A bright red robe, a staff covered with snake scales, and an imposing manner … With just one look, Sally knew that the old man in front of her was not a kind person.
The knights beside him were well-equipped. Shadow priests in black robes held a staff in their hands, and their aura was threatening. The silver snake and cross emblem on their chests already showed their identity. The whole team was small, but it made Sally feel an unprecedented threat!
The opponent seemed to be a little surprised by the appearance of Sally and the others, but they quickly calmed down. Facing more than 70 people, they did not retreat at all. They just stood there quietly, waiting for the order of the old man in red robe.
As the commander of this battle, Goethe glanced at Sally and the others in front of him, then looked away and said calmly: "Get rid of them."
As soon as he finished speaking, five shadow spells accompanied the sudden acceleration of the team of knights. When the explosion sounded, Sally saw the soldiers in the front row instantly flew backwards …
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
The shadow arrows hit the shields, and some penetrated the bodies. The whole team suddenly fell into danger again. Sally bent down to dodge a shadow arrow. She stretched out her hand to cast "Holy Shield" and then used "Recovery" to save the wounded. But when she looked at the battlefield again, she found that there was no way to continue this battle!
In front of them was a group of powerful shadow priests and a dozen or so knights, while behind them were over a hundred pursuers that they had yet to shake off. Under such a pincer attack, the entire team was on the verge of collapse. Even though Sally was desperately trying to maintain the frontline, it was to no avail.
The soldiers in the front could not stop the cavalry's charge at all. The knights in the back waved their swords and slashed wildly. Some enemies had already broken through the defense line and whistled past Sally. The defense formation had already failed, and the soldiers' morale had collapsed. They did not want to fight anymore. Some had already tried to hide from the shadow arrows, but more were trampled to death under the hooves of the warhorses …
In the midst of the screams, Sally gritted her teeth and tried to use divine spells. But she found that the mana recovered from the bottle of potion had been completely used up. At this moment, she could not even cast the lowest level "Holy Light"!
At this point, Goethe, who was far away, was only observing the staff in his hand, as if he had no interest in looking over.
However, just as the battle was about to end without any suspense, an arrow landed in front of Gerd, causing him to suddenly raise his gaze.
"Pu!"
In the next second, a Shadow Priest not far away from Gerd suddenly burst out with a large amount of blood. With a shattered "Shadow Barrier" ripple, he fell off his horse and died.
Two seconds later, another arrow appeared and pierced through a knight's plate armor with a "ka" sound.
Goethe frowned and raised his head. He gripped his scepter tightly and scanned the battlefield in front of him with his eagle-like eyes. However, this arrow came and went like a ghost, and there was no way to determine its angle. In just ten seconds, the guards in front of him had lost five people. He waved his hand to cast the "Shadow Shield", but the faint sense of threat still made him feel irritated.
The bishop was not in the mood to play hide-and-seek with such an enemy. He raised his scepter and began chanting without hesitation …
On the other side, Sally, who was in the middle of the battlefield, did not know what was going on with the sudden casualties of the enemy. She could see nothing but the dust that the cavalry kicked up as they passed. Dodging the whizzing cutlasses, she staggered back a few paces, and as she turned her head, an enemy thrust his sword at her.
"Ka!"
The Holy Shield blocked the enemy's attack, and at the same time, Sally's dagger pierced through the enemy's chest.
However, this kind of killing was of no use. At this time, the enemy had completely separated her team. Looking at the team members who had fought with her in the Briar Forest for three months, one by one, Sally's heart was filled with unprecedented despair. At this moment … the sky darkened again.
The sudden accumulation of shadow elements above her head was far beyond Sally's imagination. In a trance, she saw the red robed elder in the distance raise the scepter in his hand —
"Boom boom boom boom …"
A deafening explosion sounded throughout the battlefield. Sally's "Holy Shield" instantly shattered under the impact, and she was also swept away by the huge shockwave … The "Shadow Absolution" that had an area of more than a hundred square meters exploded more than thirty deep pits on the ground, and even the wooden house that Naifei was hiding in was destroyed!
This was the strongest group attack spell that a Shadow Priest could master after advancing to Level 30. With the support of the "Viper's Kiss", its current power was almost comparable to the "Forbidden Spell" that could only be mastered after advancing to Level 45 …
This attack did not differentiate between friend and foe, but Goethe did not even bat an eyelid at the casualties on his side. After reaching the position of Cardinal in the "Viper's Cross" Sect, his heart was already cruel and ruthless beyond ordinary people. In order to eliminate the threat of archers, Goethe did not care about sacrificing a few of his men.
"Clean up the battlefield. I do not want to see any heretics alive."
After casting this skill, he felt the resistance from the "Viper's Kiss" again. Even though the power of the spell had increased by several times, Goethe still felt a little annoyed.
Following his order, the soldiers who had already formed a pincer attack immediately began the final cleansing of the remaining members of the "Rose Cross" …
Sally, who was lying on the ground, opened her eyes. Blood flowed down the side of her face, and the intense ringing in her ears made her dizzy. She turned her head, and in her blurry vision, the first thing she saw was the two bone dice that had fallen out of her pocket and scattered on the ground.
The enemies with scimitars rushed over, and Sally knew that she no longer had a chance to fight back.
In the end, she could not escape.
The half-collapsed wooden house not far away filled her heart with guilt. Sally did not know if the little girl named Camilla was fine. She looked at the bright scimitar that was already raised in front of her, and her only reaction was to grab the bone dice that was not far from her. She sighed in her heart.
She had been depressed for the past four months, and at this moment, she felt an inexplicable sense of relief.
However, in the sky reflected by her calm eyes, a black shadow quietly streaked across …
The enemy's scimitar was about to fall, but a huge force suddenly hit his body. In the howling wind, his body was actually trampled on by a figure!
"Ka ka ka" The sound of bones breaking was heard, and the figure suddenly replaced the enemy's position. In the sky, a slightly comical giant bird flew low in the sky. Its wingspan of more than seven meters brought about a shadow, and everyone present was stunned.
Sally squinted her eyes. In the midst of the dust, the only thing she could distinguish was the blue and white priest robe on the other side, and the quiver on his back?
Not far away, in the almost completely collapsed wooden house, Naifei pushed away the heavy book on top of her head. Her eyes looked through the gaps of the wooden chair and countless debris to the battlefield in front of her. Her fingers tightly grasped the last remaining scroll.
In the middle of the battlefield, the figure in the priest robe did not release any magic. Instead, he raised the short bow in his hand, stepped forward, and instantly began to shoot at a terrifying high speed!
It was hard to describe what Roddy was feeling at this moment. He never thought that he would see the scene of Sally lying in a pool of blood, and even more so … the wooden house that still existed in the year 594 would be blown to pieces at this moment.
Sally was seriously injured, Naifei's life was unknown … and the shadow priest who was above level 30 was the mastermind of all this.
Was the enemy strong?
Strong, so strong that Roddy only had a 20% chance of winning. It was extremely stupid to attack at this time, not to mention that there were so many enemies waiting for him to launch a surprise attack.
But … did he have a choice?
Without any nonsense, Roddy directly jumped down from the back of the Needle-Tailed Sand Cone. With his strong physical attributes, he withstood the impact brought by the acceleration of gravity. Then he raised the short bow and faced all the threats directly.
The unprecedented panic and anger since his rebirth had all turned into the power of calmness at this moment. In his eyes, there was only the figure of the enemy left in the world.
"Full of Vigor" activated.
"Rapid Shooting" activated.
"Arcane Shooting" instantly poured out like a torrential rain, and the sound of the bowstring being pulled was continuous. From near to far, the soldiers, knights, and even the shadow priest could not dodge in time. On the spot, they were hit in the heart or throat by the flashing blue arrows, and directly fell to the ground!
Looking at his back view, Sally, who was lying on the ground, thought that she was hallucinating. That figure dressed in a robe was repeating the actions of 'retrieving the arrow' and 'shooting the arrow' with actions that she couldn't be more familiar with. Everything was just like what had happened in her countless dreams. That silly, slow-witted, yet extremely powerful fellow stood in front of her, protecting her and repelling all of her enemies …
Fingers tightly holding the voodoo die that Roddy gave her, Sally took a deep breath, but did not dare to make a sound … She was afraid that this beautiful dream would be broken, and the cruel reality would be revealed.
However, this dream did not seem to be broken. After shooting six arrows, the guy in front of her casually threw away the short bow. Facing the charging enemies, he pulled out the short sword from his waist, bent down, and slashed horizontally!
It was still the familiar figure, but his movements were faster, more powerful … and more brutal.
In just three seconds, two soldiers who were charging at him had their heads chopped off. Blood splattered everywhere, and a red potion bottle was thrown to Sally's side.
"If I was one step slower, I would never forgive myself for the rest of my life."
When the calm words came out, Sally finally confirmed that all of this was not a dream. She suddenly exhaled … Looking at the face that was no different from her memory, she wanted to show a smile, but after a "ha" sound, she could not help but burst into tears. In an instant, tears covered her face.
He is still alive.
He is not dead.
He came to save me.
Sally looked at Roddy who turned around and continued to slash. Her fingers loosened the voodoo die, and then gently pinched the red healing potion …
