Chapter Twenty-Three: Eliminate Evil

The all-iron crossbow bolt flew over the not-so-distant distance between the two almost instantly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

No matter how fast that mage reacted, unless he was one of the best in the continent like the Masked Man, who could instantly use top-level defensive magic such as Heavenly Armor, or had those instantaneous magic equipment that was so expensive that he broke through the sky that was specially designed to save his life, he would be dead.

But those are the elite class of mages, and if this mage had such ability, he would have become a guest of honor of the major lords and even the royal family, and he would still be under Fabian's hands.

Therefore, his fate seems to be predestined, that is, to die under Sean's deadly crossbow.

But at this moment, Fabian behind him suddenly moved.

Fabian was able to be the captain of the Blood Bat Mercenary Regiment and be in charge of the only team left in the North, which was indeed extraordinary. At least the countless experiences of escaping death in his hooligan career have tempered his senses more sensitively than the average person.

Almost as soon as the bolt was fired, he noticed an attack from Sean's direction.

His eyelids jumped suddenly, and it was too late to give a warning to the people in front of him, so he subconsciously pulled out his saber from his waist in a hurry, swung it over, and slashed at the crossbow arrow flying towards the mage.

With this sword alone, it is enough to prove that Fabian "Fast Hand" is fully worthy of his nickname, whether it is drawing a sword or attacking as lightning.

It's a pity that it's still a little bit worse.

The all-iron crossbow cone, propelled by Madame Tamble's ingenious dual-spring structure, had incredible potential, and although it was slashed by Fabian, it still slashed with lightning speed and continued to fly towards its target.

But after all, it was disturbed, and after being hit, the arrow suddenly sank down and changed direction, and shot into the mage's left rib with a pop.

The mage snorted and fell off his horse.

It was too close, and the chain mail on his body had removed some of the strength of the crossbow arrows, but the steel crossbow cone was almost completely inserted into his body, leaving only a small end exposed.

But while he fell to the right, he actually endured the severe pain and reached out to quickly remove the shield hanging from the saddle, and protected his side after falling to the ground.

In this way, he not only fell between the horse and the cart on his right, but also had a shield on his body, covering himself tightly.

Fabian swung out a sword, although he did not shoot down the crossbow arrow, but he finally saved the life of his companion, he let out a sigh of relief, and was about to loudly remind everyone to pay attention to the enemy attack, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of another crossbow arrow on the left side of the air with a strong wind, aiming at the left side of the rib that he had not had time to retract after swinging a sword.

"So vicious!" Seeing that he couldn't dodge anymore, Fabian cursed, gritted his teeth, and quickly withdrew his left arm to block his side, preparing to use his thick arm to catch the arrow.

There was a muffled sound of "poof", and the whole iron crossbow arrow entered the body, and a huge impact accompanied by severe pain came, and Fabian also quickly flipped to the right side with the help of the force, took off the shield like a mage, and hid between the horse and the cart.

Sean never expected that these people would react one by one, and after hanging the lottery, they could keep a cool head, and they hid tightly by taking the opportunity of falling off the horse, so that he could not make up for the fatal arrow.

It seems that the bald head is right, you really can't underestimate these people in the Blood Bat Mercenary Group. Fortunately, these two key targets were shot by themselves, one seriously injured and the other lightly injured, although neither of them was fatal, but it could also weaken their considerable combat effectiveness.

Sean then adjusted the angle of the crossbow machine, and used the last crossbow arrow in the box to shoot a knight who was slow to react and had no time to raise his shield to protect him, and the fast crossbow cone directly penetrated the opponent's neck, killing him with one arrow.

By this time, the convoy was in disarray, and Fabian's fall left them leaderless for the time being.

Although Talon is the vice-captain, the reason for promoting him is only because he listens to Fabian very much, and to deal with this kind of emergency, this guy with developed limbs and a simple mind is still a little lacking in ability.

At this time, he had just turned over and dismounted, holding a one-man tall tower shield and brandishing a one-handed sword and screaming something in place, but apparently no one listened to him, but bought Sean some time.

Sean looked at the chaos he had created on the avenue, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and then calmly took off the empty arrow magazine and put it into the bracelet, took out a new one and inserted it into the crossbow, and quickly moved to his left side under the cover of the bushes, ready to change places for a new round of shooting.

But just as he was moving quickly, a large golden light suddenly appeared from under the dirt slope.

Sean's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly looked down.

I saw that the mage who had been hit by an arrow in the ribs, hiding between the horse and the cart and covering himself with a shield, was completely shrouded in a golden light.

Then the shield was jerked open, and the mage stood up, the left hem of the white mage's robe completely red with the blood gushing from the wound under his ribs, and the pain was so severe that he could not stand up straight, and could only rely on an oak staff to support himself.

But at this time, the crystal at the top of his staff was shining brightly, and the dazzling golden light shone on the mage's face distorted by pain, making it look more and more hideous.

Then he raised his staff in both hands and slammed it to the ground.

"Buzz!"

A large golden circle of light emanated from the crystal at the top of the staff, sweeping the entire convoy in an instant.

The members of the mercenary group, who were panicked by the sudden attack, immediately calmed down.

Originally, after being shot down by Sean, the remaining people did not know how many enemies there were, let alone where they were, so they could only take off their shields and dismount, and huddle together under the cover of horses and vehicles.

But after being swept by this golden aperture, everyone lifted their shields and stood up, pulled out their swords, and scanned the surroundings with fierce eyes, exuding a thick killing intent on their bodies.

Sean was dumbfounded.

This magic that this mage is trying to unleash is the "fearless" of divine magic!

Only the brave can be fearless.

This range of blessing magic can greatly increase the courage and morale of the caster, and even make them enter a state of frenzy for a certain period of time.

This is a big problem!

Sean never expected that the mage was so seriously injured, and he didn't use a healing spell to save himself first, but instead desperately charged up and released such a magic, which suddenly raised the combat effectiveness of the entire team to a higher level.

What a ruthless character!

But at the moment, he couldn't care about it so much, Sean was already ready to shoot at this time, he changed his position, adjusted his posture, and continued to shoot the crossbow arrow at the mercenary on the avenue. Anyway, the people below were affected by fearlessness, and they all stood on the side of the road with their swords in hand, and it was easier to aim.

But as soon as Sean shot down two people, he heard a loud roar from the side of the convoy:

"Raise your shields and charge with me!"
