Fran pulls Gio and hides in the bushes by the side of the road. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"What are you going to do?"
Geo asked nervously in a whisper.
"Push them out. ”
"How?"
"You don't have to do it, you have to watch it well. ”
Fran said.
"Oh. ”
Geo nodded.
Without speaking, Fran told Geo to close his eyes and led him into the jungle with a secret technique.
When Geo opened his eyes again and tried to speak, Fran stopped him with his eyes, and Geo could only swallow what he wanted to say.
Fran motioned for him to look ahead.
Geo cautiously poked his head out and cautiously looked in the direction Fran had indicated, but he saw nothing.
Geo looked at Fran with a wired look of confusion.
Seeing Geo's appearance, Fran smiled and motioned for him to stay here.
Watching Fran disappear before his eyes with a secret technique, Geo's mouth opened in surprise, and he now finally understood how Fran had led him into the ruins in the first place.
As Geo reacted, Fran waved at him from a distance, making a gesture of patience at him, and after receiving a response from Geo, he disappeared from Geo's sight again.
"It still didn't help. ”
Despite knowing that Fran would be holding her back by taking him on his feet, Geo was still a little frustrated.
"I still don't know much, but it would be nice if I could learn to stealth. ”
Geo thought to himself.
Stealth is a hunter's high-level skill, many hunters want to learn, but this skill is only qualified to be learned by senior members of the Hunter Guild, Lenor and Fran have not joined the father-in-law, but are only free members of the hunter qualification registered in the guild, strictly speaking, they are not internal members of the father-in-law, so he doesn't know this skill, so no one can teach him.
Thinking of this, Geo was a little helpless.
"Sure enough, the use of monopoly to obtain the greatest benefits exists in any world, just like my original world, powerful countries use the monopoly of technology to gain a huge advantage, and the Mage Guild and the Hunter Guild both use skills to monopolize and control the entire group. ”
There is no way for Gio to change this matter, the people at the top of the guild use skills to attract people to join them, and control them to obtain greater benefits, and in order to learn better skills, they can only choose to join them, and better skills are only qualified to learn after making a great contribution to them, this is an endless cycle, and the qualification to learn is really in the hands of the guild leaders, and many people often make great contributions but do not get the same learning opportunities.
As Gio thought about these things, there was a sudden sound of fighting.
"It can't be Fran's accident, right?"
Thinking of this, Geo's heart tightened.
While Geo was worried about Fran, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder.
Startled, Geo turned around and saw Fran looking at him with a smile behind him.
"Why did you come back all of a sudden?"
Gio asked with a sigh of relief when he saw that Fran was okay.
"Cut, it's not those guys, I could have solved a few more people, but as soon as they made a mess, they were discovered by the other party, and the fight started. ”
Fran pouted, looking unhappy.
"Those guys?"
"It's the mercenaries who were hired with us. ”
"Oh, it's them. ”
It dawned on Geo.
"Cut, the hidden technology is so bad that it will be discovered as soon as you get close to others, really. ”
Looking at Frangio, who was playing with a petty temperament, he could only smile helplessly.
"What now?"
"I have no choice but to fight them head-on. ”
"But will they come out?"
Geo was a little confused.
"In this case, the other side has only two choices, either leave and abandon the attack, or play head-on if we find out, but if it were me, I would definitely choose to leave and find the next opportunity. ”
"Well, it's true, it's clear that the sneak attack was forced by us to fight head-on, which is very bad for them. ”
"Shall we go back to the carriage then?"
"Hmm. ”
Fran took Geo's hand and carefully walked back to the carriage along the bushes.
"Whew~ You should be able to get a good night's sleep, right?"
Geo said jokingly.
"Hehe~ It should be possible. ”
And just as they relaxed, something surprising happened.
"Get rid of them!"
As soon as the sound fell, they saw the enemies who were ambushing them rushing out of the jungle on both sides and attacking in the direction of their convoy.
"The leader of the enemy who attacked us this time can't be an idiot, right?"
The two looked at each other speechlessly, thinking to themselves.
Looking at the few people running in their direction, the two could only draw their weapons.
Because the enemy was targeting the first wagon, most of the enemies who attacked them were heading there, and only 2 of them attacked them, perhaps because they thought that Geo was no threat to them?
Fran looked at the two enemies running towards them and met them.
Geo watched Fran outfight him, but he wasn't worried, because he could see that Fran wasn't using all his strength, and he was at ease, thinking that he didn't want to get involved in the other battles.
Geo watched Fran play the other badly, a little speechless.
"It's called paddling, right?"
Geo thought.
Despite this, Geo still observes carefully, and for a rookie, close observation is very helpful for his learning.
As the battle progressed, more and more enemies fell, and it was obvious that the opponent's combat effectiveness was inferior to their team, and the number of people was not superior, and defeat was a matter of time.
"Damn. ”
The leader of the attack saw that more and more people were falling, and cursed secretly.
Although he tried many times to force his way through the opponent's defenses and attack the people in the carriage, he was unsuccessful.
"That bastard! How dare you lie to me?"
The enemy leader cursed in his heart, looking at the increasingly unfavorable situation, thinking about how to escape, he was a thief, and he would not do thankless work.
"Drink me and dare to be distracted and look around when I fight, do you look down on me?"
The guards who fought him shouted and attacked him with a more aggressive attack, but the leader of the thieves who fought him could only deal with it in embarrassment, because the convoy guards were much stronger than the hired mercenaries, causing the leader of the thieves to try to escape many times but was entangled, and it was obvious that the guards also saw that he wanted to escape.
"Get out of here!"
Finally, the leader of the thieves seized the opportunity, and with a loud shout, he blocked the guard's sword, pushed him away, and struggled to escape.
"Don't try to run!"
The guards of the convoy saw the other party fleeing and hurriedly chased after them.
Seeing this, the leader of the thieves had no choice but to run towards the end of the convoy, because both sides were blocked by guards, and he could only choose this direction to break through.
The leader of the thieves, who had broken through to the rear of the convoy, had eyes lit up when he saw Geo.
"Take this guy hostage!"
Thinking of this, he immediately rushed towards Geo, after all, the situation did not allow him to think too much.
Seeing the enemy rushing towards Geo, Fran was in a hurry, and hurriedly swung her sword to force back the two thieves who were fighting her, but her opponent was very happy to see their leader rushing towards them, and thought that she wanted to help them, and struggled to entangle Fran, who was anxious to approach Geo, but almost injured them.
Geo looked nervously at the enemies rushing towards him.
"Whew~~"
Taking a deep breath, Geo struggled to calm himself down.
"You can't keep dragging your feet. ”
Remembering how many times he had hid behind Fran to avoid danger, Geo relented.
"I've been practicing for so long, and I hope it works. ”
Gio thought of using the Breath Technique in battle, a technique that Gio had been practicing along the way, and even though it was painful for him to practice each time, he continued to do so every day.
Determined, Geo took the short sword and began to control his breath.
"This little imp won't want to deal with me, will he?"
The leader of the thieves, who saw Geo holding the knife, chuckled in his heart, and without any hesitation, rushed straight towards him.
"You can do it. ”
Geo made up his mind.
Remembering the only skill he had learned, Geo changed his posture.
Ignoring Geo's appearance, he swung his knife at his knife, after all, he needed a hostage, not a dead man.
Geo, who was trying to control himself with his eyes closed, opened his eyes when the enemy was only three meters away from him, and everyone thought that Geo was going to fall.
The leader of the thieves was stunned when he saw Geo's eyes, he couldn't imagine what kind of eyes they were, and his eyes didn't fluctuate at all, as if he couldn't see his existence, treating him as something that shouldn't exist at all.
In an instant, his heart was occupied by fear, and he frantically wanted to escape.
The people around them also felt the terrifying killing intent emanating from Geo, like a terrible beast raging in their hearts, and everyone was suppressed by this terrifying aura.
Geo didn't realize what he had done at all, he just knew that he needed to deal with the person in front of him and not cause trouble for Fran.
Despite the pain it would have been for him to use breathing while moving, Geo didn't hesitate.
"Pierce the heart!"
It was the only skill he had learned in the lineage.
The leader of the thieves tried to run away when he realized that Geo was dangerous, but Geo didn't give him the opportunity.
In an instant, Geo rushed over with incredible speed.
And the time between the leader of the thieves rushing towards Geo and the time when Geo uses his skills is only 1.2 seconds.
In an instant, a streamer flashed, and Geo, who was originally in front of him, appeared behind him.
The leader of the thieves still wanted to turn around and took a few steps forward, and finally fell weakly holding his chest, convulsing uncontrollably, with a look of fear on his face.
Seeing the wounds on his body, everyone gasped.
The entire left chest to the abdomen was cut diagonally, and it was clear that the heart had been destroyed.
And Geo clutched his chest and half-knelt on the ground after using the only skill of "piercing the heart".
"Whew... Call... Is it still too reluctant?"
Geo gasped for breath, clutching his chest to the position of his heart, thinking in pain, the sound of his heart beating desperately reminded him that he had exceeded the limit of the load, and the constant throbbing sensation made him almost faint.
"Geo!"
Seeing Gio's painful appearance, Fran ran over in a panic.
Because Gio had killed the leader of the thieves, the guards who chased him helped to deal with the opponent who was pestering Fran.
Fran ran to Geo, picked him up, and walked towards the carriage.
"I'm fine, just rest for a while. ”
Geo looked at Fran's flustered appearance, gasped, and said.
Fran pursed her lips as she looked at Geo, but didn't say anything.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Geo's appearance, and their reactions were mixed.
In Fran's arms, Geo saw the first carriage out of a young girl, very beautiful, but Geo was not in the mood to appreciate it, and his constantly throbbing heart made him break out in a cold sweat.
The girl who got out of the carriage gave Geo a deep look, did not speak, and turned back to the carriage.
Although Geo knew that he could recover after resting, he didn't expect to lie down for a whole day before he recovered.
