Chapter 328: Fishman
Thea's hand finally touched the stain on the ground. She put the two fingers she touched under her nose and sniffed lightly. The pungent smell choked on her. It tastes really bad, a bit like vomit mixed with inferior shochu sausage sashimi.
It's disgusting!
Thea's hand shrank like an electric shock, but the slippery and smell of the thing had already stained her fingers, and the uncomfortable sensation made her frown.
This is...... Something she had seen a long, long time ago. What is it? Where did she see her?
Sia struggled to think about it, and because of the mind control just now, her already uncomfortable brain ached faintly.
Oh...... By the way, it's the Wild West.
At the time, she found it in the warehouse of the Seaside Patrol. As soon as she opened the lid, Bolval, who smelled the smell, immediately snatched it from his hand and warned her with a serious face: "Don't move! This one is Fishman Fruit Syrup. ”
"Fish-man pulp? What is that? ”
"Bait for catching fishmen."
"Yikes! Such a disgusting taste. I can't stand it when I smell it. Fishman actually likes it? ”
"It's disgusting, but its appeal to fish-people is unmatched. It's like a shark smells blood. Once this thing is in the water, the fish-people who smell it will rush to it. It will never be used until the fish-man season is infested, or until the patrol is not fully prepared. It's a particularly dangerous item, so be careful not to get it on you, otherwise it will be too dangerous to attract fishmen. ”
"I don't want to touch such a disgusting smell! Bolval, come with me ......"
The flood of memories caused Thea's pupils to shrink sharply. There was no time to be sentimental, and after she realized the purpose of this thing, there was a sharp whistling sound like a murmur in her ears like an alarm warning her.
Thea suddenly understood what was going on.
Fishman!
Thea hurriedly stood up, face.
The lake, illuminated by the moonlight, was flooded with particularly strange and violent waves, not far from the shore. She originally thought it was just an ordinary high tide, but now there is another mystery. The shallow part of the lake rises and falls with the waves, and it is already possible to have a flowery top fin on the head. Xia was so shocked that she didn't even have time to wipe her hands before she ran in the opposite direction of the lake. However, the lower skirt washed by the lake looked so heavy at the moment. She couldn't help but curse secretly.
Fishmen are the best warriors in the water, but once they land, these little men who are only half a man tall will definitely fight on land. Perhaps the combat effectiveness of a single individual is not as good as that of humans, but the hunting of fishmen has always been a group action. This is also the reason why humans should never act alone in places infested with fish-people.
And the groove cake is that Shia is now only one person.
Moreover, she was already being caught up by the fish-people. She could even hear the gurgling sound coming out of the mouth of the fish-man who had left the water.
A harpoon grazed her arm and flew past. Even a slight touch made Thea stumble.
There's no way to escape.
"Mantra? Shield. ”
Thea took out her staff and quickly put on a shield for herself. After realizing that he has fallen into the range of the fish-man's attack. She stopped decisively and turned her back to the crowd.
However, even though she was mentally prepared, actually turning around and facing the scene in front of her still made her scalp tingle. At a glance. All in front of me were a patch of colorful top fins - there were too many fish-people.
Sia bit her lip and placed her staff across her body, her eyes narrowing slightly, and she quickly calculated how many chances she could win. She knew in her heart that her ability was to be good at support, and it might be okay to protect herself, but she couldn't kill such a large group of fishmen.
Running away is already unlikely. And, if she leaves here now, where will she go? Wouldn't it be even worse if Berval had come and couldn't find her. And...... If she went in the direction of the Tower of Azura, it would not be a good thing for her that the mutiny of the fishmen here had attracted the attention of the soldiers.
It should be fine until Salolsen brings Bolval along.
In a blink of mind, Xia had already made up her mind, so she made up her mind decisively.
Growing up in the Wild West, Sia had never faced a fish-man at the time, but she had heard countless ways to deal with them since she was a child. There was even a time. Her maid also gave her a bedtime story about a hundred ways to die a fish-man.
"Sacred Fire!"
The ruby on the golden staff of blessing emitted a burst of bright light, and the white sacred fire fell on the fish-man's body in several clumps.
Fire is the most hated thing for the fish-people, although ordinary fire can't hurt them.
The skin of the fish-man is always slippery and wet due to long-term immersion in water. But the Divine Fire is their nemesis, and this essence is that the flame of divine power touches the fish-man like dry wood. The fish-men ignited by the sacred fire let out a sharp chirp and fell to the ground and rolled desperately. The fall of the fish-men in the front row seemed to be dominoes. The fish-man behind him also tripped before he had time to react, or stepped directly on his companion's body, but this also made the footsteps of the fish-man rushing up behind a little sluggish.
"Hey, there's still two more moments." Luo Jiali of the play said lazily. "It's not in vain that I attracted all those fish people."
Willow still seemed a little dissatisfied. She pondered and said, "I don't think there are enough fishmen here...... Does this cause the effect of Spell Rampage? ”
"Let me go and stab her now, or it's all over. What are you going to do with all that twists and turns. Ya settled another fish-man and listened to Willow's complaints. Luo Jiali licked the tiger teeth, pressed her hands to the double sheath on her waist, and looked eager to try.
"No, no, no! Come on! Use your brain a little bit instead of your muscles. Carrie Lo. We had already tried to die from external causes, didn't we? It turned out that it didn't live up to your expectations. What we want now is for her to perish herself. ”
"Isn't it just death? So troublesome. At the mention of the mysterious king, although Luo Jiali felt a little bored, she still honestly removed her hand from the double sheath.
"Your Majesty's orders are the rules of our actions!" Willow reminded her with a sneer, and turned his gaze back to Thea, who was still fighting over there, his eyebrows slightly curved. "It's a pity. The people she was waiting for would not come. What Mick sent was still somewhat useful. I have to admit that my useless sister is a bit better at calculating emotions than I am. ”
"Oh, so Bolval should have rushed back to Stormwind by now." Luo Jiali grinned and sneered.
"Therefore, fate is on the side of the king...... Of course, it must also be on the side of the king! ”
The bright moonlight shone against Willow's pale face, casting a divine sheen on her expression that had become more and more unfathomable by her smile.
She gazed tenderly at Thea, who was surrounded by fish-men and began to get a little flustered, or rather, the shadow that fell at Thea's feet, to be exact.
As if sensing Thea's crisis, the shadow under Thea's feet was slowly elongating, revealing a pair of black bat-wing shadows. Although reluctant, the succubus must obey the orders of its master.
And her master's order was to protect Thea when her life was in danger.
Although Ellerel was lazy, he still did not dare to go beyond the bottom of his duties and was ready to show up. And she's always done it before, and this time it's the same.
Is it the same?
Tuan was about to reveal the shadow of his true body, and Willow smiled slightly with satisfaction, his eyes shining with the worship of the king in her mouth like a god.
"Sure enough, as the king guessed, the lord left a little trouble. That's right, though. This will live up to the purpose of the king who sent me......"
Willow hurriedly recited the spell that had been prepared in his mouth, and the staff in his hand slammed into his feet, and the other hand aimed at the shadow at Xia's feet.
Although this small spell is too weak to cause magic fluctuations. But it specifically blocks the succubus from entering this world.
Ah...... Space isolation! Ellerel knocked on the barrier that he could not break through, flattened his mouth, and happily abandoned his mission with peace of mind, even with a hint of viciousness.
It's none of anyone's business...... Even if it's the owner, it can't be regarded as someone violating the order!
The shadow twisted for a while, and then slowly contracted and fell back in the struggle, causing Thea's shadow to return to its original state.
"Tsk......" Luo Jiali, who witnessed all this, stretched out her tongue and licked the tiger teeth that showed her lips, looking like she was smiling and disdainful because of this action.
Thea gasped heavily, and the staff in her hand was already standing on the ground, supporting her exhausted body. Now, Thea is really the fish-man who found her smaller locusts in the water.
Fish-people are creatures that are not as intelligent and physically as human beings, but because of their low intelligence, they have a strong group aggression, and once they have their sights on their targets, they must not rest. Although the fear of dying will cause them to have a brief instinctive escape. But when this ephemeral instinct encounters a companion who is still sprinting, it will be influenced by its companion and replaced by a group instinct and rush back again.
Of course, in the process, some fishmen will trip over their companions and die under the trampling of their companions.
Although it is true that the number of fish-people is constantly decreasing. But there are quite a few left.
Xia is a priest who is not known for his physical strength, and if it weren't for the body of the Forsaken now, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to support it a long time ago. But Rao is like this, and she is now only struggling to support herself by faith.
Bolwal ...... Why haven't you come yet? (To be continued.) )
