Chapter 17 Fate hangs by a thread

There is a faint mist in the forest that has not yet dissipated, and there are towering trees that seem to be in the sky, and there are also some trunks and branches that send out rhizomes from the air to the ground, gradually thickening, forming a strange landscape of a single tree into a forest. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "Whew, whew......" Bibo gasped and kept walking through the woods, with arrows whizzing past him from time to time. This is over, Bibo's heart is flustered, he specifically looks for those densely populated places, and keeps blocking the branches with his hands, some of which scratch his face, leaving a few blood marks.

The attackers chased more and more closely, Bibo still held the soldier's short bow in his hand, and there were about a dozen arrows in the quiver hanging from his waist, he felt out an arrow, hid behind a rock that appeared in front of him, pulled the bowstring, Bibo stabilized his breath, aimed at the attacker swordsman who rushed to the front, continued to attach his concentration to the arrow, and then shot suddenly, in recent days, he got along with the soldiers of Rust day and night, everyone became more and more familiar, and they also went to hunt some game together in the resting space, So Bibo's archery skills also improved under their guidance.

A red light illuminated the dark forest, and instantly hit one of the attackers of a large swordsman, he wailed that the power of the arrow penetrated, took a few steps back and fell to the ground, instantly no breath, the attackers stopped, quickly hid, the crossbowmen also began to fight back, non-stop shooting, the arrows of the ordinary crossbow are short and sharp, the powerful crossbow is equipped with this kind of arrow, not only is the power greater, but also because of the loud sound to the opponent psychological pressure and panic, can deter the opponent. Bibo spotted the gap in the crossbow's shot and fired another blast of red lightning, this time through the head of one of the crossbowmen.

"Stop shooting!" A voice came from the other side, "Listen! Kid from the town of Kavos! ”

Sure enough, it was for himself, Bibo didn't say anything, quietly continued to draw out the arrow, and carried out two consecutive attachments and attacks of concentration in a short period of time, making him feel tired, and even a little dizzy, he remembered that Agnes told him that there were many blessing spells, and he was really annoyed that Taiban didn't teach him too much at that time, otherwise he would be so embarrassed at this time.

"Give up resistance, go back with us, we adults just want to cooperate with you, in the town, you have already seen his power, don't go against the will of our adults!" The other man continued to shout, "You must know that you are making enemies of the whole kingdom!" ”

It was clear to Bibo that the Lord that the attacker was talking about should be the black-robed mage he met when he returned to the surface from the pit, he subdued Taiban with evil power and kidnapped Agnes, it seems that he and Ser Jerome already know their identities more or less, or these attackers simply came for the Flaming Stone. On the other hand, Taiban and Agnes should be out of danger and may have returned to Eagle City.

Thinking of this, Bibo felt a little comforted in his heart, so he shot another ordinary arrow, and this time, it didn't hit any target. The assailant stopped shouting, and Bibo poked his head out slightly, only to see that the enemy was slowly moving towards him again. The swordsmen were still cautiously hiding behind the round shield, but because of the power they had just seen through the round shield, their steps were a little hesitant, and the crossbowmen also cowered behind the trees, aiming at the hiding place of the bibo, and if they noticed any movement, they would immediately attract sharp arrows.

What to do, Bibo looked around, in this dense jungle, except for non-stop running and hiding, there seems to be no way to get out of danger, it is still early, the other party has a large number of people, I am afraid that it will not be able to dodge, Bibo immediately raised his hand, pulled out three arrows, held his breath and concentrated, the additional effect of this concentration was greatly enhanced, three red lightning bolts attacked instantly, and one of the people who was hit let out a miserable shout, and the other party's footsteps stopped again, and hurriedly found a place to avoid the next attack.

At this time, Bibo was already exhausted, he staggered away, and continued to run deep into the jungle, hoping that this blow could buy him a little more time, with the attitude of trying it out, Bibo forcibly concentrated his energy, superimposed with his consciousness, and attached it to the three arrows, he had not done this, but the effect was indeed surprisingly effective, not only increased in power, but also had a particularly shocking effect. Sure enough, the attackers didn't follow up quickly, of course, this was only temporary, and Bibo knew this very well in his heart, and he was still in crisis.

However, fortunately, Sureni and the others are safe, but I don't know if there will be a chance to meet again, and if there will be a chance to go to the Rust Defense Station. Since getting the Flame Stone, the things he encountered have become more and more strange and twisted, Sam and his relatives in the town have lost their lives, Taiban and Agnes have also encountered danger, the soldiers of Rust almost died just now, in fact, two soldiers have died here, and they can no longer get out of the Secret Whisper Forest, and they are now in a crisis, it can really be said that their fate is hanging by a thread, if they are caught, not only will the holy relics fall into the hands of the Leo family, but they will also be tortured and destroyed by the blood of the Lanos family, and even die.

was running and hiding, panicking, suddenly Bibo found a blue-white light flashing in front of him, and instantly flew towards the attacker behind him, Bibo was surprised, what is going on? Who launched the attack at this time? The attackers behind were caught off guard and stopped in a hurry, and Bibo could hear their doubtful voices, "Hide quickly, how is this possible?" "Didn't the adults say it's just a hillbilly kid? How can it be a battle mage? "Shut up, he's not a battle mage, the power of concentration is attached to the weapon instead of the human body several times in a row, he's a demon warrior!" "But this one is obviously a magic attack! He has helpers!! ”

"Who is it? Come out and die! Dare to stand up to us! ”

Bibo turned around, but everywhere he looked, there was no one in sight, and only the slight sound of wind answered them. After a while, the cacophony of the attackers subsided, and Bibo peeked behind the trees and saw that the attackers had indeed receded. "Could it be like this?" Bibo couldn't believe it, "Who's there?" He was also desperate to know who had cast the spell.

"Shh A voice came from behind him, and instantly covered Bibo's mouth, "Don't make a sound, boy from the town of Cavos!" Follow me quietly! With that, he let go of his cold hand.

Turning around, Bibo saw a face he couldn't have dreamed of, she was really an elf, a perfect face, long silver-white hair tied behind her head, revealing pointed ears, pale blue eyes that seemed to glow dimly, holding a white longbow, a whole row of slender arrows in the quiver behind her back, and a delicate dagger at her waist, a bit like a short sword for humans, but a little wider. As mentioned in all the legends that Bibo had heard, she was indeed a beautiful woman, with a slender body and long legs.

"You ...... just now" Before Bibo could finish asking, the female elf interrupted him, "Follow me!" ”

Her steps were light, but fast, Bibo followed her with great difficulty, continuing to walk through the woods, the elf jumped over the obstacle lightly, her pointed ears kept shaking, sometimes she would signal Bibo to stop, and then listen carefully, and then wave her hand, let Bibo follow her speed as soon as possible, and after a while, they came to a stream, "Come, take my hand!" ”

Surprised, Bibo grabbed her cold hand in his own, a hand that barely had any temperature, soft and smooth, but firm and strong. Suddenly, Bibo found himself following the elf's leap and was already on top of a cedar tree across the stream.

"Well, even the best hunter in you humans can only track it here." The elf said calmly, "Unless you humans can use our way." ”

"It's incredible!" Bibo exclaimed, it was truly an amazing experience, and the body was light as if there was no weight.

Next, they jumped on the treetops, and unlike the southern woodlands east of the town of Kavos that Bibo was familiar with, it was a primeval forest with few low shrubs, all towering ancient trunks that seemed to have existed for hundreds of years. The branches of the trees were constantly intertwined, and the flourishing branches and leaves stretched out like black clouds, almost obscuring the sky. They rested on a huge black pine, its bark dark green, its thick, strangely shaped branches coiling like the claws of a dragon. The breeze passed, and the branches and leaves rattled, like the wheezing of a dragon.

Bibo didn't have to make any effort, and he didn't have to worry about falling, the elf didn't look at him, just kept adjusting the direction, and continued to jump in the treetops of the forest, the sky had become dim, Bibo could see that they were heading north, and the outline of the northern mountains could be vaguely seen on the horizon.

After a long time, the elf took him to the ground, the darkness had surrounded the whole forest, Bibo sat down on the ground, after letting go of the elf's hand, he suddenly felt tired, he looked at the elf who was still calm, and said, "Beautiful elf lady, thank you for everything you have done for me, thank you for saving me!" Can you tell me your name and how I can help you? It may seem like I'm useless at all, but I want to thank you a lot. ”

"Eun, you can call me Luna, this is the name of my continental lingua franca," the female elf smiled, "If it's the name of our elf, I'm sure you won't be able to remember it, haha, by the way, no thanks!" ”

"Luna, nice to meet you! My name is Bibo, thank you very much, but you don't happen to be passing by, see me pitiful so you chose to save my life! Bibo asked in surprise.

"No, no, I'm ordered to wait for you there!" Luna shook her head, arranging her shawl as she rearranged it, and Bibo's eyes widened, and she could only vaguely see the outline of the elf's blue-blue tight-fitting outfit in the twilight.

"Who's that? Who told you to wait for me? Anyway, you tell me where the Rust defense is? I'm going to find my companions! ”

? "No, I can't tell you!" The female elf tilted her head and looked at Bibo, "Also, you can't go anywhere!" My mission is not done yet! ”
