Chapter 1438 1410 Attack!
Chapter 1438 1410. Attack!
The workshop area at the base of Gos Velen's city wall was indeed on fire at this time.
But fortunately, it was already late at night, and there were not many people in the workshop. Most of them went back to rest.
So when Gede arrived in a hurry, the first thing he was relieved was that there were no casualties.
Berengar, who is wearing the armor of the Advanced Wolf School, has organized the remaining people in the workshop to evacuate.
The workshops that caught fire inexplicably have become one.
The fire was burning inexplicably and was very abnormal. Because the production of Valyrian steel is inherently high-temperature work, the fire resistance of the building is excellent.
But tonight, a place that was supposedly incapable of being burned by fire suddenly burned down.
Thick smoke billowed up, and the black smoke mixed with the night. The trajectory could not be seen clearly, and only the choking smell could be smelled.
Gray soot was flying in the hot air, and the flames burned people's skin.
When Gerd arrived from the other end of the workshop area, he saw a group of dwarf craftsmen working the night shift gathered together. Each one was as frightened as a bird, clutching their own forging hammers or shaping hot metal in their hands. chisel.
It's like holding on to the little sense of security you have in this dark night.
Among the dwarf craftsmen, there are also two dwarves, a half-elf and two elves.
The performance of the human craftsmen on the other side was very different from that on the opposite side. The two groups of people looked at each other nervously in the shadow of the swaying flames. No one believed anyone.
If there weren't two heavily armed demon hunters present, I'm afraid they would have started to fight with each other.
Gede's hair, which was originally tied into a ponytail, was now scattered due to strenuous activities. Berengar's ape-like long face was also stained with many black marks of ashes.
After the two demon hunters met, they both breathed a small sigh of relief. At the same time, while making eye contact, they had already communicated with each other - this fire was not normal, and this night was not normal either.
Without saying a word, the two demon hunters immediately set about moving the group of craftsmen outside the workshop area.
But on this journey, it was not smooth.
Originally, Gede took the lead, and Berengar acted as the boundary between the non-human race craftsmen and the human craftsmen, and everyone urgently moved outside together.
But halfway along the way, a human suddenly jumped on Berengar's side.
The old demon hunter was already nervous and had already unsheathed the steel sword in his hand. This time he almost struck with his sword!
But he didn't react suddenly until the man jumped on him
"hidden!"
Berengar held the man's body and felt that the touch of his leather gloves was sticky and slippery. It was the blood coming out of the man's body!
He suddenly drank!
"Someone is shooting cold arrows! Keep them hidden!"
The smell of burning blinded the witchers' sense of smell, and the sound of the flames heating the air and burning combustibles was far louder than the sound of tiny arrows piercing the air.
Therefore, neither Gede nor Berengar immediately discovered the hidden arrow that was not directed at them.
"Hidden!" Gede also shouted in response,
And with a 'bump', an invisible shock wave burst out from his hand, temporarily extinguishing a small burning building on the roadside, making it easier for people to go in and take shelter.
But it didn't work. It doesn't mean that Gede's actions were delayed, or that his temporary decision-making was unsound.
Rather
"Fuck you! I knew it was the Scoia'tael! They want to kill us all!"
"These humans are crazy! Run! Or fight back!"
Starting with a man falling to the ground after being hit by an arrow, the trust that had been barely maintained by the demon hunters collapsed in an instant.
The human and non-human races, who were already tense due to the tense situation and the atmosphere of racial discrimination, suddenly encountered abnormal fires and hidden arrow attacks that must be man-made tonight!
In just a moment, the crowd collapsed!
The sound of killing, the hammer hitting the human body, and the blood spraying became a mess!
In the deep shadow illuminated by the flames, twisted humans and non-human races fought with each other, like tangled shadows!
"Calm down! Calm down!"
The tall and powerful Gede wore thick and solid advanced armor of the Bear School and shouted loudly. Even if the craftsmen's forging hammers really hit him, he wouldn't even frown.
"Fuck you! Calm down!"
But in the end, seeing the group of people attacking each other, almost causing greater damage than the attack, Gede's freshly shaved face with beards and beards became furious!
The leather glove with Valyrian steel armor attached directly made a fist, and with a muffled sound like a sledgehammer hitting a person, it hit the craftsman with red eyes and a ferocious face on the soft and easy-to-resist belly!
The person was beaten on the spot until he hunched over like a cooked prawn, curled up and fell to the ground.
Dwarves, elves, humans, and half-elves, he beat them all equally! If anyone is so nervous that he acts violently and loses consciousness, he will ask that person to wake up.
Berengar's strategy was the same as his, except that this old guy from the Wolf School's fists were naturally not as smooth and smooth as the bear's cub.
Only more technical knockouts can be used.
However, even though he has been away from the battlefield for a long time, his skills are still much better than those of layman craftsmen.
Besides, the craftsmen were working in the workshop before, and they were so hot that they didn't even want to wear an extra shirt. Their protection was completely different from that of the fully armed demon hunters.
So it was easy to deal with these frustrated craftsmen.
But just when the two demon hunters, with their all-round advantages in equipment, technology, and physical fitness, suppressed the sudden group emotional collapse.
Gerd's fist had just knocked down a dwarf who looked like a madman, and then he supported a human who was lying down and standing unsteadily.
This person didn't look like he was emotionally collapsed. He was dodging and wanted to hide somewhere else, so Gerd didn't intend to beat him awake, but just prepared to support him.
But when the man's arm was on Gerd's arm armor.
Suddenly! The man's entire sleeve was like an active venomous snake! It began to split into several ropes from the sleeve state and tightly wrapped around Gerd's arm!
Tie the man and Gerd's arm together!
The man pulled violently, and even the strong bear schooler who was unprepared was pulled crooked.
At the same time, two short knives stabbed towards Gede's body from the chaotic and frenzied crowd!
The demon hunter's nerve reflex speed allowed Gede's right hand holding the sword to block a short knife that was heading for his neck in an instant.
And the magic shield that had been cast on himself in advance with a layer of [Quen Seal] blocked the other short knife that was heading for the weak point of the chest and abdomen connection of the armor.
The short knife, which was shaped like an armor-piercing cone, failed to stab into the connection of the armor at the most lethal angle, and only scratched a spark on the outer plate armor of the advanced bear school armor.
The three enemies around him had already surrounded him.
In this instant, although it was an emergency, Gede's nerves had been tense from the beginning, so there was nothing to be surprised at this moment.
The boots with external plate armor began to grind the ground and make a small rotation movement.
This action can transfer the power of the center of gravity upward from each bone joint.
From the soles of the feet to the knees, waist and hips, and finally to the arms, and then swing the long sword like a whip!
With the swordsmanship of the Bear School itself and the skills that Gede learned from Lan En, Gede is also making his own progress.
As long as the forefoot turns an angle of less than 20 degrees on the ground, he has the confidence to increase his power all the way to the arm!
Even if he is forced to hold the sword with one hand and the timing is hasty, this sword is enough to cut three human bodies without plate armor horizontally in the waist after it is thrown out!
He only needs a moment to kill these three bastards who are taking advantage of the situation
"Still want to do it?"
But at this moment, the man who tied himself and Gede with a magic sleeve laughed viciously.
He seemed to know Gede's swordsmanship style and the characteristics of this swordsmanship very well.
So he didn't give Gede the opportunity to transfer the center of gravity and accumulate and transmit power.
Just when he was about to do it, he suddenly pulled the arms tied together by the two.
Of course, he couldn't pull the prepared Bear School Demon Hunter to stagger like before, but it was enough to disrupt the precise flow of power in his swordsmanship skills.
Gerd was very uncomfortable. After being pulled, the power that should have been fully exerted in his arm was almost reduced to one tenth!
It looked like an amateur who had never held a sword was swinging it randomly!
So even ordinary people with daggers in their hands could easily catch this blow.
"Berengar! I."
Gerd was not rigid. He realized that he was now in an uncontrollable disadvantage because one of his hands was entangled.
So without even a second of hesitation, the Bear School Demon Hunter immediately wanted to shout for support.
But before he could finish his words.
The sneer of the enemies besieging him was interrupted by the crisp sound of a long sword knocking off a crossbow arrow in the distance!
The enemy's offensive broke out in an instant! Taking advantage of the chaotic situation!
The people on this side entangled Gerd, and Berengar on the other side was not at all relaxed.
Berengar, who had not fought for a long time and was not a natural in fighting, was sweating coldly from his forehead protector.
This was the cold sweat of nervousness and severe pain.
He barely knocked away a crossbow arrow that blended into the night under the swaying dim light, but this was the limit of the old demon hunter.
At the same time, the second crossbow arrow hit the steel collar of his high-level wolf school armor, flying away with sparks, but the impact also penetrated into his neck.
Berengar felt an unprecedented soreness and swelling in his cervical vertebrae.
He estimated that this was a bit of a dislocation of the cervical vertebrae.
Another crossbow arrow pierced his thigh directly!
This area was a mixed woven cotton armor, without Valyrian steel external armor plates.
After all, the equipment of the wolf school and the bear school had a difference in defense due to their respective fighting styles.
The arrowhead was buried in the thigh, stirring and cutting the muscles with the movement.
Berengar's cold sweat almost flowed into his eyeballs, but he half-knelt on the ground with his sword, and intuitively felt that these people didn't seem to want to kill him.
But it was just him, and others could die at will.
This made Berengar immediately understand what these enemies who came out of nowhere wanted.
The old wolf supported his long sword, but his hand smoothly touched the hanging point on the armor, and an alchemical bomb was already in his hand.
He planned to use the flash of [Dancing Star] to try to open a way out for them.
But just when the old demon hunter was about to use the small spark of [Igni Seal] to ignite the fuse of the bomb.
"."
Suddenly, a cold and silent atmosphere suddenly appeared in this chaotic and manic field. Almost everyone subconsciously quieted down.
"Dinglingling~"
Like the sound of a bell far away in the sky, it came faintly from a distance.
"Bang!"
A burst of explosions like an alchemical bomb came from the direction of the bell.
Then, one of the three people who were besieging Gede in the previous moment.
A huge blood flower suddenly burst out on his back!
The impact appeared behind him, but it did not push him forward. Instead, he just raised the dagger and his whole body was shaken, and he knelt down with sore joints.
"Swish!"
The deep and dark corners of his clothes fluttered in the air, and a tall black shadow stood behind the kneeling man.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, he slightly raised his right hand that was hooked into a claw shape, and suddenly thrust it forward!
"Puff!"
The huge amount of blood that was simply beyond common sense! It burst out from the lower back of the kneeling man!
Like a blood curtain!
