The silver light cut down, like lightning under the scorching sun, and struck towards the gentle area between the two sand dunes ahead, where the convoy would pass no matter how they walked. Rod Dick's heart seemed to constrict, and his pupils also constricted. Seeing this silver light, he realized that Gabriel's physical skills were at least level 7 or above, and he was a high-ranking great warrior. The ranks of the top warriors on the continent.
From the first car to the two sand dunes, there were sixty or seventy steps away. It was very difficult for Rod Dick's sword skills to do damage at this distance, and he hadn't found any hidden danger there.
Gabriel didn't have the time to care what Rod Dick was thinking at the moment. In fact, she found signs of danger in a farther place, and it was not until this distance that her sword skills showed effective lethality that she suddenly launched an attack, which caught people off guard. .
Jian Guang cut between the sand dunes, the sand suddenly sank, and several iron cables with barbs and spikes were exposed. Sure enough, there was a trap there, and if you fell in an ambush accidentally, the first car in the convoy would sink into it and block the entire team. Clouds of sand and mist erupted on both sides of the trap, and two men jumped out with a shield in one hand and a long-handled battle ax in the other, looking very embarrassed.
Holding a shield in battle and attacking with a long-handled battle ax in one hand requires extraordinary strength and agility, which is not something ordinary fighters can do. The two men covered their faces with turbans, and their clothes were the same light yellow color as the sand dunes. They had been quietly lurking under the hot sand for so long. If Rod Dick's rook fell, the two tomahawks, left and right, would be a call to death.
Gabriel not only slashed with a sword, but then flipped his wrist beautifully in the air, and slashed two sword lights to the sides, like two lines of shooting stars whistling left and right against the sand. Two flying sands rolled up, and dozens of yellow figures jumped out of the sand, and there were also iron chains flying out of the sand. Blood was splashed from the bodies of the people nearby, and the nearest iron chain more than a dozen steps away had been severed by the sword light.
Someone was injured, but no screams were heard. This was by no means an ordinary robber, but a well-trained elite soldier. The general outline of the front trap and the entire ambush circle is already clear. The front trap is located on the only way between the two sand dunes, which is exactly a place where the uphill turns downhill.
On both sides of the trap, facing the direction of the convoy, there is a team of people ambushing on the left and right. Under the sand, there are iron chains that can be stretched at any time, like a pocket. The ambush soldiers on both sides were not wearing armor, and they were holding sharp scimitars. It was a weapon commonly used by Assyrian warriors. It was usually used in cavalry battles, but it was also powerful in foot battles. There must be absolute speed when swinging a knife.
Seeing this scene, Rod Dick calmed down from the shock, roared and quickly gave a few orders. The personal guards he brought totaled sixty people, divided into five teams of twelve people each, two of which were cavalry.
The most elite team stood guard on both sides of Maria's carriage, unmoved by the battle ahead, and prevented anyone from taking the opportunity to attack the most important target. The other two teams did not move forward, but rushed to the rear to protect the rear of the entire team. The team leader also restrained the caravan behind from confusion. The two teams of cavalry, led by the team leader, have come to the front of the convoy and formed a battle formation. The soldiers in the front row are holding shields, and the soldiers in the back row have raised their javelins.
He threw the gun but couldn't, because Gabriel saw that Rod Dick had set up his battle formation, jumped off the shed and rushed forward with a ball of silver light, and those warriors with scimitars also rushed towards her . Finally, I heard screams, stumps and broken arms flew up one after another, the sand dunes were stained red with blood, and occasionally there was the sound of weapons colliding.
The scimitars of those soldiers finally blocked Gabriel's sword directly, and there was even the sound of the tip of the knife cutting through the armor, but Gabriel did not stop, holding the shield and dancing the sword all the way forward, and everyone in front of him was shocked. collapsed.
Rod Dick felt his eyelids twitch. He is also a warrior who has mastered sixth-level physical skills, and is at the peak of the middle-level warriors. However, as the lord of the cape city-state, he has an honorable status and has hardly experienced such a lonely experience. rush ahead. Gabriel's sword skills were so unstoppable that Rod Dick felt his blood boil when he saw it.
He finally understood why the Temple of Isis in Memphis had only sent this one warrior to protect Maria, the ordinary rogues and robbers, even the entire team was no match for Gabriel alone. Rod Dick thought to himself, if Gabriel did not come to protect Maria but to assassinate her, would his personal guards guarantee Maria's safety, even with the help of low-level magicians? Difficult, isn't it
The fact that the Temple of Isis can send such a warrior has left others speechless. But Rod Dick secretly complained for Gabriel. If such a high-ranking warrior is paired with a magician and two followers, it will be even more secure. Why did she come alone? Well, it's too condescending.
Gabriel rushed out like this. If a skilled magician was ambushed in the distance, it would be easy to suffer. Although it is impossible for the noble magicians to do this kind of road robbery, the enemy they met today is obviously not simple.
Rod Dick couldn't sit still anymore, he gave an order, and under the guard of the two squad leaders, he rushed out and followed behind Gabriel, but their speed couldn't catch up with Gabriel, who was killing the enemy all the way. .
Gabriel left behind the corpses of the enemies all the way, and he had rushed to a position more than ten steps away from the trap among the dunes, and there was no soldier holding a scimitar in front of him. The first two armored warriors holding long axes didn't rush over like the others, but stood there condescendingly waiting, they seemed to be the most powerful opponents.
At this moment, Gabriel's attention should have been completely attracted by the two warriors, one left and one right suddenly let out monster-like roars at the same time, and two people suddenly appeared from the sand dunes... No! If you look carefully, there should be three people, and there is another person standing behind the figure on the left.
But the two people on the left and right were too tall, and the last one was shrouded in the shadow of the one in front of him. It was hard to notice his silent appearance.
According to the measurement method on Tianshu Continent, the outer diameter of a divine stone is one inch, and ten inches is one foot. The two people are more than ten feet tall. Standing there, they are like two hills, and their arms are thicker than adult thighs. . Rod Dick recognized it. This was a mountain giant living in a country farther east of the Assyrian Kingdom.
Alpine giants live in the cold plateau. It is said that they are the descendants of legendary giants. In fact, they are not very different from ordinary people, except that they are huge. They can also learn taijutsu, which is not very flexible but possesses absolute strength. The armies of the nearby kingdoms also recruited and trained such people. As heavy warriors who used blunt weapons, the outstanding ones were astonishingly powerful when using giant hammers, giant axes and other weapons on the frontal battlefield where it was difficult to avoid.
The height of Gabriel only reached the chest of these two people. They wielded heavy hammers with handles. The round hammer head was embedded with sharp fangs and spikes. It came too suddenly.
Sure enough, there was a magician on the other side, that is, the third person standing in the shadows. It was he who used magic to hide the aura of himself and the two giants, and at this moment he launched the killing blow. Their ambush was very coincidental. If the convoy really fell into a trap, they happened to be on both sides of Maria's car when the first car fell. They should be the main force of the ambush. They could smash the entire carriage with one blow It is broken, but now it is used to deal with Gabriel.
Gabriel couldn't hide, and the sound of the wind brought by the giant hammer was enveloped in all directions. The throwing guns in the hands of the two squad leaders were thrown out, flying towards the two giant men on the left and the right respectively. Rod Dick also shot, his sword flew out, the tip of the sword had an inconspicuous halo in the sun, the speed was faster than throwing a spear, but it shot at the first person behind the giant man on the right. three people.
With an ear-shattering bang, Gabriel raised the shield in his left hand to forcefully hold the sledgehammer that fell from the left, and his feet and calves sank into the sand. He raised the sword in his right hand to meet another huge hammer. The silver epee looked so slender at this moment, as if it would shatter if it was lightly smashed.
But the sword was not broken, the giant hammer hit the tip of the sword almost without making a sound, the long sword was bent into an arc but did not break, Gabriel was muttering for something, and the two sacred stones on the sword came out Strange fluctuations. The blade of the sword suddenly straightened again, and a force that seemed to be able to distort space spread out, and the giant hammer slid aside. The giant man's body turned halfway involuntarily, the hammer clearly hit the tip of the sword, but it seemed to miss.
This is a divine art, and it is an intermediate divine art! As a samurai, due to the different cultivation directions, it is very difficult to systematically learn divine arts, and it is impossible to master divine arts of the same level. Gabriel was able to master middle-level divine arts, although it was performed through a sword blessed with divine arts, which was surprising enough!
There was only a clicking sound, accompanied by a strange cry, the giant man's left shoulder was dislocated, his hand dropped, and the hammer hit the sand dune. The spears of the two team leaders also arrived, and the spears fired at the giant man on the right flew close, as if stuck in something sticky, and was pulled by a force and plunged into the sand dune, the general missed by a few inches. Among them, it was the magician who protected the giant in time.
Another javelin hit the thigh of the giant man on the left. A third-level warrior hit with all his strength. The javelin could penetrate several cows, but at this moment it only penetrated a few inches deep. Hardcore. But this kind of damage is already not light. The giant hammer hit Gabriel's shield, and the center of the shield was deformed and radial cracks appeared. The giant man was also shocked and his whole body was numb. He was shot again and knelt on one leg with a strange roar. go down.
With a clang, Gabriel pulled out his legs from the sand and jumped forward, a string of sparks was created by the friction between the shield and the giant hammer. It can be seen that the crack in the center of the shield is slowly disappearing as if it can repair itself, but it only repairs a small part and then stops. The shield Rod Dick gave her was blessed by divine magic, but it couldn't withstand the hammer of a giant.
Gabriel took a step forward, and with a flick of his left hand, the edge of the shield swirled and inserted into the giant man's chest. This was an ax technique, and she used the shield as a battle axe. The giant man let out a scream, let go of the giant hammer and stretched out his hands to grab the sides of the shield in an attempt to grab it. Gabriel didn't compete with him, and as soon as he pushed forward, he let go of his hand, leaped forward to the right, and slashed a ball of dazzling silver light to the right.
The giant man subconsciously reached out to grab the shield in great pain, Gabriel simply abandoned the shield and added some strength, the giant man fell on his back with the shield stuck in his chest, a throwing spear still stuck in his leg .
The time of this encounter was very short, the spear shot at the giant man on the right missed, and the magician behind the giant man was casting a spell. Rod Dick's sword flew towards him, and also slowed down strangely nearby, making a series of sounds as if something was being smashed, and fell to the ground, but it happened to be inserted into one of his feet, This foot is nailed in the sand.
The magician let out a long hiss in pain, and then saw the desert and the sky in front of him spinning and dancing!
It was the sword light from Gabriel. It split off his head and flew out. At the same time, the silver light flashed across the waist of the giant man on the right. It took two breaths for the blood to burst out. come out.
That person is a mid-level magician, and his magic has reached the fifth level, so his status is already quite high. But he was very unlucky today. In order to hide his voice, he didn't launch an attack in advance. When a warrior like Gabriel rushed to such a short distance, when the giant man in front of him couldn't protect him, he almost became meat on the chopping board.
Don't forget that Gabriel can also use mid-level magic. Although it is only for auxiliary combat skills, it is not as comprehensive and systematic as a full-time magician, but it is enough to kill him in this case.
Gabriel ignored the giant man behind him, discarded his shield and raised his sword, and continued to rush forward. There were still two enemies with axes on the sand dunes ahead. The two soldiers, who seemed very confident at first, couldn't help showing a look of panic when they saw that the ambush in front of them was disintegrated so quickly. They turned around and wanted to leave but felt that they couldn't escape. While timid and hesitant, Gabriel had already arrived.
There is a battle between life and death, and the two shouted loudly and swung their long-handled battle ax alternately left and right, and there was a faint hazy halo on the blade of the axe. Gabriel rushed forward and suddenly accelerated, arching his waist and bending his legs, like a lion leaping forward, his body shrank down and passed through the sharp edge of the ax blade, and hit the soldier on the left with all his strength. body.
Her shoulder pads hit the shield, and the tip of the shield hit the man's breastplate, and the breastplate sank into a large piece, accompanied by the sound of bones snapping between the ribs. Gabriel's figure then bounced to the right, stabbing another warrior with his sword.
The handle of the ax was very long. As soon as the person on the right raised it, Gabriel suddenly came to the front. It was too late to strike down with the blade of the axe, so he hurriedly raised his shield to block the light of the sword. The sword light was suddenly extremely dazzling, as if it could tear everything apart, the shield was split in two, the sword penetrated into his breastplate, the tremor of the sword tip shattered the internal organs, and then pulled out.
The silver sword body was intact, not even stained with a trace of blood. There are several cracks on Gabriel's shoulder pads on one side of the armor, which are slowly being repaired and healed. She raised her sword and turned around between the dunes. The sun shone on her golden curly hair. Her beautiful face was so stern. There is no longer a living enemy.
Rod Dick and the two team leaders stood between the two fallen giants, looking at Gabriel with expressions of admiration and amazement.
…
On the hills in the distance, in the shadow of the strange boulder, there was a group of people lurking quietly, all showing expressions of disbelief. There are three people in the front, among them is the local governor and the governor of the Syrian city-state, Femiyan Xiao Mo, and standing on the left is his most trusted deputy, the financial officer of the Syrian city-state, Mister Morton, On the right is Kosman, the high priest of the Shiya Temple and the magician.
