Chapter 184 - One After Another
The metal claw rushed over, followed by the whistling wind.
Rhode dodged to the side and escaped from the golem’s attack. He swung his sword toward the opponent’s head. Although chopping off its head wouldn’t deal a fatal blow, it was still the golem’s control centre. The Gargoyle’s Heart provided the energy for driving the gear while the magic runes on its head could be used to adjust this force. If he could attack this part, the golem body would move like sports car with broken brakes; in other words, it would be completely finished.
Rhode’s counterattack was fast, but he still didn’t succeed.
When Rhode’s sword made contact, the golem suddenly shrugged and transformed back into a brass ball. It rolled to the side at the same time and escaped from Rhode’s attack. However, Rhode’s sword didn’t stop there. To the contrary, he took the advantage of the empty space to shift his position, escaping from another golem’s attack. At the same time, he lowered his sword and heavily knocked the brass ball’s outer shell.
Clang!!!
Anne retreated back. Her eyes widened and she looked at the two golems before her in disbelief.
Maybe because the guardian golem’s body looked fragile, unlike Rhode, Anne didn’t choose to dodge when she was attacked. She thought that the golem wouldn’t be too powerful, and as a shield warrior, it was also difficult for her to dodge here and there like a swordsman…
That was why when she saw the two golems rush toward her, her first reaction was to lift her shield. Anne simply thought that if she could block their attack, it wouldn’t be difficult for her to finish them off using the shield.
However, when the two golems heavily collided with the shield, Anne realized that things were completely different from what she had thought.
A huge impact once again came through, but this time Anne had already made preparation in advance, so the attack wasn’t effective. To the contrary, she shouted, holding the shield in her hands and forcefully waving it to the left. This was called learning from mistakes. In the previous battle, Anne was unable to do anything, but this time, she wouldn’t give them any opportunity. She grabbed the guardian golem that collided with her shield and immediately launched a counterattack at the same time.
Before, I couldn’t hit you because you ran fast. Now you come to me, there’s no way I can’t hit you again.
And the reality was the same as Anne had thought.
The guardian golem was finally unable to escape Anne’s attack in a dashing manner like its other two companions. It was sent flying by the shield and not only that, it also hit its other companion behind like a cannonball. The two metal golems heavily hit the wall, turning into a pile of junk.
When Anne was serious, two mere magical creatures wouldn’t be a match for her.
Seeing this scene, Rhode was secretly shocked. He knew that Anne was strong, but he didn’t think that she could even smash the golem apart just by relying on her strength… Although those golems were old, they were still quite good; it was difficult to injure them using his sword. Unexpectedly, Anne could directly smash it with her shield…
Before Rhode could speak, a low sound once again echoed.
