In Magda's vision, Wellington and Sodelor had already taken the opportunity to hide in a nearby house. Obviously, they knew that they could not fight against such a powerful ranger with their swords, so they wisely chose to hide.
"Ah … You overestimate yourself."
Although he said that, the situation in front of him made Magda a little angry. He had shot so many arrows, but he could not even kill a single important target. This situation had not happened for decades …
After thinking for a while, Magda's slender figure immediately ran into the distance. After activating the "Haste" skill, his speed was even faster than a berserker's "Barbaric Charge". When he reached the edge of the roof, he used the "Leap" skill just in time to send his body flying far away like an arrow. After drawing a parabola in the air, he landed lightly on another street more than ten meters away. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone's sight.
From the moment Magda appeared to the moment he disappeared, it was not even 30 seconds. Until now, most of the temple guards did not even know where the enemy was. The dense formation caused the soldiers to be squeezed together, so the people at the back could only see densely packed metal armors and spears. Only the soldiers on the second floor knew where the enemy was because of Roddy's movements. But by the time they nocked their arrows, Magda had already disappeared …
In the eyes of ordinary people, the battle seemed to be over. Other than the two that escaped, the rest of the undead were all killed. No matter how they looked at it, they could not cause any more trouble …
But looking at the disappearing Magda and the assassin Derby, Roddy's heart could not relax at all!
"Raise your shields! Get into formation! Protect the bishop and the governor! "
His shouts could finally be heard because of the brief silence of the soldiers. The soldiers of the Temple were stunned for a moment before they immediately surrounded the Superintendent. Rody rushed over and bent down to the old man who had fallen to the ground and had yet to get up. He shouted, "Do not stand up! Even if you have to squat, do not stand up! "
He pulled a shield from the soldier beside him and directly handed it to Rubens. With an unquestionable tone, he said, "Take this! This time, we've met a tough one … That guy won't leave, he'll definitely come back soon — pay attention to the assassin who disappeared, his target is either you or Benjamin! "
After saying this, Roddy raised his head and shouted at Benjamin who was once again protected by the soldiers, "Get back into the house! At least three layers of defense, especially above our heads! "
As he spoke, the short bow in his hand was already nocked to the bowstring, and he ran towards the short wall at the side …
With a scepter in one hand and a shield in the other, Rubens was a little stunned. He never thought that he would be ordered by such a junior. However, the resistance in his heart immediately disappeared after the experience just now.
If Roddy hadn't pushed him down in time, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand that arrow.
Thinking about the "Holy Shield" that was not much stronger than glass after being hit by the arrow, Rubens finally realized how strong the "tough one" that Roddy mentioned was. Even if Knight Titus slashed at it with his sword, this shield should not have been broken so easily!
The old Rubens was not a stubborn old man who cared about his pride. The fact that he could put down his pride and apologize to Roddy back then showed that he understood the importance of this matter. So, he weighed the heavy shield in his hand, without saying a word, he put his arm into the shield and raised it in front of his body with great effort. After that, he squatted down and gave orders to the soldiers beside him. With a wave of the scepter in his hand, he did not forget to replenish the "Holy Shield" around them.
On the other side, Bnehamin had also retreated to the interior of the house. He found a blind spot and crouched down in three layers of defense. The frozen corpses on the ground were extremely intimidating, so the temple guards were extremely tense. They raised their shields up high and looked around cautiously, afraid that another arrow would appear out of nowhere.
The soldiers on the street were ordered to gather in formation. The archers on the second floor immediately began to fight for the high ground on the roof. Everything was carried out according to Roddy's previous plan. Although it was a little chaotic at first, because of the thorough instilling of orders, order was quickly restored. The alertness and defense of the troops were restored to the highest level.
Roddy raised his hand and took out the Whistling Arrow and shot it directly into the sky. This arrow indicated that the encirclement had failed, and it also meant that the nearest clock tower had to immediately ring the alarm, telling the Dukes Of Angmar to leave the city!
If the enemy was someone else, Roddy would not have directly ordered the Angmar to retreat. But when he thought about the Blighters, he knew that this operation would most likely not succeed.
In his memory, Magda's strength in 597 was a "Ranger" level 59. For a race with a long lifespan like the undead, their strength would not change much over the years. Sodelor was currently a scout who had not advanced yet, but he would be able to break through to level 60 in the future. This was something that only humans with great potential could do, but Magda was not like that.
So Roddy was very clear that the current Magda was definitely not someone they could fight against!
Although Rubens, Benjamin, Titus and Wellington were all around level 10 to 20 in their advanced professions, if it was only 4 against 1, they might have a chance. But reality was cruel. They were either Knights who could only fight in close combat, or Priests who had weak defense and no attack power.
In terms of class characteristics, unless Magda was willing to jump down and fight with the two Knights, no matter how many people they had, they would not be able to do anything to Magda, a Level 40 "Ranger"!
So what if there were a few hundred Temple Guards surrounding this place? A truly powerful high-grade Ranger could come and go without a trace in a city full of buildings, regardless of the terrain, even if they were not in the forest!
This was only the disadvantage of Roddy's side. The most important thing was that Roddy knew that the "Blighter" Magda was famous for being vengeful. If he was in her shoes, he would not have any thoughts of retreating after encountering such an ambush. He would have immediately started thinking about how to kill those who had schemed against him!
It was like a flock of sheep plotting to kill a wolf, but in the end, the wolf accidentally jumped out of the trap. The wolf was not afraid of the sheep. The only thing it could think of was how to make the sheep pay a painful price.
The sound of footsteps could be heard, and the distant bell had already rung. Roddy hid behind a low wall, knowing that the Dukes Of Angmar and Sally were about to leave this city. Although the Lucifron Family would not be in any danger, Roddy's heart was filled with a strong sense of unwillingness!
"Damn it, what the hell is this!"
His mood was terrible. Although his arrow had disrupted Magda's attack and saved Wellington and Sodelor's lives, he did not feel any sense of pride at all.
Dodging Magda's arrow did not sound difficult, but only Roddy himself knew that it was not because of his strong body or fast reflexes, but because he gambled with his life to "predict" the arrow!
With Magda's current strength, it was impossible for Roddy to predict the trajectory of the arrow. Therefore, after shooting the arrow, Roddy immediately dodged it. This was because he had studied Magda's battle videos and knew her fighting habits. Therefore, this dodging allowed him to silently pass by the Grim Reaper.
If he had gambled wrongly, even if he was touched by the arrow, he would be killed instantly!
A strong enemy, a terrible battle situation, injured allies, helpless waiting …
Time passed, but it did not mean that the danger was gone. Roddy felt cold sweat seeping out of his forehead. His brain was spinning quickly. Although there were countless "backups" and backup plans, Roddy could not think of any one that was more suitable for the current situation.
What should he do, what should he do …
Ever since he transmigrated to this world, [Blightcaller] Magda was probably the strongest enemy he had ever met. She was even his idol. Because Roddy had always seen her as an insurmountable mountain, even if he threw out the factor of level, he would not have the thought of "I can definitely win"!
"Damn it!"
Although he knew that this kind of thinking would completely destroy his morale, but after years of training, how could it be abandoned in a few seconds?
"Assassin, Ranger … Freeze, Control …"
It was not that there was no way to deal with such an enemy. Roddy could think of 30 strategies in a second. But in this situation, Roddy realized that it was not realistic to rely on others. No one could understand his strategy and execute it perfectly in a few minutes. He had to do it himself, but with his strength …
Strength …
A light suddenly flashed in his mind. He suddenly reached for his chest, and the scroll [Moloch's Blessing] was lying firmly in his bosom.
"Damn it, that's the only way!"
As his thoughts raced, he rolled to the side and arrived beside Rubens, who was surrounded by the shield formation. He gestured at him and said in a low voice, "Superintendent, do you still remember the most powerful replenishment plan I mentioned?"
Rubens almost immediately understood Roddy's idea. Back in the living room, he and Angmar listened to Roddy talking about more than six or seven ways to deal with different enemies. Among them, there was a "most powerful" plan that even the two old men felt incredulous. But considering the unknown of the enemy, they finally agreed to let Roddy prepare …
So now that Rubens thought of that plan, a glimmer of hope welled up in his heart. Perhaps to solve the crisis now, only that level of attack would be effective. But when he thought of the plan that sounded like a fantasy at the beginning, he became uncertain. The enemy is not a fool. Who can lure them there?
"I'll do it. But in order to succeed, there must be a prerequisite …"
What Roddy said next made Rubens' eyes widen. He clenched the scepter in his hand and looked at the golden scepter full of runes. Finally, he nodded and said, "At this point, I have no other way. Even if I have to destroy this scepter, I will help you!"
"How many chances do we have?"
Rubens silently pointed at his own scepter and stretched out a finger. Roddy nodded and said, "Enough." Then, he looked at the west wall that was only a few dozen meters away, and then looked at the bell tower on the other side of the wall that had just rung the bell. He continued to give a few instructions in a low voice, and then quickly ran to the side of the shield formation of the temple guards.
Here, he saw Wellington and Sodelor who were already recovering from their injuries under the treatment of the priest. After confirming that there was no one around, he also gave a few instructions in a low voice, and then made a few gestures to Titus who had also recovered his combat strength in the opposite house. The two knights simultaneously picked up their shields and nodded at Roddy.
The temple guards on the street did not understand what this scout with a short bow wanted to do. They only saw him running back and forth a few times before he hid behind a low wall and stopped moving. Meanwhile, the governor, Lord Benjamin, and the two powerful knights actually stopped moving. The atmosphere of the entire battlefield suddenly became as tense as a bowstring.
Although there was no order to tell them what was going to happen, under such circumstances, the soldiers could all understand one fact —
