The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 43: The Glory of Dragon Knight (Part 1)
Is the 17-year-old astrologer apprentice Jonah afraid of fighting? He couldn't answer this question himself, because his whole life was to study astronomy and geometry in the astrology tower. Before coming to Cherry Crossing, Jonah hadn't even fought an ordinary fight. After becoming a guest in room a51, the only life-and-death fight he faced was a night attack by the powerless squad. The possessed demon went through everything in his place. Jonah probably understood the battle from the narration of his companions. The tragic.
Actually, during the successive years of battles in St. Boren, the astrologer apprentice walked on the plains of red soil wearing the invisible halo of the members of the five major guilds. He had seen too much life and death, blood and fire, and the passing of life was not for him. Will touch the fragile side of the soul more than the withering of flowers.
But now Jonah is no longer a detached observer wearing an astrologer's robe, but a pale boy who wears an ordinary thick cotton coat, limps on one leg, and is so weak that he needs the protection of others at all times. His worldview was quietly changing, especially at this moment, when the thin and tall man was splashing blood on his face, and Sibi’s arrow grazed from the tip of his nose, before he had time to say a word, the entire tavern had become a chaotic hell.
The arrow failed to hit, Qiaopu tilted his head slightly, and the flying arrow cut off the tip of his fork and took away the last small piece of apple pie.
"Okay, I'm full." Qiaopu sighed, took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and took out a silver coin and placed it on the bar. "No need to look for it." He smiled and stayed opposite. Belle said, and then he drew his sword and pierced it into the heart of the bar waiter.
"Bele!" The red-haired Jofanie covered her mouth, turned and ran to the depths of the cave.
Qiaopu waved his hand, and the two black-cloaked dragoons dropped their knife and fork and drew out their swords.
Indignant customers waved swords, benches, tableware, and beer glasses. The blades of the dragoons radiated a light blue magical light. The weapons blessed by magic were indestructible. They used swords, benches, tableware and The beer glass is chopped into pieces, and the human body is easily cut like a hot knife to cut butter. The group of people who rushed to the front fell, groaning in a pool of blood holding their stumps, and the rioters behind were obviously shocked and hesitated.
"They lost the opportunity. You still have the opportunity to answer questions, gentlemen." Qiaopu played with the long sword in his hand and cut a silver dinner plate into even small pieces like a cake. The center of the sword hilt is inlaid with a huge ruby, leaving a blood-red afterimage when it is swung. It is obviously a high-level enchanted weapon.
At this time, Sibi’s second arrow was shot, and Qiaopu smiled and put up his sword in front of him, but he obviously underestimated the power of the girl’s bow and arrow, and hit the enchantment with a flash of light. On the long sword, the angle was turned and the speed was not reduced, and it was ejected out, "swish" through the gap between the leaves of the dark golden enchanted scale shoulders of the golden dragon knight, and penetrated Qiaopu's left shoulder.
The arrow flew towards the dark roof of the cave with a smear of blood, and Qiaopu held his shoulder in amazement, a trace of blood seeping from his fingers.
"Just kidding." He looked at his wounds and smiled bitterly: "I was hurt by a little girl. They will laugh at me. Definitely."
For a moment, the tavern customers shouted and rushed up again. Faced with the overwhelming attack, the two dragoons stepped back and formed a small circle around Qiaopu. Qiaopu swung his sword away from a wine glass and blew a loud whistle.
The ground-traveling dragoons waiting outside began to rush towards the gate.
The first close-range charge, the thick oak door was shattered into pieces like paper, and two dragoons sat on the tall earthwalking dragon, carrying thunderous footsteps and the smelly gale into it. In the tavern, the discerning lance tore the air. Customers who were too late to dodge at a few tables at the door were crushed violently along with the tables and chairs. They stepped into blood mud. Jonah had never felt death so close. He clearly saw the jagged fangs in the huge mouth of the dragon, the carnivorous dragon. The stench from his mouth rushed over his face, and he felt like he was about to be swept away by the wind like a fallen leaf.
Toba appeared on the drag route of the dragoons. He did not know when he took off his coat, rolled up the sleeves of his denim shirt, sank down, straightened his arms, and marbled lines appeared on his thick arms. The two dragoons held their lances with their outer hands. The head of the room squatted between the two dragons, bowed his head to avoid the bite of the ground travel dragon, and at the moment of passing by, grabbed the life of the ground travel dragon's bridle with his fingers. The cowhide belt exhales: "Hey!"
Jonah saw his thigh muscles creep and swell like a mischievous monster, his heels plowed deep ravines on the rocky floor, gravel flew across, and the momentum of the two-headed ground dragon was hardened by Toba. The life stopped, and there were two crisp bangs. The raw cowhide belt could not withstand the strong pulling force and was strangled on the spot by the fingers, but the unbalanced earth travel dragon could no longer maintain the forward posture, amid a screaming howl, both ends The dragon's head fell heavily on its feet and hit the ground on its back, causing the entire tavern to sway slightly.
One of the dragoons couldn't get out, with a scream, he was crushed by the heavy beast, and the other swiftly jumped up, dropped his lance, and drew his sword in the air, but did not wait for the enchanted sword to leave the scabbard. A hand was lightly pressed on the back of his hand.
"Jiuguang... King Ming's spear... shoot!" The strange hand changed two ancient handprints, and the Ming King's spear fired close to his body nailed his cold breastplate with a golden tail flame, "Boom! ......" There was a loud, dull bell-ring sound, which instantly attracted the attention of the entire tavern.
The dragoon in the air turned his head slightly and looked at Qiaopu in the middle of the tavern. Qiaopu also saw him. He saw that his standard breastplate was punched with deep holes by the ancient self-cultivation method of the southern Buddhist country. The carapace stuck together thinly, protruding from the back, and the dragoon opened his mouth, spitting out a lump of blood and crushed internal organs that had been squeezed out.
"The dead Southerner was really interested in using a spell." Sibi said in surprise.
He actually spoke! It turns out he can talk! ——Jonah had just been relieved from the shock brought by the head of the room, and was shocked by this abnormal phenomenon again.
Yekong fell to the ground with the dragoon's corpse, took off the scarf covering his mouth and nose, touched his index finger in a pool of blood, put it on the tip of his nose, smelled it, smelled it again, and sighed.
Qiaopu jumped off the high stool in disbelief, unbuttoned the black cloak with his fingers, revealing the dark golden enchanted scales all over his body, and walked slowly to this side under the cover of two dragoons. Come.
"Refresh!" Toba squatted down, his two huge fists slammed on the head of the earth travel dragon, the ugly beast screamed, blood spurted from the nostrils, and the sharp claws were nervously planing. Can't see it anymore. The head of the room tore off his shirt, exposing a chest with a metallic luster that is not like human muscles, and yelled happily.
The dragoons outside were blocked. They regrouped and prepared to charge. Toba pulled out the lance nailed to the ground, and rushed out first, shouting, "Protect the astrologer! There are women and women. Kid!"
Yekong narrowed his eyes to look at the dragoons outside, then at the people fighting in the tavern, holding the hilt of the "Buddha Tooth" in his hand, and walked out with Toba.
"Your Excellency the astrologer." Elliott drew out his sword, lowered his head and asked: "Can you protect yourself? There are women and children?"
"See your ghost woman and child!" Sibi shot three arrows in Qiaopu's direction, turning his head and cursing in time.
"Shit." Long Ji smiled. She stepped back quietly and disappeared into the shadow of the tavern.
"I can protect myself, don't worry." Jonah suddenly realized that he was also a part of the battle, nodded in reply, and began to frantically search for materials to portray the star formation. The Rose Knight weighed the situation and made a judgment. The unicorn turned dexterously in small steps, kicked on the ground with four hooves, and Elliott pranced out of the tavern.
The ground is rocky and there is no way to carve grooves; pencils, charcoal, chalk, nothing, I can draw precise geometric figures even without a set square, but the medium has always been a terrible problem, this time I will return to Cherry Du , I must find a few crystals suitable for engraving the star array... Jonahu thought about it, picking up and throwing away the chair legs, silver forks, wine glass handles, candle holders, apple pie, and somebody’s fingers.
Wait, blood has unique conduction characteristics and is a good carrier for the energy of the stars. Koshava once said that in the remote war era, the ancestors used blood to draw a huge attacking star array. The power of the small group ended the whole war, and therefore became the same as the five major guilds, no longer allowed to appear in the battle, and no longer affected by the battle...
Jonah didn’t hesitate. He pushed aside the debris on the ground and used that bleeding finger to quickly draw a complex attack star array on the rock floor. His brain was like the most precise protractor, and his arm became a ruler and Compasses, the blood forms one circle after another, the five-pointed star and the radiation are connected by a wavy curve.
The bloodstains faded, "Damn!" Jonah cursed, squeezing the severed finger hard, and fresh blood flowed out again, turning into a part of the red star array. The last two curves represent the horns that absorb free energy. After finishing, Jonah immediately pressed the star array and closed his eyes to meditate. It didn't take a few seconds to touch the interstellar line that represents the power of light, heat and changes in form. He recited the astrologer’s motto silently, activated the star array, the free energy of the star rays was drawn into the vortex, and gathered in the center of the blood pattern to zoom in and rotate rapidly. When the force of the star array was so great that it was almost uncontrollable and constantly bulging in his hands, Jonah Open your eyes, aim at Qiaopu and the two dragoons, and yell: "Get out of the way!"
The diameter of the mouth of the bowl, the dazzling light that is so hot that it is difficult to look at it, illuminates the faces in shock. The "scorching starlight" absorbs all the light and heat in the tavern in an instant, and traverses the void like one lightning.
Qiaopu didn’t have time to dodge,—in fact, he didn’t have to dodge. The scorching starlight completely lost its accuracy. He strayed more than three feet to the right, burned a string of hanging bacon to ashes, and drilled another one on the rock wall. In the deep and red hot cave, melted rocks dripped to the ground, igniting fragments of tables and chairs. The tavern went dark, and then lit up with the fire.
Qiaopu rubbed his eyes and drove away the band of light imprinted on the retina. "Magic?" He twisted a strand of burnt flax curly hair with his fingers and smiled, "There are endless surprises today. I see Here, there is enough combat power to put my two brothers to death. The answer should be on you."
Opening the buckle on the belt, Qiaopu took out the dark-gold enchanted helmet from behind, buckled it on his head, put on his lower armor, held the sword in both hands, and walked step by step. Behind him, two dragoons blocked the chaotic attack of the tavern guests.
Jonah has no strength to regret, he feels his mental power is weak, his hands are bleeding, and his desire to increase his power makes him infuse too much energy into the star array, which makes him unable to accurately aim, and at the same time suffers from recoil. .
"What's in a daze, brother? One more shot! A little bit more!" Sibi yelled, jumped to his side, plunged the serpentine cone at the bottom of the longbow into the ground, spread the four fingers of his right hand, and three. The silver arrows condensed side by side on the full bowstring, "boom boom boom", the three arrows fired together, and the three arrows delineated different and intertwined flight trajectories, and appeared in front of Qiaopu almost at the same time.
The Golden Dragon Knight did not evade. He lowered his head slightly, holding the sword in his backhand, and his arms folded into an x shape to cover his eyes.
Good luck did not reappear. Three arrows hit the chest, abdomen, and arms of the whole body's scales head-on. The enchanted scales gave off a faint red light, and the invisible long arrow trembled slightly and collapsed into three rays of light with a little silver light. cigarette. Qiaopu was stunned by the impact, but nothing more. He shook his arm and started walking unharmed. The sparkling eyes in the helmet were flickered by the fire.
"Are you kidding?" Sibi almost jumped up.
Jonah tried his best to lift a heavy arm. I'm such a useless guy. He thought sadly. What mysterious prophecy, what demon outside the sky, he can't even use a simple attack star array, can't protect others, let alone protect oneself.
