307 – Secret Warehouse Battle (2)
Holding a stone the size of a person’s head with a huge hand, he exerted as much strength as possible on the muscles of his body inherited from his father who gave birth to him. I grab the stone by placing my fingers in the way my father, who raised me, taught me.
In order to use your entire body, from your toes to your fingertips, as a throwing machine, you raise one leg and take a stance, then move your entire body vigorously at once, putting all the force generated into the stone in your hand and throwing it.
In general, flying objects always draw a parabola. If there were wings, it would be a different story, but without them, drawing a parabola is inevitable.
Be it a stone, a ball, or a weapon such as a dagger or throwing axe, or even an arrow or bullet.
You must draw a parabola.
However, Rex’s stone was different.
In a straight line. It flies in a straight line from Rex’s fingertips to the point of impact.
And the stone that flew like that became a force that no one could resist and attacked the Knights of the Sky.
Quaaang!!
When he opened his eyes with a huge shock, five or six of his colleagues who had been next to him a moment ago had turned into blood clots and were dead, leaving behind only their dented armor.
What would happen if a catapult was actually used by humans?
The problem was that the stone flying now was not thrown by a catapult. It throws an incomparable amount of stones at a speed that is incomparable to that of a catapult.
Kwaaang! Quaaang! Kwaaa!!
Immediately after the commotion broke out, before the Sky Knights could properly maintain the camp, stones were scattered throughout the camp, and after the bombing passed, there were less than ten survivors left in the camp.
“Does this make sense?!”
The Firmament Knights are a group of talented children who were noticed by Duke Raynald and were thoroughly educated and raised from a young age when they knew nothing.
Among the education they received, there was also the existence of something called ‘magic’, or beings who inherited the blood of heroes.
Then what is that now?
Is this a miraculous power shown by someone who carries on the blood of heroes?
Otherwise, it’s magic. Relics from other continents. Is this an act caused by a tool with special technical skills, so to speak?
However, whether it was the hero’s blood or magic, none of what he ‘learned by seeing with his own eyes’ could show the shocking power that was happening right before his eyes.
‘Am I having a nightmare?’
It wasn’t.
What happened before my eyes was reality.
Pain felt throughout the body. A headache caused by a traumatized mind. Death of a colleague.
Everything is true.
That’s why he despaired.
It was a despair that even a half-brainwashed mind could not overcome.
“Ah.”
Stones are flying.
To yourself.
It could not be prevented or avoided.
Before the Sky Knight, who sensed his fate, could close his eyes, the flying stone turned him into a handful of crushed meat.
“It’s more effective than I thought.”
And Chester, who was admiring the sight, swung Anubis and spread the curtain as black arrows flew from afar.
Let’s go!
Black arrows fly and hit the curtain that Chester has spread.
“Did he turn his armor into an arrow and shoot it? Urgo.”
“Hmm.”
Urgo, who had been piling up stones in the carriage, saw an arrow with a terrifying force that seemed to be flying even after Chester’s curtain disappeared. He grabbed the ax with both hands and gave it strength.
“Hmm!”
Then, in the nick of time before the curtain disappeared, he swung the ax roughly, creating a gust of wind.
The gust of wind created by Urgo sweeps away the black arrow.
However, some of the arrows that still had momentum got stuck in the carriage.
Chester and Urgo, who saw arrows stuck halfway through the roof of the carriage, realized that it was not the roof of the carriage that blocked the arrows, but the stones piled inside the carriage that blocked the arrows.
If only the carriage had rattled, the arrow would have penetrated to the bottom of the carriage and lodged in the ground.
“It’s flying again. Chester, what about the tent?”
“I have to wait a little longer.”
“I see. Sena!”
“I know!”
Senna comforted her horses and made the carriage speed up a little more. As Urgo said, I did well to switch to a large and powerful horse whenever I had the chance.
Even with a heavy carriage filled with rocks, the horses ran at a breakneck speed.
“Rex! “Take away the arrows!”
“Yes!”
As soon as Rex turned his head, he threw a stone toward the direction where Chester’s fingertips were pointing.
Since childhood, Chester was trained to quickly throw stones in the direction he pointed, so his reaction speed was quick.
However, right after Rex threw the stone. A very brief gap before picking up another stone.
The demon knights took advantage of the gap.
“…… !!”
“What!”
From noble mtl dot com
“Under the ground!”
A demonic knight soared above the ground, moving his arms made up of four shields to quickly dig out the underground, and rushed at the carriage of Chester and his party, who were completely caught off guard.
“Hmph!”
At that time, Lorwan, who was inside the carriage, threw out his spear.
The spear tip with a fragment of the demon knight’s armor attached to it rubbed against the demon knight’s armor and sparked purple sparks, and as the spear bent, it slid across the armor and eventually stuck in a gap in the armor.
The moment the spear landed in the gap in the armor, Lorwan turned his arm to straighten the bent spear, then stretched out his twisted arm and threw it out.
The body does not move, but the arms, shoulders, and upper body move only slightly to exquisitely dig into the gap and stab the spear.
The action of ‘stabbing’ is performed once, and then the weapon that was stabbed first must be withdrawn and then stabbed again. Ignoring such common sense, he used his body and the flexibility of the spear to stab him again with the same spear he had stabbed once.
The devil knight was caught off guard, and the devil knight, whose spear was stuck in the gap, did not retreat even as black blood poured out.
Swing the shield to destroy the carriage. However, in that moment, Chester swung Anubis and spread a curtain between the demon knight and the chariot, blocking the demon knight.
While the demon knight is blocked by the curtain, the carriage runs away.
“A bird shooting an arrow. One that came out of the ground now. “Where is the other one?”
“Aren’t you guarding a secret warehouse?”
As soon as the curtain disappeared, the demon knight who was stabbed in the stomach galloped hard and chased the carriage.
Remove the shield to reduce air resistance and use your horse’s legs to run.
“Ugh!”
Rex threw a stone at the chasing demon knight.
You can’t just hit that. The demon knight hurriedly turned his body to avoid the stone, and Chester shot Anubis at the demon knight who dodged.
For a moment, the demon knight’s vision lit up, and before he could properly recognize it, a beam of light shot from the tip of Anubis attacked the demon knight.
– …… Wow!!!!!!
And the demon knight screamed.
I couldn’t help but scream.
A huge shock that I have never felt before. It doesn’t end in an instant, but the beams of light shooting from Anubis continue to collide and shock us.
The protrusions on the demon knight’s armor spread out beams of light, reducing the damage to some extent, but at the same time, Anubis’ enormous heat melted the armor, and the beams of light penetrating through the gaps turned the demon knight’s body into well-cooked meat. It turned into a lump.
– Ahhh!!
Immediately after the beam of light ended, the demon knight melted from the pain and grabbed the armor that was sticking to his body with his own hands and tore it off.
– Shuuu!!
A breathtaking scream is heard. Rex did not miss the opportunity and threw a stone at the demon knight.
The Demon Knight did not even think about defending himself against the flying stones, and one of the stones Rex threw hit the Demon Knight’s body, which had its armor removed, and sent him flying.
“Oh. “It’s working a lot better than I thought.”
“No, it’s even more absurd to survive while only surviving one hit.”
At that time, the distance seemed to have narrowed again as they circled around the secret warehouse, and the demon knight’s arrows began to fly again.
“How many arrows does he shoot? Is there a lot of armor?”
“I guess they kept collecting it. Rex! “Defend me!”
“Okay!”
Once again, Rex blocks the arrow by throwing a rock. However, it was not as perfect as the tent, so quite a few arrows hit the carriage.
“Sena! What do you mean?!”
“It’s not right yet!”
“It’s heavenly luck.”
Arrows rain down. I don’t know if it was intentional, or because the distance had narrowed, but now they started pouring in without any gaps.
Rex and Urgo threw stones and swung axes without a word. But stones are not eternal.
“Rorwan! “How many stones are left?”
“We’re almost out!”
“Tsk. …… “But we’ve almost completely closed the distance.”
Instead of looking for a single invisible devil knight, the carriage was running in the direction of the devil knight who was continuously raining down arrows.
The distance gradually decreased, and the arrows that had been attacking from the sky in a parabola suddenly changed to pouring down from close range.
Chester jumped out of the carriage and went into the nearby woods. He hides himself in the shadow of a tree and races down a path that the carriage cannot travel.
Chester, who was running at a speed so fast that anyone would think of a blurry shadow running, saw two demonic knights shooting arrows with their four arms from a distance in the forest.
‘There were two of them here.’
The moment he saw that the light that had regained its power was flowing from Anubis, who had lost his power after shooting the beam of light, Chester jumped out of the forest and immediately rushed at a demon knight and swung Anubis.
The curtain unfolds according to Anubis’s trajectory, and the unfolded curtain envelops the demon knight, forming a trap that can never be broken.
While one of the demon knights was suddenly taken aback by the veil that wrapped around his body, Urgo and Rex jumped out of the carriage that had closed the distance between them and rushed at the one remaining demon knight.
