MTL - Mercenaries and Adventurers-v4 Chapter 209 , "Practice" on the "training ground" in the early morning of the contest (5)
The Kiel jumped up in the air, and immediately changed his bulky appearance in armor.
Hunting, the long sword in his hand, threw it with his hands when he jumped up, and the target was a bandit who was not very good at fighting. As soon as the long sword was released from his hand, it was thrown out by a powerful force and pierced the top of the bandit's head. His mouth opened, and the tip of the sword protruded from his chin from top to bottom.
The bandit just kept slamming the wooden handle and hammer to the ground, and fell directly to the ground and died.
But Kiel, who was empty of his right hand, was not without a weapon. When he jumped to the highest point, he drew out the magic dagger with his right hand, and said softly, "Hot!"
Immediately, a meter-long sword-shaped flame was ejected from the direction of the dagger's edge facing outward.
The next moment, Kiel descended from the sky with a magical weapon that was as panic-stricken as the sun.
-
With a loud bang, Kiel stepped on the ground with both feet, and by the way broke two or three wooden handles of heavy weapons that had hit the ground and hadn't been lifted. The flame in his right hand turned around and swept half a circle, and the three bandits on his right fell backwards with their upper bodies on fire.
Immediately, Kiel blocked the long sword stabbing towards his helmet with the shield on his left arm, and then twisted his body to chop out a sword of flame.
Will, who wielded the sword, fell back and got out of the way of the raging flames that could ignite the human body, but the other two bandits couldn't understand, and wanted to use the weapons in their hands to attack the knight.
It must be said that this group of bandits had great fighting courage, and they did not give up attacking against an enemy who was clearly incapable.
But the opponent chose the wrong one.
Compared with the heavy hammer with a wooden handle and the two-handed logging ax that need to be charged, the magic dagger in Kiel's hand can be swung much faster, especially the sword-shaped jet of flames used as an attack. They themselves look big, but they are There is no weight, and when it is swung, it simply follows the direction of the dagger.
The relatively light magic dagger was wielded by Kiel in an X shape in front of him. The quick and continuous swings were useless, but the flames that crossed from left to right ignited the two bandits on Kiel's left.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah—"
"Fire! Pain—"
"Help me! Help me! Help woo—"
The five bandits around Kiel, who were quickly picked up by the flames, threw themselves on the ground and rolled vigorously at this moment, but their messy long hair covered with pomade, and their greasy animal skin clothes burned blazingly together.
When someone called for help, he inhaled the flames on his body, swallowing the flames with his mouth and nose, and could not help crying.
Someone vigorously poured the floating dirt on the ground in the open space on his body, barely extinguishing most of the flames on his head and face before his skin was ripped apart, but the flames on his upper body continued to ignite all over his body along with the animal skin and clothes on his body.
Usually the waterproof animal skin clothes that are not good for one or two babies have become the key point to take their lives and combat effectiveness at this moment.
Mountain Wolf Barney naturally saw this scene, his eyes were about to burst, and he joined the battle himself with a roar.
However, the middle-aged and robust bandit leader, who held both a one-handed ax and a long sword, had never fought with magic weapons, so he subconsciously blocked the sword-shaped flames emerging from the magic dagger as a real weapon.
As soon as they fought, the tangible and intangible flame passed over the edge of the axe, the tip of the long sword, and quickly swept across the handle of the weapon.
Fortunately, Mountain Wolf Barney was wearing a cowhide glove, so he was touched by the flames, but it was hot but did not burn.
With a curse in his mouth, Barney the mountain wolf roared: "Run, he is not his opponent!"
But as his confidant, Will didn't listen to the advice and insisted on attacking the knight: "I won't run away again! Go to **** with me! You **** killer!"
He kicked up the handle of a two-handed axe from the ground. As soon as the long sword was twisted, the ax was spun. Then, with a flick of the sword, the ax spun and flew towards the knight.
But to his surprise, the flaming sword in the knight's right hand disappeared, and then the vacant right hand took advantage of the situation, and turned sideways to directly catch the two-handed logging ax that was spinning and flying.
Kiel put away the flames of the magic dagger and threw it from his right hand to his left hand behind the shield to catch it. Then he swiped with his right hand and caught the handle of the ax that flew in front of him.
Just kidding, the two-handed ax is the most proficient thing he usually uses, especially his water-crossing head can spin and fly around to kill enemies by itself, he has long been used to catching axes that spin towards him with his hands.
"What else can I do? Huh?"
Throwing the two-handed logging ax he had just received towards the fleeing bandit leader, Keel strode towards the sword-wielding enemy who was staring at him blankly.
The two-handed ax that was thrown obliquely caught up with the mountain wolf Barney who hadn't escaped two steps, skipped over his left knee from behind, and easily separated the bandit leader's left calf from his body.
He fell to the ground with a bang, and the bandit leader looked down at his left leg in disbelief.
"Huh, huh, impossible, impossible, I have to live, I can live!"
He himself froze for a moment, then threw away a weapon in his hand, quickly tore off the hem of his upper body clothes, and tightened his fist on the upper knee that spurted blood.
I don't know if it's blood loss or fear, but this bandit leader, who has always been confident and has a reputation for relying on cunning and ample planning, is turning pale at this moment.
On the rough face, cold sweat was oozing from his forehead and dripping down the ends of his hair that had been groomed.
After the bleeding stopped for a while, he grabbed the separated left leg and trembled all over.
Above his head, a nocturnal bird smelled fresh blood, flapped its wings and landed on a branch not far from the mountain wolf Barney, looked down with red eyes, and looked at the situation of that human indifferently.
-
In the open space, the two faced each other.
It is a bit wrong to say that it is a confrontation, because the young knight standing in the center of the open space clearly has an absolute advantage in momentum.
On the other hand, the master sword wielder who lowered his figure was extremely anxious.
A pair of glowing eyes in the steel helmet looked at him, which made Will realize that the opponent hadn't shown the strength to face him at all after fighting all the way from the hill.
"You **** arrogant killer."
He gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath.
"Assassin! Assassin! Assassin? I have a question. Why do you think that a knight like me can be a killer?"
Kiel threw the magic dagger to his right with his left hand, and the steel fingertips of his right hand twirled the gorgeous and dangerous magic dagger, and then inserted it into the dagger sheath on his right waist.
Will noticed the opponent's movements with his eyes, and then realized that the magic weapon before was just such a small dagger.
This discovery made his heart sink. He didn't know how much preparation and magic props the enemy still had.
It seems that he can only die tonight.
"I have a request."
Will finally changed from the expression of hatred before, but pursed his lips tightly, timidly speaking his last request.
There was a soft hum from under the knight's visor, and then he stretched out his right hand and opened his palm: "Come back from hunting!"
The buzzing sound of the long sword vibrating sounded, and then a long sword pierced through the head of a bandit broke free from the 'shackle' of the human head, bounced a few times on the ground, and finally bounced hard into the knight's open palm .
"Mum, it's almost there, if only I could fly back directly."
The knight on the opposite side was talking to himself, which made Will couldn't help but speak again, his voice was a little louder: "I have a request!"
"put."
The other party's rude tone made Will stagnate.
Then he said: "After I die, please bring my bones or ashes back to the family. Even if the family cemetery is destroyed by you, please send my bones there."
The face under Kiel's mask twitched, and he felt that this person did indeed have some mental problems.
First, they indiscriminately slandered him as a killer, a joke, you ¥# is just a robber who robs, and you still have the face to say something about him here. Then the bandit leader asked him to run, but he didn't run away, insisting on confronting himself, the knight. Now, the bandit leader didn't make it, and he didn't.
Finally, there is a strange request, saying to take your ashes back to some inexplicable family cemetery.
"Are you crazy?"
Kiel then waved the long sword casually: "It seems that human beings live in the forest for a long time and do things that are unconscionable, and there will indeed be mental problems."
"If I didn't see your superb swordsmanship and wanted to practice my hand, I would have hacked you on the hill before to avenge my new subordinates."
Keir raised his chin and finally said: "Crazy, what do you call you, just do it, and practice two hands for me before you die?"
The contemptuous attitude of the young knight completely angered Will, who had put down his dignity request before. He clenched the hilt of his beloved long sword tightly, then raised the long sword with gritted teeth and pulled it back, lowered his body, and arched his legs back and forth.
He assumed the most standard backhand fighting posture.
"You will pay for your insult," he said.
Kiel chuckled, and glanced at the bandit leader who was trying to climb far with only one leg left not far away: "Hurry up and come, show your true skills."
Inhale, exhale.
The young swordsman let go of the grievances and enmity brought about by the destruction of his family, and the troubled life of fleeing and wandering for many years.
All these experiences and emotions were suppressed by him, leaving only the purest emotions and thoughts.
It doesn't matter whether the knight in front of him is a killer sent by a rival family or not. He seems to have returned to the past. He was in the world-renowned swordsman academy. peaceful time.
The dark forest was hidden, and the bright training ground appeared in front of his eyes.
Surrounded by bandits who were burned and howling, it was the voices of discussions from outstanding children of various families, men and women wearing straight swordsman uniforms.
"The Guntenil family, Will, please enlighten me."
Keir froze for a moment, then chuckled: "Kendall Expeditionary Force, Joe Keir."
The tip of the longsword hunts and kills the ground, and taps the floating soil on the ground with the master's breathing.
As if sensing the opponent's aura, Kiel placed the shield in his left hand in front of the left side of his body, and he himself turned sideways, standing with his legs sideways.
The two kept breathing like this for several breaths, until the moment when a bandit next to him who was burned by the flames grabbed his throat burned by the flames and suffocated to death, the battle began.
Keeping in mind the martial arts he had learned indiscriminately, Kiel moved ahead with small steps and launched an attack.
The tip of the hunted sword slashed across the ground, leaving a long and thin trace.
Facing the attacking 'Master of Swordsmanship', the young Will kept his teacher's teaching in mind, and did not dare to face the enemy head-on. Instead, he avoided its edge first, and found the weak point and vital point of the powerful enemy through fighting.
He squatted with both legs slightly, and then turned sideways to his right side and flashed quickly, opened a little distance, and then used a small jump to speed up and change direction.
Will is defending the perimeter, so when facing the 'Master of Swordsman' who is attacking the inner perimeter, he needs to move more to create a consistent relative orientation with the opponent's slight turn. Move faster, one step or even two steps ahead of the opponent to catch the opponent's turn is not in time.
But Keir is not the defensive side, he is the offensive side. The lunatic enemy who told Will to avoid the battle and even find a favorable offensive position by moving in a circle at a long distance, how could he let the opponent do what he wanted.
Glancing at the ground, Keel raised his foot and kicked a heavy hammer with a wooden handle on the ground in front of him towards the next moment of Madman Will.
"mean."
"Young Will" yelled, but the "Master of Swordsmanship" in front of him just laughed mockingly: "How can it be called despicable when it comes to tactics."
He stopped moving, let go of the heavy hammer with a wooden handle whistling from his side, but as soon as his fast-moving body slowed down and paused, the 'Master of Swordsman' on the opposite side charged straight up.
"You look down on me too much, look at the trick!"
Keir was a little surprised. After the lunatic Will yelled, he quickly swung one and slashed at his hunting sword, but this sword was just a cover. The right leg is the real purpose.
The hunter who was swung away could not cut off the opponent's legs in time, or force him to retreat by chopping the opponent's head.
Keir had to take half a step forward with his left foot, and the shield was ready to be kicked.
boom!
Raising his eyebrows, Kiel felt that it was nothing more than that. The opponent's strength was not small, but it was only at the level of ordinary people. Kiel suppressed his strength at the level of ordinary people, and easily blocked the opponent's attack. The shield was kicked and smashed. Did not cause him to back off or lose his balance.
But this is just one part of the opponent's ultimate move.
Keel suddenly felt that the shield was not being kicked, but was being trampled down with force. It turned out that the lunatic Will was going to follow his shield to occupy a high position and attack his head and shoulders!
"snort!"
Keir couldn't make this man what he wanted. Although this move was quite unexpected, it might work against ordinary people, but not against knights. With his left arm, he violently lifted the shield upwards following the opponent's stepping, and with his right hand, he also loosened the hilt of the long sword directly, clenched his fist and punched hard behind the shield.
boom!
If you want to step on my shield and leap to attack, then I will let you step on my shield and go to the sky! go you!
"Why?"
'Young Will' was delighted at letting 'Master of Swordsman' fall into crisis. After all, once his long sword hit the vital point of the opponent in training, he would be able to directly announce the victory of the training.
But what the 'Master of Swordsmanship' did next surprised him.
The opportunity for the opponent to step on the shield to borrow strength from him is not to passively bear the force, but to use force to push him up, send out the force, and send him up!
'Young Will' was sent several meters into the air in one breath.
At this moment, he could clearly see the smiles in the eyes of the boys and girls looking around. At the same time, some whispers reached his ears.
"Look, the Guntenil boys are just like my sideshow clown, giggling."
"Fly, but will he be strung on the long sword by the swordsman master next?"
"Haha, like a clumsy fat chicken, the Guntenil family's face has been completely lost by him."
'Young Will''s face was flushed with embarrassment. He was eager to explain something, but before he could say anything, the boys and girls from other families who were the same age as him blocked their ears with their fingers and laughed. Watch him wait for the funny ending.
No, it can't be like this! can not be like this! can not be like this!
In an instant, the clean and tidy academy training ground disappeared, replaced by a dark and ugly forest.
The mocking words and figures turned into charred bandits writhing in pain on the ground.
The 'master of swordsmanship' also turned into a knight killer who arrogantly humiliated him.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!!"
'Young Will', no, in his twenties, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com A young man who escaped from an exterminated family in a certain southern country in a state of embarrassment, roared, and furiously pointed down the love sword in his hand Throw out.
The weapon falls one step ahead of the owner.
But the young knight who had been waiting for the battle easily bounced off the metal shield, and the swordsman's furious blow only left one more impact scratch on the silver-white shield.
Then, the love from Mother Earth captured every tiny human who wanted to fly.
Will was empty-handed, roaring, furious, and violently waved his fists and kicks in the direction of the fall.
Fortunately, Kiel's long sword was taken off his hand just now. Facing the young man who also fell down with his bare hands at this moment, Kiel spat in disdain.
Boom! First use the shield to block the opponent's falling kick, and then flip the shield forward, the lunatic-like guy was unexpectedly not thrown away, but used ten fingers to hold the upper edge of Kiel's shield tightly, After stabilizing for a while, he headed into Kiel's head wearing a steel helmet like a beast.
"Crazy, definitely crazy!"
After swearing, Kiel charged his right fist, and in the shock of the helmet's impact, he swung firmly, knocking Will, who seemed to be in a confusion of thoughts, flying.
puff.
Will was hit on the left arm, and the huge force brought his whole body to fly sideways. Even though he tried his best to grab the edge of the knight's shield with ten fingers, he was still hit hard, like a broken piece of garbage. It spun and fell on the soft floating soil.
His left arm was twisted, and Will, who was thrown to the ground, stiffened his neck, and his eyes were turned upwards, revealing large whites.
He chanted the name of a family loudly, and the names of men and women, then rolled his eyes and fell to the ground, fainting.
