Chapter 168: Repulsion
In this short charge of a few seconds, with the IQ of the jackal, it is destined to be impossible to think carefully.
Instinctively, they rushed together towards the open that Luo Ming guarded.
However, Luo Ming himself is even more dangerous than the ignorant Cang Yan!
"Humph......"
Luo Ming vibrated the long sword in his hand at a frequency that was imperceptible to the naked eye, and at the same time, it swung the long sword in a complex trajectory.
At first it was a breeze, then it quickly turned into a roaring wind, all swirling around the blade. The metal of the blade let out a subtle wail.
This move certainly has some damage to the sword body, but as long as it is not used frequently, the sword can always last for a while - compared to its lethality, this loss is not worth mentioning!
Just as he was about to collide with the gnoll, and even a short spear was thrown over, about to stab Luo Ming's body, he no longer controlled the vibration of the long sword in his hand, and released all the wind power that had accumulated for a long time!
Syllable!
It was as if it was a tiny explosion, and waves of air burst from all sides of the sword.
Leaves, weeds, and even branches were all blown apart, and the dust was ten meters away, and the short spear that flew towards him lost its aim and stuck to the ground on one side.
At the same time, there are also jackals with blood.
With a wail, the flesh of the four gnolls was not only torn apart, but also rolled backwards by the strong impact of the wind, and one of them even flew up, knocking down his charging companion.
It's like smashing it with the hammer of a storm, especially for these gnolls who don't wear any decent armor and weigh less than humans, the lethality is unquestionable.
The charge of the jackals was originally quite neat and well-coordinated, but when Luo Ming hit him on the head, there was a moment of chaos.
"Kill!"
Luo Ming let out a loud shout, his tongue bloomed with thunder, and at the same time, his body also acted in response to this shout.
The body and sword flickered, turning into a cold light, and at this time, even the figure holding the sword was almost invisible, and without any of the jackals reacting, two of their companions had already opened huge wounds, let out a silent wail, and fell to the ground.
After killing the two gnolls, Luo Ming's sword power was also consumed a lot, so he stopped directly - he was in the encirclement of the gnolls at this moment.
If it was on the battlefield, Luo Ming would definitely not use his body and sword as casually as he did now.
This blow looks cool, but it consumes a lot of physical strength, not to mention, it will also make you too fast for a short period of time, and you will lose touch with your companions who can cover you.
The performance is so eye-catching, and it is easy to be targeted by the enemy together, and it happens that at that time, after using the sword together, it consumes a lot of physical strength, and if you can't keep up with it in one breath, you may die.
However, dealing with this group of gnolls, Luo Ming has a lot less scruples.
In an instant, a blue Dou Qi shield appeared beside him, and at the same time, he completely ignored the gnolls' attacks on him, gave up his defense, and slashed his sword with all his might.
A closer look at this close-up shows that although some of these gnolls are still naked, some of them are dressed in cloth or even leather armor. Except for a few who use wooden sticks, some use short spears, some use short swords, daggers, etc., and even with their bare hands, at least they have sharp claws.
In addition, they are a little smaller than humans, and at the same time, there can be six or seven of them surrounding the same person to attack.
As the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat four hands, and if ordinary people are surrounded by them, unless they are wearing a complete body of plate armor, no matter how brave and good they are, they will suffer.
Although Luo Ming had plate armor, he didn't usually use that thing. At this time, it is necessary to rely on the unique fighting spirit shield of the sword master to deal with the urgency of the moment!
Whether it is a stab, a slash, or a blunt blow, when it hits the Dou Qi shield, it can only bring some ripples at best, but cannot completely penetrate.
Before Luo Ming's own fighting spirit was exhausted, this was equivalent to a layer of iron armor defense. Don't look at the armor in literary works, it seems that it has always been an ornament, in reality, ordinary soldiers can't cut through iron armor with all their strength.
At this moment, there were already three gnolls who were wounded and retreated, and Luo Ming deliberately did not kill them, but left scars on their bodies that were just up to the standard of heavy damage, and they would not die for a while.
The larger guy at the head of the gnoll rushed forward from the side, holding a logging axe that flashed with cold light in his hand, and slashed at Luo Ming's waist!
Looking closely, there was a faint vindictive spirit on it - this was completely enough to break through Luo Ming's defenses.
However, since most of the gnolls were unable to break through the defenses, Luo Ming naturally focused his attention on the few enemies who threatened him, and he was already prepared for this blow.
"Hah!" Luo Ming blocked the wood cutting axe with the spine of his sword, knocking it at a slight angle, grazing Luo Ming's body.
At the same time, a tiny flame spark was blown out of his mouth and smashed into the other party's face.
This jackal had already seen Luo Ming Cangyan's viciousness like a tarsal bone just now, and he didn't dare to be careless at all, so he rolled directly to the side and dodged two meters.
At this time, Luo Ming's fighting energy had already consumed a full half.
However, he also succeeded in attracting the attention of the jackals.
Behind him, next to the campfire, there were already more than a dozen people picking up weapons one after another and killing this way.
"Hey!" like a seventy-yard car rushing forward, Granty's body also flashed with a fighting light, and crashed directly into the crowd of jackals from the side, disrupting the encirclement of Lockin.
Immediately behind her, several rays of fighting light flickered, and other weapons flashed and reflected in the dawn.
More than a dozen people joined the battle, and for the Gnolls, not only did it become impossible to eliminate Luo Ming, wasting their strength in vain, but they also completely lost the suddenness of this raid.
There is not much difference in the number of people on the two sides, and the jackals are already a little smaller than the average person, which is also reflected in the physical strength, and if they continue to fight, they will only suffer.
The leader of the gnolls roared as he retreated, and the gnolls resisted a little twice, as if in amnesty, and then fled in all directions.
Scatter and flee...... It's really a beast. However, it was a clever ploy, and after the jackals scurried into the forest from different directions, for a while everyone did not know which direction to pursue.
"Wake me up if I haven't woken up, wash my face with cool water, and prepare breakfast for those who have woken up.
When it's daylight, we'll set out to chase them - they can't escape!"
Luo Ming put his sword back into its sheath and began to give orders calmly as if nothing had happened.
The people who had just woken up and were still a little overwhelmed immediately regained their composure.
