Chapter 150: A Glimpse of the Ranger (End)
Magda instinctively felt something was wrong. He tried to raise his hands and was about to break free from the confinement, but he saw that the three people in the distance had no intention of attacking him. Instead, Rubens suddenly raised the scepter that had already appeared and shot a ring into the air...
What does this mean?
Signal? Warning? Or give up?
Countless speculations emerged from Magda's mind, but the next moment, he clearly heard the sound of mechanical structures coming from afar. When he looked along the sound, his grayish-white pupils suddenly shrank.
He would never have thought that the crossbows on the west city wall would be completely aimed at his position at this time
This is one of the "most powerful" backhands planned by Roddy and Rubens at the time: If the enemy is really strong, use a crossbow to attack directly in clusters.
Originally, there were B crossbows on the west wall, and they were all facing outside the city wall. However, at Roddy's request, they all moved to the inner side of the city wall a few days ago, and had already booked four strike points through test shooting-
In Roddy's expectation, once this plan is activated, the soldiers on the city wall can adjust the crossbow landing point according to the command of the superintendent's magic halo at any time. After a brief training, they have shortened the adjustment time to about 20 seconds. Because they have practiced more than a dozen times, the soldiers have already pointed the crossbow at the bottom of the bell tower as soon as Rubens sent a signal.
The crossbows, which were originally used to kill enemies from a distance on the city wall, are extremely powerful. The width of the crossbow arms alone is more than three meters. The diameter of the crossbow arrow is as thick as a wrist. The metal head that is comparable to the long dagger has greatly increased the power of the crossbow arrow. Even if people in this era do not understand the "momentum theorem", they also understand the law of "strong bows and heavy arrows". Therefore, at this time, the power of these eight crossbows has already exceeded countless times the individual defense limit.
Even the most powerful heavy armored knight, hitting this crossbow arrow at this time would be a candied haws.
When Magda was realized by Rubens, he had no time to break free from the "holy confinement"
"Swoosh swish swish--"
The crossbow arrows drew black shadows in the air, with a dull and depressing sound of impact, instantly flew over nearly a hundred meters of space, and "crackling" to smash the stone wall below the bell tower.
Magda was instantly flooded by the slag and dust splashed after the crossbow arrow smashed the stones. Even Roddy, who was lying on the ground early to avoid it, could not see clearly whether this powerful ranger was shot.
"As long as there is one, just one hits it"
At this moment, Roddy's heart was completely suspended in the air, staring at the smoke and dust without blinking, and even not paying attention to half of his body hanging on the edge of the roof on the fourth floor.
But when the smoke and dust disappeared, Roddy cursed angrily—
"Damn, haven't died yet?"
A faint movement came - Roddy frowned, and then noticed Magda's almost bottoming blood in the "Peripheral Character Information Column". He held the dagger in his hand tightly and stood up to call Wellington in the distance to come to help, but then he discovered that the situation in front of him seemed not as pessimistic as he imagined.
Magda is indeed alive - although the crossbow shot nearly 100 meters away has been calibrated and it is still shooting B crossbows. But the target like Magda is too small, and only one of the huge crossbow arrows hit him.
But fortunately... Although Magda was powerful, he had no room for resistance in the face of this level of attack: his entire left shoulder was shot, and the huge metal head of the crossbow arrow directly smashed his shoulder blades and flesh, and even knocked away his left arm directly.
At this moment, a huge hole was blown out by the cluster of crossbow arrows in the middle of the bell tower, and Magda was half dead in the hole, and his hand was stretched out to get up a lot of slower movements - because he had been "living" for too long, his body didn't even have much blood flowing out at this time, but the look of losing half of his body was really a bit terrible...
Roddy confirmed that the other party had no power to fight back at all, so he immediately raised the ring in his hand and looked at the other party. "Take your life while you are sick" is the life principle that must be followed - he was about to rush over and remove Magda from a big piece, but he never thought that this guy actually supported his body with one hand and stood up staggeringly...
The body under the holy light began to be burned, and the "squeaking" black smoke made Magda's skin ulcerate. The [Windler] slowly raised his gaze, and first narrowed his eyes slightly by the holy light, then glanced at the surroundings and his body as if nothing had happened...
A sense of unspeakable cruelty slowly emerged from the already festered cheeks, but Magda did not roar and chose to fight desperately, but instead glanced over Rubens, Wellington and Titus in the distance, as if they wanted to remember their faces. Then he took a sudden step and jumped directly from the big hole of the bell tower.
"I still want to run away..."
Roddy wanted to chase after stepping, but when he saw the height gap of more than ten meters under him, he immediately remembered that he had no effect [Morochi's Blessing], his blood volume, agility and physical strength were completely incomparable to the past. In the end, he could only give up the idea of leaping down to chase Magda, and instead jumped to the low building next to him, and then he jumped to the ground several times. He glanced at Magda's figure running wildly outside the city. He took a step and chased after him.
He doesn't want such a guy with a strong desire to take revenge to live. If he can get rid of him, he must not hesitate.
Thinking of this in his heart, Roddy could only watch Magda leaping onto the second floor of another house with an astonishing speed, and disappeared in a few jumps. Roddy, who was chasing behind, had no skills enough to pursue him at this time. The low-level "jump" skills could not make him jump onto the balcony on the side of the road. In desperation, he could only shout loudly at the Knight Wellington who was also chasing: "He must go out of the city to send someone to the city wall to stop him."
The knight who was running by the roof in the distance did not respond, nor did he know whether he had heard this sentence.
It was not until this time that Roddy felt his body trembling violently than ever before. At first he thought it was a side effect of [Morochi's Blessing], but as soon as he stopped, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.
With his hand on the wall next to the street, Roddy found a place to sit on the ground exhausted, breathing like a fish coming out of water.
"Damn it, how could it be Magda... This has become too much..."
His mind was messy, because no similar thing had happened in history in memory. According to the original trajectory, the old duke was probably "dead" in the Duke's Mansion at this time, and Sally had long died on the grassland. The city of Hollier was firmly controlled by the "Duke" of Francis. The undead Alpha may still be hidden in the Duke's Mansion, and continues to lay out the thread for the conspiracy of the Tasman Kingdom...
But now, his arrival has completely disrupted all this. Whether it is the orc kingdom that is eyeing the covetous orc kingdom or the undead who slowly poked out the bloody teeth several years later, they were all over the place in the Everta territory because of Roddy's thrust. All of this sounds quite proud, but after fighting Magda with all his might, he suddenly understood a fact...
I'm still far from saving this country
The scout team that was pulled out exhausted and hard can't stop these guys from attacking in the future...
The pressure in his heart seemed to increase several times in an instant, making Roddy, who was already breathing, feel more and more suffocating. The burning feeling in his chest was delayed for a long time before it was conveyed. Roddy opened his eyes, but felt that the surroundings seemed to have become darker. The scenery in front of him began to rotate slowly, like a blurred illusion...
It was already early in the morning, and the pedestrians passing by the street looked at the soldiers sitting by the wall, covered in blood, and several of them even seemed to be speechless.
Roddy felt that his arms seemed to be getting heavy, and his body couldn't stop sliding down to the side. He looked down and realized that his hands were covered with blood.
It seems like my chest is... injured?
When he realized that there was a wound on his body, the pain of adrenaline delay suddenly became clear. He wanted to open his mouth and say something, but he could no longer control his body and fell to the ground slantedly.
Opening his mouth, Roddy wanted to summon the "character attribute panel", but suddenly it became dark in front of him, and the words came to his mouth and turned into a low moan.
I want to upgrade and recover...
Roddy thought so in her heart, but finally fainted due to excessive blood loss.
September 27, the Duke's Mansion, Hollier City.
"Master, the team sent out to search still did not reply."
"Continue to search and issue notices to cheer me up all the nobles in the Everta Territory."
"Master, the Supervisor Bishop announced that the convoy would be postponed. He himself said he would arrive at noon."
"Go to prepare for lunch, this old guy is quite conscientious..."
The conversation sounded in the living room of the Duke's Mansion. The busy servants shuttled through the information and reported the information. The two guardian knights had recovered from the help of divine magic. At this time, they were wearing swords and armor and were alert to the Duke's side, with caution and alert at any time to possible attacks.
There was a lot of parchment in front of Duke Angma, and sitting opposite him were Roddy's three bones: Soderol, Ruger and Carter.
