The Elf Sword Dancer's double swords accurately penetrated the gap between the collarbones from top to bottom, and penetrated straight into the centaur scout's body without any hindrance.
However, the centaur scout's physical strength was completely beyond ordinary people's imagination. After being stabbed with two swords, he grabbed his back and threw the elf riding on him to the ground.
He rolled, got up, and narrowly escaped being trampled by the centaur. This was a vertical leap. The two swords penetrated straight, not diagonally, and pierced directly into the heart, and it didn't seem to penetrate deeply; at the same time,
It was too late to draw the sword, causing heavy bleeding to the opponent. If any of the points were achieved, there would be no chance for the centaur to thrive.
Liena looked at the scout she had injured without any fear. At this time, she realized even more how tall the centaur was. Even if she stood up, she could only look up at him.
Centaurs always only wear breastplates. This is because if someone wants to attack their backs, they have to get over the huge horse body first, which is not easy, so their backs are rarely attacked. The only exception is
Long-range shooting with bows and arrows. At this time, the elves who were slowly taking a step forward to surround them all quickly opened their bows and shot, looking at their momentum, they were about to shoot the centaurs into honeycombs.
The best way to avoid shooting is not to stand still and become a living target. The centaur scout understands this very well. He spreads his hooves, swings his spear, and opens and closes his posture. No matter how skilled Liena is, she will have a head-on collision.
He was no match for a cavalry, let alone only one dagger in his hand. The two long swords he usually used were still stuck on the centaur's shoulders.
Thinking of the man's advice before leaving, it was only five words: get off the ground and chop off the horse's feet. Even though Liena was a brave artist, she only thought about what nonsense this man said at that time. The centaur one
The size, weight, and elf's small body can be stepped on by the opponent several times. If he rolls on the ground, isn't he looking for someone to step on him?
But the changes in front of her were so fast, and her life was hanging by a thread, she no longer cared about what was reasonable or unreasonable. The moment before she was about to be hit, she rolled to the side, and at the same time, the dagger in her hand pointed towards the two sides of her side.
The horse's hoof crossed over. With the sudden change, she could not guarantee how accurate her attack would be. But judging from the feel, she should have hit something.
After dislocating, the centaur stumbled and fell down as if its legs were paralyzed. The other elves saw this opportunity, held the elven scimitars upside down in both hands, and all performed jump kills. Only eight or nine swords were seen pointing towards the centaur scout.
The soft flesh on his body actually aroused his ferocity. He stood up bravely and shook away all the elves that were pressing on him.
The centaur scouts who got up again had a clearly visible green light on their bodies. As old rivals, even if these elves were young people who had never seen a centaur, they remembered from the information that this was a battle from a centaur druid.
The time-resuscitation technique is used to overdraw vitality and provide emergency treatment. It is handed over to every centaur warrior in the form of a talisman.
Basically, using the magic of wartime resuscitation, this centaur is effectively useless. To save him is to find time to give him a happy relief, or else he will be disabled for a lifetime. But for their opponents, it is not the case.
What good news. The elves pulled out their spare scimitars, but they still couldn't stop the centaurs' big guns and they were all driven back.
The surrounded centaurs roared to the sky in grief and indignation. They originally made a large circle in order to maintain the charge speed, but the other two who turned back to support changed their direction and ran back to the position of the main force to convey the information here.
.
There were elves who wanted to catch up, but how could a two-legged one catch up to a four-legged one, not to mention that there was a centaur present. He knew that he was too seriously injured and couldn't escape the obstacle in front of him anyway, so he simply didn't care.
Ignoring all the attacks directed at him, he fired his big gun at the three elves who were planning to pursue him.
The three people who were unprepared were knocked down with one blow. The first person who was swept away suffered the worst, as his ankle was directly hit and the bones were broken. Compared to him, the other two elves were only knocked down by him.
After a hard fight and the siege of ten elves, only one centaur was left. The other two were determined to run away, but they were completely powerless and could only watch the other's horses butts eat the rising smoke.
The first fight reminded Liena of the record documents she had seen. If calculated using mathematics, on average three elves would have to die to kill one centaur. The gap in individual strength between the two sides was so vast. Then today I experienced it personally.
Back, it reminded her of her experience of encountering a troll in the swamp. That time she was alone and almost couldn't make it out alive.
Looking at the injured subordinates, Liena directly ordered: 'You guys, go back to the camp directly and report that you have been in contact with the centaurs.'
‘No! Captain, I can still fight.’ The lame elf stood up straight on one leg and said emotionally.
Liena didn't talk nonsense to them, and directly kicked off the opponent's other leg. At the same time, she pointed at the other two elves who were knocked down by the centaur's spear during the battle. Although their legs were not broken, their movements were already somewhat hindered.
, said: 'You two will send him back immediately, heal his two legs, and report back on the situation here.'
Faced with this kind of temporary team leader who didn't talk much but was ruthless, no one dared to be stubborn and acted directly according to the orders. Instead, the elf whose leg was kicked off shouted loudly to keep him and give him a chance.
With a bow, he can still stop a hundred centaurs.
No elf listened to those nonsense words. The two named people directly crossed his left and right arms and walked back, for fear that the elf sword dancer would hit his feet again.
Seeing the wounded leave first, everyone knew that they might not be able to return to the camp. The next time the centaurs appeared, the numbers would definitely make people feel desperate. At that time, they could only run wildly, praying that they could outrun them.
Four-legged. If the centaur appeared too early and failed to buy much time for the injured ones, but was overtaken by him instead, that would definitely be the end of it.
Retrieving the weapon from the fallen centaur, Liena looked around, pointed to a tall but somewhat bare tree, and said: 'Establish an observation point over there, and be ready to run away when you see the enemy. I hope you can do it first.
Those who left still remembered the previous instructions and walked another way.'
Knowing that her mission was to be a decoy, Liena of course focused on investigating several escape routes. She also made plans for those who retreated first to take different routes from those who retreated later, in order to avoid the dilemma of those who left first being caught up. However,
There are many centaur main forces, but they may not all be chasing after you. Everything just depends on your fate.
I encountered the centaur scouts, are they still far away from their main force?
One elf was assigned to go up the tree. He was a young man from the scout team. The others stayed under the tree to recharge their batteries while reflecting on the gains and losses of the previous battle. Ten elves faced off against three centaur scouts, leaving only
One, two escaped. One on my side was seriously injured, two were slightly injured, and no one died. If this was repaid, it would be a credit.
But the people present were not ordinary elf soldiers, either the king's guards, or members of the scout team. No matter where they came from, they were all elites. However, the elites still achieved such results, and everyone's ears turned red. This is
Ashamed.
But there is nothing we can do about it. The last war with the centaurs was more than 20 years ago. Military service in the Elf Kingdom is compulsory for five to ten years, including important troops such as the king's guards.
The first five years must be ordinary soldiers, and the best ones can join elite squads such as scouts. After five years, if you prove that you are capable and trustworthy, you can join a special army like the King's Guards, but the total military service period
It will still not exceed ten years. Except for the leading generals, everyone else will be transferred to reserve service.
In other words, none of the elves present had any actual combat experience with centaurs. Therefore, this encounter not only gained insights, but also proved the power of centaurs in the elves’ collection. You know, before today,
But not many young elves are convinced by centaurs. Nowadays, it’s no longer possible to be unconvinced.
‘Sister!──’ started by the fat elf, this is what this temporary team calls the Elf Sword Dancer, ‘──I saw a large number of frightened birds in the forest not far away, which may be the enemy.’
'Okay, come down, we're going to run.'
‘This...isn’t good. We haven’t seen the centaur yet, aren’t we responsible for luring the enemy?’ Some elves objected.
It was different from the situation of the injured before. No one was injured this time. It was inevitable that some people would try again. Liena could only explain with difficulty: "They need to see people so that they can catch up."
If so, the centaur has no qualifications to become a serious threat to the kingdom. Besides, if he doesn't run away now, he won't be able to run away.'
It made sense, and everyone stopped insisting. After a while, they were ready to leave. The fastest one was the elf boy who climbed up the tree. He was also afraid of being left behind by others. According to the character of the leader,
I'm afraid I won't even look back. Just now, Liena kicked someone's leg off with a kick, and her ruthlessness was seen by others.
Before they could run much distance, there was a roar behind them. This is a phenomenon that only occurs with large-scale cavalry. Of course, a very large number of centaurs running around at the same time can also create this kind of momentum. Everyone
Everyone knows that the critical moment has arrived!
Fortunately, the injured people were sent back first, and my group took a different route from them. In order to achieve the effect of luring the enemy, the whereabouts I left on the road were only roughly processed. It was very rough, but the traces could still be seen.
. But soon, everyone realized that these deliberate pretense were unnecessary, because no matter what they did, the centaur behind them could still bite them accurately.
With the centaur's ability to track, the elves who were free were worried about the injured soldiers on the other side. However, most elves still focused on escaping, shuttling between the woods, taking the shortest path, and sometimes ducking through tree branches with their heads lowered.
, and sometimes they have to jump over fallen tree trunks or roots protruding from the ground.
When the first short spear flew past, everyone knew where the centaur had chased them without looking back. Judging from the sound, they could roughly guess the number of people chasing them. It probably didn't require any fighting, just using
