Chapter 22: The reinforcements turned out to be skeleton soldiers
The rain that connected the heavens and the earth did not stop, first a white round object emerged from the water, and then two leaking holes appeared, and I put half of my head out of the water, carefully observing the situation around me. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although I feel that such a move is completely inconsistent with my majesty as an absolute powerhouse, and it will also damage my image in the reader's mind as the protagonist of the novel, but if you want to laugh, just laugh, the most important thing now is to save your life, after all, a month ago I was just an ordinary human being. Well, that's right, the big husband can bend and stretch!
I prayed in my heart that the monster wasn't searching for me, and that it was better to have forgotten about me, although it was a bit difficult for it to forget immediately if it was still fighting a few seconds ago, but there is no such thing as amnesia in the world, let alone its head injury so badly.
In this way, I looked around with apprehension, and then I saw what I saw that made me regain the posture of a king, and I jumped out of the water without fear, and there was a familiar scene not far away, which was a huge broken corpse.
The death of the monster was confirmed through life detection.
Strange, before falling into the water, I saw that it activated the magic divine light, did it not succeed, or did it die halfway through? But no matter what, I still defeated Warcraft, and sure enough, I was invincible. In fact, I already knew this result, the scene that poked my head out of the water just now was just acting, yes, just acting, cough cough, that's it!
So let's go back now, I was about to use the flying magic to leave the lake, and suddenly I got entangled in something on my feet, thinking that it should be aquatic plants or something, so I didn't pay much attention to it, but when my feet were completely out of the water, the things on my feet surprised me.
At first, I thought it was a strangely shaped root, until one of the branches slowly moved, and then all the branches that had been holding me like a hand moved, and the tips of each branch opened their eyes. It wasn't a branch at all, it was a head, and it wasn't a tree root wrapped around my feet, but some living creature.
Wait, why does this creature look so familiar.
I stared at it with empty eyes, and the creature tilted its head and looked at me with eighteen eyes, although it was much smaller, but that body, that plesiosaur-like nine heads were exactly the same as the monster that I had just fought against.
It's a young monster!
I looked back at the corpse of the beast, and in the center of the corpse there was indeed something like a broken eggshell floating on the water. I see, I finally got it!
The reason why the monster has endured so many of my magical attacks and has not moved its body is to protect this young beast, and in the end, the healing magic it used all its life to launch was not to save itself but to save this young beast.
This is the greatness of mother's love. But are Warcraft also divided into men and women? So what is the big body going to do? Images of various creatures reproducing come to mind. stopοΌ That's not the point!
It seems that the monsters attacked the canyon of the goatmen in search of a place to hatch the young beasts. I'm sorry, little monster! I picked up the young beast from my feet, the size of an adult Persian cat, and wrapped its head intimately around my arm with a childish cry.
Wait, wait, little monster, are you mistaken, I am your mother (father) enemy, you are recognizing a thief as your father (mother)!
Maybe it's because I just squeezed through the eggshell and used too much physical strength, but the little monster's head wrapped around my arm didn't move, and it seemed to be asleep, so it still looks pretty cute. But shouldn't a basilisk with nine heads be terrifying? Could it be that because he became a skeleton soldier, his aesthetic has also changed?
Ah, really, such a small fellow, if he is released, he should not live long, since I caused such a tragedy, I should take some responsibility, so I should keep it by my side first, and then release it when it is strong enough.
I held the little monster to my chest and made a decision.
The poison formed by the magic of the monster began to slowly dissipate, and since I didn't know if the little monster could resist the poisonous mist, I applied anti-poison magic to it.
Imagining Acereth seeing my adoring expression couldn't help but make my non-existent eyebrows curl up as well, and unconsciously speed up the flight.
Landing on the edge of the poisonous mist, a tragic scene appeared in front of him. There were four corpses on the ground, three bloody goat-man elite warriors and one human with a different head. Aceress was covered in wounds at the moment, and a tall, heavily armed human was about to throw a fatal punch at it. And at a certain distance from the tall human, there is also a human with a smile on his face, and a human in a white robe.
Holding the little monster with one hand, I stretched my other hand forward.
"Chant of Multiple Magic", "Third Order Dark Magic - Demon Spear"
With the activation of the magic, the summoned dark power turned into seven death spears that emitted the wails of hell in front of him, and flew towards the tall human. Because the armor on his body looks quite strong, I specially used the "Multi-Magic Chant" to increase the number of demon spears that originally had only one to seven. But it seems that I'm too worried.,That human was actually penetrated at once.,I knew I wouldn't use "multiple magic chanting".,You must know that my magic power has only recovered less than one-tenth of my current power.,It's a very distressing thing to waste mana!
Aceles let out a roar that sounded like he wasn't too weak to die, so I was relieved.
"Primary Treatment", "Primary Recovery"
In order to reduce the consumption of mana, I cast two first-level healing spells on Aceles, although they are first-class, but the effect of the magic is greatly enhanced due to the strong ability of the caster, who is also me.
Seeing Ace Resce get back on his feet, I communicated with my heart and said, "Are you alright?" What's going on? β
"We were waiting for you, but suddenly we were attacked by humans, have you already defeated the Warcraft? What do you have in your hand? β
"Ah, that's a long story, let's wait until we've repelled the humans."
"Lord Kilgaru, the human with the dagger was handed over to me, and he killed my men!" Essles' voice sounded angry, staring straight at a slender man with a dagger not far away, but the man still had a relaxed smile on his face, but that smile always gave people a sense of danger for some reason.
"I see, be careful, I'll deal with that robed human." I looked straight ahead, but I met the gaze of the man in white.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Ashalon's massive body slammed to the ground, and with a low metallic thud, the ground shattered and cracked into fine pieces of dirt. The sight was clearly unexpected by the two companions, and Dillock and Rolda took a battle stance, looking warily ahead.
Mysterious reinforcements emerge from behind the thick fog.
However, the figure that appeared in front of them surprised the two of them.
Dirock turned his face to look at Rolla on the side, his expression full of doubt.
"Hey, hey, Rolla, do you see the same as me? Why do I think I saw a skeleton soldier with a branch on his hand? β
"It's a skeleton soldier indeed, this is a trick to distract us, the real enemy should still be hidden behind," Rolda maintained a vigilant posture and made a more reasonable guess, and then his gaze penetrated the skeleton soldier's slender body and fell into the fog behind it, "Since we have already made a move, let's show up!" β
"Ah, I'm sorry, I know it's hard to believe, but if you think there's anyone else, you're going to be disappointed," the skeleton shrugged, a hint of embarrassment coming from his toothless mouth.
"Is it normal for skeletons and skeletons to be able to speak? Am I under psychic magic? Dillock scratched his head with the dagger in his hand, the sight in front of him was so strange that he wondered if he had unknowingly fallen under some kind of magic.
In normal times, when Di Lock said that the skeleton soldier could speak, Rolda would laugh and tell him that he must have been under spiritual magic, but at this moment, even he heard it, and the skeleton soldier in front of him did speak. Although he felt that he could not be magical, for the sake of prudence, Rolda still cast a magic spell on himself and Delok to "see through", and the answer was that there was nothing abnormal in the physical state of the two. He then cast "Magical Perception" on the skeleton soldier, and there was only a faint magic reaction around the skeleton soldier, so it was impossible to use transformation magic to disguise it.
Skeleton soldiers, which are supposed to be low-level undead summoned by dark magic, are very weak, but as long as there are corpses, they can summon a lot at once, so they are very suitable for the implementation of crowd tactics. However, skeletons summoned by magic are unconscious, and are completely unable to speak. Although there are also high-level undead people with a certain degree of self-awareness, such as the Archmage of the Dead, the Terror Lord, etc., the skeleton in front of him is just the most ordinary skeleton soldier in terms of appearance and the magic power emanating from it.
"It's really strange, it's likely that the opponent is deliberately confusing us, but I really hope that this skeleton soldier is really speaking, and if such a rare variety is brought to the monster market, it may be able to sell for a sky-high price," although the self-aware skeleton soldier made Rolla a little worried, but since the results of the magic perception showed that it was not very powerful, he decided to put aside the worries in his heart.
"Sky-high? This pile of rotten bones is going to be so valuable, Rolda, don't you break it," Hearing the word sky-high price, Di Lock carefully looked at the skeleton soldier in front of him with a look of appreciation, showing a greedy expression.
"Monster Market? Is it possible to trade monsters in this world? I've got a new piece of information," the skeleton soldier touched his chin with his slender hand bones, and fell into a state of self-talk.
"It is unforgivable that a lowly immortal dares to imitate the movements of a human being," Seeing the skeleton soldier showing a thoughtful look, Rolda, who had been calmly watching the battle from the beginning just now, felt inexplicable anger in his heart. Indeed, for Rolda, who practiced the skills of a priest and believed in the Sage of Light, Arlans, the undead were an alien that should not exist, but such an alien actually showed human-like movements, which was a slander against the Holy Light, a serious provocation to the gods, and such a sin was absolutely unforgivable.
"I'll deal with this skeleton, Dilllock, you go deal with that goatman," Rolda said to his companion in a commanding tone, waving the short-handled staff in his hand.
"Aha, glad!" Dillock cooperatively put his hand on his chest and looked at the goatman who was back on his feet.
