Chapter 32 Everything is in vain

Every general-level warrior is a powerful being.

A warrior at the general level can turn the tide of a battle on a battlefield with thousands of troops, not to mention the killing situation in front of him.

But everyone seems to have overlooked why Keynes did not reveal his true strength until now?

Keynes stood in the sky, his blood-red eyes had regained their clarity. In addition to murderous intent, there was more sadness and nostalgia in his eyes.

Keynes waved his hand casually, and an almost invisible sword energy flew out from the giant sword in both hands.

The sword energy passed by, and the seventh-level ice magician who was about to launch a fatal blow to Adeline did not have time to react, and his body suddenly separated from the middle.

A powerful seventh-level magician cannot withstand the power of a sword from a warrior-level warrior.

Keynes swung the big sword in his hand continuously, and three sword energy flew out one after another. Each sword energy has a different direction. The sword energy is directed at the leader of the black-clothed killers, the killers in front of Ilya, and the killers in front of the mercenary team.

After seeing the tragic situation of the ice magician before, when Keynes swung his sword again, the men in black who were struck by the sword energy all made dodge or block movements.

However, the huge gap in ranks made the black-clothed killer's dodge futile, and his body was chopped into two pieces as soon as he moved.

Only the killer leader had time to tear open a magic scroll, and a three-meter-tall golden-armored giant suddenly stood in front of the killer leader.

The eighth-level metal magic "Golden Guardian"!

Killers are much richer than mercenaries. As a top-level ninth-level killer, there are always some ways to save one's life.

But the eighth-level gold magic could only block Cairns' blow. With a crisp sound, the golden-armored giant was cut into pieces.

After failing to hit the target, Keynes swooped in the air and landed in front of the killer leader, slashing his head with a dazzling white light.

The killer leader began to fly back when the golden-armored giant was crushed, and his figure even began to become illusory, but when the sword was actually struck, he still did not completely dodge.

The sword light flashed, and an entire arm flew out.

The moment the sword light passed by, there was no blood even gushing out of the neat, smooth wound.

After the arm flew out, blood spurted out.

The blow was not fully effective, and Keynes followed up with another sword. The light of the sword was like a straight spear, piercing the killer leader's front heart.

After being seriously injured, the killer leader could not avoid the sword no matter what. The moment the sword light pierced out, he closed his eyes unwillingly.

That moment was so long, and he didn't wait for the sword energy to pierce his chest.

The killer leader opened his eyes and was shocked to find Keynes half-kneeling on the ground. The giant sword in his hand still maintained the thrusting posture, but the tip of the sword hung weakly on the ground. The hand holding the sword was shaking violently.

Keynes's sword failed to penetrate completely.

Keynes lowered his head, his face was ashen, blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth, and there was no trace of luster in his eyes.

The majestic appearance of the warrior who had just dominated the world's warriors was gone in an instant, and Keynes in front of him was clearly exhausted.

The killer leader reacted to his shock in an instant. This surprise of escaping from death even made him lose his cool. He couldn't help laughing loudly: "It turns out you are just having a flashback!"

"Someone will kill you for me..." Keynes murmured in a positive and weak voice.

"Even if you can't see it one day, you will die in my hands first today." The killer leader used his fighting spirit to forcefully stop the bleeding in his left arm and slowly walked towards Keynes.

Keynes's head suddenly raised, a ray of light burst out from his eyes, and the sword in his hand was thrown out while spinning.

The killer leader was so frightened that he quickly retreated again.

"Escape!" Keynes roared, then fell to the ground and no longer breathed.

However, the direction the big sword slashed was not the killer leader, but the black-clothed killer opposite the mercenary.

The rotating sword carried the last trace of fighting spirit in Keynes's body, and easily cut off the two black-clothed killers who were caught off guard. Finally, it was stuck diagonally on the ground. The sword was still shaking, as if it was wailing for its owner.

Cairns knew that he could not kill the killer leader, but he had to use up his last bit of life force to fight for a chance of survival for the mercenary group.

In addition to the killer leader, there were seven or eight black-clad killers still alive. Keynes slashed them with his sword, and the mercenaries gained a little more vitality.

"Revenge the leader!"

"I will fight with you!"

"Kill!"

What Keynes didn't expect was that not a single mercenary took the opportunity to escape to the canyon. They rushed towards the remaining killers like crazy.

Then one by one they fell under the killer's sword, or dragged the killer to death together...

These cold-blooded killers may never understand the seemingly stupid behavior of the hot-blooded mercenaries!

Arthur walked over and picked up the giant sword that was stuck on the ground. The sword was almost as tall as Arthur. He dragged the sword hard towards the leader of the black-clad killers.

Adeline stood up unsteadily and walked towards Cairns' body.

The killer leader walked past Adeline and swung his sword.

Adeline staggered a few steps forward, fell forward, and fell beside Keynes.

When the killer leader walked past the elf, the half-kneeling elf raised his head proudly, "Don't touch me with your dirty hands!"

Ilya turned his head and took one last look at Keynes and Adeline lying side by side on the ground, and stabbed his chest with the exquisite dagger in his hand.

In the end, Keynes failed to give the mercenary group any hope. Each of the passionate warriors turned into cold corpses. Only the young man dragging the sword had to complete his final mission.

The leader of the killer waved his hand, stopping the black-clothed killer's sword from stabbing Arthur, and let him walk towards him.

The killer leader tilted his head and looked at the young man dragging the giant sword in front of him with interest. It was strange that the mercenary group actually brought a boy who was half his age.

However, it doesn't matter, there are no young or old on the road to hell, and the killer will never leave him alive just because he is a child.

"Boy, this sword is too big for you!"

"Captain Keynes said someone will kill you for him!"

The killer leader suddenly felt that this kid was very interesting, and it was a pity to let him die so quickly, "Is it you? You must have the strength to lift the sword first!"

Arthur didn't speak, and jumped up high. The giant sword in his hand drew a beautiful arc, and volleyed towards the killer leader's face.

A faint red light glowed on the sword, as red as flames!

Unknowingly, Arthur made a breakthrough in the battle, and his fighting spirit was able to cling to the weapon.

The killer leader let out a light sigh, "With the fiery red fighting spirit, it seems that you are still a little guy with potential."

There was a crisp sound, and the black dagger easily blocked Arthur's full-strength attack.

"But you're still far from it!"

Arthur, who was still in the air, let go and allowed the giant sword to be bounced away. He waved his free hand forward, and a fireball suddenly appeared and hit the mask of the killer leader.

The killer leader immediately let out a scream.

Although the leather mask protected his face, his eyes, nostrils and mouth were exposed. His face was hit by a fireball at close range and was severely burned by the fire.

Although the killer leader could not see for the moment, he still heard the sound and stabbed Arthur's position with his sword, and a sword energy flew out.

Arthur activated the "Wind Technique" of the enchanted leather boots under his feet, and his body swayed out.

The expected sword strike actually missed, and the killer leader let out a hysterical roar, "Catch him, I'm going to skin him alive!"

Looking at the three killers in black surrounding him, Arthur knew that he no longer had any hope.

Arthur grabbed the giant sword on the ground, took a few steps back, then turned around and without hesitation jumped into the rushing Naidoo River behind him...
