Somewhere in the grass at the edge of the sea of fog, several figures slowly stood up.

At the head was a warrior in a green cloak, with a broadsword at his waist, a large dark shield in his hand, and two sparkling eyes, scanning ahead.

"Lord Haza, those guys don't seem to have arrived yet."

A man behind him whispered.

"Nonsense, can't I see it?"

The warrior named Haza said coldly.

"Go and ambush two people in the big tree over there, and pay attention to my gestures for a while."

With his command, two men, also cloaked in green cloaks, came out of the grass without saying a word, and then bent on their waists, and soon climbed up to the tree, hiding themselves by the dense foliage.

"Is there any news from Sabo?"

He asked a mage with a magic wand.

"There was a message a quarter of an hour ago that the man had left the camp alone and entered Area 9."

"Alone...... What a guts. ”

Haza stroked his beard under his chin:

"Luoer, you are also a magician, although you have not reached the realm of the Law Saint, you should also understand the combat methods of high-ranking mages."

"Tell me, if you are surrounded by a lot of things, what will a powerful magician do to get out of this predicament?"

The magician Rohr thought for a moment and replied with a serious expression:

"It depends on what spells the other person is good at...... If I say this, I will first use the ice ring with the shortest chant time to freeze all the enemies who are close to me, and even if they can't freeze, at least slow down their movements, and then use the stored magic with magic items to gain a head start. ”

"Ice rings and props."

Haza looked thoughtful:

"The magic of the Fa Saint itself is amazing, even if it is suppressed by this land, there should be some means of self-preservation; But our mission this time is not to kill him. If you're not completely sure, don't do it until support comes. ”

"There's news from Saab."

Wizard Rohr suddenly looked down at the crystal ball at the top of the staff:

"The man has arrived...... But there was no trace of the battle on his body, and he had now entered the area. ”

"The mage shouldn't be invisible, how did he dodge the attacks of those monsters?"

Haza's face changed slightly:

"Or is the information wrong, in fact, he didn't stay in the alchemy room to study the magic energy device, but has been secretly improving his strength outside? With a powerful spell, he swaggered over. ”

"Nope. Our intelligence is accurate, and the Combine is full of our spies, some of whom are very interested in illusion and golems, and can determine that he is the one in the alchemy lab. ”

"Very well, then wait for him to come."

Haza hung up his shield and placed his hand flat on the hilt of his broadsword, covering the black crystal embedded in the end of the sword.

This does not seem to be overly provocative, and it can draw the sword to fight at the first time, which is a common action of warriors in the field.

This sword of his is a magic weapon. The black crystal contains a dark spell called "Smoke Miasma Cloud", which can cover the entire area, and he actually has a lot of thief technology, once the negotiation breaks down, this is a paradise for assassination.

"The other party has already come...... What a strong mana fluctuation. ”

Magician Rohr spread out his palm with the three rings, sensed it in the air, and said with a solemn face.

"Don't forget, the rules of Faense no longer apply in the New World."

Haza chuckled under his breath:

"No matter how powerful his magic is. I can't play a tenth of the ...... here."

At this moment, a violent explosion roared, and the large tree in the distance suddenly burst into flames. The two figures screamed and fell from the tree, rolling desperately on the ground to extinguish the flames on their bodies.

"That's fire magic! - Prepare to meet the enemy! ”

Haza shouted, drawing his broadsword and shield.

The people behind him spread out very tacitly, scattered around.

If you're attacked by a spell, unless you want to be wiped out by an enemy. Otherwise, don't get together stupidly.

"What about scouts?" Haza's face turned red with anger: "It's obvious that we are preparing an ambush, how can we be attacked by others in turn!" These idiots! ”

"Hahaha......"

In the light of the fire, a man in a dark blue robe walked out laughing.

On his head was a noble top hat with a smooth surface like silk satin, with a faint arc of lightning flashing on it, which looked like a magical object with a history.

"Sneak attack? It makes me so sad that you say that. My dear Commander Haza. ”

The man raised his staff flat and made a gesture of regret:

"I came here openly, and I didn't hide my intentions at all."

As he spoke, he pressed his hat and said indifferently:

"But I happened to find two hiding rats in the trees over there, and I've always disliked sneaky guys, so I killed them...... That's all. ”

"That's our outpost, it's a very dangerous area, not for you, Lord Atwood."

Haza managed to calm his anger and struggled to keep his voice calm:

"But before the negotiations even began, you wounded two of my men...... I don't see any sincerity in you. ”

"Negotiations?"

Atwood's face was covered by a wide magic hat, but there was sarcasm on his lips:

"Looks like you've misunderstood, Commander Haza, I'm a busy man, and I'm not here for some hellish negotiation by taking time out of my busy schedule."

As he said this, his hand holding the staff slowly raised, and a terrifying magic began to surround his body:

"—but to bring you under my feet!"

"Break the Arrow!"

Feeling the magic of the other party, beads of sweat broke out on the face of the magician Rohr, and he used a spiritual spell to give instructions to everyone.

"Whoosh-"

Those in green cloaks lifted their cloaks one after another, pulled out delicate crossbow arrows from underneath, and fired a large rain of arrows at Atwood, who was chanting a spell.

This is an arrow made from a special metal of the New World, specially used to destroy mages' shields and small and medium-sized enchantments; If in Faenns. Naturally, this kind of thing can't hurt a powerful mage, but here, it is very effective against a newcomer who has just immigrated.

"Whew!"

A crossbow bolt invaded Atwood's magic shield and landed right on his wrist holding the staff.

A large number of arrows then swarmed in, shooting the body of the Pharans, who had been famous for a long time in Faens, into a hedgehog, and retreating backwards again and again.

"There was no blood on him! This could be a magic golem. Be careful, everyone! ”

Rohr's eyes were poisonous, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately issued a warning to everyone.

"Ahh Save me! ”

But it was too late, and with a scream, the weeds all over the ground suddenly began to grow wildly!

The smooth, flat leaves turned into long, sharp spikes, which then swept out like vines and snakes, entwining the scattered people together.

"Atwood, aren't you the best at fire magic?"

Rohr was the only one who wasn't attacked by the vines, as he was covered in a heavy layer of water elemental, and the vines made him a safe target.

"I'm very happy with you. Rohr, still on top of Haza's stupid boss. ”

Atwood, whose body was full of crossbow arrows, suddenly moved, and spoke.

As the words fell, his body slowly straightened.

Then he stretched out a hand and pulled out an arrow that had been inserted into his left eye, and then the eye instantly recovered, emitting a strange light.

"You're not...... Puppet? ”

Rour's eyes lit up with fear, and his hand holding the staff trembled. But his legs were like lead, and he couldn't move at all.

"Make no mistake. I'm the great Atwood, how could that be that kind of thing. ”

Atwood's face looked a little hideous, and he suddenly breathed a breath, and his body swelled up, turning into a black monster several meters tall.

"Evil, demon!"

Firmly locked by the vines, Haza cried out in horror:

"You're a demon!"

"That's right. I'm a demon...... The Great Demon Monarch Atwood, the king who ruled the continent thousands of years ago! ”

The roaring sound of Atwood was heard, and there was a shock in the air, which was terrifying.

It stretched out a finger and smirked at the people in front of it:

"Surrender to my feet, and I can bestow upon you unimaginable power and wealth. And transform you into powerful demons, and then gain eternal life! ”

"Don't believe the devil's word! It's bewitching us! ”

Haza shouted as he endured the pain from the spikes.

"If you don't surrender, you die!"

A black light shot out from the tip of Atwood's finger that pierced Haza's head, and the latter's eyes immediately widened.

Then a stream of red and white liquid flowed down from the door of his head, and the face quickly turned to ashes, as if the vitality had been sucked dry in an instant, and the whole person turned into a skeleton-like dried corpse.

"We—"

Rohr spat out two syllables in a trembling voice, trying to say something.

At this time, I only heard a bang, and a large hole was suddenly blown open in the heavy ground, and a figure rolled out of it.

The figure rolled out of the ground numbly, leaving a trail of black slime, and then slowly stood up in front of everyone's eyes.

"Deathwalker ――――――!!!"

When they saw each other's faces clearly, those who were tied up began to struggle violently! One of them even shouted a name in a terrible voice, as if he had been struck by a sharp blade.

"Get us out, you bastard!" Many began to curse the demon that had terrified them a moment earlier, much to Atwood's surprise and annoyance.

"You stubborn human ......"

It was about to grit its teeth and teach the other a lesson, but saw the Deathwalker begin to limp to the side, and one of the people who was closer to him cried out in fright, because it was coming this way.

However, the Deathwalker ignored the man, and walked past him without stopping.

Then, in full view of everyone, the frightened people slowly stopped screaming, and watched in amazement as the infamous monster fled towards the grass that had not yet been burned not far away, and soon disappeared inside, as if hiding something.

"Wow wow, I'm mad!"

At this moment, an angry female voice came from the hole that had been blown open.

Then a dirty head popped out of it and crawled out of the hole with its arms propped up.

"Phew!" Then he spat on the ground a few times regardless of the image, patted the dirt on his face and body, revealing his beautiful silver hair and a face covered with dust. (To be continued.) )
