Chapter 3 (2/2)

Norman is an old soldier brought back by Knight Bennet from the battlefield. After returning from the battlefield, he followed Knight Bennet and his family to settle down in the castle of Bennet. This is also an attitude of the nobles towards the servants, which not only makes them grateful to the nobles, but also fundamentally guarantees their loyalty.

Norman swordsmanship is superior. He became a level 6 warrior by relying on the warrior's Secret skills provided by Knight Bennet. Although he has no special skills, he is also very powerful by relying on his excellent swordsmanship. So when Abe went out, Knight Bennet always let Norman go with him at ease.”Stop, young master.”

Norman had drawn his sword from behind and held it in his hand, his eyes fixed on the woods by the road. It's half an hour from the castle and half an hour from the town of Libao. There's no way to turn to both sides for help if something goes wrong.

Abel took the horse, pulled out the fine iron dagger sent by Zach from his waist, and asked softly, ”what did you find?”

Abel was much higher than Norman at once, but he did not find anything after careful observation. In a strange roar, a black shadow came out of the forest. Now Abel saw that it was a shadow leopard.

The speed of the shadow leopard is so fast that it runs to the horse in front of it in a few steps and bites the neck of the horse. The horse is the offspring of the war horse. In this critical moment, the horse neighs and jumps back, just letting the shadow leopard's inevitable bite.

Norman had already rushed up, and the sword had struck forward, with a shrill voice in the air, and it had already struck the shadow leopard. The shadow leopard is not an ordinary leopard. It usually doesn't appear in the daytime and still appears on the road. Its favorite is to hide in the dark and wait for the prey to pass by. When it bites the prey's neck, it is estimated that the shadow leopard is too hungry to rush out of the forest to find the prey.

The speed of the shadow leopard is too fast. Every attack of Norman is dodged by the shadow leopard, and the attack of the shadow leopard is not very effective. The experienced Norman can always successfully block the attack of the shadow leopard with his big sword.

Abel jumped down from the horse and came closer to the battlefield. The shadow leopard didn't care about the short man. Experience told him that if he knocked down the man with the sword in front of him, he would have enough food.

He didn't enter the battlefield immediately. Abel was just slowly looking for opportunities around the battlefield. Entering the battlefield at this time would only cause Norman more trouble. For the shadow leopard, the weak dwarf human, even if he tried his best, could not break its fur.

At this time, Norman's first contact with the shadow leopard began. Norman's sword was cut on the back of the shadow leopard. It was originally a sword to be cut to the neck. When the shadow leopard wriggled, it gave way to the key point. The tail of the shadow leopard drew on Norman's leg. Norman's face showed a painful expression, and his step back was a little staggering because of his leg injury.

At this moment, Abel took a deep breath, and a powerful force came out of the Qi. This is a way for the trainee knight to overdraw his body. There is only one stroke. A large amount of Qi in the Qi changes into power in a moment. If there is a second stroke, the Qi will be broken irremediably.

That is to say, at that moment when the shadow leopard is in the middle of the sword and flicks its tail, there is a pause in the air. This is the chance that Abel has been waiting for a long time. When he stepped on the ground, people have rushed out. The shadow leopard in the air also saw Abel's figure, but the just injury is not fatal, but it also affects its activities. Abel's dagger goes to the shadow leopard Behind him, he reached out and inserted himself through its back door.

”Oh ~ ~” the shadow leopard howled, and Abel had released his dagger. The man had retreated, and then a black tail swept through Abel.

Norman hobbled Abel behind him with a wound. The shadow leopard was rolling on the ground. Its voice was getting smaller and smaller, and it stopped moving.

As Abel was about to check, Norman grabbed Abel and said, ”be careful.” Then he took the scabbard off his back and threw it at the shadow leopard. At the moment when he was about to hit the shadow leopard, the shadow leopard suddenly stretched out its claws and grabbed it on the scabbard. There was no sound.

Norman went up to pick up the scabbard from the ground, looked at the paw mark on it and said to Abel, ”master, many wild animals have the habit of the last strike.”

Then he lifted up the body of the shadow leopard from the ground, looked at the wound of the back door, took out the dagger from the wound, and said with a smile, ”this was killed by the young master, how to deal with it?”

”Take it to town and sell it.”

Abel looked at Norman's legs again and said, ”next you ride and put the shadow Leopard on it.”

Norman is not polite. For him, his life is all of the Bennett family. His injury doesn't affect his journey. The best way is to ride his own horse.
