult for him to communicate with humans, he even wanted to scold a few words, and then turned around and left...

But his eyes swept over the short bow that flashed with light blue light in Roddy's hand, and then looked at the mercenaries who were dying miserably next to him, Hugo, who had always prided himself on being brave, only felt... It seems that he is facing an "unusually difficult" decision.
