"Assault!"

Caterina's voice echoed through the battlefield again, and the powerful impact of power sent the enemy in front of the knight girl into the air, and she finally came to Pomma in the chaos.

"I'll cover your retreat!"

Caterina pulled Poma away, and with a deft swing of her long sword, she left a trailing enemy wounded on her body, and her condition was much stronger than that of the mercenary leader, mainly due to the enemy's attention being attracted by the powerful and powerful attacks of the second-order warriors.

However, the next situation does not seem to be favorable, the bandits formed a semi-encirclement and a desperate attack, the back four riders gradually began to accelerate, and the outermost row of riders who have not yet shot have been eyeing the tiger, and now want to return to the formation not only to break through the encirclement that has not yet been formally formed, but also to compare speed with horses.

One of the riders slapped his mount with a broad-bladed sword, and the pony soared in speed under the stimulation of severe pain, and in the blink of an eye it passed the other three, if it continued at this speed, it was estimated that the two would be caught up after a maximum of ten paces, and the mercenaries in the distance were so anxious that they almost gave up their own defense to reinforce them.

"Maintain your formation!"

Poma roared, and then used her fist to cooperate with Caterina to blast away an enemy in the retreat, and the knight girl was also very calm, ignoring the pursuers behind her, and the long sword in her hand deftly swung out to stab the bandit who had just rushed to the front.

"Get out of the way!"

The rider who was in the lead roared, not caring whether the friendly party in front of him had time to run away, and rushed over without slowing down in the slightest.

The rider's blade was raised high, and even Poma's strength could not resist the blow if he was caught by the momentum of his horse's galloping attack.

"Be careful!" Leon clenched his fists tightly and couldn't help but cry out, he found that even in his previous life, even if he faced the most ferocious monsters in the game, the nervous Cheng Dù was nothing compared to reality, and he only hoped that Katerina and the mercenary leader could dodge and quickly return to the main formation.

What followed was much to his surprise, and the rider's sinister smile was only halfway shown, when a short dagger appeared in front of his neck, and then the dagger slashed and left a deep cut in his throat.

The rider realized what had happened, and his wanton smile immediately turned into horror, and he put his hand around his neck to hold down the blood that spurted out, but in vain, the strength of his whole body had disappeared with the blood spurted, and his body collapsed limply, rolling off the galloping horse's back.

Behind him was the assassin in the tavern who had mocked Leon, his squinting eyes glinting with a sharp light, and he shook off his dark burqa with one hand, disappearing into the shadows once more.

"The leader of the Dark Eagle Mercenary Regiment, Creek, a second-order professional, an assassin. ”

Sophia said softly from the side.

"This person really has real talent and learning, seeing that he saved Caterina and Poma, I don't have to worry about him......" After the crisis was resolved, Leon was in a good mood, thinking "generously".

At the same time, Creek reappeared behind a rider, the Assassin's stealth being overwhelming, and although the rider was on guard, he did not react until the moment the dagger stabbed into the neck.

Knowing that he was going to die, the rider no longer cared about his own injuries, and slammed his elbow directly backwards with all his might, and the guarded Creek stretched out his palm and gently supported the opponent's elbow to defuse the attack, and took advantage of the situation to float away and disappear in the shadows again.

It can be said that if the clouds are always shrouded, Creek, as a second-order assassin, will be able to exert his greatest strength, and maybe he will be able to turn the tide of the battle.

Without the threat of the riders, Caterina and Poma fought and retreated, and soon approached the defenders' positions, the archers shot off several bandits who were chasing them, and Poma stood at the entrance of the fence and shouted, "Come back Creek, we are safe!"

There was no response, the bandits and riders gathered around to guard the elusive Creek, and there was no other sound on the battlefield after Poma's voice fell.

"Damn, Creek must have made the same mistake again......" Poma's brow furrowed, and for some reason an uneasy feeling rose from the bottom of his heart, "Archers on alert, don't release arrows without my orders!"

Creek was lurking under the trees on the side of the battlefield, and he glanced at the row of riders who were still standing not far away, and then coldly swept over the bandits' faces, and let out a sneer in his heart.

"I didn't catch up in the last battle, those useless mercenaries spread the enemy to a god, it turned out to be like this, and this time even the gods are helping me, so it happened that a heavy dark cloud came......"

His hand rubbed the pouch on his waist, "With two vials of vitality potion, even if all the riders come up, they won't be able to stop me from killing, of course...... It is also reasonable to charge an extra commission for the sake of the potion purchased for a large amount of money. ”

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and Creek launched a "shadow raid".

There was a slightly dim shadow in the vicinity of the bandits, and it was impossible for those who were not particularly sensitive to perception to notice that the deadly assassins were close to them, ready to harvest anyone's life.

The next moment Creek's figure appeared behind one of the two riders, and the dagger had already slit the throat of the other man when he was discovered, and then he shook off his burqa and disappeared without a trace, returning to his previous hiding place.

He gasped slightly, but the rare appearance in front of everyone, especially the pesky Boma, made him excited.

At this time, that guy from Poma must have blushed face, and he was so jealous in his heart. Crick thought triumphantly.

......

Poma is indeed iron-faced.

"That guy, sure enough...... Do you really think that the other party is like dirt that you can knead at will? No matter how you look at the riders who haven't made a move, they are all strong, and if you don't come back, you may soon be in danger!"

"Creek, come back!" he shouted, but still received no response.

But most of the mercenaries watching the battle were as excited as the assassin himself, this time the plan was originally to kill and injure the opponent's living force by three second-order professionals, and then the ordinary adventurers and militiamen would defend the opponent's concentrated attack, now it seems that the plan was completed perfectly, and I didn't expect the Creek leader of the Dark Eagle Mercenary Regiment to play with the other party so easily, the next battle will be unexpectedly easy, why would Captain Poma let the Creek leader come back at such a good time?

Some people thought of some rumors between the two regiment leaders, and their faces suddenly became bright, and some even began to whisper to each other.

Caterina was expressionless, she didn't have any satisfaction with the seemingly good form, and she didn't care about Creek's behavior, she just turned around and came to Leon's side with a "sigh".

"The first time you've been in a battle like this?" asked the knight maiden.

"Yes. "Leon decided to tell the truth about this kind of matter.

"This battle seems to be much harder than expected, protect yourself, the battle situation is really unfavorable, take Sophia and leave Locke Town immediately. ”

"This kind of instruction doesn't seem to be in line with the war situation...... And your concern for me doesn't fit the way you have always treated me, right?" asked Leon, half-jokingly, half-seriously, and he heard something different from the words.

"You're still too tender, little ghost. The knight girl stared at Li Ang coldly, recovering her usual attitude, "The riders over there are still indifferent under the seemingly obvious disadvantage, which shows that they have no fear and don't care about these losses at all, so when these people join in, the battle really begins, and then you will know how cruel it is." ”

Caterina turned her head to look at it, and then continued to say the following words, "Regardless of whether this battle is won or lost, it is estimated that only 12 out of 10 people present can survive, you were forcibly pulled in by me, so I don't want you to die here just after several tiger escapes, and Sophia is still too young to grow with someone with potential." ”

She gently touched the top of the head of the priest girl whose eye circles began to redden, "When the time comes, you and Li Ang will leave together." ”

"I don't quite understand what you mean. Leon asked alertly.

"Don't pretend anymore, Leon Redfield...... I'll just get straight to the point, I don't know what happened to your family, but doesn't a descendant of a field earl want to do anything after the family tragedy?"

"I don't understand what you mean, Miss Katarina," Leon felt a little nervous

"Heh," Caterina sneered, "the surviving descendants of a noble family who have survived a tragedy will be despised by everyone from the nobles to the commoners if they are timid in such a matter as blood revenge. ”

"Timid, your sister......" Seeing the other party's serious attitude, Li Ang scolded helplessly, where would he have thought that the knight girl would be so sensitive and would reveal his identity so quickly.

Just kidding, the old earl is different from himself in terms of personal strength and strength, and even such a strong man's castle has been breached by a mysterious enemy, what can I do now?

Besides, what do you know? From the conclusion that I have come to the conclusion in my own mind, how this matter is hidden, how to hide a great conspiracy, where I can tell who is the enemy and who is the friend, if it is exposed in the open, it will be a matter of minutes.

But fortunately, these two girls can't be bad people, and they can only hope that they won't reveal their identities at will.

"Okay, I'll admit it, but I have my own plans, please don't ramble about my identity," Leon said solemnly, turning his head to Sophia, who was widening her eyes in curiosity.

While a few people were talking, cheers rang out again, and at this time, two more enemies fell under the Crick's dagger, and the mercenaries shouted loudly, "Captain Crick is doing well!"

The knight girl acquiesced to Li Ang's request, and when she heard the excited commotion around her, she said coldly: "Ignoring the enemy will definitely put you in danger, I want to go back and stabilize the front, you remember what I just said." ”

"Do you think Creek will be in danger next?" asked Leon, "and you said something about faith before, and now that everyone's morale is high, why do you ask me to evacuate when the battle situation is critical?"

"Keeping my faith is my consciousness as a knight, it has nothing to do with you, and ...... People have selfish intentions, don't they?"

Caterina glanced at Sophia, smiled and turned away, the ponytail on the back of her head bouncing up and down with her steps, showing the girl's vitality and her strong will.

Sophia held the scepter in her arms, her eyes fixed on the direction of Caterina's departure, as if muttering to herself, "Brother Leon, you won't leave, will you?"

Leon also looked in that direction, looked at the girl, and felt a touch in his heart. The mentality of the game before seemed to be drifting away from his current thoughts, and he clenched his fist and tapped his head slightly.
