Chapter 16: The Ogre War
"Shield Wall"
"Ping-pong, ping-pong, ping-pong"
"Huh, I said can you concentrate while you're fighting?"
"Aha, I'm sorry, Shuang'er."
"Icepick? It's good to catch up, otherwise you're afraid you'll have to have a few more big holes in your body. ”
"Thanks, but don't say anything horrible, okay?"
I saw that a wall formed with magic power spread out around Ning Wushuang's shield, and the solid wall of magic power resisted the ogre magician's three-shot ice pick attack.
The ogre mage was annoyed and angry when he saw that the sneak attack failed, and after screaming, the two large ogres around him began to attack Ning Wushuang and Zou Haoyun. At the same time, Yu Feng had cleanly dealt with the few ordinary ogres rushing ahead. However, there are still as many as 10 ordinary ogres on the field.
Yu Feng also came to Ning Wushuang and Zou Haoyun's side, looked at Ning Wushuang, who had just put away the shield wall skill, and asked in a low voice, "No problem, right?" ”
Ning Wushuang nodded: "Well, it's not a big problem. ”
Yu Feng continued: "If the magic power is insufficient, don't save the potion. ”
Ning Wushuang smiled and said, "That's for sure, anyway, there's a lot of money to do, and I won't have to worry about you and Haoyun." ”
Although Ning Wushuang's magic power is not lacking, it is still a little less than Yu Feng, let alone Zou Haoyun.
Just now, in order to protect Zou Haoyun in the distance, Ning Wushuang used the magic skill "Swiftness" to increase his movement speed, and also used the instantaneous displacement of "Instant Slash" to rush to Zou Haoyun in time to use the "Shield Wall" skill. Using three magic skills at once, it really made Ning Wushuang start to feel a little out of strength.
Looking at the two large ogres that were rushing, Ning Wushuang hurriedly said, "Yu Feng, I'll solve one with you alone." Haoyun, cover us. The ogre doesn't seem to be able to use his magic skills for the time being, but he still needs to be careful. ”
"Understood"
"Understand"
With that, Ning Wushuang and Yu Feng rushed towards their respective targets. The ordinary ogres who wanted to stop the two were knocked down one by one by Zou Haoyun using the fireball technique from a distance.
Ning Wushuang took out a bottle of demonic potion from the storage ring and quickly poured it down.
"Hey, that's too choking." The strong smell of herbs made Ning Wushuang couldn't help but complain, and then began to analyze: Although the physique and strength of large ogres are stronger than ordinary ogres, their speed is about the same. The Swiftness skill still has a 5-minute duration, so you need to fight quickly and win with speed.
"Boom"
An ordinary ogre beside Ning Wushuang was hit by Zou Haoyun's fireball technique. But because the burning ogre was far away from Zou Haoyun, the explosion of the fireball did not knock it down. The burning ogre wailed, dancing to extinguish the flames on his body.
"Good opportunity."
Ning Wushuang wanted to go around to the underside of this ordinary ogre, so as to avoid the attack of the large ogre, and then attack from the flank and rear of the large ogre.
"Roar!"
The large ogre saw Ning Wushuang's intentions, and it was angry that it didn't care about the life or death of the ordinary ogre in the burning, and planned to defeat this ogre and crush Ning Wushuang to death.
"Poof"
The huge wooden hammer of the large ogre hit the head of the burning ogre, and the blood of the burning ogre splattered everywhere, losing its vitality on the spot, and Ning Wushuang who was in the back slowly fell.
Ning Wushuang hurriedly rolled to the side, because he didn't expect the large ogre to be so ruthless, Ning Wushuang looked a little embarrassed in a hurry.
After dodging, Ning Wushuang half-squatted and panted as he looked at the large ogre and said angrily: "What kind of thing, everyone will be killed." ”
Before Ning Wushuang could finish complaining, the large ogre launched a second attack, and the big wooden hammer was raised into the air and slammed down on Ning Wushuang's location.
At this time, it was too late to dodge the attack, and it was not enough distance to attack forward, so Ning Wushuang hurriedly launched the "Instant Slash" skill again to the side, using the instantaneous displacement to dodge this deadly attack.
"Bang"
The land was smashed into a big hole by a large ogre, and Ning Wushuang secretly smacked his tongue: "I can't bear this attack." ”
"Bang!"
There was also a loud noise not far away, and Ning Wushuang hurriedly looked at it worriedly.
"Damn, so fierce?!"
I saw that another large ogre also launched the same hammer blow at Yu Feng, but Yu Feng did not find a way to dodge it like Ning Wushuang, but raised his shield and took the blow hard.
A big crater also appeared under Yu Feng's feet because of the impact, but Yu Feng was still as steady as Mount Tai, holding a shield against the large ogre's wooden hammer and said with interest: "Yo, a little strength." ”
Sophia, who was watching the battle from a distance, was so frightened that she was about to cover her eyes, while the other drivers were secretly amazed, admiring Yu Feng's incredible strength and physical fitness.
The ordinary ogre on the field has been eliminated by Zou Haoyun for the most part, and the ogre mage gritted his teeth angrily and screamed angrily at the troops facing defeat, but after using three ice picks in a row, it can only wait for the mana to recover temporarily.
"Tsk, there's only 3 minutes left."
The large ogre picked up the large wooden hammer again, and this time it raised it to its side, intending to sweep Ning Wushuang.
"It's now!"
"High Jumping"
When the sweeping wooden hammer was about to hit Ning Wushuang, Ning Wushuang used the high leaping technique in time, using magic to enhance the calf muscles to exert force, increase the jump height, and jump onto the wooden hammer.
After jumping onto the wooden hammer, Ning Wushuang didn't stop at all, aiming at the throat of the large ogre, and with the help of a little residual strength of the "Leaping Technique", he launched the "Instant Slash" again at the same time.
"Puff"
"Succeeded?! ... Lean"
Although Ning Wushuang successfully hit the target, the hardness of the large ogre's body exceeded Ning Wushuang's expectations. The dagger was only inserted in a small part, and although it also caused damage to the large ogre, it was not enough to be deadly.
Feeling the sharp pain coming from his throat, the large ogre let go of the big wooden hammer, and his hands were about to grab Ning Wushuang hanging from his throat.
Ning Wushuang saw that the situation was not good, and he couldn't take care of the short sword that he couldn't pull out, abandoned the sword and fled, jumping back to the ground.
"Poof"
Something unexpected happened, the short sword that was not inserted deeply was actually slapped into the throat by the hands of the large ogre who wanted to grab Ning Wushuang.
The large ogre kept spitting blood out of its mouth, trying to scream but unable to make a sound, and in a short time it collapsed to the ground and lost its life.
Ning Wushuang looked at the corpse of the large ogre and smiled helplessly and said, "It's really stupid." ”
Looking at Yu Feng not far away, the head of the large ogre rolled down beside Yu Feng, announcing Yu Feng's victory.
"Shuang'er!" Zou Haoyun shouted Ning Wushuang and ran to his side.
"Whew, whew. Didn't get hurt, did you? It's quite capable, this kind of guy can easily solve it. ”
Ning Wushuang smiled bitterly: "It's not easy at all, right?" ”
After saying that, Ning Wushuang looked around, only to find that there was no more ogre standing, Ning Wushuang asked in surprise: "I, X, have you solved it all?" ”
Zou Haoyun smiled stinkily and said, "Haha, Uncle Ben is amazing, right?" ”
Ning Wushuang looked around incredulously and continued to ask, "The ogre mage has also been solved?" Why didn't I see the body? ”
Zou Haoyun put away his stinky fart, and said with a little embarrassment: "I just came here to tell you that it ran away." ”
Ning Wushuang pulled the short sword out of the throat of the large ogre with great effort and said, "That's it, there's no way around it. ”
At this time, the drivers in the distance came over to surround the three of them, and did not hesitate to praise them.
Sophia walked up to Ning Wushuang, who looked the most tired and embarrassed, and asked with concern, "Brother Shuang'er is not injured, right?" ”
Ning Wushuang hurriedly nodded, put away the short sword that was wiped clean, and replied with a smile, "Don't worry, Sophia." I'm fine. ”
Sophia was relieved: "Whew, that's good, don't force it." ”
Zou Haoyun was unhappy when he saw that Sophia didn't ask about his situation, and shouted: "Hey, Sophia, why don't you care about me?" Such an eccentric twin. ”
Ning Wushuang and Sophia blushed instantly, and Ning Wushuang hurriedly said, "Don't talk nonsense! ”
Sophia said hesitantly: "It's not that I don't care about Brother Haoyun, it's just that Brother Haoyun puts magic skills in the distance and doesn't get close to the ogre, so he shouldn't be injured." ”
Zou Haoyun said reluctantly: "That's also very hard and tiring, I also want others to care about it." ”
Sophia hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I care about everyone, Brother Hotwon has worked hard." ”
Seeing that Qian Zilai beside Sophia was about to have a sister-in-law attack, Zou Haoyun hurriedly said: "Haha, just kidding, Sophia don't take it seriously, I'm fine." ”
Qian Zilai: "Hmph. ”
Yu Feng stretched his body and said with satisfaction: "Ah, since I became an adventurer, this fight is the happiest one. ”
Everyone remembered Yu Feng's hard resistance to the large ogre's hammer just now, and they couldn't help but collectively complain: "Monster." ”
"Hahaha."
——
The battle with the ogres has come to an end for the time being, and the Mischel prairie has regained its tranquility.
In order to prevent the escaped ogre from bringing the ogre troops to sneak attack, Qian Zilai and Sophia offered to keep vigil and let the three of Ning Wushuang, who had been fighting, rest quickly.
The three of them are not hypocritical, and they fall asleep after a little tidying up. After the three of them fell asleep, Sophie thoughtfully used "Slow Healing" for the three of them. Because slow healing can restore physical strength, although the three of them are not injured after the battle, their bodies will always feel tired.
Later, Sophia came to sit down by the campfire, and saw Qian Zilai frowning at the flames as if she had something in mind.
Sophia took the initiative to speak: "Brother Zilai." ”
Qian Zilai came back to his senses, saw that Sophia had already sat down, and said embarrassedly, "Oh, Sophia. Sorry, I didn't notice just now. ”
Sophia smiled and asked, "Brother Zilai, is there something on your mind?" Homesick? ”
Sophia's smile warmed Qian Zilai's heart, and her mood was a little less bad, and she said with a smile: "Haha, it's not homesick. It's just..."
Sophia wondered, "Just?" ”
Qian Zilai gradually put away his smile again.
Sophia hurriedly said, "Ah, I'm sorry. If Brother Zilai doesn't want to say it..."
Qian Zilai interrupted Sophia's apology and said, "No, no, no, I'm willing to tell Sophia." Just think about how to say it well. ”
Sophia nodded and said with concern, "If Brother Zilai has anything on his mind, it's okay to tell everyone in the team." Everyone must be willing to help Brother Zilai. ”
Qian Zilai smiled and said, "I understand, especially Sophia is so kind and gentle, I am more willing to tell you." However, I won't tell Zou Haoyun if I die, that kid's mouth... Forget it, don't bother to talk about him. ”
Sophia also laughed out loud after hearing this, and said, "Brother Haoyun is actually a very good person. ”
Qian Zilai looked at Sophia with his hands on his cheeks and asked, "He always bullies you, and you still say good things to him?" ”
Sophia continued to smile and said, "However, every time Brother Zilai will protect me from bullying him, so it doesn't matter. ”
Sophia's words made Qian Zilai blush, and he quickly shifted his gaze to the flames again.
After the two were silent for a while, Qian Zilai said slowly: "Actually, I was thinking about whether I should continue to be an adventurer. ”
Sophia looked at Qian Zilai in shock and said, "Huh?!" Why do you think so? ”
Qian Zilai took a deep breath and said slowly: "In the previous bronze rank mission, even if I received a crusade against a beast, I could pick up my sword and participate in the battle to protect Sophia. However, the difficulty of the Silver Tier quest is obviously not the same level as the Bronze Tier, and I can't even solve an ordinary ogre without magic and power. ”
Speaking of this, Qian Zilai shook his head and continued dejectedly: "This kind of me, let alone protecting Sophia, has become a burden to the team. ”
"Brother Zilai..."Sophia wanted to comfort Qian Zilai, but she didn't know how to speak. Seeing that Qian Zilai, who usually takes good care of herself, is suffering in her heart at the moment, Sophia also feels uncomfortable.
"Ouch, don't say such frustrating things."
A voice sounded behind him, and Qian Zilai and Sophia hurriedly turned their heads to look over.
Zou Haoyun didn't know when he woke up, or he hadn't fallen asleep at all from the beginning, and was squatting behind the two of them with a wicked smile on his face to eavesdrop.
"You're eavesdropping?!" Qian Zilai was about to stand up and give Zou Haoyun a righteous blow.
Zou Haoyun immediately bounced back and said, "Stop, stop!" I said that I didn't even care if you secretly said bad things about me in front of Sophia, and you still wanted to beat me. Besides, the opportunity to be alone with Sophia was ruined by you, who am I to blame? ”
Qian Zilai said angrily and funny: "Heh, what I said is the truth, you think it's bad because it's a bad thing." ”
After hearing this, Zou Haoyun nodded and said to himself: "Eh? How does it seem... Makes sense? ”
Then, Zou Haoyun shook his head again, came to Qian Zilai's side, pulled Qian Zilai to sit down, and said: "Brother, you are going to quit, our team can't make so much money, we can count on your fortune to make more money to buy good equipment and good skills." ”
After speaking, he looked at Sophia and said, "Sophia's magic skills are not enough to buy, you brother is not good to help and want to slip away?" ”
Sophia was amused by Zou Haoyun's alternative way of comforting, and said with a smile: "Yes, I used to complete tasks with other adventure teams, but I couldn't earn so much compensation for this team now, it's all because of Brother Zilai's fortune that the team has developed so quickly." ”
Zou Haoyun hurriedly nodded and said, "That's it, that's it, it's still your sister who is sensible." ”
Qian Zilai shook his head with a wry smile helplessly, looking at the two who comforted him. When everyone awakened the magic circuit together, Qian Zilai didn't have magic and didn't care about it, and Qian Zilai didn't expect that after discovering the importance of magic now, he would be so depressed
Zou Haoyun saw that Qian Zilai was still silent, and said with a cheap smile: "Hehe, I think you are really inferior to your sister." Your sister has had a rough life with our previous adventures, and she has been able to persevere. Since you want to quit, hehe, then I'll leave the protection of Sophia to me, right? ”
"Hand over you big-headed ghost. Begging? ”
"Stop, stop! I was wrong, big brother. ”
Obviously, Zou Haoyun's words stimulated Qian Zilai. Qian Zilai thought that Sophia would have to face all kinds of difficulties and crises in the future, and if she quit, she would not be able to stand up to protect this weak, kind and strong "sister from another world". So, Qian Zilai cheered up again.
Looking at Ning Wushuang and Yu Feng who were asleep, and then at the two of them who were fighting, Sophia let out a crisp laugh, and thought in her heart: I really hope to go on like this with everyone.
