Chapter 1031: Losing Cavalry Makes It Hard to Defend Against the Enemy
When Xun Chilong fell, Su Kuo had no choice but to get off the saddle, but he did not retreat. Instead, he held the hammer in one hand to prepare for Chen Chuan's attack, and at the same time, he also wanted to buy some time for Xun Chilong to recover.
He knew very well that his horse had tenacious vitality. With just a little time and a few efforts, he would be able to stand up again.
Chen Chuan took a step and instantly came in front of Su Kuo, slashing with his sword. Su Kuo raised his hammer to block. Although he was prepared for the impact of the light, the power of the sword was too strong. Amidst the scattered light and flames, the whole person was chopped away by the sword, and a thunderous explosion was heard in the air.
Chen Chuan was about to catch up, but at this moment, Xun Chilong, who had already fallen to the ground, suddenly struggled up again, and ignoring the blood gushing from his neck, stepped towards his back with his hooves.
This super-large horse was so powerful that it could be regarded as a strong fighter. Chen Chuan did not ignore it. He turned sideways, raised his arm, and wrapped it around the falling thick horse hoof. With a grabbing force, the spiritual light on the horse's body was instantly extinguished. He twisted his body and swung it outward, and with a loud bang, he fell sideways to the ground.
The horse was still struggling, so he stepped forward and hit it with his fist. There was a loud bang, and the horse's head sank down, creating a big hole in the ground. The huge horse's body swung up because of it. Then he raised his knife and stabbed it down at its head, instantly breaking the remaining spiritual fire. The force went straight through the skull, and the four hooves of the Smoked Red Dragon twitched and struggled. As more blood spread out, it finally stopped moving.
On the other side, Su Kuo was struck far away by the force. He was about to stabilize his body, but he suddenly felt something. He swung his hammer and smashed the two flying objects in the air. It turned out that Zarnik and his two men threw two special spears at him.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of action does not pose any threat to him, and it does not matter if he takes it head-on, as it will not cause any harm to him.
But under the push of Chen Chuan's power, he was trying to adjust himself, wanting to eliminate this force as soon as possible and then turn back, maybe to rescue Xun Chilong. But now his balance was broken, which prevented him from doing so. Also, because of an action he made, his center of gravity shifted, and finally he took a few steps to the side. As a result, he completely lost the opportunity to rescue his mount.
At this moment, he looked up and saw the figure of his beloved horse falling in the dust, and couldn't help but sigh. At this moment, strands of alien tissue grew out of his broken arm, and soon twisted into one, becoming a limb like an arm. He held the long hammer in front of him with both hands, and at the same time, he took a deep breath, and the deep red flames outside his body suddenly rose.
Chen Chuan walked over slowly, holding a long sword. To him, the opponent's unity between man and horse had been broken, and both their speed and strength had dropped to a lower level.
If there is any chance of a comeback, it would be those special powers.
However, this person still refuses to use his unusual appearance until now. It is almost certain that his unusual appearance is most likely related to some kind of unusual power, which is probably a passive ability based on various situations of the enemy.
He didn't want to guess what it was specifically. Just like what he had thought just now, he didn't need to follow the enemy's rhythm and should just do what he had to do.
After walking a few steps, his body suddenly flashed, and when he appeared again, he was already close to Su Kuo, with a blade of light slashing down.
The latter was startled and tried to block with his hammer. However, the blow looked swift, but it was not strong, but soft. The front part of the long sword came down and hit and pushed on his hammer. Suddenly, an irresistible force surged, and Su Kuo could not stop and retreated again.
He is huge in size, almost three times the size of Chen Chuan, and it seems that there is no comparison between them. However, when the two confront each other head-on, Su Kuo is the weaker one. This strong contrast makes people feel extremely contradictory.
Chen Chuan swung his sword and walked forward with calm steps.
Su Kuo had just used the technique of explosive physical strength, but the fact proved that even though his physical fitness had improved a lot, he was still unable to stop his opponent, but at least he was not without the ability to fight back.
He was experienced in combat and knew that he could not retreat at this time. The more he retreated, the easier it would be for him to be knocked down by his opponent. Instead, he had to take the initiative to attack to have a chance. He pushed off the ground, and when the ground cracked, he rushed forward with a burst of scarlet flames, raised his long hammer high and smashed it down at Chen Chuan.
Chen Chuan watched him coming, paused for a moment, raised his hand to block the falling hammer steadily, and a circle of air waves exploded under his feet, rolling outward. He then pushed the knife to the side, and Su Kuo actually staggered to the side.
Under absolute power, all skills and attacks become useless.
Su Kuo's center of gravity shifted, and he immediately realized that something was wrong. He immediately activated his special power, and his huge body seemed to have lost weight, and he dodged several subsequent sword lights in succession.
Finally, he seized the opportunity and blocked it, but was inevitably repelled again. However, after a distance, he paused, and he retreated into a secret ceremony.
As the commander, he was extremely familiar with every part of the battlefield. This was a place he had been eyeing for a long time. Although it was impossible to stop Chen Chuan, this was originally set up to guard against surprise attacks by fighters, and it could give him a chance to breathe.
At this time, his chest kept rising and falling, trying to recover as much as possible.
In fact, it was not just Chen Chuan. He could feel that since the war began, the eyes of those Dashun fighters had been on him. This was what made him most uncomfortable.
If Chen Chuan hadn't been there, he wouldn't have had to worry about it. But with Chen Chuan as a huge threat, he needed to deal with it wholeheartedly. How could he spare more attention and energy for other things? But he couldn't ignore them completely. Even if those people were just watching him from the side, he would feel uneasy. He could only try his best to overcome it.
Chen Chuan walked to the front of the secret ceremony and observed it. This secret ceremony was very common. Its purpose was to prevent fighters from breaking into the military formation and slaughtering soldiers at will. Although it was not difficult to destroy it, it could indeed interrupt the rhythm of his attack.
He swung his sword outward, and it was as if something tangible was torn apart. There was a hissing sound, and the air outside also rolled along, and the stone plates buried in the ground around him cracked.
Su Kuo was well prepared inside. When the secret ceremony was destroyed, he was about to attack, but when he looked up, he saw Chen Chuan suddenly appear at the same level as his own, his deep and calm eyes staring at him.
His heart beat wildly, and with a loud shout, the deep red spiritual flames all over his body suddenly burst out regardless of everything.
Chen Chuan's figure disappeared in an instant, and when he reappeared, he was already standing at the far end, looking coldly at the front. With a bang, a deep red flame rushed into the sky where Su Kuo was standing, and the ground beneath his feet rumbled and shook.
The light quickly subsided, and at the moment when the breath subsided, he took another step and instantly rushed through the hot air and came close to Su Kuo. Now he was at the moment of slowing down after the spiritual power exploded, and had almost no resistance.
Su Kuo shouldn't have made this mistake, but the threat posed by Chen Chuan just now was too great, forcing him to burst out with all his strength and not be able to worry about anything else.
The embroidered messenger who was watching saw something was wrong and held a long needle, wanting to help. However, at this moment, Mr. Zhuan turned his head and looked directly at her. The mask on his face flashed with light, which made her pause.
Not only that, Zarnik and the other man roared wildly at this moment, each picked up the weapon in their hands and rushed down the hillside. A strong blood-red flame burst out from both of them. They gradually grew bigger while running, and instantly grew to more than 20 meters. They violently knocked away and trampled on everything in the way in front of them. Looking at the direction, they were coming towards the Embroidered Messenger and Gai Shuhe.
They didn't take action just now because everyone could maintain a deterrent effect on Su Kuo and divert some of his attention. Now that Chen Chuan has gained the advantage, there is no need to wait any longer.
Neither the Embroidered Envoy nor Gai Shuhe intended to fight head-on, and retreated without hesitation. In the situation where they were outnumbered, they could only rely on the secret instruments in the rear to assist them in the battle. As for the troops, they had no time to care about them now, and the fighters would not waste their limited strength on these pawns.
On the other side, Chen Chuan slashed with a knife, and Su Kuo had no room to dodge at all. However, the weapon bag worn on his waist suddenly exploded at this time, and a green light drilled towards the former's eyes.
Chen Chuan saw that this was a strange insect with slender hooked legs, but it was attached with the spiritual power of a god-like fighter, so he did not underestimate this thing. He turned the folding knife and chopped it up in mid-air.
Su Kuo got a chance to catch his breath and took a step back, not to dodge, but to create distance for his attack. At this moment, he raised the long hammer with both hands and smashed it down at Chen Chuan with all his strength.
The body of Chen Chuan's carving knife was outside and he had no time to turn around, so he stretched out his hand to block it. With a bang, a circle of air waves exploded, and he actually blocked the sledgehammer with his bare hands. Without waiting for the opponent to press down, he pushed it upwards. Su Kuo showed his superb strength skills at this time. He turned the hammer body over with this force, and then used his backhand to poke the tip of the hammer tail towards him.
At this moment, Chen Chuan pulled back the blade, blocked it with his backhand, and deflected it. Su Kuo held both ends of the hammer and turned around to smash it horizontally. Although this step was connected and coherent, and the use of force was impeccable, from Chen Chuan's point of view, it was still a beat too late.
He tapped his toes, and a wave of air exploded under his feet. In a flash, he was already above Su Kuo's body. As he turned in the air, he stabbed a knife into the latter's neck, and most of the blade was instantly penetrated!
Su Kuo froze in his tracks. Seeing this, Gai Shuhe, who was retreating, exclaimed, "General!"
