Carlos was driving the carriage on the road. In the woods beside the road ahead, a black figure was standing on a tree trunk. The figure took out an iron arrow, slowly put it on the bow in his hand, and pulled the bowstring in the direction of the carriage. His movements were gentle and steady, and his arms and body did not shake at all during the whole process.

The dark arrowhead with a strange luster reflected a hint of metallic luster in the sun. This was a specially modified arrow. The surface of the arrowhead was coated with some kind of drug that could paralyze human nerves and muscles, which could have a strong effect even on knights.

"Swoosh--"

The bowstring made a tremor, and the arrow turned into a meteor, and flew towards Carlos who was driving with a strong sound of breaking through the air.

Carlos was very vigilant and immediately felt the source of the crisis. His eyes suddenly looked at the arrow shot at him, but the arrow was too fast, and it was a sudden attack. Carlos had no time to react. He could only lean his body to the side a little by instinct to avoid being attacked in the vital parts.

"Puff!"

The sound of the flesh being penetrated reached Carlos' ears, and then his body trembled, and a sharp pain came from his shoulder, which had lost consciousness.

Carlos' face turned pale, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He reached out to pull out the arrow. Fortunately, he was protected by armor and the wound was not deep.

The life energy in Carlos' body started to circulate, wrapping the wound on his shoulder and stopping the bleeding. At the same time, he endured the pain and stopped the carriage, letting it stop by the road.

At this time, the movement outside was also heard by Viscount Noas and Ximan in the carriage. Viscount Noas waved his hand to let Ximan stay in the carriage and wait for news, and he lifted the curtain of the carriage and walked out.

"Swish!"

As soon as Viscount Noas walked out, the air rang with the sound of an arrow breaking through the air, and a sharp iron arrow drew arcs under the sunlight and shot towards Carlos at the head of the carriage.

Viscount Noas's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his right hand touched his waist. A cross sword instantly appeared in his hand, and a silver sword light shone, slashing at the iron arrow.

"Bang——"

The two collided, making a dull sound, and the iron arrow was torn into pieces in the air by Viscount Noas's huge power, turning into countless fragments.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking the road?" Viscount Noas glanced at the injured Carlos and said coldly, his eyes fixed on the woods.

"Swish!"

Two men in black suddenly jumped out of the woods on the left side of the road, one tall and one short. The two men were agile and rushed to Viscount Noas in the blink of an eye. The tall man stretched out his hand and waved, and a light yellow powder sprayed out from his hand, covering Viscount Noas and Carlos.

Although Viscount Noas was very alert when the two men in black appeared, he did not expect that the two men would be so mean.

The moment the powder appeared, Viscount Noas held his breath, but he was caught off guard and still inhaled some yellow powder. He immediately felt his body begin to sore and weak, as if something weighing a thousand pounds was pressing on his whole body, which was extremely uncomfortable.

"Damn it! It's the intoxicating powder!" Viscount Noas's face was ugly. This is a kind of powder extracted from a variety of plants. It is very valuable and can temporarily paralyze people's nerves and muscles, and gradually lose their ability to move.

Viscount Noas knew that he had been tricked. Although with his strength, he could greatly weaken the effect of the powder, he could not completely avoid it, so he had to solve the situation in front of him when his strength was not too weakened. Otherwise, when his combat effectiveness dropped significantly, Ximan and Carlos would be in danger.

Viscount Noas bent his feet slightly, stepped hard on the carriage, and rushed towards the two men in black like an arrow from a string. The cross sword in his hand danced tightly, and a brilliant silver light burst out, filling the sight of the two men in black.

"Don't fight him head-on, let's delay time!" the short man in black ordered, and the two of them quickly dispersed, one on the left and one on the right, surrounding Viscount Noas.

Carlos, who was at the head of the carriage, was shot by an arrow that was already coated with medicine and was injured. He had just inhaled a lot of intoxicating powder, and now his whole body was numb. Not to mention getting up to fight, he could only barely stay awake.

Although Viscount Noas had the advantage, he was limited to suppressing the two men in black. The two men in black were not weak in strength. One was a mid-level knight and the other was a beginner knight. They didn't want to fight Viscount Noas head-on, but just wanted to delay time, so Viscount Noas couldn't get rid of the two for a while.

Heman in the carriage heard the sound of weapons clashing outside, and he became worried. Looking at the fog cat sitting on the side without any reaction, Heman also had a bottom line in his heart, drew out the cross sword at his waist and walked out.

The moment Ximan walked out of the carriage, the two men in black noticed him. They looked at each other, and the tall figure of the mid-level knight changed his previous dodging strategy and waved the heavy sword in his hand to attack Viscount Noas.

The thin figure who was entangled with Viscount Noas immediately retreated and took the opportunity to pounce on Ximan.

"You are looking for death!"

When Viscount Noas saw Ximan walking out of the carriage, his heart also trembled, and a bad premonition appeared in his heart.

Then, Viscount Noas saw the thin figure pounce on Ximan, and he cursed in a low voice, and the cross sword in his hand emitted a dazzling silver light, and more than ten sword shadows instantly submerged the tall figure.

Although the tall figure struggled to resist, he was still forced to retreat. Several ferocious sword marks appeared on his body, and bright red liquid overflowed from the wounds.

"Hoo ho ho!"

The tall figure staggered to his feet, clutching his chest. His face was pale, and there was even a wisp of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that he was seriously injured, but he had a smile on his face at this time: "How is it? Do you feel that your body is getting weaker? ?”

Viscount Noah's face turned pale. As he continued to consume the life energy in his body, the influence of the intoxicating powder on him became greater. Especially the move just now consumed a lot of his life energy, making his situation worse. It's serious.

"Despicable!" Viscount Noahs growled through gritted teeth.

"Hehe..." The tall figure chuckled sinisterly: "How can we win against an enemy with your strength without some tricks? And we are killers, so of course we will use all possible means!"

Although the two were having a conversation, they were actually focused on He-Man, and the battle there would determine the direction of the situation.

Viscount Noahs was worried that Seaman would be killed by the thin figure.

The tall figure hoped that his companions would deal with He-Man as soon as possible so that the two of them could run away. He did not want to stay and face an angry high-level knight, even if the knight was hit by the intoxicating powder.
