197. Chapter 197 Puppet Disaster IV
Things like gargoyles are basically nightmares for all land warriors.
Even in modern warfare in Roddy's impression, having "air supremacy" also represents an absolute advantage... When armed helicopters exist in local wars, their deterrence is much stronger than any cannon tank.
This situation also applies to this era - in Roddy's eyes, a gargoyle is even more troublesome than eight iron golems!
Arrows are the only way to attack that threatens gargoyles, but they are just "threats". Even a shooter of Roddy's level can only avoid his sharp edge when facing a diving gargoyle... The opponent's speed is much more fierce than the charge cavalry. He is carried by his claws, and there are only a few people who can resist it!
"Run towards the corridor! Beware of gargoyles!"
With the effect of "sprinting", Roddy shook off the puppet chasing behind him, but then he found that the gargoyle was not coming to him, but was swooping down from a distance-
"boom!"
A thunderous sound exploded, and the visible impact of the naked eye caused the entire ground to tremble for a moment. Several running civilians fell to the ground and then got up in a dizzy way and continued to run away...
Roddy's vision was covered by sand and dust, but he immediately thought of who the gargoyle was attacking - only Wellington would have such a formation when he counterattacked!
But Wellington, the powerful "Ghost Knight", could not reassure Roddy. Facing the gargoyle, even Wellington could only be passive... This is the most typical "army conflict". When the "strength" does not exceed a certain limit, the cavalry can do nothing to take the air units.
It seems that the enemy is not only targeting him, but even Wellington is thinking of killing him together!
At this time, he also figured out why Butler Black chose to take action just now: Wellington is the only existence that can compete with these iron golems, so if you want to complete the siege as quickly as possible, it is best to implement it when Wellington leaves...
"It's OK to calculate... these messes."
Roddy turned around and shot an arrow. The arrow hit the head of an iron golem, but the arrow was cut open by the other party's pure metal head with a "ding" sound.
"The attack is invalid..."
Roddy's face became increasingly ugly. He immediately shouted at Soderol, "Ruger and Carter are on standby in the arsenal. There should be a scout who has reported the message. Go find a horse and be careful of the gargoyles in the sky!"
"clear!"
The entire town of Parr was in a strange state at this time. The Templars were panicked and the civilians were panicked, but only Roddy and Soderol still had rational and clear minds to judge the situation when they were running, and even gave orders.
The Templars who rushed over hurriedly retreated to the distance under the command. They looked at the eight black "iron men" and two guards who were chasing with surprise, and were at a loss as they held up the sword in their hands.
One of the Templars ran too hard and didn't hear the order. He just ran into the puppet team from the side. He raised his sword and slashed, but he didn't know that the short sword was embedded in the other party's back. Before he could pull it out, the hammer swung from beside him and flew out in a spin...
"idiot!"
Soderol cursed inwardly, but could not stop such a thing from happening. He turned around and rushed into the alley next to him, disappearing from the puppets' vision. The eight iron golems seemed to have low IQ. After thinking about it, they turned around and surrounded Roddy.
However, the two guards were much faster than the puppets. They chased Soder into the alley, rushing like chariots, and the wooden barrels, fences and even wooden walls in front of them were all like straw paper. The "rumbling" collision sounds all became fragments... They bit Soder tightly and were never completely thrown away!
In comparison, Roddy's pressure is much less.
The eight iron golems walked and shaking the mountain, and the momentum was terrifying, but they were obviously not fast. Roddy was not stupid enough to chop against a group of iron lumps, and kept running ahead.
The thoughts in his mind were very clear at this time. His combat power could not solve the problem directly. The only one with this ability was Wellington - so how to solve the situation around him became the only focus of Roddy's thinking.
Speaking of which, Roddy was in a very bad situation at this time, but fortunately... Roddy won this few "activity" in "extreme passiveness" with her own alertness!
Black didn't expect that the "siege of killing" would be seen through, and he didn't expect that his ability would be trampled to death before he even had time to cast half of his spell...
As the specific planner of this operation, his death directly means that the puppets lost command next and could only complete the "task" entirely with their instinctive consciousness.
This is the "advantage" that is fought for among countless "disadvantages".
Roddy just thought for a moment and then became calculating. He kept jumping onto the roof of the house next to him with "jump". However, before he could run a few steps, the sound of horse hooves in his ears made him frown in an instant.
The strange sound of horse hooves would never come from the scout or the Templars. Roddy turned his head and suddenly felt a chill spread...
At the end of the street, a puppet knight with a metallic luster appeared.
This is the real terrifying thing about the "Iron Golem". The "puppet" it summons and shapes can not only use weapons, but also control war horses and become cavalry!
The "puppet knight" that appears is riding a skeleton war horse full of armor, holding a silver rifle, and charging straight towards the tall figure in the distance...
Obviously, it is specifically for Wellington.
Roddy paused, but narrowed his eyes and glanced over the surrounding buildings. Then he confirmed a direction and rushed over quickly. Behind him, eight iron golems collapsed into the wooden shed of a stable, chasing him without slowing down, hanging all over the straw.
*******
At the same moment, Akasha tried hard to push away the wooden board that was pressing on her body, and endured the severe pain and looked around.
Ten seconds ago, she had just caught up with the Wellington Knight and conveyed Roddy's words, but unexpectedly, as soon as she was halfway through the words, the Wellington Knight, who had originally had a calm face, suddenly grabbed her arm and threw it out!
Compared with Wellington, Akasha's body can only be described as "weak". This swing made Akasha feel dizzy. She retreated seven or eight meters and then rolled to the ground!
Before she could get up, the blast of air waves made her body off the ground. "Kara" smashed the door of the house behind her and fell on the floor of the house...
And in Akasha's rapid retreat, she was seeing the Wellington Knight draw his sword and lift it towards the sky, firmly blocking the attack of a huge black shadow!
The impact of the full explosion of "war energy" made the gargoyle unable to make any progress, but Wellington's feet were trapped in more than ten centimeters on the ground... He blocked the killing attack, but had no strength to fight back at all.
The gargoyle retreated at once. As a flying army, it had absolute initiative and was not fighting with Wellington on the ground. Its wings flapping, and dust rushed into the dark sky and disappeared from everyone's sight...
Wellington stepped forward with a gloomy look, jumped out of the two deep pits that he stepped on, then turned his head and looked in the direction of Akasha, shouting in a deep voice: "How are you?"
He knew that Akasha was brought by Roddy, otherwise he would not have asked this question.
But Akasha had no choice but to answer. Her back shattered the door, and she felt so painful that she couldn't breathe. After pushing the wooden board covering her body, the scenery in front of Akasha was blurred, and she couldn't even see where Wellington was - but when she heard the other party's question, she still stretched out her hand to respond, thinking that she was still alive.
But Wellington didn't have time to answer her - the second gargoyle attack had already arrived. If he hadn't had his ears good enough, he wouldn't have been able to avoid the sharp claws attacking from behind!
"Hiss!"
The leather armor on his shoulder was broken, and Wellington frowned. Although he had never fought with enemies from the air, he could instinctively realize that standing in the open space was not a good thing, so he immediately retreated to the wall of the tavern next to him.
Fifteen meters away, Akasha had already applied a "intermediate healing technique" to her. The pain quickly subsided and her vision became clearer. But the more she did this, the more she understood what she had avoided just now.
There are really enemies, and they are very powerful enemies.
Akasha looked ahead blankly, and she was not the only one around who was overturned by the "war spirit". Three or four innocent civilians were lying on the ground in disrespect. The doors and windows of the tavern were completely broken, and screams came one after another...
And in such chaos, the first thought that flashed through my mind was what Roddy just said - "Look for cover first and then assist in the treatment, do you understand?"
Assist in treatment…
This sentence reminded her of the sarcasm of those people when she was "Viridian Cross" for no reason-
"Isn't it just that the magical arts are stronger? Why should we reach such a high position?"
"Just looking pretty, it's much easier for women to get on top than us."
"I heard that she saved many poor people? It's really interesting. Do you really treat sects as charity, an ignorant woman."
...
Akasha is very simple and has a drifting attitude towards everything, but if there is something she is willing to pursue the ultimate, it must be a "divine technique".
Now, Roddy's only request for her is to use magic to "assist in healing".
Akasha's eyes widened slightly, as if she had suddenly figured out something.
The fear of encountering a strong enemy was still there, and the body was still trembling slightly because of the trembling, but when he looked at the battlefield in front of him, Akasha found that... he was not as "incompetent" as he imagined.
At least she can help Roddy now!
The gargoyle culled down again, and at the same time, a puppet knight holding a rifle attacked from a distance!
Wellington had no choice but to forcefully use the "war energy" clone to block in front of him, but he was not sure of blocking the double attack in his heart - the long sword slashed, and the gargoyle was pushed by the shock, but the clone on the front could not block the impact of the puppet knight at all, and was directly shattered by the cavalry!
The other party's strength was beyond Wellington's imagination, but at this time his sword was still raised above his head and there was no time to dodge—
Seeing that the armour was about to hit his body, Wellington noticed a golden light flashing in front of him.
"Bang!"
With the muffled sound, he was unable to avoid the attack of the gun, but strangely, this attack did not pierce Wellington's body, but instead knocked him away!
Chapter completed!
