Although everything seemed so calm when the horse was galloping just now, Geralt seemed to be planning to talk and laugh with Yennefer. However, Xie Yuan's vigilance was suddenly heightened, because suddenly there was something very strange behind him.
Violent movement.
"Attention! We are being pursued!" Xie Yuan immediately reminded Ye Naifa in front of him.
As he spoke, before anyone else could say anything, Xie Yuan straightened his bow and nocked an arrow on his horse, then tilted his head back towards the sky, and threw his hand away. The arrow flew directly high into the sky with the sound of breaking wind, but it was impossible to see it in the night sky.
No trace of the fall.
But the next moment, "Bang!!"
"Ah!!" There was a scream.
But no one questioned whether Xie Yuan killed people indiscriminately, because at this time, a large amount of white cold mist suddenly appeared behind him!
"Run! Move quickly!" Yennefer immediately shouted after discovering the situation, and then immediately tightened the reins to speed up the horse. Everyone did the same, hoping to escape from the pursuing enemy by wildly slapping the horse's butt.
However, Xie Yuan still maintained his position at the rear, masterfully controlling the horses, and sniped down the horse of the chasing Wild Hunt Knight first. "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The nine arrows were shot three times within three breaths, and they were quickly shot at the horses rushing up from behind. In just one shot, nine horses suddenly fell to the ground with arrows in their eyes.
"Good archery skills!!" The guardsmen in the team were all veteran soldiers, and they were shocked that the cavalry maintained such a precise hit rate. "Keep the speed! Don't make a sound." Xie Yuan said without even looking.
When he issued a warning, he just clamped the horse's belly with his thighs and used one thigh muscle to control the horse's steering, but his eyes were always fixed on the Wild Hunt knight following behind him.
At the moment he just spoke, Xie Yuan raised his hand and shot nine more arrows at once. Nine more horses were hit by arrows in the eyes and fell to the ground in panic.
This perfect hit rate finally frightened the Wild Hunt Knight, who could only stop attacking from behind and plan to outflank him on both sides.
Xie Yuan also quickly reacted to the situation next to him, but considering that the concentrated fire killing just killed a dozen people, the arrows in the arrow pot were consumed to the tune of seventy-seven or eighty-eight.
Now there is only one pot of arrows and the two arrows left in the previous pot, which means there are only twenty-two arrows. How to use them rationally is something Xie Yuan is now carefully considering.
So he chose to cross the line and snipe: any horse that dared to appear in his sight and was only one horse away from the team, Xie Yuan would immediately kill it with an arrow through the head.
Xie Yuan's ability made the entire chasing team suddenly become helpless, and they did not dare to get close at all - he shot down more than 20 Wild Hunt knights in a row, basically destroying most of the chasing team.
And in this cold foggy environment, no one could figure out how many arrows this sharpshooter had in his quiver.
After being frightened by Xie Yuan's magic shot, the Wild Hunt knights who were afraid that they would be the next victims had to stop approaching without any scruples.
But they didn't give up... but followed the cavalry team slowly, as if they were determined to find an opportunity to catch up.
"There is a lonely wooden bridge ahead!" Xie Yuanyun looked forward and suddenly reminded, "Madam, destroy the bridge immediately after you cross it, and I will deal with these beasts!"
"What are you doing?!" Geralt also saw the wooden bridge in the distance, but he thought Xie Yuan's behavior was stupid, "Don't do anything stupid!!" But Yennefer agreed with the plan: "No one
In the end, we will all die here, and we can only believe in him now."
As she spoke, she began to gather energy in her hands, and ordered from behind: "Follow me, or it won't be my responsibility to die!!"
Under the terror of life and death, the guards behind did not care about the horse's power, but directly slapped the horse's butt hard to keep up with the horse's speed.
Xie Yuan, on the other hand, deliberately slowed down his horse speed just to create a distance between the Wild Hunt Knight and the cavalry in front.
As soon as Yennefer's horse crossed the wooden bridge, she immediately activated energy towards the piers of the wooden bridge, and then "Bang!" the entire wooden bridge was engulfed by huge energy.
The volume collapsed.
The horses of the Nilfgaardian Guards barely managed to cross the collapsed bridge and happened to be located on a solid road, and galloped away with Yennefer, Geralt and others.
"Hey!!!" After Xie Yuan saw that the bridge was blown to pieces, he immediately tightened the reins, made the horseman stand up, and directly stopped the horse from moving forward.
After Xie Yuan patted the horse's ears, Xie Yuan dismounted calmly, and then faced the Wild Hunt knights who gradually surrounded him with an indifferent expression.
"You are a lowly and short-lived human being - we will let you live later to bear a sword from each of us!" One of the leaders of the Wild Hunt knights cursed and roared.
Others also waved their swords and began to spur their horses.
But Xie Yuan just pulled out two 90 cm long sticks to form a 1.8 meter steel rod, and then looked at the Wild Hunt Knight who started to charge over, showing a comfortable smile.
"Whoosh!" The next moment, Xie Yuan disappeared directly on the spot, and there was a loud "bang" sound from the Wild Hunt side. A puff of smoke suddenly enveloped the entire team of Wild Hunt Knights!
100000
Until half an hour later, Xie Yuan, wearing a black hooded cloak and two long sticks hanging on his back, rode slowly to the gate of Vizima City.
"Stop!" The black-clothed soldiers on the female wall of the city wall immediately shouted, "Who are you? What are you doing?!"
"I am a member of the cavalry team of demon hunters and sorceresses who should have just entered." Xie Yuan pulled down his hood, revealing his face and looking at the soldiers on the top of the city wall. "I was just on a mission to cut off the rear. Now the mission has been completed.
It’s done, I’ll come over to meet you.”
The soldiers guarding the city looked at each other and wanted to refuse to open the door until daylight. However, considering that the sorceress was carrying the emperor's order, they still issued a warning: "Wait here, don't act rashly."
Xie Yuan nodded, then got off the horse, casually holding the halter to the side, and then dismantled a large cloth bag from the horse's buttocks on each side. The horse seemed very relaxed and brisk after losing its weight.
snorted.
Xie Yuan, who was holding two big black bags, put the black bags on the ground and sat down to wait patiently. At the same time, he closed his eyes and meditated. "Crack!!!" The wooden door of the confinement suddenly opened, making a harsh sound.
Immediately, two guardsmen came over and looked at Xie Yuan. One of the guardsmen nodded to his companion, acknowledging that he was indeed there.
"Mr. Yuan, Mr. Yuan?" the leading guard called carefully.
But Xie Yuan was not asleep, so he quickly opened his eyes and saw the person who escorted Yennefer before, and smiled: "Finally, I've waited. Where should I stay now?"
"Mr. Yuan," the guard soldier showed a mocking smile, "You must hold on a little longer. His Majesty the Emperor heard about your return and asked to see you. You must come to the Temerian Palace with me.
.”
"Oh... okay then." Xie Yuan thought for a moment and then placed the two black bags in front of another guard soldier, "help me dispose of them, and 10% of the proceeds will be yours."
"What's in this?" Hearing that he wanted to help with the processing and was willing to provide a 10% handling fee, the guard soldier did not refuse, but he wanted to increase the price. "10% is too little, I want 40%."
"Yes, as long as you can handle it." Xie Yuan did not bargain. After all, it was a no-cost transaction. Even if he killed 90%, he would make a profit in Xie Yuan's opinion. "One bag is the heads of Wild Hunt Knights, and the other bag is
It's their weapon..."
As he spoke, he pulled the slipknot on the black bag, and there was a "crash" sound, and the sound of metal colliding was heard, and the blood energy in the other bag was immediately released - even the guardsmen who were veterans of hundreds of battles couldn't help but retreat.
step.
Then I took a closer look... There was indeed a human head wrapped in the well-made helmet. I don't know if it was the Wild Hunt, but it was indeed the head of an unknown military force.
At a rough count...there must be twenty!
"This...this is the Wild Hunt Knight who just sniped at us?!" The Guardsman, one of the parties involved, carefully looked at the heads in the black bag and asked suspiciously, "So they are still alive.
What? Why does it look so much like an elf’s head?”
"The Wild Hunt Knights are originally elves from another world!"
Xie Yuan showed his hands at this: "Unlike the elves here, the elves in that world can control the robbers leading to other worlds. However, they should have come here in the form of shadows, but now I don't know why, they
It seems that I can come here in my true form.
"This... this is too scary..." The two guardsmen were a little scared.
"Okay, don't be afraid. Take me to the Vizima Palace quickly." Xie Yuan urged, "I heard that you have to take a shower before you can be received by the emperor? I smell like blood!"
"Oh... that's right, yes, come with me." The leading guard soldier immediately woke up from a dream, and immediately pulled Xie Yuan involuntarily and ran towards the palace.
