MTL - Summoning the Holy Sword-Chapter 3 Attacked
"Hello, Mr. Carter."
Rhode looked up and greeted the man in front of him, smiling.
"Thank you for your help."
"Hands-free, don't worry."
He is of strong build, tall, and has long red hair with a messy combing back. Judging from his physical characteristics, he should be a Lakater born in the northwestern sandy land. One long, one short, and two long swords hung quietly on the sides of his waist. The perseverance and examination revealed on the angular faces could prove that this man was not an ordinary character.
While Rhodes was watching each other, Carter was quietly looking at the man in front of him.
If you look at it from the surface, it is easy to think of him as a kind of aristocratic noble child. It is no wonder that his thin figure, pale skin, and the long, woman-like face Faces and this costume, no matter how they look, are not like adventurers who go out for adventure, but more like those rich second-generation people who are pursuing excitement and leisurely boring.
But Carter thinks that this young man doesn't seem so simple. The reason is that the strange and mysterious magic circle on the back of his right hand. As a spiritual master, Li Jie can feel the magic from above, which shows that it is not a fake, but with Carter's years of experience, he has rarely seen anyone directly engraving the magic array on his body. of. This shows that the identity of this young man is not simple. And from the previous brief conversation, Carter noticed that the young man's attitude was not humble, neither arrogant nor humble, and his expression was very calm. I heard Li Jie said that he woke up from a coma in just ten minutes, and he could grasp his current situation so calmly and calmly. In this regard, he was better than those arrogant noble children Much stronger.
"I heard, you're from Oriental Yamahara?"
"Yes."
Rhode nodded.
"So, where are you going?"
"I just traveled around."
Rhodes shrugged.
"I am an adventurer, and my free life is my adventure. Of course, please rest assured that I will not cause you any trouble."
"That's fine."
Now that Rhodes is on the road, Carter isn't saying much. They are currently on a mission and naturally don't want new things to happen. So after talking a few more words to make him feel better, he didn't say much, and soon left. After all, there are still many things he has to do as the mercenary commander, and he can't always be there. Time is wasted here.
The next time is also bland for Rhodes, but the food that Lijie brought him makes him a bit interested, although it is just ordinary white bread and jerky, and Rhodes has eaten many times in the game, but that They are all "fake eating". They only have the effect of restoring the character's life and soul power, and they have no taste at all, and they can't fill their stomachs. Now he finally experienced the taste description of white bread and dried meat in a handful of food notes, but it was a fresh experience.
But I have to say that the taste is really not as good as described in the comments.
"How do you feel? Does the wound still hurt?"
Sitting next to Rhodes, the blonde girl looked at the young man in front of him with a worried and serious expression, and a little worried eyes fell on his shoulders, a little intolerable.
"It's okay now."
Rhodes said, holding his left hand at the same time, the pain from the sternum was not as strong as it was at the beginning. At the beginning, he felt even a little difficult to breathe, but now he is much better.
"That's fine."
After hearing Rhode's answer, Li Jie's expression of tension was relaxed a lot.
"But you still have to rest. When we get to Deep Rock, the conditions there will be much better. Maybe your injury will heal soon."
The girl's expression was very serious. Although she was lying in front of herself as a stranger she had just met, but she did not notice such a subtle idea when she looked at her expression.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, this is what I should do."
Speaking, Li Jie stood up, her golden, fluffy ponytail swayed along with her movements, giving a playful and lively feeling.
"Then ..."
Li Jie's words did not finish, because at this moment, the hull suddenly trembled.
The girl's body shook, and she almost fell to the bed. Fortunately, she reached out at the last moment and helped out the head of the bed. The two looked at each other, and each saw a hint of doubt in each other's eyes.
Although the floating ship is a ship that operates with the help of strong winds, and the sky is not like the ocean and there are no reef vortices, it is not necessarily dangerous. The current situation is obviously not normal.
"I'll go and see. You can rest here and rest assured."
After Li Jie whispered, she immediately turned away and closed the door. Looking at her back, Rhodes opened his mouth with tears and smirk, but said nothing. You look older than her anyway. Is it necessary to talk to yourself in such a coy tone?
But the next moment, a figure passing by the window, made Rhode's complexion instantly serious.
He turned his head slightly and stared out of the window. Soon, another three or four green figures flickered past, and at the same time, a low sound seemed to appear.
"Uh-"
When he heard this voice, Rhodes sank inside.
They are in big trouble!
At this moment, the deck is already chaotic.
"I didn't expect that we would encounter this group of **** things."
The red-haired, mercenary commander holding the two swords stood at the forefront, looking at the green figures flying around the floating ship solemnly. Their appearance looks like a snake with bat wings. It is about one meter long. Although the slightly thin body gives a weak and windless feeling, it is exposed from the open mouth. The sharp fangs can overturn this conclusion in the shortest time.
Wind snake.
"It looks like we broke into the territory of the Wind Serpent."
The fat businessman was hiding next to the head of the mercenary, his face pale, and his handkerchief wiped the sweat on his forehead.
"Damn it, that sly Bick, I knew it, I knew that **** would point me to such a fairway, but for so little money there must be a problem! This is murder! When I go back, I must let him Know me great !!! "
"Let's talk before we leave the circle!"
Carter interrupted the nearly hysterical roar of the fat businessman, and looked out. There were hundreds of wind snakes surrounding the merchant ship. At the beginning, he could also order his men to use crossbow attacks to try to scare off the group. monster. However, the spirit of "seeing death as home" of the wind snake really exceeded his imagination, or the death of the companion actually inspired the fierce surnames of these monsters. At this moment, they have occupied the outside of the deck and started to intrude inward. The mercenaries had long since thrown the bow and crossbow in their hands, wielded their weapons and began to engage in close combat with each other.
"You hide inside and tell the captain that we want to leave here as soon as possible!"
Carter pushed the fat businessman back into the captain's room with his backhand. Then he took two steps forward, his long sword waving a piece of snow, and chopped a roaring wind snake to the ground, but soon, The second one rushed up again.
Too few staff!
Carter frowned, he swept across the deck, and only six people were left for this mission. Although the merchant ship itself was also guarded, their experience was not enough. During the wave attack, the guards of the merchant ship fell by a third, and now only half of the staff are left. Seeing their panic, I am afraid they will not be able to support it for too long. Looking at those terrible monsters, Carter's face was solemn.
He is not without experience with Wind Snakes, but this is the first time he has faced such a quantity, which also makes Carter feel a little nervous. He stepped forward a half step again, his body flexed a half circle, and then the two-handed sword suddenly split to the side, chopped heavily on the wind snake's body, against the splashing blood, the wounded wind snake was heavy. After falling to the ground and making a few uncomfortable growls, this turned into a cold body.
Carter raised his head and glanced around subconsciously, and then his heart jumped suddenly.
"Lijie! Watch out !!!"
The girl did not react immediately.
She had just withdrawn her hands just after treating a toxin for a mercenary. Because of excessive consumption, the girl was still a little savvy—although she rushed to the deck in just a few minutes, but several people were already connected and injured. As the only spiritual master with healing powers, Li Jie naturally assumed responsibility.
After hearing Carter's warning, the girl turned back blankly.
Then, what she saw was just a wide open mouth, exposing her big mouth with sharp fangs.
At that moment, the girl's blood was congealed, she stared blankly at the wind snake in front of her, her brain was blank, she didn't know how to react. In her eyes, Li Jie could clearly see the sharp, cold fangs, and the flesh-colored inner wall, and even the smell of smell was so clear and audible.
At this moment, a hand suddenly came out from behind, grabbed Li Jie's collar, and pulled her away at the stern moment.
