Chapter 087: Despair in the Shadows
"Hey, are you there?" Gascquelo asked with a serious and low expression.
Woody and Alex, the two unlucky ghosts, had already arrived at the location they had just arrived at with the mercenary group, but they didn't find the figure of the giant rat monster, Woody was sweating, swallowed his saliva and whispered:
"That's it."
Baron Kent was furious: "You two scum actually lied to me? Where are the rat monsters, Gascono chops off their hands! ”
Woody and Alex knelt on the ground and pleaded, "My lord, we didn't deceive you, it must be around here." ”
Darian, the deputy head of the assassin class, glanced at the faint light plant in the distance, and nodded to the head of the long-haired man beside him:
"This is indeed the location."
They had purchased information from the Adventurer's Guild and knew that where there were fluorescent grass plants, rats had escaped, and they could even find their excrement around fluorescent plants.
The long-haired man followed his partner's line of sight to see a faint light in the distance, nodded, and understood what he meant.
"Lord Baron, the two of them are right, the giant rat monster and the rat king may be somewhere around."
Baron Kent frowned: "Is that so?" Hey, you two guys lure them out for me! ”
Woody and Alex broke out in a cold sweat, the two of them were weak chickens with low strength and no equipment, they didn't want to face the terrible creature just now, they looked at the long-haired leader, longing for the other party to show mercy.
Deputy Captain Darian looked at the pitiful attitude of the two of them and was about to cry bitterly, "Gassco, I'll go and investigate, these two people have lost their value, and rashly sending them will startle the snake, you wait, I'll take a look." ”
"Deputy Commander, let's go, my concealed ability and speed are not slower than yours, I am the right person." At this time, Fawkes stopped Deputy Captain Darien from asking for a look.
Gasscoe heard the team members ask for their own lives, and saw that Fawkes was in a thief's outfit, and thought that he was indeed more suitable for reconnaissance than the assassin's outfit who was good at attacking, so he nodded in agreement with him.
"Go ahead, be careful, if you don't come out in ten minutes, we'll just come in."
Fawkes drank a bottle of [Faint Vision Potion] worth fifty silver coins, and said confidently and softly:
"Commander, understood. Just wait for my news. ”
So the thief who was the first to enter the rat king's lair, that is, was secretly bribed by the Baron of Kent, with the intention of making money and shining Jinsok, slowly sneaked away to the gravel path beyond the sewer in front of him, the dangerous and dark and damp lair.
From time to time, he opened his miner's hat on his head and explored the terrain with charcoal on parchment, meticulously recording the fluorescent grass that glowed blue and almost white in the darkness as evidence that rodents had once excreted here.
Someone went to explore the way, and the two unlucky ghosts, Woody and Alex, were kicked out by the Supper Mercenary Group, leaving them at the door of this treacherous Rat King's lair to act as bait to lure the mutant iron eaters around.
Ping-pong, ping-pong, ping-pong......
The Night Stalker mercenaries set up torches around them and began to kill the mutant iron rats around them, and began to clear the field as the last trap position during the mission, preventing the team from losing and causing the team to be wiped out.
A few minutes later, there were more than two dozen mutant iron rats more than a meter long lying on the ground, and Woody and Alex, who were used as bait, were already covered in scratches and blood.
Gasscoe saw the two poor adventurers gasping for breath and looking like they were about to die, threw out a bag of copper and said coldly in front of them:
"You two can get out, don't affect the battle we will meet, if you show me the two of you later, I will immediately cut off one of each of you's thigh, get out."
The two grabbed the bulging money bag and left in embarrassment, leaving blood dripping on the ground, and there were traces of a large amount of blood rubbing around the corner.
"Ah!!!h
Not long after Woody and Alex fled, a terrible cry was heard in the distance, and the painful screams entered their ears, causing goosebumps to rise to the two timid and low-strength adventurers.
Alex hugged Woody and said fearfully, "Let's hurry up, we can't deal with even ten of that huge rat monster just now." ”
"Well, let's go." Woody's injury was much more serious than Alex's, and there were already more wounds on his legs that went deep into the bones and were bloody, as the leader of the team, he could only endure the severe pain and nodded in understanding, and then remembered that the other party was carrying something, gasped and waited for him to say:
"Alex, you must not use that, we are not heretics, we still have time to go out now."
Alex bit his lower lip when he heard his teammates' words, he didn't think that the two who were seriously injured could get out alive, but when he heard each other's words, he still nodded and agreed to each other with tears in his eyes,
"Yes."
Tick...... Tick...... The sound of water droplets rings in my ears,
The two of them walked in the quiet sewer with each other's arms, and the two walked for a long time with small steps, but they never saw the corresponding fireplace hook by the wall, and the despair and fear in their hearts became stronger and stronger, and slowly submerged the two of them, making their breathing more and more rapid, like fish about to suffocate on the desert.
Woody held the stone blade and whispered, "We are not heretics......"
Bang! The two of them stepped on a thick rat's tail with each other, only to see a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly light up, and the smell of fishy smell rushed into their noses.
Seriously injured, physically deprived, and most of the blood flowed out, the two of them closed their eyes in despair in the gloom, trembling and waiting for death, and cried out in their mouths:
"Ahhhh
At this critical moment, a loud voice full of energy came from not far away from my ears:
"Shield Strike!"
Rumble!
The one-meter-high and four-meter-long giant iron-eating rat was knocked away by a sudden figure, followed by a loud sound and then the sound of impact again,
In the flickering firelight, the two saw clearly that it was William Lee, who had given them brioche bread, and the two collapsed to the ground like mud with a sigh of relief.
William Li glanced at the two of them, and continued to use the charge to ram the huge rat monster in front of him, the [Elite Mutant Iron Eater].
The giant mutant iron devouring rat was successfully struck by the charge, and was stunned for a second, and then William Li swung a short sword attached to the flame and slashed at the giant rat, making a fast-paced crisp slashing sound.
Elite's mutant Iron Rat jumps out of "-61" capital critical damage.
[You hit target creature, you trigger critical damage!] This attack turns into a critical attack. ]
The Elite Mutant Iron Rat jumps out of two white normal values of "-21", "-42", and "-19" and one capital critical damage.
[You hit the deadly part!] This attack turns into a lethal attack! ]
William Lee cleanly unleashed a series of attacks, taking away the life of the elite rat monster.
[You kill [Elite Mutant Iron Eater], one-handed weapon proficiency points +20, and finally gain one-handed weapon proficiency points +30 according to the effect of the Time Effect specialty]
After confirming the results of the giant rat's death, William Li turned his head and smiled: "You are safe." ”
