Act XVI Journey (II)

When you first enter Death Canyon, this secluded place is nothing less terrifying than it is legendary.

The blue moss grows on the ancient stone slabs, and a little crack gives the place a historical charm. Trees are planted everywhere, and the green vegetation thrives under the water of sunlight and rain. The carriage of Avis and the others ran over the stone slabs that had long been in disrepair, but the stones that they encountered from time to time could make the car jolt slightly.

In this case, it is naturally not suitable to read a book. Avis closed the book and looked up at him. The black ramparts almost obscured the sky, and the travelers could only see a glimmer of sunlight shining through the canyon. Avis's gaze looked down the summit of the canyon, where there were only a few plants on the yellow-brown stone walls. Avis also saw signs of animal life—eagles covered in golden fur, green snakes ten meters long, and some unknown creatures jumping. Further down the line of sight, there are low, unbridled vegetation. The cyan stone slabs were covered with the marks of human footsteps. The carriage staggered through the valley that represented death, and the light of the sun shone on the way.

Ge Tongluo, who was playing with the dagger, suddenly said, "Wait a minute, stop the car." ”

So the carriage stopped. The expensive purebred plain horse paced in place for a moment, uttered the cry of 'Herod', and stopped moving. Seeing that the coachman and Avis were looking at him curiously, Ge Tongluo turned over and got out of the car directly, and said to Avis: "Get ready for battle." ”

"Huh?" Ives was a little stunned, "Why? ”

"Because we're probably going to have some less friendly 'guests.'" Ge Tongluo took the dagger in his hand and came to the grass beside him. He poked it in, then grabbed something and dragged it out. When he saw this, Avis took out his staff and put it in his hand without hesitation, and his expression was also a little wary. His hand bent slightly, pinching the magic scroll he had placed in his ** pocket, the mage armor. At a critical moment, such a shield that can protect the owner can save lives.

It was a corpse. He was wearing fine iron armor, but at this time, this armor did not show any signs of damage. His fatal wound seemed to be a vicious blow to the throat, and it could be seen from the terrible wound that there must have been a lot of blood sprayed at that time. Our Mr. Wanderer also found some blood stains on the ground that had been deliberately concealed.

As a dragon mage, Ives is naturally sensitive to all kinds of smells in the air. He followed his sixth sense to the grass on the side, looked at the grass, and then gritted his teeth and said, "There are ...... here."

"Is it a passing caravan that has been attacked?" Ives straightened up and looked at Ge Tongluo. As for the coachman...... At this time, he was already trembling and hiding to the side.

Ge Tongluo's brows furrowed slightly, his right hand did not let go of the hilt of the dagger at his waist, his gaze swept around, and finally said, "No...... The deceased was not a member of the caravan. See them here no. Ge Tongluo crouched down in front of a corpse, his hand touching the right chest on his armor. It's not as smooth as other places where you can reflect people's shadows. There are obvious traces of polishing here.

"This armor was snatched." Ge Tongluo said, "Because they come from the wrong way, these robbers often have the habit of grinding off the label. And ......" Ge Tongluo turned the person in front of him again, and then said: "This guy is ** wine-colored, which can be seen from the fact that he still has a pot of wine behind him." I'm not saying that mercenaries don't do this, but after all, it's an organized team, and they don't let everyone carry something as bad as alcohol - it's the safest way to keep it together. Only unorganized and undisciplined bandits carry this thing, and they will take a sip before each battle to boost morale. ”

"How could anyone attack a robber?" Avis said with some confusion. He stood up directly, his sharp gaze scanning around. When you look closely, you'll see that there are still deep traces of battle on the ground. Although it was buried, it couldn't escape the eyes of Avis and Ge Tongluo.

"Who knows." Ge Tongluo stood up, "Infighting? Is there a righteous demon present? Or maybe you've got a tricky mercenary team? I'm more curious, why do these people bury the battlefield? ”

Before Ge Tongluo could figure it out, he heard some footsteps. Turning back, he saw something approaching in front of him. Ge Tongluo did not hesitate to hold the dagger in his right hand, but his left hand was hidden. Avis knew that Ge Tongluo had a hidden arrow in his left hand, which could be used to make a fool of himself at the most critical moment. How so...... It should be very suitable for a sinister and cunning person like Ge Tongluo! Ives defined it in his mind.

Then, Ge Tongluo showed those things...... It was a group of slow-moving white skeletons, worn-out scimitars in their hands, and there seemed to be a little burning blue flame in their hollow eye sockets. Although it was daytime, the surrounding environment gave these skeletons a hint of gloomy aura.

"Ahhh Help me! The coachman screamed in panic. Evis turned his head and said to the coachman, "Stay in the carriage for the time being, and we'll end the battle soon." "The challenge level of the skeleton is level 1, and Avis, who already has level 4, is naturally worthy of him. What's more, there is a level 5 wanderer beside him!

As soon as Ge Tongluo's body was short, the whole person fell into shadows, making it impossible to detect his existence. It was really impossible to feel his existence—neither from his breath, nor from his heartbeat, nor from his steps, to perceive Ge Tongluo, who was now one with his surroundings.

Where the specialty - advanced stealth.

Avis took out his light crossbow and aimed it at the staggering skeletons and began shooting. Although the hit rate was a little low, the skeletons fell one by one. Eventually, Avis activated the scroll and added the spell 'Mage Armor' to himself. As the skeletons approached Avis, he began to chant incantations.

A decaying scimitar slashed at Avis, but the blow was blocked by the mage's armor and didn't do much damage to Avis. Avis looked around him, and there were probably a dozen skeletons around him.

(A dozen...... That's enough! ）

Then, as soon as Ives finished his final incantation, a large flame burst out around his body. The wave of fire centered on him and enveloped a radius of about four meters around him. The terrible wave burned the poor white bones of the necromancers, and eventually, the skeletons shook their bodies and fell to the ground, some of them even turned into ashes-like powder.

Avis then raised his hand, and a cloud of cobwebs erupted from his hand. The cobwebs crushed directly to the ground, layers upon layers of milky white webs that bound most of the skeletons that had not yet had time to get close to him. And with the poor strength of skeletons, it is also difficult for them to break free from the shackles of spider web in a short period of time.

Ives also noticed that a figure appeared behind the skeletons from time to time, smacked their heads with the turquoise dagger, and then turned invisible again after performing a 'backstab'. This also made Ives sigh - Fan's specialty is really a bug-level being.

In Ellen Thea University 6, any profession that reaches a multiple of level 5 can obtain a general specialty. Regardless of whether you have a bonus specialty at this level or not, you can choose an additional one of these specializations. And all expertise is the biggest factor that makes professionals different from mortals.

For example, the warrior's specialties such as 'Arcane Mastery', 'Rank Strong', 'Tenacious Will', 'Sword Storm'...... Each of these specialties allows a warrior to have the possibility of even playing against mages of the same level!

And the 'advanced stealth' chosen by Ge Tongluo also belongs to the category of mortal expertise. Potency increases the success rate of stealth by 4o%, and it has the attribute 'Undetectable'. In other words, except for a few magical means, no one can see through Ge Tongluo's stealth. Therefore, although Ge Tongluo has low attack and low HP, and is not immune to magic, he is still an extremely good wanderer.

Avis then took out his crossbow and killed the skeletons one by one. In the end, only three skeletons struggled to get in front of Avis, and Ge Tongluo, who was released from invisibility, killed him one by one from behind.

After doing this, Ge Tongluo said to Avis, "How can there be necromancy in this place? ”

Avis shook his head: "Actually, I'm curious too...... Anyway, I've seen the necromancers twice on this trip, is Vidora really the same as the legend says, a country without necromancy? ”

Ge Tongluo's brows furrowed: "It's really hard to see the necromancer in the realm of Vidora...... Let's go, we'd better cross this canyon before dark. Now, this place may be real, worthy of the name 'Death Canyon'......"

Ives was also somewhat silent. At night, he really didn't have the confidence to deal with the hordes of necromancers...... The combat power of this dark clan at night will be doubled.
