Mercenaries and Adventurers

The leader of the monster drew out his swords. The light of the sword flashed in front of him and slashed down diagonally. The light of the sword struck forward quickly from diagonally below. When he made the move, the monster's legs swelled in a circle, stepping on the solid ground that was half sunk into the ground. The steps came quickly.

Bell was panting beside him to regain his strength, but his eyes were fixed on the battle without blinking. At this time, he warned in advance: "Be careful!"

He still had something to say later, but Kil's reflexes were not compromised. When the sword light came, the shield had already moved slightly, and with a pair of quick and small steps, he retreated twenty centimeters to avoid it. With the maximum force of the opponent's long sword, he stopped him with his shield.

squeak-

Sparks flew, and the next moment, the two swords were twisted together.

"Pay attention to its power! On the carriage just now, neither that guy nor I could use our full strength!" After Bell finished speaking, he saw two long swords strangled together, so he stopped speaking. Reminding Keir, he turned to the church priests around him and said: "This monster is difficult to deal with. Please give me blessings and pray. Please."

All the priests agreed in unison, no longer retaining their own reserves of divine power, and used the divine power of blessing and prayer that they had exerted on others.

The priests of the God of Agriculture give the baron heir the ability to pray for short-term energy recovery, the priests of the Church of the God of Wealth give the heir of the God of Wealth the ability to pray for concentration of willpower, and the priests of the Church of the Sun God give the heir of the Baron the ability to pray to dispel negative effects. The priests of the Church of the God of the Dead actually prayed, wishing that Bel-Sath would not come into contact with death in the next battle.

Back to Keir.

The long swords were strangled together, and Kil rotated his wrist, trying to use his magic sword to destroy the blade of the opponent's long sword. But the opponent was also a very experienced opponent. As soon as he felt something was wrong, he immediately drew his sword and retreated.

However, Kil's advantage was unyielding and he immediately caught up with him. His shield targeted the opponent's weakness in dual-wielding swords and directly closed the distance, not giving the opponent any fighting space to wield weapons wantonly.

For a moment, there was only a clanging sound, as the monster leader simply waved his sword over his head and then slashed at Kil, but he was blocked by a shield every time. The sharp blade can only make shallow cuts on the upper edge of the shield.

The monster keeps retreating, trying to create a suitable fighting distance, but Kil is chasing after him. With his shield and armor, the closer the fighting distance, the more advantageous it is to him.

But soon, the monster no longer retreated directly, but instead moved sideways and rotated, trying to get to the side of Kiel. At the same time, while rotating and moving, the long knife also rotated and charged up, and struck out with a heavy slash.

Kil also drew an arc with his long sword and slashed at it. The target was not the monster itself, but the sword it was striking at this time.

Gang—

A sharp collision sound was heard, causing everyone around to cover their ears and look in pain.

When the blow collided, Kil's long sword was even better. Although the monster charged up and slashed, and its strength was no less than Kil's own, the weight of the weapon itself affected the result of the blow at this time.

A crack popped out of the opponent's long knife, and the flying edge material of the blade hit the bodies of the two fighting men with sparks. Kil ignored it, and the fine particles bounced off with a long spark on the shoulder armor, while another part of the broken material sank into the body of the monster leader, and then flowed out a few drops as the body moved. Lilac plant sap.

After a collision caused the opponent's weapon to fly away, Kil roared and raised his sword, but was immediately pressed against the hunting sword by the opponent's long sword. Both sides struggled, but neither could do anything to the other.

"Very powerful?"

Kil asked, then took a deep breath and let the life energy in his body move at high speed. The next moment, his strength doubled.

It was obvious that he was the one who was being suppressed by raising his sword, but Kil still managed to gain the upper hand in the power struggle with the rattling swords by relying on the temporary use of greater power.

The places where both sides stood were stepped into the ground, and the soil was submerged into the ankles. Kil kept putting the soles of his feet on the ground to adjust the position of his feet, while the leader of the monster on the opposite side was even more cunning. The opponent was parasitic. Many slender vine roots sprouted directly from the human calf area, piercing down into the soil around the feet to fix their position and provide a more stable force point for the body and weapons.

But all of this was reversed by Kil. He raised the hunting sword against the trend and approached the monster's chest diagonally step by step. Just as Kil was grinning and about to take advantage of this round, Bell's reminder came from behind him. "Be careful! That guy's head is attacking!"

This was accompanied by exclamations from soldiers and priests.

Kil was startled and looked up subconsciously. He was surprised to find that the head of the monster leader was right in front of him. His neck extended like a long snake, and his mouth was so wide that it could swallow a human head. Huge magnitude.

The teeth are thick, and the tongue in the mouth is split into seven or eight petals. Each one is like a small snake raising its body in the open mouth vigilantly, preparing to get into the hole on Keir's face next. Parasitic control.

With no time to do anything, Kil directly detonated and released half of the Sun God's power in the long sword hunt.

Far faster than the monster's head flying over to bite and devour, the dazzling white light spread from Kil's long sword in a ball shape. Because of the emergency, Kil didn't care about the enemy or the direction of the release of his divine power.

Swish——

"Ji-"

The monster was hit by the stabbing attack and rolled into a ball on the spot. Kil blinked twice and adapted. Although the divine power released by oneself will not hurt oneself, excessive bright light will still cause people to subconsciously close their eyes to protect themselves.

Things were not so good for those around me.

The soldiers were watching the battle intently, cheering for the Kiel Knights, and waving weapons in their hands. As a result, they were all blinded by the sudden white light of divine power.

At this time, everyone's eyes were blank, their eyes were blinking, and they shed a lot of tears. They were all shouting that Knight Kiel had shot the wrong person.

This made Kil couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The priests, on the other hand, experienced a flash of consumption of divine power, blocking the white light containing the sun god's divine power from blooming. However, the divine powers could cancel each other out, but the dazzling white light could not offset each other. At this time, they all closed their eyes tightly and began to rub their hands, one after another. He looked in the direction of the two Sun God Church priests who were dumbfounded.

The two priests of the Church of the Sun God will naturally not be affected, and even their divine power has recovered slightly just now. After all, the power of the Sun God on the long sword is gathered spontaneously, and there is no personal imprint of the priest. Within the Church of the Sun God, Anyone can use it.

At this time, the two men had to apologize and hurriedly treated the soldiers who had eye discomfort and were blinded by divine power.

In fact, it is very simple, just touch the palm of your hand in front of the soldier's eyes, and take back the power of the sun **** who is acting as a demon, and the blindness of the power will naturally be cured. But this cannot be done by the priests of the Church of the Sun God themselves.

But the heir to the baron was fine. When the divine power broke out, several magic runes appeared on his armor automatically, deflecting the incoming unfavorable divine power.

At this moment, the baron heir could not help curling his lips when he saw the changes that had taken place in the battle, and shouted dissatisfied to Kiel: "Knight Kiel, this is a formal and severe battle. Please show your true skills. The battlefield is not for you to play for fun. In this place, when facing a strong enemy, we must use our full strength!"

After hearing this, Kil smiled and looked at the monster leader rolling over on the ground with his head in his arms, without saying anything.

Just as he was about to step forward and knock his weapon away, the monster leader trembled for a moment, and his vision that had been disturbed by the blinding power of the **** was restored. With a long neck like a plesiosaur, it immediately stood up and stretched its neck. At this time, the height of the head was at least three meters, which looked very weird.

"This is ridiculous. Monsters should look like monsters! Bah, parasitizing humans and using our human bodies to fight, what does it look like!"

Keir shouted loudly and laughed.

The people behind him couldn't laugh, because just as Keir was talking and laughing, the body of the leader of the parasitic monster changed again.

There was a tremor and sound in the arms, legs and feet, and then they were continuously stretched from the joints. The skin and muscles were torn off, but the next moment they were replaced by tiny vine roots inside.

In just five or six seconds, the monster's height further increased. It was stretched by one meter from the legs and knees, and its arms and elbows were also extended by one meter from here. The waist was twisted and stretched by half a meter. The waist part even exploded, and two long arms that were completely made of vine roots but imitated the structure of human arms were squeezed out from the wound.

In addition to the original two, this guy now has four arms, each almost two meters long.

The height of the entire monster suddenly reached a height of four and a half meters. It was long and thin and looked completely inhuman. It looked more like a mantis that had become a spirit.

Unlike the shock of others present, Keir laughed with satisfaction: "This is what it looks like! A monster should look like a monster!"

He put the hunting sword into its sheath, and put the shield in his left hand behind his back under the cloak again. The baron heir frowned at this, fearing that the foreign knight would give up his sword and leave in the face of a strong enemy, so he immediately stopped. After watching, he strode forward, holding a heavy ax in both hands, and cheered up Keir beside him and said: "Don't worry, the monster in this form, I believe the heavy ax in my hand can make it look better!"

Kil glanced at the ax in the opponent's hand and nodded: "You're right, such a monster is suitable for cutting into pieces with an ax!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he used his right hand to take out an ax with blue light from under the cloak on the right side of his back.

Kil gently stroked the blue ax surface with his steel-armored palm, making a crunching sound, and looked at the various patterns on one side of the ax with satisfaction.

"I'm treating you to a big dinner today! Keep your spirits up and fight!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two knights stood several meters apart with axes in hand, facing the leader of the parasitic monster who was more than twice as tall as him from the left and right sides.

"How about I go first? How about you go to the priests behind you to receive a round of prayers and blessings? I don't expect it to fight with all its strength from the beginning. Because it seems that it is not suitable for fighting in this form. "

Bell reminded.

Kil shook his head, waved his excited head twice, patted the sides of the armor with his left hand, and shouted loudly: "The source of vegetation!"

There was no need to shout out originally, but now that the battle has reached this point, not shouting seems to be missing something.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished shouting, the first ones to show shocked expressions were the Saturnine priests among the priests behind them. In their unbelievable eyes, the green Saturnian power of Kil, the foreign knight, surged, and the redundant It even overflowed from the surface of his body, bringing out the outline of cyan divine power on the surface of his armor.

As the blessing ability given to him by the Montocan Saint Parish takes effect, in the next period of time, all the consumption of Kil's body will be replaced by the overflowing divine power of the Saint in his body.

Therefore, Kil tried to use all the life energy in his body at full power, squatting slightly, and the next moment.

Jumping up in an instant, the blue ax brought a flying blue light band across a straight diagonal line, straight from the ground to the front of the monster's body, which was three to four meters high.

Bell reacted, and although he was shocked by Kil's hidden strength, at the same moment he rushed forward and swung his ax, and the heavy ax in his hand struck straight at the monster's left calf.

The leader of the parasitic monster who has completely broken away from the human form does not know what kind of power he has received. It may be the power of the vengeful **** named [Flesh Demon]. Although its size has increased, its speed and strength have not weakened strangely. On the contrary , at this time, it is far better than its parasitic form just now.

A long knife that elongated his arm was drawn out instantly, and it came in time to block the blue ax blade that Keir was slashing.

But the next moment, in the short time before the surrounding soldiers and priests could react, the long knife that collided with the blue ax shattered, and the scattered steel that rolled back shattered half of the monster leader's face.

Following closely, the blue ax slashed diagonally across the monster leader's face, taking away most of his chin.

This time, accompanied by the screaming split tongue, the scattered **** teeth, and the twisted and severed half of the jaw, the monster leader whined. Kil excitedly held the ax in his right hand. With the strength of his leap, his left hand flew over the head of the monster leader and grabbed the opponent's messy hair. He even tore off half of his scalp with blood. Kil was in the air. Slowing down and turning, the ax in his hand also took the opportunity to round and strike hard at the **** monster's head.

"Ha! Broken leg!"

Bell excitedly rushed past the monster's left leg, and the ax in his hand just cut off the opponent's calf tibia with one strike. Although he failed to break the leg with one strike, he felt that as long as he turned around and tried again, he would definitely be able to do it.

But at the same time, the monster's entire head exploded from the top, and no matter how small roots packed in the skull cavity repaired the broken head, the monster's head was completely gone.

But Kil, who has fought against this parasitic monster many times, understands that the head is not the weakness of this monster. The opponent has only one core weakness, which is a small core face on the torso of the body. The rest are just tools. It's just a parasitic body structure.

Destruction affects combat effectiveness, but does not affect survival.

So during the subsequent descent, Kil really received the monster's counterattack.

Bell, who was holding a long sword with a long arm, ignored the ground and aimed specifically at Kil, who was falling in the air, and stabbed him hard. But before the fatal blow came, there were two tentacles made entirely of vines, imitating Two plant-like arms in the form of human arms.

The two arms, one on the left and the other on the right, grabbed Keir quickly and forcefully. In front of the slender arms was a plant palm twice the size of a normal human hand. Kil's eyes quickly scanned the situation around him, and he threw the ax in his hand towards the enemy's sword that was about to stab him.

As soon as the ax was released, it roared into a whirlwind. Unexpectedly, the whole sword-holding arm of the monster leader was caught in it. With a crackling sound, both the flesh-and-blood arm and the steel sword were smashed into pieces in the air. .

The next moment, Kil's arms were held tightly in the palms of his hands from the left and right.

But Kil's resistance was also extremely fierce. He pulled his arms back and forth, grabbed the monster's fingers and tore them off with force. His legs and feet kept kicking on the monster's body and torso and the captured arm. He didn't even hit the mimic arm, but when Kier kicked **** the monster's body and torso, the monster was shocked as a whole, and all its attacks and reactions They all paused for a moment.

After Kil went back and forth twice, he laughed excitedly and shouted: "Come back! Head over the water! Come back!"

After shouting, he let the rapidly growing mimetic arm catch him. He stretched his right hand forward in the air, calling for the blue ax that was spinning and strangling at the side.

The ax that had been rotating suddenly stopped suddenly, and then fell into Kiel's hand. The monster wanted to fly the ax away with a wave of his hand~www.readwn.com~, but the ax twisted in the air and avoided the grasp of the hand.

As soon as the ax was in hand, Kil backhandedly chopped off the forearm of the mimic arm that was holding his waist. The plant mimic arm hanging half of the monster around his waist grabbed the monster's body and torso, looking at the position of the core of the monster's face that he had just predicted. Chopping down with one hand.

puff-

The elongated monster's torso was filled with vine roots that had not yet functioned. Kil didn't care about this at all. He changed his hands and grabbed these twisted roots as a fulcrum, and then chopped with his right hand, finally getting behind the monster. A white mass of the core of a human face, less than the size of a fist, was found at the waist.

This thing is all shrunk inside the torso at this time. If you look at it from the outside, you can't see where the core is inside the body. You have to fight and split it with your own hands.

The blue light on the ax vigorously vibrated, and a monster head representing a tree demon shook its head, causing the vine roots attacking the surrounding wounds to wilt one by one. Kil then stretched his right hand forward hard, suppressing the roots that were constantly blocking the surroundings step by step. Must, touch the core face little by little.

Finally, when the sharp blade of the ax cut most of the core human face into half, the monsters on the ax couldn't bear it any longer and pounced on him one after another, devouring the monster's soul.

If it had a soul.

At this moment, the monster could no longer stand and collapsed to the ground. Bell just found the opportunity to swing the second ax and cut off the monster's left leg.

He thought it was his own victory that caused the monster to fall, but when he came back to his senses, he found that the monster leader was dead. Standing up from the body of the dead parasitic monster leader was the man with most of his body stained with The alien knight of monster lilac juice.

There is still one of the monster's arms hanging around the opponent's waist.
