When really experiencing such a thrilling battle. Only Ryan can truly understand the originally illusory word "death". How close are you to yourself.
He breathed heavily. The body can barely stand. He stared stiffly at the fat man who fell to the ground as a corpse after being shot in the head for several seconds. But he only felt that cold sweat was soaking his clothes rapidly.
At this moment. It was only then that Ryan understood the muffled "poof" in his ear just now. It was the cracking sound of the arrow penetrating through the eyeballs and skull; and the warm feeling on my neck. It was because of the blood and brains splashed by the opponent.
The arrow almost hit the fat man's head next to Ryan's cheek. So until this time his legs were still trembling slightly. The inexplicable fear made it extremely difficult for him to even move his feet. Ryan couldn't help thinking: If he had moved his head to the right just now. I'm afraid he was shot through the head. It's not that fat guy anymore...
Two of the three assassins died so far. Regardless of the process. At this time, the remaining assassin obviously became the focus of everyone's attention. One of the two mercenaries was seriously injured and fell to the ground. The remaining one was holding the ax and ran towards Sally. And the temple guards not far ahead were also running. But because the armor is too heavy. Both of them were still some distance away from the assassin who was chasing Sally. At this moment, he could only watch helplessly as the other party was getting closer and closer to Sally holding a long sword...
"Tat-tat-tat..."
Footsteps echoed in the porch outside the church. Sally, who was rushing forward, ran desperately. Her figure ran between the stone pillars. The assassins chasing from behind were extremely fast. It took almost a few seconds to catch up behind Sally—but Sally ran erratically around the pillar. After the assassin got closer, he found that Sally's figure was always blocked by the stone pillar. As a result, he didn't know where to chase. Therefore, it seems that it is only two or three steps away to catch up. But always blocked by stone pillars
And it gave him a headache even more. It is the arrow that strikes again after a moment of stagnation
If we were at the door of the church before. He was surprised at the unbelievable rate of fire after being forced back two steps by the opponent's consecutive arrows. Then the extremely accurate arrow calculated by the "advance amount" at this time. It made him feel terrified... All his intentions seemed to be seen through by the other party
The arrow clearly shot in front of him. If the legs that can be stepped out are not retracted. The knee will definitely be shot directly in the next moment. He tried to stop. After avoiding this arrow. But he found that the second arrow was already flying towards the position where he was about to stop after decelerating—he wanted to dodge back in a hurry. He just moved halfway. Then he saw that the third arrow had drawn a parabola and shot towards his head...
So he had to swing his sword and chop the arrow again. And watched Sally run away again.
And after this wave of arrows was blocked. He ran a few steps and was just about to catch up with Sally. The terrifyingly accurate arrow appeared again. Annoyed and irritated, he stopped again and again...
There are more than 20 stone pillars in front of the church. Seeing is about to run to the end. Sally heard a "cracking" sound behind her. Take the time to look back. It was found that the enemy had been dragged down by the incoming arrows. But there was not much surprise in my heart. But it's just that incomparably fulfilling and long-lost... sense of security.
The burning pain continued. The fear in my heart disappeared inexplicably. Because Sally knows. Such archery can only be done by Roddy
She couldn't see the face of the guy in the shadow of the mansion on the third floor in the distance. But he could vaguely see a short bow that was raised steadily and the arrow that was quickly set on the arrow rest and shot out.
familiar action. familiar frequency. Familiar momentum. It is also because of this. She just started to choose to use the tactic that Roddy once taught her in Roddy's shooting field of view, "circling the pillar"—
Look at this time. The method did work.
But she also knew that things did not end so easily. The assassin was able to block all the arrows without being injured. This shows that Roddy's ability is limited. Think here. Sally turned her head and prepared to continue running towards the last few stone pillars ahead. And the assassin behind him seemed to be ready to fight for his life. After getting rid of the arrow rain, his movements suddenly accelerated. The figure rushed over like a phantom. It's actually faster than before
"Potential Stimulation", a skill that temporarily increases movement speed, can only last for ten seconds. After the end, there is a side effect of "hit rate decreased by 10%". But at this moment, the assassin killed Sally on the spot with one blow. there is no other way
Sudden change of speed. He believed that Roddy would not be able to accurately judge the advance of the arrow immediately.
Arrows flew in the distance again. He glanced slightly. He immediately found that the flying arrow really flew too far in the wrong direction. Even if I continue to run at this speed. The arrow will definitely fall in front of him
In such an instant. If an arrow does not pose a threat. It often means that the chance of the assassin succeeding is greatly increased
Holding the long sword at this moment, Sally saw that she chose to bypass the stone pillar to the left. His body immediately turned accordingly. Three steps across. There was less than four meters between the two of them. He raised his arm in preparation for a lunge. His eyes were fixed on the heart position on Sally's back. The feet on the ground have already begun to gather strength—
However, it is at this time. The arrow that Roddy shot has arrived.
"Snapped"
The arrow did not hit the assassin. But it shot directly at the stone pillar in front of the assassin's body.
What happened immediately looked like a fantasy to the onlookers—the arrow hit the curved surface of the stone pillar but was not nailed in because of the angle. Instead, it changed its direction of travel like a bullet slid away by a helmet. After twisting 15 degrees, it shot at the assassin's arm impartially.
"puff"
Even if the strength is high. But at this moment, the assassin couldn't make any response at all. Immediately pierced the arm by the arrow. Then the whole body was knocked out of balance by the horizontal force. After staggering a few steps, he fell to the ground
Such a fall. It means that the whole plan is doomed.
The temple guards and mercenaries who rushed over almost immediately rushed up and held down the guy whose arm was no longer able to hold a sword. The priests driven out of the church released the "holy bondage" again. Then, he used the "Attack Recovery Technique" one by one to rescue the guard who was hit by the sword and check the mercenary's injury.
Ryan, Booker and others also came back to their senses. Get involved in what you can help. The nuns widened their eyes in horror. Hiding behind and watching the mess in front of the church...
Immediately afterwards. Bishop Benjamin, who finally arrived after being notified by Chris, walked out of the church. He turned his head and looked at the assassin who was lying on the ground and struggling to the side. He narrowed his eyes slightly.
His appearance almost immediately stabilized the flustered atmosphere at the scene—the old man was wearing a black teaching robe at this time. Although no one explained anything to him. But just glanced at the bloody ground, Ryan with his face covered in blood, and the guards and mercenaries who fell on the ground. He looked at the bodies of the two assassins again. You can roughly understand what happened.
And when he turned around and walked towards Sally's direction. The sudden change of powerful aura really made the priests and nuns standing beside him feel great pressure
He kept walking towards the subdued assassin. But the "advanced recovery technique" was continuously released in his hand. One after another, golden rays of light appeared between his palms like strafing shots. When he finally looked at the assassin who was still struggling. There was a little hostility involuntarily between the brows.
"Bondage."
It is different from the "holy bondage" shouted by priests. The bishop is just a simple word to read out. Three golden chains that were much thicker than the "Holy Restraints" appeared on the assassin's body. "Bang" tied him up firmly
"Martial law monastery. Clean here. Don't leave traces."
"All those involved in the battle stay behind. Disperse the believers."
"Immediately notify the temple guards in the armory. Send all the troops to protect this place."
Orders were issued one after another. The priest who followed immediately turned around and went to do it. The existence of the "backbone" of Benjamin is indeed an irreplaceable powerful figure in the monastery. He continued to scan his surroundings. When I saw the arrow shaft that was cut off in that place. His eyes narrowed slightly. Then he suddenly looked at the third-floor mansion in the distance—
And at the same moment. Not far away, Sally, who stopped and gasped for breath while holding on to the stone pillar, saw the bishop looking towards the place where Rody might be hiding. Just thinking about how to explain his identity in my mind. The next moment, I heard a muffled "poof"...
The assassin trapped on the ground by golden chains. Just like that, I was headshot four meters in front of Sally.
"bold"
Benjamin was completely enraged by this blatant arrow. He shouted loudly. He raised his hand and pointed to the distance. The powerful aura filled with divine magic made Sally, who was seven or eight meters away, feel great pressure. She was even more shocked and raised her heart to her throat
Why? Why would Roddy do this? He wasn't just pissing off Bishop Benjamin. It is even possible to become enemies with the "Rosicrucian"
Sally's mind was "buzzing". I was a little dazed all of a sudden. But Bishop Benjamin stared angrily at the mansion in front of him. However, after searching for a long time, they did not find the target. In the end, he had to release a level 3 "sacred shield" in front of him. With a gloomy face, he walked towards the assassin who had been shot dead. Asked the guard in a low voice: "Carry the corpse to the back first. I will check it later."
"It's His Excellency the Bishop."
The guard also had many wounds on his body. However, the divine magic that Benjamin cast at will has made him almost healed. At this time, he didn't care about his embarrassment at all. He got up and went to find someone to carry the body.
When the bishop looked up from the shot dead body. The fierceness in it began to gradually disappear. And when he turned his face to Sally. The serious face is full of guilt. He didn't say any other words. He just said softly, "It's my fault, Sally."
"I'm very sorry… "
