Chapter 43 Fall
Mahogany watchtower, top of the tower.
Uther put the shield in front of him, and half of his body was protected behind the shield, and only the part above the eyes was exposed on his entire face to check the situation behind the shield.
Under Uther's way of raising his shield, whether Rhodes used a sword to surprise or chose to use a spell, it would not have much effect.
Uther was still stepping forward. Originally, the distance between the two of them that could be reached with a few strides turned out to be extremely long now.
Uther knew very well that the other party had no way out. In this case, Uther did not choose to attack first, but chose this way of pressing forward, forcing the opponent to reveal his flaws.
From Yosser's perspective, as he pressed forward, the enemy took a few steps back to keep his distance, and his whole body was almost pressed against the guardrail on the side.
Seeing that the enemy was approaching the edge of the watchtower, Uther knew that the opponent would not allow him to approach so close. When the opponent reached a certain distance, the opponent would definitely react, whether it was moving to the side or attacking him. Behaviour will expose its flaws.
Just waiting for the opponent to reveal his flaws, Uther can knock the opponent down with a single blow.
Although it was possible to make a direct attack at the current distance, Uther was obviously unwilling, and instead waited more securely for the enemy to reveal his flaws.
Just as Uther had expected, as Uther pressed forward step by step, the distance between the two gradually shortened. Rhode seemed to be unable to bear the pressure. Leaning forward, he stabbed at Uther at the same time.
When Rhodes just moved, Uther realized that Rhodes was preparing to attack, and seeing Rhodes' attack method, Uther pointed his shield at the direction Rhodes stabbed, no matter whether Rhodes's sword could stab or not. In fact, there are quite a few flaws.
Uther took Rhode's actions fully in his eyes. The veteran fighter's rich combat experience allowed him to make the right response at the first time.
Rhodes also understands that his attacks are not effective, and he does so just to find opportunities. Rhodes drew back when he was about to stab Uther's shield.
Just when Rhodes was just closing in, Uther also moved.
Uther stepped forward directly, and slammed the shield in Rhodes' direction, trying to knock down the enemy while he was unable to move because of the attack. Uther clenched his weapon in his other hand, ready to attack.
Obviously, Rhodes had anticipated the reaction that Uther might make when he shot, and before the sword was retracted, he dodged to the side, and the direction of dodge was exactly the direction of Uther's shield-wielding hand.
Avoided the impact of Uther's shield, but Rhodes' position at this time was still on the edge of the top of the tower. Rhodes had just finished dodging, and before he could stand still, Uther followed and swept with a sword.
Rhode waved his sword to meet him, blocked Uther's attack, and was about to swing his sword out again. On the side, Uther's shield smashed towards Rhode again. Rhode had no way to parry, and could only roll towards the one on the side.
In the face of heavily armed warriors, Rhodes may not have any advantage by relying on swordsmanship alone. To win, he still needs to find opportunities.
After the roll was over, Rhodes was still on the edge of the tower, but in a different place. Just as he was preparing to deal with Uther's next attack, he found that Uther did not attack, but stood there holding his shield, his face was a little uglier than before.
It turned out that at the same time as Rhode rolled to avoid Uther's shield, Uther hit the air with a single blow, and the shield hit the guardrail on the side. Watching the wooden guardrail fall down, Uther instinctively pulled back his force. Feeling the fear, he could not continue to pursue.
However, Uther was a senior fighter after all, and he adjusted his state in an instant, ready to continue pressing on Rhodes.
Because Uther's shield was always in front of him, Rhodes couldn't find an opportunity to attack, but Rhodes also noticed that even Uther, who had the advantage in general,
There is still a fear of death.
Seeing Uther raise his shield again and move towards him, Rhode knew that the enemy chose the most secure way, and would not reveal any flaws to him. To defeat the enemy in front of him, he needed to create his own opportunities.
Rhode realized that in this environment, Yosser, who had a big advantage, still wanted to kill him safely, instead of rushing up and relying on his powerful attributes to fight himself recklessly.
This kind of cautiousness of Uther, in normal times, whether it is the choice of the business group or the choice in battle, may be a good behavior, but being too cautious has become Uther's weakness at this time. Thinking of this, Rhode knew that maybe he could find an opportunity.
Watching Uther advance again, Rhodes held the sword in one hand, facing Uther's direction, the other hand dropped, several objects appeared in his hand, and then slammed into Uther's head.
Yosser noticed these actions of Rhodes. His previous combat experience made Yosser understand that people with space rings may carry some hidden weapons that are convenient for sneak attacks. Seeing Rhodes' actions, Uthers will naturally take Rhodes' actions. classified into this category.
Looking at the object that was hitting him in the air, Uther didn't dare to be careless, especially now that he was still on the edge of the tower. Uther raised the shield in his hand, ready to block these hidden weapons.
These objects smashed onto the shield, and the few crisp sounds from the impact made Yosser feel that something was wrong.
Through the corner of his eye, Uther saw that there were several objects beside him, flashing red light in the setting sun, and the weapons that were thrown by the shield were actually just a few gold coins.
Suddenly, Uther realized something, and just wanted to put the shield down, but only saw a bright white lightning strike from below the shield. The lightning struck Yosser's body. Relying on the protection of the armor, although he did not suffer much damage, Yosser felt that most of his body was paralyzed.
If it is a normal battle, even if he is hit by this spell, Uther will not be too worried. With the protection of armor and shield, even if his body is paralyzed, he will not suffer any damage during this period. But in this case, the paralysis, which was not a big deal, was fatal to Uther.
The moment the shield was put down, Uther also saw Rhodes' movements.
Rhodes did not choose to attack with a sword, but at some point he took out a shield and charged towards Uther.
Uther had no choice but to try to move, but he couldn't move because half of his body was paralyzed. He could only stabilize his shield and put it in front of his body.
If the shields collide, if you rely on the basic attributes of the competition, even if Rhodes charges and slams into Uther, Uther will be able to stay in place. But at this time, because half of his body was paralyzed, Yosser couldn't support it at all. Under the full impact of Rhodes, Uther was directly knocked backwards.
And behind him, apart from a few collapsed guardrails, there was nothing left.
