Chapter 34: The Headless Horseman I

Level 2 Magic Wind Speed is a very useful skill that allows the Wizard to move quickly at a very low level, comparable to the speed of a galloping horse.

The Wind Speed Technique lasts for a full hour, and within this hour, the person who has applied the Wind Speed Technique can travel 60 miles per hour (km, save it, and will not comment on it in the future).

A good war horse may be able to run faster, but it can't last that long. If you run at a constant speed, you don't have such a fast speed.

What Aini couldn't accept was that Neris, who had not blessed the wind speed technique, carried Salin on her back and ran in front of him and Sika all the time.

Nellis showed her white and slender calves, her crystal toes made shallow traces on the ground, and her muscles burst out with great power, I am afraid that she could already be comparable to a high-level swordsman.

In the same way, if a senior swordsman wants to run so fast, and the sword qi is running at full speed, he can't hold on for too long.

The wind blew Nerice's face, and she felt extremely comfortable, she felt that she could still speed up, and she didn't need another demon to chase after her. Generally speaking, after the demon casts an advanced transfiguration technique, the strength will decrease, but Neris does not feel this way, and she can even feel that the transformed muscles are gradually adjusting to output energy more effectively.

This is the effect of the ultimate transformation technique, and the ultimate transformation technique is related to the bloodline of the demon, is he going to become an adult?

The fields were empty, and the four of them quickly broke away from the battlefield. The castle was left far behind, and the sounds of fighting and explosions on the battlefield were no longer audible, only the wind blew through the ears, and the moonlight was like water, which was refreshing.

There were no attacks along the way, and the black golems seemed to have gathered together to attack the castle. An hour passed quickly, and Neris slowed down and stopped, and the anemosis on Aini and Schika disappeared.

Saleen was embarrassed to continue to lean on Neris's back, even though it was comfortable and effortless. He jumped down and asked, "Ani, how far is the town?"

Ani gasped and looked up at the starry sky, discerning her bearings. Although Neris had been running at the front, there was no deviation in any direction, and he calculated for a moment, and replied, "About 30 miles, we have not taken the main road. ”

Salin was a little relieved, it was close to the town, there would be larger villages, and maybe even small noble estates. Salin looked at Aini, who was still panting, and asked, "Can you still walk?"

"Yes. Aini replied through gritted teeth. The 30-mile road, without the blessing of the wind speed technique, would have taken about 6 hours to walk on his legs, and he also knew that it was not completely safe now, and it was not the time to rest.

Autumn in the Duchy of Phoenix was dry, which made Ani suffer a lot. Otherwise, his sick body will lie down tired after walking for a few miles in the mud. After walking for more than an hour, Saleen came across a manor.

Under the moonlight, the walls of the manor were covered with shocking bloodstains.

"Protect Aini. Saleen said a word to Sika, and led Neris to the gate of the manor.

The dirt was soaked in blood and black-purple, and the smell was fishy, but there was not a single corpse in sight. The weirdest thing is that not only is there no one here, not even a fly can be seen. Saleen crouched down, scooped up a handful of dirt, and sniffed.

There was no life, only congealed blood in the dirt, no breath to search for, and no common insects.

The Dark Mage had arrived, and Saleen stood up and slowly retreated, not knowing if there was still an ambush in the manor.

Aini watched Saleen exit the manor's gates and shook her head at him, knowing that something was wrong. If even this place has been washed in the blood of the dark mage, what about the town not far away?

There were only over 10,000 people in that town, and there were 100,000 black golems who appeared in the castle, which means that the black mages had a greater range of activities and killed more people. It's still a long way from the borders of the Duchy of Phoenix, and it's hard to get out of the dark mage's range quickly if you can't find a horse to get around.

However, it is difficult to find any living beings in the range of the black magician's activities.

He was hesitating to enter the manor to rest when the sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance. Looking back, on the road in the distance, five fast horses came galloping, and the people on horseback were lying low, unable to see clearly. Behind the five horses, two headless horsemen were riding in pursuit, getting closer and closer, and the men and horses fleeing in front of them were tired and slowing down.

"Enter Zhuangzi. Salin saw it in his eyes and didn't go up to the rescue, the strength of the Headless Horseman was at least that of a swordsman, and the impact on the war horse was not something that his magic shield could resist. And Salin doesn't know if there is still the power of the black mage behind him, if more headless horsemen appear, in the open field, a dozen headless horsemen can easily kill ordinary mages.

The fleeing people also saw Salin and the others, as if they saw hope, they kicked the horse's belly hard, got off the road, and rushed towards the manor.

The gate of the manor was open, and Saleen did not let Sika close the door, allowing the knights to enter the manor. The Headless Horseman from behind arrived immediately.

The walls of the manor are stone, but not militarized, and the gate is wide, and there is no hidden fortress inside the gate. If the Headless Horseman rushed in, everyone would have to continue to flee behind.

Salin was concentrated, and his magic was already in his hands. Sika stood by the door, saw the moment, brandished his club, and smashed sideways at the Headless Horseman who stormed the door.

The Headless Horseman, led by the Headless Horseman, carried a huge mace in his hand, and smashed it down on his head, aiming it at Shika's head. The mace was covered with metal spikes, like the teeth of a monster. And this mace is all metal casting, and I am afraid it weighs hundreds of catties. In comparison, Sika's club was much smaller.

On the battlefield of thousands of troops, such an impact is extremely terrifying, and even a heavy shield can be smashed away by this blow.

But the gate of the manor was not wide enough after all, and there was no flanking attack from another knight, and Sika staggered to let the mace attack, and the club smashed into the chest of the headless horseman's warhorse.

The Headless Horseman's war horse was draped in heavy iron armor, and the stick was bounced off by the impact of the war horse, and Shika's body turned half a circle in place, unloading the impact of the war horse, and his back had been given to the Headless Horseman.

The five fleeing men who rushed into the manor looked like mercenaries, and they jumped off their horses, grabbed their swords, and blocked the doorway. They are not good at horse warfare and know the importance of guarding the gates. The five mercenaries had to fight, and they saw a young low-level magician standing behind the female warrior, and if the little magician also died, then they had no hope of survival.

Before they could make a move, Saleen's magic had been unleashed in a row. Several mercenaries were dumbfounded. They were also experienced in combat, but they had never seen a mage unleash so much magic in a row. There is almost no time gap between these spells, but the rhythm is bright.

Salin first unleashed an ice ring spell, which was applied to the horse's front legs the moment Sika's club hit the headless horseman's horse.

Although Shika's blow did not cause any damage to the Headless Horseman's horse, her strength was also quite large, causing the horse to pause for a moment. Salin's Ice Ring Technique took advantage of this opportunity to accurately hit the target.

Salin's water magic has some mutated castes, the most obvious is that it has existed for a little longer, but the ice ring technique is only a little more than a second to disappear, and if the enemy does not move, it will not be able to cause any damage.

It's obviously a chicken trick, and in the middle of a fight, who will stop and let you get caught in the trap, and then rush forward and let the ice ring cut itself?

Unlike other mages, Saleen has not much magic to learn at this level, and can only do his best to develop magical effects to make up for the shortcomings of the magic strings. In fact, this is the best time to unleash a terrestrial magic, and a rock spike can knock the Headless Horsemann to the ground. Even swamp spells are considered to be stronger spells for the surname.

Salin took a different path, seized the tenths of a second, and completed the chicken rib magic. After a brief pause from the Headless Horseman, the horse rushed forward, unable to really stop.

The attack power of the Ice Ring Technique obviously belongs to the magic of the third level or above, and the front legs of the Headless Horseman's war horse were instantly cut off and fell to the ground. Immediately, four ice picks shot through the Headless Horseman's hands accurately, and the palms and wrists were pierced. The ice crystals in the right hand holding the mace condensed, becoming extremely fragile, unable to bear the weight of the mace, and snapped and broke.

The five mercenaries were extremely shrewd, in this kind of small-scale battle, the combat effectiveness of the mercenaries was not as bad as that of the elite soldiers of the empire, they immediately gave up their long swords, pulled out their triangular swords, and stabbed them into the joints of the headless horseman's limbs.

The steel armor at the joints was already weak, and the triangular sword itself was designed to break the armor, which cut off the tendons of the headless horseman's limbs in one fell swoop, and Salin's acid splash also hit the headless horseman's body in time.

Another Headless Horseman tried to get away from his fallen companion in front of him, and Sika leapt to his feet, slamming his club into the Headless Horseman's neck. She didn't know the Headless Horseman's weakness yet, and the blow was still creating opportunities for Saleen.

The headless horseman who fell from his horse struggled to fight back, but his limbs were broken, and the five mercenaries clutched the triangular sword, making him unable to exert his strength. They didn't dare to draw their triangular swords, for fear that the Horseman's joints would repair themselves. The acid quickly corroded the Headless Horseman's heavy armor, and Aini approached the Headless Horseman with his strange weapon and poked it hard.

His eerie stick was hollow at both ends, boxy, and spewing flames. If it weren't for the acid that corroded a hole in the Headless Horseman's body, with Aini's physical strength, he would definitely not be able to cause damage to the Headless Horseman. Now it was different, his weapon plunged directly into the headless horseman's chest, and with a bang, the flames erupted violently through the wound, and the headless horseman's body made a terrible sound, writhing even more violently.
