Chapter 71: Escape Matters
The sound of the ground shaking suddenly intensified!
One...... Two....... Three...... Four...... Five...... ,
They emerged from the shadows of the forest, their dress, size, and mounts almost identical to the man who had just appeared.
The chill hit his face, and Svek suddenly fell into an ice cellar.
The lid of the ice cellar was still locked.
One against seven, the odds of victory were slim, and the musket once again became the last fragile straw for him to save his life.
Two of them wielded double-edged axes, two wielded hammers, and the remaining three wielded greatswords, and the sword Svek carried was like a poor little dagger.
Front, back, left and right, escape routes were blocked.
"Who the hell are you, Island Keeper?"
Sweik shouted sharply, even if he was certain to die, he couldn't lose in momentum, and he had to learn from Beechcraft, just like a hedgehog meeting a powerful hunter and erecting burrs all over his body.
They didn't attack.
In the darkness, their eyes are different from ordinary people, like wild beasts, they can emit a faint dim light.
Svecker had never seen such eyes.
A man jumped off the monster and landed silently.
His greatsword hung slowly at his side, the tip of the sword and his body at a forty-five-degree angle, pointing diagonally at the ground, which was the prelude to an attack.
Sveker's finger was on the trigger, and he was looking for the perfect opportunity to shoot.
He took two steps forward, like a ghost, and walked without a sound.
Even the rotten branches and fallen leaves all over the ground did not make any small echoes.
Svek was even more nervous in his heart, he couldn't understand whether the person in front of him was a human or a ghost.
On his left and right, around him, the rest of the people stood patiently, motionless, and watched.
A nightbird was alarmed and fluttered through the woods, but they remained unmoved.
"Don't come here, I'll shoot if I come again!"
Svek clearly noticed that there was a bit of tremor in his voice, and he couldn't tell whether it was fear or the sudden and sharp drop in the temperature around him.
If a person's murderous aura can distort the air and lower the temperature, this is probably the most appalling thing.
The other person stopped.
"The second scroll, did you take it?"
When the other party asked, his throat seemed to be stuffed with a layer of cotton yarn with fine holes, and his voice seemed very tattered.
It was the most peculiar vocalization Svecker had ever heard.
"Your Excellency is referring to that scroll on the pyramid next to the Savage Tribe?"
"That's right, did you take it?"
"Yes and what, no and what?"
"The content, what it is, tell me. ”
"Why should I tell you, tell me first, who are you, are you island keepers, and what are the responsibilities of island keepers?"
The man raised his left hand and waved it.
"Catch it alive. ”
Sveker's musket rang off, and a bullet struck the man's armor with a clang, striking.
The bullet seemed to hit a steel plate, making a crisp impact sound.
He didn't look like anything was going on, and when the bullet hit his body, he just shook slightly.
What a domineering armor!
Knock knock, the wind behind him passed, Svek lowered his head, turned around, and fired again!
Clang!
A giant hammer slammed into the air in a graceful arc.
Svek was hit by a giant hammer, and with a thud, it flew high and smashed to the ground.
The attacker couldn't help but sigh, and he heard the sound of metal crashing.
Svek is also wearing armor, the armor given to him by the cardinal, if there is no protection of armor, then a heavy hammer down, Svek will lose his combat effectiveness in an instant if he does not die.
But he didn't get up, and lay on the ground.
The footsteps of the monster were slowly approaching, approaching. 、
One two three......
Svek silently counted.
Bang!
He suddenly rolled over and shot the nearest person in the face.
Svek saw the blood sprawl on his face, blooming like a fountain in the colorful moonlight.
The hapless guy let out a terrifying scream, a doomsday howl like a ghost.
He covered his face and boomed like a wall falling.
The screaming stopped abruptly!
Taking advantage of the moment when the other party was stunned, Sveek jumped up like a leopard, found a small gap, and jumped out of the encirclement with a whoosh.
"Kill him!"
Svek turned around and fired two shots, hitting a monster with a strange grinding sound, and the thick-scaled monster roared and crashed into his master in anger.
I'll go, what a beast this is!
Svek had no intention of fighting, so he could only run desperately.
In the forest, there are many bushes, more bushes, and thorns everywhere.
In order to survive, he didn't care about the inhuman abuse of the skin on his body, and only cared about running.
The monster was covered in strong armor, with all the barbs, the branched branches, and the thatch on its thorny face like tickling.
It was so fast that it came up in the blink of an eye.
Svecker secretly complained!
Whoosh, an arrow came and struck the throat of the man on the monster's back.
Plop, he fell!,
It's Augustine, it's Augustine.
"Sir, sir, this way, this ......."
Svecker ran in the direction of Augustin's shouting, only to see that six of his men had gathered in a heap.
"What's the situation, what's the situation?"
Boom, five monsters rushed out behind him, earth-shattering momentum!
Beechcraft exclaimed, 'Wow, what?'
"Don't worry about anything, run, run! Augustine, you stay, follow me, stop!"
Rodin was the first to retreat, he was frightened, Tu Gordon followed, and Satsuma was not far behind, quickly catching up, becoming the first to escape.
Adolf hesitated for a moment, saw that the situation was not good, and quickly followed.
Beechcraft did not retreat, but advanced, holding a hammer to meet him.
", this madman!"
The greatsword and hammer collided, and Beechcraft was cut off and shouted, "Head, prick, gang up to kill him!"
As soon as Beach made an initiative, a hammer slammed into him, and Beach ducked his head to dodge, and a tree thicker than the mouth of the bowl was smashed by the hammer.
Damn it!
Bang bang muskets rang out, swishing and whizzing, Augustine's bow and arrows were constantly being released, and they were specifically aimed at the heads or throats of those men, which was the weakest point.
Bang, Svek suddenly flew out, and an iron chain ball flew out of nowhere, smashing him into the air.
Brush, brush, brush, a dozen whirling knives were aimed at Augustine like eyes.
Augustin was so unresponsive by so many whirling knives that he didn't know how to hide.
Beach, who ran back, pushed him to the ground.
Sveck stood up: "Retreat, retreat!"
His musket finally suppressed the speed of his pursuers, and the three of them fought and retreated, until they had time to catch their breath when they had descended the hill and crossed the drawbridge.
