Chapter Twenty-Seven: Flame, Fear
As for the two big cats, they were lying on the ground shivering.
Now they are very glad that they are cute and taken in by Angela, thinking about those very miserable human-faced spiders who were bullied, and only feel that it is the glory of their lives to be able to win Angela's favor.
On the other end, the adventurers and monsters, both sides of the original battle stopped fighting, and watched in amazement at the flames and black smoke rising into the sky in the distance.
Then, the wolves collapsed, and the goblins scattered in all directions.
Even sane gnolls and kobolds fled.
Flames, especially in the forest, are the most terrifying monsters, symbolizing destruction.
The reason why the dragon can become the king of monsters is because they have the power of fire, and the monsters are afraid not of the dragon's strong body, but of the dragon's spewing fire.
Whenever I see a dragon, I think of the flames, so I tremble, this is the so-called dragon power.
As for the adventurers, they did not chase and kill, but fled with the monsters.
Their goal is surprisingly unanimous, which is Clear Water Lake.
There, deadly flames can be resisted.
After running for a while, James suddenly stopped, looked at the gradually decreasing black smoke in the distance, gritted his teeth, and called a few friends.
"James, run!" The partner who was called looked anxious.
But James pointed over there and said, "Look, the smoke is decreasing. ”
"How is that possible?" A wild woman armed with a bow and arrow noticed something discordant, and her eyes were the best of James' companions: "The fire is gone." ”
James proposed, "Let's go and see." ”
"But that's not safe." A knight in full plate armor said.
James reminded, "All of you, think of that weird thing that happened last night. ”
"Fire, flame, bonfire." The clever female archer's eyes lit up, and then she asked, "James, you mean it's probably a wizard who did it." ”
James nodded, "Although it had a very bad impact last night, that wizard didn't hurt anyone, it was not so much some evil plan as a pure prank." So we have reason to believe that he is human, and think about it, if we can have a wizarding teammate. ”
For an aspiring adventurous team, it's a temptation that's hard to resist.
Warriors, wizards of justice, this is the standard for adventure teams in the legendary story.
"Okay, I'll agree to go over."
"I agree."
The huge spear head poked out and crushed the head of a snake.
James put away his gun and looked at the charred black in front of him, as well as the charred corpses, and said that was indeed the case.
He was now completely sure that it was definitely the handiwork of a wizard.
James smiled and said happily, "It seems that this is a powerful wizard who has mastered the power of fire. ”
Wizards are inherently mysterious, and wizards who wield the power of fire are rare and destructive.
"Look at it." The female archer reminded.
When the people looked up, they saw corpses dangling overhead.
A lean man dressed as a classic online game thief in leather armor climbed a tree, cut the ropes, and his body fell with a bang.
The knight stepped forward to inspect him, touched the back of his neck, and then said with an experienced look: "The cervical vertebra has been broken, and this force is quite strong." ”
"And the corpses." An old man dressed as a hunter walked up to the two charred corpses and said, "These two corpses were not burned, but died before they were burned, hiss...... What a powerful method, this is definitely from the hand of a master thief. ”
"I'll see." The thief jumped down from the tree, examined the corpse, and said to himself: "This blow is from above, piercing the throat with a short knife, and accurately picking the cervical vertebrae, so that the opponent cannot use any power to fight back." ”
As he spoke, he inspected another corpse and looked at the chain armor that had been burned by the flames: "The other party has armor, and it is difficult to cut it with a short knife, so he cleverly broke the hamstrings of this jackal first, and then wiped his neck." It is indeed a good method, and it definitely comes from the hands of the masters. ”
Then he raised his head and said to James: "Boss, I'm afraid the other party already has a companion." ”
"It's also possible that it's not a companion." The old hunter's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light: "Don't forget, the other party is a wizard, think about what one of the scared guys said last night, his dead companion came to him, maybe it was something strange." ”
The female archer nodded, and said with a serious face, "It's also very likely." ”
"If that's the case, we'll have to be careful." The old hunter said with some concern, he was the oldest and most experienced in the team, so he naturally thought more about them: "And if this wizard is the same as the one who caused trouble last night, it means that there are at least three people on the other side, or two unnatural creatures, or something else, and we can't help but be careless when we come into contact with them. ”
"Hahahaha......" Looking at the frowning brows of his companions, James showed a hearty smile: "It doesn't have to be like this, let's just go and meet and confirm whether the other party is a righteous partner, if so, we will invite them to join, if not, whether it is war or peace, and then we will talk about it, anyway, we are not afraid." ”
Looking at the heroic James, the old hunter sighed, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously put on a smile, yes, this is Angeles justice, this is the person he follows.
With a bold personality, strong strength, and high charisma, he has all the potential of a hero.
"Who!" The old hunter, the beautiful archer, and the thief all turned at the same time, looking at the slightly swaying grass.
"Boom" two strings sounded, and a one-and-a-half-foot-long crossbow arrow and a three-foot-plus feathered arrow shot out at the same time like lightning.
However, it was the thief's dagger that sank into the grass first.
With a clang, the dagger was flicked off, the knife flashed, and the innocent grass was instantly shattered.
There were two more dings, and two arrows broke.
The cloak straightened instantly, Angela's body pressed against the ground, her hands dragged behind her back, and she sped forward in a strange posture.
The old hunter threw out a trap and retreated with the beautiful archer, a large body in front of them, a young and strong knight, his shield like a wall, between Angela and the two rangers.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, no one thought that Angela would be able to quickly pass through the knight's defenses with two short knives.
However, they didn't know that the moment Angela saw the knight, the [Electric Shock Technique] had already begun to prepare, and by now, the time was just right, and the silver sparks of the short knife blade jumped.
The trap was easily crossed, and the two sides quickly approached, making contact......
