Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 255 Sword Qi
At the door of the basement stood two knights with swords and large shields. Their armor gleamed silvery under the light of the oil lamp.

Rhodes, who was wearing a black night suit, looked a little thinner in front of these two tall knights.

Without any conversation, the two knights raised their weapons and rushed towards Rhodes. They watched Rhodes kill all the mercenaries outside, but because of their duties, they did not step forward to help but continued to guard the mercenaries. The doorway to the basement.

They worried that if they stepped forward to help those mercenaries, Rhodes' accomplices might take the opportunity to enter the basement and destroy the auction inside. They probably couldn't run as fast as an ordinary farmer wearing such armor.

Rhodes took off the gloves of the night suit, took out a two-handed sword in the space ring, and stood there waiting for the two knights to rush over.

They should all be just ordinary wandering knights, and their strength, like him, has not exceeded the fourth level.

After the Battle of Fortress of Glory, Rhodes specially studied how to deal with such steel cans. At that time, he was chased by those imperial soldiers who were also wearing heavy armor, so he could only deal with the imperial crossbowmen in front of him. He wanted to fight those heavily armored soldiers, but no matter whether it was the Flame Palm or the Yiyang Finger, they couldn't break through their defenses at all.

Rhodes felt that the best way to deal with such a big man like a tin can was to let them lose their balance and fall to the ground. If they fell to the ground, it would be difficult to get up without help.

After they fell to the ground, Rhodes only had to take away their weapons, take off their helmets, and cut their fragile throats with a sword.

Two knights ran in front of Rhodes, and they stabbed Rhodes fiercely from two different directions with their swords at the same time.

In front of Rhodes who had learned the Dugu Nine Swords, the two knights were full of flaws.

clang clang!

Rhodes quickly separated the swords of the two of them, and then stabbed the sword at one of the knights. The knight's armor was smooth and curved, and the sword pierced only left some scratches on his armor. .

The two knights stabbed Rhodes with their swords again.

This time Rhodes put the sword back into the space ring, stretched out his hands, grabbed the sword they stabbed with his hand, and then swung their sword to the side, taking the opportunity to go around behind the two of them.

He suddenly felt that there was no need to be as troublesome as he had thought before. The strength of these two men was not as good as that of the Empire's heavy armored sergeant, and it was estimated that they were only at the second level and close to the third level.

Rhodes circled behind the two of them, he rushed to one of the knights, and hugged him from behind.

If someone who didn't know it looked at it, they would think that the knight was carrying Rhodes on his back.

Rhodes took out the sharp "Wise Men's Calamity" from the space ring, and used all his strength to stab the dagger from the bottom up to the knight's jaw.

The armor on the chin is generally the thinnest, and if made too thick, it will not only affect the wearer's ability to turn his head but also make him uncomfortable.

The sharp dagger easily pierced the knight's head, and the tip of the dagger protruded from the knight's head with red blood and white brain.

Rhodes pulled out the dagger, fell from the knight's back to the ground, and pushed the knight's body away.

With a stabbing sound, Rhodes felt that someone had cut his back with a sword. The night clothes must have been scratched, but he just felt as if he had been hit with a stick.

"What kind of monster are you?" A hoarse voice came from behind.

Rhodes turned around quickly, and stabbed the knight who raised his sword with his dagger to attack again. His attack speed was much faster than this knight, but the knight raised his shield instinctively to block Rhodes' attack.

The knight roared and stabbed the sword at Rhodes' head. With the blessing of the magic ring worn by Rhodes that can speed up the reaction speed, the knight's attack, which was already slow for Rhodes, seemed even slower now.

Rhodes turned his head to avoid it, and grabbed the knight's wrist with his empty left hand, and then he used the grappling hand that he had never used since he learned it before.

The knight's weapon was thrown aside, and Rhodes pressed his whole body to the ground.

"Don't kill me." The knight who was held down by Rhodes hurriedly begged for mercy.

Rhodes had suffered such a loss before, he thrust the dagger in his right hand into the back of the knight's head, twisted hard and pulled it out.

The knight on the ground twitched twice and then stopped moving.

Rhodes rummaged through the two knights, but couldn't find anything of value. After wiping the blood on the dagger with a knight's inner clothes, he walked towards the door of the basement.

The door to the basement was very heavy. He pushed it suddenly, but the door remained motionless.

He stood there, thinking about how to open this smooth stone door...

In the basement, a young man with shiny hair standing on end and wearing exquisite clothes stood on a high platform.

There were rows of buyers in different costumes sitting under the stage. They included nobles in gorgeous clothes and mercenaries in rusty armor, but each of them wore a different mask on their faces.

"The next auction item is a mysterious skull from the depths of the Eastern Grassland. This skull contains mysterious power. In addition to being able to absorb the souls of the dead, it is said that it also contains a huge secret. The starting price is [-] gold coins. Each price increase is no less than ten gold coins." The young man on the high platform pointed to a mutilated human skull on an exhibition stand and said loudly.

The audience was very quiet. Obviously, most people were not interested in this auction item. A mysterious item of unknown origin like this might carry a weird curse.

"Since no one wants it, I'll take the one hundred gold coins." An old voice sounded, speaking from a man wearing a skull mask with gray and thinning hair.

"One hundred gold coins, the first time."

"One hundred gold coins, the third time, deal!" Rhode's voice sounded from near the door at the end of the basement.

He had just studied for a long time before opening that door. The door was designed ingeniously. Once it was closed, it could not be opened from the outside. It could only be opened by standing inside and pushing outward.

And Rhodes first tried to use the mage ball a few times but failed to pull it open, and finally pushed it from the inside to the outside with the telescopic fetch to open it.

This door once again verified that the two magic methods are not the same.

"Who are you?" the Mediterranean slave trader Rhodes met during the day stood up and asked loudly.

Rhodes checked around with the mage ball and confirmed that he could only leave through this door.

He took out a two-handed sword, poured his inner strength and magic power into the sword, and slashed continuously in front of him.

The next moment, most of the basement was covered by a sharp orange-red sword energy.The wounds left by the sword qi after the damage looked similar to ordinary sword wounds, and Rhode's internal strength skyrocketed a lot after being strengthened by the marrow washing pill and the blood bodhi.

The number and power of the sword energy he fired, as well as the attack distance, have increased a lot. After using such a blow, more than half of the internal force in Rhodes' body was consumed, but it was still more than the total internal force before taking the medicine to strengthen it.

The raging sword energy almost destroyed all the items in the basement. Sawdust and feathers flew in the basement. Most of the guests who came to the auction were cut into countless pieces in an instant. Only a few scarred people were left. stand up……
