Chapter 2677: One on Two (1)
Translator: Raz P., White Sky
Fighting two opponents by himself was nothing new to Li Xiaowei. As a top-tier Archer, he often had to face more enemies on the battlefield. Only this time, the strength of the two enemies he was facing far exceeded all the enemies he had ever come across in his life.
Tang Nazhi’s departure had doubled Li Xiaowei’s pressure.
However, he knew very well that if Tang Nazhi did not call out for reinforcements, it would not be long before the devil generals would gather in one place, and at that time, only death awaited them.
Li Xiaowei was not sure how long he could hold Tian Jue and Ji Ying off. He could only stall them as long as possible to ensure that the undead’s work would not be interrupted.
After pouring several bottles of grandmaster-level buff potions into his mouth, Li Xiaowei’s strength had been comprehensively improved. However, the large number of potions were basically burning the soul in his body. Even grandmaster-level potions would bring quite terrible side effects after consuming so many of them.
Yet, at present, Li Xiaowei could no longer bother with it. He only wanted to contain Tian Jue and Ji Ying to the maximum extent.
Tian Jue and Ji Ying charged at Li Xiaowei from the left and right. The swords in their hands were wrapped with dark devil energy.
Two powerful devil energies were coming directly at his face. Li Xiaowei wanted to retreat, but he could not. Once he retreated, he would put the undead behind him in danger.
No choice but to face them firmly!
The arrows mixed with lightning were quickly placed on the bowstring. With the Archer’s speed raised to the extreme, a pair of blasting arrows directly shot toward two different directions, aiming at Tian Jue and Ji Ying, respectively.
When Tang Nazhi was here, he attracted a lot of attention from Tian Jue and Ji Ying. Li Xiaowei was able to cooperate with him and use long-range attacks to contain Tian Jue and Ji Ying’s offense. But right now, he was fighting alone. He was facing two devil generals whose strengths were above his own. The fired blasting arrows were easily dodged. Tian Jue, who was approaching rapidly, hacked his sword at Li Xiaowei’s shoulder. Li Xiaowei immediately turned and dodged to the left. However, Ji Ying suddenly appeared on his left side, forcefully blocking his escape.
Tian Jue and Ji Ying’s coordinated attack was second to none, even among the twelve devil generals. Even Yan Di could not escape from it with a hundred percent certainty.
The double a.s.sault of two devil generals was so fast that it couldn’t be captured by the eye. Li Xiaowei could only rely on the senses of his body to subconsciously take a step back and dodge the stab of Ji Ying’s sword. Almost at the same time, he fell sharply backwards and managed to escape Tian Jue’s fierce attack again.
Tian Jue and Ji Ying’s attacks both missed and they immediately disengaged. Li Xiaowei simply had no way to prevent himself falling to the ground. He suddenly pulled out a simple arrow, held the longbow in his hands and shot a powerful blast behind him in an instant. With the impact of this arrow, his figure leaped up and was pulled completely out of Tian Jue and Ji Ying’s attack range.
The successive actions of attacking and defending between the two sides ended in the blink of an eye.
A series of extremely fast responses were completed in just a few seconds.
The brief confrontation had pushed Li Xiaowei’s speed to the limit. Just a few seconds later, the cells in his whole body felt like exploding. With the slightest hesitation, he would have been killed under the sword of Tian Jue and Ji Ying.
Li Xiaowei felt very lucky at this moment. That it was he, and not Tang Nazhi, who had stayed here in the end.
Swordsmen couldn’t compare with Archers in speed or reaction times. If his foolish brother were the one who had stayed here until reinforcements arrived, he feared that there would only be one dead body left.
