It's been three days since Zuo Ze and Vader planned the "Killing Monsters and Sucking Spirits" operation, except for the small animals encountered along the way, the slightly longer strange creatures have not escaped the hunt of the two, so that they have caused ecological imbalance in the wilderness, and the vultures that keep wandering above their heads set off the monster-killing duo like messengers spreading death.

"Goblins, goblins, kobolds, and dire wolves, Vader. Do you think we can't kill some other monsters? You see, I've only absorbed 27 psionic energy until now. Zuo Ze looked at Vader beside him and complained.

"My lord, it's not that I don't want to kill, it's that I can't kill the enemy while keeping you safe." Telling the truth hurts the most, and Zuo Ze, who heard Vader's answer, didn't even have the idea of being angry. After getting along in the past few days, Zuo Ze has seen Vader's character clearly, resolute, reliable, and brainy, he is the best candidate to be a bodyguard, but he can't chat. The last drawback is completely imposed by Zuo Ze himself, you can't let an Agma Ice Chisel learn what it means to be skillful, perseverance and reliability are their qualities, and in the years of war with the dragon, they have become the defenders of the Ice Sacred Mountain.

Just when Zuo Ze was depressed alone, Vida, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, and Zuo Ze, who had not checked for a while, touched Vida's broad back. "What's wrong, Vader?" Zuo Ze asked.

"My lord, there are traces of a battle ahead, and there are humans on one side, and there are mages in it, but I don't know what monsters I fought with." Vader said.

Zuo Ze listened, walked out from behind Vader, and looked at the grass in the distance that was burned by fire, as well as the blood and stumps on the ground, all of which told Zuo Ze that there was a terrible battle here.

"My lord, please be careful, the battle here should not be more than an hour over." Vader replied with an experienced experience.

"Yes, okay." Zuo Ze nodded and said. Following behind Vader, he looked at everything around him and popped out his Hidden Blade in his right hand to start on the alert.

Vader checked the situation around and let out a sigh of relief, it seemed that both sides of the battle had already left. Putting down the ice shield in his hand, Vader began to check the traces of the battle, footprints, broken weapons, and stumps, etc., all of which could allow Vader to restore the battle scene at that time, and Zuo Ze followed Vader to learn these knowledge.

"My lord, you look, the fallen grass here proves that this was originally a premeditated ambush by humans, but not long after the battle began, the hunted creatures summoned their own kind, and here is the way it came, and then carried out a flanking attack, which led to the defeat of the humans, but I am strange that only a small part of the stumps were found, but no dead bodies were found, could it be that these ambushed monsters still eat people?" Vader said, touching her forehead.

After hearing this, Zuo Ze nodded in agreement and said: "Vader, your suspicion is correct, this is Toriel, there are many monsters here that eat people, can we find these humans along these traces, they should be able to communicate." ”

"No problem, my lord; But take care to keep yourself safe, those man-eating monsters are more than two meters in size and use heavy weapons, so in the event of a fight, you better stay away. Vader said with concern.

Zuo Ze nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will obey the party's command and save my life first." Vida turned around and led the way, not understanding how he had become a party.

Without saying a word all the way, the two chased along the traces of the battle.

"My lord, I see both sides of the fight." When Vader had just rushed up a hill, he retreated, turned his head to look at Zuo Ze and said.

"Far away? Vader. Zuo Ze asked. My lord, not far away, at the foot of the mountain, one hundred and twenty meters away, there were eight men, two warriors, three archers (rangers), and two assassins (wanderers), and finally a mage; It's just that now they don't look very good, and they should die without my support; Those two monsters are so good that only that mage can effectively kill them. ”

"Let's go, let's go up and have a look, be careful to hide." Zuo Ze said, Vader nodded, who made him so big. Lying on the top of the mountain, Zuo Ze carefully showed his head and looked at the fierce battle below, this is not a scene in the game, but a life-and-death struggle that costs his life.

I saw two two-meter-three-four monsters keep waving the log stick in their hands, making the two meat shield warriors retreat, the shield in their hands is no longer the same, looking like it is about to break, the long-range professional is constantly shooting bows and arrows, but the effect is almost none, the bow and arrow are hanging on the two monsters, and they are not affected by the injury at all, but they are even more angry; Not to mention the thin-skinned assassins, the small throwing knives and hand crossbows are completely ineffective.

Zuo Ze actually wanted to see the mage's spell the most, but he was a little disappointed to see that the mage wielding his staff for half a minute and only emitting a few rounds of acid and rockets. patting Vida who was lying on his stomach beside him, Zuo Ze asked, "Vida, what is the strength of the two sides below?" Can you handle it? ”

Vader said in a suppressed voice, "Don't worry, my lord. Those two monsters are only silver-level (challenge level 9) monsters, those humans except for the mage and a warrior are silver-level (level 8, 9), the rest are bronze level (level 6), they are together, I will not lose, I am an exemplary level powerhouse (level 15). ”

After listening to Vader's words, Zuo Ze thought for a while and said, "Our troops split into two ways, I went around the hillside and lurked fifty meters away from them, so as to absorb the spiritual energy of their death; And when you wait for them to be only half of them, when you go to save them, the love of sending charcoal in the snow is even more precious. ”

Vader nodded after hearing this, and did not refute anything, because he knew how much Zuo Ze was eager for psionic energy now.

By the time Zuo Ze ran all the way down, the battle in the field had changed. The warrior who has not reached the silver level for a long time will lose, and the shield in his hand was suddenly smashed away by a huge force, and when he saw that he was about to return to the underworld, the warrior next to him hurriedly stepped forward to help.

The sudden confusion of defense made the attack of the whole team chaotic, and I didn't know whether to save people or block the enemy; The two assassins stepped forward to save the man, but without the monster they were containing, they picked up the log in their hands and threw it at the archers in the distance. An archer couldn't dodge, vomited blood on the spot and flew out, and he didn't know if he was dead. One wrong step, one wrong step, the flow of the battle was interrupted, causing further casualties.

When Zuo Ze hurried to a place about fifty meters away from the field, he heard Ao's voice, "Absorb 15 points of spiritual energy, absorb 15 points of spiritual energy." Zuo Ze hurriedly looked up to observe the battle. The battle was almost over, with a mage, a warrior, and finally an assassin fleeing under two sticks, and Vader had already begun to rush down the hillside.

"Huh!" Hearing Vader's shout, the ice shield in his hand beckoned to a monster, knocking the monster nearly two hundred kilograms (400 pounds) away; and rescued the fleeing Assassins. Of course, the warrior and the mage will not miss this opportunity to beat the water dogs, the mage took out a spell scroll from his body and tore it open, the air suddenly became hot, the fire flashed, and a fireball spell hit the monster that was knocked away, emitting a low roar of flame explosion, and the flames began to burn on the monster.

Zuo Ze looked enviously at the mage who sent out the fireball technique, thinking that he also had the word mage in his profession, but what about himself? Needless to say, it's all tears, let's be a low-key assassin.

The warrior rushed forward, his sword in his hand and the head of the monster with the sound of the wind. Let the flames burn the monster's body, and Vader has already dealt with another monster, waving the ice shield, and cutting its body from the waist in two, looking at the monster that is still struggling, Vader can't help but be speechless, it is really tenacious vitality.

"Diggle, kill this troll with fire." The rescued Assassin screamed.

"Don't worry, he can't hurt anyone now. Thank you for your help. The mage named Diggle said, the spell casting action in his hand did not stop, and a second-level spell fire burning spell flew over, looking at the troll whose upper body had begun to burn, and his body began to relax. It was just an ordinary troll hunting operation, but I didn't expect such a big loss. Norwich's mercenary regiment was almost ready to be disbanded, leaving only him and Simon the Wanderer, and everyone else dead. Coupled with the third-level fireball scroll (worth 100 platinum coins) that he just threw out, the loss was really huge.

Seeing that the scene was under control, Vader shouted around, "My lord, where are you?" It's time to come out. Zuo Ze heard Vader's shout, and his heart was speechless for a while, the honest Vader had exposed his adulthood.

Before Zuo Ze stood up, he had already put down the hood of his cloak and covered his face. In a deliberately low tone, he said, "Okay, don't scream." I'm coming. When the three of them heard the conversation between Zuo Ze and the others, they glanced at each other, a little wary.

"Hello adventurers, my followers and I are lost, can you tell us where the nearest city is?" In order to deliberately maintain his mysterious image, Zuo Ze deliberately ignored the adventurer team in front of him, who suffered heavy casualties.

Diggle performed a wizarding ritual with some restraint, and a big man who could make a high-level professional follow should at least be a strong man close to a legend. Looking at Zuo Ze's outfit, coupled with the fact that he couldn't feel Zuo Ze's momentum, he thought that he was a powerful wanderer, and hurriedly said, "Your Excellency, hello, my name is Diger. The closest to this side is Netham, and we also came out of there, just to the northwest. ”

Listening to Diggle's words, Zuo Ze turned his head to look at Vader, but Vader was touching his forehead, obviously the two people looking for the city have been walking in opposite directions, so don't take the common sense that is not practiced as the truth, and the knowledge of different worlds cannot be universal.

Looking at the two who suddenly stopped talking, Diggle felt a strange atmosphere appear between the two adults, and the scene became even more silent and quiet.

Ps: The monetary system between the countries of the Torrell world is usually as follows: 1 platinum = 5 gold = 50 silver = 500 copper.
