Amazon Roadside Robbers 4/4
However, Penthesilea, in her stubbornness, was still somewhat relentless.
"Big sister, why are you afraid of him? I can take down this kind of scum with one hammer."
"We have enough seedlings for [Day of Rest], and we should go home now. There's no need to waste time on this adventure."
The red-haired female leader suppressed her ominous premonition and nodded to her sisters, signaling them to return to the valley.
"That won't do! The ones we've caught so far are all cowards. Didn't we say we wanted to find someone you, eldest sister, would like to meet? I just heard that the Arcadia Princess is holding a marriage contest these days, attracting young men from all over Greece, and the heroes of the Calydonian Hunt have also been returning from all over. It's a rare opportunity."
Penthesilea blocked their way with wide eyes. At this moment, the red-haired female leader was both amused and exasperated, already somewhat regretting bringing her youngest sister along.
Why did she specifically choose the day the Calydonian Hunt ended to block the road to Arcadia?
Do you really think all Greek men are like those terrified tribesmen?
Many of the city-states here, even when the Father God Ares took the field, could only return with his sword broken.
The ten seats on Olympus are not occupied by only the God of War.
"Tch, I don't understand you. What kind of trouble can two people cause? Do you think you can stop me from attacking?"
Penthesilea, who was being carried into the line, couldn't help but purse her lips and mutter to herself.
These words instantly awakened the red-haired female leader. She turned around and looked at the canyon, her gaze suddenly meeting a pair of blinking scarlet Serpent Eyes. The other party even blinked with interest.
Was that person smiling at her?
They've really been discovered!
"Watch your surroundings, another one might be approaching!"
The red-haired female leader shouted urgently and drew a long sword that was nearly two meters long and had an exaggerated design.
However, it was too late. A dull thud rang out, and one of the sisters who was scouting ahead was sent flying backward, crashing through three giant trees before falling unconscious on the spot.
From the shadows, Heracles' imposing figure emerged from the forest, silently observing the group of women lying in ambush. His gaze swept over the weapons in their hands and the patterns on their shields, causing him to frown.
Amazons? How did these wolves get inland?
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The red-haired female leader sensed the raging divine power emanating from the burly man opposite her, her breath caught in her throat, and she immediately roared at the top of her lungs.
"You should surrender, Amazons."
Once the clamor subsided, Heracles offered some serious advice.
"Amazon! Woohoo!"
The remaining seven sisters immediately roared from their chests, took off their shields, grabbed their spears, or swung their javelins and chain hammers, and charged forward in formation.
Hercules frowned, raised his hand and gripped it horizontally. With a surge of divine power, a black stone axe-sword with jagged, saw-like blades appeared in his palm.
Heracles then moved with lightning speed, relying on his beast-like instincts to precisely dodge the volley of thrown weapons, hacking and smashing his way through with his nameless axe-sword.
Along the path, both shields protected by divine runes and weapons made of rare metals broke one after another.
In just a few dozen breaths, the Amazon Warrior had charged out were sent flying back at an even faster speed, each one carving deep furrows in the ground, spitting out golden-red blood, and looking utterly exhausted.
Upon seeing this, the Amazon Queen's pupils contracted sharply and her heart pounded wildly.
That's incredible!
If this guy hadn't temporarily withdrawn some of his strength, her sister would have been killed on the spot.
Even so, this guy barely took a few breaths, clearly still handling the situation with ease.
After several thoughts flashed through her mind, she immediately realized that this beast-like man was definitely not someone she could handle.
Unless...
Exploit his weakness!
"Stop him! Buy me some time!"
The Amazon Queen gritted her teeth and roared. As her sisters struggled to their feet and charged at her formidable enemy, Heracles, she flew to the precipice, leaped down from above, and cleaved the handsome young man swaying in the canyon with her broadsword.
Do I look like someone is being bullied? They actually want to take me hostage.
Samael was taken aback when he saw the red-haired female swordsman jumping around aggressively. He was both amused and exasperated. He raised his hand and summoned the Medusa's Shield, holding it in front of his chest.
"Boom!"
Amidst the clanging of metal in the explosion, layers of air surged through the canyon, sending sand and gravel flying and clanging against the stone walls and the armor of the two men.
Seeing that the yellowish-brown aura protecting the handsome man had not wavered much, the Amazon Queen immediately stomped her right foot hard, causing hundreds of radiating cracks to appear in the ground.
At that moment, a powerful, explosive sound emanated from her tall, athletic body.
"Blood of Ares, burn— War God's Roar!"
Instantly, wisps of blood mist seeped from the Amazon Queen's pores, forming raging crimson flames on her body.
As the air distorted slightly, the pervasive stench of blood seemed to pull one to a brutal battlefield, where the roars of warriors and the clanging of weapons were clearly audible.
Click!
Amidst the crisp, trembling sound, the divine barrier on the outer layer of Medusa's Shield could not withstand the pressure and gradually crumbled.
Samael's eyelids twitched. Behind the light screen, he saw a woman with blood seeping from her eyes, nose, and mouth. Her body was exhausted, yet she was frantically squeezing out her potential, desperately pushing forward with her sword. His eyes showed a mixture of surprise and solemnity.
With a sudden buzzing sound, the dim Medusa's Shield vanished, replaced by specks of starlight.
It was a success!
The Amazon Queen's expression brightened. However, due to her still-dazed ears, she could no longer hear the echoes from her sisters on the mountaintop. Her heart tightened, and she braced herself against the force of the recoil, charging towards the trump card she had used to restrain her powerful enemy.
However, just as she thought she had it all figured out, a sharp wailing sound came from the air the moment she stepped within two steps of the other person.
The handsome man, who was supposed to be like a lamb being protected by a lecher, instead faced the sword's edge and lunged forward.
Fearing that the man would die by her sword and the situation would become irreversible, the Amazon Queen paused instinctively and forcibly sheathed her sword.
In the crucial moment of the psychological and technical battle, Samael narrowly avoided the attack, and as he closed in to within half a step, he unleashed his long-prepared right fist.
With a violent spasm in her abdomen, the Amazon Queen's vision went black, the greatsword fell from her hand, and she collapsed to the ground.
"Don't get me wrong, seeing how hard you've worked, I just feel it's necessary to have a fight with you, and after that..."
This will make you completely give up!
Samael cracked his knuckles, smiled, stepped forward, rested his chin on his hand, and asked curiously.
"So, what are you talking about? If you tell me, I can remind Heracles to hold back."
The female warrior slowly released her grip on the silver greatsword, responding with a humiliating, muffled voice through gritted teeth.
"Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons, are you satisfied?"
At that moment, Samael, who knew little about the situation above, froze upon hearing the name, his eyes gleaming strangely, and he began to have doubts.
So, Your Majesty, you didn't come here specifically to try and rape me, did you?
