Working Prophet

Tom didn't have time to look again, because the enemy was almost in front of them.

He was about to order the arrows to be fired, but unexpectedly, something happened again. Anton, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly jumped out from behind them and ran towards the group of black-armored cavalry, still shouting.

"Wait a minute, I'm not the same as them, I'm also from the Silver Moon Church! My name is Anton, and I'm the common language teacher sent by the church to the Arias family!"

"Idiot! Come back quickly!" As soon as Tom finished speaking, Anton was less than ten steps away from the front rider.

Then the Common Language teacher saw the other party draw the long sword from his waist.

"Really! I really am the Silver Moon Sect..." Anton said anxiously, but before he could finish his words, the sword in the knight's hand fell down and struck him on the chest mercilessly!

The Common Language teacher let out a scream and fell to the ground. His blood splashed out and sprinkled on the bushes nearby, like little red flowers blooming.

But Tom had no time to care about his life and death at this moment, and yelled, "Shoot!"

The soldiers of the Black Dog Guard pressed the mechanism together, and the crossbow arrows flew out from the arms of the crossbow, creating a gust of wind!

The two sides are now only twenty or thirty steps away from each other. At such a close distance, and with the help of a laser sight, even when shooting at a moving target, the accuracy is still guaranteed. At least half of the arrows hit the target.

It's a pity that the opponent's body was also protected by a full set of armor. Most of the shots Tom and the others shot were non-vital parts outside the armor.

Although the cavalrymen were hit by arrows, they only let out a few muffled grunts and still rushed towards us despite the pain. Only one of the black dog guard soldiers missed the target a bit. Instead, he hit a war horse in the eye. The horse neighed and fell to the ground.

They also flew out with the riders on their backs, and later they tripped another war horse that was unable to dodge, causing a small chaos.

Tom now regrets why he chose to shoot a man instead of a horse.

But there is no way, this is the price of growth.

Many famous marshals always suffered repeated defeats before becoming famous marshals. When Tom was a mercenary, he was not the commander of the team. After joining the Black Dog Guard, he had the opportunity to lead a team on his own.

Coupled with the high level of mental stress at the moment, oversights in command will inevitably occur.

But now was not the time to reflect. It was too late to reload the hand crossbow, so Tom just threw it aside and charged forward with his sword.

A head-on confrontation is impossible, after all, the enemy is facing cavalry.

Tom just feinted a shot, and then stepped aside to deal with the cavalry.

In contrast, the lizard warriors under him were much more upright. They waved their shield weapons and screamed, running towards the enemy. The result was a sword cut from the opposite side. They raised their dragon scale shields to block, and then struck down. In an instant, he and his shield were chopped down to the ground.

The dragon scale shield was indeed hard enough and was unharmed by this sword, but the cavalry's momentum was also very strong.

Even if they were protected by armor, so that those lizard warriors would not be instantly killed in one round like the Common Language teacher, they still suffered such a heavy fall that many of them could not get up from the ground for a while.

However, perhaps inspired by Li Yu's miracle of walking on water, all the Black Dog Guards are now as high as chicken blood, and their morale is through the roof. Moreover, because the black armored cavalry soldiers were divided into two groups, the black dog guards here are now The dog guards actually had the advantage in numbers.

One man was knocked down, and nearby companions rushed towards the knight on horseback.

While the cavalrymen were too shaken by the force of the counterattack to attack, they pounced forward and pulled the enemy off their horses.

In addition, Tom, the team leader, also found a sense of command now, and he had an idea, "Cut the horses' legs and force them to dismount!"

Needless to say, this trick is quite effective.

Except for one who broke through quickly, the remaining five cavalrymen were forced to jump off their horses.

But even if they lost their mounts and faced nearly twice as many enemies, the black-armored cavalry showed no signs of panic. They didn't even ask for help from their companions, but calmly drew their swords to fight off the enemies.

Tom found the enemy closest to him and rushed forward, and then said to the lizard man warrior standing by who wanted to help, "Leave this guy to me, and you go help others."

The team leader's determined eyes and confident tone made him gain a lot of fashion points in front of his subordinates, and his image also became taller.

However, after the fight, Tom was shocked because he was suppressed by the opponent!

The swordsmanship of the cavalryman he fought was simply terrifying. Among the mercenaries, Tom was already one of the very skilled ones, but against him, he basically only got beaten and defended, with almost no counterattack. Chance.

This was because the equipment on his body was better than that of his opponent, otherwise Tom would have probably been lying down by now.

But if the fight continues like this, it will be a matter of time before he is killed by the opponent.

So Tom didn't care about his face, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Someone, someone, this one is a bit fierce!"

Although the team leader broke his promise and was slapped in the face at the speed of light, the lizard warriors below were still very considerate. After hearing his cry for help, someone came nearby soon, but two against one, they could only draw with the black armored cavalry. .

So Tom started to use his brain again, and said to the lizard man warrior who was facing the enemy with him, "I'm dragging him here. You, go pick up the crossbow, load the arrows, and give him a shot."

Since the lizard people don't know Common Language and have only learned some basic combat vocabulary, Tom himself can't speak lizard people at all. If the content of an order is too complicated, he has to repeat it several times, which makes even the black armored cavalry on the opposite side listen. I understand what Tom wants to do.

The power of his sword suddenly became sharper, which also greatly increased the pressure on Tom. Fortunately, the lizard man warrior understood his words and immediately left his opponent behind to pick up the hand crossbow thrown aside.

And here Tom also used what he had learned throughout his life and tried his best to hold off his opponent.

For this reason, even his left hand was hung with a sword, and his neck was almost hit by a sword, which shocked him into a cold sweat, but fortunately, he finally waited until the other side was ready to load the crossbow.

The lizard man warrior didn't aim at too vital a place. He just found the enemy's calf and shot out with an arrow. Although the black armored cavalry was also trying to dodge, at such a close distance, with the help of the laser sight, this shot The arrow cannot miss.

There was still a sharp pain in his calf, making him almost unable to move.

Of course, Tom would not give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and immediately entangled him again.
