Chapter 13 Ambush
"Then, let's meet at Kaiyuan City Gate."
After Enzo said that, he took a deep look at Pariste, then decisively turned around and ran wildly towards the depths of the forest.
"Everyone, retreat separately!"
Pariste took a deep breath and signaled the retreat to the surviving cavalry around him. After the two cavalry dragged the unconscious Tru away, he gritted his teeth and raised his arm, which had lost strength, and shot a few arrows at the Snow Tooth beast. He also turned around and ran deep into the forest.
In the blink of an eye, everyone fled.
The giant snow-toothed beast looked up to the sky and roared. When it saw the cavalry running away in all directions, it shook its head and didn't know which way to pursue it. After a brief hesitation, it roared angrily, stepped out with its huge feet, and ran wildly in one direction. .
In the forest, Enzo ran wildly.
"The Snow Tooth Giant Beast has a huge body and doesn't run very fast in the forest."
"With the Paris Interruption and my knight-level speed, I should be able to get out of its hunting range very quickly. As long as I keep walking in this direction, leave the Ice Punishment Forest and circle around the Lighthouse Town, I can return to Kaiyuan City."
The trees on both sides continued to recede, and Enzo kept walking, moving vigorously through the forest.
"Originally I was hunting the Snow Bear, but I ended up encountering the Snow Fang Giant Beast!"
"The error in intelligence almost led to danger. It seems that we need to be more careful next time."
While running, Enzo was always paying attention to the movements around him.
"call out!"
Suddenly there was a scream in the forest.
Enzo's hair stood on end, and he felt a strong palpitation in his heart. Amidst the urgent alarm sound of the chip in his mind, without thinking, he threw himself forward with all his strength, then rolled violently and hid behind a tree trunk.
"Hey, you escaped?" A somewhat surprised voice sounded in the forest not far away.
A drop of cold sweat broke out on Enzo's forehead. In his previous position, there was a dark arrow pierced deeply into the ground, and its feathers were still trembling slightly.
Between the trees, two figures walked over.
The middle-aged man among them was dressed as a knight, with a well-proportioned physique and a serious expression. Another young man was wearing a gray robe and holding a long bow in his hand. With a trace of regret in his eyes, he looked at Enzo with a chuckle.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, rumors say that the young master of Kaiyuan City is ignorant and incompetent, and is a loser who only hides under O'Quin's protection."
"But when I saw him today, he didn't seem so unbearable. He was able to dodge my arrows!"
"Who are you?" Enzo stood up slowly and looked at the two people opposite him calmly.
He recalled his memories and thought about the identities of the two people, and suddenly noticed that the silver armor worn by the middle-aged knight opposite had the mark of two crossed sickles, and a name suddenly flashed in his mind.
"Crossed Sickle! Are you from Iron Horn City?" Enzo frowned slightly and held the short blade at his waist with his palm.
"Congratulations, you got the answer right." The young man in gray robe raised the corners of his lips and chuckled, "It's a pity that there is no reward."
"Did you drive the giant snow-toothed beast in the Ice Punishment Forest here?" Enzo's thoughts changed and he vaguely understood something.
"Of course, if it weren't for us, how could the Snow Tooth Giant Beast living in the far north of the ice field appear in such a place?" The gray-robed young man said with a sarcastic face, "The original plan was to use the Snow Tooth Giant Beast to attack I killed several knights of Kaiyuan City, but I didn’t expect that I even lured out the young master of Kaiyuan City.”
"What an unexpected surprise!"
"Aren't you afraid of triggering a war between Iron Horn City and Kaiyuan City by doing this?" Enzo said in a deep voice.
He felt uneasy in his heart, and his muscles were tense. He stared at the young man in gray robe and the middle-aged knight opposite him. His hand had already grasped the short blade at his waist, and the fighting spirit in his body was ready to go out, and he could enter the fighting state in the next second.
"War! Oh, just based on the current Kaiyuan City?"
The young man in gray robe showed disdain and sneered.
"Who doesn't know that during the war between Kaiyuan City and Giant Wolf City, O'Quinn was seriously injured and has not shown up for a month. It is unknown whether he is alive now! And without his protection, do you think the current Night Fury family , are you still qualified to be the master of Kaiyuan City?"
Enzo was slightly shocked, but his face remained calm.
"That's enough, Alger." The middle-aged knight suddenly spoke and said in a deep voice, "Don't waste any more time. After we deal with him, we have to go support Lord Angel!"
"Angel?" Enzo's heart skipped a beat. He was no stranger to this name.
One of the three leaders of Iron Horn City, in the cold winter before his death, Angel Iron Scythe broke through the realm of knights and became the latest great knight of the Cold Plains.
"Yes, it's time to deal with you." The gray-robed young man Alger sneered, raised his long bow and pointed it at Enzo, saying, "Before dark, the troops from Iron Horn City will attack Kaiyuan City and sacrifice your head. Give it to Lord Angel, he will definitely be satisfied.”
call out! Long arrows shot out.
Enzo instantly pulled out the short blade, released the fighting spirit in his body, and dodged nimbly. As he missed the long arrow, he exerted force on his feet, rushed forward at an extremely fast speed, and slashed at Alger with a sharp blade.
Sonorous! Swords clashed.
The middle-aged knight held the long sword with both hands and blocked Enzo's attack. Gray-yellow earth fighting energy surged from his body with a heavy momentum. He blocked Enzo's short blade with a little effort.
"Alger, be careful, this guy is also a knight." The middle-aged knight looked seriously and stared at Enzo.
"In this case, the frontal battle will be left to you, Barlow!"
Alger put away the lazy smile on his face, kept retreating, distanced himself, and then nimbly jumped onto a tree trunk. He bent his bow and nocked an arrow smoothly, and aimed the target in Enzo's direction.
"One for melee and one for long range?"
"It's a little tricky."
"Chip, analyze their movement trajectories, and calculate the best way to fight!" Enzo concentrated on it, staring intently at the middle-aged knight opposite.
In his mind, the chip was running rapidly, scanning everything around him. The moment Alger aimed at the target and shot the black arrow, Enzo had already reacted and dodged the attack with a flick of his shoulder.
