Chapter 8 - More

When Hellagur returned, he found that the battle was still going on.

Emil faced the female knight and Marco alone. Emil and Marco were both injured, but the woman had no visible injuries at all.

The three men moved very quickly. There was a team of archers surrounding them, but they could only watch and did not dare to shoot.

Because these three men were too fast, they didn't have the eyesight and accuracy to hit Emil.

Herag observed the surrounding terrain and found a position where he could attack or defend. Then he drew his bow and shot an arrow, killing an archer.

"Someone!" The archers immediately found a place to hide.

They couldn't see Hellagur's location and could only blindly shoot a few arrows into the dark forest.

Herag counted and found that there were eight archers left, and he was ready to kill them all.

Swoosh! Another arrow shot out, killing an archer hiding behind a large rock.

After killing this man, Herag changed his position again, ran to another angle, and killed another archer hiding behind a tree.

These archers were completely terrified. They had no way of finding Herag. No matter how hard they tried to hide, arrows would always come from behind or from the side, making it impossible to avoid them.

Marco and the female knight had no time to pay attention to them. The battle between the three had reached a fever pitch and no one could be distracted to deal with Hellagur.

A one-sided massacre began. Hellagur transformed into the god of death and took away an archer with one arrow.

Ten minutes later, all the archers were killed.

After killing the people, Hellagur continued to hide in the mountains and forests, drawing his bow and arrow, but not shooting.

He was waiting, waiting for the right opportunity to strike.

The three of them were very fast. Deep Blue was calculating at high speed, and as long as Hellagur found an opportunity, he would take action immediately.

The female knight seemed to be keeping an eye on Hellagur all the time, leaving room for maneuver when she attacked, and she couldn't find any opportunity at all.

Marco was blood-thirsty and vowed to fight Emil to the death. Herag thought this was a breakthrough.

After all, they are human beings, not machines, and humans always make mistakes.

If there is a mistake, Deep Blue will definitely catch it, it is not human.

"Marco, this man is not far from the great knight. I have suffered a huge loss on this order of yours. I will have to pay more after the deal is concluded." The female knight said softly.

Marco was inexplicably angry and shouted angrily, "Shut up! If you had used all your strength, you would have killed him long ago!"

"If I use all my strength, he will fight us desperately. If we continue like this, he will die sooner or later. Why choose a more risky method?" The female knight chuckled.

The battle between the three lasted for a full hour and was still going on.

At this time, they were obviously a little tired, and their speed and strength had decreased a lot.

Marco took a deep breath and yelled, "It's time to end it!"

The muscles all over his body swelled up, as if he had used some secret method. He held the big sword in both hands, jumped up and chopped it vertically. Emil could only resist this move with all his strength.

But if he resists with all his strength, it will give the female knight a chance.

whoosh!

At this moment, a calm shot suddenly came, and Marco, who was in the air, had no way to avoid it.

Marco screamed and covered his eyes with his hands as an arrow shot into his left eye.

Emile seized the opportunity and slashed horizontally, sending Marco's head flying and rolling to the ground.

The female knight who was about to attack saw this scene, jumped back two steps, and put away her rapier.

"Huh?" Emil was a little confused. He was ready to fight to the death with the female knight.

The female knight explained, "I was hired by him. Now that my employer is dead, there's no reason to continue fighting. I'm not a battle fanatic. Besides, he only paid me for my actions, not my life."

She said this and walked away, not even glancing at Marco's head as she passed by.

"Lord Emil!" Herag ran over quickly.

Emil breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile, "I thought you were dead, but your arrow was beautiful. By the way, you're not dead?"

When Sean went to chase Hellagur, Emil felt a little regretful. He didn't think Hellagur could escape the pursuit of this knight-level assassin.

"My arrow was poisoned and he only got a little skin broken." Herag laughed.

Emil sighed, "Even if he was poisoned, he could easily kill you. You're quite capable of surviving."

He sighed and continued, "See how many horses are left, tie up Hagen and the others' bodies, and take them home."

Herag turned back and went into the woods, and found that the eight horses were still alive and well, not affected by the previous battle.

He tied the bodies of the two guards to the horses, and he and Emir rode one horse each in front, and the remaining horses followed automatically behind.

Two days later, Herag and his companions met Baron Buck who came to support them on the way.

Baron Buck was a middle-aged man with a face full of flesh and dressed in tight clothes. He didn't look like a nobleman at all.

After listening to Emir's report, he said, "It's not that simple, Emir. They are not just coming for you."

"My lord, what else happened?" asked Emile.

"That Marco is a subordinate of that bastard Simon next door. While they were attacking you, they also attacked the southern mine. They thought they could get rid of you this time, and then I would lose a capable general." Baron Buck said slowly.

Simon is the lord of the Behard territory and a baron.

However, the territory he was in was short of resources and had low taxation, so he often made small moves against the surrounding territories.

Baron Buck continued, "Behard is suffering from a severe drought and famine this year, and their territory is already in chaos. Meanwhile, our Dur Valley is experiencing a bumper harvest, so they'll likely make further moves. We must be on high alert during this period."

"I understand, my lord." Emile nodded.

Baron Buck looked at Hellagur and said, "Your name is...oh...Hellagur, right? Well done, boy!"

Hellagur shot and killed twenty people alone, and even killed a knight-level assassin. This matter has spread.

The guards brought by Baron Buck were somewhat skeptical, but since Emil said this himself, it couldn't be false.

Herag didn't care about it, nor did he care about other people's evaluations and opinions.

He now only wants to improve his strength as quickly as possible. When facing Sean, if he makes a mistake or has bad luck, he will be dead.

"Deep Blue, check Baron Buck's physical data." He was very curious about the strength of the Great Knight.

"Buck Sara: Strength 8, Agility 5, Constitution 1, Spirit 3. His entire body is filled with unknown energy."

In the previous life, such data would have been considered superhuman.

What concerned Herag even more was that Baron Buck's body was filled with unknown energy.

Knights like Emil and Sean simply have unknown energy in their bodies.

When Sean was chasing him, he used unknown energy, and his data in all aspects improved a lot, and he even pierced the tree trunk with a dagger.

"Baron Buck's body is filled with unknown energy. Does this mean that his casual attack has the power to surpass Sean's when he explodes?" Herag guessed in his heart.
