Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 22 Sacrifice
Rhodes, who saw the werewolf for the first time, was not very scared or excited. After all, he had seen many ghouls who had been dead for a long time and were able to stab people with swords.

"I didn't expect there to be werewolves in the Death Cult," Harvey said.

"Are werewolves not common in the Roman Empire?" Rhodes asked.

"Yes, this is the third time I have encountered werewolves in my fighting career for so many years." Harvey replied, "A group of mages who have gone on the wrong path experimented with humans and wolves, and finally used a special A werewolf is created by a magic ritual. A werewolf created by a successful magic ritual can control itself to transform between a werewolf and a human at will, and retain human wisdom. But the failure of the ritual, this kind of werewolf can only remain forever That half-human, half-wolf form lost its mind and became very bloodthirsty."

In addition to werewolves, there are also vampires in this world, which Rhodes heard in the tavern before.

I once heard an adventurer say that he found a cave in the wild and prepared to rest in it for a long cold night. As soon as he entered, he saw a group of people sitting around a dining table, and on the dining table was a human body. The dead body, and the people around the dining table were all staring at him, the unexpected guest, with their mouths full of blood.

Then he ran desperately to the outside of the cave, and finally he managed to escape.Afterwards, he went back to the city and tangled with a group of companions to find the cave, only to find half of the unfinished corpses and the daily necessities of the vampires. After seeing this tragedy, a group of them did not eat meat for a month.

When the original owner heard this story, the adventurer also vividly narrated the bloody scene at that time. What was eaten and left half of his bloody face was still staring at him with wide eyes, which became a paragraph of the original owner. Nightmare of time.

But now Rhodes thinks it's a little strange, isn't it more appropriate to call those people cannibals than vampires?

Just when Rhodes recalled, "Silent Knight" picked up his two-handed sword and slashed at Rhodes.

This sudden move frightened him, he quickly rolled a few times on the ground, and finally found that the "Silent Knight" was not attacking him, but something hidden beside him.

Only then did Rhodes realize that an assassin dressed in pitch black had been sneaking beside them just now, waiting for the opportunity to make a move.

The black-clothed assassin was forced out of the shadows by the "Silent Knight". The black-clothed assassin held a matte black dagger and began to fight the "Silent Knight".

The black-clothed assassin is obviously much more powerful than the "Silent Knight". He uses that dagger to accurately block every attack of the "Silent Knight", and he can also take advantage of the interval between the attacks of the "Silent Knight" to leave a few holes on his armor. Road traces.

But the black dagger of the black-clothed assassin couldn't cut through the full-body plate armor of the "Silent Knight", and he didn't dare to take the risk of stabbing, for fear that the dagger would not be drawn out in time.

Harvey quickly reacted and attacked the black-clothed assassin from another direction. With his clever steps and the black short sword in his hand, the black-clothed assassin seemed to be able to handle the joint attack of the two knights with ease.

Rhodes held the "Wise Men's Calamity" and didn't know whether he should go up to help. The combination of the two of them made Rhodes feel that he had no attack angle. If he went up rashly, it might affect their attack rhythm, which would be a waste of help. .

At this time, he thought of the magic effect of his long sword, and used the magic attached to the long sword on the assassin in black.

A blue light appeared on the body of "Wise Men's Calamity" and the black-clothed assassin. The black-clothed assassin was affected by negative magic, so his attacks became more fierce, and he started to lose his life, but there were more flaws.

Soon, his left shoulder was cut by the sword of the "Silent Knight". Seeing this, Harvey wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue him. A golden flame ignited on his two-handed sword. Crying "For justice!"

The black-clothed assassin turned around and received the attack with his injured left shoulder, and stabbed Harvey's throat with a black dagger in his right hand.

His left arm was completely cut off, and the flame attached to the two-handed sword directly scorched his wound, which instead helped him stop the bleeding, and his dagger pierced into the dent made by the werewolf, from The back of Harvey's neck sticks out.

He drew back the short sword quickly, bringing with it a stream of Harvey's blood, which gushed from the breach in the armor after he drew the short sword.

Harvey opened his mouth, but didn't make a sound, only a few mouthfuls of blood froth gushed out of his mouth, and then he knelt down powerlessly on the ground, his head drooping.

The "Silent Knight" cut the black-clothed assassin in half the moment the black-clothed assassin drew out his dagger and turned around. The black-clothed assassin held back the pain but fell to the ground with a muffled groan and did not die.

He threw the dagger at the "Silent Knight" with the last of his strength, and the "Silent Knight" knocked the dagger flying with his sword, raised the sword and roared, and stabbed it at the black-clothed assassin on the ground. The sound was very sharp, not like It was a normal man's voice.

The heart of the black-clothed assassin who fell on the ground was pierced and he was killed immediately.

The "Silent Knight" dropped his sword, went to check on Harvey's injuries, and found that Harvey was dead. He hugged Harvey's body and began to sob softly.

Rhodes watched all this happening not far away, and blamed himself very much. The battle just now from Harvey's throat pierced to the death of the black-clothed assassin happened too quickly, and it was over before he realized it.

He picked up the dagger of the black-clothed assassin. The dagger was very sharp and had short serrated teeth. It would cause a lot of wounds if it was stabbed on the body. It might have magic on it, which is why Harvey died so quickly.

It would have been nice if he hadn't used the magic attached to "Bane of the Wise" on the black-clothed assassin just now. Unexpectedly, after using it on him, he directly gave up his conservative style of play and was going to trade injuries for lives. In the end, he could only trade lives for lives .

The more Rhodes thought about it, the more he blamed himself. Harvey is a very good person. Although he is a nobleman, he doesn't have a big aristocratic airs like Sven.In order to save more lives, even strangers, he would risk his life and finally sacrifice his own life.

Compared with his justice and bravery, my timidity and cowardice really seem humble and disgusting...

At this time, Baron and the others also rushed here. Seeing this scene, Shi Wen rushed to the side of Harvey's body and began to suffer.

"What happened?" Baron asked.

Rhodes fully told Baron about the experience just now, but he was embarrassed to tell the story that he used "Wisdom's Calamity" on the black-clothed assassin so that he exchanged his life for his life, but chose to hide it, saying that the black-clothed assassin After being physically exhausted and injured under the siege of two people, he finally chose to exchange his life for his life.

Shi Wen looked at Rhodes with hatred, and said coldly, "Coward! Coward! If you help, Uncle Harvey will not die."

Rhodes was unable to refute Shi Wen's words, and he blamed himself even more when he thought of what just happened.

"It's better not to quarrel. No one thought that the assassin would suddenly die. Rhodes has never cooperated with us. It is the right choice not to intervene. We should now complete Uncle Harvey's unfinished will and make the Death Sect All the cultists were wiped out and the innocent villagers were rescued." The "Silent Knight" said.

Rhodes was shocked, not because the "Silent Knight" spoke, nor because the "Silent Knight" defended him, but because the "Silent Knight" who had been outstanding in every battle before was actually a female knight...
