Chapter 396: Chapter 42 Warden

Soran followed him at the back.

The opponent was stronger than before, so it may be dangerous to go too close.

Just after the Paladin left the city, Soran noticed that someone was rushing out. The Paladin had killed the desert bandit in the town; it even seemed that the bandit was a leader of some sort. Thus, it was almost impossible to leave the city without being hunted by others. Desert bandits ranked first among mountain bandits in different places. Their ferocity was not far from that of pirates; their desire for revenge was extreme. Since the bandits sold their goods in the city, the desert bandit could not have been alone.

The Paladin went out alone, so the desert bandits would likely hunt him!

That was why Soran followed him.

He didn’t like to help others, but he didn’t want the Paladin to die here, so he decided to follow him and see if the Paladin could match the desert bandits. If not, he’ll intervene slightly.

However, seeing that the Paladin was so confident, it seemed that he had some ability.

The sand storm became stronger.

The Paladin did not move quickly. This led to Soran suspecting whether the Paladin did this on purpose.

Sure enough!

After about an hour, sounds of horses came from afar, and then ten masked desert bandits gradually approached from the side of the dunes. They surrounded the Paladin swiftly.

“Kill him!”

The relentless and fierce desert bandits had no superfluous words, and there was no chance for talking with the paladins. Under the command of a desert bandit who seemed to be the leader, the other desert bandits charged toward the Paladin. Some of them pulled out their swords, while others took out bows and arrows to aim at the target. The number of desert bandits was nearly 40. Even a legendary figure would find this situation a bit tricky.

“Seems like he’s in a bit of trouble,” Soran looked ahead but did not move.

He needed to make sure that the Paladin wasn’t asking to be killed.

If he didn’t even foresee the situation, he would be asking for death. Such a person was not worth saving because, ultimately, they would still be killed.

“Charge!”

With a clang, the young Paladin raised his hand and threw away the body of the bandit. Then he rushed towards him with a huge sword in his hands and roared, “You have sinned! Thus you’ll pay!”

A glow appeared.

The Paladin’s whole body seemed to be covered by some energy. He swung his huge sword and rushed up to a bandit. In an instant, he slashed through horizontally. With the whine of horses, he cut down the horse and the bandit.

“Justice be with me!”

“Hand of Tyr!”

The Paladin’s palm pressed down on the two-handed sword. Then the seemingly ordinary two-handed sword separated from the middle and became two one-handed swords. He held the swords and rose in the air. In an instant, two bandits were killed on the spot.

“Dance of Death!”

The whirlwind of the ability was more amazing than Soran’s [Spinning Strike], able to directly split all the enemies involved in two parts.

Blood, corpses, and chopped off limbs.

At this moment, the violence shown by the young Paladin seemed to have a violent aura!

This was what Soran remembered them to be; the Divine Avengers.

“Tang, Tang, Tang!”

Arrows shot at the Paladin’s body, but it failed to penetrate his silver broken armor. He blocked one of the arrows with his scale arm armor, and then suddenly accelerated to the archer in front.

“Justice! Holiness! Courage!”

The young Paladin laid his hand on the sand, and the crafty desert robbers immediately turned his horseback when he found that he was close to him. It was difficult to catch up with these enemies, only relying on his legs. However, the Paladin seemed to have activated a special ability in the next moment. With the holy white light turning into a summoning array, a tall white horse rushed from it.

“Greater Summon Mount!”

“Heavenly horse!”

The white steed rushed out of the summoning array. The Paladin jumped on the horse. Under the telepathic conditions, the heavenly steed automatically chased the enemy. This was a horse from the heavens. Only a few professions could summon it; Paladins were just one of them. These horses were stronger and smarter than the horses on the material plane. They were creatures of the higher realm and had a monster level of 10.

Blood gushed out!

The Paladin moved like the wind, striking down the enemy one at a time.

“Tang, Tang, Tang.”

The young Paladin was just like merciless reapers, without any mercy for the bandits. His moves were fierce, ruthless, and even more aggressive than Soran’s attack when he reaps the enemy.

Anyone that got struck down was sure to be dead!

Even if one or two of the bandits knelt down to beg for mercy after being taken down, the Paladin did not hesitate and directly cut off the enemy’s head with his sword.

The brutal battle continued.

The Paladin gradually had some wounds. Even the strong celestial horse was a little breathless at the moment because it had an arrow in its abdomen.

“Healing Hands!”

The holy light emerged. The Paladin could use it to heal the wounds after he had inspired the holy energy. However, the healing effect was not as good as that of the priest. This ability could only be used once a day, but the holy energy of healing could be used separately. What the Paladin healed was not his wounded self, but the heavenly horse. With a low roar, he suddenly jumped off the horse’s back and slashed at an enemy.

His power was weaker than before.

Without the advanced legend field, he could not master the strong legend abilities of “Armor Skin,” “Epic Toughness,” “Epic Prowess,” “Perfect Physique,” etc., which meant that his explosive powers were not supported.

The bandits suffered heavy casualties, but after finding that the Paladin was exhausted, they rushed back up again.

“Sacrifice, honor, unyielding!”

The young Paladin was still resolute. He closed his two one-handed swords again, then took a deep breath and shouted, “judgment!”

“Sword Form [Crossed Slash]!”

The merciless and domineering sword light emerged, and the enemies who rushed in front of him were cut into four neat pieces in an instant.

Soran was shocked.

Advanced level sword form!

There were not many abilities in the world that could be called advanced swordsmanship. The complete White Raven Formation was one of them, but Soran had not really mastered it until now, because he had not got a complete knowledge. Sword Form [Crossed Slash] was another advanced sword technique, which originated from the crusade against the infidels. The complete version should be called the [Silver Crossed Slash]. Such a sword form had gone beyond the scope of mortals.

A Sword Saint, who was close to the legendary level, when launching the Qi rising chop, wields his sword at something five meters away. Obviously, he didn’t hit it physically, but he could still split the item.

In simpler terms, it was something like the sword’s Qi.

This kind of ability was very difficult to cultivate. Anyone who had mastered it had experienced a long period of austerity. Basically, the difficulty was similar to the training of a Sword Saint once seen by Soran. The young Paladin did not use the complete version of Silver Crossed Slash, but the power of each attack was just as fierce as the swordsman who activated Qi.

As the strike got more powerful, the strain on his body became greater!

Soran could see that he was close to the end, but when he was ready to help the Paladin secretly, suddenly, he felt something and retreated into the shadow again.

“Judgement!”

Another huge figure appeared. It was a very tall man, nearly two or four meters tall, looking like a little Giant.

With a hammer in one hand, he rushed in like a tiger into a flock of sheep. In a flash, there were dozens of bandits killed by his hands. This tall and incomparable man was carrying a heavy hammer and a heavy book with metallic luster on the other hand. He was expressionless but ruthlessly killing the bandits in front of him. Almost none of the bandits on the scene could resist a move under his hand, all of which were killed with one blow.

Soran was shocked once more.

He looked at the tall man and muttered, “Warden!” —

“Good.”

The Warden glanced at the corpse all over the ground, and then his eyes fell on the young Paladin. He said slowly, “Although it’s not as good as I expected, you’ve done well for your level.”

“Young man. You’ve passed my test here.”

A Paladin with a profession level of 16 or so, who dealt with a desert bandit group alone and killed two-thirds of the enemies; this was already a brilliant result.

The young Paladin kneeled down and said, “Your Excellency Warden.”

The big man looked at him, suddenly his expression changed slightly, and said in a solemn voice, “Is that a Rogue nearby? Come out! ”

Detected?

Soran slowly walked up from a sand dune.

The Divine Avengers had always been hidden in the Gobi area. They were active in the desert most of the time. Because they were also orderly, this organization also accepted some training from the Monks.

Perhaps this was how he detected Soran! (Hearing wind sounds)
