Chapter 3 Lumberyard Raid on the battle

Suddenly, the battle broke out. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

According to Eronica's plan, it was supposed to be a stealth decapitation battle. I don't know what went wrong, but not long after stepping into the range of the lumberyard, kobolds came from all directions.

There is no doubt that this was an ambush.

Although the kobold's intelligence level should not be able to formulate a "strategy", now is not the time to delve into this issue - because the battle broke out too suddenly, and because of the lack of experience, Aronika did not not restrain the team members, and the "Sword and Rose" was cut into several parts by the other side, and they fought separately.

Mages are not as useful as warriors in this mess. Especially the low-level mages, who have just left the apprenticeship queue, simply have no ability to cast amplified area spells, nor do they have enough defensive spell slots to protect themselves in the chaos of war.

As a member of the low-level mages, Monia was not much better than them. Luckily, though, the most powerful mercenary girl in Sword and Rose was right next to her - with a young swordsman in the city, she at least didn't have to worry about her back.

Even so, the situation is not encouraging.

Monia's first spell was the Ice Shield, which was a very mainstream and useful low-level spell before the Mage had grown enough to build Mage Armor. With this spell, the ice crystals flying around her can withstand at least three kobold blows, providing a relatively safe and undisturbing environment for her subsequent spell casting.

When the last syllable of chant fell and three ice shields emerged from the air, dancing around the little mage, Monia breathed a sigh of relief and began to prepare the second spell. The second spell she chose was the greasy spell, the greasy spell is a trick that the mages like very much, it can effectively curb the enemies who are close to her, not to mention, the spell is simple and fast, it is difficult to avoid it by surprise, and if you are not careful, the upper level of the warrior may also be able to land.

This spell is too suitable for dealing with the menacing kobolds, but the only drawback is that the range is too small, and it is not enough to block all the kobolds in front of them. After all, this wasn't a spell developed to deal with the melee, and its rank was just a trick.

For this kind of trick, the mage can be cast quickly, Monia is naturally no exception, looking at a time, the little hand shook, and a puddle of slippery oil stains appeared on the ground unconsciously, the range is not large, but the effect is quite wonderful, the soles of the feet of the first few kobolds slipped and fell to the ground, and the few behind did not have time to react at all, and stepped directly on the former's body and rolled into a ball.

"Good."

The little mage narrowed his eyes slightly, the gem on his head glowed a dangerous red, and began to chant the first attack spell. She chose the well-known fireball spell for this spell, and among all the low-level spells, the fireball spell is the most basic spell for mages, and it is also a spell with great lethality to living beings.

Mages have always had an ambivalent mentality about fireballs - on the one hand, its position among low-level spells is unique, and on the other hand, too many low-level mages blindly use fireballs because of its power, which does not help young mages to truly possess the wisdom of mages.

Of course, Monia didn't care about that—if she did, she wouldn't have chosen the sorcerer in her previous life, known as the Humanoid Autopilot Cannon. Speaking of which, a large part of the reason why she chose to major in fire-based spells was because of fireball spells, because of the video of "Five Fireballs Bombarding the Great Mage" recorded by a mage with ID Akmund in her previous life.

This can greatly satisfy the desire for destruction in her heart.

Like now.

Fireball is not a very easy spell to master among low-level spells, and fire is also a type of shaping that is more difficult to control in the ether. The two phases are superimposed, and it takes twelve bytes for the fireball technique to chant in the language of magic, and even in the elven language, which is closer to the origin of the ether, it also requires nine bytes, and if there is no greasy technique as a buffer, the kobold will rush up and slap the face when chanting these bytes.

However, thanks to the cushion of the greasy spell, Monia prepared the spell. Gently holding up the fiery fireball suspended in the palm of his hand, he recited the last character scale, and the small fireball flew towards the kobold who had just struggled to get up from the greasy technique.

With a "bang", the fireball exploded in the kobold, and the kobold who was hit head-on fell before he could scream, and the grease on the surrounding kobold was ignited by the splashing sparks, igniting a raging fire on his body.

As the most commonly used greasy technique for mages, there are actually many classifications. Monia's choice of Brand's greasy spell is not the most extensive range of greasy spells that a young mage can do, nor is it the fastest spell casting, its only characteristic is the greasy shape of the ether, which is a flammable substance that can deal considerable damage with the fireball technique.

With the least mental attrition, the shortest time, the maximum damage is output.

This is Monia's mage wisdom.

Of course, if he could, the little mage would prefer to use a simple, brainless, large-scale AOE clearing spell like Meteorite Falling and Flame Red Lotus...... Well, if you can, if you can, you don't use your brain, you don't use your brain, and you can just run over it all the way.

In some places, the imprint of the previous life is still very strong.

The combination of greasy and fireball roughly wiped out the five kobolds, relieving the little mage of a lot of pressure, and while she was preparing the fourth spell, she had time to keep an eye on the situation of the rest of the battlefield - the battle was roughly divided into three parts: she and Aronika were one part, the other two professions each brought a few mercenaries to be a part, and the last part was also the most fierce fight was most of the ordinary mercenaries.

Among the three parts, the easiest and fastest to break through is the part of the two lower positions, and Monia is the part that most of the mercenaries are not optimistic about. It's not that the mercenaries aren't kobolds, it's that the kobold mages have made a move.

It's fireball.

The kobold mage's fireball spell has been chanting for a longer time than Monia's, and it is much smaller, but the mercenaries hit by it are still unable to escape death, and the irresistible power of the spell is a big blow to morale, if it is allowed to continue to cast spells, I am afraid that it will not be long before this part of the mercenaries will completely lose the will to fight.

However, Monia didn't intend to let this happen, the spell she was preparing now was still the Fireball Spell, and among the low-level spells, it was difficult to find an offensive spell that was more suitable than the Fireball Spell, and it was rare to have a defensive spell that could resist the damage of the fire.

At least, Monia didn't think that the tiny kobold mage could withstand the damage of the fireball spell.

A nine-tone spell doesn't sound like a long time, but it actually takes a lot of effort. The language of a mage has power, and how to use the power of language is a must for every mage. To unleash a powerful spell, each scale must be accurate and match the action that guides the casting, otherwise, the more powerful the spell, the easier it is to hurt yourself.

That's why there are only irascible mages, but no reckless mages.

There is no doubt that Monia is not a reckless mage, and although she likes simple and brainless violence, she always keeps her composure and her spells never drop the chain when it matters most.

This time, of course, was no exception

The aether-shaped flame burned silently above the palm of her hand, and the little mage had already prepared the spell, but now she was a little troubled - the kobold mage was a little far from her position, and near it, there were seven or eight strong, not like kobolds, guarding it, and it was difficult for this fireball to kill it at once.

However, now it is also ready to be fired, and the flame is originally shaped by the unstable shape of the ether, confined it in a stable posture, and it is consuming the spiritual power of the little mage all the time. Monia didn't like the loss of mental power for no reason, and she wasn't a hesitant person, so she didn't think twice about it, spat out the last syllable, and threw the fireball.

"Bang"

As expected, the fireball was blocked by the kobold guards at the cost of their lives, and the kobold mage didn't even get hurt by the slightest fur, the only good news was that the fireball just now startled the lame mage and forcibly terminated its casting.

Although I haven't experienced it firsthand, it's certain that no mage wants to try it. Monia estimates that this kobold mage, let alone casting spells today, just thinking, his brain will be like a knife twisted.

The wild road is the wild road, and you can't do it by focusing on spellcasting.

Monia sneered to herself, but she also realized that she might not have a good time in the future. The kobold mage's loss of spell casting is a good thing for the current battle situation, but not for the mage himself - in the spell cast, her fireball caused "outstanding" damage to the kobold mage, successfully attracting a lot of hatred.

In the game, the main output attracts the first hatred sequence and is often the prelude to the annihilation. In reality, this situation will not change much either.

Monia subconsciously took a step back and moved closer to Eronica. It turns out that this mercenary girl under the blood-colored rose is indeed a trustworthy and good teammate, and the reason why she was able to cast so many spells in a row just now is largely due to the girl's protection. Whether we can break through this embarrassing situation now is still up to see if the girl can protect Monia well after she becomes the first target.

"Trust me."

Eyes touched the mercenary girl's eyes, and Monia read the message from her determined gaze. For some reason, the relieved little mage began to concentrate on preparing the next spell, Elise's cobweb.

Elise's Cobwebs is a special low-level spell, one of the few range-of-effect field control spells among low-level spells. However, as one of the few spells in the lower tier that is very useful, the reason why it is not as popular with mages as Fireball and Greasy is that it has inevitable flaws.

The cast time is too long, and fifteen scales need to be chanted; Distinguishing friend from foe requires precise aether manipulation and mental guidance. These two huge flaws make this low-tier spell a limited spell that can only be used in a few cases.

Monia really didn't want to use this spell if she could.

But this is not the time to be petty, the little mage recited one by one powerful scales, guiding the shaping of the ether with his hands, and with the last scale being recited, a large cobweb suddenly fell from the sky, greatly restricting the kobold's movements.

Cobwebs and fireballs can also deal a decent amount of damage. However, Elise's spider web technique is a very special branch of spider web surgery, which greatly strengthens the range of spider webs, and in terms of limiting abilities, the winding effect of spider silk is not so outstanding.

In other words, the kobold's movement is not very restricted, and the ignition effect of the fireball technique is not particularly ideal.

Fortunately, Monia is not fighting alone, there are three warriors by her side, and seven or eight mercenary warriors. The wide range of cobwebs also envelops their enemies, giving them a chance.

The first to realize that the opportunity had come was Eronica, and the mercenary girl next to the mage was the first to react, she did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but carefully stood beside Monia, holding up the shining long sword, and shouted: "I'm Eronica, everyone, move closer to me!" ”

She is the leader of the mercenary group, the backbone of the mercenary group, and the protector of Monia, all she can do is this, and this is only what she should be.

Her shout was very effective, and the two closest fighters and the best of the two mercenaries reacted immediately, gave up on continuing to kill, and reflexively took advantage of this gap to rush and gather together. The five remaining mercenaries were not slow to react, but they were a little far away from Eronica, and it was difficult to join them before the cobweb effect ended.

However, in Monia's eyes, it is not a big problem whether they come or not, they are originally weaker ordinary mercenaries who have not really participated in the front line of infiltration operations, and they have been injured in the previous battle, if they can really arrive, the help provided is better than nothing.

The real reinforcements were the two warriors, one of whom was a good-looking girl who did not look like a mercenary at all, and it could be guessed that this girl was probably Eronica's best friend or admirer; The killing aura of the other warrior is far superior to that of the two female warriors, an experienced mercenary in his forties, although he may not be as strong as Eronica in strength, but he can even surpass the current mercenary girl in terms of experience and actual combat.

As for the kobolds, a dozen of them had fallen in the battle just now, and there were five or six strong kobolds beside the kobold mage, that is, there were only thirty enemies left - although this number was still several times that of the mercenaries, but the enemies were only a few kobolds...... Don't be afraid. The only thing to worry about is the strong, unspoken kobold guard beside the kobold mage.

Those guys really don't look like kobolds...... Whether it's okay or not, it's the final variable.

The little mage narrowed his eyes slightly.
