Chapter 6: The Price of Arrogance (1)
Because the magic circle just now consumed too much energy, Steles, who was a little out of strength, looked at the people behind him. The mage, who had consumed too much energy for a while, was still buying time to recover more mana. Sterns knew very well that neither the quantity nor the quality of his army was a match for the apostles, and that unless there was some miracle, his own army would not be destroyed. The indomitable city of St. Sophie died with their battles, and it was not far from falling.
"My lord, I think I have a solution. Viren, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke at this moment.
As a witch with a brilliant mind, Katena loves to see the tragedy of her prey when it is dying. With a torturous nature, she has created a variety of poison techniques that can slowly and painfully kill her opponents. For example, there is a poison technique that slowly erodes away the victim's skin little by little, and the pain is felt by the victim after a few quarters of an hour. Victims will watch their skin disappear little by little without feeling any pain, and after a quarter of an hour the severe pain will be the last straw that breaks them. Another example is a poison technique that causes the victim to feel a constant pain until their flesh and bones are separated. The dozen or so bones in front of her made Katena very excited and felt that it was not enjoyable enough. And the setbacks she encountered later made her feel very unhappy. However, she was a little curious, not thinking that these magical elements called magic could threaten her, so she simply gave them enough time for these humans to prepare and disappear from this world with despair. "It's been a tenth of the time, I don't know how you're ready, if you're not ready when the time comes, then wait for death. With an ultimatum, Katena played with the small sphere of green mist, and the other apostles were arrogant and completely unfocused on the confronting Guard.
A few Guards soldiers who felt ignored rushed towards Katena angrily, but before they could take a few steps they were enveloped in a seeping green mist, and unlike the last time, the soldiers' howls continued for a long time before ending with the complete disappearance of their skin. Even so, the poor soldiers did not die instantly, and one of them dragged his mangled body to crawl towards Sterls bit by bit and eventually grabbed him by the legs. The white bones, which had been completely corroded, closed in vain, as if begging Sters not to let him suffer any more. It wasn't until Viren couldn't bear to shoot an arrow through the soldier's still-intact brain that his pain ended. Katena stared at all this coldly, and said coldly, "This is the punishment for you for not following the rules." Also, you're running out of time. ”
Sters looked anxiously at the circle formed by the magicians who were protected at the back of the team, and at this moment the circle was faintly emitting bursts of white light. Several magicians slowly urged the circle with a focused face, not disturbed by the tragic situation in front of them at all. Steers stabilized a few soldiers with grief and anger on their faces, and tried his best to maintain the already chaotic morale, while secretly saying, "I hope this spell won't make our efforts in vain. ”
Katena's patience is being worn out little by little as time passes. She clearly knew that it would be very easy to destroy the humans in front of her. There are only two reasons why she said that these human soldiers should be given a quarter of an hour: one is that she wants to make the so-called human elite in front of them feel the deepest despair when they have just gathered hope. This is not to say that Katena is ruthless, but simply a common way for the Apostles to deal with other races. Since they are not of the same kind, there is no mercy at all. Another point is to understand the power of the magical elements that Master Ureeva speaks of. As a leader of the mid-level apostles, Katena thought that the so-called magical elements would definitely not be able to hurt her. And the reason why the previous foreign general Gnietz died in battle was just because of a momentary negligence and did not pay attention. But even so, her patience was gradually exhausted. After looking around impatiently, Katena looked at Hill as if she had discovered a new world, and wondered, "Hey, elf, I can't imagine that you can meet such a poor little thing here." Are you a survivor of that little village? I thought I would never come across a collection like yours again, but it seems that today is really my lucky day!"
"That's right, I'm a survivor there, and probably the only elf on the continent still alive. I am indeed a good collector's item for you. Ciel gently waved away Steles' hand that was holding her back, and pulled out the purple longbow behind her back. A pure black mist like Katna's green mist appeared out of thin air and condensed into a black arrow. "Unfortunately, I don't call it your collection. You, on the other hand, will be a special prey for me. After all, there has never been a female apostle under my arrow. ”
Sharp arrows from the string flew towards Katena with a burst of ghostly cries. Sensing the danger, Katena put away her playful smile and stood up and began to recite the incomprehensible incantation. His hands were waving as fast as if they were dancing. Within a few steps of the arrows were within a few steps of her, a green weapon soil resembling a shield appeared between the arrows and Katena. In the blink of an eye, there was a strong collision between the arrow and the shield, and the black arrow easily shattered the thick shield with an indomitable momentum, but then several layers of green shields unfolded in succession. Although the black arrows shattered all the green shields one by one in an instant, they also gave Katena time to escape. With a turn, a black arrow slashed across Katena's left cheek, taking away a few drops of blood-red blood.
"You hurt me, I'm angry right now!" wiped the blood from her face, and Katena glared at Ciel viciously. "But I'm angry not because you hurt me, but because you broke the rules! It's not the time I've set for you! And you're using our own weapons! Where did you get that?!"
Ciel looked at the weapon in his hand and replied with a relaxed expression, "Is this what you said? I got it from killing an apostle of your clan called Lord Gehya in my hometown. I thought it was pretty good, so I used it. In addition, I also asked the Four Harbingers to strengthen this treasure for me, which is more powerful than before. What do you think?"
Katena's anger was about to explode, and the seemingly delicate elf girl in front of her actually killed a dignified mid-level apostle and strengthened the mid-level apostle's weapon and injured her! And she didn't attack suddenly according to the rules! When she was about to take revenge, something that made her even angrier happened unexpectedly.
"You're wrong, we're not breaking the rules you've made, and we're not even more so disdainful of the rules you've made. And most importantly, a quarter of an hour has arrived. ”
