Can two ambush - style arrows injure Scarlett? Leo doesn't think so.
An ambush might work against Scarlett, but it's definitely not something that two mid - level Defias hunters can achieve.
Sure enough, the incoming arrows didn't even touch Scarlett. The female knight just leaned sideways on the horse and easily dodged them. For Scarlett, the shooting speed of these two arrows was too slow. To injure her? Even if the speed was doubled, it would be impossible.
Scarlett, whose horse speed didn't decrease at all in the obstruction of the Defias thief leaders, had already arrived beside Willie. At this time, this temporary leader of the Defias Thief Group was dizzily lying on the ground counting ants.
The female knight exerted force with her hand holding the sword. The heavy sword didn't slash towards Willie under the horse but was swung horizontally in a circle. The dazzling holy light gushed out from the magic - engraved sword body. With the rapid swinging of the sword body, it seemed that a golden ring appeared around Scarlett.
Several screams occurred. Several figures in the space beside the female knight screamed and flew out to the side. These were the Defias rogues who wanted to ambush Scarlett.
Scarlett was strong, but the Defias thieves were not pushovers either. These rogues clearly wanted to take advantage of the moment when Scarlett focused on Willie to launch an ambush. If the female knight had only been concerned with beheading Willie just now, she would surely have succeeded, but she would also definitely have been injured by several ambushing rogues.
Regardless of the death of their companions and only caring about being able to injure the enemy, these Defias thieves were really not good people. Seeing this, Leo shook his head repeatedly. The way of the Defias thieves could only arouse Scarlett's killing intent and had no other effect.
You couldn't beat this tough girl in the first place, and now you've aroused her killing intent. Aren't you looking for death? Looking at the Defias rogue who was swept away by Scarlett's sword and then fell silent, Leo curled his lips. This is really reaping what one has sown.
The heavy sword was raised again. Amidst the whistling wind, the sharp blade grazed Willie, who hadn't yet recovered from the Hammer of Judgment. The black - robed rogue had no ability to resist at all and was beheaded.
Willie was killed!
Several Defias thief leaders were so shocked that their hearts trembled. Black - robed Willie was the strongest among them. His strength was not much different from that of an ordinary high - level warrior. Such a master was killed by that female knight without even having a chance to fight back. How much fighting spirit did these people, whose strength was far inferior to Willie's, still have?
The poor rogue was caught by the paladin from stealth. A rogue without the first - move advantage was really miserable. While mourning for Willie, Leo was also a little anxious. It seemed that these leaders of the Defias Thief Group were completely no match for Scarlett, and they couldn't even consume much of Scarlett's strength. In this case, either Leo himself took action or waited until the battle was over to think of a way. But if they waited until this battle was over, there wouldn't be many members of the Original Stone Workers' Brotherhood who really needed to be resettled by the kingdom.
Did I really have to fight this tough girl head - on? Leo hesitated. It felt very bad to be weaker than the other party, and he was somewhat hesitant in doing anything. The feeling of being weak was really annoying, and the determination to become stronger increased further in his heart.
Just as Leo was hesitating, Scarlett, who had dealt with Willie, had already ridden towards the Defias thief leaders. Under the swing of the female knight's heavy sword and the shining of the scorching holy light, except for an ice - attribute mage who fled after being seriously injured, all the other thief group leaders became cold corpses on the ground.
The death of their own leaders made the morale of the Defias side drop sharply immediately. The formation that could still fight with the other side for a while began to retreat step by step. If there was no miracle, the defeat of the Defias was inevitable.
Would a miracle happen? If miracles were so easy to appear, could they still be called miracles?
"Steady, everyone, don't panic. Behind us is our home. Think about the old people and children in the town. Can you retreat?"
Just when the Defias were about to suffer a great defeat, a person bravely stood up. Amidst the shouts of him and a fat and a thin figure behind him, the Defias thieves actually slowly stabilized their formation.
It was the paladin apprentice met on the Sardin Farm. Oh, it should be the former paladin apprentice. Leo looked carefully and, wow, it was an acquaintance.
This kid is really not afraid of death. Isn't it looking for death to stand out at this time? Seeing Scarlett turn her horse's head and rush towards Sardin, Leo silently sighed. I didn't dare to show my face at this time, and you dared to. You are really a former hot - blooded youth.
"Be careful!"
Scarlett was like a beacon in the battlefield. Her every move was the focus of everyone's attention. Seeing the female knight ride towards him, the fat and thin figures behind Sardin hurriedly protected him behind their bodies.
Loyal and commendable, but it was useless.
Leo slightly shook his head. The fat and thin figures were Sardin's servants. Their behavior of protecting their master was worthy of praise, but it was really useless. These three guys couldn't even defeat Leo's werewolves, let alone confront Scarlett, who could kill werewolves in an instant.
When Scarlett rode to the side of Sardin and the other two, the result was obvious - the female knight's heavy sword swept over, and the three immediately fell down.
Three poor kids. If you have no strength, don't show off. Leo didn't feel disappointed that the Sardin trio was solved by Scarlett with one sword. He didn't expect these three to cause any trouble to Scarlett in the first place. It was just that they had eaten barbecue together after all, and he had used them before. Their death made him a little melancholy more or less.
Just as Leo was thinking about what to do next, a conversation that he didn't know was taking place.
"Master Sardin, just lie there and don't move at all."
"Young master, what the fat guy said is right. You mustn't move. Fatso and I are not very capable and have always been unable to help you. This time, we can finally do something for you."
It turned out that when Scarlett swung her sword, the two people protecting Sardin in front of him suddenly pushed him. Caught off - guard, Sardin fell backwards under this force. At this time, Scarlett's heavy sword happened to chop down. It looked as if Sardin was chopped down by the female knight's heavy sword. Coupled with the fact that the really stabbed fatso and the thin figure pressed Sardin under their bodies, Scarlett, who swept past, didn't notice. This made Sardin escape a calamity.
Sardin didn't struggle. The former paladin apprentice had a dazed look on his face. Letting the liquid flowing out of the bodies of the two servants pressing on him completely wet himself, feeling the increasingly weak life breath of the two servants who had accompanied him for many years, tears unconsciously welled up from Sardin's eyes.
I'm really useless. My father and mother hoped that I would become a noble paladin, but I have degenerated into a bandit. The farm is the precious property left by my parents, but I have let it go to rack and ruin. Now the two servants who have been with me all the time are also about to leave me, and I can only lie on the ground and pretend to be dead for the sake of survival.
"Father Samuel, you once told me that if I want to become a noble paladin, I must protect everything around me. But look at me now. From the expectations of my father and mother to the family business of Sardin Farm, and now to the unswerving servants, I actually haven't been able to protect anything..."
"...Protect everything that should be protected around, haha. Holy Light, my faith in you is so pious. But why have you never responded to me... Father Samuel said that the Holy Light will give us courage and strength to protect all the beautiful things around us. I need strength now to protect the beautiful things around me. Will you give me strength..."
"...Holy Light, re!ply! To! Me!"
