24 Throwing Knives Show Their Migh (1/2)
Even though Third Bandit Chief was not lured away by Gan Daniu and the others as Happy expected, the group from Black Wind Mountain was still divided into two, and their chances for saving the women had just risen greatly.
Happy was happy. He was prepared to turn back to help Gan Daniu and the others handle the seven lackeys!
Even though the mountain bandits' fighting abilities were so good that they were better than the local rascals when they decided to be ruthless, the Lancet Knife Throwing Technique was not like a normal martial art. It was a skill that required a great deal of money and time to be trained, and both its lethality and ability to stay hidden were much higher than those of a normal martial art. In fact, it had the advantage to kill others in one shot before a battle.
As long as the throwing knife hit a person's vital spot, they would die before even getting close to Happy!
This was why Happy had been willing to spend a few days to practice his skills to throw knives. There were plenty of times when the lancet knives could help him achieve goals that other martial arts could not achieve.
He had not spent around three thousand taels of silver crumbs over the past few days in vain!
Once Third Bandit Chief left, Happy was prepared to go back into the bush, but suddenly, the sound of the carriage speeding up rose behind him, and Third Bandit Chief's fierce barks made Happy stop in his footsteps.
”Hurry up! Just a little more, and we'll reach the outer sentry post. Once we're there, hand the women over and have our men bring them back to the mountain stronghold. Then, we'll go back and take revenge for Fourth Leg!”
”Got it, Third Bandit Chief!”
”Hey, wenches, get in the carriages! Did you hear me?!”
When he spread the bush to look, Happy saw the two mountain bandits chasing the captured women into the carriage. They were prepared to hurry back to Black Wind Mountain. This made a crease appear between Happy's dashing eyebrows.
He did not have time to protect Gan Daniu, Zhu Zi, and Tie Dan. He then quietly brought out a lancet knife from behind his waist…
Shick!
With a flick of his wrist, the lancet knife sliced through the air.
His timing was perfect. While the two mountain bandits were busy chasing the woman to the carriage and their companions were busy chasing down the ”murderer”, they were not on guard at all. The lancet knife hit its target again and sank deep into the back of one of the bandit's chest.
”Killed one mountain bandit in Gate Realm. Received 20 chivalry points. Received 10 reputation points!” the system told him.
”Damn it!”
When Third Bandit Chief heard the sound of the knife slicing through the air, he knew that an accident had occurred. He cursed and turned his head around. When he did so, he saw another one of his brothers fall to the ground. He instantly became filled with rage and no longer cared about anything!
He used his lightness skill and jumped with ease into the air to soar like a huge bird. When he looked down, he immediately discovered a blue-robed boy hiding behind the bushes and trees. He was the one who had attacked them and killed his brothers.
”You brat! Die!”
The person who had killed two of his brothers was actually someone so young?!
Third Bandit Chief was a despicable man who did many evil things, and at that moment, he was unable to contain his rage; he felt as if he had been toyed around and humiliated. He brandished his axe and roared in the air! His shining greataxe swung down with a momentum that could split open mountains and went straight for Happy's head.
”Idiot.”
Happy originally intended to avoid the fury of Third Bandit Chief, who was one of the most powerful martial artists in Gate Realm, but when he saw the man jump into the air where he had no way of drawing force from anything else, he could not help but push down his urge to run away. A strange smile appeared on his lips.
He calmly swiped his hand across his waist!
He threw his knife with well-practiced ease. His third lancet knife grazed past Third Bandit Chief's fearsome axe as if it had eyes attached on it.
Third Bandit Chief saw the throwing knife rush at him, but he did not have time to change his attack.
He tilted his head to the side, but even though he managed to avoid the life-threatening danger of the lancet knife hitting his face, a clear trail of blood still appeared on his face. In a panic, he lost his balance in the air!
Naturally, Happy would not miss such a good chance. He turned around and with an even faster throw, another lancet knife ”shot out” from his waist, as if Happy had just performed a magic trick.
This time, Third Bandit Chief did not manage to dodge it, because his body had lost its balance.
Pain exploded in his lower body. The lancet knife had sank into his thigh. Third Bandit Chief rolled on the ground as if he was a kite that had its string snapped. He crashed in an extremely pathetic manner, and even the mountain bandit by the carriage was shocked.
An extremely rare chance had finally appeared in front of Happy after much trouble, so there was no way that he would let go of the advantage that had landed straight into his hands. He focused his attention, and two lancet knives flew out of his hands at the same time.
Cling! Clang!
