Chapter Seventy-Three: Bloody Night (1)
"This mercenary is finished!"
Almost as Thorge's thought flashed, an exclamation rang out from the crowd.
It is the junction of the central city and the downtown area, and there are many pedestrians. Not only did Thorge recognize the attacker as the Dark Serpent of the Barnes & Nobles, but many of the mercenaries, freelancers, and nobles in the crowd also recognized him.
The Black Snake joined the Barnes & Noble family ten years ago. Before that, he was already an assassin in the underworld who had made a name for himself.
No one knows the real name of this man. Few people have seen him in real terms. His countenance and figure were forever obscured by a tattered cloak like strips of cloth.
This man has an eccentric temper and a cold and cruel personality. Often, just because someone looked at him curiously, he would quietly take people away and choose a remote place to torture them to death. And the assassination missions he took over often appeared to kill the entire family of the target person.
The reason is just that he can't stop killing it.
The fighting spirit and martial arts cultivated by the Black Demon Snake were different. Obviously he uses a two-handed heavy sword, but he takes a feminine route, and the way he fights is extremely weird. In addition, he is extremely fast and comes and goes without a trace, so he has gradually become a figure among the dark mercenaries in the underground world that no one wants to provoke.
However, after walking at night for a long time, you will eventually meet ghosts. The arrogant and cruel character of the Black Devil Serpent also brought him a disaster later.
Because he tortured and killed the son of a great nobleman in a conflict, he was met with an almost endless hunt by that family. At the same time, his head was on the assassination list, and a reward of up to 300,000 Jin Lulang was offered.
The Black Snake fled for three whole years, killing countless people who tried to take other people's heads. But after all, he was forced to a dead end. And at this time, the Bano family recruited him to his command, and with his arrogance and strength, he put down the family that was chasing and killing the Black Devil Snake. Let it die.
Since then, the Black Snake has become one of the most loyal lackeys of the Barnes & Nobles.
With the Bano family as the backstage, this madman is even more unscrupulous, not only with the support of the Bano family's resources, but also with the support of the Bano family's resources, his killing methods are becoming more and more cruel and crazy. Over the years. I don't know how many people died in his hands.
The current Black Devil Snake already has the strength of the five-star peak of glory, and it is only one step away from being promoted to the Great Light Knight.
This also proved that the Barnes & Nobles' investment in him was worth it.
Moreover, many people have heard that in terms of actual combat effectiveness, he is actually not inferior to a Great Light Knight. Especially in terms of assassination, as long as he takes the lead. Unleashing his terrifying heavy sword, knights below the Great Light level are almost certain to die!
Because of this, when they saw the young just knight mercenary being cornered, no one thought that he would survive.
The scene at this moment is grand and poignant.
The black giant sword was like a meteor shooting in the sky, shattering everywhere it passed. Broken flesh, water from the canal. and the bricks and rubble of the collapsed houses, creating a huge tide of mixed colors in mid-air. Overwhelming.
And in front of this qiē was the young mercenary.
At this moment, he looked like a fish in a huge net.
However, at this critical moment, Thorge and the others found that Leo did not have any panic on his face. I saw him step on the volley under his feet, and then, his flying figure. It was like a piece of paper that had been rolled up by a gust of wind, and it soared two meters upward.
With a height of two meters, the Black Demon Snake's giant sword completely fell below him.
This is...... Elf's Floating Step?!
The crowd let out a sudden exclamation.
Before the exclamation landed, everyone saw that the young mercenary's body had stagnated in the air. Then it soared into the sky like an arrow, and in a flash along the steep slope of the stone wall, it had already passed through the gap between the two houses on the upper hillside, and disappeared.
Boom!
The huge black sword crashed directly into the stone wall, and the huge impact force blasted the stone wall out of a large hole, and the stones collapsed, and countless pieces of rubble exploded in all directions, and the dust covered the sky and the sun, rolling up and down along the path.
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
If you change to yourself, I'm afraid there won't be even scum left at this time. And that young mercenary was able to escape from the inevitable sword of the Black Demon Snake.
"What's that footwork?"
"I don't know, the first one should be a floating step, and I haven't seen the second one. ”
"It's so powerful, it's like an arrow, and it disappears when you shoot it. ”
There was a lot of excitement in the discussion.
However, everyone didn't notice that in the crowd, a female elf dressed as a mercenary reached out to cover her mouth, her pointed ears trembled quickly with excitement, and her eyes were full of disbelief.
"The god of life is above, what do I see? It's the arrow step in the clouds! Our elven clan has been lost for hundreds of years of secret footwork!"
The elf took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and carefully recalled the scene of the young mercenary rising into the sky just now.
"Yes, I read that right. This kind of footwork is so old that even most of the people don't know it anymore. I also happened to read a description of this footwork in an old temple book. What the book says is exactly the same as what this man has done!"
Thinking of this, the female elf's body couldn't help but tremble.
She quickly made up her mind, gritted her teeth, walked to a remote place, took out a twig of the tree of life from her bosom, held it in her palm, and silently recited the incantation in her mouth.
A moment later, a few strands of green light rose from her palm, wrapping around the twigs. Two small shoots quickly popped out of the branches, and then quickly grew into two leaves.
The elf bit his finger and wrote a few words on the leaves with blood.
The blood sank into the leaves, and the leaves quickly dissipated into a little starlight.
And almost at the same time, in the elven station in the woods north of the city, an elven elder sitting in a tent closed his eyes as if sensing something, and then opened them quickly.
When she opened her eyes again, her beautiful and clear pupils had turned into nothingness.
The light in his eyes flickered, and a little bit of starlight came together and turned into two leaves. The words that appeared on the leaves were written by the female elf in blood.
"The Lost Arrow in the Clouds!"
As soon as he saw the words on the leaves, the elven elder stood up violently. With a gesture of her hand, a staff flew into her hand, and she had already rushed out of the tent.
"Follow me!"
With the sound of the elven elder leaving, more than a dozen elven warriors rose into the air, and agile figures followed behind the elven elder's flowing body, sweeping towards the direction where the city area was located.
And at this moment, among the crowd watching the battle, in addition to the elf who quietly walked aisle, there was also a person who was dumbfounded.
This person is none other than Thorge!
When the young man was stunned in the air, and then shot up like an arrow into the sky, Thorge's mind buzzed and went blank.
Thorge didn't recognize the name of this footwork. However, following Roy to the fjord, he barely left Roy's side, but he saw Roy perform the same footwork more than once. For this reason, he and several other long knights also discussed in private several times, speculating about the origin of this footwork.
But he never expected that he would see exactly the same footwork on another person's body.
It can even be said that when the young mercenary took to the air, both his figure and his movements were exactly the same as Roy's!
"Up!" Thorge's eyes turned red as an almost crazy thought flashed through his mind.
He roared and jerked off the hood of his cloak. With a kick in the horse's belly, the whole person was shot out like an arrow.
At the same time, the ten captains and knights of the Muni City Guard in the crowd also showed their hidden figures.
"Muni City Guards, Front, Charge!" all the knights roared in unison, and they all activated the battle rings, and their horses followed closely behind Soge, and launched a charge against the Black Devil Serpent.
"It's the Mooney City Guard!" the crowd erupted in exclamation, commotion, and avoidance.
"Look, it's Thorge!"
"It's the chief knight of the guard!
Everyone talked about it and was excited. In particular, the residents of Muni City cheered loudly and cheered for the long knights of the guard.
The black demon snake was openly murdering people in the city of Muni, and it was simply lawless. Although as soon as the incident broke out, someone ran to notify the nearby police sergeant, but it was obviously useless for an ordinary police sergeant to deal with a strong person like the Black Demon Snake. And by the time the Mooney City Guards arrive, I'm afraid the battle is over.
But what everyone didn't expect was that Soge and the entire team of long knights were hidden in the crowd.
At this moment, they showed their identities and charged on horseback, although they were only eleven horses, but on this narrow path, they were like rainbows.
I only heard the horses' hooves shake the earth, and the war horses turned into behemoths, galloping past people's eyes. The howling wind ruffled their hair and the corners of their clothes.
In the blink of an eye, ten long knights had already rushed to a distance of less than thirty meters from the Black Demon Snake under the leadership of Soge.
"Black Devil Snake, what crime should you be guilty of committing murder on the street!" Soge shouted loudly, and without waiting for the Black Devil Snake to answer, he immediately took off the throwing gun next to the saddle, "Kill!"
The sound of horses' hooves beating against the solid stone floor was like a drum.
With Soge's order, eleven throwing spears came out of the knights' hands at the same time, forming a torrent and roaring towards the black snake in the heights.
However, at the same time as the knights made a move, more than a dozen figures suddenly appeared from the roofs of the houses next to the street. The leader of a big man with a centipede-like hideous and terrifying scar on his face snorted coldly, and with a big hand, eight battle rings roared out, turning into a giant hand, and grabbed the flying throwing gun...... Let's make up for yesterday's first. Today's is still writing, and the update time is uncertain...... (To be continued......)
