Chapter 95, Night Attack III
readx; "We can no longer let the murderer do whatever he wants!"
When Ecilia said this in front of Francis and Blue, a moment later, a plan was hatched for the psychopathic murderer who was roaming the village and attacking the village. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The plan correctly analyzes the targets and conditions selected by the murderer when attacking the village, as well as the scope and spread trend, and finally derives the next location that must be attacked, and formulates an ambush plan based on this.
The convoy spent half a day rushing to this village surrounded by rare woods in the gray mountains, and then more than thirty knights began to act, pacifying the villagers, arranging secret sentinels and traps, and more than thirty people formed a scattered encirclement network, and the next thing they had to do was wait, waiting for the psychopathic murderer to take the bait.
And they waited for more than three days.
"Could it be that something is wrong with the plan? Or is there an error in our analysis? After three days, even Captain Blue, who was the most confident in the plan, had to feel anxious, he knew very well that he could not continue to wait like this, the main thing in the ambush was to surprise him by surprise, and if he was ambushed in one place for too long, the flaws would become bigger and bigger. And although the villagers are afraid of their force and status, they will also feel dissatisfied with the prolonged siege of the village.
However, Francis and Eicilia didn't think much of it, and the two young men didn't intend to give up just like that, and after several discussions under Bru's bitter persuasion, they finally decided to wait one more day.
And on the night of this last day, after an annoying snowfall, the target finally appeared.
A nimble figure that scurried through the trees at a very fast speed, even surpassing some beasts known for their speed.
After discovering the appearance of the target, Ken, who was hiding in the tree, immediately made an assessment in his mind, and the person with this speed was not something he could match alone, but fortunately he was not fighting alone.
Mimicking the sound of insects in his mouth, signaling his companion the appearance of a target, Ken began to pull out his weapon, a well-maintained Iron Horn Longbow.
Although Ken has been in charge of the food of the convoy, this time due to the lack of manpower, he can only put down the long spoon and pick up the weapon, and under the command of Master Francis, Ken's archery skills are enough to be called the first.
Pulling out a bow and arrow between his fingers and placing it on the bowstring, he then stretched out the iron-horned longbow with the familiar sound of the bow arm bending, and the sharp arrow pierced through the dry branch and aimed at the target in front of him, who had stopped at the edge of the clearing, probing his brain.
As a knight's servant, unlike his young and immature master, who has not yet had blood in his hands, Ken has participated in many battles, so he has nothing to be nervous about, especially when the opponent is a pervert who abuses and kills civilians.
All he had to do now was wait for his companions from elsewhere to crowd around, wait for the signal to move, and then let go of his finger and let the bow and arrow take the enemy's life.
The wait was not long, and a slight birdsong reached Ken's ears, and almost at the same time, Kenn had already let go of his fingers, and in the crisp sound of the bowstring, the bow and arrow instantly swept over the messy branches, flying in a condescending diagonal line towards the target's back.
Hit the target!
Ken whispered in his heart, only if the bow and arrow had shot a normal distance, and the target had not yet made a dodge move, then this sneak attack would be considered a success, and he was very confident in his archery skills.
But in the next moment, Ken's faith was shattered.
In his field of vision, the motionless target suddenly twisted his upper body at an extremely fast speed, and his right arm tilted upwards at forty-five degrees with a backhand, and a snowy sword light drew a neat fan-shaped trajectory, cutting off the bow and arrow that Ken had fired.
Ken's eyes widened for a moment, and then he remembered that he should prepare a second arrow, but by the time he hastily pulled the second bow from his quiver, his target's figure had disappeared into the woods.
…………
"Sneak attack? Ambush? ”
Erwin slashed the bow and arrow from behind with a sword, his body had bounced off the spot, and then shot into the woods like an arrow, relying on the not-so-dense trees to make irregular advances, used to avoid the pursuit of the archers who attacked him.
He immediately thought that it was a trap, and that the murderer was nothing more than a decoy to lure himself into the trap.
But the next moment Erwin overturned this idea, he chased the murderer only because of a very shallow idea, the subjectivity and accident were too high, and no one with a little experience would make such a clumsy bait.
But in any case, Erwin has now entered the trap of others, and he has no intention of being caught until he finds out the identity and purpose of the other party.
Before he could continue to think deeply, a small snowdrift under the tree in front of him suddenly burst open, and in the midst of the fluttering snowflakes, a figure rushed out of it, and the swift speed made the cloak behind him raise high, and the long sword in his hand stabbed forward.
The sword light drew a long, bright and straight line in Erwin's field of vision, and the end of the long line was aimed at his chest.
Erwin calmed down instantly, putting aside all distractions in the back of his head, and in the face of this stabbing similar to the Legion's swordsmanship, Erwin chose to dodge sideways, and the soles of his feet stepped hard at the moment they landed, and the reaction force penetrated through his thighs, allowing his sideways body to counteract the inertia and rush forward again.
The sneak attacker didn't expect the target's movements to be so fast, his body was still in the inertial impact of the forward thrust, and the target was already sideways and rushed to himself and raised his fist.
With a "bang", Erwin smashed a solid punch into the attacker's head, even if the opponent was wearing a helmet, the punch sent his body flying sideways and backwards, smashing into the trunk of a large tree. And after knocking the enemy away with one punch, Erwin did not have the slightest carelessness and immediately jumped forward from the spot.
Just as he was about to leap up, a bow and arrow from among the trees grazed the sole of his shoe and landed where he had been standing.
Missing again, Ken slapped the trunk hard, then immediately gathered up his longbow and climbed down from the tree.
After landing, Erwin did not look back and continued to run, whether the other party was an archer hiding in the shadows or this person hiding under the snow to sneak attack him, they all had very good strength, such a person came more than ten or twenty Elwin has no possibility of head-on conflict and then won, and at the same time, his ears also heard the sound of running on the snow all around, and he was quite familiar with hunting and immediately understood - an encirclement was forming, and the number was not less than twenty!
Erwin didn't have time to complain about anything else, he only knew that he had to escape before the encirclement was closed, and if everyone on the other side had the same strength as the sneak attacker just now, then Erwin's fate would only be captured.
There was a sudden clattering sound overhead, and the snowflakes that had accumulated on the branches of the trees fell, and a second sneak attacker appeared, and Erwin didn't need to look up to know that the other party was hiding in the tree, and he could stop his escape by jumping down and pressing down with his body.
Erwin had no intention of entanglement with the sneak attacker, he used one foot to perform the skill of critical hit, stepping on the hard ground buried deep under the snow into a deep pit, and with the help of the recoil force, the whole person burst out like an arrow from the Xuan, plowing a long straight line in the snow, dodging the enemies who jumped down from the trees.
There was a clear shouting and scolding from behind, and it should feel very uncomfortable to jump down from a tree and smash on the ground, but the sneak attacker was not happy Erwin was also unhappy at this time, because the sound of running from all around was getting denser and denser, and it was obvious that although the other party's speed was not as fast as his, it was not much worse, especially on this kind of snow that was about to submerge his knees, so that Erwin's speed after performing iron swordsmanship was greatly affected.
And from time to time you have to dodge bows and arrows from behind.
"If only Susan were here."
Erwin couldn't help but think that with Susan's archery skills, combined with his melee strength, it was impossible for him to be chased away like he was now.
An enemy wearing a cloak appeared in front of him again, but this time Erwin had to slow down his running speed, whether it was the opponent's tall and burly body or the fierce battle intent, it made people clearly feel that this guy was not simple, and more importantly, the other party was holding a long javelin in his hand.
"!"
When he saw the javelin clearly, Erwin couldn't help but curse in his heart, and at the same time his body slammed to the side.
The next moment, the sharp javelin grazed Elwin's side with a whistling sound, and the head of the spear was driven deep into the trunk of a large tree.
Erwin rolled twice on the ground, and as soon as he rose his head, the enemy who had projected the javelin had already rushed to Elwin across the distance between them, and slashed down at him with a sword.
