Chapter 170: Fighting at Night (Part 4)



When Livia arrived, what he saw was Natalia, with cracks all over her light armor and disheveled hair, squatting on the ground, holding on to her sword and barely not falling down.

This made Livia's face change and his eyes became serious. He knew that Natalia's extraordinary power, that is, the power of seals, was much higher than his, and her physique was not inferior to his.

But even she, who is so powerful, has become like this. How strong must her enemy be?

He quickly scanned the battlefield in front of him and found that there were nearly twenty corpses lying around Natalia, many of which were still burning, just like the bandits he had set on fire with his Igni Sign. Only then did he realize that she was ambushed and besieged.

It seems that those burning corpses and ground were caused by her being forced to not expend a lot of strength. He thought secretly as he looked at the obviously charred ground next to Natalia and the several burning corpses next to it.

Then Livia's eyes swept over the seven bandits surrounding her and the man in dark green clothes opposite her. This...

Are these the remaining enemies?

Finally, his eyes fell on the man in dark green clothes, who was also looking at him.

It seemed that it had noticed his arrival.

Livia quickly jumped down from the steep cliff, drew his steel sword, forced back a bandit who was blocking his way around Natalia, and came to Natalia's side.

Swish!

A red light suddenly slashed towards him, huh?

Natalia seemed to be blood-thirsty. As soon as Livia approached, she swung her sword and slashed at her. There was even some power in the sword, and a little spark appeared on the blade.

Livia did not take the attack head-on, but quickly stepped back two steps to avoid the sword. He did not want to take the attack head-on and waste his remaining half of his physical strength and power.

"Natalia!

It’s me!

After he dodged the sword, he saw Natalia suddenly stand up and seemed to want to chase him, so he shouted hurriedly.

Hearing his words, Natalia stopped, raised her head and looked at him with her eyes mostly hidden by her messy hair, then put down her sword.

Seeing the bloodshot eyes, Livia became nervous. He was relieved when he saw that she recognized him and put down the sword. He really thought that she had gone crazy and lost her mind.

If he is really going crazy and can't even recognize his teammate, then what's the point of fighting!

He just ran away, otherwise how could he fight?

Although the success rate of escape is not high, it is better than fighting alone and always having to be on guard against your "teammates" who may stab you.

"Have you solved it over there?"

Natalia opened her mouth and spoke in an extremely hoarse voice.

Livia nodded at her while being on guard against the bandits who surrounded him. "Although I was almost killed by that guy, I did get rid of him and the other bandits."

Hearing his answer, Natalia nodded. Although she didn't understand what the word "counterattack" meant, she understood that he had taken care of the extraordinary people and bandits in the north.

"You can actually run away, after you deal with that side."

Natalia then noticed the wounds all over his body and could tell that he was not in a good condition. She was silent for a moment and spoke in a low voice.

Livia shrugged as she watched the bandits gradually approaching her. "I'm really at a loss. I lost a magic item, a potion, and the leather armor I was wearing to fight that guy."

Although it was a joke, it was indeed what he really thought.

This time it’s a huge loss.

If he didn't try his best to complete the task, get the reward and ask for some compensation, he would really be back to the time before liberation overnight.

Natalia understood the meaning of his words and a smile appeared on her pale face.

"oh?

You killed Rock?"

Edmund, who was standing beside Livia, naturally heard the conversation between them. He frowned and looked at Livia and asked.

While asking, he looked at Livia carefully, and indeed felt Rock's unique scent of plants from the wounds all over his body.

Rock...

That guy, is he really dead?

Thinking of this, Edmund's face darkened. Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with this person who was sent here to assist but was actually more of a surveillance and supervision person, after all, they had worked together for more than a year and they still had some feelings for each other.

At least he couldn't accept that someone killed that guy Rock and then talked about it in front of him.

Livia glanced at the man with an increasingly unfriendly expression, who should be the leader of the bandits, and did not answer.

Seeing that he seemed to agree, a chain made of steel rings with sharp iron spikes hung from the sleeve of Edmund's right hand.

“A spiked chain?

!”

Natalia exclaimed in surprise.

Spiked chain?

What is that?

Livia looked at the chain with sharp iron spikes with some confusion. It was the first time he heard of and saw such a thing. Could it be used as a weapon?

Natalia's face looked a little solemn. It was the first time for her to see someone use a spiked chain, an item used in prison to interrogate and punish prisoners, as a weapon.

“This is from the prison…

Instrument of torture…” Listening to her explanation, Livia carefully looked at the subway chain hanging from Edmund’s sleeve, which indeed looked like an instrument of torture.

"Kill them."

Without thinking of using his men to exhaust the other side, Edmund gave the order and rushed towards Livia and Natalia.

Seeing him give the order and rush over, Livia and Natalia quickly took alert and held their weapons tightly.

Ping!

Ping!

Before Edmund could rush to them and attack, the surrounding bandits had already approached and raised their weapons to attack them.

But no matter whether it was Livia or Natalia, even in their current bad condition, none of them would worry about these bandits. If Natalia had not spent some time to be alert to Edmund who was watching from the side, she would not have ended up in such a miserable state under their siege.

After all, if Edmund hadn't been there, she could have easily broken out and killed these bandits one by one using the kite-flying method.

[Task 2: Kill 3 elite bandits.

Current: 1/3.

】Seeing the number of completed tasks jump up, Livia turned around and slit the throat of the one who blocked Natalia.

The number instantly jumped to two.

But at this time, before Livia could take action again to complete Task 2, Edmund had already arrived in front of her.

The silver-white thorny chain like a venomous snake flew up and down in his hand, making Livia and Natalia feel a chill running up their spines.

You have to know that this kind of thing can be used as a weapon and used to such an extent, which is more difficult than a sword. It is not easy to use this thing like a poisonous snake to swim in the air. The opponent's strength can be seen just from this move.

Ping!

Click!

Natalia took the lead in swinging her sword to block. An illusory flame burst out from the sword and collided with the thorny chain like a poisonous snake, making a crisp sound. What Natalia did not expect was that a line of blood flashed on the thorny chain and extinguished the flame on her sword, and then entangled the sword body.

Edmund suddenly pulled hard, and a great force was transmitted along the chain toward the sword and Natalia who was holding the sword. He actually wanted to directly snatch the Sword of Davian from Natalia's hand.
