The test site is at the foot of the western city wall of the town.
In addition to Roland, the spectators included Iron Axe, Tigu, Brian, and all the members of the Witch League.
Plus a fat pigeon squatting on the watchtower.
In order to avoid accidental injury by bullets, everyone must stand on the city wall and watch. The two chief knights, Carter Lannis and the super witch Ashes, will compete one-on-one within a range close to the city wall.
Carter's attire was not the knight's armor of the past, but was replaced by a close-fitting leather jacket that was easy to move. There was a specially-made holster belt around his waist, and a revolver was inserted on the left and right sides. There is also a short knife placed horizontally in the back waist position, which can be used temporarily for emergencies. But Roland knew that if he had to fight with a superhuman with a short knife, he might as well just admit defeat.
Ashes was still dressed as usual. A black robe covered her body, and her long black hair was tied into a ponytail and fell naturally behind her back, seemingly ignoring that it would create unnecessary weaknesses for herself. The only difference is the great sword, the entangled cloth has been uncovered, and the dark-brown blade has almost no light. As Roland expected, the surface of the sword was uneven and did not look like a well-crafted weapon, and due to lack of maintenance, rust spots had appeared on the part where the notch was cut.
The two walked into the field, and Carter kept adjusting his position until he was more than fifteen meters away from the other side. He was more than 80% sure about the fixed target at this distance, took out two pistols, and finally checked the bullets and the flares.
Roland asked Echo to imitate and amplify his own voice, "The rules of the competition are very simple: click until you reach the point, don't allow the head, you can admit defeat! As long as you don't die on the spot, Nana's healing ability can quickly restore you to your original state. Is there any more? Question?" He waited for a while, and then saw that there was no objection between the two, and then said, "After hearing the bell, the competition begins!"
Ashes looked at her opponent silently. As an extraordinary person, she followed her instincts to fight most of the time. After following Tilly, she also learned fighting skills from the sword masters in the palace, but she always felt that these skills were right for her. Very little help on your own. The other party was the chief knight by the prince's side, but he didn't carry the usual sword, shield or spear, and he didn't even wear armor. The weapon in his hand is extremely strange, but according to the shape, it is obviously not a melee weapon such as a dagger, so there is only one possibility. It should be similar to a hand crossbow, a long-distance strike weapon.
The crossbow is not a threat to the superhuman. This is the experience that Ashes has summed up in many battles. If it is a light crossbow, she can even catch the flying arrows with her bare hands. But looking at the prince's sworn appearance, the weapon in the opponent's hand will never be as simple as a bow and crossbow.
Her instinct was telling her that she had to get close to the knight as soon as possible, instead of waiting for the opponent to attack first. Therefore, before the start of the competition, Ashes inserted the front end of the long sword into the ground. This posture seemed to be harmless, but it was the most effective way to deal with the bowman.
At this moment, a crisp bell rang from the city wall.
Ashes started at almost the same time. She held the hilt of the sword with both hands and slammed it forward. The soil, grass roots and gravel rose up with the broad sword body and splashed in the direction of the knight, forming a smoke screen of mud and sand. .
The chief knight's response was also very quick. The weapon in his hand burst into flames and made a huge roar, but Ashes didn't see anything. Either the opponent didn't have an arrow, or the arrow was too fast to detect. She was more inclined towards the latter than the first, almost stupid mistake.
Under the cover of the sand smoke screen, Ashes launched a sprint from the side, and the distance between the two was shortened to half in the blink of an eye, and at this time the sand and sand smoke screen had not completely landed. Most people will subconsciously avoid the overwhelming mud, as long as she can interrupt the opponent to continue shooting, she will win most of the time.
But Carter didn't move his position, completely ignoring the sand that hit his face, squinted his eyes and aimed his weapon at the approaching Transcendent, pulled the trigger again and roared with the flash of fire, and took a step to the outside like a conditioned reflex. , the arrows that were thrown out have not yet been seen, and the knights did not make any preparations such as pulling the strings and winding the arrows.
This new type of weapon can probably be fired continuously, but if two consecutive shots are missed, the outcome is already divided!
The last ten steps were also in the blink of an eye. She raised her long sword in front of her, slammed her feet on the ground, and slammed into the knight like a bull. The impact would not kill him instantly, but it was enough to make him faint. Even if he survived with a strong will, the shattered bones in his chest would make him completely incapable of fighting. Just during this last breath, the opponent's third attack exploded in front of Ashes. She only felt a shock on her sword, a crisp buzzing sound, and then her right abdomen went numb, as if she had been severely grabbed by something. Bundle.
Almost at the same time, she slammed into Carter's chest, knocked him straight out, drew an arc in the air, and rolled to the ground.
Only then did she have time to check the injury on her waist. But as soon as she bowed her head, a strong sense of dizziness flooded into her brain. She staggered twice and almost fell to the ground. The power brought by the extraordinary magic seemed to pass away like running water, and her limbs became extremely heavy.
Ash supported her body with a long sword, the numbness of the wound had turned into a burning pain, and her waist seemed to be missing a part, and she could even see her bright red internal organs. Only by clenching your teeth can you not let yourself fall down.
…
In Roland's eyes, the entire competition took only four or five seconds. He saw the extraordinary witch charging from the other side while stirring up debris at Carter, changing direction once in the middle, and then slamming into the knight. Roland was surprised that Carter fired a total of three bullets before being hit.
Facing the extremely fast Ashes, I was afraid that it would be difficult for him to even stare at the opponent's figure, and he could still aim and shoot, which has fully proved that the title of Chief Knight is not a waste of time. It was normal for the first two shots to miss. In fact, if Ashes changed directions several times at such a speed, Carter would not be able to hit his opponent with a single shot. The key lies in the third shot. In the last five or six meters, Ashes blocked the big sword in a straight line against his chest.
If it is a crossbow, even if it is a heavy crossbow, it will be driven into the long sword at most, and it will have no effect on the extraordinary. However, the 12mm caliber ammunition and the steel warhead exploded with unparalleled power at this distance. At that time, Roland only saw black debris splashing, and a cloud of blood mist rose from Ash's body. When she stood still, the prince discovered that half of the opponent's waist had been blown away, as if being bitten by an evil beast, his intestines slipped out and hung on his side. There is a bowl-shaped gap in the lower part of the great sword, probably because the bullet hit the iron sword and passed through it. 's wound.
Even though she was seriously injured, she still did not faint, but insisted on standing on the field. The physical fitness of the extraordinary witch was indeed terrifyingly high. If it was the previous lead bullet or small-caliber warhead, I am afraid she would be able to eat it with her body. Maisie rushed to Ashes immediately and wanted to support her, but unfortunately she was too short, so she could only hug her legs and looked anxious.
Nana had already rushed to treat Carter, and Roland walked quickly to Ashes who was holding on.
She seemed to be waiting for this moment.
"I won..." After saying that, before Roland could react, Ash fell directly on his shoulder. (. If you like this work, you are welcome to come and vote, your support is my biggest motivation. Please come.)
