Chapter 14: The Battle Is Over, and the Meritorious Deeds Are Rewarded
Blood trickled down from the blade, and there was a crater on the sword that was almost pierced by the fierce exchange of swords. All signs show how fierce the battle was just now. Of course, it also vaguely indicates that the blacksmith's craftsmanship in Jack's town is not very good.
Cao Zhongsheng gasped and put the damaged iron sword in his hand still on the ground, picked up another relatively intact iron sword, and staggered a few steps to a relatively clean place and sat down. The thrilling scene of Fang Cai is still playing back in Cao Zhongsheng's mind.
After using the Domineering Blade to kill the third bandit, Cao Zhongsheng was ready to fish in troubled waters and no longer grab heads, otherwise killing too many enemies would cause unnecessary trouble. Among the seven emotions and six desires of human beings, jealousy is one of them. It's better to leave a few heads for the other guards, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.
Cao Zhongsheng was right to think so, but he didn't expect the reaction of the bandits. If it weren't for Cao Zhongsheng jumping out to stir up the situation when the bandit leader raided Aditus, Adites would never have that glimmer of life, and there is a chance that Dorian would be able to use the impact of his war horse to slash Ades with a single sword, and no matter how fast the town's support is, it will be useless.
However, it failed, just because of the appearance of Cao Zhongzhong.
So after Dorian and Adeven fought each other and suffered heavy losses at the same time, Edgar, facing an ambush, knew that he had no time to kill Aditus. He could only rush to Dorion's side, grab the languishing Adorian and flee towards the periphery.
Well, then Edgar deliberately picked the direction of Cao Zhongsheng to break through.
Even at the knight level, Edgar, who is considered a leader, is a complete slaughter in the face of ordinary town guards. There was almost no pause where the horses passed, and the guards were not only unable to stop but were severely wounded, and the swords pierced the guards with precision, and blood shot out.
When Cao Zhongsheng reacted, it was too late to escape, and Edgar's locked killing machine stimulated Cao Zhongsheng's hairs to stand up, which also aroused Cao Zhongsheng's ferocity.
Quickly picked up an iron knife on the ground where his owner had died, and threw it at Edgar with all his strength in an attempt to cause some trouble for Edgar. Then, Cao Zhongsheng held an iron sword and slashed directly at the leg of Edgar's war horse with a domineering blade.
If you want to kill me, then stay and talk about it!
Cao Zhongsheng, who was blessed by the domineering blade, instantly clashed with the oncoming Edgar. Edgar's bayonet sword struck the thrown iron knife with incomparable precision in mid-air, and then stabbed into Cao Zhongsheng's heart like a poisonous snake.
A deadly sense of crisis swept through Cao Zhongsheng's heart! If he insisted on cutting off the horse's leg with this sword, he would definitely be pierced through the heart by Edgar!
Niang Xipi, scolding, Cao Zhongsheng took advantage of the situation to change the direction of the iron sword, and used the blade of the iron sword to block Edgar's stabbing blow in the electric light.
Like an iron nail nailed into a wooden plank, the stabbing sword fiercely pierced into the sword god of the iron sword, stabbing a small hole. Edgar was surprised to see that the blow was ineffective, and at the same time, his killing intent towards Cao Zhongsheng became even stronger.
If you don't kill this son, you will become a knight in time! At that time, it will be even more difficult for Edgar and their bandits to plunder Jack's territory. Kill Cao Zhongsheng!
Ed strengthened his line to withdraw the bayonet sword, and he had to use his combat skills to kill Cao Zhongzhong. However, with a soft "boom", a sharp arrow flew straight towards Edgar's throat. Under the threat of his life, Edgar couldn't care about Cao Zhongsheng, so he could only shoot down the arrow with his backhand first. By the time the arrow was shot down, Edgar had already rushed past the small area where Cao Zhongsheng was.
There is no chance, unless Edgar is willing to risk his life and rush back to the battlefield to forcibly kill Cao Zhongsheng, but in that case, Edgar will definitely not have another chance to break through, and it is almost certain that he will be besieged and killed. The three knights led by Jack are not vegetarians.
With a final look at Cao Zhongsheng with murderous intent, Edgar fled with Odorian on horseback.
Cao Zhongsheng, who escaped death, sat on the ground and hurried to recover his strength, although the bandits on the battlefield had been killed, but Cao Zhongsheng did not forget that he participated in the war as a serf, and he was not sure that any of the guards who knew Cao Zhongsheng saw that he was unhappy and came up to him with a knife to steal his merits. The most important thing is that Cao Zhongsheng felt a malice from the rear, it was malice from the knight of Zeko, undisguised and menacing!
Although Cao Zhongsheng was about to greet Cai Ke's ancestor for the eighteenth generation in his heart, what kind of hatred and grudge did he keep staring at Cao Zhongsheng? If you want to kill me, can't you tell me the reason?
It didn't matter what he thought in his heart, but Cao Zhongsheng still had to pretend not to notice it on his face. His performance was definitely impressive tonight, and if he showed a keen sense of perception, it was likely that Zeiko would take more aggressive action against him. Hide clumsy, hide clumsy, now is not the time to expose all your strength, and it doesn't make much difference if it is exposed, but you still can't beat Cai Ke.
After a short rest, the guards all ended the battle. Adeven stepped forward in blood-stained iron armor and began to line up the guards. One of the other four knights hurried back to the town with Aditus, who had been badly wounded and already unconscious, to find a doctor. The remaining two knights rode behind Adivan and followed Adivon's movements, including Knight Zeco.
Cao Zhongsheng saw that the whole team had started and hurriedly stood up, found the last inconspicuous position of the team and walked over. The team formed a crooked team, and it took nearly ten minutes to complete.
When Cao Zhongsheng complained about the quality of Jack's guards, Adeven began to speak.
"Tonight! We thwarted the raids of the Dorian bandits once again, and won a good defensive counterattack. Now, let's start to reward the meritorious deeds! The soldiers who killed the enemy tonight stand up in the ranks!" Adeven didn't look burly, but his voice was surprisingly loud.
Hearing this, Cao Zhongsheng immediately stood up, knowing that it was up to him to see what he could gain from his desperate efforts tonight.
There were only about thirty of the more than forty guards left at the time of the ambush at this time, and a total of nine people stood up with Cao Zhongsheng.
Adeven looked at the nine guards who stood up with appreciation, and it was not until he saw Cao Zhongsheng, who was dressed in yellow skin and black hair, who was completely different from the others, that his eyes froze.
"You are not among my guards, are you?" Adeven looked at Cao Zhongsheng and asked.
"Lord Knight, I am a serf in the territory. When I got up in the middle of the night to pee tonight, I saw a fire in the town, and I was worried that something would happen in the town, so I rushed over with a scythe to help. Killed several bandits by chance. Cao Zhongsheng replied in a respectful tone.
"Oh, yes, courage is commendable! So how many bandits have you killed?" Adeven was slightly surprised when he heard Cao Zhongsheng's reply, he didn't expect that this yellow-skinned serf would have the courage to fight for the town, and he had some good feelings for Cao Zhongzhong in his heart. Although Adeven is inevitably a little prejudiced against the yellow race, he is still very generous and has some experience and talent in employing people, which is why Baron Jack will appoint Adeven as the captain of the Cavaliers.
"Master Knight, I killed a total of three bandits. Cao Zhongsheng continued to answer, but he didn't know that this sentence caused an uproar among the people around.
