Chapter 8: The Broken Scroll
Harpies are not highly intelligent, and the system is simple, with the race obeying the most powerful creature until that creature dies or a more powerful banshee appears. It wasn't realistic to kill the entire clan, so the team targeted the leader early.
"Sorry to interrupt, the so-called Harpy Leader, have you seen it?"
As the team continued to move forward in concealment, Green asked quietly while holding the little fox in his clothes in one hand.
"Generally speaking, boss creatures are a little bit bigger." Dax replied in a muffled voice, this answer Green was quite reasonable, after all, the leaders enjoyed privileges, and the priority of food alone was enough for them to grow strong and strong.
"The leader of the harpy is not difficult to identify, except for its size, it also enjoys the privilege of living alone," she said, reaching out and pointing with the tip of her sword at the cliff in the distance, where there was also a bird's pavilion built in the gap, but it looked larger, "That's the leader's dwelling we found earlier." ”
Green acknowledges this, and the squad has done a decent amount of pre-war work, but it's just ......
"That Bird Pavilion...... How are you going to climb up? ”
"Climb?" The cave man touched the tooth decoration on his body, and suddenly turned his head to "streak" at Green, "Why do you want to climb up?" ”
"We are not going to assassinate the chief," said Helika sternly, "we are going to kill him from the front." ”
Green suddenly felt a little deprived of oxygen, "You mean ......!?" ”
"Here it is." Before Helika could respond, the Minotaur Captain Gengna suddenly stood still, and the team immediately stopped moving forward. The group stopped in the middle of a clearing, facing the Leader Bird's Pavilion on the cliff, and Gengna waved his arms before throwing his horn at Daxdor.
"You, stay safe." "Huh?"
Daxtor and Green gave a command, and then strode forward, holding the axe in one hand, and raising the five fingers of the other hand to his waist flat, and the color of the mist quickly appeared on his palm.
Magic Arrow!
Green shouted wildly in his heart, this low-level magic that has been used indiscriminately in the game, even if he is a fighting swordsman, the starting style is too familiar to be familiar.
"Drink!"
The minotaur quickly condensed the shape of the spell, and after instantly estimating the flight trajectory, the magic arrow with a rough shape like a spear came out of his hand. The underworld was so dim that when the magic streaked through the air, it brought out a ray of light. I don't know why, the moment the magic arrow was fired, the tribal leader happened to crouch on the edge of the Bird Pavilion, and the moment the magic landed on the Bird Pavilion and exploded, it provided an extremely short vision for the team below.
"Not good!"
Green saw the leader's defeated appearance at a glance, and after countless combat experiences, he quickly identified the identity of the enemy. At the same moment, the tribal leader on the Bird Pavilion screamed in anger, and the piercing howl was like a spreading beacon fire, igniting the anger of the Harpy Tribe.
"Gengna, what's that!?" Also seeing the leader's face was Silica, the human warrior with a stern expression and asked the captain as the banshees burst out of the lair before they could attack. Genna the Minotaur was also puzzled, he shook his head, "I don't know, I've never seen a harpy like that!" ”
The young man's resolute voice suddenly sounded.
"It's the Harpy!"
The team's gaze immediately fell on Grimm, and everyone's expressions were both surprised and dazed, "Hippogriff? What is that? Captain Gengna asked everyone's questions.
Green followed the harpy banshees in the air, and quickly explained, "Just like skeletons can advance to skeleton warriors," he patted his hand unhappily, "Harpys can also be advanced, and the one who transforms into is the Harpy Witch." ”
"It's just a bigger stinky bird!" Ellache shouted through gritted teeth.
"Not only bigger, but it stinks even more - so stinky that you can't fight back!" Green stared at the banshee in the sky, and subconsciously licked his chapped lips.
Two minotaurs stood at the outermost of the line with their weapons in their arms, and Helika and Erache stood in their positions. Gengna stared at the Harpy Witch, who was always screaming on the Bird Pavilion, and asked loudly, "Green! What do you mean by that? ”
"The Harpy Witch has a higher dominance, and is as good at rapid attacks as the Harpy in terms of individual strength, and strictly implements the principle of 'one blow and leaves', but the danger is that the Harpy Witch has a positive F type toxin on its claws, which will cause instantaneous nerve paralysis when it cuts the wound, and the guide zhì cannot effectively counterattack it!" The harpies kept lowering in height, and the young men shouted faster and faster due to nervousness, and Helica had to translate to Genna in the language of the giants.
"Then don't let it touch your body." When Helika finished translating, Daxdo immediately shouted. Gengna agreed, but suddenly noticed a strange light on the Bird Pavilion where the Harpy Witch was located.
"One more thing!" Something began to fall quickly in the air, and Green had to shout while writhing around to avoid this thin and smelly "hidden weapon".
Dax tightened the round axe in his hand, staring at the shiny Bird Pavilion with bull's eyes, "You, you'd better hurry up!" ”
"It also uses magic!"
The young man's shout was like a whistle, and the cliff exploded like thunder, and a blinding thunderbolt suddenly collapsed!
“Zaa-la-la!!!”
Lightning burst through the plasma in the middle of the team, the dazzling light like a marker for the attacking target, and dozens of harpies screamed in unison, attacking the squad that fell on all sides in the light. For the leader's miscalculation, the team lost the initiative, and the Harpy's first attack, although it failed to kill any of the team members, completely broke up the team, Genna and Daxdo were besieged at one end, and Helika and Eracher were besieged at the other end. Each side was surrounded by more than ten harpies, and in a short period of time, no one could get out and reinforce others.
As for Greenfield......
"Uh-huh!! Why me! ”
Terrifying cries echoed over Nigon, blocked by unimaginable rock formations, and bounced back into the underworld.
With a thud, the young man was thrown to the ground. Green was smashed to pieces, and he easily got to his feet, with crunchy branches and rancid dry bones beneath him, and the strange touch reminded him of what had just happened in the lightning and stonefire. He suddenly looked up, and the harpy witch who had sneaked up on him was staring at him, looking like he was standing outside the KFC window when he was a child, staring at the hamburger drumsticks on someone else's table.
But the problem is that Green never takes someone else's hamburger drumstick home! He even fell on the table!
"Damn, I'm so good at it?" Green cursed in his heart, this body must be a hundred pounds to say the least, this harpy witch has too good a physique!
There was a click, and the harpy sage that moved forward stomped on a dead log.
The great cause of complaining was interrupted, and Green's spirit was highly concentrated. There was no minotaur, only himself - and a little fox. At this moment, his life is threatened, and he can't be allowed to think wildly.
So he shook his hand and opened the system pet panel.
"Not happy!"
Green roared with all his might, and the sound rang from the Bird Pavilion high in the sky to the skeletal warriors besieged by the Harpy below.
"You can't save him! You can't do anything! Erache exhorted. Not happy to be besieged by the caveman, with this brave skeleton, there is basically no danger on the caveman's side, and of course Eracher doesn't want it to leave.
But he was not happy to just glance at him, and in the dark eye hole, the lonely soul fire flickered, even if Arache had no vision, he subconsciously felt a chill in his heart.
The next moment, a black hole-like twisted space appeared in front of Unhappy, and the Skeleton Warrior took a step without hesitation.
Horizontal split!
The second step of the Skeleton Warrior had already appeared in front of Grimm, the sharp stone in his hand just in the way of the Harpy Witch's claws.
"Block it!"
Green gave the order with palpitations, and immediately waved the sharp stone in his hand to fight, and while the harpy witch was entangled, Green turned and ran.
He wasn't running for his life, at least on this Bird Pavilion built on the mountain, there was no safe exit at all, not to mention that with the strength of the unhappy first-order creatures, he couldn't stop the Harpy Witch for long.
Green knew very well that he knew that the only chance of life at this moment was in the depths of this Bird Pavilion.
"Found it!"
The sound of the fight behind him faded away, and Green finally found the target—a pile of debris piled up like garbage! For the Harpy, the foul-smelling bones may be a favorite thing to decorate the lair, but for those brave enough to trespass into the Harpy's lair, the place can be rewarding - for the Harpy only meat is valuable, and the gold and silver treasures are discarded. Grimm is not very bold, but he has already "broken into" the lair, and maybe he has no intention of looting money now, but this does not mean that the "garbage" picked up by the Harpy Witch does not contain items that can be used in battle!
A frenzied mole-like gouging was first exchanged for a sharp iron sword and a round shield.
"No, I can't beat it now."
Grey was a little discouraged, and suddenly thought of being unhappy again, and immediately summoned the skeleton warrior to his eyes, snatched its sharp stone with his hand, replaced it with an iron sword, and kicked it out, "Go on, block it for me!" He turned and buried himself in the loot of the Harpy.
Outside, the sound of metal striking was incessant.
Green sweated on his forehead, turning things over faster and faster, and more and more items he filtered out.
Gradually, the sounds of battle outside began to approach, which represented the total suppression of unhappiness. Grimm was so anxious that he barely looked at it, hoping for something that would save his life and defeat the Harpy. In the hurried rummaging room, a piece of worn-out brown paper was thrown away by Green.
"Wait!"
Startled, he turned around and pulled out the piece of vellum. It looked as if it was part of a torn scroll, and the young man could vaguely make out the symbol in the upper left corner, which was supposed to represent the colored seven rings of the Mage's Capital, while the first four characters on the paper were written in three languages: the lingua franca, the language of the giants, and the language of gold. Green worked hard to translate these four letters, word by word, "Yuan...... Plain...... Bump...... Hit? ”
He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly stood up, looking as excited as if he had picked up the treasure.
"It's ...... This is the [Magic Fist]! ”
