Chapter 11: Fierce Battle in the Woods
I have to say that the red lotus is really good, and before the slimes could react, she solved three of them, and even ran to the tree without injury. After quickly gaining a footing, she immediately assumed a defiant posture. If she doesn't succeed in attracting the attention of the slime, she'll look for a breakthrough on the periphery. If she can't find it, she takes action to buy time for others.
Unlike Alice, she doesn't have much of a sacrificial spirit, and the reason why she does this is to help everyone get out of trouble is just incidental, all she wants to do this time is to fight, and she will not stop until she deeply understands the joy of fighting.
It wasn't reckless impulsiveness, her confidence came from her instinctive reactions, in addition to the light green powder on her weapons.
Although she had forgotten the past, her superhuman reaction was still there. Maybe she had been in the army, she had undergone some kind of extremely rigorous training, but in short, her physical fitness was actually the best of the five.
The reason for the previous poor performance was simply because of the lack of familiarity with the skills. Now she thinks of herself as a warrior, with a sword in her right hand and a dagger in her left, as if she would attack at any moment. She plans to use ordinary means to fight the monsters without using any skills.
As for why she was able to quickly wipe out the slime just now, not only because the weapon was coated with special powder, but also because she discovered the weakness of the monster. It is difficult for ordinary people to perceive, but she can see the flow of magic power in the demonic object, and hit the core with unmistakable stabbing strikes, and the slime will die even if its vitality is tenacious.
Five minutes ago, she wouldn't have been able to do such a delicate operation. It was possible to do it because the fear of death stimulated her nerves, and her second talent was stimulated. As for what kind of talent it is, it is not known for the time being, and she herself is not aware of it, so it is certain that it is related to the pupils.
Her provocation was successful, and the death of her three companions deeply angered the slimes. Looking at the venom attacking everywhere, Red Lotus had a headache, even if she could catch the weakness of the monster, she had to hit the target at close range.
Running away from the trees, the trees she had stayed in had suffered. In less than 10 seconds, the trees were corroded by venom.
Seeing that nearly half of the monsters were attracted away, Xiu could not miss the good opportunity created by the Red Lotus adventure. With the arrows smeared with the powder, he wanted to flee with all the people.
Unfortunately, the speed of the slime on the ground is very slow, but it is not without other ways to move, just like at this moment, those slimes on the periphery use bounce to fill in the previously vacated positions.
Although it is still completely surrounded, the situation is better than before, at least the number of monsters has dropped to less than 300. As long as you pay attention to the dangerous venom, it is not impossible to get out of trouble.
It's just that the situation is still very critical, Alice, who had burst out with amazing combat effectiveness before, is now a wounded, and under Jarrow's kind words, she didn't protest anymore, and let him carry it.
As for Xiu, who is in charge of carrying all the bags, he is under the protection of Charles, and there will be no danger for the time being. It's a pity that his combat power is not enough, and he is not like Red Lotus who can kill slimes with one hit.
I have been holding the bow, and my hands have long been sore. The reason why he didn't put it down was because the arrows that smeared with the powder could slightly deter a low-level monster like a slime.
And the most low-key Charles, the sword in his hand is smeared with medicinal powder, but unfortunately he is not good at fighting at all, and he has to protect the other three, he has always been very careful to protect himself in front of cultivation.
His performance was even worse than Jarrow's, and he had learned [Shield Strike] and [Quick Thrust], but he didn't use it once, and he didn't even get out of his previous fears.
Xiu had noticed it a long time ago, but he didn't say anything, in this case, even he was scared, so what qualifications did he have to say Charles?
Seeing that the slimes were brewing venom attacks, Xiu was very worried: Do you really want to die? Damn, I promised to take everyone back smoothly, but now..!
The future is not without a turnaround, and the moment Xiu saw that he was about to die, Jia Luo stood up: "Black Flame Technique!" ”
This is not the black flame released by Jarrow from the palm of his hand, he is carrying the injured Alice on his back, how can he free his hand. Everywhere his gaze went, it was where the black flames bloomed. Under the protection of the semi-circular black flame barrier, all the staff barely resisted the terrifying amount of venom.
"Jarrow, you released that flame just now?"
"Well, don't talk nonsense, let's go! Rest assured, I'm in good shape and I'm confident that you'll leave safely! "It's just, your body really doesn't matter?"
Jarrow didn't bother to explain, and used his favorite black flame technique again, and the slime, who was obviously not afraid of fire magic, died tragically: "Alice, don't move." You're going to distract me like this! ”
Alice didn't want to move, but seeing that Jarrow might really be able to get the whole crew out of the fight, she didn't want to be carried on her back. Listening to Jarrow's words, she suddenly fell silent.
She was waiting for her magic to recover, and she thought that with just one more spell of light, her injuries should be healed. At that point, she will be fighting alongside Jarrow with her broken sword, which she has not yet discarded.
Jarrow's mindset has changed, but not too recklessly. Forcefully kill the slime in front of him, and he is focusing on defending against the slime's venom attack and [Tentacle Whip], protecting the three of them and fighting and retreating. It didn't take long for all the staff to break through the encirclement.
But slimes are not easy to mess with, and when they see the hateful intruders trying to escape, they spit out the ultra-corrosive lilac venom. Even if Jarrow's Black Flame Technique could withstand it, the large amount of smoke that could generate caused them some trouble. If you inhale too much smoke, your body will become paralyzed.
Noticing that Charr's state was a little unpleasant, Jarrow hurriedly increased the fire of the [Black Flame Barrier]. However, with this delay, they fell into the encirclement again. Looking at this stance, even if they are lucky enough to escape from the woods, the slimes will chase them to the end.
After a long spell, Jarrow felt tired again, and his magic was running out. Seeing that there were many slimes intercepting him on the way back to Takira City, he knew that it would be difficult to break through from here. With this in mind, he fled in the opposite direction with all his staff...
Compared to Jarrow's escape game, the situation on Red Lotus's side is very optimistic. After a thrilling and exciting desperate fight, more than 50 slimes have died in her hands, and her amazing performance deeply shocked the slimes.
The slime was terrified of the dagger and dagger in her hand, and if she got close, she would be absolutely obliterated. And the venom can't hit the nimble Red Lotus, and the tentacles don't work, how can this be fought?
At this time, it didn't matter if she was an intruder or not, she wanted to evacuate this dangerous area as soon as possible, so the situation reversed, and she became a slime that was so slow to hunt Red Lotus that was killing slowly.
However, just as Red Lotus was enjoying the battle, she had no idea that a group of people were watching her in the distance. The group was dressed in uniform and was the guard in charge of the surrounding area of Takira City.
Shortly after the riot in the woods, the gang appeared: "Oh? This female newcomer is quite capable! If we can incorporate her into the guard, then our strength will definitely increase! ”
"The skills are very good, but looking at her like that, there is not much physical strength left, the captain doesn't need to be too optimistic about her, after all, she is just a newcomer, and there are still many things to learn! If it weren't for the exorcism powder on her weapon, she wouldn't have been able to kill the slime at all! ”
"Okay, she'll be fine for the time being, let's go and see first... Well? Oops, those newcomers are in danger! Leave one of you to keep an eye on the little girl, and remember not to let her die, everyone else will follow me! ”
Unknowingly got out of the woods, and even threw the slime far away, and Jia Luo contributed a lot. However, before they could slow down, the seemingly peaceful lake not far away suddenly moved, and a deafening roar sounded...
