Volume II, Chapter 168: The Siege
With a dark face, Thor drew his sword and turned to meet the first enemy to approach.
In the dense crowd of enemies, Risor saw many of the undead of the drowned, and it was obviously not a good thing to look at them with their heads and brains on top of water plants. There are also ugly creatures with fish heads in their arms, covered in scales, and webbed soles.
As for the first enemy he faced, it was a bit of a headache for Thor.
It was square, like a square piece of translucent gelatin, close to Thor's chest. The gelatin was wrapped in a half-armored corpse and some severed arm stumps, of course, the corpse had been dead for an unknown number of years, as if solidified in the gelatin.
The whole square colloid shook and pounced towards Thor, and the half of the armor in it would make a rusty metal friction sound from time to time due to the squeezing and pulling of the gum, which inexplicably added a hideous feeling.
How does it move forward?What part of the body generates the momentum? Is the gum itself the main body of the monster? Or is the half of the rotten armor wrapped in the gelatin the main body?Where is the weakness? Or where is the heart? Where is the head and ass?
There were too many questions for a while, and it was obvious that it was impossible to analyze and judge rationally from the biological level.
In terms of his physical condition, he didn't have much consumption, so Thor's first attack sword swung very hard, directly connecting the head of the half of the armor, and slashing a large bevel on the square gum.
However, it didn't work, as Thor suspected, the headless part of the gum was still aggressive, and the part of the skull of the slashed armor began to squirm and crawl over.
There was no good way, so Thor could only divide the gelatinous force that rushed in front of him in two, and even the helmetless armor with the gel was diagonally split in two from his left shoulder to his right waist, and then ......
Well, there was originally one enemy, not to mention that it was not killed, but now it has inexplicably become three.
"It's ...... Slime?" Thor subconsciously spat out a name, Slime, an ancient and troublesome splinter monster.
"Nope. Lorna's languid voice came from behind him.
Thor subconsciously turned his head and cast an inquiring glance at Lorna.
"Obviously, it's a ...... Cube-shaped slimes. Lorna replied calmly.
Damn, this stupid woman is still in the mood to interject and joke, if you can live until tomorrow I must let you kneel and sing the hymn, and then hang up and beat after singing, Thor quickly completed the cruel and dark revenge process in his imagination.
After hearing Lorna's answer, Thor's face darkened, and he suddenly remembered a joke. A reckless man confronts a slime slime, he keeps swinging his sword, then a sludge slime becomes hundreds, and finally the poor reckless man is drowned by the slime.
Hurriedly took out the magic book and pulled out a record card to use, and then quickly turned to the new page, Thor wanted to see the specific weaknesses of the slime. However, there is only a simple sentence on the book, Baskar's servant.
Bhaska: Oh, it's the big catfish in the lake.
Thor was a little bitter in his mouth, and no longer swung his sword, but directly kicked the small piece of gum that was close to him away, and the big one cut and kicked again, so be it first.
Turning around and slashing off a drowned, he knocked over two fishmen with two more weapons, and finally stomped on the head of a guy who was crawling and quickly approaching what appeared to be half a mud man.
Thor looked up at the enemy who was still surging in the dark, it was pointless to not fight like this.
Taking two steps back, Thor reached into his arms and decisively tore open the two scrolls, and then looked at the third, forget it, let's go together, and if you keep it, you won't lay eggs. Two half-arc-shaped walls of fire were erected in front of the enemy in front, and then a third, temporarily isolating the danger.
"Are you alright?" said Thor, who backed away to glare at Lorna.
"What are you capable of...... That's it?" Lorna stroked her blue hair and smiled teasingly.
"Why is this the case, I'm a little second-order, and you still expect me to go to heaven?" Thor rolled his eyes.
Lorna stood up with a mournful expression on her face, and gracefully shook the blades of grass on the hem of her skirt, and finally shook her hand under Thor's twitching gaze, and a short wooden wand with emeralds appeared.
Saul's gaze froze, it turned out that she also had space jewelry.
Lorna whispered a spell-like thing, and just as Thor's wall of fire was about to disappear, countless vines suddenly burst through the ground, climbed up the monster's body, and then wrapped tightly around the binding.
Soon, the enemies in the front row turned into a wall of plants in the blink of an eye.
Lorna turned to Sol and smiled proudly, who glared back.
However, this hand is quite effective, and the mage's battle does seem to be easy, and it is really enviable for Thor, who often fights to the death.
Before the two of them could relax for a moment, a buzzing sound suddenly sounded above the plant wall, and a group of large mosquitoes suddenly flew over the plant wall and rushed down.
They looked like a mass, moving quickly, flickering left and right in front of the two, as if looking for an opportunity to attack.
"You...... What are you doing?" Lorna was shocked as she looked at Thor who had run behind her and cowered into the corner.
"This kind of large mosquito is useless with a sword, you can only rely on flames, and it's time for you to perform again. Thor nodded encouragingly.
"But I've only mastered the first order of flame magic, by the way, don't you have a scroll? Use the fire wall technique!" Lorna stomped her foot anxiously on the spot, she was naturally affinity, and her heart resisted the flames after all, so naturally there would be no flame scrolls to spare.
"Wall of Fire? Do you think I look like a wall of fire? Do you think I'll keep a hand on that kind of dense enemy just now? Whatever the first order of it is used first, stop talking nonsense, concentrate, they're coming!" Thor shouted.
Lorna turned her head in panic, and the approaching mosquitoes scurried back some distance as if sensing danger.
Wherever the mosquitoes scurried, Lona's wand pointed, the problem was that she was just shaking it around with her wand in her hand.
"What kind of mushroom are you shaking, hurry up and light the fire!" Thor was grieved, watching Lorna's wands shake as he urinated.
"I ...... No, I suddenly remembered that I had a phobia of intensity, and as soon as I focused on them, I would be afraid and I couldn't concentrate at all. Lorna said with a pale face.
Damn it! Women just have a lot of things!
Thor pounced on the insects with his teeth and claws to scare the mosquitoes away, then pulled Lorna into his arms, blindfolded her with one hand, and pointed his wand at the mosquito swarm with the other.
"Quick, concentrate on your fire magic, and I'll show you the way. Thor shouted.
After a while, a fireball finally shot out from the tip of the wand, and it just felt ...... Somewhat weak. The speed of the fireball at this level was really not very good, and it couldn't catch up with the speed of the mosquito swarm at all, so it was easily dodged.
It took more than a dozen fireballs to barely rub two or three times, driving away the mosquito swarm. Thor smiled, looking unsatisfied, as if he was feeling fun.
As soon as he looked down and saw Lorna looking at him resentfully in his arms, Thor immediately straightened his face.
"Oh! what's the cold and wet thing...... My feet are being dragged down, help!" Lorna suddenly screamed as she struggled in Thor's arms, a small clump of slime gum wrapped around her feet, and the boots on her feet were shaken off by Lorna's struggles.
"Is the Third Order so wasteful?'s elegance is really fragile!" Thor teasingly let go of his hand and let her see for herself.
"I'm Nature's Affinity!' Lorna struggled to sit up, her face flushed and growled at Thor, her whole body trembling.
"Oh~!" Thor turned his head disdainfully, and let out a long, meaningful oh.
"Crackling~" The sound of vines breaking came from the plant wall not far away, and it seemed that it wouldn't last long.
Thor turned to look at Lorna, who seemed to know what Thor was going to say.
"Don't worry, I've already cut off the spiritual connection with the stele just now, it's almost over, the Guardian's offensive will soon recede. Lorna explained.
As if confirming her words, the earthen wall behind her rumbled and slowly sank back to the ground, and the enemy returned to the lake one after another. Darkness and silence gradually returned, leaving only some traces of the battle.
Thor stood up and went to look at the area where Kembert and Elaine had fought before, and then came back with a solemn expression. Both of them are gone, I don't know if they were dragged to the lake after they were killed in the war, I hope they ran away.
"I don't care if your bullshit adventure is for fun or if there's something deeper, but you killed them!" Thor glanced indifferently at Lorna, who was sitting on the ground, and turned to walk towards the woods.
"Where are you going?" Lorna picked up her boot and scrambled it over her foot, then chased after Thor.
"Go back to town and sleep. Thor replied in a muffled voice.
"I didn't know that we would be separated, and I was sorry and sad about what happened to Elaine, but now our agreement is not complete. And thou shalt send me to the city of Kaim, and I will have one...... Girls don't dare to walk alone at night. Lorna whispered aggrievedly.
Thor had a sarcastic smile on his face, but for a moment, he stared back at Lorna's poor acting skills.
"Okay, I'll fulfill my promise and complete this escort, so let's change direction now. Saul said.
Anyway, I don't have anything in the town, and my physical strength can't be talked about exerting much, so let's go directly to Gayin City to rest.
On top of that, interrupted by this sudden battle, Thor now remembered that the fundamental puzzle he was most concerned about had not yet been solved.
Originally, he thought that Lorna was going to trick a few people into accompanying her into danger, or even sending her to death, but at this moment Thor suddenly realized that this was not Lorna's real purpose.
Because whether it is talking about personal combat strength or escort strength, he is not the best candidate. The entire Fengyu Town is full of places, not to mention the second-order, but there are still a lot of them if you look carefully, and even the third-order is available.
Then why did you choose yourself? If you want to say any nonsense reason for looking at each other, Saul will never believe it, not to mention that they don't get along at all.
It's like now that things seem to be over, Lorna still has to bind each other together. The second-order escort the third-order? This kind of lame reason is difficult for her to say as if it were true.
Forget it, why speculate, the truth after the fog is not far away, then go to Jiayin City to have a look.
