Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Faced with the approaching enemy, Gordon did not panic. He took out two bottles of potion from the dimensional pouch and poured them down in a few sips, and the grace of a cat and the aura of jumping suddenly appeared on his body. Gordon, who is no longer a poor mage, has stored a sufficient amount of various magic potions in the dimensional bag, just to cope with the current situation.
With the blessing of the elegance of the cat, Gordon now has an agility attribute of 17 points, which is already past the low-level wanderer. With the help of the jumping technique, he easily escaped before the encirclement was closed.
"Bastard! This guy is going to run! β
Gordon sneered and took out the White Bone Wand: "Want to run?" Says who? β
The thought flickered, and six thick green water arrows shot out from the tip of the rod.
The four attackers' eyes widened suddenly, and they watched in disbelief as six acid arrows were fired towards them. They immediately stopped rushing forward and rolled to the side in an attempt to avoid the deadly acid.
However, there were still two people who were unfortunately hit by strong acid arrows. Two dark green splashes bloomed on the bodies of the two unlucky ghosts, like the most poisonous flowers.
ε²ε²......
The acid corrodes the leather armor and clothing, and then bit by bit, completely and quickly peels off the flesh and bones. The acid made a permeating sound on the human body like a poisonous snake spitting letters, and a rancid smell spread in the air.
The power of the powerful Yofu Acid Arrow is so terrifying that it takes less than three seconds for a human body to be completely corroded and melted.
Rushing to the rear, the guy dressed as the leader of the four attackers, seeing the remaining two strong acid arrows rushing towards him, he gritted his teeth and grabbed the surviving companion and blocked him.
"Ahh The hapless human flesh shield only had time to let out a terrible scream, and was killed by a strong acid arrow.
"It's ugly."
Gordon pursed his lips, and the wand shot two more green rays.
He thought that the other party would take this opportunity to escape, so he shot two strong acid arrows, trying to block the other party's retreat. But Gordon clearly underestimated the other side's determination. The Raider Leader actually held the human shield that was constantly corroded by the acid, and rushed towards him!
He suddenly pulled a crystal out of his trouser pocket, crushed it, and slammed it on the ground.
Tiny crystal fragments turned into crystalline points of light in the air, and a wave of magical energy was released from them.
"Lion's Charge!"
Gordon's heart pounded, he didn't expect the other party to leave this hand. Gordon retreated sharply, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to block in front of him.
"Haha, it's late!" The attackers suddenly threw away the corroded human shield. With the blessing of the spell, he sprinted violently with a degree that was difficult to see with the naked eye, instantly narrowing the distance between himself and Gordon to zero.
The dagger was like lightning, and it pierced the translucent disc-like mage shield with difficulty, leaving a half-shallow wound on Gordon's arm.
The pain made the mage's cheeks twitch violently, but Gordon, who was experienced in "Ancient Era", did not mess up, he pressed his magic wand against the opponent's chest, and shot another powerful acid arrow.
"Now, you don't have a human shield to save your life."
The last assailant lost his life, and in an instant his body collapsed with a large hole in his chest corroded by acid.
The sound of the system sounded.
"You killed three Level 3 Wanderers and gained 18o experience points."
"You killed a Level 4 Wanderer and gained 1oo of experience."
"Note that when you are in a state of stiffness, when you cast all spells that require action elements, you need to perform a cast focus check, if the check is not cleared, the spell will fail. This state lasts for 72 hours and can be lifted by the six-ring magic 'Healing Technique'. β
Gordon raised his arm, glanced at the wound caused by the dagger, the blood mixed with a strange blue, and when he moved, both hands were now as if they were frozen, sluggish, numb, and the sensation gradually dissipated.
"Damn it!" He cursed secretly, "It seems that in order to win this duel, Hao Lin and Dunwell really did everything. β
This attack was obviously not for Gordon's life, otherwise the dagger would have been smeared with deadly poison. Hit this stiff toxin, in a duel, Gordon's casting success rate will definitely drop significantly.
Like a clichΓ© cop action movie, after Gordon killed four attackers, the patrols that were denied by the fire were late.
"Mr. Mage, what's going on here?" The patrol leader was startled by the four unrecognizable corpses on the ground, but in the face of Gordon, who had made this qiΔ, he didn't dare to be arrogant in front of that mage robe, and just asked politely.
"They came to attack me, and I killed them, it's as simple as that." Gordon's voice was as cold as ice. Clearly, he was trying to suppress his anger.
The patrol leader secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, plucked up his courage and said, "It's better for you and me to go back and investigate." β
"I'm Baron Gordon Freeman, and I'm going to teach a vile and shameless crunch a hard time, do you understand?"
"But......" The patrol leader tried to insist, but when he saw the rage in Gordon's dark eyes, even though the anger was not directed at him, the third-level warrior's heart skipped a few times without a fight, and he could barely open his mouth.
"Your Excellency, Lord Baron, please take care of it, I will personally come to the door at my convenience to inquire about this attack."
Looking at the back of Gordon's departure, the patrol captain and several of his subordinates breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and their backs were soaked in cold sweat.
"I don't know who angered this mage, someone is going to be unlucky." They thought.
β¦β¦
Platinum Place, 8:45 a.m.
After the intentional or unintentional expansion of publicity by both Gordon and Hao Lin, this duel attracted a large number of adventurers to watch. Even many passers-by couldn't help but stop and stay to take a look at the bustle.
Whether in the savage orc tribes, they rely on their muscles and fists to decide where food and slaves belong; Or in the lavish and elegant court, wielding a sharp sword to decide who can get glory or love; Or in the dark and deep city of Drow, which is filled with an atmosphere of intrigue, use the quenched dagger and magic to decide who is the head of the family. In the world of Telos, where the rule of law is not yet perfect, dueling is a very common activity, and is even regarded by many as the fairest and most effective way to resolve conflicts.
Today, another duel that the people like to see is about to begin, and what is special is that the protagonists of this duel are two mages.
It's exciting to think of the calm and wise mages who use their spells to fight to the death in the dueling arena. Even after the spell slots are exhausted, there is a good chance that there will be a rare sight of two mages holding clubs and daggers and fighting hand-to-hand - this is much rarer and more energetic than two barbarian warriors fighting around.
Everyone was looking forward to this duel. As for the focus of the dispute between the two mages: whether Hao Lin spread rumors and slandered Gordon, no one cares anymore - one qiΔ to the impartial platinum dragon god Bahamut is enough.
Hao Lin was sitting side by side with Dunwell in a luxury carriage. He was relaxed and confident.
"Fifteen minutes to go, and it looks like Gordon is going to be late."
"Four professional thieves surprise attack a low-level mage, and they shouldn't miss. Gordon will consume a few spell slots, and he'll be stained with the stiffness toxin I bought so heavily, and you'll have a good chance of winning, Master Haolin. Dunwell gave a grim smile.
Hao Lin disagreed: "You are too careful, with my strength, even if you don't use this method, you can easily pinch Gordon to death." β
"Gordon is not a stupid person, do you really think that he has no means to hide and will offer to duel you? If he wins this time, Gordon will fall into the abyss, and there is no possibility of turning over. His baronial title, his beautiful sister, will be at his fingertips. So, I have to be cautious. β
After proposing to Sheona and sending someone to murder Gordon, Dunwell, who was originally reckless, also learned to be careful.
"Then, Mr. Dunwell, please appreciate in a moment how I torture Gordon."
"I'm going to enjoy it."
At 8:50 a.m., Gordon finally appeared.
As a disciple of the Lannister family, Dorne, who was one of the witnesses to the duel, greeted him: "The duel is about to begin...... Your arm hurts! What happened? β
"It's nothing, killing four filthy rats, this little injury doesn't make a difference." Gordon understated. Although the success rate of casting spells will be affected because of the Zombie Toxin, after this period of accumulation and unremitting practice, his casting focus skill has reached 8 points. As long as you don't use a spell that is higher than the three rings, the body should not be affected too much by the toxins.
"Look at your face, you should have been poisoned by the stiffness toxin. I think it would be extremely unwise to go to the stage in this state to fight a duel. A melodious female voice came. Gordon looked over, and now he was covered in silver armor, and the tall and slender Golden Saint Warrior walked towards him. By her side, followed by Pastor Jack.
"Renus Paladin?" Gordon remembered, wasn't this the holy warrior who slashed the demon lord's clone with a sword in the cemetery? That night, this golden-eyed, heroic paladin left a deep impression on Gordon.
Seeing that a big beautiful woman suddenly appeared, Dorn seemed to have something to do with Gordon, and wanted to make fun of the two of them, but after glancing at the long sword hanging from Renus's waist, he decided that it would be better to quietly retreat to the side.
"At the invitation of Pastor Jack, I came to see this duel." Renus bowed slightly to Gordon, as if she had said hello.
Pastor Jack, who was following her, couldn't help but laugh: "Obviously you came with yourself, when did I invite you?" β
But he wouldn't say such a thing, he was just an ordinary pastor, a mid-level member of the church, and Renus, who was deeply favored by Lady Dawn, couldn't afford to provoke herself, and it was not easy to speculate on the other party's thoughts.
Pastor Jack was invited to watch the duel today, mainly to see how the originator of the rumors, Hao Lin, who had allowed himself to be insulted by adventurers, failed. But Gordon's physical condition doesn't seem to be promising.
"To remove the toxins from your body, you need the Six-Ring Divine Technique 'Healing Technique', but where is the time to find a high-level priest who knows the Six-Ring Divine Technique now?" Pastor Jack was worried.
"It's easy, please be relieved, Pastor Jack." Renus said, pulling out the silver sword from her waist.
The streamlined blade radiates a light like a rising sun under the early morning sky. Set with three dawn diamonds, the sun-shaped gauntlet is engraved with an intricate and beautiful line: "Even if the night is long, the dawn will come." β
"It's ...... Dawn! Pastor Jack exclaimed.
