Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 230 Ambush
Rhodes and Duke Ulver walked towards the middle of the city. Rhodes used the mage ball to explore the surrounding situation from time to time. He wanted to know what made him feel this strange feeling.

Not long after, several nobles appeared in front of them. They should have learned that Duke Ulver had arrived in this city and ran over to greet him.

"Why did you come here suddenly?" A nobleman in a gorgeous purple robe said humbly.

Rhodes felt a little strange, unless he was a vassal under the Duke of Ulver, otherwise he didn't need to lower his posture so low.

"Do you know where the king has gone?" Duke Ulver asked. He knew that the king had captured the city through the letter sent by the raven four days ago, and he did not receive any more messages after that. I don't know if nothing important happened or something happened.

"His Majesty the King left here with the army to attack other cities." The nobleman replied.

"How many days has he been away?" Duke Ulver asked again.

"I just left the city the day before yesterday." The noble replied after thinking for a while.

Duke Ulver nodded thoughtfully, "Help us find a place to rest."

This is just a small city, there is no castle in the city, and even the nobles can only live in the houses of the residents.

The leading nobleman nodded, "Follow me."

Several nobles brought Rhodes and Duke Ulver to a mansion.

"Your Excellency, you can rest here today." said the nobleman before.

Duke Ulver nodded, got off the horse, led the horse and Rhodes in.

Passing through the courtyard of the mansion, they tied the horses in the yard, pushed open the door of the mansion and walked in. The decorations in the room were all exquisite, but there was no one there. Rhodes originally thought that the nobles would arrange for them some servants.

"Why don't we continue to set off, but stay here overnight?" Rhodes asked, he always felt that this city gave him a very strange feeling.

"I find it a bit strange. Three days before we left the castle, I received a letter from the king from this city, saying that he had left the city and was going to attack other cities. Today is the fourth day. It has been at least four days since the king set off, but these nobles said that he left the city the day before yesterday." Duke Ulver said after pondering for a while.

"Are these nobles lying to us?" Rhodes asked.

"No, I think we should have fallen into some kind of illusion together." Duke Ulver shook his head, "I thought about it carefully, I have never seen them before, those people behaved too abnormally, they shouldn't be Showing such humility, you shouldn't have rushed to meet me so soon."

Rhodes also felt a little strange about this before.

"Could it be that evil god who wanted to take revenge on us?" Rhode asked suddenly, because he felt that the evil god might take revenge on them.

"It shouldn't be, since the dragon was exiled, the power of both the ancient god and the false god has gradually weakened. Even if the false god got the corpse of a powerful ancient god, it would not be able to let me fall into such a real illusion. ’ replied Duke Ulver.

"Then why do you still think that we have fallen into an illusion? Could it be made by a living ancient god?" Rhodes asked again.

"We may have accidentally broken into a certain ruin, but with the blessing of countless magic circles, we can still make me fall into such a real illusion." Duke Ulver said.

"But is there any point in letting us enter such an illusion? Why not just kill the intruders like us?" Rhodes felt that this speculation was not reasonable, "or you are actually thinking too much, we simply We didn't fall into any hallucinations together."

"I hope so..." At this moment, a strange sound came from outside.

Rhodes and the Duke glanced at each other and rushed to the gate of the mansion.

After pushing open the gate, they were greeted by a large group of soldiers lined up in neat battle formation. They surrounded the entire mansion with their shields, and there were sharp spears standing between the shields.

These soldiers are wearing the armor of imperial soldiers.

Could it be that the king was defeated, and Duke Elvis' troops recovered the city, disguised the city as if it was still controlled by the Nords, and came here for fishing?
Rhode suddenly thought of this possibility.

At this moment, several dull voices sounded, and several thick crossbow arrows shot from above the mansion behind them, flying towards them.

Rhodes dodged flexibly, and a crossbow bolt brushed against his scalp.

He turned around and shot three flaming palms in the direction where the crossbow arrows were coming from. After meeting those nobles, Rhodes did not use the mage ball again. They hadn't discovered the three bed crossbows hidden on the roof of the mansion before. .

The three flame palms hit the three bed crossbows, and the violent explosion not only killed the bed crossbows and the soldiers operating beside them, but also collapsed the roof of the mansion.

The row of soldiers holding shields in front of Rhodes was slowly approaching them.

"Unfortunately, we were discovered by you before we were fully deployed." Rhodes recognized the voice of the noble just now, and he hid behind the shields of these soldiers, "But you still can't survive, surrender quickly Come on, barbarian."

"They are just an ordinary formation, not a war that resonates among soldiers. We can kill them all here." Duke Ulver said.

Rhodes nodded, and the next moment arrows rained down from their heads. There was a group of archers hiding behind the soldiers, and they hoped to kill the besieged Rhodes with the rain of arrows.

But neither Rhodes nor the Duke of Ulver will be hurt by the rain of arrows made by ordinary archers. Rhodes has the golden bell cover iron shirt and iron head skills, and the arrows falling on him are like hitting an iron plate. The same, all automatically pop up.A thick layer of ice crystals formed on Duke Ulver's body, and the arrows hitting the ice crystals could only scratch a few scratches.

Rhodes slapped the shield wall in front of him with his flaming palm, and the violent explosion made the soldiers hit back a few steps, and the formation was disrupted as a result.

Although these people ambushed them, they obviously didn't know their strength before.

Rhodes suddenly remembered that those nobles didn't call Ulfer the Duke, they just called him you. Those nobles didn't know who they were, but just saw their equipment and their attitude towards "Nord soldiers". Became a nobleman of Nord.

Duke Ulver on the other side had already rushed forward, killing most of these ordinary imperial soldiers. He held a battle ax in each hand, and his killing speed was much faster than Rhodes.

Rhodes didn't even take out his weapon, and relied on his own fists to plan.After cultivating the iron cloth shirt with golden bell cover, his body is as hard as steel, especially the legs that have been further strengthened by the powerful vajra legs.

He kicked a soldier's shield violently, sending the soldier and the shield out.

After that, Rhodes kicked the ground again, jumped up, and used chain legs in the air, kicking everyone in the head of the surrounding soldiers.The cracks were kicked out of their steel helmets, and the skull under the helmets should also be smashed by Rhodes.

The soldiers around Rhodes fell to the ground without moving.

This kind of fighting scene is not dared to appear in the drama, and Rhodes did not expect that he can do it now...

　Thanks for the empty monthly pass for the bottle!
