Whoosh —
At this moment, Elvin's body was almost parallel to the canopy under his feet. He was so fast that the scenery in his field of vision seemed to be distorted. The only thing that could be seen was a slender shadow dashing forward.
In the blink of an eye, he was already in front of Rudolph. The longsword in his hand turned into Thor's heavy hammer. When Rudolph only had time to raise his sword to protect his chest, he had already smashed it down heavily.
Boom!
The crushing power caused the "two-faced" bearded man's feet to leave the ground without any suspense, and he was once again blasted away.
At this moment, Elvin was no longer using the White Sail Sword Art that he had been practicing for almost ten years since he was eight.
Instead, it was the incomplete version of the Rapid Thunder Sword Art that he obtained from the lost city of Posedia in the Spiritual Realm while he was killing the black bugs. It did not contain any Transcendent Mysteries!
He was already half a step away from being a Master in swordsmanship. Swordsmanship that did not contain any Transcendent Mysteries was not difficult for him at all.
With the help of his "Data Vision", he had already reached a very high level after only one or two months of practice.
Also, Elvin found that …
Compared to the White Sail Sword Art that focused on dexterity and balance, he was already addicted to this kind of tit for tat!
Especially when his physical fitness was better than his opponent's in every aspect, the feeling of 100% of his strength being unleashed was very satisfying.
Bang!
Rudolph, who had been sent flying, crashed through the green hill-like canopy until he crashed heavily into a 50-meter-tall Skyview Tree, which had broken through the canopy, and finally came to a stop.
"Ouch!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood. Obviously, his internal organs had been damaged by the impact.
"Cough, cough …"
Rudolph had just struggled to get up when his military uniform, which had been reduced to rags, fell off in pieces. There was also a purple bruise on his back.
Even though he was also a peak Knight, his physical fitness, physical fitness, and swordsmanship were all inferior.
Even when he tried to use the Gyel Organ that had always been successful, it did not work. His fate was sealed!
Rudolph had obviously realized it himself. Listening to the gradually fading gunshots and roars under the canopy, his face turned red.
An abnormal flush appeared on his originally gloomy face. His eyebrows furrowed as he let out an explosive shout.
"Hah!"
Like a real Knight, he kicked off the tree trunk behind him and launched a final charge at the strong enemy who had already caught up to him.
[Denaire Swordsmanship — Profound — Defense in Offense!]
"Denier's Swordsmanship?
It was rare to find a normal soldier who didn't use a swift sword on the battlefield.
However, the ending won't change! "
Adjusting his Kokyu-ho slightly, he took a step forward and turned into a bolt of lightning, charging at Rudolph like a Heavy Knight.
At this moment, the fierce wind around him could no longer catch up with his footsteps.
Just like a real Knight with a lance, the moment they passed each other, victory and defeat were decided without any fancy tricks.
Clang!
Elvin shook off the slowly flowing "white mist" on his sword and sheathed it.
Chi —
Rudolph's heart was beating strongly, and hot blood was spurting out. His eyes suddenly widened, and he uttered his last words in disbelief.
"Uh … Swordsmanship … Master …!"
Plop —
His foot missed a step, and he fell from the treetop like a rock.
Crack!
An almost undetectable sword mark appeared on the tall tree behind him. Then, under the influence of gravity, the upper half of the tree slowly slid down along the smooth cut.
"Crash …"
Amidst the continuous rumbling of branches breaking.
A huge hole had been smashed in the almost airtight rainforest canopy by the huge tree that fell from the exposed layer, allowing the plants in the lower layer of the rainforest to finally bathe in sunlight that they had never faced before.
Perhaps a certain inconspicuous tree in the lower layer of the rainforest would seize this opportunity to grow and become a new towering tree, occupying this scarce living space.
Just like now …
Like a certain White Knight who was about to step on Shilius's dignity to the front!
"Now, it's time to reap the rewards."
When he heard that the commotion on the posthouse below had gradually calmed down, he knew that there was nothing for him to do.
Whoosh!
Elvin repeatedly jumped between the branches in the rainforest and landed on the ground with ease.
First, he confirmed that Rudolph was dead. Then, he threw down a "Wisp" and burned his body clean to prevent the Transcendent characteristic of a Peak Knight from breeding any strange things.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the light golden "Jayr's Accordion" that had fallen not far away landed in his hand like a work of art.
The red cherry wood handle was very comfortable to the touch, and there was a silver plate at the bottom of the handle. Engraved on it were the name of the gunsmith, Jayr, number 2, and the date of production, year 154 of the Yuan Calendar.
The metal barrel of the gun was made of an unknown material, covered with fine flame patterns. Alchemy had given it a hard material, making this exquisite weapon shine even after more than thirty years.
"Not bad, not bad."
Even though Seagull had been with the treasure transport team for a long time, Elvin really did not know that this guy was hiding such a good thing.
After all, he did not have the strange hobby of peeking at what was hidden under old men's clothes.
Although it was not of much use to him now.
Even if it was just an antique from the history of firearms development, it was still very valuable. Reality had proven that the double-barreled gun he got from "Blood Hand" had the best overall performance.
However, it would be a waste to put this rare weapon away as a collector's item.
It was better to give it to a certain weakling for self-defense. With his combat strength that had not improved much, if he was attacked by a Senior Knight or above, he would be dead meat.
After playing with it for a while, he put it away.
When Elvin walked out of the rainforest, the ambush team's battle was coming to an end.
* Clang! Clang! Clang! *
The last major in the escort team raised the standard half-sword in his hand to fend off the attacks of Gary and William. His body was covered in blood, and he was panting heavily as he staggered backward.
He was at most a Senior Knight, and it was already very impressive that he could hold off two Tier 2 Knights for so long. The ordinary soldiers of the escort team only had to face Milan alone.
However.
At that moment, as the final battle cries in Shilius came to an abrupt end, there was no longer any meaning to his persistence.
"Huff … Huff …"
The major, who was already exhausted, finally let out the last breath in his chest.
His longsword was knocked away by Gary's axe, and when he was wide open, William's twin swords pierced through his chest!
Splat!
The major's bloodied face finally showed a bitter smile, and he shouted with the last of his strength.
"Billy Buddha, you bastard who should have gone to hell long ago!
If you don't act now, they will take the treasure away.
When that happens, you won't get a single copper coin as commission! "
"Ha, anyway, the contract I signed with you said that I only need to protect the treasure. It's the same when you weaken the enemy's strength as much as possible …
Besides, if you don't all die, how can you show the enemy's strength so that I can collect more money? Ahahaha … "
A sneaky voice casually said that he wanted others to die.
Boom!
At the same time, an ordinary-looking wooden box that was scattered on the ground suddenly made a loud noise, and the lid of the box was blown away by a huge force.
Whoosh!
White steam curled up in spirals.
"F * ck! You guys are really useless. You can't even kill an enemy Transcendent!
However, as the most reputable mercenary in the New World, as long as Mr. Billy Buddha acts, everything will be fine.
Unless … the Pirate King comes here in person! "
A figure in shabby clothes but with a shiny body stepped out of the box and waved his hand casually to clear the steam that was obstructing his vision.
However …
The figure called Billy Buddha turned his head and saw that the major had already breathed his last. A group of "pirates" led by three Transcendent had surrounded him.
"What … are you?"
When the steam dissipated slightly and he saw the person's appearance, "Iron Bone" William instantly raised the twin swords in his hands as if he was facing a great enemy.
William's overreaction was not to be blamed.
It was because this guy not only spouted "venom", but even the enemy wanted to beat him up for his companions. His appearance was even more indescribable.
Although it had the appearance of a human and wore shabby clothes, it had a shiny metal head.
From the nose up, he was already a metal structure, and his glowing red eyes were like telescopes that were expanding and shrinking.
Through the gaps in his shabby clothes, one could even see his shiny bronze body and the metal spine on his back.
If one listened carefully, one could even hear the sound of a clockwork gear turning in his body.
"Click … click …"
In this world where the steam industry had just begun to develop, this guy with such an image was no different from a steel monster in human cognition.
"Huh? You pirates aren't very professional at all! You don't even know my name? I'm … "
Thinking that the battle was over, the Arawak guide, Zenaro, who was organizing his people to gather the lost horses and mules, passed through the crowd at this moment and blurted out when he saw the metal monster.
"You're … the strongest mercenary in the New World, 'Clockwork Man' Billy Buddha?!"
"Fire!"
When he heard the word "strongest" from Zenaro's mouth, Gary had already decisively ordered to fire. He had already remembered Elvin's advice that "villains die because they talk too much", so naturally, he would not make such a mistake.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
In an instant, gunshots were heard and smoke rose everywhere. Blazing lines of fire rushed toward the "Clockwork Man" who was still concave and posing as if he was a weed.
Clang! Clang!
At the moment when the scorching lead bullets hit, Billy Buddha instantly unsheathed the two thin long straight swords at his waist. He twisted his wrists and turned them into a bright silver fan-shaped storm.
He easily blocked the rainstorm-like lead bullets!
