When he grasped the long sword tightly and rushed towards the ferocious monster, Gao Wen no longer felt nervous, hesitant, or afraid. If he had to say something, it would be just a little bit of trance and unreality.
He still clearly remembers the moment when his plane crashed.
He still clearly remembers the hundreds of thousands of years that he hung at the height of this world.
He has not yet adapted well to the identity of Gawain Cecil, who fell from the sky.
However, at this moment, he clenched an ancient family long sword, and swooped at a strange monster who didn't know whether it was a demon or an undead.
boom!
A huge impact came from the blade, and all the distracting thoughts in my mind disappeared in an instant.
Dodging the monster's sweeping claws with an almost instinctive reaction, Gawain twisted his upper body half a circle, and the swinging blade streaked across the air, slashing fiercely at the monster's shoulder. While chopping down with the blade, he tried his best to mobilize the power contained in this body, and guide that power to the long sword in his hand.
The faint red ray at the root of the blade burst into bright red light under the stimulation of power, and spread rapidly along the blade like a flame. Under the scorching heat, even the surrounding air was distorted.
The three-meter-high monster felt the threat from the high temperature of the blade, and suddenly fell back with an agility that was completely incompatible with its huge size. As a result, Gawain's slash missed by such a narrow margin.
It was the first time that Gao Wen released this magical supernatural power with his own hands. It was inevitable that there would be a moment of excitement in Gao Wen's heart. It was probably this moment of excitement that made him fail to grasp the timing of the first attack. The rhythm, but soon he adjusted his mentality and refocused his strength on the long sword.
The skills and knowledge from Gawain Cecil in memory are indeed callable, and this body has not deteriorated to the point where it can't exert its strength at all. Although I don't know how much strength it can exert, but at this moment, Gawain A lot of confidence has been added.
He began to immerse himself in the battle, and tried his best to convert the combat experience in his mind that didn't belong to him into the power he could use as quickly as possible.
On the other side, Byron was already struggling.
This middle-level knight is considered one of the best masters in the Cecil family. His combat career before serving the Cecil family also allowed him to accumulate extraordinary combat experience. However, he had already consumed too much when the monsters attacked the castle before. His strength, coupled with being eroded by the monster's strange magic power, and the hidden injuries in his body further reduced his combat effectiveness, which made the knight's 10% combat effectiveness only 40% to 50%.
Facing the monster's continuous onslaught at this moment, he could only hold his long sword tightly and strive to remain undefeated. While saving his energy as much as possible, he tried to find the opponent's flaws.
Rebecca gathered her magic power, a scorching fireball the size of a head flew out from the front of the staff, and collided fiercely with the shadow arrow of the spell-casting monster in the distance, making an earth-shattering explosion, and then she took a breath, and immediately Noticing the dangerous situation on Byron's side, he immediately shouted to the territorial soldiers beside him: "You three, go help Byron!"
A soldier hesitated: "But Lord Lord..."
Rebecca shouted while condensing the new fireball technique: "Our side is fine for the time being - but if Byron falls down, it will be over! I order you to go as the lord!"
The three soldiers had no choice but to take orders and fight against the terrible monster together with Knight Byron.
Gao Wen was gradually immersed in the battle, and the memories and experiences in his mind that did not belong to him were being rapidly transformed into his own, and his ability to control his new body was improving. This process brought him full achievements When he woke up from this state of immersion, he found that the monster in front of him had been crushed and beaten by him.
Those distorted bodies that are surging with "sludge" are not invulnerable, they will still be injured if they are cut down, and they will still die if they are cut too much. Although they are infinitely powerful and have advantages in size, as long as they master the method of confrontation, human beings will be able to fight. The body can still destroy them.
This is the experience left over seven hundred years ago.
The monster's sharp claws swept across the top of the head, Gawain leaned down, and stabbed the long sword into the opponent's thigh with his backhand. Taking the opportunity, Gawain shouted to Byron: "Try to attack their abdomen and lower limbs, don't worry about the chest, these guys don't have a heart!"
Then, taking advantage of his opponent's loss of balance, he twisted around to the opponent's side and rear, raised his long sword and stabbed at the monster's lower back: "Apart from the abdominal cavity, their other weak point is at the back! The lower back!"
Hearing the advice from the ancestor of the Cecil family, Byron immediately lifted his spirits. With the cooperation of the three soldiers, he quickly restrained the monster's movements, and at the cost of being pierced by sharp claws while battling his shoulder armor, Drilling directly under the opponent's crotch, he turned his sword and hit the vital point.
And one second before Byron finished off the enemy, the monster in front of Gawain also fell down heavily.
After finishing off the enemy, Gawain immediately raised his head and looked at the monster in the distance who was using the Shadow Arrow and Rebecca's fireball to bombard him, but just as he was about to rush to the front, the monster suddenly let out a shriek. roared, and then collapsed convulsively.
Hu Po's figure appeared behind the monster, spinning a poisoned steel dagger in each hand: "I'm good at poking chrysanthemums."
Rebecca put down her staff, her cheeks were slightly flushed due to the continuous casting of spells, she took a few breaths to calm down, and then seriously corrected: "My lord ancestor is talking about the back waist, not the chrysanthemum."
Amber spun the dagger in her hand twice quickly, and she didn't know where she hid the dagger. She stepped over the monster's body, and curled her lips as she walked over: "Cut, I don't have any sense of humor at all."
After the monsters died, they began to disintegrate rapidly. The flowing muddy substances on their bodies first stopped flowing, and then gradually dried up and hardened, and a large number of fine cracks appeared. As these mutated "flesh and blood" Corroded and fallen off, they will turn into a huge, twisted bloody skeleton at an extremely fast speed.
Gawain stood next to the monster he had killed, looked down at the process, and said to himself, "So these things attacked Cecil's territory..."
Hetty looked at him curiously: "Ancestor, do you know the origin of these monsters?"
Gawain had already shown a deep understanding of these monsters in the previous battles, and even gave Byron advice on how to fight them, so of course he couldn't hide this, and he didn't want to hide it himself.
"You may still meet them if you stay here. Let's go to the secret passage. There are things in the secret passage to suppress those monsters. They won't go in easily," Gawain said as he walked forward. "I can talk to you about the details on the road." Say it."
After getting into the ancient underground passage and advancing for a while, Gawain broke his silence: "I did deal with them back then—in fact, we mainly dealt with those things back then. You should know the collapse of the Gondor Empire and the first The history of the second development, right?"
"Of course I know." Rebecca nodded immediately. These histories can be said to be a compulsory course for her as a child of a nobleman. "More than seven hundred years ago, there was only one human kingdom in the Loren Continent, and that was the Gondor Empire located in the center of the continent. According to historical records, it was the most powerful empire on the mainland at that time, and even the Silver Empire established by the elves in the southern part of the mainland did not dare to easily make an enemy against it. It triggered a catastrophe known as the "Dark Tide", and the outbreak point of the disaster was in the hinterland of the Gondor Empire—almost overnight, the capital of the Gondor Empire and one-third of the country were swallowed by the Tide, and Disintegrated by the raging elemental power..."
"It didn't happen overnight. In fact, this process lasted for nearly a month—the court mages of Gondor didn't do nothing in front of the demon tide," Gawain interrupted, and then motioned for the other party to continue, " But judging from the results, it’s pretty much the same, so go ahead.”
"Oh... oh," Rebecca blushed a little, and said more cautiously as if her parents were checking her homework, "After that, the demon tide in the hinterland of the Gondor Empire continued to spread to all directions, and finally completely destroyed the entire country. This was the collapse of the Gondor Empire. After that, as the Ether Sea gradually calmed down, the power of the demon tide began to decrease, and the surviving Gondor remnants began to rebuild civilization. It is no longer suitable for human survival, so they left the ruined empire under the leadership of a group of pioneers, and began to develop in the four directions of east, west, north and south. This is called the second development in history. Your ancestors are the most famous pioneers of the year. One of the knights."
"Well, the history is good," Gao Wen boasted casually, "then you should have heard that even though the tide of magic is over, there are still a large number of monsters born in the tide of magic in the ruins of the Gondor Empire. Monsters were one of the greatest threats to humanity during the Second Frontier."
Hetty opened her eyes wide: "You mean..."
"That's right, it was those things that fought us back then," Gawain sighed, "They were born from the tide of demons, and they had human-like outlines, but they were definitely not human beings. After the collapse of the Gondor Empire, a large number of them Monsters sprang out from the ruined hinterland of the empire, and continued to spread in all directions, chasing and killing the survivors at that time, so the first half of the second development was not so much a journey of development as a journey of escape. And even later We have broken away from the wasteland of the empire and established a new country on the edge of the continent, and those monsters have not stopped, they are still coming from the direction of the wasteland of the empire, frequently attacking the defense lines of the civilized world... the first ten years after Ansu Liguo Over the past year, I have dealt with them almost every day."
Rebecca opened her eyes wide, as if she had been deeply attracted by these ancient and legendary stories: "Ah, after ten years of the Ansu Li Kingdom, those monsters will no longer appear?"
Gao Wen smiled, stretched out his hand to stroke the girl's hair, and showed a smile that looked at a silly roe deer: "Silly boy, your ancestor will die after that..."
Rebecca: "…"
