"Stalking?"
As soon as Louise finished speaking, a cold arrow shot out from the dark corner of the cave with a flash of cold light. It hit Kooper's body and got stuck at the junction between his ribs and spine.
The two skeletons reacted immediately. Lola pulled out her dagger and began to sneak towards the place where the arrow came from. The whole process was silent, just like a master of stealth. Kooper, who was shot by the arrow, lowered his body slightly. His skull turned left and right as if he was looking for the position of the enemy with his eyes that were only left with two big holes.
From this, one could see the difference between the two skeletons.
Rolla's reaction was faster and more accurate. He could determine the enemy's position in a flash and immediately respond to it. Kooper, on the other hand, was similar to the average mercenary. Although he would subconsciously shrink his exposed body to avoid being pursued, his combat awareness was obviously much worse than Rolla's.
"Tsk." The attacker saw that he had been identified as the target and could not help but click his tongue in displeasure.
Then, two more arrows were shot at Xu Shenxing. Probably because of the angle, Louise, who was standing to the side, was not listed as the target.
If it were any other time, Xu Shenxing wouldn't even bother to dodge these two arrows. However, he was now just a projection of his consciousness. If he was hit by an arrow, it would be troublesome if the network connection was interrupted and he couldn't retrieve his head.
So, he moved his body slightly to avoid the two arrows.
Perhaps realizing that the arrow could not achieve its goal, the guy who shot the arrow finally stood out from the dark corner.
The other party was dressed like a mercenary from another world. He wore inferior leather armor that seemed to be poorly made and softened. There was a bow on his back and a quiver of arrows on his waist. Judging from the feathers on his tail, there were probably two or three arrows left.
At this time, he was holding a Scottish Highland two-handed sword that was more common on the battlefield in the middle of the 15th century on Earth. Even the spherical hilt and the wide crossguard were similar in shape. Xu Shenxing even thought that he might have traveled back to ancient Earth.
Well, if it were not for Louise's hair color, which did not exist on Earth, and the hostile mercenary's next action.
The guy took out a smoke-like object from a small waist bag behind his quiver and smeared it on the blade.
As soon as the gray substance came into contact with the metal blade, it immediately fused with it. The body of the greatsword glowed with an orange light, just like a piece of iron that had just been taken out of the forge. When it was swung, sparks would float from it. At first glance, it gave people the impression that the greatsword was quite powerful.
With a single hand, the other party brandished the large sword that was about 1.2 centimeters long. The flying sparks illuminated the other party's dark and weather-beaten face. Accompanied by a sinister smile, the cold killing intent that was unique to mercenaries who licked blood on the edge of their blades faintly spread out.
. Rolla sneaked over to Kooper's neck....
"Well, at least let him finish his act." Regarding this, Xu Shenxing could only curl his lips and silently criticize in his heart.
However, everything did not end there.
Rolla quickly turned around and rushed toward the dark tunnel entrance, but it was still a step too late.
A sharp spiked mace smashed out from the darkness!
This weapon, produced in India in the 18th century, was a typical blunt weapon with 118 independent points. It was the weapon of the Marathas. They used this ancient weapon to defeat the British East India Company's army at Wardgorn in 1779.
Obviously, this blunt weapon was far more damaging to skeletons than sharp weapons.
Rolla, who could not completely avoid the blow, was sent flying because its weight was far lighter than a human's. The bones on its wrist were broken.
Fortunately, Cooper finally found the enemy and rushed toward the second mercenary wielding his kukri knife.
"Are they okay?"
It seemed that Louise was still a little worried about the combat power of her skeletons.
"Well, there are only three mercenaries in the tunnel, including the one whose neck was slit. In addition to the spiked mace, there is one who uses a flanged mace. "Xu Shenxing looked calm." But at least they can hold on for a while. "
A flanged spiked hammer is one with raised edges on the hammer head — usually seven. It looked a bit like a paladin's warhammer, but in fact, it originated in Europe in the 16th century. It was a weapon that gradually evolved from a cavalry hammer.
"Aren't you going to help?" Louise looked at Xu Shenxing expectantly. "If I'm killed, some of your requests can't be fulfilled. Maybe you won't even be able to appear in this world."
"Don't make fun of me. I know what to say."
Xu Shenxing chuckled. Then, he turned his head and punched the air.
In the next moment, a man wrapped in black cloth suddenly appeared there and was sent flying.
However, the man's skills were not bad. He managed to stabilize himself in a panic and did not turn into a mural on the stone wall.
In his hand was an Indian katar short sword, which was commonly known as a fist sword.
This guy took advantage of the fact that the man wielding the large sword had attracted the attention of most of the people present. His goal seemed to be to assassinate Louise directly.
After all, this girl's background was clearly written on the wanted poster. She was a wizard who could control the undead.
As long as they could kill her directly, the undead would lose their source of magic and naturally disappear. Therefore, these mercenaries wanted to use this kind of decapitation plan. It was best if they could shoot her dead in the beginning. Otherwise, they would let the man wielding the large sword attract attention and let the assassin secretly kill Louise.
However, there was a small accident that caused the mercenaries to suffer heavy losses. They had no choice but to let the backup take the position of the large sword and attack to attract attention.
"She didn't die?" Xu Shenxing, who was unaware of this, blinked his eyes. He was not satisfied with the effect of his punch.
Although he did not want to be splashed with blood, he did not expect the other party to be able to act as if nothing had happened. This made him a little surprised.
"An attack of the undead?" The man looked at the gemstone ring on his hand that had lost its luster and stared at Xu Shenxing vigilantly. "A dark warrior with special abilities? I didn't expect a little girl to summon such a troublesome thing. "
However, the next moment, the blade of the fist sword in his hand suddenly shot towards the girl!
"But you're still too young!"
