Chapter 86: Death Threats

Old Vernon was in front, Augustus was close behind, and the two figures, one old and one young, calmly walked towards the enemy who wanted to bury them. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The same gray rough linen, the same resolute look, the deployment from Christopher was obviously more decisive and elaborate than Francis, which can easily be deduced from the steady pace of the swordsmen slowly approaching, 6 swordsmen, not so much swordsmen, but more appropriate to be knights who left their horses, just by their resolute temperament and fierce killing intent, it was enough for Augustus to conclude that they must be from the Christopher family's 6 most elite men in the Knights, and elite means strong, and this attack certainly could not be just a small trouble, as old Vernon said。

He really didn't know why Christopher, who had been quiet for so long, suddenly declared war, but he knew that once Christopher officially declared war on Alfred, the outcome was already settled.

Dead one, alive one, there is no other possibility.

Augustus, who had lifted his sword upside down, narrowed his eyes.

Suddenly, the old butler, who was moving forward calmly, suddenly stopped, wearing white gloves, he didn't give Augustus time to react at all, in Augustus's stunned expression, his right foot on the ground suddenly exerted force, leaving a deep dent in the ground, facing the enemy in front of him, he did not choose the one in the middle of the lead, but suddenly attacked a swordsman on the left.

The rhythm of the six knights who had left the war horse camouflage swordsman was still the same, and they did not change their formation because of the impact of old Vernon, since they were ordered to cut off the head of Alfred's helmsman and bring it back, then the rest of the matter naturally did not need to be thought about too much, and their eyes only needed to be on the young man opposite.

Old Vernon instantly appeared in front of the swordsman on his left.

The five swordsmen who fanned towards Augustus were less than 10 meters away.

Augustus subconsciously clenched the big sword in his hand, sensing that the swordsman in front of him seemed to be preparing to charge, and he cautiously made the final preparations.

He knew that with his current awakened knight's strength, it was impossible to confront the power of level 5 Dou Qi head-on, not to mention that the current situation was still facing 5 swordsmen whose strength was at least level 5 or above at the same time, so don't mention the chances of winning, even the slightest chance Augustus would not be able to find it, especially his 'mind interference' would not dare to use it easily in this situation.

He knew very well that these determined knights were definitely not comparable to the adventurers sent by Francis last time, and once he used his unique magic, he could only face the sad situation of having no power to fight back after the magic was forcibly interrupted.

But even so, Augustus could not stand still.

The swordsmen facing him had raised their broadswords, and Augustus was equally silent and held them horizontally in front of him.

He was just about to take the initiative to attack with his speed, but his eyes suddenly slid in the direction of Old Vernon.

"Click. ”

The crisp sound of a broken neck resounded through the streets without warning.

The scene fell silent.

The attacking swordsmen subconsciously looked in the direction of Old Vernon, and together with Augustus, they witnessed the scene of their companion slowly falling to the ground, and they were suddenly shocked, how could they have thought that this old man who they had explained to him and could not be taken lightly could be so powerful? You know, that is a real knight whose strength is in the middle level of level 6, does killing a level 6 knight in such an instant mean that the old man has at least level 8 or higher?

Augustus was equally shocked, he knew that his old butler used to be extremely powerful, but now he was only a level 7 intermediate strength after all, but because he himself looked at that place earlier than these swordsmen, he clearly captured the old butler's powerful strength, and the speed that was completely inconsistent with the level 7 fighting qi could have, especially the two combined were even more terrifying, you know, the attributes of the fighting spirit can only be focused on a little bit, but the old Vernon is obviously balanced and grasps the commonality of speed and strength, if it weren't for Augustus knowing that his old butler has the power of fighting energy, he would even think that the old butler is also through the source of faith like him。

He was shocked, and the swordsmen were stunned, but old Vernon did not hesitate in the slightest, easily twisted the head of an enemy, and he appeared at the nearest swordsman to Augustus with great speed, and then sideways to avoid the swordsman's great sword that slashed at him, and his white-gloved palm was already in the swordsman's throat.

Concise and overbearing.

There was almost no room for resistance, and another swordsman simply fell to the ground.

......

At this time, including Augustus, everyone clearly saw the true intentions of old Vernon, he did not choose the most powerful leader in the middle, but killed them one by one, making it clear that he was buying time and opportunities for Augustus, this idea is indeed no problem, but the key is that if the two companions who died still can't see the intentions of old Vernon, then this group of knights is really stupid.

"Leave me alone, take his head with all your might. ”

Not surprisingly, the leading swordsman in the middle made a decision quickly, and with his low command, he also took the initiative to meet Old Vernon at a very fast speed, and then he entangled Old Vernon with the power of level 7 Initial Fighting Qi, and began to restrict Old Vernon's movements with the big sword in his hand, not seeking to succeed in killing Old Vernon, the purpose was very clear, that is, at the cost of his life, so that Old Vernon had no possibility of realizing his intentions.

A level 7 swordsman gave his life just to entangle him, and it was really difficult for old Vernon to get out again, even if he was still in the realm of Urano, but his strength was drastically reduced after all.

The remaining 3 swordsmen in the field took advantage of this opportunity very well, and from the front of Augustus, the 3 men attacked at the same time, causing Augustus to resist and retreat again and again, trying to delay time under the siege of the 3 people, and win the time when the old Vernon escaped.

However, his only choice was of course what the three swordsmen could realize, almost when Augustus began to retreat, the three of them quickly divided into three directions, forming a triangle to surround Augustus in the street, Augustus could only struggle to survive under the three big swords in front of him.

He could dodge a great sword that slid through his neck, but the great sword that stabbed him in the heart behind him was no longer something he could dodge.

His strength does have speed at the same time, but how can he use his speed when he is besieged.

However, to the level of an awakened knight, in the face of 3 swordsmen with an average strength of 6 levels of fighting energy, Augustus had no chance at all.

The long sword inevitably pierced Augustus's vest, and even if he reacted quickly, after Augustus swung his sword to block another big sword in front of him, he was still injured and bleeding after all.

And the blood also made Augustus feel the immediate threat of death for the first time.

This is not the kind of death he faced when he first came to this world, but he really smelled the smell of death.

Another long sword slashed across Augustus's shoulder, and the pain was so severe that he couldn't help but want to drop the greatsword in his hand.

But he still stubbornly held the big sword, coldly faced with the threat of death, he was silent and never gave up.

......

On the carriage opposite, of course, she will not leave, she has also received swordsmanship instruction since she was a child, even if the strength of the fighting spirit is only level 3, it will not play a role at all, but seeing Augustus's blood, Elizabeth could not continue to watch, she did not look at Sophia beside her, and casually pulled out the delicate narrow sword that belonged to her in the carriage, and she suddenly jumped out of the carriage and tried to appear next to Augustus.

However, Sophia, who didn't notice Elizabeth's reaction at first, jumped out of the carriage faster, grabbed her hand, and then met Elizabeth's frowning expression, Sophia slowly pulled out a roll of parchment.

If it had been the past, whether the parchment in her hand was more important or Augustus was more important, it really wouldn't be a problem.

But now, whether the parchment in her hand was more important or Augustus was more important, it would not be a question.
