Chapter 897: Another Surprise Attack
"That's a blind spot." Gentle whispered a chuckle.
"One Leaf Barrier...... What the? Wilhelm didn't understand the gentle words.
"It's okay, I think I've pretty much figured out what's going on, though I'm not sure yet."
The corners of Wen Wen's mouth hidden under the magic bandage rose slightly, he actually had a general idea in his heart, but even so, he didn't tell the mercenary leader in front of him the information that the "Dezun Order" might exist on Mount Jerrak.
If twenty years ago, the ruler of this area was a half-human rhinoceros, then everything seemed quite a coincidence, if the Dezun Order had really hidden in the Jerrak Mountains for so many years, how could the Jerrak Kingdom, which was founded by the mountains, know nothing about them as it does now, and the appearance of this frost and white fog just confirmed many conjectures in Wenwen's heart.
There must be something interesting hidden in the "forbidden land" at the top of Jerlak Mountain.
"In that case, I think I understand what the gentle boss means." After learning that the true face of this frost white mist was probably not the legendary "Lan Dragon", Wilhelm's mood suddenly improved a lot, and after calming down, even he could feel those clumsy magic traces in the white mist, because he was too nervous before, so he didn't notice these things at all, "In that case, then I think the intention of this frost white fog is also very obvious, just to prevent us from moving forward, right?" ”
"That's pretty much what it means." Gently nodded, "But didn't Boken ask you to go to the top of the mountain?" So you don't have any reason to say no, do you? ”
"Since that's the case, then gentle boss, I have to ask you a question that has been hidden in my heart all along." Wilhelm asked with a slow smile, "You...... Or what is the purpose of the Lord of the Demon Haze Family coming to Jerrak Mountain? ”
Feelings: This guy thinks he is Abaddon's retinue......
But that's fine.
"It's because I don't know why, that's why I haven't told you." Gentle decided to make a mistake and prevaricate the whole thing, "As you can see, although I am the boss who is in charge of everything on the surface, in fact, I am just working for others, not to mention that I don't tell you the purpose of our mountain, in fact, even I can't figure it out." ”
"Gentle boss, my favorability of you has risen a little now, originally I thought you were also a hypocritical human being, and then I played tricks with us, but I didn't expect that I blamed you wrongly." After hearing the gentle words, Wilhelm suddenly said to him sincerely, "In that case, then please forgive us for our previous rudeness, and you have brought such a crucial message, I am really ...... I don't know how to repay you. ”
"You don't have to repay me, just go to the top of the mountain safely." Wen Wen whispered, "Oh yes, that woman, don't be too anxious, this way, her mental state is very poor, and I can't ignore her life or death to find out something, after all, I'm just a businessman, not a murderer." ”
"Actually, that woman doesn't have much to do with us, the snow wolf robbers are only active in the area below, going back and forth to intercept and kill various indigenous villages and mercenary groups entering the mountains, but the position we are in now should be considered a forbidden area for them, so I think with the skills of those guys alone, they shouldn't be able to invade this harsh area."
"Although this is up to you, you still don't take it too lightly, you may pay the price of blood if you underestimate your enemies." Wen Wen dropped a word, then turned directly and walked back slowly towards the rear of the team, "Okay, Captain, let's stop the conversation, you don't have to worry too much about us, we will inform you when we are ready to leave." ”
Returning to Abaddon and Diagara, Wen Wen's mind had been thinking about the Dezun Order, and the whole team continued to move forward, although the speed was not fast, but at this time they were not too far from the summit of Mount Jerrak, and with Wilhelm's order, the whole caravan stopped in place and set up camp to prepare and rest.
The team had just stopped, and everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, but a piercing sound of breaking the air was suddenly heard in his gentle ears, and he barely thought about it, as soon as he raised his arm, he directly threw the two women beside him to the ground, and the arrow that shot out of the white mist was actually directly wrapped in the wind, nailing the pack ox that Diagara was sitting on before to this hard ice and snow earth!
"Enemy Attack ——————!!!"
The terrible roar accompanied by the "fluttering" flying feathers suddenly exploded like thunder, and the neighing of pack oxen and the roar of the orc mercenaries became the most gorgeous theme on the entire snowfield, gently pressing the two women to the ground, letting the arrows fly past his scalp, and the Abaddon behind them did not encounter any danger, anyway, around the chaotic battlefield with extremely poor visibility, he directly transformed his body into a misty form, allowing one powerful arrow after another to pass through his body.
On the one hand, the gentle reaction was extremely fast, he had reacted before the first feathered arrows were fired, and on the other hand, due to the fact that they were at the back of the line and were not the main targets of these arrows, however, the men in the caravan were not as lucky as they were, and nearly a quarter of the personnel were wounded by the arrows under the first wave of arrows.
Fortunately, these mercenaries are all powerful warriors with a lot of nerves, plus along the way, everyone's nerves are tense, so at this time, in the face of a sudden attack, there was no large-scale panic, the shield warriors are using their huge shields like door panels to protect the teammates behind them, and the mercenaries who are good at bows and arrows and magic quickly fight back at the fog around them, and some fighters who are good at melee combat seize this rare opportunity to quickly pull the injured teammates back behind the shield warrior's barrier, The skilful coordination was immediately apparent.
But even so, the attacks in the mist showed no signs of stopping, and the petite Yuna used her ice magic to create a huge ice shield on the side of the pack ox beneath her, shuttling back and forth among the crowd, wielding all kinds of ice auxiliary magic, and Lily in the center of the team also took off her big bow and fired back at the enemy with arrow after arrow.
