The sword was in the hand of a man who stood at Salazie's side.
However, no one noticed where this person came from, which is why this sword came so quickly, as if it cut through the void, and came to the front of the Sword Master without warning, pointing straight to the point! The timing was extremely terrifying, as if the Sword Master himself swooped forward and sent his throat up to open the other party!
The person who stabbed this sword could not be the old knight, because Salazi had been paying attention to his movements - although he also raised his sword, Raymond had been knocked dozens of feet away before, and now that the effect of the double acceleration technique had faded, even if he could move, the injuries piled up on his body were probably already making it difficult for him to run, and it was extremely difficult to even keep up with Salazi's speed, let alone stab this sword.
Those enemies further away, even the spellcaster, didn't make any action at the moment.
"You ......"
Salazi struggled to squeeze out a note, and then found himself in the rush of the queen leap - in the central mountain range with the army, the orc battle tempered by the subconscious to save him, the moment his throat was opened, the heart of pain in his hand snapped downward, and the burst of sword light blasted a large crater several feet in diameter in the ground!
Tingling pain after an itch in the neck. Let Juggernaut reach out and hold it down, and then feel the sticky, warm liquid expand along his palm. The smell of blood penetrated his nostrils, and the thrilling fear almost blew the pores of his whole body in an instant. If not, it didn't feel like the blood was gushing. Salazie was almost in a state of dismay, covering his wounds with his hands.
Raising his gaze from the blood in his palm, the Sword Master's eyes widened as he looked at the long sword that had stabbed him...... The blade of the sword is sharp and narrow, about four feet long, and the blade reflects the glimmer of the surrounding flames, as if it is a brilliance, but there is no slightest fluctuation of magic power, only the brass sword and the curved cage handle are the most familiar styles—it is the standard long sword uniformly issued by the knights of Jin Jinhua.
The hand that holds the sword is also wearing the same metal gloves used by the knights. Underneath it was a layer of thin chain metal armor, which together formed a part of the whole body armor, and this delicate armor also did not have any magical fluctuations, but only thought that it was a delicate style, covering the person's body, outlining a delicate curve belonging to a woman on the chest and waist.
A woman?
Moreover, it is a young woman with a beautiful face that is enough to move the Sword Saint on weekdays...... It was just the flush that appeared on her face when she looked at her that it confused Salazi - she didn't look powerful. No, even too weak...... Her hand holding the sword was trembling, her breathing was shriveled, and even her eyes were wandering. If they go head-to-head, Salazie is almost certain he will be able to kill three or four of those opponents in a split second. However, the truth is that it is such an adversary. Almost a sword pierced his throat!
That sword wasn't really subtle, it was just the simplest one-handed stab. It's flat, it's straight. But even twenty years ago, Salazie would have been able to stab a sword much faster than that...... The scary thing about this sword is not the speed, nor the strength, but the opponent with the sword, who appeared at his side at some point, and he didn't notice it in the slightest!
Who exactly is she and how did she appear?
Salazi didn't have time to think...... Although it was only a short interval of less than a breath from the arrival of that sword to his avoidance, it had wasted too much of his time. In order to save himself, the sword he had originally attacked his opponent was wasted, and he did not rush to the original position, let alone kill the maid disguised as the secret agent - for a moment, Salazie's breath almost stopped!
In her eyes, the woman had turned into a shadow, but no matter which shadow held a short sword in her hand!
O Emperor......
The Sword Master lamented powerlessly in his heart for a moment, and almost closed his eyes...... Because it was his good eyesight that allowed him to clearly see that the short sword was less than three feet away from the countess's hand, the baby's body, and at such a distance, if he wanted to prevent the blow of a skilled killer, he probably had to rely on the legendary blessing of the emperor.
Mary also closed her eyes.
In the face of a killer's stabbing and the inevitable sharp blade, as the most normal reaction of ordinary people, it seems that this is the only way...... But in her mind, she wanted to turn her body and use herself to block the enemy's ferocious thrust, and she wanted to throw the baby backwards, hoping that maybe one of the guards would catch him. Or even if it falls to the ground, it's far safer than being stabbed by that blade.
However, she also seemed to know very well in her heart that it was all in vain - the speed of the killer was too fast, whether it was turning or raising his hand, it was impossible to be faster than the other party.
Deep fear is like a piece of cold ice that has been sealed in a qiē, and without appearing, it has already allowed the cold to spread into the marrow of the person, and time seems to be stretched infinitely, and the world has fallen into a deep silence, leaving only his soul to face this qiē alone, only the monotonous and manic heartbeat beats Maria's ear drums.
Again, again......
There seemed to be countless images flashing through my mind...... His once carefree but premature childhood, the once innocent but eventually ended by the old ruler's dream, the chaotic and decadent days, and ...... The terrifying and eccentric young man, but who seemed to have changed himself.
Where would he be, and would he have known about the impending misfortune of this child with whom he had a deep relationship?
The messy thoughts continued like this, until a force tugged at her body. Also put the weight of the body. The noise and flickering fires around it...... All the feelings of a qiē were stuffed back into her mind. She heard herself screaming. Hysterical, also heard the tinkling of metal striking. Soon, however, she noticed that something soft was on her shoulders, and the warmth felt through the fabric, as if it had banished all the fear and cold!
She opened her eyes, and then she saw the swaddling clothes in her hand.
The cloth was a little messy, but there was no blood or chipping in sight, and the baby's small face was exposed to the package, and the small face was red from the surrounding firelight. Sweet sleep is in full swing.
But that maid, or spy, killer...... Whatever it was, she was just as close, and she still held the short sword in her hand,
It wasn't because her conscience suddenly found that she couldn't bear to hurt her and her child again, but because the sword was cut off and the man stretched out two fingers. Just like that, she lightly clamped the blade of the sword, and no matter how much she strengthened, the blade of the sword did not move at all.
The agent reacted quickly, and after one attempt, he immediately let go and hurriedly withdrew more than ten feet away.
The town's guards had formed a loose circle on the periphery. Warriors with longbows and crossbows climbed the walls and the rooftops around them, and mages were already visible in the sky, but the agents were not worried. The few people around him were enough to pose a threat to the child in that person's hands, and it was absolutely impossible for something like an arrow to attack.
But the problem is the one in front of you.
The small body propped up a robe. The heavy linen was a little old, and the hem that hung down to the calf was splattered with mud. Revealing a pair of half-worn deerskin boots—a very ordinary traveling cloak, with no magic fluctuations, and the magic net around him was smooth and thin, and he was obviously not a powerful spellcaster, but how did he appear here quietly?
He stood in the middle of his field of vision, calm...... But it is nothing.
If you can't see him, then you can't feel his existence, or it should be—lifeless, like an emptiness.
He stood there, holding out a hand to the Marquise Maria, and threw the dagger to the ground. At first glance, his movements are full of flaws, a killer with good ability can easily choke his neck, break his hands and feet, whether it is subdued or killed, it is extremely easy, but the experience of being a killer constantly warns in the depths of his consciousness, telling the spies dressed as maids to stay away immediately.
Run as far as you go.
"What a bunch of fierce guys. ”
She heard the man's voice, but no sooner had her mind turned, and a terrible shock exploded in the spiritual world.
The power was so intense that even an agent like her had never experienced or even imagined it...... Or is it a myriad of swords, axes, and guns slashing through it? Or is it a pot of boiling olive oil boiling in my thoughts?
She couldn't think, she couldn't escape, she could only scream.
The cry was like that of a dying beast, so terrible that the nearby Marquise trembled...... She saw that the pretty face of the agent in front of her was completely distorted, and blood was spelling out from her nostrils and eyes, and for a moment it was as intense as a spring!
The scream was short-lived, for the terrible pain immediately took the agent from her senses, or rather, 'freed' her. However, the screams did not stop...... With the sudden appearance of the person as the center, there seemed to be a circle of waves invisibly surging, and within a radius of 100 feet, from the ground to the walls and roofs, whether it was the invader or the guards, dozens of people were lodging, curling up, rolling, without exception!
The sharp noise has instantly fallen into silence, like an invisible switch has been twisted.
So, the soldiers who were forming an encirclement stopped, and the mages froze in fear, like an icefall...... It was as if even the night wind had stopped flowing at this moment.
"That's it?"
Maria Antonia Zorgen Jofroy hugged her child tightly and heard the man say. The soft voice made her face pale.
She couldn't comprehend what had just happened. But that vision was enough for her to be sure that the person around her was absolutely terrifying and powerful...... However, even as she tried to widen her eyes and try to discern who this powerful being was, she found herself in vain—the long hood of the other man hung low, casting a heavy shadow over his countenance, and the already dim fire around him was obliterated by the darkness. Even when the distance was so close, it was impossible to see a single trace of it.
A little wrinkle rose in the hood. To Maria's surprise, she almost subconsciously said, "Although I don't know who you really are." But...... Thank you. ”
Her voice froze—
Is it really salvation? Is this mysterious figure who suddenly appears and knocks down a group of people quietly really come to save her? And if so, for what purpose? Is it just like those people, but for his own children?
"I can take you away. ”
"Where?" was still a soft voice, seemingly with a smile. Difficult for the Marquise to guess, she had to inhale again to settle her chaotic thoughts: "If you can, I hope you can send us to ......"
"What about the pay?"
"What?" she froze again: "I...... I can give you anything!"
"Okay, but you're leaving. At least you have to pay a deposit, don't you?
"This ...... If I can leave, I can give you whatever you need, I swear by the honor of Jofrois......"
"Space is overflowing, and there is no sincerity at all. What's more, what do you guarantee by that name? Isn't your family already severing all economic ties with you?"
The words that were interrupted again completely shattered Maria's already chaotic thoughts. She felt like she was going to be, no, crazy...... Deposit?Now I have nothing. If you don't even have a single jewel for those talismans, what can you get that can make a powerful deposit that is worthy of zài?
Or is he simply teasing himself?
However, it doesn't look like ...... Mary's gaze turned. In the distance, the sword saint Salazzi was raising his sword and confronting the old knight Raymond and an unknown knight. The latter holds a sword in one hand and a wand in the other. They were slowly backing away, back in their direction towards Maria.
Seem. Are they the ones along the way?
"What? If I can't decide on the pay, I'm going to leave all three of you here?" As if reading through her thoughts, the man's voice sounded at the right time, "Also, the longer you delay, the harder it will be for us to leave, you should know it, right?"
"But, but I don't have anything now, but I can promise you...... I can give you whatever you need, as long as I can do it. Mary fell to her knees suddenly. His voice trembled, and he was close to sobbing.
For a powerful and mysterious being, she didn't know how to pray at all, so she could only subconsciously choose this primitive method.
A beautiful woman knelt down and looked up, her voice full of sorrow and supplication. Or, it's enough to satisfy most people, but the person is still indifferent, "No? think about it, you don't have much, but it's enough?"
A blush suddenly appeared on Mary's pale face, and the man's understated voice seemed to guide her...... At least I felt that I had guessed the other party's purpose - she was not without nothing, she still had her last and most powerful weapon, her beautiful body.
However, the flush on her cheeks was actually more anger than the shyness that came from that thought.
How despicable!
But does she have any options?
"Well, I promise you, I'll give it to you, after we're gone...... But you have to keep us safe......" She gritted her teeth and slowly stood up, but the man interrupted her again: "After that, let's talk about it later, I said it, I want a deposit." ”
"What?"
"At least, I have to inspect the goods, don't I?"
"Here, this ......"
"Haven't you always liked things that are heavier? like whips or something, isn't it more exciting to have more people?"
The Marquise's eyes widened at her, and then she realized that the person in front of her was an absolute madman she had not expected...... An unimaginable madman! He said he was going to do that kind of thing here...... This is a battlefield! What did he do with the people around him? What's more, was he really sure that he would get out safely in the midst of this siege? Or did he already know that he couldn't escape, so he made these crazy moves?
"Don't believe me......?"
A mocking sneer sounded from under the heavy cloak. Then he held out a hand.
At that moment, a snaking bolt of lightning appeared in the space, but the scorching red light was far smoother and straighter than the lightning, and it burst from the man's fingertips, piercing the sky and connecting to a mage in the sky two hundred feet away, and then turning outward from his body to another...... As if in the blink of an eye, the light had connected all the ten mages in the sky, as well as the ten warriors crouching on the rooftops of nearby houses.
The light appears, fades. Catch everyone's attention.
Then, their eyes were lit up by the stars of red...... The whole square was immediately shrouded in a bright red light, as if the morning sun had risen in the middle of the night, and the light of all things was swayed!
But this light, every flame, was a wail of pain, it was not the cry of human autonomy, but the explosion of the flames that oppressed all the air in their lungs, boiling and expanding the blood in their abdomen!
