Chapter 180: The Pursuit Soldier Arrives
"Okay, I'll listen to you, but even if you leave, you have to wait until you finish breakfast, otherwise where will you have the strength?"
"Okay! I'll help Miss. ”
When the old man saw that the girl had changed her mind, he immediately rejoiced and began to come forward to help.
In the hunter's hut there is an unused iron pot, which is not large, fixed to the stove, and is used by hunters to cook food during the hunting season. This is an old forest deep in the mountains, and there are few people, so the hunters did not take it away during the non-hunting season, and this is when Alan and the others come in handy.
The old man took some dead branches near the wooden house, broke them and threw them into the stove, but he obviously did not know how to make a fire, and took the branches that were wet by the rain, and tossed for a while, the fire did not rise, and the woman hurriedly stepped forward to help, but he was not as good as the old man, the two of them were in a hurry, the fire did not rise, but the smoke poured into a room, choking people could not open their eyes, and the two could only open the door of the house and smoke outside.
"Let me do it. ”
Alan really can't stand it, if he doesn't do it again, just rely on this old and young, let alone eat, even if it is noon, he may not be able to light a fire.
"Can you?"
The girl gently wiped the sweat from the corners of her forehead with her sleeve and asked in disbelief.
"Try it, we business people sometimes have to sleep in the wilderness, and it's common to make fires. ”
While dealing with the girl's questioning, Alan took the flint from the gray-faced old man's hand, then kneaded some broken grass in his hand, and finally gently rubbed it with the flint on the stove next to him, and the broken grass was ignited. Alan threw the broken grass into the still-damp wood, and the flames soon burst into flames. The whole process is as easy as if the surface of the wood is not stained with water, but with oil.
"It's really strange, we can't do anything, and he succeeds at once. ”
The old man was amazed when he saw that the flame seemed to come alive in Allen's hands.
"I'll go pick up some more wood. ”
Until the flame boiled the water in the pot, the girl poured all the vegetables and bamboo shoots she had picked in the mountains into the pot, and the old man saw that there was not much wood in the stove, so he clapped his hands and turned around to go out to find some more firewood. Alan frowned as the girl prepared breakfast, and just as he was guessing that today's breakfast would be very unpalatable, a voice that made him feel palpitations came from outside.
"Whoosh!"
It was the sound of an arrow breaking through the air.
"Poof!"
This was followed by the sound of clusters of arrows piercing flesh.
As soon as the voice fell, the old man who walked out of the door had fallen to the ground like a broken bag. The power of the bow and arrow was so great that the tip of an arrow even pierced the old man's chest and peeked out from his back.
"Not good!"
Alan heard the voice, turned his head and saw the sharp arrow piercing the old man's body, he immediately recognized that this was not an ordinary bow and arrow, but a hand crossbow, it was not like a bow and arrow before it was fired, it needed to bend the bow and arrow to prepare, it was a sharp weapon against the magician, and his previous shoulder wound was injured by this kind of hard crossbow. Now it seems that what he feared most has happened, and the people of the Holy See have followed him.
"Whoosh!"
Just as Eren was trying to understand all this, a second crossbow bolt tore through the air. This time, Eren barely thought about it, and instead directly unleashed the Spinning Air Shield magic, which was the only magic that could be used instantly to defend against crossbow arrows. However, the air shield magic can't block the crossbow arrows, it just ejects the crossbow arrows through the elastic force generated by rotation, which can protect the people hiding directly behind the air shield, but it can't protect the people hiding on both sides, and this time Allen's position is facing the door, so his instantaneous air shield only protects himself, but the worst thing is that the crossbow arrow that was bounced off by the air shield hit the girl not far from his right.
The sound of a crossbow arrow hitting the body with a "poof".
"Ahh
The girl only let out a brief call, and the whole person was carried backwards by the force of the crossbow arrow.
"Tuk Tuk!"
With a wave of his hand, Alan slammed the door shut with a gust of air, just blocking the two arrows from behind. Then he had time to turn around and examine the girl's injuries. The girl lay on her back on the ground, the hair on the back of her head scattered across her pale face, her eyes closed, not knowing whether she was dead or alive. What relieved Alan was that the crossbow arrow did not hit the vital point, but the injury was still very serious, the shoulder penetrated the girl's delicate shoulder, and only a short tail feather was left outside, although the injury was not fatal, but the premise was that Alan could rescue the girl in time, otherwise the arrow was likely to cause serious internal injuries, and a long delay would lead to excessive internal bleeding and death. But now that the enemy is present, if he wants to heal the girl, he must first deal with the enemy outside.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the house, and the attackers had come close to the hut, there were six people in total, and the two crossbowmen did not approach, but pointed their reloaded crossbows at a distance around the hut to prevent their targets from breaking through. The other four swordsmen stood in different directions of the wooden house, they cooperated with each other very skillfully, and they understood each other's meaning just by making a gesture, and now the opponent in the room was a powerful magician, and they couldn't give the opponent more time for him to prepare for magic, so when the gesture ended, the swordsmen had already concentrated their strength to break through the thin walls of the wooden house from different directions.
Rumble!
As the swordsmen entered, the wooden house suddenly exploded, turning into a cloud of shards of wood and a large amount of flames in between. A figure wrapped in a blue halo soared out of it, and flew towards the woods behind it with the force of the cabin's explosion.
"Whoosh!"
The crossbowman was quick-eyed, and with a raised hand, he shot two arrows at the figure in the air, all of which hit the blue light mask, which made a crisp cracking sound, and with a scream and the sound of leaves rustling, the man had already fallen into the forest.
"Chase!"
With a command, two hounds suddenly burst out of the grass and rushed around the burning wooden house towards the woods behind, and the four swordsmen activated their fighting qi protection in time at the same time as the wooden house exploded, and they were not injured, and the sparks on their bodies immediately followed, not wanting to give the injured magician a chance to breathe. In the end, only two crossbowmen remained, their crossbows were ineffective in the woods, so they chose to remain on guard outside.
Alan was not injured when he escaped from the house, he deliberately let out a scream just to make the opponent light the enemy, just now at the moment of crisis he summoned all the fire elements in the burning flames in the stove, and quickly cast a small flame bomb magic, due to the rush of time, the power of the magic is very small, can not cause effective damage to the opponent, but he successfully covered his retreat, he blessed two water shield magic on his body, and then with the help of the power of the flame bomb explosion to throw himself into the woods behind the hut, although his mental power has recovered a lot, but against the swordsman with a crossbow, it is still very dangerous, so he had to take out the enemy under the cover of the woods.
