Chapter 322 During the melee,
only part of the city guards came, but none of the town guerrillas came. They were scattered in other parts of the town to defend against monsters and evacuate people, and they couldn't get away for a while.
The remaining people, led by the commander, fought hard with the enemy in the darkness, wielding weapons and spilling blood.
On one side are the mercenary groups built heavily by warlocks and the elites from Nilfgaard. They are large in number and ready to go. On the other side are the Sintra people who want to protect their homeland and the princess. They are numerically inferior and have just experienced several wars. Monsters are fighting, but their morale is high and they are not afraid of death.
For a while, they were fighting evenly, and the battle was at a stalemate.
Until Cohen arrived.
With such a big scene, Alice naturally wanted to inform him.
The griffon school witcher pulled on his gloves, took off his cloak and rolled it around his left arm.
His face was as pale as a death, with veins all over it, and he had drank several bottles of magic potion.
His body was wrapped with a swaying khaki protective seal, and he wielded an eagle-headed steel sword in his right hand, ruthlessly cutting into the enemy's camp from the outermost edge. Every time the sharp sword whistle sounded, it would bring up a handful of blood.
Demon hunters are most afraid of going to the battlefield and being surrounded by crowds. In the wild, they can single-handedly challenge monsters that dozens or even hundreds of people cannot deal with, but on the battlefield, perhaps a battle formation of ten people can make a demon hunter hate them.
But things are different now, at least not in Sintra.
Korn's arrival triggered cheers among the people of Cintra, and immediately nearby soldiers spontaneously came to his side to cover his sideways movement, protect his behind, and clear his front, creating a gap for the witcher. A space to attack and kill enemies.
Next, Cohen no longer had to swing his sword. As soon as he stretched out his hand, a torrent of extremely solid flames flew from his hand to a short distance away, igniting several human-shaped torches.
He stretched out his hand again, and knocked down several enemies with telekinesis. Immediately, the soldiers surrounding him stepped forward to harvest the enemies without any pressure.
A demon hunter who let go of his hands and feet wantonly on the battlefield showed his majesty to the intruders in this night where monsters were raging!
...
Unfortunately, everything won't go so smoothly tonight.
Suddenly, Cohen felt a sharp pain like needles in his head. If there were not Cintra people surrounding him to protect him, he might have been attacked by the enemies around him.
As advanced combat units, demon hunters can wreak havoc among soldiers, but this time the Nilfgaardians are also prepared.
The gryphon badge on his chest vibrated violently, telling his master that this was an enemy sneak attack - a sneak attack related to magic.
Cohen raised his head as if feeling something, only to see a beautiful woman not far away staring at him, her eyes seeming to swallow light outward.
That's her!
Before Cohen could react, a round object was suddenly thrown this way.
The moment he saw the thing clearly, Cohen's forehead pupils shrank, but before he could do anything, the thing exploded.
"Boom -"
The thing did not explode with flames, fragments, or poisonous gas as Cohen expected, which allowed the people of Cintra around Cohen to survive.
But what erupted from that alchemy bomb was something more serious for the griffin school of demon hunters.
Green smoke covered Cohen's body in an instant, and oily green metal dust with a touch of static electricity enveloped the demon hunter's body, and some of it entered his body along with his breath.
Cohen coughed violently, and the protective [Quen's Seal] shattered immediately, and the magic power in his body melted like spring snow at this moment, and he could no longer feel any trace of it.
[Magic-blocking Gold Bomb]
The alchemy bomb is not unique to demon hunters, but was invented by alchemists on the mainland. It's just that this weapon fits the demon hunters' fighting style very well, so it is included in their regular combat equipment.
And now, Cohen, a gryphon school demon hunter, was sneak-attacked with a magic-blocking golden bomb!
"Haha, Demon Hunter!!"
A crazy figure rushed in, waving the long sword in his hand like the scythe of death, and he took action countless times in an instant.
Before Cohen could recover from the discomfort caused by the magic gold bomb, he discovered that several Cintra people who had just defended him had been killed by this madman dressed as a bounty hunter.
"You!" Cohen's eyes were suddenly split. He raised his hand and struck out with his long sword, and struck hard with the opponent, then stabbed and slashed with the sword continuously.
"Dang-dang--"
It only took three times, and Cohen couldn't help but feel frightened. The opponent is extremely fast and surprisingly powerful. From the perspective of swordsmanship alone, Cohen is certain that only Lann, Leisuo and Gede in the entire Brochlon can hold down the opponent. They are the cats who specialize in swordsmanship that he saw when he was young. Even the witchers might not be able to defeat him.
But looking at this sneak attacker, the eyes of the dead fish have normal human pupils, and he actually made these attacks purely by relying on his talent as an ordinary person.
Where did this sword monster come from?
[This guy is probably prepared. And I had just fought fiercely for a long time and was attacked by surprise again. This was definitely not the moment to immediately tell the difference between me and him. ]
Cohen looked at the guy in front of him like a poisonous snake who had been dormant for who knows how long. His thoughts were flowing like lightning. The demon hunter with decades of rich combat experience immediately made a decision.
The only thing that could defeat him was the carefully crafted Demon Hunter plate armor on his body, so he deliberately bought a flaw and used a stainless steel wrist guard to firmly block the opponent's slash, and then thrust forward with his sword without hesitation. . Only then did he finally force the opponent away and get a chance to breathe.
A group of Nilfgaard's elites rushed out from behind the bounty hunter Bonnard. They had a tacit understanding to separate the Cintra people around them, and brought them into the melee with the mercenary group, giving Bonn a chance to fight. Nader and Cohen made a clearing.
However, there were two people who were not stopped. They rushed in desperately, without any enemies.
...
They are House, who is carrying a lion-headed sword, and Levin, who is holding two hunter's scimitars. The two men looked grim.
For the people of Cintra, they have defaulted to the setting that the demon hunters are "invincible in single combat and must be besieged to have a chance of winning." Demon hunters are all braver than ordinary people.
That's why they immediately realized the seriousness of the matter after seeing Cohen being forced back by a bounty hunter-looking person, and came to help immediately.
At this moment, two members of the "Lions" plus Cohen surrounded Bonnard in a circle.
"Hey, Witcher!" Bonnard didn't feel any nervousness about being surrounded. Instead, he calmly danced the sword flower to relax his muscles while unbuttoning his chain-link jacket.
Cohen's eyes narrowed, and then suddenly became cold. I saw three gleaming silver badges exposed on the opponent's chest - the patterns were a cat, a griffon and a wolf.
A witcher will never abandon his badge. It is not only a proof of identity, but also an important magic prediction tool. It is as important as the steel and silver swords carried behind him.
And since the opponent has three badges, there is only one possibility -
this person has three demon hunter lives in his hands.
House and Levin lowered their bodies lower, ready to pounce forward at any moment. However, they are still waiting for Cohen's move and are ready to cooperate.
"Your badge will soon be added to my collection, Demon Hunter." Bonnard felt Cohen's cold gaze and smiled sinisterly like a ghost. "It's a pity that you are also a gryphon. I I would rather have a snake or a bear."
The bounty hunter is experienced and wants to anger his opponent first.
"Of course, Lannister's griffin badge is also good. His level of prey is worth collecting..."
As soon as this sentence came out, before Cohen took action, someone else was angered.
House roared and rushed forward. Bonnard parried with a sneer and slashed back. The sound of gold and iron suddenly sounded on the battlefield.
With a "clang", just as Bonnard was preparing to counterattack extremely quickly, Levin suddenly held the bounty hunter's sword with both swords. He and House cooperated tacitly.
But bounty hunter Bonnard is not a warrior, but a killer.
Bonnard spat directly into Levin's face, immediately knocking the young man out of position. Then, without withdrawing the sword, Bonnard directly raised his knee to hit House's groin, and then hit the side of his head with the hilt of the sword once, twice, and three times.
Bonnet's blows broke House's temples, cheeks and mouth. House took off his sword, his body shook, and he saw a sword light.
"clang"!
This time, it was Cohen who parried Bonnard's sword, and the Griffin School demon hunter finally recovered from the discomfort just now.
House seized the opportunity to pick up the sword, and the three of them rushed towards Bonnard at the same time.
The bounty hunter became even more excited when he saw this.
"Dance, play music!" He widened his emotionless fish eyes.
House roared and jumped forward, still launching the second round of attacks.
Bonnard turned around and jumped up. His right leg landed firmly on the ground and he immediately thrust out a sword.
But before his sword intersected with House's sword, Levine appeared from the side like a cheetah and slashed twice like a ghost.
Bonnet raised his sword to block, and used the inertia to slightly bend his knees, narrowly avoiding Cohen's well-timed sneak attack. Then he raised his knee and knocked Levin away and quickly launched a counterattack, slashing and slashing at the three of them with his long sword.
Cohen bore the brunt of the attack and shared most of the pressure. He resisted the discomfort while blocking and retreating, almost losing his balance. He jumped up at the last moment to avoid it, but Bonnet's sword struck him in the shoulder.
Before Bonnard continued to use force to remove Cohen's arm, Levine and House also swung their weapons at the same time, narrowly and narrowly forcing Bonnard back again.
"Okay, okay, okay!" The three badges on Leo Bonnard's chest rose and fell with his breathing, and a sickly flush crept up his neck.
Cohen adjusted his shoulders and repositioned himself, preparing to face a new round of attacks with the two people behind him.
The killer in front of him couldn't attack for a long time, but he became more and more excited, as if he had seen some treasure.
Cohen and the others thought that there would be a more violent attack next, but the bounty hunter in front of them suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs in their surprised eyes:
"Kenna!"
Cohen's face suddenly changed, and he remembered That magical attack at the beginning.
This move was unavoidable. At that moment, Cohen had already thought about how to use his armor and flesh to deal with the attack of the killer in front of him and create opportunities for the two companions behind him.
However, nothing happened.
...
The psionicist Kenna covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming, and curled up into a ball with all her strength.
Fortunately, she was smart and hid in a bunker nearby. She wasn't wearing any armor, and she didn't look very ferocious, so the people of Cintra didn't notice her for the time being.
An arrow penetrated her shoulder entirely.
If not for the psionicist's amazing intuition, the arrow should have appeared in her neck.
No matter what, she wouldn't show her face again for the rest of the night.
At the place where the arrow was shot, Milva held down the trembling bowstring and looked behind her in shock.
Just now, a troll mantis was attracted by the noise of the battle between the two armies, but it first noticed Milva who was sniping at the enemy alone from a high place.
At that time, the female attendant wanted to urge Heifeng to take the princess and run away quickly, while she stayed to break up the rear. However, the princess stabilized herself first, continued to snipe at the enemy, and then launched a puzzling offensive...
Taking a deep breath, Ciri stood up from the corpse of the troll mantis.
She wiped the blood on her forehead and jumped to Milva's side deftly. After observing the battle for a while, Xili pointed at the melee of four people that no one dared to approach and asked Milva: "Look over there, can you shoot that guy who looks so annoying?" Milva said steadily
. Zhu Pangpang glanced for a while and shook his head: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, they are too close. I'm worried about accidental injury."
Xili frowned, but still said: "It's okay, you are already very powerful."
Mir Wa became nervous when she heard the princess's comfort. She had a bad feeling: "Your Highness, you don't want to..."
Without finishing her words, Ciri knew what these nervous subordinates were thinking.
"Don't worry, how can I get involved in a melee that even the three of them, including Cohen, can't defeat? Even if I learn magic now, I'm looking for death. I'm not so reckless!" Milva breathed a sigh of relief
.
"Then please let me escort you to Blochronson first..." She still didn't want Ciri to be in such a dangerous place.
However, Shirley had already found a wall with posters on it and called softly to her bust on it: "Alice, are you there? Alice -" The
poster with Lan's bust next to him suddenly burned. The emerald flame lit up, and the soul in the painting emerged from it: "I'm here." "
Why do you have to come out from Lan En's portrait... Forget it, don't tell me, I can guess it." Xili Gu She puffed her cheeks and asked, "How are the guerrillas and Regis fighting over there? Can you free up your hands to support this side?"
Alice looked back at Lann's poster, and the flames on it burned even more intensely.
She connected countless windows through the flames, giving a panoramic view of everything in the town of Blochlon.
"Almost." Alice replied, "The guerrillas are already on the way. Regis is still dealing with some chimeras in the sky, and they will be here soon."
Milva stared at the battlefield nervously: "But Cohen They seem to be unable to hold on anymore... I'm going to delay for a while..."
Ciri showed an excited look first: "Great, it's just the time for me to enter!"
Milva's eyes widened in horror. Eyes: "Wait, Your Highness..."
...
Xili jumped on Heifeng's back as lightly as a swallow, grabbed the reins and made the horseman with beast eyes stand up.
"hissing law——"
The loud neighing attracted the attention of the soldiers around the battlefield. When they saw Ciri's silver-gray hair and the extraordinarily tall horse, they couldn't help but open their mouths in surprise.
"Come on, Black Wind!" Ciri roared immaturely, "Let them see how powerful we are!"
Milva stretched out her hand to Ciri's back in vain, then looked back at Alice, as if asking why she didn't stop her. Princess.
The soul in the painting lowered her head: "Milva, this is her responsibility. She is a princess after all, and she is no longer a child." In the ethereal voice
, she turned into a bright emerald flame and disappeared, leaving a voice: " I'll urge Regis again."
