Eddie's body had almost turned into a whirlwind, and Brian could only see his shadow.
Even though he had tried his best to chase after him, he still couldn't even touch Eddie's body. Instead, Eddie could easily leave subtle wounds on Brian, making him jump in frustration.
Tang En wasn't worried about Brian's life. The Undying Warhammer of the King of the Mountains not only allowed him to ignore physical exhaustion but also reduced the damage he received. Combined with the dwarven racial talent, it wouldn't be easy for Eddie to kill Brian.
"Damn! That guy is too fast!"
Elsa imagined herself as Brian and realized that even if she faced Eddie, she would be powerless.
Her strength was indeed great, but no matter how strong she was, if her speed couldn't keep up with the opponent, she would just become a punching bag.
"Ha ha ha! You, a little dwarf, want to defeat Eddie? That's just a pipe dream!"
Rex laughed maniacally: "Eddie's talent is the Speed of the Gale! Although he exhausts his stamina quickly, no one can match his speed!"
Eddie, who was toying with Brian, stumbled and glared at Rex.
What a lousy teammate, this is what a lousy teammate is!
Who in their right mind would tell the enemy the weakness of their talent!
"Lord, what should we do?"
Elsa was anxious: "If we can't take him down, Brian will be in danger..."
"Why are you in a hurry?"
Tang En was calm: "Our main target was never him."
"Huh?"
Elsa was stunned and followed Tang En's gaze. Rex and Drum were grinning happily.
"Your meaning is..."
Tang En shrugged, looked around, and patted a surrendered soldier on the shoulder: "Give me the bow."
"Huh?"
The soldier was taken aback but instinctively handed the bow to Tang En.
Tang En tested the feel, drew the bow to full tension, and the bowstring creaked, almost breaking: "This bow is a bit soft."
The soldiers nearby were dumbfounded. They couldn't even draw this strong bow to full tension, and this person did it so casually!?
"It's been a long time since I shot an arrow. Let me try the feel."
Tang En became interested, nocked an arrow, aimed at Rex's head, and then...
"Whoosh!"
The arrow pierced the air and embedded itself in Rex's thigh with a thud.
"Ow!!"
Rex, who was ecstatic, fell to the ground, his fat face turning green with pain. Drum was shocked: "Who did that!?"
"Whoosh!"
Another arrow flew by, grazing Drum's head and embedding itself in the mine entrance, scaring him into hiding behind Rex.
Two consecutive arrows didn't kill them, and Tang En looked regretful.
"Lord, let me try!"
Elsa volunteered, took the bow, and drew it to full tension.
What kind of freaks came from Ellington!
The surrendered soldiers on the ground were already in tears. If they had known these were freaks, they wouldn't have resisted!
"Whoosh!"
The arrow pierced the stone next to Rex, showering him with debris and causing him to scream in pain.
"Eddie! Eddie! I'm about to be killed by arrows!"
Eddie was shocked and roared angrily: "You're shameless! This doesn't follow the rules! The fight isn't over, how can you hurt him!"
"Idiot."
Tang En had only one response to Eddie's accusation.
A bodyguard is supposed to protect his employer, not abandon him and fight with my subordinates. How is that a bodyguard?
Rex and Drum were like live targets right now. Why not take advantage of this opportunity?
Elsa shot two more arrows but missed Rex, only scaring him so much that he wet his pants.
"Let me try! I was a hunter before joining the guard!"
Uncle Depp enthusiastically took the bow, aimed at Rex, and shot!
The arrow grazed Rex, taking off one of his ears.
"A little off! What a pity!"
Uncle Depp sighed, reloaded the bow, and this time the arrow hit Rex's shoulder.
"Damn! Why can't I hit his head!"
Uncle Depp was frustrated and shot several arrows in quick succession.
This time it was even more exaggerated. The arrows hit around Rex but didn't hit him.
But this made it even more terrifying. Rex was paralyzed with fear.
Death wasn't scary; what was scary was waiting to die, and even more terrifying was waiting without knowing when it would happen.
The guards, seeing Tang En and his group shooting at Rex and Drum, also became interested and started shooting with the bows on the ground.
But no one could hit Rex. In the rain of arrows, Rex was terrified, watching the arrows fly toward him. He thought he was going to die, but the arrows always missed him—once was fine, but several times in a row was too much.
Rex felt his heart was about to stop.
Rex completely broke down: "Kill me... please, just kill me quickly..."
"What a pity, just a little more!"
Danny looked regretful.
"Far from it."
Uncle Depp gave professional advice: "Your stance is wrong. Your body should be slightly sideways, and your hands must be steady. Yes, like that, then aim at the target—release the bowstring decisively!"
The arrow flew through the air—piercing Rex's head!
"Hit!"
Danny shouted excitedly: "I killed him! I killed Rex!"
"Kid," Uncle Depp looked pitying, "that arrow wasn't yours."
Danny was stunned: "Huh?"
Elsa casually said, "It was Lord's shot."
"Lord!"
Danny looked at Tang En with a pained expression.
Tang En looked at Danny innocently.
Elsa looked at Tang En with admiration: "Lord, your shot was really good, so accurate!"
Tang En looked at Elsa strangely, thinking and thinking, but held back from speaking.
Hearing them talk about shooting and Elsa saying his shot was good and accurate, the already impure Tang En couldn't help but think wild thoughts.
But he knew these people were simple and didn't mean anything else...
"Sir! Sir! Lord Rex!"
Drum, hiding behind Rex, was terrified when he saw an arrow pierce Rex's head, and he frantically shook Rex's body.
Rex's body swayed and fell on top of Drum.
"Damn!"
Drum struggled desperately, but Rex's body was too heavy, and he couldn't escape!
"Huh?"
Tang En looked strange: "That saves trouble... Rogers, go finish that guy off. You'll be the overseer of the Brussels Iron Mine."
"Me?"
Rogers was shocked, but seeing Tang En's expression, he knew Tang En wasn't joking. He gritted his teeth, picked up a longsword from the ground, and walked over.
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
Drum begged in panic.
Rogers was initially hesitant about killing, but seeing Drum, his anger grew stronger.
It was him! The one who withheld the workers' wages!
It was him! The one who tortured Ellington's companions!
It was him! The one who killed Baldy and Bigfoot!
It was him, him, all him!
Kill him! Avenge his friends!
Kill him! Take back the mine for the lord!
Kill him! Save the companions here!
The anger in his heart burned fiercely. Rogers panted heavily, staring at Drum.
Killing this worm-like scum who begged for mercy would return the mine to Ellington!
"Don't kill me—I'll give you gold! Lots of gold! And women—"
"That gold is our gold!"
Rogers roared: "Those women are innocent and pitiful! Rex is dead, now, you demon, die!"
The sword flashed, and Drum's pleading stopped abruptly. His head rolled to the ground, and blood spurted out.
I... I killed him... the overseer!
That's right!
Rex is dead, and Drum is dead!
The Brussels Iron Mine, from now on, returns to Ellington!
"Lord!"
Rogers returned to Tang En's side, wiping the blood from his face: "Mission accomplished!"
Tang En nodded. This guy didn't disappoint him.
If he couldn't even kill his enemy, this coward wouldn't be qualified to be the overseer and wouldn't be able to maintain order.
Eddie roared: "Bastards! You dared to kill Lord Rex while I was fighting!"
"Idiot."
Tang En looked disdainful: "If you didn't want him to die, don't run around."
"I'll kill you! I'll kill all of you!"
Eddie was burning with rage. Even if he survived, Rex and Drum were dead, and he would still be punished by Baron Duve!
His comfortable life would be over, how could he not be angry!
Even though they were many, so what!
I'm fast!
Eddie grew angrier the more he thought about it.
Kill that woman first, then kill the people around him one by one, making him slowly fall into despair!
Eddie made up his mind, instantly breaking away from Brian's range and charging at Elsa like a shadow!
Elsa immediately reacted. In an instant, her strength gathered in her right fist, and she instinctively swung at Eddie!
"Boom!!"
A terrifying sonic boom and hurricane swept the area. The punch broke through the air and hit the building from a distance. With a loud crash, the entire building disappeared, leaving a deep trench behind!
Monster, monster!
Eddie, who narrowly avoided the punch, was terrified.
What kind of monster is this woman!?
How could an ordinary person who hasn't awakened her talent have such strength!?
Not just Eddie, but Tang En, who almost got caught in the blast, was also shocked: "Elsa?"
"Hehe..."
Elsa stuck out her tongue and made a silly face: "I forgot to control my strength..."
