Chapter 111: First Battle Salamander

"This is the Flame Canyon?" Lawson looked around curiously, if you just talk about the scenery, I am afraid that there is no such shocking place on earth.

The surrounding cliffs are numerous, very dangerous, but there are irregular red traces on those mountain walls, and they will light up from time to time and emit heat to the surroundings, under the mountain walls, in the canyon, a valley formed by magma of different thicknesses, from a high place to look quite spectacular, in the valley can feel the scorching temperature, Lawson is already sweaty, the flame canyon is worthy of the name.

Lawson and they rested in Yongwang Town for one night, and before leaving, Lawson also went to the Adventurer's Guild to pick up a few commissioned tasks related to the Flame Canyon, and by the way, he earned some gold coins.

Not only Lawson, but also the team members were so hot that they couldn't sweat, sweating like rain, looking back, everyone was covered in sweat, especially Sasha and Asuka, the appearance of the wet body made people infinitely reverie.

Not only the team members, but also the two teachers who led the team, oh no, Dean Fei Fei doesn't seem to be hot...... It seems that within a meter radius of her side, you can feel the coolness.

Ice Blessing, after activating this spell, the effect of the next Frost type magic is increased by 100% for 30 minutes.

And this kind of operation? Humanoid air conditioner? Lawson immediately quietly launched one, and sure enough, his whole body was much cooler, at least the heat wave outside had been isolated by his body.

"According to the intelligence, further on is the salamander-infested area, and this only road extends beyond the valley, and it is necessary to pass through the salamander-infested area." Sasha said as she looked at the map.

Lawson looked around for a moment, then suggested, "We should be ready to fight and form a formation, after all, this area is infested with fire elementals and fire demons in addition to salamanders. ”

Behind them, Fei Fei and Dart glanced at each other, revealing a look of relief.

Lawson began to cast magic, frost grant can temporarily attach frost attributes to everyone's weapons, agility can improve everyone's actions and reactions, if not to hide their identity, here Lawson can at least add more than thirty buffs to everyone.

The tower unleashed a magic shield for everyone, slightly reducing damage, and Asuka unleashed a special ability of the orc cat clan, the Light Body Technique, which can increase everyone's jumping ability and reduce the recoil of falling from high places.

"Okay, it's your task to go forward, Teacher Dart and I will be waiting for you nearby, let's talk about it first, don't expect us to help, everything depends on you!" After Fei Fei finished speaking, he and Teacher Dart jumped to the mountain stream next to them, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving a few people looking at each other, what is the operation of jumping off the cliff without saying a word?

Lawson waved his hand: "They'll be fine, we'll keep the formation and move forward, and try to kill them without alarming a small number of enemies." ”

A few people nodded, and the two figures of the dwarf rushed forward with a hammer gradually disappeared, and after the forward launch, he would act as the eyes of the team, responsible for observing the surroundings. Sasha jumped to the front of the line and acted as an arrow. Lawson remained in the center of the group as a dark mage, in the center.

The tower is behind Lawson, and as a healer, he has to keep every teammate within his cast range. Actually, this guy is a warmonger, and if Rosen hadn't disagreed, he would have been overloaded at the front.

Asuka is at the end of the team, she has the farthest attack range in the team, she is naturally at the back of the team, even if there is an enemy behind her, it is not difficult for her, Asuka in addition to a gorgeous bow, melee ability is still good, the cat's claw in the beast state is no less than a sword, and when fighting with it, Lawson almost suffered a dark loss.

After arranging the formation, several people slowly advanced towards the danger area marked on the map.

One of the most obvious features of the Flame Canyon is that there are almost no plants, maybe some small plants that are resistant to high temperatures, but there are no trees or anything like that, so the view is quite clear.

The lava stretches on both sides of the road, some leading to mountain streams to form spectacular waterfalls, some of which are intertwined to form ornate patterns, and bubbles are bubbling from time to time on top of the lava, as if something exists underneath. Everyone in the training team maintained their formation and moved forward cautiously.

Sasha slowed down more and more, and in the end she almost moved side by side with Rosen, which made Rosen a little puzzled. But soon Rosen figured out the reason, because he was cool around him...... It's a pity that the Ice Blessing can't be used by others.

Suddenly, the voice of the scout's angry hammer rang out, "There's a battle ahead, someone is besieged by salamanders. ”

When they reached the top of a short high slope, they vaguely saw a figure fighting salamanders on a slightly larger rock in the middle of the stream, but it seemed that the figure was in critical condition, surrounded by several salamanders, and more salamanders were slowly crawling out of the magma on all sides.

If this situation goes to the rescue, it will definitely attract the attention of the Salamander King, and the training team will fall into a passive situation, who knows when this boss will launch a sneak attack. But if it is not rescued, it is not difficult to judge that it is injured just by looking at the movements of the figure, and the final fate can be imagined.

Rosen frowned slightly, in his opinion, it should be a caravan or traveler attacked, thought about it and said: "Prepare for battle, Angry Hammer is on alert around, Sasha and I will go to the rescue, the Iron Tower will follow behind us to be responsible for treatment, Angry Hammer will continue to keep vigilance around, especially keep an eye on the Salamander King, once it is found, immediately warn, but don't be brutal, the birds cover us." ”

In the end, Rosen chose to save people, no matter what, it was a life, and it did not conflict with the mission of this trip.

The order was given, and everyone did not object, and they all took their positions.

Lawson and Sasha looked at each other, and the two of them accelerated forward, and when they reached range, Lawson began to cast his magic. Sasha held the Scarlet Rose in her hand and jumped up and down on the rocky platform.

The women who were besieged on the platform were covered in blood, holding half-moon-shaped blades in both hands and trying to resist the attack of the salamanders, the attack was quite sharp, and there were already several corpses of salamanders next to them, and the strength of the women could be seen.

However, those salamanders are also quite intelligent, as if they know that the target has been injured and cannot hold on for long, except for two or three salamanders that are entangled in close proximity, the other salamanders all keep their distance, and from time to time a large fireball spews out of their mouths, and some salamanders also cast a range of firestorm magic, and they are not afraid of accidentally injuring their kind.

From a distance, the woman's steps were already a little shaky, and the surrounding ground was covered with blood, and the woman's abdomen, shoulders, and legs could be seen to have obvious scars, and it seemed that she couldn't hold out for long in front of the endless stream of salamanders.

"Ice Storm!"

As soon as he reached the casting distance, Lawson threw out the talent magic Ice Storm, targeting the center of the densest few salamanders, dealing with fire-attribute demonic beasts, there is no doubt that frost-type magic has the best effect. I saw that the salamanders instantly turned into turtles, and their fiery red bodies also turned white.

Immediately after that, the icicle aimed at a salamander that flew up, and the high-speed sharp icicle froze the guy in the air.

At the same time, Sasha jumped high and landed behind the woman, her rapier blocking the two salamanders that were sneaking up on her back.

"Are you alright?" Sasha, who blocked the sneak attack, looked back at the injured woman, but she didn't expect to see it up close, and was stunned for a moment, "Aunt Nightingale, why are you here!" ”

Lawson continuously cast ice attribute magic to firmly control the salamanders, and motioned for the tower to go to the rescue. The latter understood, nodded and rushed forward, the sound of footsteps causing a wave of vibration from the nearby ground, which no one could have imagined was caused by the priest.

Several healing spells in a row pulled the seriously injured and endangered nightingale back from the death line, and the distant bird cooperated with Lawson's magic to keep shooting the salamander, and the hit parts were all weak points such as eyes, ears, and abdominal weakness, giving full play to the bird's sharp bow technique.

"Beware of the possibility of the Salamander King appearing, and fight quickly." Lawson scolded that after the mana was almost consumed, he took a bottle of meditation potion and simply switched to a martial artist and rushed forward, beating up the salamanders who were slowed down.

It's the Iron Tower, this guy is worthy of the Titans, after treating the nightingale, he actually rushed forward, and the huge mace in his hand waved with momentum and even overshadowed Sasha, but the damage caused was almost meaningless. It can't be helped, the nature of the Titans is like this, and according to Rosen, it is really difficult for him to become a priest.

The battle is simpler than expected, the experience team members have not made a move except for the angry hammer, and have been guarding the area for the salamander king that may appear at the entrance of the cave, although the other four people have joined forces to cooperate is not tacit enough, but they are becoming more and more proficient, Fei Fei and Dart, who are secretly observing, keep nodding their heads to express their relief, and they will not appear in the future, unless the team members' lives are in danger.

In the end, the Salamander King did not appear, several people worked together to kill nearly twenty Salamanders, Lawson unceremoniously skinned and picked up the spoils of war to increase his proficiency, on the other side, after the seriously injured Nightingale was rescued, the tense nerves finally relaxed, and he passed out, but his life was fine, but he was too badly injured and lost too much blood.

After learning that Princess Sasha knew the assassin named Nightingale, Rosen did not inquire in detail, but took everyone to a nearby dead cave to rest for a while, after all, it is impossible to take this unconscious wounded person to challenge the boss, so there is no limit to this training mission, and it is not a big deal to rest for one more day.

The temperature in the cave is too high, Lawson has to cast an ice storm every once in a while, the cold air can last for about ten minutes, such a luxurious way to cool down is probably not enough for a pervert like Lawson who has a system, few magicians can do it.

The angry hammer is still in charge of guarding, the bird goes outside and does not know the trap, the guy who seems to have just consumed too much energy in the battle, fell asleep in the cave, and Sasha sat next to the nightingale and waited for her to wake up, with an anxious face.

As the princess of the kingdom, of course Sasha knows the identity of the nightingale, and occasionally the nightingale will teach Sasha some combat skills, I can't imagine that such a strong man would be seriously injured here? Doubts kept popping up, and Sasha was even worried that the kingdom had already perished, otherwise, how could Nightingale, as the governor of the Ministry of Intelligence, appear so far away?

Now, Sasha can only wait anxiously.
