Chapter 142: Old People Meet In the Middle
A string-like tremor made the hearts of the two people who had lost too much blood skip a beat. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoA pale green trail in the sun, a crimson arc projected from the man. A bow and arrow had just hit the target, and a second bowstring was already sounding.
"So fast!" the continuous sound of bowstrings sounded, and as the screams faded away, the patrols all fell before they even noticed the enemy.
Bert quietly poked his head out, not knowing who this sharpshooter was. This kind of archery speed is very rare in this world, and he glanced at the soldiers who fell to the ground, all of them were killed by a single arrow, such a high hit rate has surpassed most human marksmen. Who could it be? On this late spring and early summer afternoon, sweat slowly slid down the young man's resolute face, and finally stirred up a light layer of ash on the ground.
A petite figure jumped from the roof of the opposite street, dressed in yellow and green archer leather armor, with long beautiful legs that looked white and translucent in the dazzling sunlight, and long golden hair that had just fallen to the ground, floating out a beautiful arc. The pale blue eyes circled around, locking on to the two people hiding in the corner. The white feather hairpin was quite familiar, and Bert remembered the somewhat domineering but unusually strong Satya Demon Attacker Edith who had followed them to Tallinnburg a few years ago.
Just as she was about to walk out of the street, there was another murmur of footsteps in the distance. The girl immediately leaned against the wall and motioned for Bert not to make a sound. Edith held the bow in her left hand, and with her right hand felt something from her waist and tossed it to the ground. A white figure ran quickly down the street, stopping in an inconspicuous place, staring intently in the direction from which the sound had come.
It was a white kitten, with pale blue eyes like Edith, who was closing her eyes at this point. It turns out that this is a special ability of the Demon Attacker, and each Demon Attacker can gain the ability to communicate with animals when the ability reaches a certain level. Critters that become allies of the Magic Archer can connect with the Magic Archers, either by becoming their eyes and finding their way, or by becoming their helpers, pestering melee enemies and giving them more opportunities for ranged attacks.
The white kitten was supposed to be Edith's animal companion, its white tail growing in fear and making intimidating noises in its throat. If it weren't for the need to help Edith check the enemy's situation, it is estimated that this timid little guy would have run away long ago.
Bert couldn't see what was going on outside the street, but Edith, who was looking across the street, suddenly opened her eyes and walked out. Bert breathed a sigh of relief, it should be Erin and they arrived. Sure enough, Edith beckoned to them, and the sound of noisy footsteps ran quickly, led by Princip and the others.
"President, young master, you have suffered!" Princip threw himself to his knees.
Bert had no strength to speak, so he had to point his finger at Frank, who was already unconscious. Princip struggled to his feet, reaching out to probe his breath. Princip's brow furrowed, his breath was very weak, and his vitality was constantly declining. Several Assassins immediately came over to help bring Frank down, and Princip was carrying all the poison on his body, and there was very little life-saving medicine.
He unloaded the backpack behind him and rummaged through the contents before finding a glass bottle. There was an excited look in Princip's eyes, and he immediately made Frank's mouth open. Bert glanced at it quietly, and there was a cockroach-like bug in the transparent glass bottle. I have long heard that Princip has developed an edible insect that will enter the body after being eaten, and according to Princip's will, it will secrete a substance that can repair injured parts of people. This kind of insect can reach the part that cannot be quickly treated by medicine, and the most important thing in treatment is to stop the bleeding first, if the blood leaks there while being treated, even the miracle doctor will not be able to save people.
Bert watched the worm slowly crawl into Frank's mouth, and now he only felt dry mouth. If he needed this bug when he treated himself later, he would definitely die like this. However, I don't know if Princip is free of bugs, anyway, he was given a pill in the end. Princip was busy for a while, giving them all medicine and bandaging their wounds, and both of them were saved, but they were still unable to fight for a short time.
"Elder, are we going to go out of the city as planned?" asked Bruno.
"Okay, you guys, follow me ahead first. Princip beckoned to several of the Assassins. "The rest of the people will protect the president and the young master in the back, Bruno, they will be handed over to you, if something goes wrong, you will understand. Princip glanced at the two of them who had fallen asleep, and Bruno nodded vigorously.
"Everybody, follow me, continue east!" Princip shouted.
"Wait!" suddenly a voice interrupted him, it turned out to be Edith, who had been listening to him just now.
"What's wrong with this girl?" Princip asked, although the girl was obviously from Satya, but she knew Erin and the others, and saved the lives of Bert and Frank, and Princip still respected her.
"You can't go to the east, there's an ambush there. Edith's words made Princip's mouth grow. "Really? How do you know?"
"I'm a Satya, and I've fought in the Battle of Randall before. Behind the eastern wall there is a perfect place to set up an ambush, where we had defeated the first attack of the Kingdom of the Sun. I think they'll ambush you there this time, too, because that's the only way to the gates. ”
Everyone looked at each other, no wonder there had been no pursuers since they had just broken out, and almost all the other passages along the way had been blocked by various things, either the road was piled with huge stones or the good end of the road had been dug up. They hadn't thought much of it before, but now it seemed that it was all premeditated.
"We're with a few wounded now, and we can't retreat over the roof, so what should we do? Princip panicked, although the Assassins had made a few improvised stretchers, and carrying the wounded did not hinder their movements, it was still very difficult to climb over those obstacles.
"Why don't you go back the way you came? Edith said lightly.
