Chapter 425: Bitter Battle

The silver-white blade of the sword sliced through the flesh, bringing up a streak of blood. The soldier covered his throat and fell to the ground with his mouth open. After two convulsions, there was no response. Nadia didn't even look at the unlucky guy who had fallen to the ground, but quickly drew her sword and slashed at another enemy next to her. The glow of the Holy White erupted again, forcing back the soldiers who were about to rush up from the side, and then Nadia took a step back, dodging a crossbow arrow that whizzed through the air.

Although Nadia's whole body was completely enveloped in holy light at this moment, it was a pity that her enemies were not demons, let alone undead creatures. To those who are pure humans, these holy lights are no different from the light emitted by a single lamp, perhaps somewhat dazzling, but there is nothing deadly evil. Naturally, they can't scream and flee at the light like ghosts, or become weak and weak like demons -- in a way, they are more formidable enemies than those monsters.

But Nadia didn't care, she continued to deal with these bandits with the help of the charred wreckage of the gate, if it was the same as before, maybe there would be some trouble in this situation where two fists are invincible to four hands. But now, after the adventures of the Wild West and a series of previous experiences, Nadia is no longer what it used to be.

"Whew!!"

A mercenary circled behind the paladin from the left corner, and he silently drew his dagger and lunged at Nadia as she was fully focused on fighting in front of her, her long arms spreading out like gibbons leaping through the trees, trying to suppress the enemy in front of her.

And at that moment when he was about to catch Nadia. The paladin suddenly slammed into the side as if she had eyes on her back, and the mercenary who had missed the target suddenly tumbled forward with a tumbling stumbling slump. He hadn't even had time to get up yet. I saw the blade in Nadia's hand flash a cold light in front of him, and the next moment. The mercenary only felt a cold pain in his lower back, and then his eyes went dark, and he didn't know anything.

The flying sword light rose from the ground, and with a series of afterimages, it swooped forward in the middle of the slashing mercenary's body, forcing the others to retreat one after another. At the same time, another wave of crossbow arrows whistled out of the air and flew towards Nadia. However, only a few bits of fire were raised on the barrier in front of her, and then they returned in vain.

But for Nadia, that's not the trickiest problem.

"Boom, boom!!"

Three flying arrows of fire slashed through the sky and slammed into the paladin's barrier, causing Nadia's figure to shake a few times. She gritted her teeth and turned her head to look at the hillside on the other side. I saw that the black-robed mage just now was standing there under the protection of a group of soldiers, muttering something to himself.

Damn mage!

Seeing the mage, Nadia couldn't help but bite her lip. While the soldiers were not much of a threat to her, the mage was a different story. Originally, Nadia planned to be able to subdue the other party at the first time, but she didn't expect that the mage would immediately retreat when she saw that the situation was not good. And when Nadia came to her senses, the mage had been protected by the soldiers -- and it seemed that they knew very well that the key to defeating the paladin fell on the mage.

Cunning. Mean, shameless!!

Nadia clenched the sword in her hand and slashed at the enemy in front of her once more, glaring at the black-robed mage. It's not that she hasn't thought about fighting her way out. Then rush straight to the mage and kill him. But whenever she tried to charge, the opponent would switch the target to the buildings in Purple Flower Town, which made it impossible for Nadia to act rashly. And her sword light is for the mage's protective barrier. It doesn't seem to be strong enough to completely break the opponent's guard. This has left Nadia in a passive position, and she is now only able to deal with the bandits here. Nadia didn't even dare to take another half step back, because she knew very well that she would let these guys in. Then the town is going to suffer.

Now Nadia can be said to be in a rather dangerous situation, although her strength is too much higher than the soldiers here, but the mage on the other side has restrained her movements, so that Nadia has to take the defensive. Not only that, but the other party's spells were always able to interfere with her movements at the most opportune time, so Nadia had to be distracted to face this nasty thing.

It's so damnful!!

Thinking of this, Nadia couldn't help gritting her teeth, and then the long sword in her hand moved forward hard, intersecting with a soldier's sword, and the blade shrouded in holy light shattered the long sword in the soldier's hand without hindrance, and then the long sword in Nadia's hand continued to move forward, stabbing hard into the chest of the soldier in front of her. The snow-white sharp sword pierced through the back of his chest, and a streak of blood suddenly flowed out of the blade and dripped to the ground, and then Nadia pushed away the corpse that had lost its breath with one hand, and at the same time swung the sword to the other side, bringing a violent air current, blocking the intention of the three mercenaries to try to sneak attack.

"Hah............ Hah........."

Nadia didn't even know how long it had been, she was sweating profusely and her breathing was starting to get a little crambling, which was not a good sign. While the Light would make her more durable and adept at fighting, there was a lot of manpower to do -- not to mention that almost all of Nadia's holy power was used against magic.

That nasty mage...............

Nadia raised her head and looked at the black-robed mage again, and for some reason, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind - what would Mr. Jenn do if he was here?

This thought only flashed in Nadia's mind, and then she shook her head, with Nadia's understanding of Jenn, she felt that the other party probably wouldn't take these small roles in her eyes at all, for a strong person of Jenn's level, not to mention this kind of mid-level mage, even if it was a legendary mage, I'm afraid he wouldn't be afraid, it seems that he really chose a wrong reference object......... Thinking of this, Nadia couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then she was suddenly stunned.

Why do you think of Jenn?

"Whew!!"

This momentary distraction prevented Nadia from dodging the attack, and when she reacted, she saw a sharp sword slashing head-on at her. Almost instinctively, Nadia raised her long sword horizontally to block the opponent's sword, and with a "ding" sound, sparks flew everywhere. At the same time, a fierce and dazzling holy light suddenly erupted, setting off a violent wave of qi, blowing away the other enemies around the paladin, leaving them far behind.

By the time the wave had gone, a hollow circle had formed on the ground centered on Nadia, and the snow had been completely swept away, revealing the hard, pitch-black earth below. Nadia herself, on the other hand, was half-kneeling on the ground with her sword in her hand, gasping for breath. The originally dazzling holy light on her body also flickered and dimmed at this time, and began to become less bright.

"Whoosh whoosh!!"

A few more bolts flew at her, forcing Nadia to roll backwards and avoid the thrill. And at this time, those soldiers also smirked and surrounded again. Now anyone who is not blind can see that this paladin has reached the stage of running out of oil and running out of lamps, as long as it takes a few moments, then she can only raise her hand and surrender.

A young and beautiful female paladin, it's exciting to think about.

"My lord, that paladin can't do it."

"I see it."

Hearing the words of the soldier next to him, the black-robed mage nodded, then he frowned and pondered for a moment, then snorted coldly.

"Don't hurt her, I'm going to take her back and torture her, understand?"

"Yes, sir."

Hearing the black-robed mage's words, the soldiers next to him suddenly showed a comprehensible expression. As the private soldiers of the Soros family, they naturally had heard of the absurd behavior of this black-robed mage on weekdays, and when they heard him say this at this moment, they didn't know what the other party was thinking. For a while, they suddenly laughed, as the mage's personal entourage, of course they knew that the black-robed mage was definitely planning to drink the soup, but as an entourage, they could also eat some leftovers and cold rice, right? In these years, some of them are good to play, and the requirements are not too high.

Putting his own expression in his eyes, the black-robed mage didn't say anything, he just narrowed his eyes and looked greedily at Nadia in the distance, he really didn't expect that there would be such a stupid paladin who threw himself into the net, although it was a trouble on the Templar side, but it didn't matter, he had a way to make this paladin serve him. At that time, both her body and soul will become her plaything.........

Thinking of this, the mage smiled smugly, and then he reached out to stroke his beard.

But all he touched in his hands was the touch of iron hard.

This is...............

The mage's eyes widened as he stared in front of him—a pitch-black arrow was quietly stopping there, and it went through the mage's throat and shuddered slightly. Seeing this scene, the black-robed mage's eyes widened incredulously, how could this be? He obviously has a protective spell on himself, and ordinary arrows are impossible............... Thinking of this, the black-robed mage raised his head and looked ahead, only then did he realize that the protective barrier that had been protecting him before, I don't know when, had become fragmented.

What's going on here? What's going on?

However, the black-robed mage could no longer get an answer, and then he fell to the ground without any more reaction.

Waste one.

It was only then that Jenn withdrew his shortbow, and then he glanced at the enemy not far down the hill and whistled behind him.

"It's time to attack! Let's go! (To be continued......)
