Chapter 337 Burnt to Ashes
Pirosa was certainly aware of the deterioration of the situation. Although Pirosa was a legendary knight, he actually cherished his life very much.
After being promoted to a legend, Pirosa had a very high social status and got everything he wanted. In fact, his fighting spirit declined seriously. Seeing that the situation was getting more and more critical, Pirosa became more and more panic in his heart, and even occasionally fell into regret.
But at this moment, no matter how he struggled, it was useless.
Even if he kowtowed and begged for mercy, Richard would not let him go.
Pirosa was a legendary knight. When a professional entered the legendary realm, the essence of life would be different. Both physical fitness and mental strength have been greatly improved, and the realm of legendary professionals has also begun to take shape.
Awakening the legendary realm can protect one's soul. Even if the seal of the kingship is stamped, it is impossible to restrain the legendary professional. Even if Pirosa swears to serve Harland, Richard can never rest assured about him.
In the current situation, no matter who comes to plead, Richard will do his best to take Pirosa's life.
Even the two major transnational chambers of commerce, which have close relations with Pirosa and have been partners for many years, dare not act rashly at this time.
Pirosa's attack on Richard in the northern region of Nolan angered almost all the nobles of the Kingdom of Grant. This behavior is equivalent to publicly slapping the face of the Kingdom of Grant. If Pirosa escapes, the entire Kingdom of Grant will become a laughing stock.
Fortunately, the two countries are far away. If they are close, this behavior will immediately provoke a war between the two countries.
At this moment, the nobles of the Kingdom of Grant are all supporters of Richard. Especially the great nobles, their attitude is more determined.
Even if Richard fails to besiege Pirosa, they will not let Pirosa leave the Kingdom of Grant.
In the western region of the Duke of York, under the organization of the Kingdom of Roger, sixteen high-level professionals and eight hundred Warcraft cavalry have been assembled.
This elite force is composed of more than a dozen great nobles. Almost all the nobles took the initiative to volunteer and contributed manpower to form an elite force. They are ready for the second encirclement.
Once Pirosa escapes from Richard, this elite force will take the initiative to attack, and under the guidance of the lion-duck cavalry provided by the royal family, they will take Pirosa's life.
There are lion-duck cavalry watching in the sky, and there are enemy soldiers hundreds of miles away. The most troublesome thing is that Richard and others launch a surprise attack from time to time, so that Pirosa can't rest at all.
For seven days, Pirosa has only eaten a small amount of raw food and dared not sleep or close his eyes. Richard and the other nine have had several short rests, and their condition is far better than the enemy.
Pirosa leaned against a big tree, his brain running at high speed, his eyes staring fiercely at the lion-duck cavalry in the sky. The two constantly rotating lion-duck cavalry were the key reason why he fell into such a difficult environment.
Pirosa also awakened his extraordinary vision, and even the telescope in the hands of the lion-duck cavalry could see clearly. Although he had never seen such strange equipment, Pirosa quickly figured out the effect of the equipment.
Pirosa tried to ambush the Lion Duck Cavalry several times, but the two Lion Duck Cavalry received strict military orders from Richard and would not fly at low altitude or get too close to Pirosa. Under this tactical pursuit, Pirosa could only fall into the net step by step.
Several sharp arrows shot fiercely, Pirosa suppressed his sleepiness, swung his enchanted sword to block two armor-piercing arrows, and then raised his fighting spirit to release the protective force field.
A special light circle surrounded Pirosa from head to toe, blocking the attack of the remaining armor-piercing arrows.
However, these armor-piercing arrows were very powerful, desperately penetrating the protective force field, and the arrowheads violently pierced into the enchanted armor, destroying the magic runes of this eighth-level armor.
After many battles, this enchanted armor has blocked more than 30 precious armor-piercing arrows. Richard, Sylph and others have consumed tens of thousands of gold coins on armor-piercing arrows alone.
Now the effect of the enchanted armor on Pirosa has been reduced by 40%, which is only equivalent to the level of the sixth-level defensive armor.
After the arrow fell, Undine immediately released the six-ring magic chain lightning.
More than ten dark clouds appeared above Pirosa's head, and instantly released dense lightning. Several lightnings fell every second. These lightnings were blue-green and also accompanied by scorching high temperatures.
Although there was no lightning staff blessing, Undine was an eight-ring magician after all, and she also awakened the powerful spellcasting talent. The magic she released was very powerful.
Lightning struck around Pirosa, and violently collided with the protective force field released by Pirosa. The two powerful energies collided together and immediately produced a violent explosion.
Dazzling light burst out around Pirosa, and Richard heard a violent roar in an instant.
After the light scattered, Pirosa rushed towards Undine in a panic. The protective force field around him had weakened a lot. This magic greatly consumed the energy of Pirosa's protective force field.
Pirosa was a man with rich combat experience. He knew clearly that at this moment, if he could not severely injure the two magicians, he could not change the dilemma at all.
Magicians have various means emerging in an endless stream, which have a very large bonus to the battle. Only by killing the magicians first can there be a chance to win this battle.
Pirosa's feet suddenly burst out with powerful power, and the speed of his advance was extremely fast. His body left a phantom, which was accompanied by a strong sound barrier.
In just one or two seconds, Pilosa broke through the distance of 600 meters and rushed to the vicinity of Richard and Undine.
Pilosa's move immediately surprised Richard and others. They never expected that Pilosa's speed would be so amazing.
Especially Richard, when he saw this scene, he was stunned and couldn't believe it. He never imagined that a human body of flesh and blood could run at supersonic speeds.
In fact, this is a knight skill created by Pilosa, called Desperate Charge. Because the load on the body is too great, this skill can only last for one minute at most, and it will have strong side effects after one minute.
After using the desperate charge, not only will one-third of the fighting energy be consumed, but the muscles all over the body will also experience severe soreness, especially the muscles in the legs, as if they are being eaten by thousands of ants. Even the human spirit can fall into fatigue.
Precisely because of the sequelae, Pilosa has never used this skill.
Seeing Pilosa rushing over, several melee professionals bravely stood in front. Sylph and Sano, mother and son, have the highest professional level and shoulder the greatest responsibilities.
The two held an enchanted shield in one hand and a high-level elven sword in the other. They blocked Pilosa's attack from the left and the right.
Wilde, Thoros and others stood behind Sylph and Sano. They raised their shields one after another and adopted a strategy of only defending but not attacking. They protected Richard and Undine in the middle and helped the two ninth-level epic knights to block it. attacked many times.
In this battle, if there were not two epic knights, Sylph and Sano, who stood in front, blocked most of the attacks, and shouldered the heaviest responsibility, Richard and the others would not have been able to block Pilosa's ghostly attack. There is a probability of attrition. The two magicians Richard and Undine will also be in danger.
Although the two of them are magicians and martial arts masters, their close combat abilities are not comparable to Pilosa's. Once Pilosa gets close, they may lose their lives in one and a half moves.
For this reason, Sylph and Sano, mother and son, are also fighting desperately to protect their loved ones at this moment.
Especially Sylph, a middle-aged elf who is not far from being a legend, and is also awakening in her own field. Although her speed and reaction are far inferior to Pilosa, her fighting will and fighting experience surpass this person.
Sylph used a lose-lose style several times, which made Pilosara labored to no avail. After all, Sylph really didn't want her life, but Pilosa didn't dare to risk her life.
By the time Pilosa finally made up his mind to capture Sylph even if he was injured, dozens of seconds had passed and the time for the desperate charge was about to run out.
Pilosa's body seemed to be a series of afterimages, suddenly passing through the defense line formed by Sylph and Sano, leaving a shallow blood mark on his chest, and the eighth-level armor on his body also cracked. However, the spear in his hand stabbed into Sylph's chest fiercely, nailing the powerful elf into the soil.
Seeing that Sylph was severely injured, Richard and Undine released the four-ring magic to treat the serious injury, bringing back a large amount of Sylve's vitality, and hanging Sylve's life.
"Thoros, go and rescue the elves quickly."
Among everyone present, except for Richard and Undine, Soros is the weakest in melee combat. Letting him rescue and protect Sylph will free up Sano to play a greater role.
Even if the situation becomes dangerous, Richard still calmly evaluates the pros and cons and issues orders.
Pilosa broke through the defense line formed by Sylph and Sano, and was greeted by two rescued elves. One of these two elves was an eighth-level gold knight, and the other was a seventh-level silver knight. They were reduced to skins. Lothar, the sex slave, was insulted and hated Pilosa to the core. When they saw their enemies coming to kill them, the two elves also adopted a lose-lose strategy and fought Pilosa regardless of their own safety.
In an instant, the two elves launched a violent attack, and several weapons erupted with strong collision sounds. Sparks flew everywhere, accompanied by the light of the burst of fighting spirit. In an instant, the two elves fell to the ground, and Pilosa's injury became more serious.
Richard and Undine saw that the two elves were seriously injured. In order to prevent them from bleeding to death, they once again spent their magic power to release a spell to treat serious injuries for them.
Although three people were seriously injured, the time for Pilosa's desperate charge has been exhausted. He has lost his ghostly speed. Pilosa's threat to everyone has been greatly reduced.
At this moment, Pilosa's eighth-level enchanted armor was damaged, half of his magic power was consumed, and his fighting spirit was even more depleted, with only one-third remaining.
In addition, there were three wounds left on Pilosa's body, the chest injury being the most serious. The wounds were accompanied by the fighting spirit left by Sylph, destroying Pilosa's body. In order to suppress the fighting spirit on the wound and prevent it from invading and damaging the internal organs, Pilosa also needed to mobilize part of the fighting spirit in his body to stay near the wound.
The other two wounds were one on the left abdomen and one on the back, both of which were relatively deep. Although the three wounds were not fatal, they greatly affected Pilosa's condition. Coupled with the side effects of using the desperate charge, at this moment, Pilosa's combat effectiveness was only less than 30%.
When the battle reached this moment, Pilosa's legs felt a sharp stabbing pain, causing him to roar wildly.
Pilosa waved his weapon wildly, but it was difficult to move due to the severe pain in his legs, and he couldn't hit anyone at all.
Thoros had already withdrawn from the battlefield with Sylph and the two injured elves. Only five people, namely Richard, Undine, Sano, Wilde, and Roman, were left besieging Pilosa.
Pirosa lowered his head, exuding deathly aura all over his body, as if brewing a terrible attack, so that the five people did not dare to get too close.
Seeing that Pirosa had difficulty moving, the five people immediately retreated quickly, away from him to avoid being involved in close combat again.
After retreating fifty or sixty meters, the five people stopped, Sano, Wilde, and Roman stood in front, and Richard and Undine behind them were ready to release spells and kill the enemy with long-range attacks.
Soros, who retreated a few hundred meters away, also began to draw his bow and arrow, aiming at Pirosa.
Richard released spells the fastest, and in an instant released a fire dragon, which was seventeen or eighteen meters long and hit Pirosa fiercely. It was the six-ring magic fire dragon spell.
Richard's mental power broke through fifty points, awakening the talent of the flame body. When releasing fire attribute magic, the power increased by 30% out of thin air.
Taking the Fire Dragon Magic released by an ordinary six-ring magician as the standard, the magic released by Richard is 2.6 times more powerful than the standard magic, and its destructive power is a bit stronger than the eight-ring magic.
The fire dragon hit Pilosa fiercely, and the powerful elemental energy poured into Pilosa's body. In an instant, Pilosa seemed to be roasted and let out a shrill roar.
At the same time, the armor-piercing arrow shot by Soros also made a whistling sound. At this moment, Pilosa was in the pain of being eaten by thousands of ants and burned by the fire, and his reaction was much slower than usual.
This arrow was unexpected, and Pilosa had no time to block it. In an instant, the armor-piercing arrow penetrated Pilosa's neck, leaving a small hole as big as a baby's fist.
Even with such a serious injury, Pilosa still did not die.
The vitality of legendary knights is extremely strong. Some legendary knights with special bloodlines can still save their lives even if they lose their heads and damage their hearts. There are also some legendary knights with special bloodlines who have the ability to regenerate broken limbs.
Therefore, as long as Pirosa was not completely dead, everyone did not dare to take it lightly.
Pirosa could no longer make a sound, but he still stubbornly moved forward towards Richard and others. Every step he took was extremely difficult, but he was very determined.
At the last moment of his life, Pirosa finally became the brave and fearless person who did not care about death. But the change in his heart came too late, and Pirosa's fate was doomed.
Seeing that Pirosa was still struggling, Undine also released a powerful seven-ring magic fire storm, and waves of flames wrapped Pirosa, and it took several minutes to completely burn Pirosa to ashes.
