The Kramer is a great sword.

Although Henry's skills are very good, and his height and physical strength can fully bear it, a big sword with an astonishing length of 1.5 meters still cannot be as flexible as a one-handed sword or a one-and-a-half-handed sword.

A weapon of this size is actually used more like a pole weapon than a sword.

Like a spear or an axe, the ideal way to use a greatsword is to use its long attack range to create an inaccessible "no man's land" where the enemy can reach smaller weapons in their hands. Cut down the enemy and kill him before he can reach enough distance.

If the weapon is not the same sword as the opponent's weapon, there are two ways to deal with them: The safest solution is to keep a certain distance and induce the opponent to attack. Since the size and weight of the sword are larger than ordinary weapons, as long as you can avoid the attack, each swing of the opponent will inevitably consume more energy than you. When the opponent starts to show signs of fatigue, mistakes and omissions will appear.

This is the solution that most ordinary people would choose when dealing with opponents they don't understand and use large weapons. For those who have amazing physical abilities, are very proficient in combat skills, and are extremely confident and experienced in dodge and close combat, they usually choose the simpler and clearer active attack. Sprint to the opponent's side at high speed to use your strengths to offset the enemy's weaknesses, and use concise yet varied continuous small attacks to hit the opponent until they are completely unable to react.

Once a person who is good at using wide-open and wide-open weapons is approached by someone who is good at small changes in continuous attacks, he usually has a narrow escape. This was the case when Geronimo's giant sword was suppressed before, and at this moment, Clay in Henry's hand In the eyes of the other party, Merle was just a slightly more difficult challenge - that's why the people behind him leisurely handed over the task of dealing with this tall northerner to their captain. A purple-branded mercenary, three blue-branded mercenaries, and a dozen green-branded mercenaries all held weapons and started to kill Mira and the others.

"Boom - bang!" Lao Juan and Federo had just returned from hunting without even putting down their bows. At this moment, they straightened their bows and nocked arrows. However, these mercenaries who came were not fools. They had expected this and had already been led by several people. A shield with a pointed base formed a defense line. When a low-quality wooden arrow without an iron arrowhead was shot up, the tip of the arrow shattered and broke. It could not even penetrate its surface. After just firing a few shots, Old Juan raised his hand and made the enemy angry. Phaedrus stopped.

There are not many arrows left, and now is not the time to waste them. He pulled out the hunting knife from his waist, and Mira and the other two blue-brand mercenaries tried to protect the team's flanks. The people from the Badi Merchant Group, who had the numerical advantage, looked at the struggling people with smiles on their faces. Many people's eyes especially fell on our Luoan girl standing on the left, and the malicious meaning in it made them... She raised her little eyebrows.

"Haha." The other purple mercenary sneered, and then removed the mercenary badge from his waist. The reason why so many of them appeared wearing mercenary badges was obviously because they didn't know before. Who is the person who lit up the white smoke here? It's strange to say that although most mercenaries themselves are not good people, when people see people who have been certified by the mercenary group and wear official badges, they will always subconsciously think that they are good people.

Due to this kind of mentality, the mercenary thugs of the Badi Merchant Group naturally wear badges when operating in the field, so that when they meet people, they can explain that they are mercenaries performing tasks-and once After they confirmed the target and took off their mercenary badges and started taking action, even if there were other people passing by nearby, they would only think that these people were bandits rather than professional mercenaries.

No one will be kept alive. Even if the bad reputation is known to many people in the industry, and some of the more famous ones like the purple-brand mercenary who led the team this time, Christo, who calls himself Gale, are also known to everyone. Due to their identity and the power of the Badi Merchant Group, and most importantly, they can bring many visible benefits. Many high-level personnel, including the mercenary guild and the nobles of the southern city-state, did not annihilate them. It is secretly supporting their existence.

This is also the reason why these people can swagger in and out of towns. In the southern border where interests are paramount, if you are rich and powerful, you will see only obedient people and the beauty of singing and dancing. But if you stand on the side of interests, Only when the opposite becomes the party being exploited and plundered will you truly realize the coldness and cruelty here.

"Dekamiku Laai, Otas Percencher (let me play with her, leave the rest to you)." The purple mercenary turned back to the people behind him and said this in Laman language Said. Mira couldn't understand what he was saying, but she could clearly see that the other party smiled, then rotated his wrist in a show-off manner, and then immediately stabbed her chest with a knife.

"Ding - Cang -" Mila, who had already assumed a mid-plow defensive posture, decisively deflected the knife - successfully blocking the purple mercenary's blow, allowing Fedro behind him to still Euphemio looked at her blankly. But the girl herself didn't feel happy at all. Instead, she frowned - the other party was teasing her - the Luoan girl immediately judged this fact. As the opponent chooses as the first attack, the best target point for a direct thrust should be the throat rather than the chest. Attacks that are more deadly and close to the line of sight are more difficult to block. Even if the opponent successfully blocks it, the distance can be closed.

'Being underestimated -' The girl had a trace of anger and dissatisfaction in her heart. In addition, these people who suddenly appeared had previously decided to destroy them. Fear and tension were accompanied by emotions such as hatred. The thought quickly came to her mind - but she did not use this power to slash at least in terms of momentum, as most others would do.

The other party once again rotated his wrist and looked at him teasingly with ease. A dozen other mercenaries began to rush towards Lao Juan and the others. These people wisely avoided Mira. Fedro behind him was anxious. He grabbed the hot iron pot and threw it towards them. There is an enemy in front of you, an enemy far more powerful than yourself; behind you and other places there is a lot of noise, the environment is noisy, the pressure is huge, a lot of thoughts flashed through the lightning, but in the end Mira remembered it again The posture of my own teacher every time he was in battle——

calm.

Calm and composed, like the calm inland sea of ​​Morbigas.

"Huh--" She controlled her breathing intentionally, and then slowly stepped out with her left foot.

"Chel (what)?" Realizing that this girl might not be as fun as he thought, the purple mercenary was momentarily shaken, but the next second he glanced to the left and saw the scene that shocked him even more - —And these things are the last things you should do on the battlefield.

There is no room for distraction in the ever-changing battle, even if it is an elite mercenary with a purple card, even if the opponent is just a petite teenage girl.

He shouldn't look away either.

"Clang - Cha Cha -" An ordinary long thrust. The purple mercenary reacted and separated it with the long knife in his hand. He was horrified by the girl's accuracy and calmness. This thrust thrust There was no sway at all. If he didn't get out of the way, he would be directly stabbed in the throat. But what made him sweat even more was that after that, when he tried to withdraw the weapon, the sword in the opponent's hand was like a gangrene in the tarsus. He usually followed the move and stabbed his chest again.

"Qiang Dang——" In a hurry, he shook off the opponent's sword and stepped back. The faceless purple mercenary was dripping with cold sweat. In the moment of life and death, his previous ease was gone. Only then did I start to really look at this girl seriously. On the other hand, our white-haired girl saw that the other person had distanced herself, so she naturally put away her posture, lowered her center of gravity, and pulled her right foot back, integrating her whole body and the long sword into another starting position.

——Obviously, Mira understood the characteristics of the half-handed sword in her hand. She did not adopt a wide-open and wide-open chopping posture when facing the lighter and stronger long knife. At this moment, the white-haired girl in Luo An turned sideways, raised her left hand flat and made a fist and pulled it back towards her chest. She held the sword in one hand with her right hand and placed the blade flat on her elbow and arm. The tip of the sword pointed straight at the opponent opposite.

Advanced swordsmanship starting position: key position.

A half-handed sword is definitely not as good as a long sword in terms of ability to make consecutive cuts. In addition, due to her age and gender, if she rushes forward and engages in a duel, she will definitely lose. So Mira decisively chose the jab-style start, which required higher accuracy, mentality and control. At this moment, her heart was calm, but on the contrary, Zi, who was older and should have more experience, The brand mercenary began to pant at this moment. He was defeated in front of a little girl who was just a blue card and didn't even have any armor and was only wearing thin clothes. Although he knew that everyone was in battle now, probably not many people had time to pay attention. He himself still felt a burning pain on his face.

Coupled with the shock that the completely unequal battle behind Mira brought to him, the minds of the purple mercenaries were filled with many complex thoughts that were detrimental to the battle - when Mira changed again When he stabbed towards him with his raised hand, he was unable to react in time.

"Clang - Dang -" The long knife held in one hand could not completely block the sharp steel sword. Although the sword thrust by the white-haired girl was deflected, it still cut deeply through the mercenary's sword. She cut the flesh of her hand and shoulder decisively and pulled it back, deepening the position of the wound. The sword-wielding hand of the purple mercenary, who was in pain, dropped weakly and lost his frontal defense for an instant, but Mi Instead of advancing, he retreated and decisively distanced himself - because the opponent was not fighting alone.

"Click!" The two shields quickly merged in front of the purple mercenary, but they ran to the left side and passed the Luoan girl who was retreating. They saw what happened behind her and the two lower-level mercenaries who came to support her. , their eyes widened for a moment, with shock on their faces.

"It's impossible..." "Plop." Christo, who calls himself Hayate, is obviously not as untouchable as the real Hayate. At this moment, he was kneeling on his knees with tears streaming down his face. The hands and the long knife in the hands of this purple mercenary who was so confident a few minutes ago had fallen to the ground nearby, and his shoulders were cut off by Qi Gen. The blood flowing out was quickly soaking the inside of his coat and leather armor. His pale and twisted face was filled with incomprehension. He raised his face and stared directly at Henry. Maybe it was because his heart was twisted, or maybe it was because his heart was twisted. The question originally asked like this is ridiculous: "Why! I am Hayate, I am Hayate! Why can you be faster than me!"

The words that are connected with the previous speech and make people feel that there is something wrong with this person's head continue: "The person who killed me! The person who defeated me, what is your name, tell me! Tell me why you can defeat the wind, I am the fastest swordsman in the entire Southern Territory, I am the fastest, and I cannot be hit!"

He roared hysterically like this, denying the fact that he was being beaten down like a chopping melon and vegetables.

Henry frowned, but his tone remained calm, as if what he had chopped down in three or two strokes was not a named Purple Brand mercenary but some flowers and trees somewhere: "You are too slow, I know someone who is faster than you. "

"As for the name."

"Henry Meyer." He slit the other person's throat easily, and then continued as Christo fell: "As you can see, he is a sage." "Clang-dang-" "Pfft--" The one-sided advantage gained by Mira and Henry cannot change the absolute disadvantage in numbers. Although the fact that one purple-brand mercenary was injured and another was killed has a profound impact on the thugs of the Batty Merchant Group. Their morale was severely damaged, and they still fought hard despite knowing that once the battle began, it would not end without one party dying.

The moment Mira opened the distance and Henry beheaded Christo, the two blue-brand free mercenaries on the right wing were already scarred. They were retreating steadily, and the people from the Batty business group who had approached this distance decisively gave up. He grabbed his shield and grabbed the long knife and slashed at Old Juan and the others. Geronimo wanted to swing the giant sword in his hand, but the opponent who had lost his shield easily dodged it and surrounded them like the previous torrent. A group of thugs from the Bati Merchant Group quickly approached, and the two young green-card mercenaries Ofemio and Federo who poured hot soup on them were the first to bear the brunt.

They didn't know how to fight with people at all, and they were knocked to the ground in three blows. Seeing that the long knife was about to cut, a silver light suddenly flashed on the left, and the Luoan girl with flowing hair rushed over with a single arrow. He stopped in front of the two of them.

From top to bottom, Phaedrus and Euphemio saw Mira's side face shining in the sun, which was serious and calm, with the pursed lips on her small chin and then on to her delicate jade-like nose and With sparkling blue eyes - there was fine sweat on her forehead, her skin and white hair exuded a faint halo in the sun, like an angel sent by the gods - the girl didn't even look at the two people who fell to the ground. She turned around and swung a sword to drive back the three thugs who were coming towards her. In the next moment, Henry crossed her left side and came towards her with the sound of howling wind. What does it mean to return.

"Chang——cha——" Bloody light spread everywhere, and the sage carrying the big sword struck with great force and heavy blows, which directly sent the thug in front of him flying with his sword. Mira, who was familiar with his steps and movements, turned around naturally. He passed over and handed his back to his teacher with peace of mind, then moved further to the right to help the two free mercenaries relieve the pressure.

What is the concept of one against a hundred? The two people, one big, one small, one black and one white, gave the best answer. The image of the opponent's front immediately collapsing like a wolf entering a flock of sheep was deeply reflected in the eyes of the two young mercenaries sitting on the ground and their companions in the mercenary group, and was also firmly remembered. in their hearts.

"Hot Parady! Hot Parady! (Retreat! Retreat!)" Four people were killed by Henry's Claymore in one encounter, plus the two people Mira stabbed later and the two free mercenaries. Seizing the opportunity to kill the two people, including Christo, who was the strongest leader, the total number of people has been reduced to seven, and the remaining three people were injured. The Batty business group finally realized that these people were not easy to mess with. They hurriedly ran towards their horses. Henry stayed where he was and did not pursue. He just watched the group of people quickly get on their horses and gallop away.

Their goal is survival rather than total annihilation. If they can make the other party escape, then there is no need to waste this precious physical energy.

"call--"

Euphemio let out a long breath and slumped down on the dirt ground.

"Finally saved..."

He sighed like this, while most of the others were panting and holding on to something or something, trying hard to regain their strength.

But none of them could take their eyes away from Henry and Mira. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users please visit m.read for a better reading experience.
