Chapter 71 The Ring of Prayer
For this lion noble young master, there are not many things he can never forget.
Leon is one of them.
If it hadn't been for Leon's appearance, he should have enjoyed luxurious and warm rooms, mellow wine, gorgeous beauties and flattery from others at a noble salon party in Tomond City, instead of being with a group of rude and dirty mercenaries in this cold wilderness.
"It's you..."
He couldn't help roaring from his throat, like an angry lion.
It's just that Wald forgot that he is not a real lion, just a virtual watch of the lion!
It was also something Leon didn't expect to meet Wald in the enemy's camp.
He assassinated the guards of the horses, launched a whirlwind flying and chopping skill with a tomahawk, cut off more than a dozen horse legs in one go, and ran away all the rest of the horses. He dived into the woods before the enemy reacted.
Leon was originally ready to play a cat-and-mouse game with the other party in the woods, which is his best tactic. As long as the other party is trapped, it is enough to kill all of them.
However, the mercenary captain Ike's decision surprised Leon a little, but this was not out of his original plan. As soon as the mercenaries left, he immediately appeared to track down and look for the fighter.
Unexpectedly, the mercenaries actually left Wald.
"It's me..."
Lao Lei smiled, as if a poor man who had been hungry and thirsty for decades saw the naked young lady, laughing like an evil!
Leon's smile suddenly poured on Wald's head like a basin of ice water, making him realize his situation - all the mercenaries left, and he was the only one in the camp!
In terms of identity, he is a lion noble of the upper clan, far more noble than Leon, a lower clan, but in terms of his own combat effectiveness... Wald knows very well that ten of himself will not be Leon's opponents.
For this, the noble young master was very self-aware, so a handsome face suddenly turned pale and turned around and wanted to escape.
If he wants to run, it also depends on whether Leon gives him a chance.
Wow!
Leon did not hesitate to throw the weapon in his hand, and the heavy tomahawk with terrible power, roared and drew a straight track in the air, cutting at Wald at an amazing speed.
To deal with such a sinister villain, Leon will never give him a chance to escape. It will only be a scourge.
"Ah!"
Wolf only ran a few steps, and the tomahawk chased him and hit him in the back!
But when the axe blade just touched the coat, a bright halo suddenly appeared on Wald's body, which actually bounced off the attack that condensed Leon's strength of at least 90%.
The tomahawk swirled heavily on the forest next to it, and Wald, who was hit by a blow, was knocked a few feet away and fell to the ground with a scream.
What is this? Leon was suddenly shocked and couldn't figure out how to carry his own must-kill blow.
Although he was extremely confused, his movements were not slow at all. He immediately pulled out the tiger sword with his backhand and rushed forward with an arrow.
Three steps and two steps to catch up with the other party, and the raised saber carried a cold light. Leon wanted to see if the miracle just now would appear again.
"Ah! Please, don't kill me!"
Looking at Leon, who was chasing after him fiercely, Wald's fragile psychological defense suddenly collapsed.
The fear of death made him completely give up his dignity and forget his hatred for Leon. He struggled to get up and knelt down: "I know I'm wrong. I'll give you everything you want. I still have money for you..."
His face was covered with mud and broken leaves, and tears and snot flowed down together, which was very cowardly and despicable.
The blade of the tiger's sword stopped next to Wald's throat. The cold murderous atmosphere made a layer of goose bumps on his skin. The noble young master was stiff all over and did not dare to move, for fear of being scratched by the blade, and his appearance was very ridiculous.
"Have money? I heard that you have been kicked out. What money can you have? Do you have it with you now?" Leon held a saber and asked jokingly, "How much is your life worth?"
"I, I still have 2,000 gold coins and the private property of two stores, all of which are in Tormond City..." Wald said pitifully, "I can take you back and get them now, all for you, all of them!"
Do you think I have a low IQ like you? Leon is not going to talk nonsense with him again.
But he stopped as soon as he moved his hand: "Let's talk about the money, what did you use to block my flying axe just now?"
Wold shivered and took off a silver-gray ring from his right ring finger and handed it to Leon with both hands: "This is the ring of prayer, which is sealed with a defense magic, which can be automatically triggered in times of danger."
"It was obtained by my uncle from the secret land of the Holy Land. It is a sacred artifact left over from ancient times. Now I will give it to you. Please forgive me!"
When mentioning his uncle, a trace of resentment flashed in Wald's eyes. Fearing that he would be discovered by Leon, he quickly lowered his head.
It's just that this didn't escape Leon's sharp eyes, and he couldn't help laughing coldly in his heart.
It is not clear where Leon is in the secret place of the Holy Land. It is also the first time he has heard of the name of the Ring of Prayer, but he has heard of the sacred artifacts.
On the Glorious Continent, objects containing magical power, including weapons, armor, jewelry and even daily necessities, are collectively referred to as magic objects, referred to as magic weapons; while special items related to magic and belief in divine power are called sacred objects.
Whether it is a magic weapon or a sacred weapon, it has its own special functions. Some are relatively ordinary things, and some are rare and powerful.
Wold's prayer ring can automatically trigger the protector when the owner is fatally attacked, which undoubtedly shows its value.
With a sneer in his heart, Leon reached out and grabbed the ring of prayer: "I want this ring, as for your life..."
At the moment of the final fate arbitration, Wald raised his head again, with pleading, wings, flattery and other expressions on his face.
The next moment, his expression changed, and there was an unbelievable light in his eyes, staring at Leon.
He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything. A blood stain on his neck was slowly expanding.
"Your life, I want it too!"
Leon said lightly, put away his saber and straightened up, picked up his tomahawk from the next place, and quickly left the mercenary camp.
When Leon's figure completely disappeared into the woods, Wald, who knelt on the ground, took his last breath.
His death was like a drop of water thrown into the river, which did not cause any waves, now or in the future.
.........
At night, the camp on the hill.
Aklan stood on the top of a carriage, looking into the distance with a staff, and the cold wind blowing a thin robe.
He suddenly said, with a trace of excitement in his tone: "The enemy is coming, get ready to fight!"
In the open environment of the plain, he is in a favorable terrain, using two spells: eagle vision and insight. Even at night, the mage can find the movement more than ten miles away with the help of moonlight.
As Leon had expected, the enemy lurking in the dark really ran out.
And they are all running with their feet, and there is no mount! The mage pulled out a faint smile from the corners of his lips, as if he had smelled the breath of victory.
Under him, the rock hammer, the fire hammer and the other two soldiers were unhurriedly loading crossbows, and beside them were a pile of well-stringed crossbows.
This standard crossbow is produced by excellent craftsmen in human countries, with an effective range of nearly 100 meters. With a special three-edged armor-piercing arrow, it can penetrate metal armor at close range, which is far more powerful than the general light crossbow.
In the underground black market of Tomund City, such a standard crossbow costs 30 gold coins, and the cost of 30 crossbows consumes most of Leon's money.
But this high cost is completely worth it.
Xue Ni stood behind and watched the bear hammers preparing for the battle nervously. Leon's absence made her feel a little nervous. Although the rock hammer made her hide in the carriage without having to come out, she still hoped to help a little in the battle with the enemy.
"Sister Xue Ni, wait a minute, you stand here and hand us the crossbow!"
He put the crossbow in his hand on a good string, and the fire hammer smiled at Xue Ni. His optimistic and calm appearance infected the other party, which calmed the rabbit girl's heart a lot.
"Okay..." Xue Ni nodded hard. Her strength was not strong enough to string the crossbow, but it was still not a problem to hand over the crossbow.
This made her feel that she was not so useless, so she was much happier and no longer afraid of the upcoming enemy.
It's just that in her heart, Xue Ni is still a little worried about Leon, who hasn't returned yet.
On this side, at the junction of the woods and the plains, the heavily armed mercenaries are moving forward as fast as possible.
The mercenary captain is in a bad mood. He feels like a fool who has been fooled. His anger can only be vented by killing.
Looking at the camp on the hills in the distance, the other party's carriage was still there, and his anger doubled.
"Brothers, rush to kill them together. All the money earned this time belongs to you. Except for that woman, whoever grabs the trophy will be the one!"
Under the stimulation of money, the morale of the mercenaries soared and shouted and stepped forward.
Although losing their mounts and running on their legs makes them a little uncomfortable, these mercenaries are not ordinary people, and it is not much pressure for them to run quickly with heavy burdens.
Without wasting much time, the mercenaries approached a mile away from the hilly camp.
Determined the target and did not try to escape. They slowed down and reorganized the team. Under the leadership of Eck, they approached the camp in a battle queue!
