Vikings: Journey of the Juggernaut

Chapter 41: The Dog That Bereaved
call out!
A sharp arrow whizzed towards him. Rayleigh looked back and struck it down with precision with his sword. However, he slowed down and was pulled closer by the pursuer behind him.

Kayson and Jecam slowed down their steps, and when they looked back, they saw another sharp arrow flying towards them, and was once again knocked away by the long sword beside them.

"The opponent has archers, and this is not an option at all." Kaisen frowned slightly. He had to worry about the arrows flying behind him every step he took. They would soon be overtaken.

"Why don't we go back and fight again?" Jakam asked the two of them.

"I can't fight." Kaisen shook his head. Just a one-eyed Yomu, even if the three of them are tied together, they are no match, let alone the two helpers who are at least Raider Warrior-level warriors just by looking at their size. .

"Then what should we do? We're almost overtaken." Jakam said anxiously when he saw Rayleigh, who was fully focused, looking back to chop down the arrow again.

"Run away separately. If this continues, we will definitely die." Kaisen said decisively.

"Rayleigh, what do you think?"

"It can only be this way."

The three of them exchanged glances, and then suddenly pulled away in three directions: left, front, and right.

"They are separated, Captain Youm, how can we chase them?"

The chasing trio slowed down slightly. If the three chased only one person and threatened them with bows and arrows, that person would definitely die, but the other two would inevitably escape.

"I want the heads of these three brats. Chase them separately. If you are not sure about taking them, just wait until I finish taking care of the guys in front of you and come over to support you." Youmu quickened his pace as he spoke, heading directly towards Kaisen who was directly in front of him. Chase.This genius's reputation has spread to the Blackfish tribe since he was a child, so he is naturally the number one target to kill.

Although the other two are also extraordinary, they are obviously much worse than Kaisen.In terms of strength and wisdom, Jecam is more like a foil to Kaysen.

And no fool would really believe that Rayleigh, who was suddenly touted as a general nearly half a year ago.It can also be confirmed from the news coming out of the arena yesterday that Rayleigh's strength is just mediocre compared to Kayson and Jackam.

The two elite raider warriors around him are enough to kill any one of them, and they can delay him no matter what.

"I'm going to chase the boy with the bamboo hat on his back."

The Blackfish warrior holding a bow and arrow flew towards the left and cut down three of his arrows in succession. Although the distance was a bit far and the main purpose of the arrows was just to slow down the steps of the three men, it also aroused the excitement. His anger.

The other Blackfish warrior carrying a Saxon sword said nothing and chased the one left to him.For them, it doesn't matter which one they pursue. After all, these three are only 15 years old. They are too young, and their physical fitness and combat experience are far inferior to the two of them.

The elite raider warriors symbolize the elite veterans who have survived many battles. They are easy to deal with these little guys.

After chasing for hundreds of meters with all his strength, he saw the steps of the Misty Crow boy in front of him getting slower and slower, and a trace of disdain flashed across the corner of his mouth: "You have no physical strength now?"

The Blackfish Warrior instantly quickened his pace and came directly behind Jecam. Just as he was about to slash him with his sword, the guy in front of him drew out his two-handed sword faster than him.

"You've been tricked."

Taking advantage of his longer sword, Jecam launched a set of powerful and heavy burst attacks against the Blackfish Man.

The Blackfish warrior retreated while fighting, with a flash of surprise in his heart. It was extremely difficult for him to resist the attack of the boy in front of him. For a moment, he even had the terrifying thought that this boy was stronger than himself.

After resisting more than twenty moves in succession, the Blackfish warrior was beaten and retreated. Finally, he received a fierce sweep, and the whole body turned sideways several times before releasing the strength.

When he raised his eyes again, he saw that the giant sword had already broken through the air. He quickly held the sword with both hands and tried his best to parry the attack with the sound of breaking through the air.

Keng——

Along with the sound of iron clanging, the Blackfish warrior felt his arms numb from the shock, and then everything became quiet.

What about people?

Looking around, no one is holding a big sword. This is...

Was thrown directly over!
Then he saw the figure who had run away far away.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the two-handed sword that fell to the side. He didn't even need the weapon anymore. It was obvious that this man named Jackham had reached his limit.

The Blackfish warrior let out a little breath. The fierce counterattack just now made him feel that his life was threatened.Although it was just this kid's last ditch effort, it was indeed pretty good at his age.

It's a pity that if you are not from your own tribe, you will have to die here.

Putting the sword back into its sheath, the Blackfish warrior began to pursue, passing by the abandoned shield along the way.Taking another look, I saw this kid staying behind a tree, seemingly giving up because he had no energy, or perhaps he was playing some conspiracy.

He slowed down, no matter what tricks this young man played, it was nothing to worry about in the face of absolute strength.The brief confrontation just now said everything, not to mention that the person in front of him would never have the physical strength to display that kind of strength.

Step by step, the figure leaning against the tree still didn't move. This made the Blackfish warrior feel that something was wrong.After taking a few steps closer, he saw the disembodied figure, and his expression became very ugly. He struck out the leather armor behind the tree with his knife, and sure enough, there was nothing else left.He raised his eyes and glanced at the surrounding trees one by one, but there was no sign of the boy either.

Ran!

He abandoned his armor and ran away like a lost dog! !

The anger in the Blackfish warrior's heart at this moment has nowhere to vent. This kind of rat who even throws away his personal weapons and armor has no qualifications to enter the Hall of Valor. It is simply a shame for the North.

This also made him determined to capture this rat and cut him into pieces in order to relieve the anger in his heart.

Observing the footprints around him, he soon discovered the kid's escape route. The route surprised him slightly: the rat did not run towards the stone building, but towards the previous left direction.

Instead of going to the stone tower to seek protection from Deever, could he only want to join his companions?
The Blackfish warrior had no time to guess more and quickly followed the footsteps. He was not worried about the safety of his teammates:
Rayleigh was mediocre, and Jekam's physical strength was basically exhausted. He was no threat to his teammates at all. If he went to support Kaysen, let alone facing Captain Youm, he would just go to die.

What worries me is that if I can't keep up with such a boy, I will become a laughing stock of the tribe.

The facts were just as the Blackfish warriors had expected. With his aching and numb feet, Jekham ran desperately in the direction where Rayleigh had escaped.

He did not grab the big sword that was thrown before. With his current physical strength, he would definitely be overtaken while dragging such a heavy sword.He had already tried a sneak attack, and all the full-force attacks he had suddenly turned around had been blocked, and now he had no chance.

Commander Basomo could not protect himself, and the other soldiers were killed in pieces, and there would be no more reinforcements.

He could only try to join up with Rayleigh and see if he could kill the Blackfish warrior who was chasing him first.With the cooperation between myself and Rayleigh trained over many years, there should be a chance for a two-on-one fight. If it can be solved in time, we can deal with the chasing man again.

As for Kaisen, the pursuer is the most powerful one-eyed Yumu. In the past, he had no choice but to die and could only seek happiness for himself.

……

"Kid, you can't run away."

After chasing for a moment, Youmu noticed a tree trunk as thick as an arm lying in front of him. He suddenly picked it up and smashed it out. The trunk flew out sideways and hit the shield hanging behind the figure in front.

Kaisen stumbled and fell to the ground. When he came to his senses, he saw the huge man in his sight with amazing explosive power. He arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye, followed closely by a terrifying long sword.

He quickly rolled around to avoid the sword, and saw the short ax in Youmu's left hand follow suit.

He raised his sword to block, and with a clang, Kaisen felt that he almost lost his sword.The moment he blocked the hatchet, Youmu kicked him in the stomach without giving him any time to react.

puff……

Kaisen spit out a mouthful of blood, and flew out far away like a kite with a broken string, hitting a banyan tree behind him, and spit out another mouthful of blood.

The man in his sight had already strode forward. When he saw the long sword being raised, Kaisen endured his injured body and climbed up the banyan tree behind him like an ape. The sword almost hit his heel. On the tree trunk.

Youmu stepped on the tree trunk, jumped into the air and swung his sword towards the grasshopper in front of him.The grasshopper reacted just as quickly. He grabbed the branch with his arm and threw himself directly to the other side of the trunk, and the sword hit the air again.

hateful! !
After Youmu landed, he saw that the grasshopper had climbed to the upper level of the banyan tree. A flash of anger flashed across his expression. He hung the sword and ax back on his waist and began to climb up the banyan tree.

After climbing to the upper level, he saw a grasshopper stepping on a small branch waiting for him. He drew his sword again and slashed at the branch.

The moment he saw the branch break, the grasshopper in his eyes jumped suddenly and jumped to a banyan tree on the opposite side. Without stopping at all, he ran forward along the thick branches.

"Let me see how much energy you have left."

Youmu suddenly jumped down from the banyan tree, with a fierce and persistent look on his face, and continued the pursuit.

……

call out!
Rayleigh was unable to dodge an arrow from a medium-range distance, and a bloodstain was instantly drawn on his shoulder.

His eyes were fixed on the dilapidated cave that appeared in front of him, he suddenly accelerated his speed, and in the blink of an eye he disappeared into the cave entrance covered with cobwebs.After running away for so long, a place finally appeared where he could escape the opponent's arrow attack.

Bounce of arrows at close range requires extremely strong reaction ability and speed. With his current strength, he is far from being able to do so.

The figure who had lost his aim showed a haze on the Blackfish warrior's expression.However, he was not in a hurry to enter the cave. He had been training in bow and arrow since he was a child, and he knew that his strength was eyesight and arm strength, but he was not good at hearing. It was not wise to enter the dark cave rashly.

He cut off a piece of tree branch, wrapped some linen cloth around it and applied some flammable resin on it, then took out the fire sealed in the tube and lit it.

Holding a torch in his left hand and a hatchet in his right hand, the Blackfish warrior cautiously entered the cave.
