Section 35 Duel

Little by little, memories of the past emerge. Indeed, this man dressed as a green-skinned man was Ashrufat, the shameless mercenary who had once been the captain of the garrison in Delos. Perrin still has a considerable impression of what happened back then, because it was the successful shooting of the two dark witches that made him promoted to deputy head of the regiment. He remembered that Ashrufat had betrayed his faith for a horse...... Perrin once thought he would never meet this scumbag again.

But it seems that something was misestimated by me at the beginning. Meeting at this time, in this place, in this way, was completely beyond Perran's expectations. This person actually used magic to disguise himself as a greenskin?

Several of Perran's subordinates looked at him, the deputy commander actually knew this man disguised as a greenskin, but they immediately saw that the two men did not have much friendship, because after the initial surprise passed, Perrin directly ordered an attack: "Kill him!"

But this time, things seem to be different in some way. The knight with the short sword threw his flying sword again, trying to pin down his companions before they could close them, but Ashrufat only struck two flying swords in an instant, and then rushed to his side with supernatural speed. Before the knight could defend himself, he stabbed his sword through the other's chest.

A knight had a sword of light in his hand, but before his arm could swing, his head was shattered by a slash. Then their enemies burst into their midst, spilling a shower of blood and death with that terrible sword.

It was an indescribable, soul-chilling slaughter. One after another, the holy knights who received the power of the gods fell under their swords, slashed, cut off, and pierced. If they had been vigilant enough at the beginning, careful and cooperating with each other, the situation would have been much better than it is now. However, when they walked out of their hiding places, they were full of confidence in victory, lacked sufficient psychological preparation, and did not form any battle formation. They were just surrounded on all sides, but they didn't even cooperate well with the position of the encirclement, they staggered back and forth, and were easily broken by the other party one by one.

Perrin held a bow and arrow, but could not shoot. Ashrufat and the Holy Knights were entangled, figures intertwined, separated, and fell. In this chaotic situation, even Perran's magic arrow would easily injure his own people by mistake. He could only watch the tide of the battle change. The knight with the hot hammer had just heated his arm off when his arm was cut off, and as he fell to the ground with a scream, a slash to his head silenced his voice in the air. Eshurufat's movements are completely beyond the limits of human beings, that kind of athleticism, that incredible speed, even the knights are killed before they are ready for battle.

A holy knight stabbed Aeruphat with a short spear in his hand, but failed to pierce his armor. Ashruphat immediately responded with a deadly counterattack. It was also the only time he was hit in the entire process.

Now, the eleven holy knights had all fallen at his feet, the sword in his hand was stained with blood and flesh, and with the bloodthirsty passion and the high mood of the battle, Ashrufat revealed his true face. Powerful dark magic energy had swirled around his armor, and his fangs had appeared beyond his lips.

"Vampire!" Perrin let go of the bowstring, but the magic arrow was shattered by the opponent's sword, and it was completely useless.

"It's actually a vampire...... "Perran's mind suddenly remembered a previous record. As a Holy Knight, he had seen the record, but had not taken it to heartโ€”but upon seeing the true form of the Vampire of Eshurufat, a seemingly forgotten memory came back to his mind.

Ashrufat...... No wonder the name seems a bit impressive...... The High Nobleman of Callean, the Queen's Consort, and the Scarlet Duke Eshurufat!The only vampire to survive the Battle of Callean!

Although this event has been documented, few church leaders have paid much attention to it. Vampires are very powerful, but there is only one vampire in the world. The entire Kalean, thousands of vampires, was finally annihilated, what could this last vampire do?

Moreover, if the vampire hides in some deep mountain, in the desert, or something like that (or even in a human city, if he is cautious and cunning), then searching for this vampire is not realistic.

Perrin fires an arrow again, but is also crushed by the vampire. And Ashrufat didn't even pause for a moment, and continued to approach him.

Another magic arrow was fired. Perran's magic arrows are not affected by the wind, and with his archery skills, he deserves the title of "magic arrow". The inexhaustible arrows, the arrows that must be hit every time, are meaningless in front of this vampire at the moment. Perrin had long known that the Vampire Clan possessed excellent senses, superior dynamic vision, and physical and athletic abilities far beyond normal humans, as well as strong vitality and regenerative abilities. His bow and arrows pose little threat to vampires, especially one-on-one situations.

I knew that Lu Dao was going to deal with a vampire, especially an unusually powerful high-level vampire, he would not let his subordinates attack so rashly, even if he had to fight, he had to arrange a good battle strategy.

"Rohr!" Perrin shouted as the bowstring fluttered and another magic arrow spawned on the bow.

A dark shadow swept in the wind, and Ashruphat leaped backwards, dodging the fatal blow to his neck. He settled down, only to find out that there was a third person between him and Perran.

It was a tall, thin man in green leather armor. However, although this person's body shape appears thin, it does not give people the slightest feeling of "weakness" or "harmlessness", on the contrary, he gives people the intuition at first glance that it is dangerous, like a thin and thin knife that has been sharpened to an extremely sharp point.

That kind of momentum and demeanor made him realize that this holy knight was not at the same level as those guys just now. After all his companions were killed in battle, this holy knight could still appear with such a calm and confident expression, it must have great confidence in his own strength.

"Oh yes, he's a piece of crap, but he's my boss after all. If he dies, it will give me a nerve-wracking experience. โ€

Rohr stood there, casually speaking to Ashrufat. Only Ashruphat noticed that the other's eyes narrowed, like a tiger peeking at its prey.

In Rohr's hand, he held the sword that he had never unsheathed. It was a standard one-handed longsword, slightly shorter and thinner than the greatsword in Eshurufat's hand. This kind of long sword is a common weapon in the whole world, and it is very suitable for dealing with lightly armored or unarmored enemies, but this weapon is not suitable for splitting heavy armor, so it is not good for dealing with heavy armor enemies.

Ashruphat looked at the sword carefully, and he could feel the magic energy on the sword.

Rohr shook the sword in his hand.

"Hey, don't look at me like that. I'm not a fool. I can't help it, because those guys have this for me!" Rohr looked at the sword in his hand, and then at the vampire on the other side. "But fortunately, this problem is not too big, no matter how the armor, isn't there a lot of gaps?"

As he spoke, he squinted at the armor on Eshurufat.

"To be honest, today really fulfilled a long-cherished wish of mine, I've always wanted to see the power of vampires. โ€

"You look...... It's a little different. Ashrufat whispered.

"No, of course! Don't compare me to the shit. As he spoke, Rohr moved to the side to give way to Perran's shot, but it prevented Eshurufat from rushing directly to attack Perran. "At that level, a guy can be regarded as having the power of a god? It's just a monkey show. If I become archbishop, the first thing I will do is send them to the circus, and they will surely be the best circus performers...... Ah, it's useless to say this now, they're all dead. โ€

The two sides confronted each other, and for a moment no one took the initiative to attack. Perrin stood in a safe position, holding his bow and arrows, and was ready to go. When the vampire's attention is focused on him, his bow and arrow are really not too threatening, but in this case, he can hit the opponent's back at any time.

"Come, let's dance together!" Rohr rushed up with these words.

Ashrufat cautiously took every attack from Rolle. It was true that Rohr's speed was much faster than those dead holy knights, but this level alone would not have made this man so confident.

"Not bad, look at this!"

Suddenly, Rohr raised his sword and slashed, and Ashrufaat's horizontal sword blocked the blow. In the few hand-to-hand encounters just now, the power of Rohr's sword swing was already quite large, but this time the power from the sword was unusually large, and it was not lost to that Wendini's full force. Moreover, the strength of Rohr's sword was also strong enough to match the withering sword, and he was safe and sound under the weight of the huge strength of both sides.

He took advantage of the gap to fight back, forcing Rohr to jump backwards. But Rohr jumped back twenty paces away, leaving him stunned for a moment, and for a moment lost the opportunity to pursue.

"Come again!" Rohr rushed up a second time. This time he saw clearly that the guy jumped in front of him in just one step. This kind of physical strength, explosiveness, and speed are not lost to vampires.

Ashrufat flicked his sword head-on to block his opponent's rapid approach, but Rohr's tactics were beyond his imagination. Rohr threw the sword in his hand at him. The moment Eshurufat struck the sword flying, he rushed up and grabbed Eshurufat's wrist.

"Okay, let's compare our strength!" The four arms twisted tightly together, and they were evenly matched for a while. But Ashrufat felt that he had the upper hand in arm strength. As he tried to overwhelm his opponent with all his might, Rohr suddenly slammed his headbutt into his nose.

Receiving this unexpected attack, Ashrufat staggered back two steps.

"It seems that you also know how to fight, but you don't know how to fight. Like those wastes, they cling to the weapons in their hands, forgetting that their bodies are a weapon in themselves. โ€

Perrin fired an arrow, but Ashrufat didn't give up on his vigilance, swinging his sword and shattering the magic arrow.

By the time Ashrufat had gained footing, Rolle had already retrieved his sword. This time it was Ashrufat's turn to charge.

Rohr bent his knees to the side, rolled over and dodged, the slash of the withered sword brushing past him. At the moment when Ashrufat retracted his sword, Rolle threw his palm back at his face, and Ashrufat held the sword with both hands, so he couldn't defend back, so he could only turn his head sideways to avoid the blow.

But the Holy Knight struck with great speed, throwing his sword in his hand once more, and then grabbing Aerufat's wrist through the gap. But this time, Ashrufat pulled his arm between the two sides, so that the head mallet could no longer be used.

The wrestling was short and intense. As the two sides fought for control of the Withered Sword, Ashrufat tried to press his sword against Rohr's neck, but Raul resisted with all his might.
