Chapter Twenty-Eight: Iron Wolf Daizik
Lancet lay on the ground, gasping for air. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Thank you, Mara, I'm glad you read my hint." He made a false gesture towards the female mage, causing Moria, on horseback, to glare at him fiercely.
Lancet smiled nonchalantly and rolled over to his feet. Then he motioned for Moriath to move back, and jumped on his horse with great skill.
"Drive!" He clamped his feet between the horse's belly, and the horse raised its front hooves and galloped towards the other end of the wall of fire.
……
"How far is that guy from us?" Lancet asked as he turned to the raven in mid-air.
Just now they had completely left the area of the fire, and darkness had returned to all around. Luckily, there was a cold moonlight in the sky, and Lancet saw no different from the daytime with his dim half-elf vision, but the horses below him didn't have the same skills as he did.
If he hadn't been concentrating on the reins, the horse would have crashed into a tree.
At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic for his former unicorn.
The ability to attack, assist, and control enemies with unicorn mounts was a highly sought-after luxury item for all players at the time.
And owning a unicorn mount is definitely a symbol of status and status.
I don't know when or when I'll be able to get another mount like that.
"It's not far behind you, don't slow down."
Ed's voice pulled Lancet out of his previous fantasies.
He glanced back and saw Dezik behind him clenching at him like a maggot on his tarsal bones.
The Iron Wolf Leader rode a dark horse with a curse on it, and Lancet could tell at a glance that it was supposed to be the product of the summoning statue.
Summoning statues, as the name suggests, are creatures that can be used to summon the creatures depicted by the statues themselves.
Just like the Iron Wolf Leader is now riding this cursed black horse, it is definitely summoned by a mount statue depicting horses.
Although Lancet had the advantage of vision in the dark, the weight of the opposing horse's weight was much lighter than on his side.
This is also the reason why he has not been able to get rid of the other party from beginning to end.
Lancet also knew that it would not be long before the two of them would be overtaken by Dezik, because even if the horse ran fast now, it would not be able to compare to the statue mount, which did not require physical exertion and would not slow down.
Looks like we'll have to figure out a way.
"Moria!" The witcher turned his head sideways and shouted to the mage behind him, "Do you know how to ride a horse?" ”
"What?" The female mage was stunned by his question, and then quickly shook her head, "I never touched this thing before I left the obelisk......
"Good!" Ranster nodded, leaned over and wrapped his arms around the female mage's waist, and carried her in front of him despite her vocal objections.
"Now you can study hard!" Lancet patted Moria's shoulder, tucked the reins into her hand, and taught her how to steer the horse.
"Remember, clamp your legs!" In the end, he was not at ease and deliberately advised, "If you don't want to break your neck, then clamp your legs!" ”
As he spoke, Lancet slapped the mage's thigh twice, causing her to reflexively clamp the horse's belly.
In this case, Moriah was not in the mood to care about Lancet's actions just now, she had a premonition of what might happen next.
"Don't go down, you're no match for him." The female mage grabbed Ranster's hand hard, and there was a pleading look in her eyes.
"If I don't go, you and I will be caught up by him sooner or later, and I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you at that time." As he spoke, he patted the back of Moria's hand, and then gently put his hands on the horse's back, and the whole person had fallen to the ground.
"Follow the moon and don't stop." Ranster's words slowly reached the ears of the female mage, and Moriah gritted her teeth and fell on her horse's back.
Lancet turned around and saw that the Black Horse of the Iron Wolf Leader had galloped towards him. After seeing him, the other party immediately changed the route of travel, obviously trying to bypass him by going around in circles.
If it's so easy to let him get around himself, what's the point of Lancet jumping off the horse?
The witcher's left hand began to draw arcane energy from his body, and the palm glowing with a flaming red light was aimed at the direction that the Iron Wolf Leader Dezik was about to travel, casting the fire spell that had been charged until now.
The shockwave of the flames was like a fiery serpent, instantly devouring everything visible in front of him. Trees were charred, and wildflowers, weeds, and dwarf shrubs were burned to ashes.
Dezik was already keenly aware of the danger when Lancet's hand glowed red, and he jumped off the dark horse just in time to avoid being shattered by the flame blaster, just like the summoned statue.
Looking at the back of the female mage gradually disappearing into the darkness through the firelight, the Iron Wolf Leader was not so anxious. He's holding Moria's Resonance Crystal, and he'll find her wherever she goes.
And the half-elf in front of him, who has no tension at all, is the person he hates the most.
All of his men, including the war trolls, had all died at the hands of this damn fellow, and if he hadn't been torn to pieces, Dezik knew he would never get a good night's sleep.
Now, the opportunity is in front of you.
"Praise Mara!" Dezik praised sincerely, convinced that he was still a believer in the goddess of life.
"Finally ......," he sighed as he walked across from Lancet with a relaxed smile on his face.
"It's finally time to really get into a fight."
"I feel the same way." Randster held his sword in his right hand and took a fighting stance, looking at the Iron Wolf Commander opposite him with a cautious expression.
Dezik slowly drew the greatsword behind him and lunged at Lancet without warning.
The weapons of the two men collided with fierce sparks in the hazy moonlight.
The Iron Wolf Leader was much stronger than Lancet in terms of strength and defense, as could be seen in the greatsword he wielded and the scale armor he wore.
And Lancet has established a clear advantage in intelligence and perception, and his long-term training pace and accumulated combat experience help him all the time.
Dezik swung his greatsword and slashed at the top of Ranster's head, as if he wanted to split him in half. Lancet jumped quickly to the side and back, and was able to dodge the fierce blow of his opponent.
Both sides then cautiously kept a short distance, looking for flaws in the other's movements.
"Didn't your master say that he wanted to spare my life?" Lancet gasped slightly, he found that his physical strength was rapidly declining during the battle.
It's no wonder that Lanster has such a feeling, from the Iron Wolf Mercenary Regiment's sneak attack on the returning team during the day to the current confrontation with Dezik, he not only consumes a lot of physical strength, arcane energy, but also consumes a lot of energy.
"If you can't think of a trick, I guess I won't be able to see the sun tomorrow." Lancet looked at the moon that had begun to set, and knew that the light of dawn was about to come.
