Chapter 10

Whoosh!~

The trilobed armor-piercing arrow whistled as it tore through the air, followed by another arrow in quick succession.

After all, the dragon knight was not a mage. Eroca, the wyvern rider of the Portland Republic, did not believe that the opponent's mana reserves could compare to those of a true mage. He drew his large bow to the full, like a full moon.

Let's see who can outlast whom?

After being deflected by the deliberately created slant of the light element shield, the over one-meter-long arrow still mostly embedded itself in a nearby tree trunk.

This scene made the twin sisters gasp in shock.

Lin Mo was right; the opponent could indeed pierce through a large tree. Even hiding behind a tree might not be safe.

This penetrative power was almost comparable to the armor-piercing rounds of a sniper rifle, which was truly terrifying. Was this really the power of a bow and arrow?

Unknown to them, the large bow in the opponent's hand, when fully drawn, could store the power equivalent to an ancient five-stone bow.

If infused with fierce and unparalleled battle qi, it could pierce not just a tree that two people could barely encircle, but perhaps even stone.

"Fall back!"

Li Muxin gave her sister a tactical gesture. She dragged her sister, who had discarded her crutch and was hopping on one foot, and decisively retreated behind Lin Mo, taking cover under the protection of the light element shield.

The opponent's archery skills were too sharp. Once they showed themselves at the edge of the light shield, they would inevitably be hit. They didn't even have a chance to fire their guns.

In some ways, the bow and arrow in the opponent's hands were almost as powerful as the 95-style assault rifle. If hit by an arrow, the consequences would be unimaginable.

As a martial artist with a natural affinity for light elements, Lin Mo fully utilized his four-star elite low-rank light element affinity. Besides practicing martial arts, he also made efforts to control some low-rank light element spells.

Apart from the first-rank light mirror spell he had mastered to perfection on Earth, the light shield spell was almost the most proficient second-rank spell he had.

Of course, the active elemental energy in the atmosphere of this world also played a role in enhancing its power.

Suddenly, the wind wyvern Gri under Eroca's command let out a roar, and a visible mass of turbulent air whistled away.

Bang! After a powerful thud, the instantly burst fine wind blades shredded the bare tree where the sisters had been hiding into a shower of fragments.

Fortunately, Lin Mo, with the light shield, led the twin sisters into the surrounding forest, where the dense forest provided them with natural cover.

"Gri, take to the sky!"

Seeing that his archery and the wyvern's "Raging Wind Blast" had no effect, Eroca immediately patted the wind wyvern to leave the treetops.

In his heart, he sighed, acknowledging that the true dragon knights of the Sylan Empire were indeed resourceful in saving their lives. Even without suitable weapons or a dragon by their side, they were not so easy to kill.

The wind wyvern, flapping its wings to create a gust of wind, carried its rider into the sky, circling above Lin Mo and the twin sisters.

Despite the dense vegetation blocking their view, the three could not escape the keen sense of smell of the wind wyvern. The trilobed armor-piercing heavy arrows that rained down from above were just as powerful.

"Wherever you hide, you won't escape from the grasp of the dragon knight Eroca. Morin, I will take your head!"

Eroca stared intently at the forest below, his sharp eyes scanning the trees, and fired another arrow as a warning.

Although he was not a mage, at this height, his powerful bow and arrows had a significant advantage, completely suppressing the opponent. Moreover, the wind wyvern Gri was ready to use its innate attack spells as support.

The young wyvern rider was quite confident in achieving this important battle merit during this reconnaissance mission.

"Southeast wind at level 3, clear visibility, preparing to activate the laser guidance beam, 3, 2, 1, fire!"

Bang! Bang!

Two thin, emerald-green beams of light flashed from the forest below.

After two crisp explosions, a dark shadow suddenly fell from the sky, crashing heavily into the forest.

The wind wyvern Gri, who had not yet reacted, suddenly felt a lightness on its back. Turning its head, it saw that its rider had vanished.

"Aaaaah!"

Where was Eroca? Gri let out a panic-stricken cry, its wings flapping wildly as it flew around, searching for its rider. It soon found Eroca's body.

The young wyvern rider had fallen into the forest, lying face up, motionless. Strangely, there were two blood holes in his forehead and chest, his eyes wide open, still showing a trace of disbelief and unwillingness.

Two 95-style assault rifles in the forest below fired unexpectedly, and two 5.8mm standard rounds instantly killed the wyvern rider, who was completely unprepared for automatic fire.

The counterattack was so sudden, with no warning.

Whoosh! Whoosh!~

Suddenly, two arrows shot up from the forest below, accurately hitting the wind wyvern Gri's chest and abdomen.

These two arrows were the trilobed armor-piercing heavy arrows that the wyvern rider Eroca had just shot down.

Lin Mo used the opponent's method against them, picking up the two trilobed armor-piercing heavy arrows made of fine iron and throwing them back by hand.

After the twin sisters simultaneously fired their guns to kill the young wyvern rider, he took the opportunity to severely wound the wind wyvern.

With the power of ninth-rank light battle qi, the arrows were just as powerful as the large bow in the opponent's hands, successfully bringing it down.

The severely wounded Gri let out a mournful cry, unable to control its body, and fell like a broken kite.

This sudden change occurred without any warning. The wyvern rider and the wind wyvern, who had been in a dominant position, were both hit and fell unexpectedly.

Bang!~

The wind wyvern, falling from the sky, broke half the branches of a large tree and crashed to the ground amidst a shower of leaves.

Whether it was the two armor-piercing heavy arrows or the impact of the fall, the wyvern suffered irreparable fatal injuries.

Its pair of dragon wings were completely deformed and broken in multiple places. Blood gushed from the two arrow wounds, and its mouth, filled with sharp teeth, continuously overflowed with blood and even fragments of internal organs.

In any fierce battle between a flying creature and the ground, the ground usually wins.

The landing point of the wind wyvern Gri was less than ten steps away from the already dead young wyvern rider Eroca. Even though it was severely injured and on the verge of death, it still struggled to move to his side, to accompany its rider.

However, its severe injuries and rapidly depleting strength were not enough to support its movement. The wind wyvern let out mournful cries, its body trembling violently, but it could not move even a step.

The blood that soaked the ground beneath it took away the last of the wind wyvern Gri's strength. These ten steps seemed like an insurmountable distance, a chasm between it and Eroca.

A figure clad in black heavy knight armor emerged from behind a nearby tree, walking step by step.

It was Lin Mo, who had led the twin sisters into the forest to take cover, or more accurately, the dragon knight of the Sylan Empire's Royal Dragon Cavalry, Morin!

"Aaaaah!~"

The wind wyvern glanced at the newcomer but, surprisingly, showed no signs of aggression.

Severely injured, it had lost the ability and the right to seek revenge.
