A huge black shadow suddenly covered all the space in front of her.
boom!
Geer made close contact with her nose with his forehead. Although there was some pain in his forehead, which must have been red and swollen, it was much better than this beauty who put too much pressure on him.
By touch, Geer could be sure that there was no longer a bulge on the other person's face.
During the violent impact, she first heard a sound like breaking bones, a buzzing in her ears, and the world was spinning for a while, and then extremely violent sore pain suddenly filled her mind, and she couldn't control her tears.
It flowed down, like a torrent that had opened its gates, and everything in front of me was blurry.
But this is not the end.
Just when the smell of blood was still lingering in her mouth and the nauseating feeling hit her wave after wave, she blurred through her tears and saw a big, thick black pestle heading straight for her face.
Bang!
Having lost her ability to dodge, she was accurately hit again. Before another wave of severe pain swept through her brain and deprived her of all her sensory abilities, she finally saw clearly that the black pestle was Geer's elbow.
This time the situation was even worse. After being hit hard by Geer's elbow, traces of blood oozed from her mouth, corners of her eyes, and ears. Her body was shaking with the shock of her brain, and she could no longer maintain her strength.
If you lose the balance of your body and your knees lose their support, you will have to kneel down.
With this elbow strike, Geer had already retracted the straight knife. Just when her body was still controlled by the natural reaction of pain, the straight knife thrust out, with the tip of the knife sinking into her chin and protruding from the top of her head.
.
Everything solidified here.
Geer pushed away her hand that was still holding the hilt of the rapier that had penetrated his belly, and took a few steps back. The straight knife also withdrew from her body following Geer's movements.
Dots of bright red blood spilled on the floor.
Bang! Bang!
Two banging sounds.
One was the sound of her hitting the ground when she fell to the ground, and the look of disbelief was forever frozen on her face. The other was the sound of Geer's knee colliding with the ground when he knelt down on one knee.
Seeing that the most powerful enemy he had ever encountered was killed by his own hands, excitement and pain hit Geer's nerves at the same time, causing the corners of his mouth to twitch in an arc that he didn't know whether it was due to joy or pain.
Taking a deep breath, Geer used his steady right hand to slowly pull out the stabbing sword from his abdomen without further aggravating the injury. Although after careful calculation, Geer had avoided soft organs and places with dense blood vessels,
This injury still seriously affected his condition.
"Strength: 1.17 (1.43), agility 1.32 (1.71), physique 0.93 (1.57), spirit 2.1 (2.16), status: injured. It is recommended to treat him as soon as possible."
This is the data fed back by the body monitoring system. It can be said that both Geer and this mysterious enemy suffered losses. However, this beauty's luck was even worse and she turned into a corpse.
But this is not the time to lament this. Geer knows very well that his target is Count Carter. He wants to kill this mysterious woman just because she is the biggest obstacle to killing Count Carter.
Covering the wound on his abdomen, Geer stood up and looked around. The cavalry he brought were in a fierce battle with those who were assisting Earl Carter. There were not many people on both sides. For a while, they were evenly matched and it was impossible to tell the difference.
, and the fact that the winner has been decided on Geer's side has not yet been noticed by the others.
After scanning the battlefield for a while, Geer quickly found traces of Earl Carter. He was walking towards an empty horse with the help of his guard knight, and behind him were two entangled warriors.
Give him some time, maybe Geer won't be able to kill him today.
Geer retrieved his bow and arrows from the ground, carefully pulled out a special pure metal arrow, put it on the metal longbow, and with a squeak, the bowstring was stretched to its maximum limit.
"farewell."
…
Earl Carter is a very traditional and conservative person. As the leader of the traditional aristocracy in Jobna County, he has always regarded maintaining the tradition of the aristocracy as the highest goal. He deeply hates the phenomenon of the royal family invading the rights of the traditional aristocracy caused by the industrial revolution.
, thinking that this is completely the source of unrest.
But he is just an earl in a remote place. Although he has money, land and people, he is still far from being able to influence the entire country. Therefore, he has been doing his best to suppress the emerging industrial forces in Jobna County and trying to maintain the economy in his territory.
Aristocratic tradition.
But as the domestic industrial group grows larger, even the remote north begins to undergo subtle changes. It becomes increasingly difficult to control the people's minds. Every day, many people sneak away to those industrially developed places, and the fields begin to
The land was deserted, and the people under the rule began to become scarce. What was even more frightening was that some nobles also opened factories and secretly recruited those who had fled!
This is blasphemy! This is betrayal!
This completely exceeded Earl Carter's psychological bottom line, but he was powerless. All this caused him immense pain, as if his childhood faith was slowly being broken in front of him. The heart-rending pain was what he felt all night long.
Insomnia at night.
Until the Priory found him.
Earl Carter never thought that there was such a great organization in this country. The belief that everyone adheres to is also the belief that he has always held - to maintain the tradition of the nobility, and this organization has existed even longer than the history of this country.
Even further, the purpose is to fight against the royal family and safeguard the rights of the nobility.
Earl Carter was excited. He suddenly realized that he was not alone. He had too many like-minded comrades. Yes, they were comrades. This was a new term given to him by the person who led him to join the monastery. Everyone could talk and criticize together.
The royal family's greed has no end, the nobles who betrayed tradition are short-sighted, and the people are ignorant and only know interests. At that time, Earl Carter was happy, and he believed that the ideal world he dreamed of would one day come true.
With the support of the Priory, Earl Carter once again has strong control over Jobna County. Those nobles who dare to betray tradition must either shut down their factories and return to the ranks of traditional nobles, or simply disappear without a trace.
Without a trace, it was as if such a family had never appeared in this world. People were prohibited from moving around at will. For a period of time, there were not enough execution stakes at the gate of Mora City, and there were swarms of people in the sky.
The fat crows in the team have red eyes.
Jobna County has stabilized, and Earl Carter is intoxicated by the "peaceful" atmosphere.
But this is not enough. How can a Jobna County so "happy" satisfy Earl Carter's great ideal? Making the whole country and even the whole world become like this is the greatest achievement.
At this time, the Priory brought news - there is an unimaginably huge gold mine in Jobna County, a gold mine that can subvert the entire country's economy. As long as they master it, they will take a step closer to their dreams.
Big strides.
But there is a problem. This gold mine is under the Winterset Castle in the Colbenson Territory. The ruler of the Colbenson Territory, Baron Andre, has never obeyed the leadership of Earl Carter, and his tough character is even more famous.
In the entire north, if you want to get gold mines through him, there is absolutely no hope.
But this trouble is not a problem at all in Earl Carter's eyes. Once the stumbling block is kicked away, no one can block his way!
Everything was going very smoothly, but a variable appeared inexplicably, a waste that had never been taken into consideration by Earl Carter, which ruined everything.
When the manor was attacked, although he was a little panicked at first, Earl Carter soon calmed down. He guessed that there might be something wrong with the operation against the Colbenson Territory, but it didn't matter. As long as he was still alive, then the entire appointment would be over.
He still has the final say in Bernard County, and everything will eventually return to the right path.
But he didn't expect that after leaving the tunnel, he would be chased by Geer, and he almost died in Geer's hands. But it didn't matter. According to the agreement, when something happened in the manor, the people from the Priory would come to make an appointment.
The Priory did not disappoint him. It rushed over at the last moment. The leader was a master he had seen. Even Sinclair, the strongest knight under him, was no match. She was in the way.
Well, Earl Carter is very relieved.
"Just wait, I will let you know that you regret it!"
Before mounting his horse, Earl Carter looked sharply behind him and made an oath in his heart.
However, he was shocked to find that the master he relied on had fallen to the ground motionless, and the young man who had ruined all his plans was opening his long bow towards him, his posture like an eternal statue, with the metal arrow pointing at him.
He could feel the chill even from such a distance, and a large number of goosebumps suddenly appeared on his body.
The next moment, the black stream of light passed through the limitations of space and time and appeared in front of him instantly.
There was a slight chill between his brows, as if something had been taken away, but before he had time to think about it, Earl Carter's thinking was paused forever. A person with such a fist-sized hole that penetrates the front and back of his head would not have the ability to think.
of.
Geer put down his longbow with satisfaction, and the arrow he just shot accurately hit Earl Carter between the eyebrows. The specially-made arrow shot directly through his head, making it impossible for him to survive.
The death of Earl Carter caused the reinforcements of the Priory to exclaim. They turned to look at Geer and saw that the invincible leader in their eyes died at Geer's feet - they were not naive to think that it was
Fell asleep.
Their morale was greatly demoralized and they were immediately overwhelmed by the cavalry brought by Geer. In addition, Geer was shooting cold arrows from the side. Within a few minutes, the people of the Priory fled in all directions. Only the knight who accompanied Count Carter was the only one.
Launched a suicidal charge towards Geer.
This unexpected encounter finally came to a good end after Geer shot the loyal knight through the neck.
