"What is supposed to come will always come. []" Roger had already prepared for this and didn't take it too seriously. What he was most worried about was Bonnie's safety. As the fire in the Viscount Mansion had been extinguished, he murmured to himself:
"What happened to this girl is really worrying."
While Roger was worried about Bonnie, the captain of the Viscount Guard was planning a counterattack. It would be difficult for him to defeat the opponent in a head-on battle. At this time, he was saying bitterly to his subordinates and Wood's bodyguard: "Although your Excellency is already dead,
People are asking for help from outside, but we don’t know if we can hold on until reinforcements arrive. The young man with black hair on the wall is the enemy’s commander. As long as we kill him, we will be under much less pressure in the future.”
"But it's not easy to kill the opponent's commander." A bodyguard said without confidence: "We can't even get close to the gate, so it's impossible to rush up the wall to kill him."
"Of course it's impossible to rush up to him and attack him." The captain was indeed loyal to Wood. He told the people around him word by word: "I decided to secretly climb up the wall and assassinate the other party's commander, but for the sake of safety, I was left alone.
If you can't do it alone, there must be someone else to cooperate. Which of you is willing to go with me?"
As soon as the captain finished speaking, several people around him fell into an awkward silence. Some of these people didn't want to carry out such a dangerous mission, and some wanted to but knew they didn't have the strength to sneak up the wall and assassinate the other party's commander.
Not just anyone can do it, and those who don't have the strength above bronze level can't even think about it.
Seeing that everyone around him was silent, the captain couldn't help but said angrily: "The lord is usually very kind to you, but at this critical moment no one is willing to stand up for him. I am really disappointed!"
At this moment, a bodyguard standing in the corner said in a loud voice: "I'll go with you!"
"Okay, finally there is still someone who remembers the oath of allegiance to the lord!" The captain said happily: "I will ask the soldiers of the Viscount Guard to launch a rogue attack to cover us now!"
The bodyguard who put down his armor mask didn't talk nonsense. He just nodded and silently followed the captain out.
Not long after, a group of soldiers came out of the Viscount's Mansion. Under the loud shouts of the officers, they formed a formation and planned to attack again. Roger, who was on the wall guarding against enemy attacks from outside, immediately discovered this situation.
, couldn't help but wonder with some confusion: "What do these guys want to do? Attack alone without foreign aid? Are they planning to die?"
Although he felt strange in his heart, Roger immediately ordered his soldiers to prepare for battle. Since the enemy wanted to die, of course Roger wouldn't mind. The more mistakes the opponent made, the better it would be for him, and the more soul power he could get.
There will be more.
However, Roger, who was completely focused on the soldiers, did not notice that two figures quietly came out of the Viscount's Mansion and quickly climbed up the wall.
The two men were very skilled, and they were already on the wall in the blink of an eye. Roger's soldiers didn't even notice them. The two of them moved around on the tall and thick wall of the Viscount's Mansion, using various fortifications on it.
He took cover and quickly approached Roger, who was completely unaware of this.
The captain rushed ahead, followed closely by the bodyguard who had lowered his armor and mask. There was only two or three steps between them. The captain took the time to look back at the bodyguard, his eyes filled with admiration.
At first, he was worried that the bodyguard's poor strength would drag him down, but judging from the current situation, such worries were completely unnecessary.
The bodyguard is also wearing a set of inlaid armor, but he is no less powerful in terms of speed and agility. From this point alone, the captain can conclude that this small guy is definitely not worse than him in strength, and may even be slightly better than him.
.This gave the captain full confidence in successfully assassinating the opponent's leader. He believed that if two such strong men suddenly took action, even if the opponent was also a bronze-level strong man, they could kill him with one blow.
The two approached Roger covertly and quickly. They were less than twenty steps away from him. At this time, Roger was still paying attention to the movements of the other side's soldiers. He found that the soldiers all retreated after bluffing for a while.
He didn't seem to be planning to continue the attack. This made Roger full of doubts and couldn't help but mutter to himself: "What the hell? Why did you change your mind again..."
Before Roger could finish speaking, he suddenly felt his heart skip a beat, and all the muscles in his body immediately tensed up. As a strong bronze man, he already had a certain sense of the coming danger, and this was when life was threatened.
Warning signs of threats.
Without any time to think, Roger instinctively jumped back two steps and at the same time took out the sword hidden in the castle warehouse and prepared to meet the enemy. Almost at the same moment, the captain rushed to a place less than three steps away from Roger.
, shouted loudly at him: "Suffer death!"
Just as he yelled, the captain's long sword was slashed at Roger's head. Although he was not sure whether the sword could succeed, he believed that his full blow could at least force the enemy into panic. And as long as the target was
A moment of panic was enough for another assassin to take his life.
The facts were indeed as the captain expected. Although Roger dodged his attack in embarrassment, he was already staggering and unsteady. Under such circumstances, Roger could not avoid the attack of another assassin. As long as the captain's
When his accomplices seized this opportunity, Roger was doubtful.
The captain's companion did not disappoint him, seizing this opportunity and stabbing Roger in the vest. At this moment, the captain's pupils were excited and dilated, as if he had already seen Roger lying in a pool of blood.
However, to the captain's surprise, the bodyguard's sword grazed Roger's ribs at the last moment, and did not hurt him at all. Instead, it stabbed directly towards his chest without any delay.
"Damn it!" The captain cursed in his heart, and quickly raised his sword to block. However, the sword he just struck was too hard, and he had already lost his center of gravity. It was difficult to prevent this sharp sword. Although the captain barely managed to avoid it, he had already lost his center of gravity.
The vital part of the chest was opened, but he was still stabbed deeply in the lower abdomen.
"Ah!" the captain screamed and backed away.
Although Roger had just escaped the opponent's fatal blow, he, who was rich in combat experience, did not let go of such a good opportunity. The sword in his hand thrust out like lightning. Driven by his fighting spirit, Roger's sword penetrated easily.
The captain's breastplate pierced deeply into his chest.
"Er..." The captain lowered his head with the sword on his chest, then raised his head and stared at Roger opposite, with an unbelievable expression on his face.
Roger didn't have time to talk nonsense with the opponent. He summoned up his fighting spirit and flicked his wrist. The sword quickly stirred in the captain's chest several times, causing a bright flower of blood to burst out from his chest, and completely cutting off the opponent's life.
While returning the sword, Roger's elbow was knocked back hard. He did not forget that there was an enemy behind him. Although the enemy injured one of his own for unknown reasons, Roger would not be careless because of this.
The bodyguard behind Roger stabbed the captain and immediately retreated. Roger's attack did not hurt the opponent at all. Of course he would not give up. He twisted around and was about to pounce on him, but the bodyguard suddenly took off his helmet and shouted:
"Do you really still want to fight?"
This bodyguard is none other than Bonnie, who has not been heard from for a long time. Because of the actions just now, the female knight's breathing was a little rapid, and her pretty face was slightly red. At this time, she was looking at Roger with a half-smile, obviously also thinking about it.
Happy to be reunited with him.
Roger dropped his sword, stepped forward, hugged Bonnie tightly and said, "It's great that you're okay. I was worried about you."
Although Bonnie felt a little embarrassed to embrace Roger in public, she could hear the sincere affection in his words and was moved to let him go. The two hugged each other tightly on the high wall,
I feel a touch of warmth in this crisis-ridden moment.
Just as Roger and Bonnie were immersed in a world that belonged only to them, the situation outside the wall changed again. Soldiers scattered throughout Karachi arrived at the previous magic fireworks and gathered towards the Viscount Mansion. Seeing
The door was closed tightly, and many people were outside shouting for people inside to open the door. Some smart people realized that something was wrong, and shouted to remind others to prepare for a fight.
Before these people could finish their words, a burst of arrows were fired from the wall and arrow tower. Unprepared, many soldiers outside the wall fell to the ground with arrows. In this way, everyone understood that the wall had been occupied by the enemy.
Occupied, everyone could not help but be shocked.
The soldiers outside the wall are all members of the Viscount Guard, and their most important task is to protect the safety of Viscount Wood. But now the person they are protecting is surrounded by others, and his life may be in danger at any time. The thought of what might happen to the Viscount himself is unfortunate.
These soldiers were all anxious about the punishment they would receive, and they all clamored to attack the Viscount's Mansion to protect the safety of the lord.
The soldiers of the Viscount Guard were all very capable, and they were even more loyal to Wood. Although they knew that storming the Viscount Mansion would pay a heavy price, they still quickly launched an attack on the enemy. However, in their haste, these soldiers did not do anything at all.
There are only a few siege equipment, even the simplest long ladders. How easy is it to break into the Viscount's Mansion?
The walls of the Viscount's Mansion were high and strong. The soldiers usually felt safe when they were standing guard on them, but now they suffered a lot when they tried to attack the city. Under Roger's command, his soldiers easily attacked
Several enemy attacks were repulsed. The Viscount Guards achieved nothing except leaving hundreds of corpses outside the wall.
"Bonnie, stay here and don't let those soldiers come in." Seeing that the soldiers outside were not a big threat to him, Roger immediately said to the female knight: "I will take someone to settle the accounts with Old Wood!"
