Chapter 20: The Bewishing Assassin
When he called out his name, Delacro nodded in satisfaction, raised his sword in the air, and flew towards it with a hidden arrow, shooting a pirate beside Nabal, while the bounty hunter hidden in the village killed him under the cover of darkness. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the face of this ambush, Nabar threw the flying axe in his hand towards Delacro in a fit of rage, but Delacro easily dodged it, and Nabal picked up the axe and slammed the ground, shaking out a golden shockwave, this time Delacro couldn't easily dodge, so he used a midnight slash shower to catch it from the front, and countless swords condensed with energy finally canceled out the powerful shockwave.
In the light of Nabar's shockwave, the pirates saw the enemy in the darkness clearly, and found that the enemy was far inferior to their own, so they rushed up to the bounty hunters and began a bloody melee.
As the soldiers were busy fighting, the two leaders, Nabal and Delacro, could not sit idle, and the two walked back and forth on the beach, but never took their eyes off each other, and the two began to confront each other amid the shouts of pirates and hunters......
"I thought the leader of the Goshawk Regiment would be a good opponent, but the move just now was just the effect of that strange axe! Delacro's eyes suddenly ignited with fire, a sword pierced the ground and the giant sword in the midnight slash suddenly rose, and a giant gas condensation sword condensed by qi power flew out from under Nabar's feet, but unfortunately Delacro miscalculated, the tall and stout Nabar also had a sharp skill, and suddenly jumped back to avoid the rising sword shadow, and threw the flying axe in his hand far away at Delacro. He dodged the axe with the same ease, leaped sideways and skimmed over Nabal's head, drawing a beautiful arc under the moon, and taking advantage of the momentum, the moon wheel in the midnight slash slashed at the back of Nabal's head.
In the face of this inevitable sword, Nabar raised the handle of the axe at a very wonderful angle, and used this to shake off Delacro's sword, and then swung the axe and turned around and made a sharp move up, when the axe blade touched the long sword in Delacro's hand, due to the excessive attack power, Delacro's sword actually broke directly, and the completely unexpected attack power put Delacro at a disadvantage, but fortunately, White shot in time and shot an arrow far away from the axe in Nabar's hand to distract him, taking this golden opportunity, he kicked Nabar away, and jumped into the air to throw a flying knife to counterattack。
As Nabal dodged the throwing knife, Delacro unleashed another aerial attack, sending Nabal's horned helmet flying with an upward kick, and then sending him to the ground with a high kick, and he bounced back into the air with the force of the kick he had just hit......
Nabal, who had been kicked by Delacro's flying kicks, didn't have much trouble getting back to his feet, but the axe in his hand had already flown far away, and the painful expression under his black hair was revealed, and he covered his injured mouth and coughed out two teeth from it.
"Ahh
At this time, Delacro was descending from mid-air, ready to repeat the old trick to decide the winner with flying kicks, but unfortunately was seen through, Nabar directly reached out and grabbed Delaquero's right foot, and dragged him from the air with all his strength, and slammed into the sand, the pain of the wild fall made Delacro spurt out a mouthful of blood, and before the pain passed, Nabar picked up from the ground and threw him out with all his strength and fell on the sand.
"This ...... Your life is so hard...... He was still able to stand up...... "After fighting with all his strength for a long time, Nabal was also a little tired, and he was particularly surprised when he noticed that Delacro, who had been knocked down by himself with all his strength, stood up again.
"Huhu...... You should be glad I don't have a sword in my hand, otherwise with your two blows, I wouldn't have the qualifications to fight with you......" On the other hand, Delacro was stained with the blood he vomited when he was injured on the chest of his lace dress, and his cloak was also worn out a little when he rolled on the ground, and after wiping the blood from his mouth, Delacro staggered towards Nabar from a distance.
At this point, the two seemed to still have the will to fight, staring into each other's eyes and rushing at each other with all their might, while delivering the final blow. In the collision, Nabar punched Delacro in the abdomen, and Delacro kicked Nabar in the face, and when the aftermath of the attack subsided, the two fell together......
At this time, the victory or defeat of the melee was already obvious, not only in terms of equipment, but also in terms of numbers, far inferior to this group of pirates, after the defeat of the melee, the bounty hunters left a large number of corpses and fled. The pirates, cheering for victory, found their leader on the ground, and immediately came to Nabal's side to help him up, while Polislavi came to Delacro's side to rescue him, and the two sides were once again in a state of confrontation.
"Haha... Do you know how powerful Lao Tzu is...... You stinky boy... Let's go home and practice......"
"It's pure luck that you've been able to fight me to this point...... Now it seems that you are more embarrassed......"
The two sarcastically said to each other, but in this duel, Nabal cut off Delacro's sword, and he was kicked off his helmet and lost two teeth, which was indeed Nabal's more miserable.
He thought that Nabal would let his men take such a bad breath on his behalf, but he said to the pirates, "Let's go...... Let this kid go this time, and get it back later......"
The pirates were incredible, but Nabal's eyes were so determined that they could not discuss, and several pirates picked up Nabar's axe and helmet, and helped him to the dinghy and rowed towards the pirate ship in the distance......
"Are you alright, sir?" and it looks like you're hurting...... "As soon as the pirates were gone, White helped Delacro to sit down on the sand and asked about his injuries.
Delacro shook his head, indicating that his injuries were not in the way, got up and walked to the bodies of the bounty hunters not far away, and sighed: "This time it was my mistake, I only cared about my own battle, completely ignored these men, I can only bury them first......"
As a last resort, while Delacro was resting to regain his strength, Polislawi carried the corpses of the pirates and bounty hunters who had died in the scuffle to the center of the village, found some unburned firewood from the huts, prayed for the dead, burned them, and left the fishing village with Delacro in the light of the fire......
At the same time, a grand banquet was being held in the town hall of Chanda, and the upper class residents and important people of Chanda were invited to the Earl's palace for a banquet, and Arassis hoped to use this banquet to expose the hidden dangers of the new rise of the Calradia continent, and as for the troubles of the Calradia continent, first rewind the time to the afternoon of the same day......
"In 806, the Dark Knights marched out of the continent and invaded Calradia across the Snow Mountains through the Virginia homeland...... No, it's still some time to come. ”
In the cluttered study, Aracis was flipping through the history of the continent of Calradia, while Natsuhiko and Shibei were busy helping Aracis remove some valuable documents or related records from the shelves.
After a while, he laughed out loud and said excitedly: "I finally found it, the historical record of the 810th year of the continental calendar, that year was the period of the fall of the North Continent and the Snow Field, and the Dark Knights carried out blood and fire baptism in various parts of the North Continent in order to make the subjects of the Karad Empire submit, mostly burning at the stake and fire sacrifices, which not only represented the worship of the god Medius, but also served as a test that must be completed before the Drua believers officially entered the religion. ”
At this point, he wrote down all the materials in the book, and then threw it to the Ten Guards, who put it back on the shelf and asked, "Why did you go out of your way to find out when this ritual was dated?
"This is a history that cannot be deviated from, in order to ensure that some heretic is not deceived in the name of the church of Medius and Drua. ”
"Judging from the words and deeds of those pilgrims in the valley, this is not a joke, and those three knights are simply here to kill people, if you follow this clue, you will definitely be able to find out the hidden conspiracy!" Hearing Arassis's doubts, Xia Yan expressed his understanding and gave his opinion.
Hearing this, Alassis nodded, and explained: "Tonight's banquet is the best time to announce this plan, and while punishing these dark believers, we also have to find out their backstage, which requires more mercenaries to gather in Zenda, and we urgently need manpower." ”
After discussing the topic of dark believers, Arassis took out two letters from his desk, with the four big characters "The Law of Mercenaries" written on the cover, and the large seal of the Chanda Mercenary Association was left on the side. He handed them over to Xia Yan and Shibei respectively, and instructed: "This is the convening order of the Chanda Mercenary Association, and any mercenary who has stopped in Chanda can join the Mercenary Association again to pursue wealth together." This is the last thing I want you to do, and after tonight, you will set off to various towns or cities in the northern continent and the central continent to find mercenaries, and persuade them to sign an agreement on the mercenary letter, and gather as many mercenary groups as possible to Zenda for later use!"
Back in the foyer of the Earl's Palace, which had been decorated as a place for a banquet, at which Arassis announced to the people of Zenda the reappearance of the Dark Followers of Drua in Calradia, and the guests listened and discussed their opinions......
"These abominable cultists, my hammer will not let them go!!I will knock them on the head myself if I have the chance!" Robin slammed the table on the table as he slammed his anger and drank his suffocating wine. At this time, the grocer Claris was not happy, and he propped up his half-drunk body and came behind Fat Robin, and began to ramble loudly.
"Robin...... Hiccup! You're not a big boss, don't you know that a hammer isn't ...... Hiccup! the most ...... The best weapon? I'm still ...... after the last overhaul Hiccup! There's a cart of stone bricks left to use as weapons...... Hiccup, you beat them to cry dad and call mother......"
With a pop, Clarvis rolled his eyes down, and Alex, who provided armor for the Chanda Mercenary Association, looked at the grocery store owner on the ground and smiled, "He's done playing." Cup-hungry people are not enough to worry about, I think I was also a first-class mercenary back then, a man's destination should be a battlefield of honor, not a hotbed for girls, right?"
"You're also a fallacy...... However, my family almost died at the hands of those guys, and if there was a war, I would be happy to do my part!" Although Suke did not agree with Alex's theory, his hatred for the Dark Cultists drove him and filled him with the desire to fight.
The four people in front of him made Harrick cry and laugh a little, and he sighed in disappointment, "I don't think I said I was going to fight the Dark Order, did I? Why are you four so exaggerated......
Halfway through the feast, most of the attendees were already drunk, completely unaware that an uninvited guest was watching the foyer from the top of the castle......
"I didn't expect the news to have such a big impact, so let's go to dinner too. At this time, Alassis and the others, who were standing outside the door of the office room, were discussing something.
Shibei felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and an inexplicable sense of tension in his heart made him lose his appetite, so he responded, "No need. I always think something is going to happen tonight, so let's break up......"
"The Earl has such an easy time to hold a banquet, how can it just be dispersed......" Harrick heard the sound and walked up.
Arassis gave him a blank look, not realizing that someone was coming down from the sky to attack him......
"Boom!!"
With a loud bang on the tabletop, a mysterious visitor appears on the long table in the foyer, a phenomenon that shocks everyone present. The mysterious man wore a red coat with an iron mask covering the lower half of his face, and under the long sleeves were not human hands, but sharp claws that shone with a purple halo......
"There are assassins!!, everyone, take cover!!" Ten Guard's fears became a reality, and his first reaction was that someone was trying to assassinate Aracis. There was already chaos downstairs, and all the residents began to rush towards the gate, as if they were fleeing from death, and in order to cover the escape of the townspeople who had no ability to resist, Jubei and Natsuhiko jumped over the fence and jumped into the hall.
"Poison Bee!" "Maitreya Flow!!Moon Shadow!" The two of them attacked this opponent at the same time, but the mysterious figure ignored these two killer moves, and effortlessly took Maitreya's sword qi with his left wrist, and knocked down all the flying needles with his right palm.
"Very good! your moves are very good, you finally have someone worth killing......"
Just a mediocre provocation, they felt enough suffocating pressure from their opponents, and in a tense situation, Xia Yan reminded the ten guards beside him: "It seems that we are going to have a hard battle, there is no need to save strength, he is a more terrifying person than a mirror......
The two sides didn't say much, and only rushed to the opponent to start a battle in a flash......
