8. Fierce Fight (continued)
The old witch's high-pitched scream before dying was like throwing a pebble into a silent water, causing ripples on the mirror-like surface of the lake. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The sound passed through the decks, and on this quiet night, the super penetrating force woke almost everyone on the airship, and the noise in the corridors was like a mess of fried beans, and many people were awakened in their sleep, rushed out of their cabins, and asked around the corridors to find out what was going on.
The old witch's voice was so harsh that even if the north wind whistled, it couldn't suppress the shrill howl.
I gasped softly, carrying the Shura battle axe in my hand, and the killing intent in my heart filled my entire body, as if I had an urge to vent outward.
Without any hesitation, I silently walked over to the two crew guards, who were in a deep sleep, I raised the axe, and the axe fell in my hand, and cut off the heads of the two men cleanly, and the red blood poured out along the necks of Qi Brush, and the two guards rolled down their heads with a sweet smile, as if they had just had a very wonderful dream.
At this time, the door of the bedroom was pushed open by a snow-white round hand, and a beautiful head poked its head out, looking at the blood-stained living room with horrified eyes, the world of Sha's eyes was subverted at this moment, it was still so calm just a moment ago, the mean old witch was still making things difficult for herself because of a glass of water, but now the old woman who made Sophie seriously injured by a look in front of her face fell to the floor with her head in a different place.
I was squatting at the door of the bedroom, blood dripping from the Shura axe in my hand, and when I looked up at Sha Aili, she turned pale with fright from my eyes, and slammed the door shut.
Ruka, the Minotaur, was dumbfounded when he saw this scene, and asked very puzzledly, "Jijia, didn't you say that we are here to save people?"
In the face of this scene, I was also a little embarrassed, but fortunately, Moraya did not take the opportunity to ridicule me, but slightly tidied up the collar of the neat Calemian magic long pat, put on a cold face with a calm expression, exhaled deeply, walked straight to the door with a slight pace, opened the door and went out, and asked the headless flies in the corridors outside with a calm and cold expression, "What happened?"
"Oh, Your Excellency the Magician, we seem to hear someone screaming, and we are looking for where the voice came from!" one of them replied respectfully, standing in the hallway.
"Humph!" Moraya just snorted coldly, and the noise in the hallway immediately became much quieter.
Moraya then calmly turned back to the room, the door closing with a crisp sound.
The guests in the hallway felt a lightness in their chests, like a stone taken away from their chests, and the man who had just answered Moraya's question let out a long breath, and for a moment he was a little dazed, a little confused why he had been so weak in those few seconds.
Ruka and I were dumbfounded as Moraya turned around and returned to the room as usual, on the wooden wall opposite the door of the room, there was a big hole in the wooden wall that was blowing cold wind, it was just now that the Minotaur Ruka used brute force to knock it open at the most critical time, and there was a thick smell of blood in the room, I didn't expect Moraya to walk out casually, put on a cold face that had nothing to do with me, said a simple word to the corridor, and then returned to the room arrogantly.
The moment the hatch closed, Moraya's tense face suddenly fell, patted her chest repeatedly, exhaled deeply, and then said to me anxiously: "Why are you still stunned, before those rebels find out, go and see how Princess Sha is doing, when they get to the deck, they will definitely find it along the hole in the wall, and then they will not be able to hide it!"
"It's impossible to hide it for so long, if something happens on the ship, they will come up here to check it out as soon as possible. "I hung the Shura axe on my belt and rubbed my whole body vigorously, my body felt like I had been pricked by needles, and the nervous feeling in my heart relaxed, and my whole body felt like I had been hit by a wild bison, and the bones in my body seemed to fall apart.
It's just that while my whole body is in great pain, the power of the blood veins in my body is also fully activated, and the self-healing ability is quickly repairing the mechanism of my whole body.
Seeing me in such pain, Ya leaned on the hatch and asked worriedly, "Jia, are you injured?"
"It's okay, I've just been affected by the 'Silence Technique', and there is some slight magic backlash, and you also know that my mental power is stronger than that of ordinary magicians, so it's not in the way!" I patted my chest with a pretended relaxation, saying that I was okay to reassure Ya.
Yahu stared at me suspiciously, watching me unleash a 'hydrotherapy technique' on myself, before he said with a soothing expression: "I'm going to see Princess Sha, she may have been scared by you just now." ”
At this time, Ya walked towards Sha Ali's room.
I sat on the sofa and said to Ya, "Ya, you would never have thought that the assistant magician of our water magic class, Ms. Sophie, is also in the bedroom!"
"Hah!" Ya looked back at me in surprise as her mouth widened.
Then her eyes lit up, as if she suddenly realized, and said: "No wonder she asked me to go back to the imperial capital a few days ago, at that time I thought she was making fun of the two of us, thinking that she was joking with me, I didn't believe her words at all, it turned out that she invited me to go to the imperial capital together, it turned out that she was serious, I didn't expect her to take the same airship with us, return to the imperial capital, find out that we will be together, and there is a good ...... to take care of"
"Teacher Sophie has been injured a bit, the magic elements in her body are very unstable, it seems that she has also been secretly injured by the magic backlash, but just now I gave her a bottle of spiritual power potion, it should be fine, Ruka and I are here to stay, we are ready to leave here at any time!" I said to Moraya, time can be said to be quite precious to us, I don't know how long Ruka and I can stay here, and we will face the Sequoia rebels on the whole ship.
"Okay, I'll go see how Sophie is doing!" Moraya looked even more anxious when she heard that Sophie was injured, and couldn't wait to go to the bedroom.
After all, Ya and Sophie have spent three years together in the teacher's dormitory at the Academy of Magic, and the two of them have gone from ordinary friends to close friends.
Moraya no longer cared about any etiquette, stood at the door of the bedroom, and only said to Sha Aili inside the door: "Princess Sha, I'm in, I'm Moraya!"
"Moraya, ah, is it really you? Why are you here, the person who was just outside, is it your companion? The last time I saved me, I didn't have time to thank you, Grandpa Moraise always refused to reveal your whereabouts, why are you on this boat?" The bedroom door was pushed open again, and the innocent girl in a silk pajama appeared again, and her white face showed the surprise of an unexpected encounter.
Like a big sister, Ya reached out and gently stroked Princess Sha's long silky hair, and then said to her, "Uh...... That's a long story, can I go and see Sophie's injuries?"
Ya knew that this was not a good time to catch up with Sha Aili, so she immediately talked about something more important, as a wood magician, Ya has a more powerful healing spell 'healing technique' than me.
"Do you know Sophie?" asked Sha, a little dumbfounded, a little confused.
"During this time, Sophie and I have been living at the Academy of War Magic in El City, and we are very good friends!" Ya explained briefly to Sha Ali.
"You've been staying in the North, and you're still living in El City, so why don't you come to Sloitt City to find me?"
The corners of Moraya's mouth twitched slightly, and she said to Sha Ali with a smile: "I don't want to disturb your life, besides, I am also living well, the person I love lives there, of course I have to stay there and always be by his side!"
"You're so happy!" said Sha Ali with sincere envy, and then said to Ya, "Sophie has been unconscious since she was injured by the sorceress outside, probably because of the magic backlash, but now she looks much better!"
As Ya and Sha Ali spoke, their figures disappeared into the bedroom doorway.
I sat on the couch, arranged the magic scroll in my hand, carefully slammed a "New Frost Star" magic scroll into the beast trap, then recited a spell to unlock the magic lock of the scroll, tied a barely visible ice spider silk to the reed of the beast clip, and then went to the hole in the wooden wall that Ruka had broken, and carefully installed the magic trap expertly on the wooden wall.
This high-level magic scroll requires the magician to unlock the magic lock with a spell, and after chanting the magic spell, the magic scroll still needs to be unfolded to release powerful magic.
I've become incredibly skilled at setting up this kind of magic trap, and in the past two years, almost every year before winter comes, I've spent a lot of energy drawing a large number of 'Frost Nova' magic scrolls, and then working with Moraya, Ruka, In the past two years, we have hunted more than 400 barbarians by a mysterious falcon team, and now they live as slaves in the Xinliu Valley carrying stones.
It can be said that in the past two years, I have been thinking about how to make these exquisite magic traps even more refined.
Ruka blinked and saw that I had set two magic traps on the way back to the deck, and found that our retreat was not to the outer deck of the airship, so he crouched aside, holding a huge double-edged axe in his arms, looked at me with a look of incomprehension, and asked quietly, "Jia, aren't we going to rush out?"
Seeing that the crew had appeared on the deck, my heart tightened, I am afraid that the secret here is not easy to continue to hide, those Red Mountain rebels disguised crew members are sniffing around like mad dogs, I have prepared the long barrel of the silver shotgun in my hand, this gun has been worn out very much, the rifling inside the barrel has been smoothed, but I am used to it.
I blinked and said to Ruka the Minotaur, "Why rush out, there will be more enemies on the deck outside, our current enemy is a whole ship of rebels, of course it is more suitable to stay in the cabin and fight guerrilla warfare with them!"
The wind on the deck was very strong, and under the cover of night, even if a large hole was punched in the wall on this side, these rebel sailors still did not notice it at first, and they focused their search on finding the source of the howling sound, and only a few crew members on duty would stand in the cold wind in the dead night.
The Minotaur Ruka is most worried about our safety, of course, his idea is even simpler, as long as I open the portal of Xinliu Valley, everyone hides in it, and Ya and I leave the airship directly, even if it is at a height of several thousand meters, it is not too difficult for the two magicians to escape from the airship.
What the Minotaur was worried about was, of course, the retreat of Ya and me, and only by reaching the deck could we easily leave the airship. So he said to me, "But then...... Wouldn't we have no way out?"
I smiled faintly and asked him, "When we get to the deck, do we have a way out?"
Sure enough, as I expected, Ruka the Minotaur said, "At least you and Molaya can leave the airship in a magic sweep!"
The crew on deck was acting out a wonderful drama, and some people were running through the view, but they didn't notice that a large hole had been knocked into the wall.
I continued, "And then, what about you? What about the two people in the room? One magic sweep can't carry four people!"
The Minotaur Ruka said lightly: "As long as you leave safely, we can hide in the underground cave!"
This is my most common method of escape on the outskirts of El City, but at that time our team was in the middle of nowhere, and with no one else around, no one would know my secret.
I lowered my voice and whispered in Ruka, the Minotaur, "If that secret is known, I will be hunted down to death by even more powerful and greedy men!"
Ruka, the minotaur, heard me say so badly, and quickly kept silent.
I added, "At least I can't do that in front of people!"
The Minotaur Ruka nodded approvingly to me as if he had suddenly opened his mind, and I released the four-series stone drum totem, the stone drum totem surrounded my body, and the skin of the Minotaur Ruka around me quickly petrified.
Almost at the same time, the crews of the airship rushed to the deck, and found a large hole in the wall of the cabin, and they rushed towards us in the midst of a cacophony of shouting for their companions.
Dressed in simple iron armor, Ruka carried his double-bladed axe in one hand, stepping over the silk threads of magical traps that were barely visible on the ground, blocking his strong body through the gaps in the wooden wall.
Behind him, I crouched on the floor with my silver shotgun, muzzle aimed at the rebel crew member who was desperately rushing forward with his scimitar raised.
"Bang!"
The long silver shotgun in his hand made a crisp sound, and a dark red line of fire went out along the hole in the wall, knocking down the rebel crew who rushed to the front.
