From Demon Hunter to Lord of the Empire

Chapter 33: Dryads

Rann clearly remembers that in the original plot there was such a force sent by King Verdon to attack and kill passers-by to blame the tree spirit, and the words always implied Geralt: the tree spirit killed Ciri and went to find Ciri’s baron.

Even if they are not dead.

In the end, they are killed by the Demon Hunter Geralt, Druimoth Sath, and the Dryad.

So when Rann saw the scene, he immediately understood what was going on. I didn’t intend to believe them, and I didn’t intend to let them go.

The black wind was extremely fierce.

If he were a normal knight, he would happily set up his lance and horse and smash everything in front of him.

But Lane is not good at riding guns, and he can’t practice this thing in a year. He doesn’t need to.

The lion-like knight drew his long sword on his horse, and with his belt arm, he swung almost his entire upper body along with the sword.

The stocky man had a terrified expression on his face, obviously not expecting Rann and them to suddenly attack.

Before he could draw his weapon, he was split open in his chest by the oncoming sword light. The blade chiseled horizontally into the body of the stocky man from the chest and abdomen, penetrated through the back, and split the shoulder by the way.

The rain of blood in the sky suddenly sprayed. From behind, the stocky man seemed to have been bitten by a beast called “Sword”.

At this time, the soldiers who barely managed to have Verdon react, drew their weapons and tried to confront the enemy.

After cutting down one person, Ran’s momentum did not abate. A soldier roared and brandished his weapon and rushed towards him, brandishing his spear to slash Rann off his horse.

Rann tilted his body to give way to the attack, stabbing his longsword like a spear into the body of another Verdon soldier. At the same time, let go, let the impact pour into the opponent’s body, and also prevent your wrist from being injured by the reaction force.

Black Wind roared excitedly, it was originally a war horse, not a captive pet. The sound of swords clashing and the smell of blood made it a little faster.

With a “bang”, the head of the soldier whose lower body was pressed under the horse was trampled by the black wind like a watermelon. At least his pain was over.

Three kills in an instant.

Originally, the number of their own side was less than the other party, and one person was killed by the other party. The dead are all dead and terrifying. At that moment, the last two members of Verdon’s team turned and tried to escape.

“Idiot, he has no weapons anymore, go on! The squint-eyed soldier shouted.

His shouts were not unreasonable, but even more justified were their speed. The Verdons, who are still standing, did not ride horses and could not run.

The two deserters used their strength to get away from the battlefield, but Lan, who was riding the black wind, suddenly swept past the two fleeing and easily broke through the phalanx of the Verdon soldiers, blocking their retreat.

At this time, the attendants and scouts also rushed into the enemy’s camp on horseback, and began to meet the Verdon soldiers in front.

Rann rolled over and dismounted, met the two deserters and rushed forward. What he is better at is actually foot combat.

“He has no weapons. A soldier facing Rann muttered in a low voice, turning to yell at himself to cheer himself up, “He has no weapons!” Aaaah! ”

This is a rare swordsman, but his swordsmanship is really not sophisticated, at least not enough to face Rann alone.

Even in plate armor, Lane was more flexible than everyone present. He stepped forward to close the distance, and stretched out his right arm forward to hold the opponent’s sword and split his hands, weakening the power of the opponent’s slash. The left arm was handed directly to the opponent’s blade.

When he snorted, the specially thickened arm armor firmly blocked the opponent’s sword. Immediately after Lan got up, the foot wrapped in steel shin protection kicked directly between the opponent’s legs, and chain mail could not protect this place.

The poor soldier’s eyes suddenly burst out, and he instantly lost the strength to hold the weapon. Lane easily snatched his longsword, holding the hilt upside down and slitting the opponent’s throat with his backhand.

Lane weighed the weapon in his hand, and the evaluation was not as good as his own, but he could barely use it.

At this time, there was only one of Weden’s soldiers left in front of Ran, and Rann had a sword in his hand.

Coincidentally, this soldier was the same one who had laughed at Rann in a low voice before.

“Now you know why I’m a jousting champion? Lann asked.

The soldier stabbed forward with red eyes and spears in his hand. Ryan flicked the tip of the gun with his sword, rushed forward to close the distance, first splitting his torso from top to bottom, and then swinging it from bottom to bottom, leaving a bloody “×” on him.

Looking back, there were only three enemies left on the field at this time.

The squint-eyed soldier had long since discovered that something was wrong, and he kept fighting and retreating, relying on the cover of his comrades to throw himself to the side of the war horse.

A soldier was shot through the throat by Ace, and there were only two enemies on the field.

The squint-eyed soldier shouted to reassure the war horse, but the horse was too frightened to listen to the command. As soon as he gritted his teeth and forced himself onto the horse, he really rode well, and in this case, he could even cling to the back of the jumping horse.

A soldier is shot apart by two scouts with a spear, and then Levin slits his throat with a dagger.

The young man who knew the forest best about Blochlon muttered softly: “Trees are cut down by axes, and tree spirits will never cut trees, fool!” ”

The only living Verdon soldier left is the squint-eyed soldier.

The horse did not run, the squint-eyed soldier gritted his teeth and simply barreled the dagger into the horse’s hip, and the horse suffered pain and galloped wildly regardless of direction.

“Idiot, not in this direction, don’t run into the forest! The squint-eyed soldier shouted.

Seeing that the other party actually wanted to escape, Ace smiled contemptuously, took his bow and aimed at the target.

“Stay alive. Lane reminded.

At this moment, an arrow flew out from the dim forest scream, cutting a long, slow arc. It seemed to glide slowly in the air, and the arrow feathers swayed gently with the wind, and until the moment it hit, its speed and strength did not increase in the slightest.

The arrow feathers are pheasant plumes, dyed yellow with the soup boiled from the bark; The arrow of the arrow does not know what material it is, because it has been buried in the throat of the squint-eyed soldier.

The owner of this arrow obviously did not want the squint-eyed soldiers to invade the forest on horseback.

The impact caused the deserter on horseback to fly backwards, leaving the horse alone to sneak into the forest. Ace released his hand holding the arrow in surprise, and the arrow came out of the string, completing an unexpected tacit air relay. Unfortunately, the arrow that was originally aimed at the hip leg deviated from the target and was nailed to the chain mail at the junction of the enemy’s shoulder and back. The arrow did not shoot through, and there is indeed a set of chain armor anti-shooting.

The squint-eyed soldier smashed on his back to the ground and landed on his back. Only a muffled sound was heard, and the tip of the arrow embedded in the chain iron ring was pressed into his body by multiple parties, and his chest and back were immediately bleeding.

All of Wieden’s soldiers were wiped out, but the squad’s vigilance increased.

Only because of that arrow that suddenly appeared, because of the invisible enemy that appeared in the forest, an even stronger enemy.

Levin shouted, “It’s a dryad! ”

Ace angrily took another arrow and aimed it into the forest, embarrassed that he failed to fulfill Lord Count’s request.

“It’s okay, Ace, no need to live anymore. Lann comforted, looking into the jungle, “We have better now.” ”
