Chapter 42 A tense escape

Klein held his nose and glanced at the dirty ditch, then looked back at Victor, as if he was unwilling to go down and open the iron fence, fearing that the disgusting sewage would contaminate his noble body.

Victor understood what he was thinking and taunted him maliciously: "Since you chose this way to escape the city, you have to wade through the water anyway. Will you no longer be able to smell the smell later? Besides, I don't think you are better than that."

Sewage smells better.”

Hearing this, Klein was slightly startled, stretched out his hand and pulled his hair that was like withered grass, and his eyes widened.

But soon, he calmed down, coughed pretentiously, and said: "No, you don't understand. Among the things I hid, there used to be tools to open these iron fences, but now they are gone. What can we rely on?"

How can you break such thick iron?"

Victor glanced at him, smiled slightly, reached out and opened his own scene door, and a ball of Samadhi True Fire popped up in the air, burning through the iron fences in front of Klein in an instant.

The flames floated on the water and did not go out. They even kept evaporating. Klein was dumbfounded.

"What is that?"

Victor did not explain to him, and he would not try to boil all the water in the ditch, because that would waste a lot of time, and he could not afford the side effects of Jingmen.

He controlled the flame to extinguish and was just about to jump into the water when he was discovered by a guard on the city wall.

The other party shouted an alarm in a strange language, which instantly attracted the attention of many guards.

"Oops! He must have seen the fire you lit just now!" Klein suddenly panicked.

However, Victor was not as squeamish as he was, and jumped directly into the smelly ditch.

When Klein came back to his senses, he could no longer see his figure. In the end, he could only cover his nose with his sleeves and jump in.

They crossed the city wall as quickly as possible, and when they were about to exit, Victor stopped Klein and cast a water spell on him, as well as one on himself.

The archers on the city wall had already aimed at the place where they came out, but after waiting for a long time, no one appeared from the other side of the canal.

Then, more than a hundred meters away, the figures of Victor and Klein appeared due to the disappearance of the water spell. Only then did the archers react and draw their bows to shoot at them.

The farther the distance, the lower the hit rate of the bow and arrow, but if dozens of bows and arrows are fired at them, it is still easy to hit them.

As expected, each of them was hit by an arrow, but the sword tip failed to penetrate their bodies. They only made the sound of gold and iron hitting each other, which was blocked by the golden curse cast by Victor.

"Okay, now it depends on your luck, follow me!"

Victor started trotting with his Sky Eye and ran along the place where the air was richer in the earth. Together with the Yang talisman he drew for himself, this escape journey was blessed with luck.

The second round of bows and arrows fired at him did not hit him, and Klein, who was running away after him, only had one arrow pierce through his messy hair, scaring the guy so much that he almost collapsed to the ground.

Now they have almost escaped the effective shooting range of the bow and arrow. Even if the third round of arrows is fired again, the accuracy will be greatly reduced.

Victor slowed down, feeling a little tired. After all, his physical strength was not as good as before, and he couldn't stop panting.

Klein is not much better. He is pampered and rarely does strenuous exercise.

Seeing their escape speed slowing down, the city gate suddenly opened, and a dozen cavalrymen rushed out quickly.

Those long-legged lizard-like mounts galloped towards them at extremely fast speeds, even the fastest horses in the world could not keep up with them.

The distance of a few hundred meters passed by in an instant. When Klein noticed the pursuers from behind, he immediately wailed, his face full of despair.

"Damn it! How could these barbarians have such formidable cavalry?!"

After shouting, he urgently asked Victor for help, but when he turned around, he suddenly found that the person next to him was missing.

"Wait a moment!"

The cavalry came over with torches and surrounded Klein.

They raised their spears and pointed them at the panicked noble.

But then, a cavalryman's body burned so fiercely that the horse under his crotch was also frightened.

A cavalryman's loss of control can cause a chain reaction. Those strange mounts fall into chaos and throw the cavalrymen on their backs to the ground.

Klein took the opportunity to sneak away and hid behind a rock not far away, trying to escape the cavalry's search under the cover of night.

In his ears, he heard the horses screaming outside and the cavalry cursing loudly. He did not notice that a knight suddenly rushed towards his hiding place from another direction.

When he noticed the movement next to him, the cavalryman had already jumped in front of him, frightening him so much that he almost fell down.

However, after he stabilized, Klein saw that the man riding on the back of the weird lizard was actually Victor.

"Come up!"

Victor only shouted, and Klein reached out to him as expected, flipping to the back quickly.

It turned out that Victor's plan was to attract cavalry from the city to hunt them down, so that he could take the opportunity to seize the opponent's mount.

The fire spell just caused a commotion, and it took a while for the Uruk cavalry to stabilize the lizard mounts. Victor took the opportunity to snatch one away, and rode him over to take Klein away with him.

This kind of mount is easier to tame than Victor imagined, and basically does not repel strangers. Originally, Victor planned to kill one and resurrect it with the earth spell, but he found that he could quickly tame it by riding on it and using the horse-taming skills, so he didn't

Killer with pain.

Uruk's cavalry also stabilized their formation. Seeing that Victor and the others had snatched their mounts, they became even more angry and chased after them, shouting.

With a mount, Victor would not be caught up so easily. Just when he thought he could get rid of him, a cry similar to that of an eagle suddenly came from the sky.

He looked up and saw several black shadows flashing under the moonlight.

Yes, the moonlight, that thing suspended on the top of the giant structure that looks like the sun, actually emits a cold light like the moon at night, simulating all the days and nights in this country.

Victor was in a trance for a while, and a guess arose in his mind. He thought of a possibility about this country, but he had no time to think about it carefully, because a bird-man-like monster appeared in the sky and was already rushing towards him.

He pulled the reins sharply, turned the direction of his mount, and narrowly avoided a heavy blow from the huge weapon.

Victor had seen these winged humanoid things during the day.

At that time, they were flying in the air in formation. From a distance, they thought they were weird men with wings. But now that they are closer, they realize that these strange humanoid creatures are actually so huge, up to four to five meters high!

"There's a glow above!~!" Klein tugged tightly on Victor's clothes around his waist, "It's the sky guard of Akkad!"
