Chapter 43: The Witch of Water
"Finally waiting for you to take the bait!" With a sneer on his face, Roger backhanded the long black knife behind him with a jasper bamboo.
The ninja who appeared in Roger's shadow was startled.
"Whoosh!"
The four Phantom Marksmen, who had been waiting for a long time, shot their arrows in unison!
The ninja seemed to have no time to react at all, and was hit by four feathered arrows in unison!
"Bang!"
A cloud of smoke suddenly erupted from the ninja's body, and when the smoke was dispersed by Roger's drive by the wind elemental, only a wooden stake was left in place.
Looking at the two arrows on the stake, Roger didn't care.
Even if he was only hit by two arrows, this ninja who was as high as level 19 would definitely have lost his ability to fight, and the arrows of the phantom archers were not so easy to handle.
In fact, Roger had already discovered this ninja, and from the eyes of true knowledge, he could clearly see the ninja hiding in the shadows with the so-called "escape technique". Even if he didn't use the Eye of Knowledge, with the ability of the druid, Roger could easily spot the ninjas who were approaching with various shadows, and all the plants were the druid's eyeliner. Compared to the high-level demons who can launch long-range raids by teleportation, the assassination of the top-tier ninja is really not worth mentioning to the druid.
"Alright, the whole army presses on!" Despite the heavy damage to the ninja hiding in the shadows, Roger still carefully led his troops forward. After all, it is not surprising that ninjas who were originally trained by the standards of dead soldiers have one or two secret techniques that have the potential to burn life explosions, and if the other party decides to fight hard, Roger will still have some trouble.
After all, it's a top-tier ninja, and you can't take it lightly in the face of a profession like an assassin.
Transformed into a panda warrior monk again, Roger slowly walked at the front of the group with the only three remaining earth elements, while the phantom shooters mixed in the elven shooters vigilantly observed Roger's surroundings.
In front of the elven archers, Mum glared at Roger's back angrily, the strong resentment was almost substantial, like two sharp arrows against Roger's back, which made Roger's back chill for a while, and Annie was whispering to Momm.
Strangely, Aisha, who had been standing with Anne and Mom, was nowhere to be found.
Hawke, who was standing with the elven shooters, glanced at Roger sympathetically, but he didn't dare to speak for his eldest brother after all, and the friends knew that the rampaging Mom was actually far more terrible than Garon.
The old dwarf sat on the white horse with a melancholy face, sighing from time to time, the kick he had just been kicked by the big devil really hurt the old dwarf's heart.
In fact, everyone knew that Roger didn't let Mom make a move because he was worried that Mom would lose to the big devil and the top-level ninja in secret, and Roger had already quietly told everyone about these arrangements through the "Thousand Miles of Voice" in advance.
But Mom was still annoyed, and it wasn't Roger who was annoyed, but herself. After all, Luna had hoped that she would be able to watch Roger from the beginning, but now she couldn't help because of her lack of strength, and Mom really felt that she didn't have the face to go back to Luna.
In the manor, the earth elementals have eliminated the remnants of the alchemy demons and the troublesome ninjas, but there are only eight left, but it is enough to deal with the injured big devil and the devil who has been carefully protecting the female onmyoji.
The strength of the big devil known as the "former ghost" is really strong, I am afraid that he is already close to the level of the ninth order, even if his right arm is injured and cannot be used, he can easily force back the earth element with his left hand.
But that's it.,The devil who is estimated to be called the "back ghost" is actually close to the edge of promotion, but it's still close to becoming an advanced class. The back ghost waved the chains bound on his body, constantly forcing back the earth element that stepped forward, but he couldn't step forward to help the "front ghost".
Whenever it tried to step forward to cover the "former ghost", a feathered arrow would shoot at the gap left by its movement and hit the female onmyoji in the distance.
It seems that the female onmyoji seems to be a character similar to a summoner, and in the face of the sniping of the phantom shooter, she can only rely on the enchantment to barely support her, and she is also injured by the "rear ghost" who returned to save her.
The injured "back ghost" seems to have learned to be obedient, but he strictly protects the female onmyoji behind him, not trying to help the "front ghost".
Seeing that the injuries of the "former ghosts" were getting worse and worse, the female onmyoji was really anxious, but there was nothing she could do, so she could only retreat to the door with the two devils, relying on the desperate defense of the door.
Roger Shi Ran led the troops to the entrance of the manor, and the earth elements demolished all the walls and gates of the manor very cleanly, and looked at the hard-fought "front ghost" and the "back ghost" and the female onmyoji with fierce eyes.
Looking at the approaching earth element in front of him, and the elven archers with bows and arrows behind them, the female onmyoji had a cold sweat on her face, and the two devils kept roaring, but they quietly moved their feet, protecting the female onmyoji behind her.
"Listen to the people outside! Stop it all! Otherwise, I'll kill the target you're trying to save!" ”
At that moment, a roar came from the depths of the building.
The female onmyoji subconsciously felt a tightness in her heart, and immediately turned to look at the corridor behind her.
In the depths of the corridor, the black-clothed ninja who spoke to the female onmyoji at the beginning used a long knife to put a girl's neck, and slowly appeared in everyone's eyes with the girl.
The girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and she looked a little younger than Roger, but she was very well developed, and even the thick kimono could not hide her graceful figure. The girl had waist-length black hair and a beautiful face, even if she was slowly advancing under the threat of the ninja behind her, her face was still so calm and calm. And the girl is wearing a gorgeous kimono from Yingzhou, with pink cherry blossoms on the bright red fabric, and at a glance you know that it is not something that ordinary Yingzhou people can afford.
The black-clothed ninja pushed the girl with his left hand and held a long knife around the girl's neck with his right hand, trying to hide his whole body behind the girl as he walked.
However, the black-clothed ninja is 1.8 meters tall, but he bends down and tries to hide behind the girl who is only 1.5 meters, which is ridiculous no matter how you look at it.
It is worth noting that the girl has been carefully holding a luxurious mirror in her hands. From time to time, the black-clothed ninja sneaked a glance at the mirror, his eyes full of lingering unease.
"Her Highness Sakurahime! Bastard! Don't you dare! The female onmyoji screamed angrily in the Yingzhou dialect, her eyes full of undisguised anger, which made Roger, who understood Yingzhou dialect, frown.
"Xiao Ming, calm down, I'm fine." Sakurahime glanced at the female onmyoji lightly, but there was a high majesty in her crisp lingua franca, as if she was not subject to others at this moment, but sat on a luxurious throne.
Xiao Ming, the female onmyoji servant, took a deep breath and tried her best to calm herself, before she lowered her head and replied in the lingua franca: "Yes!" Your Highness, I'm out of shape! I beg your pardon. ”
"Bastard, get out of the way, or I'll stab her to death!" The black-clothed ninja shouted loudly, his trembling voice clearly reflecting his fear.
After all, Roger and the others were too calm, completely different from what he imagined.
"The female ...... in your hand," Roger said nonchalantly, but before he could say that, he was interrupted by the ninja in black.
"Don't play dumb! Aren't you here to save this water witch of Yingzhou Country, Her Royal Highness Princess Sakurahime! Get out of the way! Or I'll stab her to death!" The man in black, who had a faint sense of foreboding, shouted eagerly.
"The Witch of Water?" Glancing at the system prompts that have been making a lot of noise since Sakurahime appeared, Roger was helpless to discover a new mission [Rescue].
Quietly looking at Sakurahime, Roger decisively ignored the system prompt, and pointed his right hand straight at Her Royal Highness the princess of Yingzhou Kingdom.
A phantom shooter who received the instruction did not hesitate to pull out the strong bow in his hand and pointed an arrow at Princess Sakurahime.
The black-clothed ninja who was blank in his mind stupidly watched a cold star approach instantly, but was intercepted by a black shadow volley in the middle of the way.
The one who shot that arrow was the same ninja who attacked Roger earlier! As soon as the ninja landed, he directly spurted out a large mouthful of blood.
"Sayuri!"
"Hattori's!"
Sakurahime and Tomaki's voices rang out at the same time, and Roger noticed that it was a female ninja.
The female ninja Sayuri was hit by two arrows from the phantom archer, in addition to the blood that spewed out, the blood mark on the foot also clearly told Sakura and Xiao Ming that the female ninja had been seriously injured, and the black ninja suit on her body had been completely wet with blood.
Without thinking too much about it, the female onmyoji servant Xiao Ming hurriedly stepped forward to support the crumbling female ninja, and the tentacles were full of blood, and the servant Xiao Ming, who was quite sensitive to the smell of blood, was immediately stunned.
The black-clothed ninja, who had already realized that he had completely mistaken the situation, saw that even his final ace top ninja Sayuri Hattori had fallen at this moment, and when he finally came to his senses, he noticed that his crotch had become wet.
His brain was still a little dazed, and he subconsciously pulled the belt of his trousers.
At this moment when his attention relaxed, a black shadow suddenly appeared behind him, and slapped him so that his whole body was tilted to the right.
"Whoosh!"
Subconsciously looked at the feather arrow on his chest, and the black-clothed ninja glared at Roger: You lied to me! And said that you are not here to save people!
He was met with Roger's mocking look.
At this moment, the ninja in black suddenly understood what Roger meant: he really didn't come to save people! The reason why he shot was because he had to be saved.
Water Witch! Did I die on my own?
The black-clothed ninja swallowed his last breath with self-deprecation.
The shadow leopard cub behind Sakurahime slowly turned into a human form, and it was Aisha!
Seeing Aisha waving to him, Roger looked helpless.
Roger actually wanted to kill the Yingzhou witch and the black-clothed ninja together, but Elsa's action made Roger have to kill the black-clothed ninja: not to save Sakurahime, but to save the daring Elsa.
After all, Elsa's strength is still at level five.
In the heavenly realm, the kingdom of the goddess of nature, the goddess of nature is apologizing to the goddess of water.
"I'm really sorry, Your Majesty the Water God, I didn't know that this kid hated the people of Yingzhou so much, and almost hurt Your Excellency's patrons, I'm really sorry."
The goddess of water is the highest among the main gods in terms of seniority and strength, but the goddess of water is indifferent by nature and has not interfered in the affairs of the main plane for a long time, but now the overseas islands, including Yingzhou Kingdom, believe in this old goddess.
What's more, this time it also involves the only patron of the goddess of water in the past three hundred years, and the goddess of nature, as a younger generation, can't help but be a little afraid.
The moon god on the side was very calm, snickering while drinking tea.
The goddess of water with the vicissitudes of life on her face waved her hand to show that she didn't have to mind: "It's okay, your patron obviously just hates the people of Yingzhou." I don't know why, but he's not really hostile to my patron. Leave this matter to my patrons, with the relationship between you and me, such a trivial matter, don't worry too much. ”
The goddess of nature and the god of the moon couldn't help but look at each other, what does the goddess of water mean?
The goddess of water didn't explain, just looked at Sakurahime quietly, and a faint look of love flashed in her eyes.
