When Roddy killed Blake, Natha, the wood elf, was investigating the whole town. She did not notice the ongoing battle at all.
Walking on the roof and eaves, Natha was full of curiosity.
As a wood elf who had never been to the "human world", Paar Town was a huge shock to Natha. The smelly stables, the tinkling blacksmiths, the vendors packing up their stalls and preparing to close, the bustling taverns … Everything was something that Natha had never seen before.
Natha felt very uncomfortable at the beginning. She was like a fish out of water. Even though everything here looked much more advanced than in Ayesha Village, she still felt empty in her heart.
The more she walked in the town, the more she felt that she did not fit in.
However, Natha never thought about giving up. The stubbornness in her heart suppressed some of the distracting thoughts. What she was thinking about was the "consideration" of this town.
She wanted to know if these humans were trustworthy.
For Natha, this question could be understood as: Were humans really stronger than wood elves?
In the forest where the weak were prey to the strong, the wood elves' ideology was still relatively primitive. To put it simply, they had an instinctive respect for the "strong".
But it was also because of this that Natha always had doubts about the abilities of humans. Even though Roddy was strong, she knew that one person did not represent the whole. What Natha cared more about was the strength of the "human army" in this town.
Only when she saw the strength of humans could Natha stop worrying about the future of Ayesha Village. So, with this mentality, her "first goal" in exploring around Paar Town was to observe the humans who could fight. Whether it was scouts, cavalrymen or town patrols, they were all her targets.
However, what she did not know was that all the scouts had entered a state of "Level One Combat Readiness" and were all hiding near the armory. The only "troops" standing outside the town were the original guards of the town and the Temple Guards who were acting as "guards of honor."
Natha was able to determine their identities from the weapons they were wearing, but it was clear that the patrolling soldiers squatting in the corner of the wall and gambling with the dice made her expression turn ugly …
Is this the human that Roddy mentioned who can "solve problems"?
Their long swords were rusted and did not look like weapons on their bodies at all, but more like fire sticks!
There were several groups of patrolling soldiers like this, but they were all loose and undisciplined. They walked unsteadily and did not have much fighting power.
The only plausible explanation was the group of Holy Temple Guards standing along the street. They were wearing the full set of metal armor of the Church. Their aura was passable, but their combat power —
Before she could come to a conclusion, Natha's body was shaken by the sudden burst of air, causing her to stagger. She almost missed a step and fell off the wall!
What's going on?
She raised her head and heard the sound of something crashing from afar. There was a flash of light which allowed her to see the two Gargoyles swooping down from the sky …
What the hell is that?
Natha's mind was filled with questions. She did not understand the human world, so she did not know what the appearance of the Gargoyles meant. So at this moment, she calmly looked around and tried to memorize the terrain. But the following explosion made Natha gradually frown. When she turned her head, she saw the "Thane" who had spoken to Roddy previously.
But this Thane could not be more embarrassed at this moment. He was trying to find a way out from the narrow alley between two wooden houses and then madly ran into the distance …
In the next moment, the walls of the two wooden houses were directly smashed into pieces. Two tall figures wielding long swords stepped out from the sky full of debris and dust, and chased after him without hesitation!
The Temple Guards by the side of the street were stunned for a moment, but then they decisively raised their swords and met the enemy head-on. Obviously, their battle awareness was not bad, and they quickly understood what was going on.
Six armored Temple Guards surrounded them, sealing off all of the enemy's attack routes.
But in the next moment, Natha who was standing not far away widened her eyes in shock.
The two Puppet Guards did not even bother to block and allowed the swords to slash their bodies. "Ka ka ka" sounds of impact could be heard, but the Temple Guards realized that their swords could only leave a few marks on the Puppet Guards' bodies!
"Bang —"
The Puppet Guards' counterattack came one after another. With just a simple sweep of their swords, the group of Temple Guards were sent flying like garbage being swept away by a broom …
The broken swords and dented armors were proof of the terrifying strength of the two Puppet Guards. At this moment, Natha also understood that something unexpected had happened.
But when she gripped the short bow tightly, she suddenly felt a little helpless. This is a battle between humans, is there a need for me to participate?
But this question only appeared for a moment. When she thought of Roddy's action of saving Elsa's village, Natha immediately felt indescribably ashamed of her thoughts just now.
In the next moment, Natha stretched out her hand and drew her sword. Without saying a word, she aimed at the two Puppet Guards!
"Pa pa!"
After Roddy's adjustment of the short bow, it was much easier to use. But then she realized that the long arrow actually slid past the Puppet Guards' bodies, and did not cause any damage at all …
These were not creatures of flesh and blood at all, but two completely moving steel monsters.
Natha's expression changed slightly, but she did not believe it. She immediately drew her arrow and was about to launch a second round of attack. But then she sensed something streaking across the sky and suddenly lowered her head. At the same time, a Gargoyle instantly swept past at a low altitude. Its huge wings brought about a strong gust of wind that caused Natha's cloak to flutter, and even the hood on her head to fall down …
Her dark brown long hair was blown by the strong wind. Natha gritted her teeth as she looked at the Gargoyle that had caused her to be in a sorry state. She raised her short bow and tried to take aim, but then she discovered in despair that the Gargoyle had instantly flown over a hundred meters away, far beyond Natha's attack range!
The two puppets didn't pay any attention to Nata and continued to chase after Sodelor. Although Sodelor loudly ordered the Temple Knights to move away, the Temple Knights did not have the slightest consciousness to obey, and all of them eagerly surrounded him.
This result was naturally tragic.
Ten seconds later, the eight Temple Guards who tried to stop the Puppet Guards were lying on the side of the road in various postures, screaming in pain with broken bones and tendons …
Seeing this scene, Natha, who originally did not think much of it, inexplicably panicked.
The Puppet Guards were obviously not huge beasts, but they gave her an inexplicable deterrent like a giant elephant in bone armor. Her attacks were ineffective, and her attempts to stop them were ineffective. Even an anvil lying on the side of the road was kicked away by them. How could she resist such an enemy?
The well-equipped Temple Guards were utterly defeated, and the sword-wielding patrols ran away faster than anyone else!
Looking at everything in front of her, Natha's heart turned cold. Was Roddy's so-called 'promise' to let Elsa Village rely on this group of incompetent people to protect it?
Sodelor's order echoed in the distance. Natha reached out to tuck her messy hair behind her ears, her gaze becoming increasingly indifferent.
If that's the case, then it's better to go back early and contribute to the village. It's better than letting this group of incompetent people provide some 'protection' …
With this thought in mind, Natha no longer had the will to fight. But before she could make her next move, she suddenly heard the undisguised sound of horse hooves.
At first, it seemed to be only a few horses, but in the blink of an eye, the sound suddenly grew louder, even causing the ground to tremble!
"Cavalry — Charge!"
A short but impassioned order suddenly rang out. A large group of cavalry suddenly rushed out from the end of the street corner. They were clad in armor, and the first three rows of cavalry wielded a three and four-meter-long spear in their hands. They were silently and oppressively charging straight from the distance!
The sound of horse hooves rumbled like thunder, and Natha, who was seeing a cavalry group charge for the first time, was dumbfounded.
It was clearly a group of less than 40 people, but when the first three rows of cavalry raised their spears and pointed forward, the biting cold murderous intent made Natha involuntarily take a step back!
This was definitely a valiant warrior that the temple guards could not compare to. They had experienced hundreds of battles and were full of hot blood!
Under absolute orders, these cavalry that had killed more than 400 beastmen were fearless!
They were true soldiers, true war machines.
The group sped up at full speed, and when Sodelor hid in the side alley, the cavalry raised their spears and pointed them at the two puppets that could not dodge in time …
With such a commotion, the two puppets instinctively raised their swords and prepared to fight back. But they only managed to move halfway, and Luge, who was charging at the front, had already stabbed his spear towards the puppets' chest!
After a month of hard training, Luge would not miss a single stab at a fixed target.
"Dong!"
The metal spearhead struck the puppet's body, and the sturdy body caused the spearhead to distort. The huge recoil caused the spear to break on the spot. But this was only the first strike. Almost at the same time, seven other spears struck the two seemingly 'indestructible' puppets …
The sound of the spears breaking rang out incessantly, but the puppets standing on the ground could not stop the terrifying impact of the scouts. Their heavy bodies retreated several steps, and finally, cracks appeared on their bodies!
However, after the first row of cavalrymen swept past, the scouts behind them wielding longswords were the ones who caused the most damage. Their lances disrupted the puppet's counterattack. Just when the puppet lost its balance, a dozen longswords smashed into the puppet's body one after the other.
No matter how strong the puppets' defense was, they could not withstand such a powerful impact. This group was definitely an elite force that could face off against the Wolf Cavalry. If they were stopped by two iron puppets, how could they be worthy of their bodies and abilities that had been through mountains of corpses and seas of blood?
In the blink of an eye, the cavalry swept up a cloud of smoke and dust and crushed over the Iron Puppets. The two Iron Puppets, who had been insufferably arrogant just a moment ago, had become scrap metal lying on the ground, covered in horse hoof prints.
Natha's entire body was trembling … Because this group of terrifying armored cavalry made her tremble like when she was facing a horde of beasts!
However, she had overlooked a fact at this moment: The horde of beasts numbered in the hundreds, but the cavalry in front of her had less than forty people.
Not a single one of the scouts was injured, and they continued to outflank the enemy without stopping. Natha turned her gaze towards the street that was flashing with light. Because she was standing at a higher position, she just happened to see the scene of Roddy jumping down from the roof and directly pouncing on the body of the gargoyle …
Hissing and screaming, the spinning body froze in the air and then fell.
"Boom!"
The shattered gargoyle smashed into a stone house in front of Natha, creating a huge hole in the roof.
As for the fellow that killed it, he flew diagonally into the stable at the side …
