Chapter 40: Debunking Tricks and Confrontation (Part II)
Robert's men surrounded and slowly approached, and a half-moon-shaped encirclement slowly formed.
Lynn saw the other party approaching.
Give the final order.
"Do it!"
"Die. One of Robert's guards stabbed his spear at the Cavalry, who parried with his long knife and kicked the heavily armored soldier first.
In the midst of the scuffle, a throwing axe was thrown at Lynn,
The axe arced and slashed straight at Lynn's head.
Shi Fu dodged and jumped out, stretched out his chain mail arm to catch it out of thin air, and reflexively threw it back with all his might.
The short-handled axe made of stainless steel was thrown out by the stone man, and it was a few points faster than when it came.
Robert dodged the dagger thrown by Shifu sideways.
However, the guards behind him were not so lucky.
The axe store through his iron armor and plunged into his chest, staggering and falling to the ground.
The two sides fought each other in close combat.
The screech of metal clashes of slashing and stabbing each other, mixed with wails and groans of pain, played a symphony of battle.
Shi Fu took the lead and greeted him.
Several of Robert's guards stabbed him in the abdomen with spears, and Shifu turned to dodge, their spears brushing against the chain mail on his abdomen, making a metallic grinding sound.
Then, Shi Fu grabbed the body of the spear that passed through the side of the abdomen with his left hand, pulled it back, and drew his sword with his right hand, slashing it at the face of the nearest Robb guard.
The guards howled, leaving a trail of blood.
Four soldiers of the Cavalry Regiment form a basic defensive formation.
After being promoted to Level 2 Explosives, their abilities in all aspects have increased by breakthroughs, including the improvement of formation ability.
Their mission is to defend against any enemy who tries to get close to Lynn.
Sir Duncan had been standing in front of Lynn, and now his goal was to be covered in bronze armor, like Robert Royal, who had descended from the Bronze Demon God.
"Duncan, are you sure you want to stop me?" Robert said coldly.
"I serve the master. ”
The two glanced at each other, and they both saw determination in each other's eyes.
The knight's sword versus the steel longsword, at first, they tested each other's flaws, and soon, the battle entered the white heat.
Robert had an absolute armor advantage, and the Royce family had a number of ancestral bronze armors engraved with magic charms that were said to protect the warriors inside from harm.
In fact, it is only necessary to add some metal plates to the more vulnerable parts of the body such as shoulders, elbows, knees, and even the head to increase protection.
Although, Lynn felt that it must be very uncomfortable to be stuffed in the airtight metal armor.
It must be admitted, however, that the defensive effect is obvious.
Duncan's several effective breakthroughs failed to cause a very effective break in the bronze armor.
The tall Duncan kicked Robert away, and in the interval between Roblet's body retreating, he raised his knight's sword high and took advantage of the situation to chase and slash.
Robert's body briefly lost its balance in the air, and he didn't have time to raise his sword to block.
The knight's sword fell, with a sharp metal tearing sound, and finally, a deep furrow cracked in the center of the bronze shoulder armor and the protective plate, revealing the skin inside.
The edge of the sword was only a few centimeters from the skin on Rob's shoulder.
Duncan held his sword in both hands and pressed down, and Robert the Bronze Knight, he could only keep retreating.
As long as he stopped, his shoulder would be cut off at any moment by the sharp knight's sword, and a whole piece of flesh from his shoulder blade would be sliced off.
Robert kept retreating, retreating.
until it hits the wooden wall behind it.
Only then did he take advantage of the weight of the wall to prop up Duncan's knight's sword, but Robert was greeted by a fierce kick from the tall Duncan's long legs.
The powerful and heavy soles of the chain mail struck Luo Ba's abdomen.
The bronze armored figure suddenly slammed through the unsturdy wooden wall, flew upside down, and fell on the street outside the tavern.
Sawdust and lime powder suddenly spread.
The air was cloudy.
Duncan failed to pursue further.
He was met from the side by several Robert guards and tangled in the broken walls of the tavern.
Lynn's eyes lit up.
He drew the Valyrian Shortblade and shouted, "Kill it." ”
Hood, the leader of the guards, took the lead and cleared a path with his attendants.
Lynn's men, forming a defensive formation, broke through the door.
Soon there were several Robt guards with shields and spears, intending to break into the defensive formation,
However, the soldiers of the Cavalry Regiment and the knight Shifu who fought together did not give them a chance.
Lynn and his party fought to the point where the wall was broken.
Of the eight robb-armoured guards, only five remained, and three of the squires Lynn had brought into the city dead.
Fortunately, Duncan, Shifu, and the leaders of the guards, Hood and Rodat, were still unharmed.
Ahead was the street, and the thick armor of Robbit's guards limited their mobility.
As long as you enter the empty street, whether it is to escape or fight, it will not be as confined as in the original small space.
Lynn breathed a sigh of relief.
Robert was now lying in the middle of the street, his shoulder just a little flesh sliced, but his abdomen hurt a little because of Duncan's powerful kick.
The streets were sparsely populated, and most of the residents left this place with interest as early as when Robert's guards chased them out of the streets and slashed the sailors.
"My lord, do you want to kill him. Hood looked around vigilantly and asked, pointing to Robert who had fallen to the ground.
Dogs barked in the distance.
Under the light of the torches, a team of knights flickered like a stream of fireflies, and the hooves of horses rumbled against the bluestone floor of the street.
A black sluice stood in front of a white crescent, lined with bronze on a purple background, with a runic coat of arms engraved on their chests.
A cavalry team from the Royce family branch of Moongate Fort rushed in.
The cavalry divided Lynn and Robert into two distinct sides.
Robert, who fell to the ground, was picked up by one of the dismounted knights of the Moon Gate Fort, who gritted his teeth and said to the knight, "Kill them for me." ”
The knight of Moongate Fort did not follow Robert's instructions, helped Robert onto his horse, and shook his head to indicate that it was not his task.
He reminded, "Sir Robert, the ship to the Storm's Rest Fortress is about to leave. ”
Robert took off the bronze mask and threw it on the ground, took a sip fiercely, looked at Lynn and Duncan and his party, and said with a cruel smile: "We will meet again." ”
Then, he left with the knights and his guards.
———
The gate of the castle of the lord of Runestone City slowly opened, and a team of twenty knights with bright armor lined up.
Count Jon, the lord of Ruepstone City, who was riding on a Doskra warhorse, rushed out of the castle before the knights followed.
The earl's eldest son, Anda Royce, the heir of Runestone City, stood quietly on the balcony on the second floor and watched this scene.
"My brother Robert will be brought back by his father, right?"
The rickety old man took off his cloak, revealing a pale face, and sneered: "When will the heir of the Royce family be so afraid of losing the inheritance, but you can rest assured, Sir Robert will definitely board the ship to Storm's End on time." ”
