Reading battles is one of the places where the difference in strength between gold-level adventurers and silver-level adventurers can be best demonstrated.

Randolph, the bald leader of the Sideburns Adventure Band, thought for a moment after receiving the words that Feento's adventurer had brought him, and then beckoned the other members of the group to fight and retreat, moving towards the place where the young man was.

Because after careful observation during the battle, he soon discovered that one of the characteristics of this group of red-eyed wolves was that they attacked fiercely, but they retreated as soon as they were pressed.

The battle in the camp began to develop in the direction of the tactics that Finn had come up with on the fly, and the young paladin believed that the sideburns and his men would unite to launch a few more counterattacks against the wolves, and that the unexpected night attack would soon be successfully defused.

Although, he still didn't know exactly when there was such a group of demonic crystal beasts in the dagger forest.

Arya raised her left hand crossbow and fired a magic arrow with ice attributes, striking a gray sideburn wolf that lunged at her, and then slashed a fatal wound into the latter's skull, killing another enemy in a short period of time.

The elven girl's emerald green eyes opened and closed as she blinked, and she swung the scimitar in her right hand to the side, causing the wolf blood stuck to the surface of the knife to splash down on the grass in that place.

In the blink of an eye, the elven girl's slender pointed ears twitched slightly, and she suddenly felt an aura that was extremely sensitive and familiar to her appear around the camp in the forest.

The feeling she couldn't ignore made her immediately drop everything she was thinking about in her mind and quickly scan her gaze to search her surroundings.

After about two seconds, her eyes suddenly locked on a dark shadow in the woods that was hard to notice, the black shadow hidden in the bushes took on the outline of a human being, I don't know when it appeared, but it seemed as if she had been there for a long time, as if she was watching this night battle initiated by the wolves.

Arya's brain was in a trance, and an image from a memory overlapped with the dark shadow at this moment. She was usually very cautious and careful, and at this moment she felt very rarely that reason was moving away from her, and an emotion called hatred quickly gushed out from the bottom of her heart and dominated her will.

So, her feet rushed out of that direction uncontrollably.

"Arya?" Finn glanced over and saw the golden ponytail on the back of the elven girl's head flicking his back towards him, and was taken aback, "Hey, Arya, come back!" Where are you going? ”

But the elven girl didn't seem to hear him at all.

She just raised the crossbow in her left hand and aimed it in front of her, and then ran wildly towards the place where the dark shadow was in the woods.

The dark shadow hidden in the woods quickly noticed the blonde elf girl approaching it, and immediately turned and began to flee deeper into the forest.

Face Arya's single-handedly pursuit. The wolves infected with crystallization did not hinder the elven girl too much, as if they had received some kind of mental instruction, but instead made way for Arya, who had lost her mind, to rush all the way out of the camp area, chasing the fleeing black shadow and rushing into the dark woods.

It all happened very suddenly, and Finn didn't know what Arya had discovered, but he knew that the elf girl's behavior just now was simply messy, so he immediately clenched the iron sword in his hand and prepared to catch up with Arya and call her back in time.

However, the gray-sidedness wolves, who had been strengthened into demonic crystal beasts by crystallization, failed to let the young paladin get their wish, and the beasts, who had theoretically lost their basic judgment ability, quickly gathered together after letting Arya go.

The gray wolves were once again blocked in front of the young paladin, and Finn's eyes widened when he saw the series of actions that the wolves had just made in front of his eyes. I wonder when did this kind of thing become so organized and disciplined?

According to common sense, a beast whose will is increasingly corroded by crystallization should have only the most basic biological instincts left.

In other words, if the actions of the Demon Crystal Beasts are clearly suspiciously disciplined, then there is probably only one possibility behind this.

That is. Someone is directing this group of magical creatures transformed by alchemy.

……

Arya's sturdy figure weaved swiftly through the densely vegetated woods.

The Grey-Sideburned Wolf hadn't haunted her since she left the camp, allowing her to devote all of her current attention to chasing after the dark shadow she had spotted.

In fact, the dark shadow that Arya found was not running too fast. The distance between the shadow of the humanoid silhouette and Arya was narrowing little by little, and the other party seemed to be deliberately leading the elven girl with a sword and crossbow to a specific place.

This chase in the dense forest was not involved by a third party for a while.

Finally, when a while more passed. Arya jumped lightly over a stone under her feet, and felt that the back of the black shadow falling on her field of vision had entered the range of the crossbow, and then decisively raised the crossbow in her left hand forward, and used her personal specialty called the Magic Bullet Shooter to create a magic arrow infused with air attributes and shoot out with a "whoosh".

The magic arrows created by the Magic Bullet Shooter vary depending on the magic attribute chosen, for example, the Flame Arrow will cause the target hit by the arrow to continue to receive after-damage from the burn, the Ice Arrow will freeze the target's wound to a certain extent, the Holy Arrow can deal a lot of extra damage to evil creatures, and the Dark Arrow can also make the good target hit by the arrow more uncomfortable.

Arya's chosen attribute for the magic arrow at this time is "air".

Magical arrows with the attribute of "air" can fly faster in mid-air, and the spiral air flow that surrounds the arrows also has a certain degree of armor-piercing effect.

The magic arrow that the elf girl improvised with her personal expertise was pushed out by the crossbow, and the wind-attached arrow passed through the treetops and branches in the dense forest in a straight trajectory, and the next second it made a crisp "pop" sound and hit the black shadow's back.

The shadow that fled with its back to Arya suddenly bent over as if it were stiff, and after letting out a muffled snort that was not loud, it glanced back at Arya, and hurried to the depths of the woods to continue to escape.

Arya's elven ears listened intently to the muffled snort of the dark shadow from the arrow in the back.

It was a woman's voice, and the age of the voice sounded relatively young, about twenty years old with human life expectancy as the standard, which was completely consistent with the impression that could never be forgotten in the memory of the elf girl.

After an arrow hit her chasing target, Arya was even more confident that she could catch up with the other party, and then gritted her teeth and continued to speed up her steps, the silhouette of the black shadow growing larger and larger in her field of vision, indicating that she was getting closer and closer to the other party.

Suddenly, the dark shadow in the dense forest disappeared into a half-man-tall bush.

The elven girl's emerald green eyes stared at the grass that covered the black shadow, and without much thought, the scimitar in Yihui's right hand broke in, and then she heard the sound of a blade cutting through blades of grass and bush branches, and she broke through the grass to a clearing in the forest.

A ray of moonlight fell from the night sky, and the fellow she had been chasing for most of the day finally stood in the middle of the glade in the form of a lady in a long black dress, completely exposed to her sight with his back to her. (To be continued.) )
