North Wind Canyon
Two thousand Half-Elf Warrior Mine Guard were equipped with the Silver Pegasus Legion's superior standard weapons and armor, and rode warhorses with some Silver Pegasus blood.
The other 1,500 Half-Elf Warrior who had just joined the Mine Guard were also assigned excellent-grade weapons and armor. Roy didn't have enough warhorses for the time being, so he could only distribute the argali sheep he had seized from the headhunters to them.
These Half-Elf Warrior all had mounts, making them extremely fast at advancing across the tundra.
They followed behind the headhunters, while the Griffon Corps and Assassin Squad ambushed and killed the headhunters along the way.
With their superior equipment and the cooperation of Commander Helik, the Half-Elf Warrior of the Mine Guard drove the headhunters out of the Kaltim Mountain Range in one fell swoop.
Even Commander Helik hadn't expected Roy's Mine Guard to grow so quickly...
In a valley in the northern tundra, shouts of battle filled the air.
Countless headhunter corpses lay on the thick carpet of grass here. The last group of headhunters gritted their teeth and retreated northward from North Wind Canyon.
These headhunters, covered in wounds, abandoned almost all their supplies and fled desperately towards the Northern Plateau.
The Half-Elf Warrior rode after them on horseback, constantly harassing them from behind.
The headhunters didn't even dare to turn around and fight, and could only let the Half-Elf Warrior kill the headhunters who were lagging behind.
North Wind Canyon is another passage from the Kaltim Mountain Range to the Northern Plateau, and like the Tianpu Canyon in the Gaxi Mountain Range, it is a very important strategic location...
Pushing aside the tall grass on the hillside, Sabrina, leading a squad of Half-Elf Warrior, saw a group of headhunters fleeing North Wind Canyon in disarray.
Once they escape through the passage of the North Wind Canyon, the headhunters can quickly disappear into the mountains of Northern Plateau and hide their tracks.
These Half-Elf walked very quickly, their steps even a little flustered.
There were only a few dozen headhunters in the group, one of whom was Agas, the headhunter Chieftain who was the last to retreat from the Kaltim Mountain Range. He was huddled in the group, looking resentful.
In Agas's view, the group of Half-Elf Warrior chasing them were of very average fighting strength. He kept encouraging the fleeing headhunters along the way...
However, the headhunter was terrified by the Half-Elf Warrior behind him and had no intention of joining Agas in the counterattack.
They just wanted to run as fast as they could; once they were out of North Wind Canyon, they would be safe for the time being...
The headhunters rushed up a grassy slope.
The Half-Elf Warrior Half-Elf Warrior in the weeds suddenly stood up, each wielding a longsword, and charged at the headhunters.
The fleeing headhunter was clearly more on guard, even gripping his War Blade tightly as he ran.
In an instant, the Half-Elf Warrior and the headhunters were locked in a fierce battle.
Sabrina stood at the forefront of a group of Half-Elf Warrior, raising her Serugi Longsword high. As she wielded the sword, the sword shadows transformed into a mountain of swords, crashing down upon the headhunters like an overwhelming tidal wave.
A total of six headhunters were forcibly drawn into the swordplay by Sabrina.
The headhunter's War Blade was knocked away by Sabrina's sword flash, leaving bloody scratches on his body.
The headhunters, their hearts hardened, risked inflicting numerous wounds on their bodies with swords, determined to pounce on Sabrina and wrestle her to the ground.
A wave of energy erupted from Sabrina, sending several headhunters flying.
Sabrina charged into the group of headhunters, and those who got close to her were all wounded...
When the headhunter Chieftain, Agas, saw Sabrina on the grassy slope, he rushed towards her without hesitation. He took long strides and leaped high into the air when he was still more than ten meters away from Sabrina, bringing his War Blade down towards Sabrina's head.
At the same time, a Ancestor Shadow appeared behind Agas.
The black markings all over Agas's body exuded a dangerous aura, as if they had all come alive, and the Ancestor Shadow had become clearer...
The Ancestor Shadow became incredibly solid. After a moment of flashing, the Ancestor Shadow appeared behind Sabrina. His hands transformed into countless black ribbons, tightly binding Sabrina's legs and hands, rendering Sabrina unable to struggle or resist for an instant.
The headhunter Chieftain, Agas, saw that the Ancestor Shadow had successfully bound Sabrina, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.
But before he could strike with his War Blade, Sabrina's body erupted with a dazzling light.
The black ribbons melted away in the radiant light, and Sabrina instantly regained her mobility, swinging her Serugi Longsword at Agas...
Agas faced Sabrina's mountain of swords without flinching or dodging, and forcefully cleaved the War Blade down.
Sabrina's sword mountain bloomed like a lotus flower, steadily holding back the War Blade in Agas's hand.
The headhunter Chieftain, Agas, revealed a ferocious smile. The War Blade in his hand slashed at the lotus sword mountain that Sabrina had unleashed, instantly tearing countless wounds from the sharp blade. Even Agas's right arm was mangled and bloody.
Amidst the splatter of blood, Agas revealed a sinister grin.
To Sabrina's astonishment, Agas held a gleaming dagger in his other hand. This exceptionally sharp dagger sliced through Sabrina's heavy armor and plunged into Sabrina abdomen.
Sabrina's body swayed slightly, as if she were about to fall over...
But Agas's smile lasted only a few seconds before Sabrina's longsword unleashed another burst of light, piercing Agas's forehead...
The headhunter Chieftain's body lay stiffly on the grass, surrounded by the corpses of dozens of his henchmen.
These headhunters were all killed by the combined efforts of the Half-Elf Warrior. This team of dozens of headhunters was wiped out on this grassy slope in just a quarter of an hour.
Sabrina planted the blood-stained Serugi Longsword in the grass and sat down. Although she was wearing exquisite heavy armor, she had suffered a severe wound to her chest and abdomen. Before dying, the headhunter Chieftain had used his War Blade to cut a gash in Sabrina's ribs. If the wound had been any deeper, Sabrina might have had her chest ripped open by that sharp blade.
She is now pale due to excessive blood loss.
Roy tightly wrapped his abdomen with Hemostatic Bandage, and then made him drink the Tree of Life Sap and Healing Potion. Under the effect of the Holy Light Art, his wounds healed quickly.
Behind Sabrina lay several heavily wounded Half-Elf Warrior.
They were wounded during the attack on the headhunter Chieftain...
Roy crouched on the grass, healing the Half-Elf Warrior, and said to Sabrina, "You should wait for us for a while."
"It was too late. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have escaped!"
Sabrina struggled to her feet from the grass, and some blood seeped through her bandages.
