Chapter 43: come down

Redwood lookout tower, top of the tower.
Uther put the shield in front of her, half of her body was behind the shield, and the entire face exposed only the part above her eyes to check the situation behind the shield.
Under the way of Uther's shield, no matter whether Rhodes used a sword to attack or choose to use spells, it would not have much effect.
Uther is still walking slowly. Originally, the distance that the two people could reach with a few arrow steps seemed extremely long at this time.
Youser is very clear that the other party has no escape route. In this case, Uther did not choose to attack first, but chose this way of pushing forward, forcing the other party to reveal flaws.
In Uther's perspective, as he pressed forward, the enemy stepped back a few steps in order to maintain distance, and the whole person was almost attached to the side rail.
Seeing that the enemy is close to the edge of the watchtower, Yusser knows that the other party will not let him approach so close. When reaching a certain distance, the other party will respond, whether it is moving to the side or attacking themselves. These The behavior will expose it to flaws.
Just waiting for the opponent to reveal the flaws, Yusser can knock the opponent down with a single blow.
Although the current distance can be directly attacked, Uther is clearly not willing, but waits for the enemy to reveal the flaw more securely.
As Uther expected, as Uther stepped forward, the distance between the two gradually shortened, and Rod seemed to be unable to withstand the pressure. He did not choose to move to both sides, but first shot, footsteps Look forward, and stab at Uther with a sword.
When Rod's footsteps were moving, Uther realized that Rod was ready to attack and looked at Rod's attack. Uther pointed the shield in the direction where Rod stabbed, regardless of whether Rod's sword could stabb In fact, there are no small flaws.
Youse took Rod's actions completely into his eyes. The rich combat experience of the senior soldier allowed him to make the right reaction in the first time.
Rhode also understands that his attacks are difficult to work for, so he only seeks opportunities. Rhode retracted when he was about to stab Uther's shield, his body retracted towards the rear.
Just when Rod was just recruiting, Uther also moved.
Uther directly sideways, the shield in his hand slammed in the direction of Rhodes, trying to knock down the enemy while it was difficult to move because of the move. Uther clenched the weapon in her other hand, ready to attack.
Obviously, when Rhod shot, Rhod anticipated the reaction that Uther might have made. Before the sword had been received, he flicked to the side, and the direction of dodge was exactly the direction of Uther's shielding hand.
Avoiding the impact of Uther's shield, Rhode is still on the top edge of the tower. Rhode had just finished dodge, and before he could stand still, Uther followed and swept with a sword.
Rhode greeted him with a sword and blocked Uther's attack. He was about to swing his sword again. On the side, Uther's shield hit Rhodes again. Rhode had no way to parry, only to roll to the side.
Facing a heavily armed warrior, Rhode may not have any advantage in swordsmanship alone. If he wants to win, he still needs to find an opportunity.
At the end of the roll, Rod was still on the edge of the tower, but only changed a place. Preparing to deal with Uther's next attack, but found that Uther did not attack, but stood on the spot with a shield, his face a bit uglier than before.
It turned out that while Rod was tumbling away from Uther's shield, Uther hit a shot, and the shield hit the side fence. Watching the wooden fence fall down, Uther instinctively instinctively Feeling the fear, he was unable to continue the pursuit.
However, Uther was a veteran fighter anyway, and he adjusted his state in an instant, preparing to continue to press against Rhodes.
Because Uther's shield has been in front of him, Rod has not been able to find an opportunity to attack, but Rod also realizes that even the generally dominant Uther still has a fear of death.
Watching Uther raise his shield again and march towards himself, Rhode knew that the enemy chose the safest way and would not reveal any flaws to himself. If he wanted to defeat the enemy in front of him, he needed to create his own chance.
Rhode realized that in this environment, Uther, who had a big advantage, still wanted to kill himself securely, instead of rushing up, relying on his powerful attributes and fighting hard with himself.
This kind of cautiousness of Uther seems to be a good behavior, whether it is the choice of the merchant group or the choice in battle, but excessive caution has become Uther's weakness at this time. Thinking of this, Rod knew that maybe he could find an opportunity.
Watching Uther advance again, Rhode held the sword with one hand, facing Uther's direction, the other hand dropped, and several objects appeared in his hand, then slammed into Uther's head.
Uther noticed these movements of Rod, and his previous combat experience made Uther understand that people with space rings may carry some hidden weapons that are convenient for sneak attacks. Seeing Rod’s movements, Uther naturally takes Rod’s behavior. Fall into this category.
Seeing the objects hitting her in the air, Uther didn't dare to care, especially now she was still on the edge of the tower. Uther raised the shield in her hand, ready to block these hidden weapons.
These objects hit the shield, and the few crisp sounds of the impact made Uther feel something wrong.
Through the afterglow of the corner of the eye, Youser saw that there were several objects on the side, and the red light flashed in the sunset, and the weapon that was shot by the shield was actually just a few gold coins.
Suddenly, Uther realized something and just wanted to put the shield down, only to see a bright white lightning strike from below the shield. Lightning struck Uther's body, relying on the protection of the armor. Although he did not suffer much damage, Uther felt that most of his body was paralyzed.
If it is a normal battle, even if it is hit by this spell, Uther will not be too worried. With the protection of armor and shield, even if the body is paralyzed, there will be no harm during this period. But in this case, the paralysis, which was not what was originally considered, was fatal to Uther.
The moment you put the shield down, Uther also saw Rod's movements.
Rhode did not choose to attack with a sword, but instead of taking out a shield, he charged at Uther.
Youse had no way to try to move, but because she was paralyzed by half of her body, she could not move. She could only stabilize the shield and stand in front of her body.
If the shields collide, if you rely on the basic attributes of the competition, even if Rod charges against Uther, Uther will be able to stay in place. But at this time, because half of his body was paralyzed, Uther couldn't support it at all. After being hit by Rod with all his strength, Uther was knocked back directly.
And behind him, there was nothing but a few sections of collapsed guardrails.
