027 Ambush outside the tunnel
The invisibility of a smoking pipe can last for half an hour.
That's long enough time for him and Erin to walk through the gravel floor.
Invisibility can obscure their bodies, but it can't erase their presence. Therefore, when two people walk, they must also be careful so as not to make any movement and expose the target.
Fortunately, neither of them was a rookie, and they walked through the most dangerous part of the journey calmly.
After entering the dense forest, he cautiously advanced for more than ten minutes, and the effect of the invisibility technique finally disappeared.
"Everything is going well, it seems that even if the people of the Moon Scepter family set up a secret ambush, we have already passed." Lothar breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Lothar tasted the taste of being slapped in the face by the facts.
Sou!
A bow and arrow shot down from a tall pine tree and pointed straight at the throat.
At the last moment, Lothar summoned a protective orb and blocked it in front of him.
The arrow grazed the field energy ball and bounced off, missing the target.
"Fuck!"
With an angry curse, the pine trunk twisted, and then a man with a war bow came out.
His clothing is made of special plants, called the Forest Suit, which allows the wearer to fully integrate into the forest environment after standing still for ten minutes. It is the perfect equipment for Ranger Assassins to ambush enemies in the forest.
However, the blow missed, and the man also revealed his position.
With a hideous face, he took out three arrows from the quiver in one breath, each of which exuded magical fluctuations.
"My archery stunt three arrows salvo, combined with the enchanted arrows given by the master, I don't believe I can't solve a mere trainee mage!"
The man bent his bow and squeaked his bowstrings, accumulating strength.
But Lothar's counter-attack was quicker than his marksmanship.
He had already mastered the tri-colored rays, and after he had built the Ring of Laws, he was able to cast spells even faster. Almost as soon as he raised his hand, the spell blurted out and the spell was completed.
The Forest Suit has excellent concealment in the forest, but it is not very defensive.
The archer was easily pierced through the chest by Lothar's spell and died of exhaustion.
Before he could catch his breath, there was a sudden sound of leaves behind Lothar.
A masked woman in a straitjacket emerges from the ground covered with thick leaves. In her hands were two sharp black blades.
The back of Lothar's neck socket can feel the sharp and piercing killing intent!
"It's just multiple ambushes, and I've seen a lot of this kind of tactic."
Lothar didn't panic, her lips twitched, her syllables jumped, and a pitch-black sword appeared out of thin air.
Although the mage is powerful, he is attacked by assassins in close proximity, and most of them are more than lucky. But this time, the mage's sword was faster than the assassin's!
As the Assassin rose into the air and was about to stab the blade into the back of Lothar's neck with the force of his fall, the activated sword turned into a black lightning bolt and grazed her neck.
"Hmmm......"
The Assassin snorted and fell to the ground. Massive blood loss from the carotid arteries would have left her dead in a matter of minutes.
However, when the female assassin died, a shrill whistle came from the necklace she wore around her neck.
Suddenly, whistles rang out throughout the forest.
"Uh...... I felt like I had poked a hornet's nest. The more intense the battle, the more fun it is, but it's not so good if you die because of it. Lothar smiled awkwardly.
"Do you still have time to joke?" Erin didn't have a good breath, "There are three sources of mana that are rapidly approaching. Think about what to do with the three full-fledged mages. ”
Lothar also sensed the approach of a mage.
One in the air, two on the ground, and both move far faster than themselves. In addition to this, there are also many mage followers who are also quickly surrounding.
Soon, Lothar saw the enemy flying through the air.
He had a one-sided relationship with the other party.
Young, handsome, with the perfect face of the gods. Elegant and high, as if born to have the whole world.
"Rexie Moon Staff." Lothar looked at the man who approached him with his flying skills.
And Lexie, who was flying in the air, also saw him: "Lothar Frieddon...... Hmph, such a little person also deserves to have a legendary orb? Today, you can't escape! ”
"Surround him and prevent him from escaping. I'm going to get the Orb of Legends from him myself. Rexi commanded his men with the teleportation badge.
The genius mage, who had already reached the level of the three rings at a young age and began to condense his true name, shook his mage robe lightly, and sent a black cloud in the direction of Lothar.
"Poisonous insect cloud? It's really interesting to be so handsome, but like to use such disgusting spells. ”
Lothar laughed, not timid by the presence of a strong enemy. He clutched the scroll of all things in his hand and activated the magic array drawn on it.
Flameburst!
As soon as the black cloud of poisonous insects that can bite flesh and release toxins can bite and flesh, they are attacked by both fire and shockwaves.
These insects are most afraid of flames, and they are burned to the ground in an instant.
The charred corpses rained down and then disintegrated into energy particles that dissipated into the forest.
"That's what you killed my followers?" At a glance, Rexi saw the scroll of everything in Lothar's hand, "It's mine too!" ”
"How about giving you a big sword first?" Lothar raised her hand and pointed at Rexi in the air.
The Activated Longsword immediately whistled towards its target.
"Bad tricks." Rexi smiled contemptuously, flicking her fingers and sending out a magic missile.
He thought that his magic missile would be able to shatter Lothar's long sword, but who knew that after the silver drop-shaped energy projectile hit the sword, it disappeared without a sound.
"It's ...... The power of existence?! ”
Rexi could no longer maintain her calm image.
"Even a mere trainee mage can wield the power of existence! It must have something to do with the legendary orb. I'm about to become my true name, and I can't grasp the mystery of the power of existence, how can he be! ”
Lexie's heart was on fire, and she was even more determined to snatch the Legendary Orb. With that legendary orb, he was 100% sure that he would become a true name within a year and be promoted to a four-ring mage.
"Stop this sword!"
Rexi ordered.
The two Moon Staff Family mages in the forest immediately used all their strengths, and all kinds of spells were used in unison, and it was not easy to shoot down Lothar's activated long sword.
And Lexie didn't give Lothar a respite, and the staff waved, and the red light flashed.
A fiery sphere, quickly taking shape.
"Fireball?"
Lothar felt a fluctuation of flame energy. He was all too familiar with the classic three-ring spell of this energy school. However, familiar is familiar, and it is extremely difficult to resist this spell with his current strength.
Lothar took out a Spirit Fruit and stuffed it into her mouth.
Chew hastily twice to let the juice full of divine power sink into your stomach. Lothar opened her mouth and shouted, "Earth wall! ”
The ground shook and rumbled.
A wall of brown earth rose from the ground in an instant, blocking the Fireball Technique's flight path.
Rumble!
The thick earthen walls absorb all the power of the fireball technique. The earth wall made of the divine power in the Spirit Fruit is also a three-ring spell, and its energy level is equivalent to that of the fireball technique.
This time the spell confrontation ended in a draw.
Rexie's attacks came in waves, not giving Lothar much respite. There is no problem with the villain's words.
Except for the last Spirit Fruit in Lothar's hand, there is no means to be able to fight against Lexie.
Although he has advanced rapidly in magic, in a short period of time, he has become a high-level apprentice mage who has successfully constructed the ring of the Ten Elements Law. But compared to Rexi, the gap is still too big.
Sometimes, time is the chasm that can't be bridged no matter what.
Lothar felt the pressure like never before.
But now in order to survive, in order to keep the legendary orb, he has to buy more time no matter what.
So taking advantage of the gap between the earthen wall and the technique, Lothar hurriedly shouted: "If you want to get the legendary orb, it's best not to be in such a hurry to put me to death." ”
"Oh?" Rexi smiled, "You want to negotiate terms with me, junior apprentice?" ”
Rexi temporarily relented and did not continue to attack. One is because he cares about the legendary orb and doesn't want anything wrong. The second reason is that Lothar once again surprised him, and he actually had a way to block his fireball technique.
A trainee mage who can only cast a 0.5-level zero-ring spell can actually use a 4-level three-ring spell. Even with the help of objects, it's surprising enough.
Rexi didn't know what other hole cards this young apprentice had. He was even more worried that Lothar would overuse the power of the Legendary Orb in order to fight him, thus damaging the treasure.
So, with all the upper hand, Rexi stopped and decided to talk to Lothar.
Lothar was relieved to see Lexie put down her staff.
"I know what you want." Lothar looked up and said, "Since a long time ago, the Moonstaff family has been planning in vain to get the Friedon family heirloom, right? My valet Lucy has been serving me since ten years ago. The long-term vision and deep scheming of the Moon Scepter family are really admirable. ”
Rexie was just silent, not denying it.
His law fire is "plunder", which is very consistent with the "war" bias of the Freiro continent.
After all, in war, burning, killing and looting are common things.
After fighting and conspiracing, Lexie plundered countless riches and treasures from his enemies, and his law spark grew rapidly, allowing his magic to enter the realm day by day, and he became a three-ring mage at a young age.
So he was not ashamed of Lothar's accusations.
In this continent, the strong are kings, and it is natural that they should have everything.
Lothar pointed to the dimensional pouch around his waist and continued, "What you want, it's here. There's a ban on my dimensional bag, though. If I die, the subspace in the dimensional bag will explode immediately, spraying all items into the void. ”
