Chapter 29: On the Cliff



It was impossible for him to subdue such a large python by himself, but after all, Walls was the commander of thousands of troops, so he calmed himself down immediately.

Wals observed the python's every move. Wals felt that he would not be able to find the sword unless he killed the python. At the same time, the python was also observing Wals. He had lived here since he was a child. There was a small river here that led directly to the outside. here, and he had never seen such a creature. If you really want to count, the last time he saw such a creature was several years ago. This big python spit out its tongue. His instinct told him that the person in front of him was not easy to deal with. If it was a smaller prey, this python might eat the prey in front of him, but now it seems that the python does not want to kill this prey.

But this prey did not understand his good intentions at all. Wales approached the python with the sword in his hand. All Wales did now was to kill the python. After all, there was a dangerous existence in this valley, which was very dangerous for his search for the sword.

The python seemed a little angry. A weak prey actually dared to provoke it. It originally wanted to let it go, but now it seems that it has to kill this prey no matter what.

Oh, by the way, if I don't kill this prey in front of me, this hiding place will be occupied by him.

The python suddenly woke up, and its eyes were fixed on Wales. It was obvious that it had made up its mind to kill Wales.

Therefore, the two sides faced off. Wals held his long sword in his hand, while the python spit out its tongue. The python was not poisonous. He relied on his huge body to tire the man to death, and then swallowed the prey in one gulp. His mouth could swallow prey several times larger than it. This was an important reason why he could dominate this valley.

Wals knew what a powerful enemy he was facing, but he needed to find the sword quickly and rush up, otherwise he could only sit and wait for death.

Something unimaginable happened. Wals suddenly exerted force with his feet, and a shadow suddenly appeared in front of the python.

Wals's sword suddenly hit the python's body. A powerful rebound force directly shook Wals' arm. Wals suddenly found that the python's skin was indestructible, and his own scene only left a thin mark on his skin.

However, this was not Wals's full-strength attack. If this was Wals's full-strength attack, it might have left a deeper mark. However, just leaving a mark on the python's skin is nothing at all. It must cause substantial casualties.

If this python bleeds, then Wals' chances of winning will be greatly increased. After all, it is easy to die of exhaustion while fighting while bleeding. Wals thought about it and swung his sword again to stab the python. This time, Wals did not chop his sword at the python, but aimed the tip of the sword at the python.

Since chopping doesn't work, then try stabbing directly. This time, the python will never let Wals sneak attack again. If Wals was lucky in the last attack, the python will never let Wals hurt him again. Ever since the moment when the filthy thing hurt him, the python has become impatient, with anger in his eyes. Just like humans have anger, the python also has its own emotions. Now he wants to kill this daring guy and eat him alive.

The python shook its body, and it drew an arc, just avoiding Wals's sword. Wals's sword only slightly scratched the surface of the python.

No substantial damage was caused, which meant that his sneak attack just now did not succeed. Walls knew that if his attack failed, the python would attack him again.

Therefore, Walls did not hesitate. In the next second, Walls used his feet to move away from the python again. However, the net snake is a python after all. Its strength and speed are not comparable to those of ordinary humans. Even though Walls is not an ordinary person, his speed and strength are still inferior to those of the python. Walls quickened his pace, but all this was in vain. The python's flexible body was like a whip, and the python's tail suddenly swung over and hit Walls' chest directly.

Wals flew away suddenly, blood surging in his chest. Wals only felt a sticky liquid coming up in his mouth. He opened his mouth and a stream of blood gushed out.

This python has a flexible body. Its head attack failed, but its tail was still flexible. Walls felt a deep chill on his back, so he only focused his attention on his back but ignored the front. This was really laughable.

Walter's original intention was to injure the python, but now this plan failed and he was injured by the python instead. This was really fate. However, Walter still pulled himself together and picked up his sword to fight the python to the death. His companions were still fighting for him on the cliff, so how could he fall down at this moment?

Wals wiped the blood from his mouth with his arm, and then locked his eyes on the python in front of him. The python was also a hunter with rich combat experience in the mountains and forests. He had hunted many animals. In order to satisfy his huge body, he had tried to capture all kinds of animals in this forest. However, this mountain range was sparsely populated and there were no humans. He rarely saw humans. surprised. However, for the python, an animal with not very high intelligence, he still wanted to kill the prey in front of him as soon as possible.

These boring emotions are completely unnecessary for a wild beast. The python is also worried that Walls will suddenly appear in front of it again like last time. This move is really scary. Even the grizzly bears in the mountains do not have such a fast speed. But think about it carefully, how could such a huge animal have such a fast speed.

It was hard to imagine that a python would have so many thoughts. For Wals, he only had one thought, which was to kill the python in front of him. That was how the second round of the contest began. This time Wals took the initiative again.

Therefore, the python's head suddenly dodged, and then its whole body shook. Walsh's attack range gradually narrowed. Just when Walsh reached the front of the python, the python was already looking at Walsh with extreme vigilance.

Walsh finally stabbed out with his sword. The sword was stabbed very quickly. Because of its huge size, the python could not dodge for a while. Walsh's sword stabbed straight into the abdomen of the python, and a small drop of blood flowed out. of the python. If this python dared to open its mouth to swallow him, his sword would cut the python in half. Walsh knew that his speed was not as fast as this python, so he did not dodge, but pointed his sword at the opponent.

The python seemed to have some intelligence. It did not swallow Wals' entire body directly. Instead, it turned its tongue and pounced directly on Wals' legs. This put Wals in a difficult position. He knew that his sword was pointing straight in front of him, and he had no defense against his legs. If the python's bloody mouth pounced directly on his body, his legs would be injured. Once his legs were injured, he would be a fat sheep to be slaughtered.

"This is a really difficult snake to deal with."

Wals knew that if he didn't run away now, his leg might be crippled. He moved his feet again and put down his sword to protect his legs. The python had rich experience. When he saw the sword gradually lowered, he also gradually slowed down. In the end, Wals successfully escaped and the python didn't bite Wals. As a result, Wals was attacked by the python's tail, but Wals successfully stabbed the python. Both sides suffered a certain degree of damage.

However, according to the current situation, Wals is still at a disadvantage. After all, my top priority now is to quickly kill the python in front of me and then find the sword. My companions can't hold on for long.

In the third round, Wals launched an attack again. This time, Wals attacked the belly of a python. The python's eyes were always staring at Wals. The belly of the python was the softest part, and it was also where its heart was. If he could pierce his heart and cause fatal damage to the python, the python was not so easy to be killed. His snake body was shaking, and he crawled on the ground very fast. Wals didn't hit the python's body for a while, and the python's tail swept over him again.

The python knew that if it opened its mouth to attack Volk, then Volk's attack would cause fatal damage to him, and the final result would only result in a lose-lose situation. The python did not want to fight to the death, so it had to use its tail to attack Volk. Since the last time it attacked Volk, its tail seemed to have become extremely flexible and was specially used to attack Volk.

The clever Walls naturally noticed this. His eyes rolled and a clever plan came to his mind.

The snake's tail hit Wals directly, and Wals fell to the ground and spat out blood, and the long sword also slipped out of his hand. The python was naturally overjoyed to see this, and slowly moved over with its tongue spitting out. When it found that the prey was lying there motionless, the python thought that the prey was dead, and suddenly opened its bloody mouth, staring at Wals. Wals was pretending to be dead. Just when the python suddenly wanted to open its bloody mouth to swallow Wals, Wals's hand suddenly grabbed the long sword, and then stabbed the python's head, hitting the python's body exactly.

Wals' sword pierced into the python's mouth, and the python suddenly realized its mistake, but it was too late. For Wals, he had already won, and the python was seriously injured and could not kill itself no matter what.

Wals slowly drew out his sword, the python's fate was over.

Seeing the dying python, Wals immediately set out to find the sword. This was the only threat in this valley, and now the python was dead.

But Walls did not relax his vigilance. For Walls, the most important thing now was to continue looking for the sword.

"Walles, have you ever thought that this python can live here, but there is no living thing here? Tell me how it survives?" Lorimer suddenly spoke in Walles' heart, but Walles did not have the time to pay attention to Lorimer.

Everything in front of him showed that it was the right decision for him to come here. It was a pile of bones, and there happened to be a sword next to it.

It was simply ecstatic, and this was good news for Walter.

"Is it him? Is it that sword?"

Wales rushed to the skeleton and picked up the sword, which remained in the scabbard forever. When Wales slowly pulled the sword out, the well-preserved sword reappeared in the world again.

He reflected a dazzling luster under the sunlight, and Walls knew that this was the Cliff Blade.

From the appearance, this sword seems to be no different from an ordinary sword. It is also very different from the legendary evil sword Tyrant Blood of Kadoc. The evil sword Tyrant Blood is very large, and is a giant sword that is twice as powerful as a greatsword.

Walls did not underestimate the sword because of its appearance. A sword that had not decayed for such a long time was definitely not an ordinary sword.

"I say, did you listen to what I just said? This is a matter of your life." Lorimer said again.

Ever since Wals saw the sword, he no longer paid any attention to Lorimer, which made Lorimer extremely unhappy. Now was an extremely dangerous moment. Needless to say, the soldiers of the Rhodok Kingdom on the cliff had cut off their retreat, which meant that Wals no longer had much hope of killing his way through. However, this python lived in the valley, which meant that there must be a way out. This valley was bare and there was no living thing. It was impossible for a python to just sit here and wait for pie to fall from the sky. It must have another way out.

Now, Lorimer asked Wals to find such a way out. As long as he found a way out, the eight people would be saved. But if he couldn't find a way out, would he have to rely on the strength of only eight people to fight against more than a hundred enemy soldiers? There is no doubt that even if the eight people killed all the more than a hundred soldiers, they would definitely lose one or two companions, which was simply not worth the loss.

Therefore, for Lorimer, if he could find a way out for the python, he could successfully rescue all eight people. If he could not find a way out, Lorimer had already prepared for the worst.

"Even if we can't find a way out, we have to find a place to bury our bodies. Do you want to die without a burial place?" Lorimer said to Walls with more sarcasm. Walls certainly understood the meaning of Lorimer's words. This sentence was obviously telling him to find a way out quickly, a way that could save his life.

Wals bowed to the corpse, showing respect to the swordsmith. He took his sword, so of course he had to thank him. This was also basic courtesy.

Then Walls began to look for a way out. This python definitely couldn't live here alone. It must have a way to enter and exit this valley. Judging from the size of the python, it could enter and exit a valley smoothly. An adult's size could definitely pass through the path that the python had walked.

Sure enough, when Wals calmed down and looked for a way out, he heard the sound of flowing water. Following the sound, Wals soon found a lake.

"That python must be living here. I think there must be an undercurrent under this lake. The python must be able to leave this valley through this undercurrent."

Walls pointed to the lake.

"Okay, this lake is a treasure land. Let the seven of them come down first. It is obviously an impossible task for the seven of them to deal with the Rhodok army on the cliff. It is better to let them come down first. With this lake and the python, we should be able to hold on here for a few days. When the Rhodok soldiers think we are all dead, we can leave this valley. If we are lucky, we may be able to find a way out of this valley under this lake, or the python may have found a way out somewhere else. These are all possible things, but the most urgent thing is to let them come to this valley as soon as possible. The Rhodok army is large in number, and we will never be able to defeat them. It is better to let them come down and hide first."

Lorimer methodically analyzed the situation at hand.

Wales immediately understood Lorimer's idea. He immediately returned to his original place, put down his sword and all his weapons, and began to climb the rope with his bare hands. Everything he did now was to notify his companions to come down quickly.

On the cliff, the seven people who had been holding on could no longer hold on. After a rain of arrows, Bestur and Desevi were injured. They were professional archers and were not as good as the warriors in using shields, so they were hit by many arrows. But this was just the beginning. Count Talba still hoped to capture them alive, so he sent out his infantry to consume their strength.

A man of insight is a wise man. Count Talba also wants to have such powerful generals as his subordinates. If he can get a few of these warriors in front of him, the combat effectiveness of his army will be greatly enhanced. Therefore, Count Erba still hopes to capture them.

Count Talba did not kill them, but sent out his infantry. These infantry could only rely on numbers to win against these seven people. Some of the soldiers had already died on the battlefield. Although these seven people were more or less injured after a hail of arrows, it did not mean that they gave up the fight.

Walls had already climbed halfway up the cliff, and he threw a stone in his hand over the cliff with force.
