Chapter 117: Ambush
Ernest followed the figure of the strange man and soon went out of the range of N City, the sky was still overcast, the heavy rain was gradually thinning, and it looked like it would soon stop. The direction of the strange man is shown on the navigation as a small forest, which is a large area between cities A and N, with three wide highways running through it, and tall protective barriers on both sides of the road to ensure that no animals enter the road and that no cars drive down the road. Looking into the distance, three roads stretch to City A in the distance, but here, you can't see the outline of City A at all.
After chasing for so long, Ernest was not ready to chase any further, after all, he was only coming to chase alone, and the Templar didn't know what was going on.
Perhaps aware of Ernest's intentions or some other reason, the strange man covered in white cloth suddenly stopped, and plunged headlong into the forest below, laughing mockingly before disappearing.
Ernest, who originally wanted to go back, immediately chased after him, not because he couldn't stand the provocation of the stranger, but because he was fearless at all, even if he was ambushed, he was confident enough to retreat.
Descent into the forest, the air is humid and the ground is slightly muddy. Ernes's heavy paladin power armor will sink into a large piece when stepped on the ground, and even slip under his feet! Ernest's white background gold paladin armor is very obvious in the forest, especially the huge golden cross on the chest of the paladin armor is even more dazzling.
The light in the forest was a little dim, and Ernest turned on the exterior lighting of the Holy Knight Armor, he was not used to using night vision equipment. Because that's very limiting in view.
After observing for a while, Ernest realized that he might have been tricked, and that the weirdo had landed here. But there were no footprints, perhaps they fled quickly. Ernest exhaled deeply, calmed down, activated the thrusters on the paladin's armor, and prepared to leave.
Just as Ernest was about to leave, the paladin suffered a violent blow to the back! Ernest lost his center of gravity and was nearly knocked to the ground! I wanted to see what it was, but at this moment, there was a huge impact behind me. The paladin's armor was knocked to the ground with a thud. Fortunately, the cloak shield behind the paladin armor is strong enough, otherwise the strength of the paladin armor may damage the paladin armor!
Ernest, who had been attacked twice, cautiously looked around, and there was nothing at all, except for trees and trees around. It can't be a tree, right? He looked closely. The trees are all about the same. I don't see anything out of the ordinary. But in the next second, Ernest saw a tree spinning, and a relatively thick branch swept towards him! Ernest didn't think much about it, picked up his rifle and smashed it, and with a click, the branch was immediately broken.
"Who is here?!" Ernest said loudly, knowing that this should be the trap of the strange man, but before he saw anyone. Ernest didn't want to jump to conclusions.
"Isn't it possible that you've come to me, why do you have such a poor memory, or maybe your eyes are bad?" came the strange voice of the strange man from all directions. Sure enough, he did it.
"Well, it's better than you cowering monster, are you trying to contain me with these trees?" Ernest also began to verbally pay tribute to the weirdo.
"Tsk, it's a miracle that you haven't been stupid after spending more than ten years in that sanctuary. The strange man's voice continued to come from all directions, as if waiting for him.
"You're waiting for an accomplice. Ernest said, "I can wait until your accomplices arrive, so that we can pack up together." ”
"Are you so arrogant, are the people in the church so unashamed?" the strange man's voice fluctuated slightly.
"It's not up to you to be arrogant, it's up to me to defeat you in a few seconds!" Ernest stood proudly in place like a god of war, because he was not afraid of sneak attacks.
After waiting for a while, the strange man was silent, Ernest didn't know what the other party was preparing, in this case, it was better not to stay where he was. Ernest leaped forward, and with the power of the jet, he jumped smoothly onto a large tree. As far as the eye can see, the surroundings are dark green, and they look particularly strong under the moisture of the rain. Ernest didn't want to wait any longer, and directly turned on the scanning device on the paladin's armor, and soon a sensing signal was transmitted back to the virtual screen on the helmet.
The signal showed that two hundred meters in front of Ernest, three signal sources were converging. Ernest didn't even think about knowing it was the weirdo and his accomplices. Ernest took a deep breath and threw the rifle in his hand sharply, aiming it at the strange man and his accomplices two hundred meters away.
Soon, the virtual display on Ernest's helmet showed that two sources were flying away and one source was left in place. Ernest snorted coldly, such an opponent is simply too weak, and that weirdo can't be killed for the time being. Thinking of this, Ernest exerted force under his feet, and under the propulsion of the jet, he reached the location of the only signal source in ten seconds.
But the sight in front of him instantly made Ernest fall into an ice cave, and the blood in his body almost coagulated at this moment. Ernest saw that his rifle pierced a delicate fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl over the head! Due to the great strength, after the spear pierced the girl's head, it actually squeezed her eyeballs out of her eye sockets, and two huge blood holes were strangely towards Ernest, as if staring at his murderer! Ernest even saw the girl's resentful and incomprehensible eyes, why did he kill himself?!
The huge riding spear pinned the girl firmly to the ground, and her distorted face still had an expression of extreme consternation, and blood flowed all over the ground, a tragic announcement of the loss of a fresh life. The tragic departure of such a young girl in the flower season would be painful for anyone, especially Ernest, who, as a murderer, looked powerlessly at the horrific corpse of the girl, and he did not even have the courage to pull out the riding spear that ran through the girl's body, and perhaps he would never use it again.
Ernest's heart was extremely disturbed, he had no idea that a little girl would come here on such a rainy day! He had just brutally killed an innocent life! Ernest was instantly enveloped in self-blame. Ernest felt so guilty for the horrific appearance of the girl's tragic death that he stood motionless, unaware ......of the shadow behind him.
