Section 36 Anger
The wrestling ended with Rohr giving up, and he chose to retreat and retreat, narrowly avoiding the fatal sword that cut into the neck.
"Cut, it's really a lot of strength. Worthy of a vampire. Rohr grinned.
"What a man of many words. Ashrufat replied.
"But you smell like this...... Why do you smell so familiar? But I'm not old, so my memory shouldn't be so bad. By the way, you were the one who fled on horseback that day in Oren!"
Listening to Rohr's words, Ashrufat's movements suddenly stopped
"By the way, I remember that woman fell into the hands of Archbishop Karl, who was a real pervert, and had a penchant for abusing women to death. ”
Ashrufat stood there, he didn't seem to move, but Rohr could clearly feel the powerful killing intent rising from the other party's body. If the vampire was only passionate and excited before, at this moment he was really angry.
"Angry......? Is that too impulsive? That woman shouldn't be your woman...... Gee...... I forgot to care about what happened to that woman, anyway, she must have been tossed to death by the archbishop's inexplicable things!"
"Rohr, don't irritate him!" Perrin shouted, and even Perrin in the distance sensed that something was wrong. He always had a magic arrow on his bow, but he couldn't find the right opportunity to shoot it.
"Deputy Commander, it wasn't you who took the lead in leading us to chase after us. Isn't it the same thing I did to catch the woman with my own hands? Don't you dare to admit what you dare to do?, wouldn't it be more interesting for our friend to know this?" Rohr shouted back at Perrin.
"Idiot, watch ahead!" Perrin roared. This time, however, Ashrufat did not take advantage of Rohr's turn to attack.
"Idiot, don't compare me to the bunch of shit. I'll be sad in that case. ”
"Monkey play!" said Ashrufat, in a low voice, surprisingly calm.
"Monkey show, oh, my fellow crap is ......."
"You're only a monkey trick! a little better than your companions. I thought you had a lot of skills. ”
"Ahhh......h I'm so confident. Vampire! I'll tell you a secret, I didn't have all my strength just now. Help me!" Rohr's last words were shouted at Perrin.
Perrin sighed and fired an arrow, but it wasn't aimed at Aeshurufat—he hit Rohr right in the back. Puzzledly, the magical arrow plunged into Raul's back and quickly annihilated.
Rohr took a deep breath, his slender body suddenly swelled up as if it had been filled with water, and in the blink of an eye, his entire body became quite thick.
"My body can absorb magical energy!" Rohr said, "and I can harness the absorbed energy!"
The longsword in Rohr's hand had not been anything special in appearance and color before, but now it emitted a clear white light, as if Perran's magic arrow had been combined with it.
"Die!" Rohr let out a loud cry, jumped up at an incredible speed far beyond his previous one, and slashed a fatal head-on blow from a high position. The two sides wrestled twice just now, allowing him to clearly estimate the vampire's arm strength. As long as the vampire resists head-on, he is 100% sure that he will break the opponent's defenses, and he can slash them with just an additional sword.
Even a vampire will die if his head is cut off and his heart is pierced. This is a solid lesson learned from the Battle of Kalean.
The two swords intersected, but Rohr's inevitable fatal blow was blocked and collapsed. Ashruphat swung his sword back with unmatched force, and the longsword made a deadly arc at a dizzying speed.
Before he had time to think more, Rohr swung his sword to block, but this terrifying blow was a false move. Rohr's sword was unloaded into the air with all his might, and before he could retract it to protect himself, the vampire's random sword pierced his chest.
"Hey...... It's cheating......" Rohr spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at the sword that had passed through his chest in disbelief. He let out a self-deprecating gasp and fell.
"After all, it's just a monkey show. Ashrufat drew his sword from Roll's body and uttered the last sentence that Rolle had ever heard in this world.
"I wasn't at all my strength just now. He added, though, this time Rohr couldn't hear it.
Ashrufat looked around, only to find that Perrin was gone.
It's unclear exactly when he left, but from the beginning, Perrin didn't leave the confines of the bushes and enter the flatland. This place is really the perfect terrain for hiding, and even the supernatural sight and hearing of Ashrufat can't find any trace of Perran.
He could only chase in the general direction, but after a short run and still found nothing.
"Carrie, can you sense where he's going?" Ashruphat asked in his mind.
"I can't feel it. Carrie replied. "He must have run out of my senses. ”
"Cut, count him lucky. Ashrufat gave up the pursuit, turned back to the place where he had fought, and picked up Rohr's longsword from the pool of blood. The fact that this sword and his withered sword had been fighting each other with all their might without any damage meant that this weapon was definitely unusual.
"It's a great weapon. Carrie explained. "High polymeric materials...... Charging System ...... This sword was not something that could be made by the craftsmanship level of this worldly realm, it must have been brought by the gods of the stars from other worldly realms, or at least it was their product. This sword is in a sense identical to your withered sword, except that it doesn't have a counterfield system. I suggest you put it away. ”
Ashrufat agreed. His withered sword was too conspicuous. Although the Sword of Withered is an excellent weapon, this sword with its appearance of being entwined with energy is too extravagant for a traveler and can easily cause unnecessary trouble. Therefore, during his past journeys, he always carried an ordinary iron sword to use at will, and only summoned the withered sword in times of crisis. This plain-looking magic sword is much better than ordinary weapons.
By the time Ashrufat searched for the body, Perrin had already run a considerable distance.
In fact, half of the reason he was running so fast was because he had already scouted the terrain on the hillside beforehand, and his cautious nature allowed him to consider the way to retreat while tracking. After all, in the beginning, the target he was tracking was the greenskinned boss who was acting alone, and a group of greenskins could pop up around here at any time. Someone with a little vision will be ready to retreat.
As soon as he saw the defeat of Rohr, Perrin immediately retreated along his predetermined route. His route was clever and fast, not following the same path back down the slope, but down a steep slope straight to the bottom of the mountain. So the pursuit of Ashrufat was fruitless.
At this moment, he hurried to the way he came. Run as fast as all those who run for their lives. What he had witnessed tonight, combined with the letter he had accidentally seized on the road, had finally made him understand the forces behind the whole incident of the Greenskins' invasion. After tonight's battle, he knew that he was powerless to change anything on his own, but this crucial piece of information had to be sent to Oren City immediately, and it could not be known to any third party.
In particular, it must not be known to the Shem, otherwise, I am afraid that the consequences will be out of control.
Two days later, Perrin returned to the camp at Shim.
In order to avoid being discovered, he did not dare to act during the day, because if anyone noticed him, he would definitely ask about the results of the operation. He appeared in the middle of the night, passed the sentry as a human, and crept to his original camp. All but him and the Holy Knights had fallen, but there were still a few of his servants, a few horses, and a few other belongings.
"Your Excellency!" he walked into his room (Perrin had been placed in a room in the castle), and the servant on duty widened his eyes. "You're ......"
Perrin smiled wryly. He knew that the appearance of Lu Dao at the moment was really bad, because it took him too much physical strength and energy to travel day and night, avoiding those green-skinned squads running around, and naturally he didn't have the demeanor of normal times.
"I failed. He said simply. "Pack up our things and we'll go at once. ”
"Go now?" the servant didn't come to his senses for a moment. "Even if you fail, you should notify them......"
"No, something terrible happened. Perrin replied. "I must return to Oren at once and report the situation to Karl, and he will decide. ”
The servant was puzzled, but he could not disobey his master's commands. Soon, under the cover of night, everything was cleaned up. It must be noted that since the enemy in this battle is greenskinned, the Shem army does not need to worry about internal rebellions and other things, and the entire army is tight on the outside and loose on the inside, and the internal management is not strict. Perrin left the castle with the horse without much trouble. Immediately after a little distance, he drove his horses without mercy and galloped towards the city of Oren.
"My lord, what the hell is going on?" At this moment, even the servant realized that something big had happened, and it was definitely not as simple as sniping the Greenskin Boss (to be honest, this kind of mission failure is also normal). "What about the other knights?"
"They're all dead. Perrin replied simply.
"Where's Lord Rohr?" the servant asked, reluctantly. It may be possible for the others to die, but even if the other one is surrounded by green skins, he should be able to escape.
"Dead too. Perrin replied. He didn't know how many Holy Knights were left who had received the power of the gods after suffering such a serious loss, but there were obviously not many left. Prior to the Battle of Callean, knights with divine powers were once quite common, numbering in the thousands. But now, more than a dozen deaths can make the Holy Knights feel pain to the marrow.
Although the will of God is unpredictable, even a pious person will unconsciously think of a thought: Is it because after the vampire perishes, there is no need for the Holy Knight to exist?
The group of holy knights disappeared from the army of Shem, never to be seen again. Although the Shem people waited long enough, in the end, what they were waiting for was not the good news of sniping the Greenskinned Boss, but the onslaught of the Greenskinned army.
