Chapter 230: A Common Enemy
Fighting, is what Barrett is most familiar with.
The 'Tyrannical Touch' and the 'Resonance Tomahawk' appeared in his hands, and the brute moved his shoulders and neck to throw the Resonant Tomahawk out of his right hand.
Like lightning, the tomahawk slashed through the joints of a black ant-man's chest and abdomen, severing it at the waist. The remaining Ant-Men returned the salute with a rain of poisonous spears at Barrit. Then the ants who threw out their weapons pulled out freshly baked chitin weapons with slime hanging from the stinger-laden abdomen behind them.
Barrett rolled forward a few times in time, looking a little embarrassed, but accurately dodging this wave of dense long-range strikes.
Don't underestimate the indecent action of 'rolling', in the hands of elite adventurers, it can play a role against the sky, and can even be equated with invincibility.
Barritt, who had dodged the rain of poisonous spears, quickly got up, and the enemy had already rushed in front of him. These black ant-men work together quite well, and they are not afraid to fight to the death, which Barrett discovered when he first fought them.
Ant people don't need to communicate verbally, and they can coordinate well with each other. They cover each other's attacks and defenses, and every move is extremely efficient. What's more, these Ant-Men are not afraid of being touched by sharp blades, they don't let out painful howls, and their faces are always as cold and indifferent as if they were wearing masks, as if they were born purely for battle.
Of course, it's also possible that Barrett can't read their insect-like expressions.
The 'Tyrannical Touch' slashed horizontally, blocking several chitin poisonous spears that came at him, and even directly severing two of them. This scimitar-shaped weapon is much sharper than the Iron Bride, and Barrett sometimes struggles to get used to it.
Immediately after his right hand was weakly grasped, the bronze ring chirped slightly, and the resonant tomahawk that landed on the distant ground shook twice, and flew back again with a roar of breaking the sky, and under the control of the conscious displacement of Barrit's left hand, he cut off the head of a black ant-man before returning to his hand.
The brute caught the tomahawk and slashed at the nearest enemy directly on the opposite side. But the other party stabbed the poisonous spear straight at him, as if he was going to die with him.
In the next moment, Barrett's battle axe was parried by the other two Ant-Man with chitinous weapons in time, and the opponent's poisonous spear was also smashed away by the barbarian with a sharp sword, and the two sides temporarily tied in this round.
Several more chitin spears stabbed at him, and the opponent's dense and alternating poison spear thrust method was indeed a bit tricky, and Barrett moved deftly to the side and back, opening up a little distance from the opponent. Half of Ant-Man followed in his footsteps, while the rest headed towards Weimar and the others.
A few young people didn't need him to worry, and after a few battles, Barrett already had a pretty good idea of what they were capable of. The combat skills of these guys are indeed quite good, and the ability to cooperate with each other is also quite good, and if you deal with a few Ant-Men, there will be no problems for a while.
However, Barrett still admonished, "Be careful, don't get scratched by their poisonous spears, I'll help you when I'm done with these guys." ”
"Don't worry, you beat yours, we can handle these Ant-Men!" William said confidently, completely forgetting the tragic situation after his previous poisoning.
The first of the young men to strike was naturally Blake, a taciturn bow bearer. With the soft sound of a bowstring, a sharp arrow suddenly appeared in the chewing mouthparts of a black Ant-Man. The tail of the arrow is equipped with two goose feathers dyed black, which match the color of Ant-Man's carapace
The arrows of the black feathers came out of his head, and the ant-man fell unexpectedly. The rest of Ant-Man returned the favor with a wave of poisonous spears to Weimar and the others, and then prepared to fight with their venomous claws and bites.
It seems that enemy chitin weapons cannot spawn repeatedly for a short period of time, which is good news.
Two of the four poisonous spears were taken by Weimar with a shield, and the other two were dodged by Blake, who was lying on the ground.
Well, I should work harder, Barrett thought.
The 'Tyrannical Touch' and the 'Resonant Tomahawk' flew like a storm in his hands, and although the half-numbered Ant-Man was still perfect in terms of coordination, it could no longer effectively stop the barbarians.
Barrett shattered the carapace of Ant-Man one Ant-Man after another, rolling and severing their arthropod-like claws, and it took him a short time to knock all the Ant-Men in front of him to the ground.
The battle in Weimar was also going well, with the combination of the Shield-Bearer, the Bow-Bearer, and the Wandering Swordsman fighting quite well, and their opponents were only two Ant-Men who were still resisting, but it was only a matter of time.
Barrett exhaled, flipped his wrist, and the 'Tyrannical Touch' changed from a positive grip to a reverse grip. He walked over to an Ant-Man who had been split in two, but was still squirming on the ground, and stabbed it with a sword.
Then he straightened up and looked back at the main battlefield in the cave.
The Ant-Man Clan, which was already small in number, inexplicably separated about ten to deal with them, and the battle between them and the cavemen immediately became dangerous.
In order to make up for the lack of numbers, the ants of the black carapace began to slowly retreat, compressing the formation and gathering into a clump. The situation on the battlefield is changed from offensive to receiving, no, it is defensive. and use the phalanx to deal with the swarming cavemen.
Once again, the battle scene was briefly deadlocked.
But Barrett wasn't going to make it easy for the Black Ant-Men. He strode towards the guys who were blindly fighting against him, waving his hand at the Caveman Patriarch, who was half a head shorter than him.
"I'm ......" Barrett pointed to himself, "help you ......" he pointed at the cavemen again, "Hit those guys!" and finally pointed the tip of his sword at the Black Ant-Man.
Hopefully, the cave man patriarch is as intellectually intelligent as he is in the group. Barrett didn't want to be caught by the cavemen when he was attacking Ant-Man, and that would be too embarrassing.
When the Caveman Patriarch heard Barrett's voice, he turned his head towards him, whose eyes had deteriorated, but he didn't respond for a while.
Well, it doesn't seem to understand what I mean. Just when Barrett was about to give up his intention to take revenge and lead Weimar and the others to leave directly, the cave man patriarch finally nodded paradoxically, and he didn't know whether he really understood Barrett's words, or subconsciously made some kind of meaningless action.
I'll just let you agree, Barrett thought to herself. If you dare to attack me, I will kill your whole family.
Rushing over and killing the commanding patriarch with two axes, and then he could dual-wield the warriors in these small monster groups, Barrett thought that he would only need one meal to wipe out all these cave people.
Luckily, when he attacked the Black Ant-Men, none of the cavemen came to harass him. They were at a distance from him, each dealing with a common enemy.
When there were less than ten of them left, Ant-Man finally retreated from the corridor behind them and disappeared into the darkness. In Barrett's opinion, they should have left a long time ago, and they don't know what they are holding on to in vain.
At the end of the battle, the cave was full of corpses, and the smell of blood was very strong. The intelligence of the cave people seemed to know that Barrett and the others were helping them, so they did not start the dispute again, but silently cleaned up the corpses and cleaned up the battlefield.
The Caveman Patriarch led some of the cavemen with red bone spurs on their backs to Barret, raised their big heads, and said something of unknown meaning to him.
"I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean. Barrett spread his hand and made a helpless expression, and then remembered that the other party had no eyes, so he retracted his expression and gesture.
"He's thanking you. A voice said suddenly.
Barrett turned her head to see that it was Gary, the goblin, who had woken up. The little green-skinned man walked up to him with the back of his head in his hands and negotiated with the Caveman Patriarch.
