The summer forest doesn't have much heat, on the contrary, it is a little refreshing when the breeze blows.

In this era, there was no such thing as "asphalt roads", and the forest paths were basically driven by caravans, and it was normal for "thunderclapped trees" to stand in front of the road, but out of caution, Carl decided to check it out before continuing on the road.

To be called the "Secret Service Chief", his vigilance in these details speaks for itself.

However, the high-ranking Shadow Priest never imagined that the situation of "darkness under the lamp" would happen to him.

Sally dismounted from her horse slowly, and then stood there dumbfounded, staring blankly ahead.

Carl was chatting with the lieutenant and didn't notice her movements and behavior, and after confirming this, Sally slowly moved to the side in an imperceptible motion... As a warhorse was dragged past her by soldiers, Sally raised her arm slightly, quickly drew a dagger from the side of the saddle, and then quietly hid it in her sleeve.

She breathed a sigh of relief as she swept her eyes around to make sure that no one around her was noticing.

However, before she could think about how to deal with the current situation, a short shout suddenly came from not far behind her...

"Ahh

Sally wanted to turn back, but she resisted the desire, and then raised her eyes and quietly looked at Carl not far in front of her.

"What's going on?"

The bishop asked, coming from three members of the barricade not far away, but when he got up to look, he saw one of them fall to the ground with an arrow...

"Damn it!"

Cursing in a low voice, Karl did not show a panicked look, he raised his hand to protect his body with a "shadow shield", and then took two steps back, allowing the giant tree to block the attack that might come from behind, and shouted: "Prepare to fight!"

As the words fell, the three soldiers who were scouting the barricade had been killed by the arrows that came one after another, and Karl's heart was slightly cold, and he looked into the forest, but found that there was no trace of the enemy at all.

Spells such as "Energy Convergence", "Dark Word: Weaving", and "Swarm Shadow Armor" were cast, and the trained soldiers drew their swords and scimitars to move closer to each other, but it was only then that they discovered the problem...

"Where's Crowe?"

"I don't know!"

Seeing this scene, Karl's face became more and more gloomy, he glanced at Sally, who was still standing there, and immediately ordered her to move closer to the team with "mind control".

Sally didn't know what was happening because she didn't look back, but after feeling Karl's order, she quietly moved the dagger into the sleeve of her robe and walked over...

"Don't spread out, act in squads. ”

Karl grabbed the approaching Sally, let her stand in front of him as a "human shield", and then ordered: "Mukla, take someone to the left to investigate." ”

"Yes!"

As a team on a special mission, the members of these Pit Viper Cross have a lot of combat quality, and they quickly changed formations at this time, but before the team could advance, they heard a "whooshing" movement not far from the right...

Carl's gaze froze, and when he raised his hand, there was a range of "corrosion technique" - more than a dozen trees were instantly corroded and broken by the shadow energy, and after the "click" was broken, everyone's vision immediately widened.

Then they saw a swaying leaf in the distance of the forest.

"Over there!"

The team of five immediately rushed out, they held their breath and stared ahead, but after thirty or forty meters into the forest, they realized that it was not an enemy who was making a noise, but a pintail snipe that was itching in a funny posture on the trunk of a tree...

It looked at the infidel with some innocent eyes, shouted "Ou Ou Ou Ou" a few times, and then tilted its head and continued to scratch its belly.

"What, this is..."

The leader of the squad let go and frowned, turned around and said, "Continue to be vigilant, prepare to return-"

Before he finished his words, he suddenly felt that something was wrong in front of him: there should be four people who followed him, but why were there five in front of him?

"Poof!"

In the next second, the figure standing at the back of the team suddenly attacked, and the dagger and short sword in his hand were unsheathed at the same time, directly piercing the hearts of the two people in front of him!

Then he leapt forward, a flickering blade slicing the throat of the next foe, twisting his body and smashing the captain's jaw before the blood could hit the ground-

"Kara!"

The sound of shattering sounded, and the captain, who didn't have time to call for help, flew out on his back, his brain completely lost his ability to react because of the concussion, and the moment his body fell to the ground, he vaguely saw the scene of the last member being hacked to death...

From the time the opponent strikes to the time everyone falls to the ground, a total of three seconds have passed.

The man tried to call for help, but couldn't make a sound because his jaw was shattered. Then the calm face of the other party appeared in the field of vision, and his whisper was faintly heard in his ears:

"May the god of pit vipers protect you in hell. ”

The dagger was drawn from his enemy's chest, and Roddy took a deep breath, then waved at the "Duck Reach", turned and galloped in the direction of Carl.

Although the "Duck Duck" does not have much attack power and skills, it is easy to create some movements to confuse the enemy in this kind of forest, at this time, it circled low from a distance, and landed directly on the left side of Carl and the others, and the dust and fallen leaves raised immediately attracted their attention, and it was not surprising that it once again deceived the bishop with a "corrosion technique"——

And just as Carl's eyes were staring at the direction where the duck was, the "click" sound of the shield being hit suddenly sounded, and Roddy's "Arcane Shot" frantically attacked the four guards at an alarming frequency, and he turned on the "Wind Rapidity" attached to the cuirass crystal, and after cooperating with the "Rapid Shot", the rate of fire was pushed to the extreme, and he actually forcibly shot four arrows in a second and a half!

By the time Carl reacted, the swift arrows had already knocked down two of the guards!

The short bow was raised horizontally, and the movements of drawing arrows, taking arrows, and pulling strings with his right hand quickly became a phantom, and in the process, Luo Di did not stop, and always moved forward...

The bow in his hand panned left and right to aim at the enemy, but the focus of his eyes was on the woman who was pushed in front of Carl - Sally's body was not restrained, this discovery made Roddy's heart cold, he was not afraid that he would recognize the wrong person, but that she would suffer an unhealable mental injury...

The anger in his heart was overwhelming, but the bow and arrow in his hand never dared to aim at Carl, because the other party was always hiding behind Sally!

The effect of "Wind Rush" only lasted for three seconds, and after the first arrow, the two remaining guards also lost their shields and rushed towards them with weapons in hand.

His gaze swept over Karl, who was casting a spell behind him, and after turning on the "Dash", he turned around and ran towards a huge tree on the side - the "Shadow Arrow" that followed was about to hit Roddy, and he raised his right hand to activate the "Traction Technique" on the glove.

The canopy seemed to suddenly possess a suction force, directly pulling Roddy into the air!

The trunk of the tree was twenty or thirty meters high, and the sudden ejection of Roddy seemed to fly into the sky, easily dodging the attacking shadow arrows, and making the two pagan guards who rushed over not know how to attack.

And Roddy, who was flying in mid-air, quickly canceled the "traction technique" and opened the "light feather technique" in the cuirass before his body was about to fall heavily to the ground... The next moment, he landed safely behind a giant tree not far from Karl.

This series of actions made Roddy's trail look like a ghost, but Bishop Karl was unmoved. He was well aware of the fact that the other party must have come for Sally!

If you didn't care about Sally's life, those arrows would definitely hit you in the first place.

Karl was glad for his caution, but then anger rose.

Just because he's not an "aggressive" Darkherd doesn't mean he can't fight - Carl ducks behind Sally and immediately recites a lengthy incantation.

Roddy lunged out from behind the tree, but the arrow in his hand never shot because Sally was in the way. He stared at Karl anxiously as he pondered what to do.

However, just when Roddy felt that there was nothing he could do, he noticed that Sally suddenly winked at him.

"Mental Shock!"

Carl, who is proficient in the "spirit system", casts his single strongest damage skill, such a spell is a directional spell, not like the shadow arrow has a trajectory, but completely relies on mental power to hit the opponent's mind - this attack is invisible, but powerful, and the most important thing is that it can't dodge at all, even a high-level magical beast may be shocked into an idiot by a blow, or even die unharmed.

Karl cast the spell with a hideous face, but then found that after Roddy was hit, his pupils flashed a white aura, and the running action did not stop at all...

"How is that possible?!"

A person with a strong mind may not be hit hard, but there will be a short pause, and such a situation that is not affected at all is unheard of for Carl, he took an excited step forward, raised his hand and cast the "Disturbing Mind Technique", only to find that his spell still had no effect!

The spiritual immunity of the "Mark of the Dragon Slayer" gave Carl a profound educational lesson.

Carl panicked and tried to force Roddy back by threatening Sally, but before he could gather the elements, Sally suddenly moved in front of him...

"What?!"

Carl never thought that "mind control" would fail, and Sally's seemingly inadvertent step made his heart instantly cold...

The next moment, Roddy's "Burst Arrows" came one after another, completely shattering this "Shadow Shield".

Karl took a step back, and in a hurry, he pulled a scroll from his waist and tried to tear it open, but Sally, who was standing in front of him, shook her arm, grabbed the dagger that slipped out of the sleeve of her robe, twisted her and shook her arm, and shaved off the bishop's palm on the spot!

Sally and Roddy's tacit cooperation made Carl have no power to fight back, and when the bishop raised his head again, all he saw was Roddy's cold eyes-

"Poof!"

The dagger pierced the heart and took away all the heat.

Blood dripped to the ground, but Luo Di didn't stop, picked up the short bow and dealt with the last two guards chasing from afar, and then turned his head and looked at the "unfamiliar" but familiar figure in front of him.

"I—I—"

He wanted to say something, but Sally didn't give him a chance to speak—she couldn't hold back the excitement and joy in her heart any longer, and threw herself into Roddy's arms with open arms.

Forthwith... Wept bitterly.
