The brave man opened the coffin and rose

Kronos was about to say something when he turned around and saw a dozen red strips flashing outside the basement door.

One of the long strips was much longer than the surrounding ones.

"They! They're coming!"

There was a hint of worry between the girl's brows, but in a blink of an eye, the worry was replaced by a sense of security.

Because, after having a handy weapon, Abes instantly became energetic.

The half-sword that was supposed to be driven by both hands was wielded by Abes with one hand with great force.

It is obvious that the brave man is definitely stronger after obtaining the weapon than when he was holding the candlestick and wooden javelin just now.

When the dozen or so lizardmen saw that the door of the basement was closed again, they immediately realized that something was wrong. They did not approach the door of the basement, but retreated to a certain distance.

A dozen lizardmen, led by a small cadre, raised their weapons in unison.

As long as someone comes out of the basement, he will surely be met with a barrage of attacks.

However, when the door of the basement slowly opened driven by magic, Abes, who had been prepared, suddenly leaped out like a lurking leopard.

The lizardman who was about to take aim heard a whistling sound in his ears, followed by a pain in his knee.

As he fell uncontrollably, a sharp half-sword was also thrown into the air.

The next moment, the head that resembled a snake and a dragon rolled to the side.

In order to cause damage when throwing a spear, the target should be the larger torso rather than the upper and lower limbs which are easy to dodge.

Because of this, Abes, who almost crawled out, successfully avoided the first round of spears, and after quickly approaching, he eliminated the first enemy.

"what?"

The companions on both sides of the attacked Lizardmen were a little confused for a moment - there were more than a dozen people on their side, and the leader had asked them to prepare for battle in advance.

And they have even launched their first attack.

But how come the arrangement that seemed to be a sure win just now led to death the next moment?

Lizardman's blood is no different from human blood, and also has a strong smell of rust.

However, the blood-covered lizardman and Abes acted completely differently.

The former shrank back, while the latter, like a ferocious jackal, did not stop after the first attack but accelerated its attack.

With a wave of his sword, the two lizardmen on the left and right followed the same path as the previous lizardman.

It was not until this time, after three people were killed by Abes, that the rest of the lizardman team seemed to have ended their sleepwalking and time had stopped and resumed.

They raised their javelins with a roar and rushed towards the enemy who had already attacked them.

----------

Orchio, the leader of the team, who was behind the dozen people, couldn't help but shrink back.

Bad thing.

More than half an hour ago, after the attack on the farm ended, the captain had already counted the casualties.

And if I report it now and lose three brothers...

Don’t think that the captain was very easy to talk to when he asked about the refined gold. That was because what he asked for met the requirements of the ceremony.

If the situation involves casualties, even if you want to beg for mercy, you may not be able to save your life.

After thinking for a few moments, Orchio made up his mind that he must catch the culprit in front of him.

If you want to fight the captain's anger, you can only start with what the captain cares about.

What the captain cares about is the ceremony, and the ceremony requires scaleless people, either a large number of scaleless people or powerful scaleless people.

Since this guy in front of me can cause casualties, he must be a powerful one.

In other words, if you can catch the guy in front of you, you can survive.

As for the question of whether he could win or not, Orchio did not consider it.

Are you kidding? I have more than a dozen elite lizardman warriors around me.

And with a team of dozens of people, they can easily take over an entire farm.

What can a mere scaleless person do?

Orchio slowly took out the crossbow and began to load arrows and string the crossbow.

And in the process, he did not forget to give orders.

"Attack! Engage!"

"You go over there and surround them!"

"Don't block your companions' attack direction."

"Attack in batches. Those who are retreating should switch weapons quickly."

Following the orders from the leading lizardman, a dozen blood-red strips moved in an orderly manner in Abes's field of vision.

"What's going on, visual interference?"

Abes rubbed his eyes, but soon he realized the change in the situation on the field.

To kill with such fierceness again——was beginning to become difficult.

The lizardmen who were just caught off guard by me and were able to easily kill three of them have not become stronger.

However, under the excellent coordination of the guy hiding behind the team, every time Abes wanted to chop off the enemy's head with a sword, another weapon would try to attack his wrist or joints, forcing him to return to defense.

The orders issued by the other side to attack in batches and switch weapons greatly increased the danger level of the Lizardmen.

After a short struggle, the lizardmen who originally used wooden javelins gradually changed their weapons to scimitars hanging on their waists.

"Enemy that can switch weapons and attack types... The novice level was too easy before, and I misjudged the difficulty."

Abes's eyes narrowed, but he immediately thought of a way to crack it.

"All the changes are due to the commander. We just need to deal with him first."

The next second, Abes suddenly exerted force, and the enemies who were surrounding him were pushed back several steps by the sudden burst of force.

Then, Abes threw his half-sword at the lizardman leader who was hiding behind the team.

It was a weapon that he had finally obtained, but it was thrown out by Abes.

The cold light of the half-sword flashed past the side of the leading lizardman, and then stabbed into the mud ground of the farm.

Orchio took a few steps back, with large chunks of the hard scales on his head already broken.

He covered his head in pain, and then he realized that at this moment, a very familiar light crossbow was already in Abes's hand.

His weapon—was taken away by the scaleless man in front of him?

When something is projected towards the eyes, living things will have the instinct to subconsciously blink and reach out to stop it.

Even if you hold something in your hand, it won't work. Without rigorous training, the instincts of living things are difficult to restrain.

Because of this, Abes was able to snatch the light crossbow from the opponent.

Click——

As the light crossbow with a string already strung fell into his hand, Abes did not stop, and instantly completed the transition from seizing the weapon to aiming at the key position and launching the attack.

Having lost his weapon, Orzio tried desperately to get it back, but the next moment, the tip of the iron crossbow arrow was inserted into his mouth and then pierced his brain vertically.

The shock of their leader's death made the surrounding lizardmen, who saw the bad situation, stop in their tracks.

But giving a person with a long-range weapon a chance to catch his breath, the results are self-evident.

Abes turned around and pulled the trigger of the crossbow again.

The lizardman closest to Abes, wielding a scimitar, was instantly nailed by a crossbow arrow on his wrist joint.

"No, we can't retreat. We can't let him wind up again!"

Realizing that something was wrong, the lizardmen team approached again, but the next second, with a turn of Abes's wrist, the half-sword stuck in the ground returned to his hand again.

"After losing your leader, your attack was a complete mess..."

After losing their command, the enemy simply attacked in a swarm.

And Abes only needs to deal with one or two enemies at the same time.

With the death of the commander, the balance of victory has completely tipped towards Abes.
