Chapter 42: The Hunt
"Sure enough, I still don't give up! I have been guarding against you for a long time!"
The moment Christopher turned, Barrett twisted and changed his position. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Although victory was already in sight, Barrett, as a seasoned veteran thief, did not let his guard down. After all, the opponent is the leader of the Bright Adjuter, and he is by no means a character that can be taken lightly.
Dodging the attack of the sword qi, Barrett just wanted to entangle Christopher again, when he suddenly felt that the angle of the sword qi seemed to be slightly wrong. Before Barrett could fully figure out what was wrong, he heard a thud, as if something had been cut by the sword qi.
"Oh no! It's a fire oil bomb!" Barrett realized Christopher's calculations. From the moment he showed up to kill Martin, Barrett had not fought too far from the trebuchet position, and it was only a few dozen paces away from the stacked fire oil bombs.
Although Christopher's sword aura just now was clearly attacking Barrett, the actual target was a fire oil bomb dozens of steps behind him. These alchemical items are unnoticeable, but once detonated, they are powerful.
Although he figured everything out in an instant, Barrett had no way to stop it. After the piled up fire oil bombs were cut through by the sword qi, they exploded directly, and then detonated the other fire oil bombs. In an instant, a powerful explosion comparable to the Six Rings spell swept through the surrounding space, turning hundreds of people in a radius into a sea of fire.
Although Barrett was dozens of steps away from the center of the explosion, and had already subconsciously condensed his fighting qi to defend, he was still shocked out by the explosion of the air wave, and his back seemed to be hit by a giant hammer, his five organs were damaged, and his fighting energy was consumed in an instant. The cloak on his body was even more ignited by the flames, and it burned violently.
In contrast, although Christopher also suffered a lot of impact, because the distance was farther, and he had been prepared for a good defense, relying on stronger physical attributes and stronger fighting spirit, he resisted the impact of the explosion and did not fall. Instead, he raised his sword and pounced on Barrett, who fell to the ground. I want to take advantage of this opportunity to solve this difficult old thief in one fell swoop.
But before Christopher could get closer, an arrow whizzed into the back of his heart. Hearing the sound of the wind on the sharp arrow, although there were stone skin techniques and protective arrows on his body, Christopher did not dare to ignore this 'aimed shot' shot by Daddy York, so he could only condense the little remaining fighting spirit and swing his sword to split the arrow.
After delaying this time, when Christopher wanted to make another move, Barrett had already relied on strong willpower to forcibly suppress the injury and regain his mobility. After removing the cloak that had been ignited, prepare for defense.
At the same time, old David, who had leapt from the horse startled by the explosion, rushed towards Barrett, and the spear in his hand was thrown at Christopher.
Reluctantly brushing aside the powerful spear, looking at Old David, who was less than two hundred meters away from him, Christopher snorted coldly and threw a sword aura at Barrett, but he ran in the direction where Daddy York was.
If he reluctantly strikes, he may still have a chance to kill Barrett, but Christopher himself will definitely be entangled by Davy Sr. After experiencing a big battle with Barrett and just resisting the aftermath of the explosion of the fire oil bomb, Christopher's own fighting spirit was also exhausted. If you get entangled, it's definitely a dead end. So after a moment of hesitation, Christopher still chose to leave the useful person to serve God, and temporarily let Barrett go as the mission goal.
Seeing Christopher flee, old David hesitated for a moment. Christopher's last sword aura once again hit Barrett, who was already exhausted. If he chooses to pursue, Barrett is likely to have an accident. And if you choose to save Barrett, you will definitely miss the best opportunity to pursue Christopher, which is equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain.
"Uncle Davy, you go save Uncle Barrett first, and I'll go after Christopher. Just when Old David was a little hesitant, Luo Sheng's voice came from behind, and at the same time, a high-grade healing potion was thrown over. This is a high-end product that Luo Sheng bought from the old Kidd store, which not only has a better healing effect than the spell for treating serious injuries, but also can replenish people's vitality, which is more suitable for injured people like Barrett who consume too much vitality.
"Be careful yourself, don't be reckless, I'll take someone over as soon as possible. Hearing Rason's arrangement, old David gave an order and ran directly to Barrett.
If it was before today, Old David was only grateful to Luo Sheng, after experiencing the battle with the Light Judge Blocker, Old David's attitude towards Luo Sheng was respect and recognition.
In that battle, although the strength of the old David's side was superior, if it was not for Luo Sheng's enemy aircraft first, making plans, and flexibly supporting various battlefields with spells, the casualties of the veteran team would probably increase by one-third, and the battle would have dragged on for a longer time, and it would not have been possible to reach the battlefield so quickly. With these exploits and performances alone, all the veterans who participated in the war recognized Luo Sheng's ability and resourcefulness. So for Luo Sheng's arrangement, old David directly chose to trust.
After throwing the potion to old David, Luo Sheng looked at Christopher, who was about to run into the darkness, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. While running, he tore open a few scrolls, and after blessing himself, his body pounced forward, and he had already turned into a cheetah form known for its speed, and chased after it like the wind.
The direction of Christopher's escape is the woods where York's father is hiding, and with Rosen's understanding of Christopher, the other party must get rid of the people who have the ability to track him before he really escapes.
Barrett was so badly wounded that he could no longer join the pursuit, even if he was treated with spells. The biggest threat to Christopher now is Daddy York, a ninth-level ranger. So Christopher chose to flee in this direction, apparently wanting to get rid of Daddy York first, and then calmly escape.
"Christopher must die today!" roared in his heart, and Rasheng increased his speed to the limit. In addition to worrying about his father's safety, Luo Sheng knew very well in his heart that Christopher would never be allowed to go back alive today.
As the leader of the Judge of Light in Blackstone, Christopher has a large number of intelligence channels. Even if the Light Judge of Blackstone County suffered a huge setback this time, as long as Christopher was alive, these intelligence channels would be able to function normally. And the role that Luo Sheng played in this battle will be quickly grasped by the Holy See of Light. Even Luo Sheng doubted that now Christopher already knew his role and made up his mind to get rid of himself.
Because most of the lineage strength has been lost, Christopher may not make a big move in the short term, but the Bright Judge is a huge organization across the continent and will quickly replenish the consumption of Blackstone County. When the Judge of Light comes to his senses, Christopher will inevitably take the most brutal revenge.
At that time, the Cook family had the big tree of Baron Cook to support, and they did not dare to act rashly. But for the Rason family, who are not descendants of Cook Castle, Christopher will definitely not be soft in the slightest. In that case, even if they hide in Cook Castle, the lives of the Rasheng family will be greatly threatened.
However, this crisis is not unsolvable. As long as Christopher can be completely left here today, then the intelligence channels of the Bright Judge will be in chaos for a long time, and even if the upper echelons of the Light Judge send a new leader, it will take a long time to sort out the information, and it may not be able to completely restore the true situation of this battle.
In that case, as long as Barrett and others did not intentionally betray him, then Rasen's core role would be covered up, and he would probably be regarded as an ordinary guest of the Cook family, and the Rasheng family would not become the main target of revenge from the Bright Adjudicator.
For Luo Sheng, as long as he can strive for a safety period of half a year to a year, he believes that with his own growth rate, he should already have enough strength to protect the safety of his family.
After incarnating as a cheetah, Rasen's speed has surpassed that of Christopher, who is a silver tier. But because the distance between the two sides was relatively far before, it was only after Christopher ran into the woods for a while that Luo Sheng followed into the woods.
As soon as he entered the woods, relying on the night vision brought by transforming into a cheetah, Rason saw Christopher's figure, and at the same time saw Daddy York.
By this time, Daddy York's Bow of the Wind had broken and was tossed aside. Armed with two scimitars, he struggled to fend off Christopher's attacks. Obviously, Christopher should have locked on to Daddy York's location by some means in advance, and launched an attack directly after entering the woods. Caught off guard, Papa York's bow was severed and dragged into melee combat, where he was not very adept.
Compared to his superb archery, Daddy York's sword skills can only be regarded as average, and cannot be compared with a swordsman like Christopher who specializes in swordsmanship. And the scimitar in Daddy York's hand is just a sophisticated weapon, far from being comparable to the magic sword in Christopher's hand. So even if Christopher is not in good shape, Daddy York's situation is still precarious.
And after discovering that Luo Sheng was chasing him, Christopher gritted his teeth, squeezed out what little fighting spirit he had left, and slashed at Daddy York with all his strength. The magic sword blessed by the fighting spirit directly cut off the scimitar of Daddy York's horizontal frame, and then slashed heavily at Daddy York. Although Daddy York tried to retreat, there was still a huge wound on his chest, and the blood splattered, and the man fell backwards.
"Daddy!" Seeing the scene of Daddy's fall, Luo Sheng's eyes turned red, his body jumped suddenly, and he launched a wild charge skill, instantly spanning a distance of nearly twenty meters, appearing beside Daddy York, protecting Daddy York. And at this moment, Christopher's second sword slashed down and slashed at the back of the cheetah that Luo Sheng had transformed, blood splattered, and the wound was visible to the bone.
