Chapter 16: A Terrible Night

"What?" Robin looked around blankly, seeing nothing but the endless darkness and the extremely limited circular range illuminated by the campfire.

Nothing could be heard except the crows howling in the trees and the wolves that loomed from time to time.

The cold wind silently swept the ground, crackling the campfire.

"Shh Gail held up a finger and his eyes became solemn, "Trust Iyeta, her hearing is very good. ”

"Here we are." Iyeta held her sword in her hand and looked coldly into the distance.

Robin and Gail stared in that direction.

First, there was a slight gust of wind, and at the same time the sound of rustling became thicker and thicker.

A light appeared in the darkness.

In Robin's eyes, it's like-

Two small full moons with sparkling sparkles.

"What's that?"

Either way, he wouldn't have thought it was a car.

"We may have encountered a demon oyster." Iyeta said coldly.

"Demon Worm...... What is that? ”

"You won't want to know." When Iyeta said this, she was already in a cold sweat.

"I hope I don't come." Gail followed nervously.

The shadow crawled quickly, following a curve in the distance.

It was at this moment that the pair of shining moons suddenly turned and "shone" over.

Although Robin had a premonition, when he looked at that thing, another coldness still rushed to his head from the soles of his feet-

The two moons were distinctly gigantic eyes, and the hidden vague bodies below stretched out, sweeping away a shower of fallen leaves in the distance.

Either way, it looked like a giant snake.

It's just that looking at its size, it's at least a dozen meters long.

Robin found himself completely oblivious to breathing, and his palms were already covered with sweat.

The speed of the thing was extremely fast, and I saw the snow carried by its tail sweep back and forth, and the rustle came from far and near.

It was also the first time that Robin knew that snakes could crawl so fast.

Immediately after, he saw a white shadow.

Although it is not very real, it can be vaguely recognized as a lone wolf, the individual is relatively much more normal, but it is also much larger than the size of the wolf that Robin knew before.

Impartially, the two things rushed straight at them one after the other.

"Damn it!"

Although it had been prepared, the strange operation of the magic snake also caught Iyeta and Gail by surprise, who knew that it would turn halfway and pounce on this side.

This was not a good thing for the two priest guards who had not recovered from their injuries.

It can even be said to be a bolt from the blue.

Iyeta and Gail moved at the same time, pulling Robin to the right and running quickly, trying to avoid the two behemoths.

There was a loud bang behind Robin, and out of the corner of his eye, he could almost see the moonlight reflected off the slippery giant snake body behind him.

and the coldness of the snowflakes that were pounded on the legs.

However, in the next moment, Robin's face hit Iyeta's back hard.

Gail and Iyeta stopped at the same time.

A white shadow slammed into the grass in front of them, letting out a whimper.

The shadow quickly churned up from the ground, its four claws pointed to the ground, its head lowered, and two rows of cold white teeth grinning back.

Finished.

Robin thought to himself, there was a snake in the back, a wolf in front, and he was surrounded.

Behind them, the massive serpent's body stood straight up, looking down at the ground.

It's like a big tree.

The white wolf let out a low roar that made people's hearts tremble.

For the first time, Robin saw that different species would also hunt together.

Gail turned and stood back to back with Iyeta, one on either side of Robin, protecting him to the death.

"Wolf, yours. Devil's Snake, mine. ”

Iyeta finished briefly, and the two men stepped forward with their swords.

The two white figures rushed towards their respective targets with extreme speed and agility.

But—

Robin noticed that something was wrong, and at the moment when Gail's sword stabbed at the white wolf, the white wolf leaped up and stepped over everyone's heads, but it pounced straight at the giant snake behind it.

Not collaboration!

They're just caught up in the battle of the behemoths.

"Not good."

Robin exclaimed, turning his gaze to Iyeta worriedly.

The latter's speed was very fast, and she reached the bottom of the hovering snake body in two steps, and with a flick of her right hand, the silver-white Z-shaped sword pierced into the snake's body.

The wolf's shadow flew through the air and bit hard under the dragon's head.

"Silk~~" The giant snake hissed miserably.

It was then that Ieta realized what a serious mistake she had just made.

But it was too late, and the snake tail of the demon snake struck quickly, curling her body up quickly.

Iyeta's mouth let out a muffled snort of pain, and the whole person was lifted into the air.

"Iyeta!"

Gail shouted.

The white wolf did not let go, and bit the layer of flesh and skin.

Even in this case, perhaps because Iyeta had done more damage than before, the Demon Snake still didn't let Iyeta go.

……

Robin's hands were placed in front of his chest, palms facing outward, and a faint purple magic aura appeared on his hands out of thin air.

His mouth began to sing, and the light of magic grew stronger.

Five seconds later, three purple magic missiles surged out of the aperture, slashing through the air in three intertwined arcs with each other, and flew towards the huge body of the demon snake.

"Boom!"

A streamer of light sped and slammed into the snake's head.

"Boom! Rumble! ”

This was followed by two more hits.

The huge snake's head swayed outward.

As the purple light receded, a small wound broke in the skin at the back of the eye.

But no substantial harm has been done to it.

"The skin of the Demon Snake has a certain amount of magic resistance." Gail frowned and said, "Low-level magic is too weak against it. ”

Compared to Robin's magic, the White Wolf and Gail's attacks are significantly more effective -

The huge wolf bit the snake's neck tightly, its jaws straining its sharp teeth like two sharp blades, stabbing into its body.

The demon worm trembled in pain, blood dripping down the wolf's teeth from where it had been bitten open.

Gail's stabbing was clearly effective, as she nimbly swam around the snake's body on the ground, digging into one bloody hole after another in it.

Robin saw that Iyeta, who was tightly wrapped around the snake's body, turned pale for a while, and was afraid that he would not last long.

Compared to this behemoth, the strength of ordinary warriors is too weak.

The Demon Snake seemed to be aware of its current situation, but it still didn't plan to let go of Iyeta, and instead tilted the snake's head outward-

Robin saw the huge shadow complete a massive bow in the air.

For some reason, an ominous premonition hung over him.
