Chapter 21: What the hell is the profession?
Chapter 21 What exactly is the profession?
"That's right, Lawson was very strong from the beginning, he exposed his combat talent at a very early stage, and I was stupid at that time, when one pair of twelve and the level was not dominant, he actually reversed, in his own words, well, it was the flight of the show! He's a natural warrior, no, phew! If I could have that many class abilities, I would be a natural warrior......" from "The Autobiography of the Legendary Wolf Fingal"
"Boss, it's getting dark, are we really going to rush in?" One of the warriors asked with some hesitation.
Not all people are distorted by hatred!
The others also stopped when they heard this, and as night was about to fall, the giant trees at the edge of the forest seemed to be shaking their teeth and claws in front of them as the wind blew. It is common knowledge that the monsters in the Red Moon Forest at night are much more brutal than during the day, and there are some small insect monsters that are more difficult to deal with, so adventurers will try to avoid entering the Red Moon Forest at night.
But at this moment, Sterling was already angry to the extreme, and shouted loudly: "That kid only has the second rank and definitely doesn't dare to go too deep, what are so many of us afraid of, this time as long as I can kill that kid and find the treasure, I only need thirty percent, and the rest of the brothers will divide it equally!" ”
Stirling was so generous, and his subordinates didn't worry too much, as the saying goes, people die for money, and under the stimulus of the treasure, everyone went into the forest with a hard head.
After entering the forest, the light darkens and turns red significantly, and everything around it looks so eerie in this color. Rosen crept along the familiar route, trying not to make any sound, and the stealth was not as effective as the shadow walk of the Shadow Assassin, at least not completely obscuring the sound.
When Rosen turned around and saw that Sterling had brought someone to chase him in, he was also slightly stunned, and then his eyes lit up: "Since you are looking for death, then it's no wonder that others." ”
"Fingal, where are you? I've brought them in, twelve in all. ”
Fingal's response came to mind: "It's almost a minute, are those people strong?" ”
This question Lawson couldn't answer either, his magic weakness detection type magic couldn't be used at all, but according to his estimation and the level of the entrusted task, these people should be the second rank, at most the third rank, and the wolves should be able to win it by themselves with a huge numerical advantage.
After discussing with Fingal, the time of weakness has completely passed, and Rosen is more sure, he now has nearly 200 gold coins on his body, enough for him to change jobs many times, seeing Sterling and the others gradually approaching, Rosen leaned back, hiding behind a big tree, waiting for the best opportunity to attack.
The Red Thorn Thieves are very experienced in combat, and they are in a neat formation at the moment, with the warriors on the periphery to protect the magician Ruben in the middle, the powerful Sterling is the arrowhead, the thieves use their speed to act as scouts on both sides, and Ruben uses the enhanced state of perception to find Rosen's traces.
"Boss, the traces are gone here, he should be nearby!" A thief scout examined the marks on the ground with certainty.
Stirling waved his hand and everyone stopped, and the magician Ruben released an illumination spell, but in the Red Moon Forest, the light was a little red and looked very strange, and he cautiously surveyed the surroundings.
Sterling gasped for breath, although the medicine stopped the bleeding, but the pain of being blind was still unbearable, how could the leader of the thieves who did all kinds of evil have ever been so aggrieved! He gritted his teeth and said: "Boy, I know that you are nearby, I will catch you and cut off the flesh on your body piece by piece with a knife, rest assured, I will not let you die comfortably, I will make you regret that you are alive." ”
Sterling wanted to use intimidation tactics to make Rosen reveal his whereabouts, but it didn't work, Rosen didn't want to bird him at all, he was waiting for Fingal's support.
After a few moments, the scouts on either side suddenly stopped moving, and looked intently into the depths of the forest as if they had found something, and soon, the scouts all widened their eyes, their pupils dilated, and in their pupils they reflected agile coyotes running in this direction behind the trees.
"Boss, it's a pack of coyotes!"
Of course, Sterling knew the distribution of the types of demonic beasts near the periphery, and he was surprised that he had not encountered demonic beasts since entering the forest just now, such as the fanged boar, the black diamond snake and the like, how did he know that this area of demonic beasts had almost been killed by Lawson and Fingal......
At this moment, a pack of coyotes appeared, and Sterling thought about it and immediately ordered: "Withdraw!" ”
Only now, can they still withdraw?
Just as they turned around and were about to retreat, Lawson decisively bought a bottle of meditation potion in the krypton gold store, and then quietly walked out from behind the tree, he must not let them go, he may not have such a good opportunity in the future.
Rosen stooped over and scurried behind Sterling. In Rosen's eyes, Sterling is the biggest threat to him, as long as he can be killed first, the rest of the people will definitely panic, and the principle of capturing the thief and capturing the king first is also valid even in another world.
Swish! The sound of weapons breaking through the air.
The novice dagger stabbed Sterling in the back, and Lawson's stealth was canceled by the attack, revealing himself in the enemy's sight.
Backstab: An ability that most classes of Thieves have, dealing 1.5 times as much damage as normal damage, and if activated from a target from behind, the damage is increased to 3 times and has a bleeding effect.
Sterling is also a thief class, his perception is not low, and his level is much higher than that of Rosen, when Rosen made a move, he already felt a huge danger behind him, and the pores of his whole body instantly stood up. Sterling's rich combat experience saved him, and instead of following his instincts to dodge to the sides, he threw his whole body forward with a single blow of his feet, and he could feel the tip of the knife touching his back, narrowly avoiding Rosen's blow.
"It's that kid! Kill him! The members of the thieves group next to him reacted quickly when they found Rosen appearing, and rushed towards Rosen together.
The lower right corner of the interface shows that Lawson's backstab missed the target, and Lawson secretly said that it was a pity, and immediately clicked on the career tree, chose the most familiar professional magician, and launched it with one click.
Lightning Field: A second-order magic that is released around itself as the center, and all targets within a radius of 5 will receive 45 lightning damage and be paralyzed for 2 seconds. Special Effect: Identifies friend and foe, hitting the caster's mind will trigger a nerve stimulation effect, increasing speed by 10% for 5s. Instant magic, mana cost 60, cooldown 17 seconds.
A light blue arc suddenly appeared on Lawson's body, which spread rapidly outward in a circular shape.
According to the original formation distance of the thieves group, Lawson's magic range enveloped a few people in the middle at most, and the scouts on both sides were outside the range. However, Lawson's sudden appearance and sneak attack naturally attracted the opponent's attack, except for the experienced level 29 ranger Hagrid who jumped back in a row to open the distance and prepare to shoot arrows with a bow, the rest were all melee characters, and naturally they all tried desperately to get close to Lawson. As for the level 19 magician Ruben, he was not slow to react, chanting magic flames on the spot to cooperate with everyone's attack.
Therefore, this lightning stance hit 10 people, and they trembled all over and their attacks were interrupted, and even the daggers of two thieves were only a few centimeters away from Rosen's neck!
This time Lawson is also very risky, if the reaction is slow and the lightning position does not keep up, he will definitely be hit by the enemy first, and the consequences are unimaginable. Thankfully, he succeeded.
On the other hand, Sterling, who was about to fight back but was trembling with electricity, his mouth was wide open, and his eyes were full of shock and puzzlement when he looked at Rosen. The rest of the crowd was also completely confused, and they couldn't even think that this kid was using the thief's combat skills to sneak and backstab one moment, how could he cast magic the next moment?
How can you cast magic?
What the hell is your profession?
Rosen doesn't care about this, Sterling is the most powerful of all and the biggest threat to him, and he must be dealt with first. Rosen had a hunch that once Sterling was given a chance to get close, he was likely to kill the mage's self in an instant, so Rosen didn't waste 2 seconds after the lightning stance, and the instant magic wind blade was immediately activated.
Wind Blade: Second-tier magic, after activation, it deals 42-50 wind damage to all targets within a straight line range of 12, special effect: has a certain chance to cut off the target's body parts. Instant magic, mana cost 65, cooldown for 10 seconds.
Having fought against Warcraft in the Red Moon Forest for a long time, Lawson's combat skills have reached the point where he is handy, and what he lacks is nothing more than combat experience in the face of human opponents, but he has become familiar with this skill, and there is no problem at all.
The green crescent-shaped wind blade was not over after being thrown out, and in Sterling's stunned eyes, Rosen followed with a wave of his wand, and the instant magic flame burst was launched, and then took a few steps back, and in the process of retreating, he poured out the meditation potion and a bottle of primary mana potion that could restore 150 mana points in one go.
Mana Potions have a cooldown time, and if you take them continuously, the effect will be reduced, and you may also suffer from the disadvantage of backlash. But that's enough for the moment.
After a series of movements, a burst of flame struck Sterling first, setting him on fire, followed by the Wind Blade before piercing his body, and continuing to penetrate the body of a warrior and magician Reuben.
At this moment, Stirling was lucky, the cutting effect did not appear, but the magician Ruben behind him was unlucky, he was maintaining the spell casting posture The magic battle stretched forward, the flames did not send out until this moment, and the wind blade passed through his arm, directly cutting off his right hand! The flames lost control and crashed to the side, knocking a fellow thief flying!
In two seconds, Lawson was stunned by two consecutive second-order instantaneous magicians who abolished the only magician in the thief group, showing gorgeous spell casting skills, at least in the eyes of the thieves group members, Reuben's spell casting was not so fast or so easy.
As soon as the two seconds passed, only one warrior continued to rush towards Lawson, and the other warriors and thieves were all shocked by Lawson's methods, and they either froze or turned around and ran! They swore that they had never encountered such a strange thing in their lives.
This can't blame them for being timid, how to say that they are also a group of thieves who lick blood from the knife edge, and they have more or less a lot of lives on their hands, but Rosen first changed from a Holy Spirit priest to a stealthy wind chasing thief, and now from a thief to a magician, the span between this is too big, so that their thinking can't keep up at all, and more importantly, Rosen's spell casting speed, magic connection, and magic power are all beyond the familiar Ruben, which has broken their cognition, they don't understand.
The unknown can easily turn into fear, even if you don't run away on the spot, the battle spirit is almost gone, and you look blankly at Lawson who is still casting spells.
Stirling is different, after all, he is a leader, a bronze rank powerhouse, and has experienced many life and death killings. After the paralysis was lifted, he poured a bottle of healing potion as soon as possible, and found that although Rosen retreated, he was still within the attack range of a certain ability, and immediately put the two daggers in a staggered posture up and down, his body bent forward slightly, and he was ready to shoot, and he coldly spit out four words in his mouth,
"Shadowless Kill!"
This is Sterling's own combat skill in the process of killing innocents, you can quickly rush to the target and carry out multiple powerful attacks on the target from different angles in a semi-stealth state, because it is a semi-stealth state, so this combat skill is unguardable, only at the moment of the attack shows the real body, once he is approached, even if it is also a third-order warrior powerhouse, it is difficult not to be injured, let alone a magic professional.
In Sterling's opinion, no matter how powerful Rosen is, a magician in his twenties cannot be too exaggerated in terms of the amount of magic or magic power, and there will definitely be a gap after continuous use of magic, as long as he is approached by the shadowless killing, he has reason to believe that Rosen will become a dead man.
If Sterling knew that Rosen had already transitioned to an advanced professional Dark Mage the moment he was ready to launch the Shadowless Kill, I'm afraid he wouldn't have planned to do so, and would have turned around and ran, like most of his men.
