Chapter 117: The Invisible Killer
"Who? Who is going to kill us? Vanessa's hand struggled to lift to the place of the amulet, pretending to be grasping at her neck to breathe, "Mercy." Please let me know the name of the enemy before I die! โ
"Well, remember, it was the great enchantment mage Yesengren who killed you." The magician scoffed, "When you become a mass of minced flesh mixed with blood and bonesโah! โ
The magician's preaching was interrupted by a strange cry of his own, and then the blazing flames in front of him vanished along with the illusion of Yesengren, and with it the barrier that bound Vanessa, and the princess fell to the ground, gulping in the fresh air.
What happened?
Hmph, you owe me a favor again. Trent's voice rang in his head again.
Where did you just go? Vanessa coughed loudly to hide her displeasure.
Go and it's raining, you idiot.
Vanessa was scolded stupidly by the magician, but after thinking about it, Yesengren appeared in the form of a flame, and he had his own enchantment magic, oil could not be splashed, arrows could not hurt, and I am afraid that only rain could penetrate his protective layer and extinguish his invincible arrogance.
Well done! The princess raised her thumb approvingly. Now, I'm going to Andy.
It's useless to look for him, you'll have to go and rendezvous with Reina! Trent yelled in exasperation. I've given him more than a dozen kinds of magic, and there's always one that will help you catch that enchantment mage! The time for the spider venom to pass is almost up, and I can't stay longer, or your brain will be dumber than it is now. Let's go.
What the? Vanessa subconsciously covered her head, Venom! Are you kidding me? Ten thousand curses passed before the princess's eyes, and then, she found that Trent had disappeared from her mind, withdrew, and was gone, anyway, and Vanessa could feel herself alone in her brain.
Vanessa stood there with a smile in her eyes, imagining the old magician's funny appearance for fear of being scolded, and finally shook her head and began to walk in the direction of Trent. He was right, Andy's abilities were limited, and he hated Horst and his gang deeply, so he might not be able to pass on the word to them according to his own wishes, so he should take care of the present and set his eyes on Yesengren, if he could get his magic help, his mercenary group's combat power would be unstoppable.
****************
In reality, Yesengren looks much thinner than in the flames. He wore a splendid silk robe, pale red and white gold, and was very well tailored, trying to hide his diminutive stature. The sorcerer's gray hair was neatly clinging to his towering sideburns, and the skin on his cheeks and chin was loose, accentuating the deep eye sockets and cheekbones that almost pierced his face.
This guy is as skinny as a toothpick. What emptied him? Vanessa hid under the ground behind a eucalyptus tree and watched secretly.
Three fire control mages and one enchantment mage were cursing loudly at the ghost weather in the Valley of Flames, yes, they had never seen rain early in the morning, and they concluded that there were weather manipulators in the opposing camp, so the fireball and burst spells were temporarily suspended, and they stopped to study the next battle plan, and the sergeants of Osser got a moment of respite.
This sudden rainstorm drenched the magician and his allies, Vanessa took the opportunity to look at them, the gang looked disorganized, wearing everything, some did not even wear a decent shirt, but among them there were hunters and mercenaries in soft armor, which meant more trouble, Yesengren would not come to Osser's ballast on a whim, it must have been his master who asked him to do so, and the commander who was injured by Brant's magic just now did not even have the most basic magical protection, It shows that he is just a small role, temporarily hired to fill the number of stragglers, the person who is really hiding behind the scenes has not yet appeared, the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, no wonder this battle is fought so passively.
Gotta find a way to lure him out.
The commotion happened so suddenly, a rain of blood sprinkled on the soil overhead, bringing warm blood, Vanessa's eyes widened as one of the fire control mages who had been cursing suddenly fell to the ground diagonally - his head was split, his fluffy and dashing brown curls were torn wide, and the bones were turned on the side of his cheeks, revealing the white flowers inside.
Then came the second, the fire mage in the sumptuous robe saw a sharp sword on his stomach, and from his abdomen came an unbearable pain of being pierced. He watched as the sword poked itself in half, crimson blood trickling down the blade, and there was no doubt that his satin robe was ruined.
Before that, Vanessa saw the sword, and it bounced off the dead man's waist and cut his master in half, needless to say, it was Reina's doing, my good archer, oh no, stop, you have to stay alive. But the third man's magic gesture was interrupted in mid-air, and his last spell became a wail stuck in his throat, and the cold blade protruded from the back of his neck as if an iron tongue had grown.
In the blink of an eye, Reina had already eliminated three low-level mages. Neat.
Vanessa looked at Yesengren's astonished eyes and knew he was going to use his magic, "No! She loosened the earth amulet, exposing herself to the enemy's camp. Look here! You shrouded corpse! โ
Yesengren's face twisted, he could hardly believe that this girl would come here to find her death, and all the arrows immediately pointed at Vanessa
