Volume 3: The Vortex of Strife Chapter 123: Escape on a Moonlit Night (Part II)
Adie was also thrown off the horse, she was cut by a sharp stone on the neck, but the sharp pain did not make the girl with amblyopia cry, she just slowly crawled to Avi's side, gently shaking Avi, who was still in a state of vertigo.
Avi covered the side of his head with one hand, the impact just now made Avi unable to distinguish between southeast and northwest, and after being hit on the head, Avi's limbs became a little weak, and he didn't know what the reason was. Those pursuers are already on the verge of catching up, and if they don't react immediately at this time, they will definitely be caught.
"Brother Avi... What should we do?" said in Avi's whisper, and one of the fastest cavalrymen was already less than ten meters away from them.
Avi suddenly remembered the bottle of pink potion that could make the black dog extremely energetic, he stretched out his soft hand, slowly took out the pink potion from his arms, and poured it directly into his mouth.
"Come on, he can't walk anymore!Both of them can be captured alive!" The light cavalry who walked the fastest took the knight's sword, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he picked up Ah Die, who was squatting beside Avi, and wanted to turn around and hand it to his companion behind him. Who knew that before he could hand over Ah Die, Ah Wei had already drawn out the black blade, pierced the cavalryman's throat from behind, and killed him with one blow!
Adie almost fell from the hands of the dead light cavalry, but Avi caught the other man with a single arrow and gently put him behind him. Avi, who had just become weak from the head injury, was suddenly full of inexhaustible energy, and holding the black blade in his hand was as light as holding a piece of paper.
"You just stay here! wait for me to deal with the enemy!" Die nodded behind Avi, and Avi rushed at the cavalry with a black blade.
To the east, Felisty had already eliminated all the hussars who were chasing her, and although they had been knocked out of their horses, Felisty did not kill them, but only cut their legs with their knightly swords, preventing them from pursuing her. Felistie picks up a torch for Michelle to hold, and after discussing it with Xiaomi, she decides to go to Avi.
On the way west to find Avi, they also encountered a small number of light cavalry, but in the darkness of the night, they could not avoid the darts in Felisty's hands. It didn't take long for Felisty to hear the cries of fighting in the distant hills, which should be where Avi was.
"There's no chance, give up," Evan's voice suddenly appeared in front of Felisty, "just put that long sword down, you can go as you want." β
Felisty took Millet's torch, only to realize that Evan had just dismounted, ready to deal with Avi, who was there with a few light cavalry.
"Really? I thinkβ" Felisty held a torch in one hand and threw out a few darts as she spoke. Except for the one that flew into his face, which was blocked by Evan's short knife, the rest of the darts could not penetrate the light gray plate armor on Evan's body, as if they had hit a wall.
"You're just a student at Kestrel Academy, but your abilities make me doubt your true identity..."Evan said as he approached the red-haired girl, holding a dagger in one hand, wary of possible darts.
Felistie thought about it for a moment and jumped off her horse, pulling the artificial life weapon from her back.
"Is this sword Cynthia'... Wen Lin had really concealed some of the truth, and he dared to do this..."Evan stared at the long sword, the sword body of the long sword was divided into two completely different sides, one side was smooth and immaculate, and the other side was like burnt skin, which made people feel an indescribable unease.
Felisty didn't know that Evan had seen this sword for the first time, and in fact, she didn't plan to attack Evan with a long sword, first, she didn't know what special powers this artificial life weapon had, and second, she just used the long sword as a tool to attract the attention of the other party. Sure enough, Evan was immediately attracted by "Cynthia", and he didn't even notice the red-haired girl's sudden dart, and was directly knocked out of the short knife in his hand.
"A very powerful girl... But do you know why I was able to command all of Mallot's infantry?"
"There is no interest in knowing. Felisty threw the darts with her other hand in quick succession, but Evan was not injured at all when he was shielding his face with his steel arm guards.
"Because no one in this kingdom can beat me when he stands on the ground with his feet!" As soon as Evan finished speaking, he kicked his legs and rushed towards Felisty, as fast as a frightened frog, and jumped directly into the air in front of Felisty! However, Evan grabbed the darts directly with the palm of his hand, and squeezed them hard, and the darts that had been reduced to pieces were spilled back to Felisty.
Felistie rolled backwards to avoid the debris flying back, and she noticed that Michelle had ridden past Evan and headed in Avi's direction.
She threw the dart as she stepped back, but Evan's gloves could easily block or catch the sharp dart, and the red-haired girl's housekeeping skills had nothing to do with this fast guy! Just as Evan was about to grab Felisty's arm, the red-haired girl slashed at Evan with a backhand, but Evan grabbed the sword with both hands.
Evan tugged hard at Cynthia, and Felistie immediately felt a force like a brute bull, and although she let go in time, she still fell forward. By the time she reacted, the sword was already around her neck.
It's just that before Evan could speak, what he saw Felistie gradually turned into Michelle, "How is it possible... How could I recognize someone..."
Felisti's transfiguration magic didn't last a few seconds, she threw out several more darts while Evan was stunned! Such a close distance and illusion made Evan unable to resist, even if he tried to block the dart with one hand, he was still a step too late, and the dart shot directly into Evan's face!
The red-haired girl had already stepped back a few meters, and she looked at Evan, who was standing motionless, and guessed that the deadly dart had killed the other party. When Evan lowered the hand that was covering his face, Felistie saw Evan biting the dart with his teeth, but there was already blood on his lips, presumably stabbing his tongue.
By the time Evan and Felisty were fighting, Avi's side had already eliminated several light cavalry. The black blade became so sharp after killing the first person that it could easily cut through the knight's sword and other armor. Coupled with the body with endless physical strength and energy, those light cavalry were defeated and retreated by Avi, and even some light cavalry saw that the situation was not right, and immediately turned over and wanted to distance themselves from Avi.
After eating the bottle of pink powder, in addition to his strength and energy, Avi's eyes also became extraordinarily good, even if it was only a few torches and the light of the moon, he could clearly see the every move of those light cavalry. The hussar, who had just turned on his horse, had not yet pulled the reins when he was hit by a javelin thrown by Avi.
"Avi, I'll take Avi first!" Michelle didn't know when he rode a war horse not far behind Avi, and Avi also unknowingly rushed down from the rocky hills, "Go help Sister Felisty!
Avi wanted to say something back, but his throat was so dry that he couldn't make a sound. Although Michelle is only nine years old, she quickly disappeared from view after she helped Adie onto the horse.
Evan and Felistie had already distanced themselves, and Evan, who had an injured tongue, didn't dare to act rashly, because he didn't know why he saw Felistie as Michelle, otherwise he was so embarrassed that he almost died at the hands of the girl. He picked up the short knife, holding a long sword in one hand and a short knife in the other, and slowly approached Felisty, who was hiding in the distance.
"I'll be your opponent!" Avi shouted and rushed at Evan, but before Evi could touch Evan, Evan slashed Avi's chest with a backhand, just enough to break the bottle of black powder hidden in his arms.
The powder was sprinkled on the ground, and Felistie, who was standing in the distance, realized what it was in the dim darkness.
"Pounce!" Fibersty threw the torch in her hand at the puddle of powder between Evan and Avi, and Evan wanted to continue attacking Avi, but the torch collided with the black powder, emitting a dazzling fire and a loud bang.
Felistie covered her nose and rushed towards Avi, who was blown down, and directly carried Avi's shoulders to take the other party away. Evan was too close to the black powder, causing his clothes to burn, and he lost his sight and hearing in both ears for a while. Evan, whose face was covered in black and ash, closed his eyes and calmly flapped the flames on his body, and by the time his eyesight recovered, Avi and Felistie had already disappeared, probably running away on their horses.
Avi was stunned by the explosion of the powder, and Felisty found a random warhorse, then grabbed Avi's hands around her waist and rode her horse to the north. It wasn't until she had completely turned over the rugged hills that the red-haired girl looked back to check on Avi.
Avi had a top-down scar on his chest, and there was some black ash and gravel on it, presumably from the powder explosion. Unable to wake up Avi, Felisty continued to gallop and fled north.
By the time Avi opened his eyes from the coma, it was already the night of the second day. Instead of taking Avi to town, Felisty found a mountain stream to hide.
"Come, eat some. Felisty handed over some wild fruits when Avi woke up, her face dirty, and her neat and supple red bangs were messy.
As soon as Avi tried to sit up, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and he touched his upper body with his hand, only to find that he was not wearing a shirt, only some strange, shredded leaf fragments.
"Don't move! You have a wound on your chest, I have put some herbs on you, those herbs are very precious, don't waste them on me!"
Avi didn't dare to move this time, but just stretched out a hand and took a few green wild fruits, and slowly stuffed them into his mouth.
"Did we escape?"
"You and I escaped, but the others didn't know how. Felistie sat by the fire, unwounded, but tired more tormenting than wounds.
Avi closed his eyes, and in addition to feeling the pain in his chest, his brain was also a little confused, and he didn't know if it was a side effect of the pink powder.
"Why are you going to help Michelle and Die?" Avi blurted out at the thought of the question.
Felistie broke off a stick in her hand and threw it directly into the fire, "I don't know, maybe it's because I feel empathy." β
