Chapter 29: The Trial of the Valley (2)
The second wave of monsters was mixed with tall skeletons of indistinguishable races, as well as various beast skeletons. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info think of all the unlucky people who strayed into this place, or the reckless adventurers who want to come here to explore.
In addition, as Yang Shou expected, skeleton archers began to appear in the second wave of monsters.
Yang Shou's coping strategy is very clear, ordinary skeleton archers have limited strength in shooting feather arrows, and their lethality will be sharply reduced if they exceed twenty meters.
Yang Shou carefully kept his distance from the archers, and gave priority to blocking the feathered arrows with his sword; It was too close, so he picked up the shield dropped by the Skeleton Warrior, held the sword in one hand and the shield in the other, and rushed forward to kill the archers first.
On the other side, Jane was much calmer, the long sword in his hand was like electricity, and no matter how many arrows shot over, all of them were blocked by the long sword cleanly, and Yang Shou was envious.
This is the advantage of speed-based swordsmanship, which is both chic and practical.
Ten minutes later, the two broke through the second wave of undead creatures and successfully reached the next resting position.
However, seeing the third wave of monsters, Yang Shou couldn't help frowning and touched his stubble-growing chin.
Normally, the third wave of monsters would be a combination of elite skeleton warriors and elite archers, with only a small number of monsters left in the normal template. But the third wave of monsters refreshed out, but Yang Shou saw the figures of two skeleton mages in the opponent's formation!
What's the situation, why did the law monster appear so early?
"One by one, kill the mage first!"
Yang Shou shouted at Jian decisively, and as he spoke, the person had already rushed to the right, holding the tattered round shield, and went straight to the skeleton mage in the strange group!
The skeleton mage had a rudimentary intelligence, and when he saw that Yang Shou rushed over as if he was dying, he immediately commanded the surrounding skeleton warriors to surround him, and at the same time, only the skeleton hands were pinched in front of him and began to cast spells.
Yang Shou knew that if he dodged at this time, he would only be defeated and retreated, and the only choice was to rush!
"Huh!"
A sweeping army slashed the vertebrae of two skeleton warriors, and at the same time smashed a small soldier with a shield that tried to sneak up on him, Yang Shou rushed forward a little further, seeing that he was only a few steps away from the skeleton mage.
However, the spell in the opponent's hand has been completed.
The skeleton mage's scarlet eyes suddenly brightened, and his hands were raised above his head before he slammed them towards the ground.
"Woo-la-la!"
A bright white arc of lightning appeared out of thin air, centered on the skeleton mage, spreading out at an alarming speed on the surface of the water!
Yang Shou's scalp exploded, and the first time he saw the arc, he soared into the air, and kicked on the shoulder of the skeleton soldier next to him. The "crackling" arc of electricity almost touched Yang Shou's boots, spread four or five meters away, and then disappeared without a trace.
Yang Shou didn't pause, and he didn't care about the skeleton soldiers around him, he used his strength under his feet, and his whole body rushed towards the skeleton mage almost flat.
"I'll give you electricity!"
Yang Shou gritted his teeth and cursed, the broadsword slashed firmly at the opponent's head, and the thin skeleton mage was directly split in half vertically, and the red light in his eyes flashed.
Only then did Yang Shou feel afraid, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Yin, what a yin!
This skeleton mage expected that Yang Shou would rush over to solve it first, so he directly put a close-range range spell: Arc Technique!
The undead creatures are immune to the electric spell, this "arc technique" is released, and the skeletons around it are all fine, only Yang Shouhui will be hit!
Spells don't deal much, but they have a high chance to paralyze the target. There are so many monsters around, Yang Shou can't move for just a second or two, and the consequences can be imagined.
This is the advantage of the combination of class changes, if it weren't for Yang Shou's knowledge of the habits of these monsters, most of them would have been hit. In The Witcher, a small mistake can kill you.
Turning his head to look at the other side, Yang Shou found that the enemy had been almost slaughtered, and Jane looked at ease. It seemed that the skeleton mage had no chance to play at all, so he was rushed in front of him by Jane and beheaded.
After a few battles, Yang Shou could also see that Jane's strength was significantly higher than his own. If he hadn't taken advantage of the weapon, he would definitely not be able to cut melons and vegetables to the extent he has now in the face of so many undead.
"I thought the skeleton mage was going to cause you some trouble,"
Cleaning up the monsters, Jane walked over and looked at Yang Shoudao: "You always impress me, have you encountered these undead creatures before?" ”
Yang Shou was happy when he heard this, and said: "That's it, I have killed tens of thousands of undead, from small skeleton soldiers to bone dragon lichs, all of them are powerful ghosts under my sword, and unjust souls under my sword!" But that's all from the previous life, don't mention it, don't mention it~"
Jane glared at Yang Shou angrily when she heard this, and her pink lips pursed disdainfully.
Yang Shou laughed, and said in his heart that the little girl still wants to trick me, but you don't believe me when I tell the truth~
However, after a few battles, Yang Shou felt a little uneasy.
Now that the combination of monsters has changed, what will happen after that, but don't let too outrageous monsters appear. If there is a danger to his life, if he can't save himself, he will have to flee for his life first, and then he will have the opportunity to fulfill the wish of the Itachi Elder in the future.
After killing three waves of monsters, the two of them have come to the core area of the temple, the main hall of the temple is in front of them, and the high foundation can already be seen, as well as the spacious front door of the main hall.
At the top of the temple is a statue of Gunde, the surface of which is gray and looks like a piece of broken wood.
Under normal circumstances, the temples favored by the gods carry divine powers, and this statue is supposed to radiate divine light, illuminating the entire valley, but now it has no luster at all.
The temple was also in a dilapidated state, with withered vines covering the walls, burrowing through gaps in the roof and into the temple. In the drizzling rain, a vague mist filled the main hall, and it was impossible to see what was going on inside.
A low hissing sound came from the rain curtain, looming, Yang Shou's face sank, touched the rain on his face, and spat to the side: The last wave is such a thing......
A dissuasion-type boss?
"Ghouls." Yang Shou said, his voice a little low.
"How do you know?" Jane shook off the rain on her sword and said curiously at Yang Shou.
"I've said it all, I've killed thousands of necromantic creatures, and they're all old acquaintances,"
Yang Shou never forgot to boast about himself, and then reminded: "This enemy is very strong, be careful not to be touched by it, it is poisonous, and you need to be more patient with it." ”
Jian pulled a sword flower, her expression was unwavering, and she looked at Yang Shou defiantly: "What, there are still things you are afraid of?" ”
Yang Shou raised his eyebrows, saw the fighting spirit and determination in Jane's eyes, and smiled knowingly: This little girl, is it inevitable to win this trip to the Twilight Valley?
The sharp hiss gradually turned into a low roar, and a tall figure appeared in the main hall gate, and walked out with strange steps.
Ghoul, Jane had already seen the Knight of the Secret Guard grave once, causing a lot of trouble for the sentinels at the time, and was later slashed to death by Caroline's sword.
Seeing that there were living people, the ghoul, who was still slow just now, immediately took action and rushed towards the position of the two.
Yang Shouwei returned to the side, and Jian Ze rushed straight ahead, holding the sword in both hands, the white light on the sword body was dazzling, and he rushed towards the ghoul's raised claws!
"Boom!"
There was a deafening loud bang, and the blades and claws shook head-on, causing countless splashes! Jane, who was dressed in black, was bounced out by the huge force, flipped a few times in the rain, and retreated more than ten meters away before stopping, her face was a little pale.
The ghoul didn't take much advantage of it, and the divine blessed oil on the sword gave it a heavy blow, and the blood on its claws was dripping with blood, and it roared in pain.
Yang Shou and Jane on the other side glanced at each other and nodded at the same time.
There's a play!
Without a pause, Jane rushed forward again, and the silver sword unleashed, drawing the ghoul's attention firmly. Yang Shou quickly detoured back behind the ghoul, and when he saw the opportunity, he was a sword!
"Poof!"
"7 + (13 Flames) + 17 (Hallow)!" The huge damage number jumped out, and Yang Shou was happy in his heart, but Yang Shou was not greedy, and immediately retreated after slashing a sword, just avoiding the sharp claws swept by the ghoul.
The ghoul was annoyed by the sword's slash and turned around to chase after Yang Shou, but Jane quickly bullied herself and entangled the ghoul. Yang Shou retreated far away to the periphery, waiting for an opportunity to move, looking for the next chance to sneak attack.
The ghoul of the ordinary template, the health value fluctuates between 290~310, counting the damage caused by Jane, Yang Shou only needs to hit ten swords strongly, and the ghoul will definitely die.
Yang Shou's tactics proved to be very effective, and after a few rounds, the ghouls were already covered in bruises, the wounds caused by the divine damage could not be healed, and the ghouls' frantic roar spread throughout the valley.
But Yang Shou also has a problem here.
Fighting all the way in, the physical strength of both of them is a little low, especially in the face of ghouls, Jane has to resist the other party in every move, and her physical strength is extremely fast.
"Dang!" With a loud bang, Jane was slapped away again by the ghoul's raised claws, and this time the female swordsman was unsteady on her feet, staggering and half-on her knees.
Yang Shou frowned, hesitated slightly, and directly activated the durability aura.
Jane stood up with the support of her long sword, her breathing becoming more and more rapid, but she did not give up, and the battle intent in her eyes was stronger.
At this moment, Jane suddenly felt a cool feeling suddenly welling up in her body, her sore muscles quickly regained her vitality, and the previous feeling of exhaustion magically disappeared.
This...... Isn't that what a durable aura feels like?
Jane has lived in the army for so long, and of course knows this skill, because it is extremely beneficial to group combat, and many high-ranking knights and warriors will learn it first.
Didn't you also find a treasure book of endurance aura in the tomb of the knight who guarded the secret before?
Thinking of this, Jane looked up at Yang Shou in surprise, and sure enough, a pale golden aura appeared on the soles of Yang Shou's feet at some point, slowly emitting a golden shimmer in all directions.
At this time, there was no time to say more, the two looked at each other, nodded to each other tacitly, and rushed forward again.
The two sides went back and forth, the ghoul's blood was quickly grinded down, victory was in sight, and the expressions of the two of them were a little more relaxed.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, the ghoul, who was already dying, roared angrily, his eyes turned blood-red, and his movements suddenly accelerated several times! Jane, who was fighting the ghoul in close quarters, was taken aback, and subconsciously wanted to retreat and distance herself, but it was too late.
Damn, this little monster is still going berserk?
Yang Shou was so shocked that he didn't have time to rush over, he directly rounded the broadsword in his hand and threw it at the ghoul!
"Hide!"
"Sting!"
After a scalp-tingling grinding sound, Jane was scraped on the shoulder by the ghoul's claws and fell into the water in embarrassment. Almost at the same time, Yang Shou's broadsword accurately stabbed the ghoul's back, bursting out a blood-red damage number, and the raging ghoul's health was finally depleted, and "Boom" fell into the water.
