Chapter 569 570. Raid
The main difficulty on the field now is how to prevent these people from asking for help.
Geralt and his party had already come to Cintra at the beginning of the war. It can be said that they have completely experienced the entire war of annihilation in Cintra.
They now also have some understanding of the status of the Nilfgaardian army.
These people are scouts and scouts released by the Nilfgaardian army.
In most cases, they will maintain a team of fifteen people and conduct regular patrols according to the jurisdiction planned by their headquarters.
Ensure that in the event of an accident, at least three additional teams within the range of the sentry arrows can respond in time.
If this sentry arrow cannot leave the battlefield in time and clear the traces of retreat, then we will have to wait for more than forty fully armed Nilfgaardian cavalry to come from behind.
Both Geralt and Gerd have sufficient knowledge of their own abilities.
The scum in front of me have all dismounted and turned into heavy armored infantry just for fun. Even if they can't kill them all, they can still retreat alive.
But if the sentry arrows are sent out, they will have to face more than forty Nilfgaardian cavalry.
“Do you still have the potion with you?”
Geralt walked, Ask Ged.
The lighting conditions are not good now, but even if the demon hunters don't drink [Cat's Eye], their night vision is much better than ordinary people. Therefore, before entering the opponent's visual range, they can also try to save energy by walking and shorten the charging distance.
The demon hunter of the Bear School grinned.
"The potion. Ha, it was all used up when the hard times first began. If you expect me to have the potion, you might as well expect Dandelion to knock one down with a stone."
Geralt does not Shaking his head in disappointment.
This answer is also expected, because all the potions on him were used at the beginning of the war.
At that time, they were affected by the frontline of the battlefield, and the living environment was even more dangerous than now. In order to ensure their survival, the two of them took all the drugs they could.
The rider watching the horse noticed them at this time and immediately took off a spear from the saddle.
The man shouted, and another Nilfgaardian soldier emerged from behind the fence. His belt hung around his neck, with a sword strapped to it, and he was busy buttoning his breeches and repositioning his leather crotch.
Geralt and Gerd are very close.
He could hear the laughter of the men, who were amusing themselves with the girl on the haystack. He took several deep breaths, each breath making him more murderous. He could compose himself, but he didn't want to.
Because he also wants to have some ‘fun’ now.
"Who is it? Stop!" the rider watching the horse shouted, raising the spear in his hand, "What are you doing here?"
Neither of the two demon hunters answered him.
Their two pairs of eyes that could shine in the dark each found their own goals.
"Collapse!"*2
The bowstrings of the two hand crossbows made a sound of ejection.
The crossbow arrow shot from the hand of the Bear School passed right through the eyes of the rider, causing him to wail like a beast. Then he fell uncontrollably from the horse's back, crushing several fence posts near the horse's legs.
He really shouldn't have taken off his helmet for later entertainment.
The crossbow arrow fired from the Wolf School's hand pierced between the legs of the Nilfgaardian soldier who had just drawn his sword.
He still hasn't put on his crotch protector yet.
After receiving this arrow, he was in so much pain that he couldn't even make a sound. He could only gasp for breath, covering his lower body and curling up on the ground, his eyeballs bulging like a dead fish.
Before the others could recover and pick up their weapons, the demon hunter had already rushed into their midst.
Gerd's armor was far more reliable than Geralt's, so he took the lead, while Geralt took care of him behind him.
The Bear School steel sword drew a perfect arc in mid-air, and then like a whip, it hit the surrounding Nilfgaardian soldiers.
For ordinary people, cutting armor with a long sword can only interfere with it, but cannot effectively kill. But for demon hunters of the Bear School who are proficient in slashing, this is something they can do.
The torso and limbs could not block the edge of the steel sword at all. Blood splashed on Gede's face, but he had no time to wipe it away. The fallen corpses and gushing plasma made these Nilfgaardian soldiers fully realize how different the two people who rushed into them were.
One soldier's trousers were still wrapped around his knees. Before he could lift them up, he was hit by a blow to his carotid artery. He collapsed on his back, his unsatisfied dick dangling comically.
This is Geralt's sword, because when Gerd cuts at this position, he usually cuts off the person's head directly.
The other soldier stripped naked and covered his head with his hands, but his wrists were cut off by the Bear School steel sword.
This is because the armor is taken off too quickly, which leads to fear and loss of consciousness on the battlefield due to lack of protection.
He actually felt that the flesh and bones of his wrist could block the steel.
The combined raid by Gerd and Geralt was indeed effective.
They left at least ten enemies lying on the ground bleeding in the first round of contact!
But the training and quality of the Nilfgaardian soldiers did not allow the two demon hunters to take advantage of the surprise attack for long.
“Ding!”
A crossbow arrow flew out from the darkness like a poisonous snake, and was about to bite Gede’s armpit!
Thanks to a layer of golden magic shield, which shattered while blocking the crossbow arrows, the crossbow arrows were not allowed to penetrate through the weak points of the armor.
But even though he was blocked, Gede, who was originally fierce and violent, had a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.
If you are shot into the armpit by a crossbow arrow, it is basically hopeless without magic potion.
But the dangerous situation is not over yet.
"Gede! Watch your step!"
Geralt's cat eyes glanced at the arrow blocked by [Queen's Seal] on the ground, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he reminded loudly.
Gede didn't even think about it, and immediately used the toe of one foot as the axis, turned sideways, and opened a step away.
The next moment, there was an explosion!
It was like an extra-large firecracker exploded near Gede's feet. The metal shards rubbed against the greaves of Gede's calf, creating a shower of sparks.
That crossbow arrow is an explosive crossbow arrow!
This is an alchemy product. While it has good effects, it also has a production cost that is completely different from ordinary crossbow arrows.
In the northern army, you would never expect to see such high-end goods among the equipment distributed. This is what the soldiers can buy from the quartermaster with their own money.
But in the Nilfgaardian army, this is the standard equipment issued.
"Crossbowman with special arrows!"
Ged's leg affected by the explosion was temporarily numb, and he immediately shouted to Geralt.
"He must also be holding a whistle arrow! Go and kill him!"
Geralt's acuity on the battlefield is no worse than Gerd. Before the witcher of the Bear School shouted, he had already It rushed in one direction.
But in Gerd's widened eyes, he was shocked to find
When Geralt faced a clumsy enemy, he did not cleanly cut through the weak points of the opponent's armor. cut in.
The sound of the blade cutting into the weak spot of the armor is different from the sound of the sword hitting it.
Geralt's face suddenly turned ugly.
In order to remind Gede, he hastily exchanged swords with the enemy, and then began to charge towards the crossbowman.
But now it seems that his hasty sword attack just now knocked the blade of the sword in his hand crooked!
At the same time, a sharp, highly recognizable explosion suddenly exploded under the frowning gazes of Geralt and Gerd!
They did not stop the sentry arrow.
