Chapter 40: Grappling[Revised]

The remaining number of the High Elves is only half of the original, although they still have some advantages over the commandos in terms of numbers, but they are not as good as the Dark Elves in terms of combat power and coordination, just like we eliminated the first half of them before, and easily defeated the second half.

These were my thoughts before the contact war, especially with the addition of extraordinary new members to the commando team with both wings separated.

On one side are 3 huge eight-legged poisonous insects - Rose's holy relics were temporarily enlarged by the priest with the "giant insect technique", and the combat effectiveness is not known yet, but the appearance alone is scary enough. The fluffy black spider, after becoming larger, includes eight long legs with a diameter of 3 meters and a height of half a meter, the bristles on the body are as hard as spikes, compound eyes that reflect starlight, huge fangs, and the appearance is absolutely good, which can play the role of making the protagonist and the audience scatter in the old horror film.

On the other side was a purgatory-armed ape summoned by the instructor, with a terrifyingly ugly appearance and four thick arms. This brutal creature from Purgatory has abilities that ordinary people can't match.

Three giant spiders and the four-armed ape of Purgatory head the team on both wings, like the tips of two sharp knives, and stick them into the team of high elves.

But......

A huge golden lion quickly pounced on the purgatory-armed orangutan, and the two beasts immediately scuffled together, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner. It wasn't an ordinary lion, but a celestial ferocious lion summoned by a mage on the side of the high elves.

At the same time, arrows rained down, and the High Elves' archery skills lived up to their reputation, despite the trees that served as a barrier between the trees, making it difficult for the commandos who followed behind the four-armed apes of Purgatory.

On the other side, in the wooded area ahead, weeds, shrubs, and branches began to twist and entangle, quickly trapping the huge holy insects. Although the spiders that grew larger also increased their strength, they struggled to break the entangled plants, but the next moment they were entangled again, making it difficult for them to walk. Fortunately, we were out of the way from the conspicuous giant spider, sneaking after us, and immediately wisely changed direction to bypass the area where the spell was cast.

"Greasy Technique" and "Spider Web Technique" were also used by the High Elves to block the path that hindered the advance of the commando team here.

Well, to be able to summon the Celestial Fierce Lion, it seems that there are high-level NPCs in the remaining team of the high elves, and they react quickly, blocking on one side and striking on the other, trying to divide us into two parts and eat them one by one, it seems that they are not so easy to deal with.

I put away the compound shortbow, avoiding the tangled plants and the "greasy spell" in the area of influence, picking on the cobwebs to break through, and the +1 blazing sword in my hand was used to open the way, and the magic flame on it could instantly clear the cobwebs as I thought.

Easily breaking through the cobwebs, I sneaked up to the side of a tall elf under the cover of the trees. Not only did he wear a strange gear, but even his skin had a somewhat skin-like appearance, and he was casting a spell on the ground in the direction of the giant spider, and although the appearance of the area seemed to have changed after the spell, I didn't want to walk in.

Just as he was about to slash him under his sword before a loud roar rang out from the side, startling both me and the high elf.

Out of the corner of his eye, a huge brown bear was rushing towards him from not far away, knocking all the trees that stood in the way away......

The high elf turned around and suddenly saw me, and in a shocked manner, he made a simple spell casting motion, and a 1-meter-long sword-shaped beam of blazing flame with a dazzling light appeared in his hand, and slashed at me.

It's the "Flame Knife"! Melee magic for druids.

It turned out to be a druid, no wonder I saw that the equipment he was wearing was not cloth or skin, and it was very strange, it must be the legendary wooden armor, with the bark of a tree that had not been removed. Druids derive their powers from nature, so they try to avoid metalwork that prevents them from communicating with nature, and although the texture of wood armor is stronger than ordinary cloth or leather equipment, it is not lightweight, and only druids can wear it.

As a spellcaster, you actually want to fight me, a warrior, hand-to-hand?

I sneered and dodged the Flame Knife, it wasn't a physical one, and I didn't want to test what it would do to block. With a fierce attack, the wooden armor cracked.

Hmph~~~ Even light metal armor can't resist my magic sword, let alone made of wood.

I thrust the sword back through the crack in the wooden armor, and there was another obstacle before stabbing into his body, like stabbing a tree, but it couldn't stop the +1 blazing sword with magic flames attached to it, and it still stabbed in. It's the "Tree Skin Technique", the druid's housekeeping protection spell, as the name suggests, is to make the skin as tough as the bark, no wonder it is such a complexion, it should have been thought of a long time ago.

The druid leaned on me weakly, and whispered his last words regretfully: "I made a mistake, I should have become an eagle and flew away, I leaned on ......"

I damn it too! It's actually a player! But if you want to transform and escape at such a close distance, you can still be chopped off.

But now is not the time to worry about the player or the NPC, I pushed his corpse hard against the side of the huge brown bear that was already approaching, causing the beast to stand up and stop the pounce, and lowered its head to sniff its owner's body. Then he raised his head and opened his huge mouth to let out a howl of extreme rage......

I'm waiting for this moment! The magic sword sliced through the bear's thick neck, and no blood spurted out. The magical flames on the sword had burned the blood that flowed out, and the flesh burned by the flames emitted the smell of roasted meat.

I don't know if the barbecue bear meat is delicious~~~ When I was thinking about this important matter of people's livelihood, the dying brown bear slapped me and flew out......

I fell between the broken branches and leaves, and I couldn't stand up for a moment.

Too careless! Because he easily dealt with this beast, he was too proud, and he didn't escape the attack of the brown bear before he died. What does this say in the words of the Dark Elves? In any battle or otherwise, a dark elf's struggle before death is referred to as his "final bite".

"The last bite" comes from the meaning of the spider's fangs, which means the last and deadliest attack.

Although the Druid is a class that is closer to animals than the Ranger, the ability to control a brown bear requires at least level 6. I thought that because of the 10-in-a-row championship in the Fighting Martial Tower, and the subsequent Burning Troll incident, I leveled up faster, leaving the average player behind a level or two.

I didn't expect to meet the first player after coming up to the surface and it was also level 6.,And it's a spell-casting profession that is more difficult to develop in the early stage.,It seems that there are masters everywhere.,But you can't be arrogant.,Underestimate other players~~~.

I was seriously reviewing it when something suddenly came to mind. Wrong! The Dark Elves have a racial penalty, and in addition to the bright light temporary blindness, there is an experience penalty, and the level used to calculate the experience is +2 on top of the existing level. According to the explanation of the system elf at the time, it is a character who is considered to be 2 levels higher than your level when calculating the experience points obtained, and all other data is calculated according to the original level. The experience gained by the Dark Elves to level 6 is equivalent to level 8 of other races......

It's no wonder that the Dark Elf race has those advantages, but at the time, it reminded me that the male players of the Dark Elf race have a hard level of difficulty. It turns out that it is not only the low status of men in the Dark Elf society, but also the problem of experience points, so in the future, Dark Elf players will generally be two levels lower than players of other races.

Bad......
