The Amber Sword

Scene 49 Swordsmanship

Because he didn't deliberately hide, Brando was discovered by the guards when he passed the first-floor atrium. After he killed three people, the seven-member patrol team fled in all directions, and brought information about the intruders to every corner of the castle.

There are thirty-two guards in Yusong Castle, most of them are mercenaries. Among them, the captain is a mercenary leader from Jean Denelle. He is highly skilled in martial arts. He not only has the mid-level strength of a black iron swordsman, but also has a commanding mind.

Therefore, when Brando entered the banquet hall on the second floor, he encountered an ambush, and eleven guards participated in the ambush. As soon as he opened the door, the hall in his impression was brightly lit, and the archers who were ambushing in the corridor on the upper floor immediately started to shoot arrows.

At such a close distance, almost as soon as the bowstring sounded, the arrows were already in front of him. Brando only had time to raise his hands to protect his face, chest and lower abdomen. The blue fluorescence of the protective gloves flashed slightly, and the most accurate arrows were caught The expanding light pushed aside—of course, a few arrows grazed his arms and thighs and flew past.

Brando gritted his teeth, cursing in his heart. Although for him, the physique of 4 energy levels is equivalent to that the muscles will automatically unload most of their strength, converting the damage that would have caused serious injuries into normal damage. What had been a skin wound would turn into an abrasion, and lighter weapons wouldn't even be able to cut through his skin.

But even so, the pain will not decrease at all.

But if it was changed to a normal time, Brandoming knew that there were a large number of guards ambushing in the corridor on the second floor, and he might immediately withdraw to take a detour to seize the spiral staircase at the other end. Although there must be guards on the side of the spiral staircase inside the castle, at least the terrain there is not so dangerous.

But now it's different.

He only swung his sword diagonally upwards, and a transparent ripple crossed his blade and spread to half of the hall——a loud crash, the candlesticks and utensils on the long dining table in the hall moved along the direction of the ripples, and on the ceiling The chandelier exploded, and the railing on the corridor snapped into two halves—all the guards on it fell apart and fell down.

White Crow Swordsmanship, Eruin's court swordsmanship, this secret skill is a rare long-range attack skill that fighters can learn in the early and middle stages: level 0 White Crow Swordsmanship can be five or six meters away from the sword, and the attack cross section is wide Double the size. At level 25, this sword technique can attack enemies hundreds of meters away, almost on par with a swordsman who has cultivated elemental power.

And its consumption is only 3 points of stamina from beginning to end, which is just a drop in the bucket compared to the huge consumption of inspiration element power, which is why so many people were so eager for intermediate skills back then.

Brando's shocking blow caused a moment of silence in the hall, until the broken wood fell from the second floor of the hall, and there was a light snap that woke everyone up like a dream——

"knight!"

"Knights Templar!"

"Martha is on top! Mr. Apuno, let's retreat!" The guards screamed, losing the will to resist, and retreated one after another.

Sword energy separation is one of the basic skills of a warrior after he has cultivated his elements. According to tradition, the Temple of Fire will grant these people the official title of knight, and in order to distinguish the knights from various countries, they are also called Templar Knights.

In front of the knights, the three-level power system is just a cloud, not to mention ordinary people like them, unless they are enough to exhaust the opponent's physical strength, otherwise it will be useless to come more.

"Knight's fart!" Captain Apu Nuo rushed back to the nearest subordinate, and he couldn't help cursing in his heart. That must be court swordsmen, could it be that they were actually involved in a court struggle? As a mercenary leader, he naturally had to be well-informed, and he even knew what kind of a close servant the nobleman upstairs was. It was not the first time that he was affected by political struggle, but it was the first time he saw the legendary court swordsman.

That is the top court swordsmanship, one of the core strengths mastered by the royal family. Just a small black iron low-level swordsman can burst out with so much power,

For a moment, Apu Nuo couldn't help feeling a little jealous.

But to his credit as a mercenary, he still remembered his duties. He looked up and looked around. Most of the guards had already fled, and the rest were not brave enough to die - but too scared to move.

Brando killed four people with that sword.

Apu Nuo had no time to be heartbroken. He stood up and made a gesture and shouted: "Retreat! Retreat! Tell the people on the other side of the spiral staircase to retreat. This floor can't be defended anymore. Let's go to the next floor."

Only then did the rest of the guards wake up, and immediately retreated from the various doors. Some were even so frightened that they didn't even want the bows and arrows in their hands, and they almost took off the armor on their bodies and threw them away.

Seeing this scene, Apu Nuo was a little disheartened, "Damn, these nobles are really troublesome—" He cursed, then turned around and lifted the previous entourage from the ground. The other party woke up from the panic and said angrily: "You go to the barracks in the castle to report and ring the alarm bell, do you understand?"

"Ring the alarm bell, but His Excellency the Duke said that it was used to warn the whole city?" The entourage was taken aback.

"Fart! If the guest dies, we have to finish the game, understand?"

The guard was taken aback for a moment, then nodded quickly.

***********

I have to say that this entourage is still a little clever. He was afraid that the other party still had accomplices, so he didn't dare to take the inner spiral staircase, but climbed down from the rappel in the kitchen by himself. He seemed absolutely safe.

He knew that Apuno had pinned his hopes on the barracks on the other side of the castle, where a small group of white-maned infantry was stationed to support the guards in the castle. There were seven of them including a squad leader. Although they look down on each other on weekdays, but at this moment they are full of hope to see each other sooner. But before the entourage ran over, he was shocked to find the bodies of two sentries in dark blue military uniforms lying in the middle of the courtyard—the other party had accomplices, and he immediately realized this.

The entourage reacted quickly, turning around and leaving almost immediately.

But it was still a bit late. Before that, a white light shot out from the second floor of the barracks, passing through the chest of this entourage. With the powerful force of the magic arrow, the body of the guard flew forward seven or eight meters, hitting a pine tree before stopping.

Charles stood by the stone hole window and stared outside for a long time, and looked away after confirming that the man was completely dead and had no accomplices. He took out his pocket watch, and then looked at the rope hanging from the bell on the clock tower—five minutes before Brando's appointed time.

***********

Apu Nuo didn't know that the person he sent to report the news had been killed, and even the White Mane Legion squad he was counting on had been killed. Now he hopes that the remaining people under him can resist for a while, Hold on until reinforcements arrive.

They guarded the stairs leading from the third floor to the second floor, behind which was the guest room, and they had nowhere to go. Although he looks down on them on weekdays, but now he is a little envious of those handymen and servants. At least they can find a place to hide tremblingly, but he can't as the captain of the guard.

If the Earl died under his protection, he would probably have to change his name and flee to the mountains to become a bandit.

The young swordsman soon appeared in his vision.

Brando estimated the time, and there were about a few minutes left. But he shook the blood foam on the sword, thinking that it should be enough, but he couldn't help but feel a little strange looking at the line of defense formed by more than ten guards in front-are these guys so unbeatable? He had thought that there should be a hard fight.

He also saw that the captain of the guard was at least at the middle level of the black iron swordsman, so it stands to reason that the opponent should have an advantage, right?

But Brando obviously made a mistake, that is the advantage of skills. He took it for granted that he could get his own skills from the initial level and the first five levels after that, so everyone else should be the same. But Brando himself was used to dealing with players, but he forgot that this was a privilege only for players.

As for most of the guards here, most of them were members of the local militia before joining the mercenary army. They had learned some crude sword skills, and the rest were experience gained in actual combat. Just like Apuno, he was born in the army and learned Aruin's military swordsmanship, but he knows nothing else.

Of course, even if he knew this, he would not be merciful. He knew what the protected guest meant to these people, so neither side had much choice.

The guards opened their bows and fired arrows.

Brando raised the protective gloves and pushed aside the arrow shafts, but in fact, he only needed to block Apu Nuo's arrow, because the weak arrows of other people did not pose any threat to him at all.

"The first team to attack!" Seeing that the bow and arrow had no effect, and the opponent was getting closer, Apu Nuo had no choice but to bite the bullet and push his own people on.

He organized seven people, and these seven people scolded each other for being shameless in their hearts, why didn't they go first in this situation? But at first they thought that they would die this time, but when they rushed out, these people felt an afterimage passing by them.

They turned their heads subconsciously, and were surprised to find that the killing god had bypassed them and arrived in front of their captain——

When Apuno saw Brando's figure disappear from his sight, he realized that it was not good. He had fought against the Sun Knight before, and he knew that the knights in the kingdom had a charge skill, which could instantly increase the burst speed. He only felt numbness in his scalp. Countless actual combat experience forced him to raise his sword and move forward. When there was a sound of sparks flying, the two swords really collided——

"As expected of the strength of Black Iron Midstream."

Brando thought to himself that there was almost no sign of the opponent's sword, and he was also an extremely experienced swordsman in the game. He remembered that he suffered a big loss when he was around level 20, because of this kind of NPC who climbed up in actual combat.

But then was then, and now is now.

With a thought in his mind, Brando didn't give the other party a chance to breathe, and pressed him with another sword. This time it was an explosion of power, and Apu Nuo was almost scared out of his wits. He couldn't help but wonder who this kid was, he was a court swordsmanship, a knight skill, and a berserker's power explosion. God made sense.

Even though he was well-informed, he couldn't help feeling chills in his heart. This is also due to the fact that he has a lot of knowledge, if he really had to change to someone else, he would probably have died without knowing why.

And Apu Nuo originally wanted to counterattack, but when he saw this sword, he had no idea, and directly put on the most defensive posture. After the swords intersected, the swords of both of them bent backwards to the limit, and they let out an overwhelmed, teeth-piercing trembling sound. After that, Brando was fine, but the captain of the guard stepped back seven steps in a row, almost sitting back on the ground.

It stands to reason that the median strength of Apuno Black Iron has at least 9 energy levels and should have suppressed Brando, but the situation is just the opposite at this moment.

This is the power of skills——

As soon as Apu Nuo retreated, the guards on the left and right woke up like a dream and rushed over to sneak attack. But Brando swung his sword back casually, and a wind blade rushed straight to the big head.

Then he moved forward. Seeing this, Apu Nuo decisively dropped the sword in his hand and shouted: "I surrender!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the alarm bell rang outside——

"Surrender, drop your weapon, get out!"

Brando gave a low snort.

A group of guards, as if they had received an amnesty, threw away their weapons and fled. They were already so frightened that their hands and feet were weak, but now their captains agreed to surrender, so naturally they no longer had the will to fight.
