Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 516: Offensive and defensive battles in Pafield (X)

Thorne reached out his hand in despair, raised the sword in his hand, and tried to resist the attack in front of him. In his eyes, the figure of Rhodes had completely disappeared. The only thing left was the silvery, cold light. Its trajectory. Time seemed to be paused at this moment, and Tohn could even feel his rapid breathing and heartbeat. The unprecedented, as if substantive killing intention, seemed to be holding his heart by the cold, invisible hand, even so For a moment, Ton felt as if his heart had stopped beating completely.

At the same time, the world in front of him was completely fragmented.

Rhode's figure emerged from the shadows, and the dark and dim shadows swayed wildly, as if they were part of the young man's body in front of him. In fact, it was the same. He appeared behind Ton under the re-condensation of the black shadow, regardless of whether the soldiers armed to his teeth would attack him. But now the steel cans around him apparently didn't think about it. They just widened their eyes in horror, looked at the body of Rhode's commander and swayed a few times, then lost their balance. The front fluttered—and in the process, his body finally lost the ability to bond, and the upper body from the head to the waist began to spread out as if stacked by blocks, and then the entire person In this way, several pieces of meat "flopped" and fell to the ground.

Rhode looked up, and the soldiers looking to the side, who touched his eyes, could not help but step back. They had never seen such a weird killing technique. They could guarantee that they had commanded Officials were surrounded by groups, and no one could go over their protection to the commander. But the man did it. He didn't know what method was used to cross the crowd and easily killed the commander.

Feeling good.

It wasn't until after the last ray of shadow merged with Rhodes that Rhodes nodded in satisfaction.

Before leaving the Atonement Land and heading to the top of the Cloudy Mist, considering the next battle, Rhode finally chose to put all the skill points obtained after killing the level raised by the Demon Duke into the shadow dance level. Ascension, and with his dedication, Rod ’s [Shadow Dance] sword proficiency level has finally increased from “c” to “a”. In this way, only in terms of power, Rod The power of swordsmanship has broken through the boundaries of mortals and entered the realm of legend. As a result, he gained the shadow sword dance [Shadow Dance], which is the core skill of sword dance.

With this technique, Rhodes can assimilate himself with the Phantom Plane for a short period of time to carry out short-range shuttles and attacks through the half-plane channel, which is also the most terrible and powerful technique of the Black Elf. Not to mention [Dance of Shadow] not only has instant teleportation, transfer, but also has the opportunity to interfere with the opponent's casting and protection. To some extent, this level of swordsmanship is no longer just an interference of the physical situation, it has even been promoted to the level of elemental essence.

However, Rhodes is not surprised by this. He is well aware that those black elves who are really proficient in shadow dance are also masters of the power of shadow. At the top level, [dark dance] swordsmanship can not only be transmitted and transmitted in an instant. Transfer to assassinate enemies, and even shape your own body through the power of the shadow, and even summon some creatures living on the shadow plane to attack. Reaching this level has actually existed like a mage. But unfortunately, due to the professional limitations of the summoning swordsman, he could not upgrade to the top swordsmanship, which was a regret for Rhodes.

Thinking of this, Rhode sneered, and then his wrist flipped. Soon, in the eyes of the soldiers, the man in front of him suddenly turned into a dark shadow again, as if he had lost the support of the entity, a dark shadow. Dispersed and disappeared under the prestige, disappeared.

Seeing this scene in front of them, the soldiers were even more panicked. They looked at each other and had no idea whether it was reality or dream, but soon they had no need to consider this issue.

"Everyone, prepare ..."

Mafa raised his long sword high. Even the dumb man who faced his enemies several times had no change in the expression on his face. He just looked at the enemy in front of him coldly, and then pressed hard. Waved his sword and pointed forward.

"attack!!"

The next battle was unsurprising.

The commander was dead, and the Southern Army that had lost its backbone naturally had no reason to continue fighting. In addition, the mercenaries of the Starlight Guild were fierce, as if a crazy bull was hitting the rear camp, so it did not take long. The soldiers broke down completely, quickly retreating and fleeing the battlefield. Not only them, but even the frontline army that had originally attacked the fortresses on the top of the clouds and mists realized what was happening in the rear, and they quickly made a judgment-soon, the sound of the retreating horn sounded in the night, and the orders The soldiers fled, leaving only the body.

2:15 in the morning.

Rhode turned his eyes away from his arms. The rear camp in front of him was full of scars, blood, corpses and burning fire everywhere. A terrible messy scene, the earth shrouded in darkness once again fell into tranquility and tranquility. If you didn't look at the corpse in front of the fire, no one would think that a brutal battle had just happened here.

"It's boring."

Rhode looked at the body that had fallen under his feet. It was still a young man. He looked about the same size as Rhodes. He had short blond hair and was young. He should have been full of spirits. The face of enjoying youth and life was pale at the moment. He His neck leaned diagonally on his shoulders, revealing the bones and muscles inside. The young man opened his eyes like dark glass **** so wide, and blood remained in his mouth. This is a living life, but for Rhodes, his existence is nothing but a level based on experience as a number—Now Rhodes has discovered that as long as he fights under his command, he will Gain considerable experience. However, in the face of those guys who are less than 25 on average, Rhodes has limited experience.

Li Jie stood behind Rhode, looking at the scene in front of her, silent.

The instinctual excitement generated when she stepped on the battlefield has disappeared. After the battle, the girl looked at the dim battlefield in front of her eyes, but at the same time, she felt an unprecedented release of force. She looked along Rhode's eyes and stayed. He stared at the corpse in front of him, but couldn't say a word. Although as a mercenary, she has been used to life and death, seeing more corpses. But the meaning between corpses is different.

She is not the young man who has not been killed because of the conflict. The mercenaries are always enthusiastic, and if they do n’t speculate, they will fight. It is not that she has not seen the bodies of the ragged gangsters and thieves. They may have their own reasons, but in the end they still have to use their lives to atone for sin.

In any case, those corpses have reasons for their existence.

And what does this mean now?

What do the people who die here want to protect? Not for your own dignity, not for your own desires, or for your own glory. Why did the people who originally belonged to the same country wave their swords on the battlefield and slaughter each other? What's the point of all this?

Li Jie couldn't understand, she couldn't understand anyway, why those people in the south must seize power, even at the expense of so many people's names. This war will continue. At that time, some people will die in the south and north. But no matter how many people die, they are all citizens of the Principality of Munn. What use is it to kill each other?

Just then, the girl heard Rhode's answer.

"It's boring."

She looked up and looked at the man beside him in surprise. Only then did he find that Rhodes had retracted his gaze and never looked at the corpse under his eyes any more, as if it was just **** there. His expression was so indifferent, which made Li Jie feel a little cold, and it was not the first time she felt a similar feeling from Rhodes. Although Rhodes performed well most of the time, he was polite, full of pride and self-confidence, although Ping Yue always had a stern face. But after spending long time together, you will notice the gentleness hidden behind the cold mask. But occasionally, Rhodes will show another side of him-as if this young man does not belong to this world at all, he is just a hurrying passer-by, having no interest in everything in this world. In the eyes of human beings, the human beings in this world simply exist like bugs, which is not a concern.

This discovery made the girl feel very disturbed for a time, but because Luo Deping rarely revealed his side, Li Jie also consciously sealed it in her own memory. But now, in this deadly battlefield, looking at the corpse in front of him and Rhode's eyes, Li Jie could not help getting cold.

Then she realized that she didn't know anything about this person who had been with her for a long time.

"The enemy has retreated, sir."

Just when Li Jie was in a trance, suddenly Mafa's voice sounded, which made the girl almost scream, but she immediately covered her mouth, and then returned to God to stare at the man in front of her.

"How about the casualties?"

"Please rest assured, several brothers were injured, but not serious. After treatment by the spiritual masters, they will soon recover."

Hearing Rhode's inquisition, Malfa humbled his head and answered. At the same time, there was a helpless smile in his heart. In his opinion, Rhodes is a very decisive and determined boss, but there is a problem that is very bad, that is, he cares too much about the casualties of his men. Although it is said that as the chairman of the mercenary guild and a baron, it is natural to care about his subordinates. But Rhode's approach was a little too much, he would ask about it after almost every fight, and even showed some tedious and mother-in-law.

However, because of this, Rhodes is more respected by those mercenaries. Who cares about it verbally, but if you say that every time, after each battle, you will care about the same problem. What they considered in their hearts was that the so-called soldiers died for their confidants, and it is no wonder that these mercenaries are now so surrendered to Rhodes.

"Very well, get ready, we'll retreat."

When Rhode returned to the top of the cloud and met Garcia again, the fortified commander of this seemingly gargoyle fortress was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and seemed to be more shameless and embarrassed than before. He was covered with blood all over him, and he couldn't tell whether it was the blood of the enemy or his own blood. Garcia showed a bitter smile when he saw Rhode's arrival, then reached out and greeted Rhode.

"Oh, I'm sorry I can only greet you in this way, Mr. Rhodes—haha, it's unlucky. I didn't expect you to see me so embarrassed."

"I've never seen your noncowardly side, Mr. Garcia."

While answering Garcia's question casually, Rhode turned his head and looked at the fortress carefully. I have to say that the top of the cloud and mist fortress performed much better than he thought. So far, at least, this seemingly worn out fortress doesn't seem to cause much damage, except for a bit more worn out. And inside the fortress — well, this ghost place was originally tattered, frankly, Rhodes himself could not see which ones were left over from previous battles and which were originally there.

"How is it going?"

"Fortunately, although we lost some manpower, we barely managed to hold it. Thanks to you, otherwise, those guys continue to besiege, it is also a big trouble for us."

Hearing Rhode's inquiry, Garcia waved his hand and smiled helplessly. Then he groaned, stood up from the ground, and patted the soil on himself.

"How is your condition, Mr. Rhodes? Although it was my suggestion, I also know that these guys are not easy to mess with."

"Our luck is pretty good. Those guys who put them behind just happened to be the Lions Legion. As a result, those guys were frightened when they saw me. I took the opportunity to kill their commander, and these idiots will be again. There was no more resistance, and he soon surrendered and surrendered. "

Facing Garcia's inquiry, Rhodes shrugged his shoulders and responded, and when he heard Rhode's, Garcia smiled, then he nodded to Rhodes.

"It seems you are more fortunate, Mr. Rhodes, frankly, I am very envious of you. If I can have so many powerful subordinates, I'm afraid it won't be ..." Here, Garcia paused for a moment . "Then I should rectify my men, Mr. Rhodes, and we'll see you later."

Having said this, Garcia turned and left. Without knowing why, Rhode looked at Garcia's back, but felt that he seemed very relaxed and comfortable-obviously, this is really a strange thing.

After that, there was no movement in the Southern Army. According to Joey's report, Rhodes began to split after the retreat of the remaining troops. This was war. It ’s easy to say what you have won. If you lose, you ’re in trouble. And Rhodes has also learned from Garcia about the broken thing between the three major legions. I want to come and have not won the fort now. The three major legions have suffered heavy losses. They must be anxious to shirk their responsibilities and blame each other. . Right now they don't have the time, energy or manpower to launch a new round of attack on the top of the cloud and fog. This is certainly a good thing for Garcia and Rhodes.

But it's not just good.

Although the Southern Army's attack was finally repelled, the garrison at the top of the cloud was also heavily damaged. During the battle last night, they lost a full third of their manpower. If it were not for the spiritual master brought by Rhodes, it would save a lot The soldier's life, I am afraid it is difficult to say whether they can leave half of them in the end.

In this case, the manpower is definitely insufficient. If the Army of the South gathers its forces and launches an attack on the top of the clouds again, even if Rhodes and Garcia join forces for another surprise attack, it is probably irresistible. So the day after the battle ended, Garcia sent a quick report to the city of Gold and asked for reinforcements.

And this time, in response to Garcia's request, Her Royal Highness's response was quick, and it didn't take long for her to respond. It was a good thing for Garcia to mobilize two thousand soldiers to the top of the clouds to help them guard the fort, but it was not a good thing for Rhodes.

The reason is simple. On the list of transfer orders, he saw a name that he absolutely did not want to see.

Gaya.

This is a slightly different and unique name from the name of the Duchy of Munn. But when he saw the name, Rhodes's first reaction was to stand up immediately, then turned and walked out of the fortress, how far to go. This is not because of how terrible this man named Gaya ... or, to most people, she is harmless.

Rhode is no stranger to the name Gaya. In the game, she is a Lydia musician, but this is just her superficial identity. As the player has always said, "Since it is the Four Heavenly Kings, then there must be five people", Gaya belongs to this "fifth person". On the surface, she does not have any regular officer positions, but Rhodes is very Clearly, as one of His Royal Highness's most proud deputies, Gaya is the captain of the "Holy Sword" Guard and a "Holy Family". She has the strength of the legendary midstream at a young age, and can even Speaking of strength, Arashi's Swordmaster of the Light Council is not necessarily her opponent. Gaya's natural surname is "tone". It can be said that in the game, this is a very strange variant surname.

Of course, for Rhodes, this is not the most terrible, because these have nothing to do with him.

But the next big trouble for him.

That's Gaya's origin.

She was born in Dongfangshanyuan, and is also the sole representative of Dongfangshanyuan's forces among the Kings. For her, the plants and trees in Dongfangshanyuan are no longer familiar.

For her, it is not a difficult problem to break Rod's identity.
