Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
After joining the Three Holy Baptist Order, Hao Lin received a spell-like ability called "Abyss Summoning" from demons. Every day, he was able to summon three abyssal creatures with the same effect as the three-ring summoning spell through the three abyssal magic patterns engraved on his body.
The Purgatory Gorilla, who is so powerful that he can break an oak shield with a single punch, is equivalent to a level 6 warrior. With the help of these three summoned creatures, Hao Lin was full of confidence, and he felt that the gods of heaven had poured out the wine of revenge, and as long as he gently stuck out his tongue, he could taste the luscious taste.
In the face of three purgatory gorillas who could smash their heads with a single punch, Gordon did not flinch, did not panic, and remained calm. In "Elder Age", he is the only person on the team who did not apply for psychological counseling from the federal government after experiencing a copy of "Flesh Mill", which is said to be a hundred times more terrifying than the most terrifying B-class plasma movie in history.
If the situation is not shocked, if it is as steady as Mount Tai - or in other words, "Nervous Coarseness", Gordon is confident that he will not lose to anyone.
"Are you sure you want to compare the numbers with me?" He smiled at Hao Lin, who was arrogant, and slashed forward with his right hand, as if there were thousands of troops standing behind him, "Attack, Fumi Ant Legion!" ”
Hao Lin was about to recite the incantation when he suddenly heard the sound of a sinister sore from the unfathomable darkness behind Gordon, like some kind of hard creature carapace cutting across the ground.
Countless half-human-high black shadows crawled out from the ground, from the walls, and even from the zenith, densely packed, and the gurgling of carapaces echoed everywhere. Hao Lin felt so dazzled that he couldn't even count how many Fumi workers there were in front of him. He was once again caught off guard by Gordon, and fell into confusion and confusion.
Gordon had known that Hao Lin was following him. As a half-elf, although her bloodline is not pure, Shellaya still inherited the sight and hearing of a forest elf from a human, and it was with this racial advantage that she became a fourth-level ranger at a young age. Coupled with Gordon's letting her drink a bottle of Angel Eye Elixir and a bottle of Hearing Potion, her detection ability is even better.
So, Gordon found a place, made a good suit, and waited for Hao Lin to drill.
Because of the lack of knowledge, the energy stacking technique that the necromancer Mendoza failed to master was reproduced in Gordon's hands. He used the second-level summoning technique to send two Fumi worker ants to the main material realm. It cost him four mana. Then he used the energy stacking technique to summon two more Vermi Worker Ants. This time, he spent eight mana.
Although Gordon needs to exponentially increase his mana to perform repeated summons, he still has plenty of mana due to his intention to conserve mana in previous battles, mainly using potions, scrolls, and magic wands to fight. When all his mana was depleted, he used four second-level summoning spells, summoning fifteen Vermi Worker Ants.
After hiding this army of ants in the dark, he waited for Hao Lin to come to the door.
Although the "Fumi Worker Ant Army" is just an exaggeration, this number is enough to crush Hao Lin's three abyssal gorillas. Moreover, the Fumi ant clan relies on two tentacles to transmit pheromones for communication, and is a creature with a collective consciousness and a high degree of unity of thought. In team combat, it has an advantage that no other creature can match, and when combined, it is almost invulnerable.
The three abyssal gorillas killed only two Fumi worker ants, and they were surrounded by a group, and under the attack of the claws and teeth of the worker ants, they turned into sulfur flames and disappeared into the main material plane.
"Impossible! How can it be! I have the power of goddesses and demons, and I can't fail! Hao Lin looked like he was crazy, screaming and chanting incantations, in a vain attempt to make a last stand. A blood-red ball of light appeared in his hand, and the chaotic power of the abyss was swelling rapidly.
A flying arrow was like a lightning flint, slashing through a cold light in the darkness, pointing directly at Hao Lin's throat. A dim yellow energy shield suddenly appeared, blocking the arrows. Although the torture shield bestowed on Hao Lin by the Goddess of Pain blocked the direct damage, the sonic damage on the arrow, which was blessed by Gordon, was still released, and the vibration and noise made him almost fall. Shellaya interrupted the spell casting process with an arrow, and Hao Lin didn't have time to cast the spell again before he was overwhelmed by the surging Fumi worker ants......
"You killed the elite mage Hollin Heidebergh and gained 6oo experience."
"It's actually a template for an extraordinary elite, no wonder there are so many experience points." Gordon glanced at Hao Lin's horrific corpse and wondered. He himself is just an "obscure" template.
Now habitually browsed the system after the battle, and the experience value in Gordon's current experience pool reached 32o7 points, and finally reached the upgrade demand. He immediately allocates 3ooo XP from the experience pool to the character's experience.
A warm current continues to swim in the body and gradually spreads. Gordon, finally reached the fourth level. You only need to go up one level to start learning the Triple Ring Spell. When the time comes, his strength will improve like a fly.
After reaching level four, Gordon gains an additional stat point. He didn't hesitate to add it to the intellect. As the main attribute of a mage, the importance of intelligence is self-evident. High intelligence increases the power of spells and increases the efficiency of arcane learning.
In the end, Gordon invested his seven newly earned skill points in casting focus, then turned off the system interface.
Hao Lin has been squeezed by Gordon once, and there is nothing of value left on him. In line with the principle that the "Scavengers" players do not let go of a little loot, Gordon searched the spell casting materials on Hao Lin's body and dozens of gold coins before leaving the battle scene with Shellaiya.
After walking for a while, they met people again.
But this time there is no need to fight.
"Pastor Jack." Gordon greeted an old acquaintance at the Temple of Dawn.
Although the white and clean priest's robe did not match the dark and filthy sewers, Pastor Jack's mood was still high, and he was not affected by the harsh environment in the slightest.
"As I said, a sinner who dares to offend the Temple of the Dawn and insult the priest will pay the price. Today is the day of the fall of the Ritter family. Pastor Jack said. Apparently, he also remembered being insulted by adventurers in front of the shop. Although the direct mastermind Hao Lin has been defeated by Gordon, the real culprit, Dunville Ritter, will definitely not be reconciled if he does not get the punishment he deserves.
The team attacking the sewers this time was divided into twenty teams, each of which was composed of the elite warriors of the city lord and the priests of each temple. Count Julian, who commanded the battle, adopted a carpet search, clearing one by one, and did not let go of every fork in the road. The Ritter family's private soldiers couldn't resist at all, and they were defeated one after another.
By the time Gordon took Shella, Priest, and Pastor Jack to the Ritter family's private dock, the battle was nearing its end.
Protected by ten heavily armoured warriors who were the last elite warriors of the Ritter family, a terrified Dunwell kept retreating towards the riverbank. The warriors who protect this eldest young master of the Ritter family, although they are all senior mercenaries or battlefield veterans, have rich experience, excellent combat skills, and an average strength of at least level seven, and have the excellent weapons that the Ritter family has equipped them with at all costs, and some even have awakened their powers. But it still couldn't resist the city lord's troops.
With the blessing of the priests' various magic techniques, the attacking side was far stronger than the other party in terms of actual combat strength and morale, and under the fierce offensive, the guards around Dunwell fell one after another, becoming fewer and fewer. Gordon stood not far away and witnessed the whole process of Dunwell's dying struggle. In the end, the man who had been high-spirited and wanted to follow his father and bring the family to glory was pierced through the heart by a sword and died on the beach screaming. The warrior of the city lord, who was eager to ask for credit, cut off Dunwell's head with a sword, leaving him in a different place.
It's a pity that Gordon has already exhausted his mana in the battle with Hao Lin, so he didn't join the battle.
The Ritter family, which had been stored in the sewers to finance the orc's ordnance, were all dragged out and piled up into several hills. Various cargo records and ledgers were also confiscated and presented to Count Julian. Now, the evidence is conclusive, and the Ritter family is completely finished.
"Is there any news from the cavalry sent to hunt down Longer Ritter?" Count Julian, with his beautiful mustache, asked. This blue water city lord is in the prime of life, energetic, diligent in political affairs, and takes care of his fief only in an orderly manner, which can be regarded as a wise nobleman.
His adjutant replied respectfully, "When I came back from the last summons, I was almost at the Ritter family mansion. ”
"I hope that greedy chunky boar doesn't escape." Count Julian played with his beard with one hand, and his expression was hateful, "Longer Ritter is so bold that he dares to collude with the orcs and betray the Empire!" Even if he dies ten times, he will not be able to pay for his sins! ”
Longer Ritter, who was about to be killed by Count Julian, was standing in his luxurious living room at this time, and was almost crushed by bad news several times and fainted to the ground.
He didn't know why, but the meticulous mission that the Three Holy Baptists had been planning for a long time and was carried out by his own family could go awry. But there's no point in dwelling on this kind of problem now. Just now, a bloodied family soldier came back to report that the secret stronghold of the entire sewer had been destroyed and all the goods had been confiscated. And the cavalry who captured him was hurrying towards here.
These are nothing, and the most painful thing for Longer is the death of his eldest son, Dunwell. Although he has experienced countless setbacks, today is undoubtedly his saddest day.
It's just that his grief didn't infect the other two people in the same room.
"It's a shame." Coyane, who was still in a chivalrous manner, took the last bit of red wine from his goblet and drank the last bit of red wine in his goblet, and then stood up, "Because of the defeat of the Ritter family, the Gribrace family has lost five first-class cargo ships as a result. In order not to be implicated by you, I can only go first. ”
"But it's just a minor setback. The next step is to be carried out as usual, and I will go to you for consultation, Lord Black. After saying this, he gently turned the gemstone ring on his left index finger, and a portal immediately appeared.
After Ke Yann left, the woman who had been lying on the sand and stretched her body lazily spoke: "The plan of our Three Holy Societies is huge and complicated, and it is normal for a little mistake to make a mistake. Don't dwell too much on Dunwell's death, Longer. Just an idiot. Don't you still have a young son? Let's keep our eyes on the Sage's instructions. ”
"You say it easily, but that's my son! Aren't you furious when you know about the death of your brother Mendoza? ”
Longe roared wildly in his heart. But he did not dare to express the slightest dissatisfaction in the presence of this woman, a high-ranking member of the Three Holy Baptist Churches, the red-clothed black-clothed messenger Amavrey.
