Chapter Seventy-Four: A Brief Encounter

With a somewhat manic aura, Hiko pounced directly on the two targets in his sight. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoOne of these two targets has a bow and crossbow in his hand and two short swords stuck in his waist. The other is holding two weapons, one long and one short, and at the same time carrying a small round shield behind him.

In terms of equipment, these are two standard adventurer equipment. In terms of strength, how can you know what someone's strength is without a fight? With this in mind, Yan directly raised his sword and stabbed straight at the guy holding the bow and crossbow, and the speed immediately surprised this adventurer.

However, unlike the few indiscriminate goods just now, these two adventurers have experienced a lot of battles and do have some ability. So even when they saw Hiko's astonishing speed, they didn't lose their proportions. The guy with the twin swords in his hand immediately rushed towards his teammate's position. And the one holding the bow and crossbow directly threw the bow and crossbow in his hand, and the whole person was in a ball and flipped to the side.

This immediately created a situation in which the Twin Sword Adventurers faced each other head-on. For Hiko, though, it doesn't make a difference. All he feared was the bow and crossbow, and he could do it without any opponent. So at that moment, he turned his sword, stepped forward sideways, and the long sword went down and up fiercely towards the opponent in front of him.

Although Hiko was less than fourteen years old at this time, he was already one meter seven tall and about the same size as an ordinary human adult. This allows him to face this opponent without being at a disadvantage because of his size. At the same time, this sword also very skillfully stabbed the enemy's throat along the enemy's chest.

This distance is very short, so naturally, the time left for adventurers to react is only a moment. However, years of life and death experience allowed this adventurer to quickly seize this moment. He leaned back sharply, then crossed his swords and pushed straight upwards along his abdomen.

In his reaction, the three weapons staggered fiercely. And as soon as he felt the power transmitted from the long and short sword in his hand. The adventurer gritted his teeth and twisted the hilt of his sword to the side.

His intention is obvious, that is, he wants to use his two weapons to control Hiko's weapons, and then create an opportunity for his companions to attack.

This is the typical risk-taker's practice. They pursue teamwork. Therefore, if you can get two people, you will never go it alone. Chivalry or something, for them it's just a fool's thing to do. Sure, this behavior may sound like a bit of a trick, but you can't deny that it's very effective.

There really isn't much that the average person can do when they encounter this situation. Unless you give up your weapons, you can only rely on the armor on your body to resist the enemy's attacks. This is for the average person, though. For the Nords, even those who are only half of their bloodline, this plan has a fatal flaw, that is, the difference in strength.

The Nords are a race of innate divine powers, and compared to humans, they are at least two or three orders behind. So to lock up a Nord weapon in this way is simply wishful thinking.

With a direct force on his wrist, he twisted the long sword in his hand directly. The tremendous force instantly broke free from the swords and caused the sword to stab at the enemy's throat with lightning bolts.

This is a sword of lightning, and according to Hiko's thoughts, there is almost a ninety percent chance of taking down the enemy in front of him. However, this adventurer is not a vegetarian either. Although it was too late to react to a sword in consciousness, the body had already subconsciously moved on its own.

He jerked his head sideways, avoiding the fatal part. The sword only tore the flesh off his face and cut off half of his ear.

And just when Hiko was about to take advantage of the momentum to pursue and give him a break. Behind him, there was a sudden sound of wind.

The guy who had just held the crossbow had already figured out his short sword and pounced on him from behind. This made Hiko have to make a choice, which was to eat the attack behind him and finish off the guy in front of him first. Or retreat for the time being, and meet the enemy again in full swing.

A normal person will definitely choose the latter option. Because no one is sure what will happen to the attack behind them. If you are killed directly by the enemy, then there is really nothing. But Hikoko didn't have this idea, and he chose the former.

So at that moment, he turned his body violently, allowing the short sword behind him to stab at his back and waist and kidneys through his back muscles. At the same time, he also used the power of his body to twist his body, so that the long sword in his hand directly swung in a perfect arc.

The guy who had already escaped twice was obviously not going to have a third good luck, and this time, the blade of the longsword sliced straight into his neck, cutting off his entire head.

Seeing the death of his companion, the sneak attacker behind him immediately stopped his attack, faced Hiko, and retreated backwards without saying a word.

He knew very well that having lost his teammates, he was definitely no match for Hiko. In fact, the fact that one of them was killed so quickly when the two of them combined almost showed that they were not opponents on the same level. And at this time, leaving the battlefield is his best choice.

However, it is not easy to get out of the battlefield in such a situation. The distance between them is limited, and at this limited distance, with the speed that Hiko has just shown, as long as he exposes his back, then the next moment he will usher in the fate of piercing his heart. So he very cleverly chose to half-bow his body and quickly retreat while defending against Hiko head-on.

As long as he can get out of a safe distance, he can escape with his agility. But alas, Hiko didn't give him this chance.

As soon as he retreated, Hiko rushed straight up. The long sword in his hand was heavier and longer than the enemy's short sword, and he directly slashed a silver arc of light in the most violent way. This arc of light almost enveloped the adventurer's upper body, and it can be said that if he didn't make an effective defense, this sword could take him directly to his old buddy.

But how could the adventurer face Hiko's attack without making any defenses? Almost immediately, the adventurer set up his short sword and blocked the arc from spreading. And when he did this, immediately, a heavy impact came.

As a crossbowman, although he has also received some melee training, it is basically impossible to compete with a Nord. So immediately, his somewhat thin body was completely repulsed. He staggered, unable to stabilize his center of gravity at all. And the soreness of the arm muscles also made him lose the possibility of continuing to hold the weapon for the first time.

The two daggers quickly fell to the ground. And for the opponent who has lost his combat effectiveness, Yan has no sympathy this time.

Progress stepped forward and kicked the adventurer, whose center of gravity was already very unstable, and kicked him directly to the ground. Immediately after, Hiko held the long sword in his hand high and pierced through his chest fiercely.

The process was so swift that the poor opponent didn't even have a chance to beg for mercy. The longsword in Hiko's hand belongs to the one-handed sword in the eyes of the Nords, but it is a typical broadsword in the eyes of other races. The thick blade and the open blade were ten centimeters long, and when it pierced through the adventurer's chest, the blade had already cut off half of his lungs. This caused a large amount of blood to pour in, causing it to die directly in pain and suffocation.

And it wasn't until I watched this poor creature gradually collapse his body in the struggle, and completely lost his breath. Yan Cai let out a long breath and slowly let go of the hilt of the sword in his hand.

It was his first time killing someone, and it didn't feel anything strange. After all, he had already seen a lot of death, so although it was a very commemorative first time, it hardly caused any fluctuations in his heart. On the contrary, compared to the dead man on the ground, he cared more about the dome that he had rushed out before.

After calming his breath, Hiko drew his sword and groped his way in the direction that Dome had just rushed out. And as soon as he took a step, he heard the voice of the firmament's disdain.

"Isn't it too slow to finish off your opponent now?"

"You know you're dealing with just one person, and I'm dealing with two. ā€

Rolling his eyes, Hiko retorted as usual. Hearing him say this, the dome became even more disdainful.

"Is there a difference between one and two? Don't make excuses for your incompetence, that will only make you more incompetent. ā€

"Okay, okay. You're always the one who makes sense. Sighing to end this meaningless dispute, Yan Gang wanted to say something, but suddenly felt a strange tingling sensation behind him.

This made him immediately reach out and touch his cut waist, the wound was not painful, but there was a numb feeling. And the blood on his hand was also tinged with a strange color, with a faint fishy smell. This made Hiko immediately realize the cunning of the enemy, and they actually quenched poison in their weapons.

But fortunately, there is the Holy Light!

The holy light poured into his body like a stream of water, and the wound behind him immediately felt a different kind of burning sensation. Soon, the cut wound healed, and the toxins in it were completely wiped out by the light. This situation made Dome extremely envious, even a little jealous.

"It's a great ability. It's really unfair that the Mother of Life gave you the talent to create this. ā€

For this manifestation of jealousy, Yan smiled slightly and revealed it. Then he looked at the two bodies on the ground and couldn't help frowning.

"Bursts of crossbows, and poison-hardening weapons. It's not like the average adventurer has it. ā€

"The person I fought just now used the secret swordsmanship of the army of the Kingdom of Velon, the Vulture Sword Technique. If you look at it this way, they should be the elite soldiers of the kingdom. ā€

"The kingdom's vulture scouts, what are they doing here?" said Hiko, putting away his weapon. Leaving here in great stride. "Let's go talk to Mr. Lu. Let's see what these guys are up to!"
