Chapter 210: Unkillable

Chapter 210: Unkillable

The footsteps grew clearer and clearer, and soon, three figures appeared at the entrance of the cave. With no known source of light, three long shadows were projected outside the cave.

Redal quietly peeked out from behind the boulder, and as the shadows swayed, the three figures came into his sight.

They were all quite sturdy, each about 1.8 meters tall, with almost identical heights.

Their clothes were made of animal skins, giving them the appearance of savages.

Redal muttered under his breath, "Could they be from the Savage Tribe?"

Among the four wildling tribes, Joffrey, the strongest leader of the Black Collar tribe, was only a high-level knight.

If these cave dwellers were the same type of fugitives as Joffrey and the others, they wouldn't be much stronger.

He finally let go of the worry in his heart.

The three men walked out of the cave, stretched themselves, and inhaled the outside air.

They were chatting and laughing when suddenly they fell silent.

One of them sniffed the air. "What's that smell?"

"Oh my god, do I smell a stranger?"

"There is no doubt, this is the smell of a living person!"

"Haha, let me sniff out where they are!"

The three sniffed the air eagerly, their faces becoming increasingly excited.

Redal's heart skipped a beat. The other party's sense of smell was so sharp? He quickly pulled back his head and gestured to the others behind the boulder to keep quiet.

Tom and the others had heard what was said. Their hearts raced, and they tensed up, daring not to make a move.

Tap, tap, tap...

There was no dialogue, just the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer to the boulder where the five were hiding.

Redal's face darkened; he knew they had been discovered.

In this situation, instead of sitting and waiting to be captured, it was better to take the initiative and catch the other party off guard.

Whoosh! With his long sword in hand, Redal burst out from behind the boulder.

Under the moonlight, he moved as fast as a ghost and as fierce as a roaring tiger.

"Hahaha, there really is someone!"

"There's meat to eat~"

"Take him down!"

Instead of being frightened, the three men came forward excitedly.

Bang, bang!

The battle broke out, but it was one-sided.

With his agile movements, Redal dodged the combined attack of the three opponents, then kicked two of them away with his powerful legs. His long sword successfully pierced the heart of the third man.

"Commander, you are so strong!"

Tom and his three companions emerged from behind the boulder just in time to witness this scene, their mouths agape in shock.

Redal finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This valley was indeed strange, but the people here were not formidable.

But just as he was about to withdraw his sword, the man whose heart he had stabbed raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a puzzling smile.

"I caught you!"

He grabbed Redal's arm with his left hand, then raised his right hand and stabbed at Redal's chest with the sword in his hand.

The sudden turn of events alarmed Redal, sending a chill down his spine.

Without time to think, he kicked off the ground and swiftly pulled back.

Swish~ The sword tip still grazed Redal's leather jacket, leaving a bloody mark on his chest.

Redal retreated and tried to use his fighting spirit to seal the wound, but it seemed to have no effect.

Meanwhile, his opponent, whose heart was stabbed, charged at him as if nothing had happened.

"What's going on?"

Redal didn't understand what was happening, but he dodged the opponent's attack despite his injuries while stabbing the opponent's body with his sword again.

This time he pulled back immediately to prevent any surprises.

After being pierced for the second time, the opponent still seemed unharmed. At the same time, the two men Redal had kicked away also regrouped and surrounded him!

"What the hell is this?" Redal had never encountered such a phenomenon before. He could fight them easily, but he couldn't kill them!

Bang, bang!

He kicked one of the men away again, and a brilliant light burst from Redal's sword.

"Explosive Flame Slash!"

This was the fighting skill Redal had mastered after being promoted to the silver level. Although difficult to master, its power was proportional to the difficulty of learning.

The extremely compressed fire-attributed fighting spirit emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the entire valley.

With a loud bang, the Explosive Flame Slash struck the monster that rushed over and actually chopped him into pieces!

Redal stood puzzled, his mind racing.

The power of Explosive Flame Slash was indeed strong, but not enough to pulverize a person. What was going on?

The events of the night were beyond his comprehension.

"Obi!"

"You killed Obie!"

Two heart-wrenching cries of pain echoed through the valley, and the loud noise from the Explosive Flame Slash had startled the others in the cave.

"Run!"

Redal shouted in a deep voice and simultaneously unleashed two flaming blows to hold back the attackers.

This situation was too bizarre; he had to evacuate with his men first.

Just as they left, seven or eight figures emerged from the cave. After hearing the report from the two survivors, they roared angrily and chased after Redal and his team.

In Ziguo Village, Tom recounted his experience that night with lingering fear.

"There was a very strong person in that group. George and I, along with the other two, were too slow and were caught up. The commander had to stay behind to protect us."

Tom's face was filled with gratitude and respect for Redal.

"Although the commander's strength was comparable to that of the opponent, after he was entangled, another bronze-level person from the opponent followed him."

"One against two, the commander used the Explosive Flame Slash to force the two to retreat, fighting and retreating. They fought for three miles before the other side stopped chasing and retreated."

Ronin's expression was solemn. "Did Redal suffer serious injuries in the fight?"

"Yes, in addition to the initial scratch on the chest, his left arm was stabbed in the subsequent battle."

Tom looked disappointed. "With the healing spell scroll you gave us, we thought we could heal it quickly, but strange things kept happening. The wound on the commander's arm can't heal. Not only does it keep bleeding, but it's also showing signs of rotting!"

You would think that the skin and flesh of a Silver Knight, already strengthened at the Bronze level, would heal slowly even without treatment, but there would definitely be no rot.

"How is Redal doing now?"

Luo Ning climbed onto his Cloud-Stepping Horse. He had originally planned to return to Shanlin Town, but now he had to head to Heitu Town to investigate.

"It's not good!"

Tom said bitterly: "It took us ten days to get back. The commander was so weak that we had to carry him on our backs for the last two days."

It was unbelievable that two external injuries could debilitate a silver-level knight to this extent.

Moreover, the man in the valley who couldn't be killed even by stabbing made it all the more unbelievable.

What on earth were those creatures? Are they even human?

How could such beings exist in Wubei?

Would they follow the route into several towns?

Ronin felt heavy-hearted, but he knew he had to face it.

"Horn, go to Shanlin Town to find Macken and ask him to bring Baburin to Black Earth Town."

"Yes, sir!"

Whether for defense or to further investigate that strange valley, Ronin needed to gather his forces.

"Tom, come with me."

Luo Ning called out, drove the Cloud Horse, and rushed to Black Earth Town at top speed.
