Chapter 141: 140. Narrow victory
Chapter 141 140. Narrow Victory
The endless hills are covered with knee-high golden clover. This gentle **** is relatively flat. There are many soldiers who fled from the expeditionary army scattered in the wilderness. Some evil spirits chased them along the way. It just became one of the important targets of the evil spirits, so a total of four evil spirits chased it all the way, and finally intercepted the magic caravan on the gentle **** of this hilly land.
The fast-moving magic caravan overturned on the sloping ground. The coachman and several guards inside the magic caravan were immediately killed by the evil spirits. The remaining female swordsmen were forced to fight. There were already more than a dozen of them. The female swordsman fell in a pool of blood, and the round-faced girl Beatrice, who had been fighting side by side with Miss Hathaway, was seriously injured.
It was under such circumstances that He Boqiang joined the battle. After He Boqiang and Miss Hathaway worked together to kill one evil spirit and cut off the calf of another evil spirit, the battle situation here was considered to be smooth. It turned around, but the fleeing soldiers around didn't notice the situation here, thinking that as long as they were entangled by evil spirits, they would only end up with a 'death', and they continued to move forward on the road of escape.
He Boqiang was worried that the battle here would drag on for a long time, and other evil spirits would rush over to support him, so he thought of a quick victory.
It's just that among these female swordsmen, there are some real skills. Except for Miss Hathaway, there is only one female swordsman with a red ponytail. They are all outstanding among this group of female swordsmen, and they should join forces to fight the enemy to have a better chance of winning, but the two of them did not have any intersection during the battle, and they did not even have normal communication during the battle.
The red-haired female swordsman had at least a few companions by her side. These female swordsmen cooperated with each other to deal with the enemy, and they seemed to have a tacit understanding.
As for Miss Hathaway, there was only one person left. Except for Beatrice who was seriously injured, her small group of female swordsmen did not find the other female swordsmen on the battlefield. In the past to rescue the noble knight, Hathaway quickly entangled the evil spirit who had injured a calf.
Those female swordsmen dealt with an evil spirit independently, and were forced into a panic by the evil spirit. Seeing that He Boqiang chopped down two evil spirits in a row, they looked at him frequently, hoping that he could help them, but He Boqiang I feel that the situation of this noble knight is even more critical.
The noble knight's left leg was covered with a hemostatic bandage, and he sat on the grass and couldn't move for a while. He looked seriously injured. Although the evil spirit had a rapier stuck in his body, he didn't intend to let the noble knight go.
The evil spirit untied the serrated axe from his waist, and beheaded the noble knight.
He Boqiang rushed to the noble knight, and before the evil ghost's giant ax fell, he used the iris shield to block the evil ghost's cleave for the noble knight.
The noble knight narrowly escaped death, his face covered with sweat, seeing He Boqiang standing up to save him, he didn't say much, taking advantage of the moment when the evil spirit paused, he pulled out a long dagger from his waist, and dragged the The injured leg stabbed the dagger into the right ankle of the evil ghost, and the evil ghost screamed, but did not let the noble knight go, and kicked the noble knight a few meters away.
He Boqiang could even clearly feel the sound of the noble knight's forearm breaking.
But at this time, what he didn't expect was that the craftsman sneaked around behind the evil spirit, pointed the Paglio spear in his hand at the evil spirit's **** and inserted it in. Liou's spear couldn't pierce the strong skin on the evil spirit's body, so he looked for the place where the evil spirit's defense was weakest.
At this moment, He Boqiang saw the expression on the face of the evil ghost is also very exciting, there are all kinds of ferocious wailing and pain...
The evil spirit turned around and stared at the craftsman with the most vicious eyes, holding the handle of Paglio's spear behind him with one hand, and wielding a huge ax with the other, trying to chop off the craftsman's head, but He ignored He Boqiang standing in front of him.
The remade Roman sword burst out with a faint golden light, and while he was distracted, a sword pierced the evil spirit's left rib into the heart.
A layer of black fire ignited on the evil ghost. It roared and wanted to chop the noble knight first, and then deal with He Boqiang, but it did not expect that a shield attack from He Boqiang jumped up and hit it firmly on the jaw. The silver rune that emerged from the shield instantly extinguished the black flame on the evil spirit's body.
Almost without any pause, He Boqiang reached out and grabbed the short horn on the top of the evil spirit's head, and cut off its head with a Roman sword.
At this time, no one noticed that He Boqiang's hand was almost unable to grasp the remade Roman sword. .
The aristocratic knight looked at He Boqiang in astonishment, as if he was surprised by his excellent hand extension. He wanted to say "thank you" to He Boqiang, but before he could speak, He Boqiang went straight to Miss Hathaway's side.
At this time, the craftsman took the opportunity to pull out the Paglio spear stuck in the backyard of the evil spirit, shook his head at the noble knight with great pride, and followed behind He Boqiang, intending to take advantage of the victory to kill another evil spirit.
At this time, the noble knight also crawled to the side of the evil spirit, pulled out the long dagger stuck in its ankle, gritted his teeth and got up from the ground. His leg was seriously injured, and he limped very hard when he walked, but he Still following behind the craftsman, it seemed that he wanted to help kill the evil spirits in front of him.
Miss Hathaway's long blond hair was cut off by the evil spirit, and the rest of her hair fell loose. Her green eyes were full of anger, and the knight's long sword in her hand could not stop the attack of the evil spirit. She looked a little embarrassed at the moment, and there was a light bloodstain on the collarbone of her shoulder.
He Boqiang, craftsmen, and noble knights ran over one after another before helping Miss Hathaway out of the siege.
Seeing He Boqiang approaching, the evil spirit dragged its broken leg and wanted to retreat hastily, but at this moment its calf bone was completely broken, and it still had a certain advantage in fighting Miss Hathaway, but it was difficult to escape from this battlefield. There was no possibility, Miss Hathaway was still fighting to the side, making it impossible for the evil spirit to escape easily.
He Boqiang caught up, the blessing effect of the iris shield in his hand almost completely disappeared, and almost all the strength in his body was exhausted. Facing this lame evil spirit, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and rush forward.
The evil ghost saw that the two evil ghosts beside him were decapitated, and just hit dozens of times in a row, in exchange for being cut off by an imperial soldier, Hathaway was blocked by the sawtooth ax in his hand. With a stabbing sword, He Boqiang limped towards the other evil spirit. Of course, He Boqiang would not let the two evil spirits have a chance to join forces, and stopped the evil spirit with the iris shield.
With the help of Miss Hathaway, noble knights and craftsmen, everyone worked together to chop down the third evil ghost.
The evil ghost in front of the red-haired ponytail female swordsman also found that the situation on the field was not right. Seeing that several imperial warriors had taken advantage of the field at the moment, he resolutely gave up chasing and killing those female swordsmen and strode away. Run in the direction of the forest camp.
Until the evil spirit ran away, He Boqiang's legs went limp, and he lay on his back on the grass, gasping for breath...
