Chapter 379: The Cursed Dukal

June 11, early in the morning.

After the ruins exploded, Roddy's team camped nearby in the nearby forest and rested for the night. Because of the death of his comrades, the morale of the whole team was inevitably a little low.

Reality will never be the epic story of the heroes of the bard, the Grim Reaper forever floating above everyone's heads, and even this once invincible team is now enveloped by an unspeakable oppression.

And for Roddy, it was also the first time he had a "helpless" bad feeling for his enemies - for which he stayed up all night.

There are many reasons for insomnia, but Roddy never tosses and turns out of despair and powerlessness... That night, there was only one question on his mind

What should you do if you encounter such an enemy again?

The real world is not a card game made up of numbers, and in Roddy's experience, whether it's humans, orcs, undead, or dragons, there's never been anyone who "crushes" anyone.

This point, it is enough to see from the definition of "critical hit" in "Ripp": even if it is a dragon standing at the top of the strength pyramid, if it is stabbed in the eye by a dagger, it will also be blind and scream, and if you are less than 1O level advanced, you really can't beat the enemy who has advanced to level 6?

The team's next goal is to continue the search for hedrons, but as the team leader, Roddy also has to consider the importance of "making amends": if he encounters the team of the "Holy Order" again, will he just run away or wait for death?

There was only one answer in Roddy's mind: never.

As the morning light shone into the camp, Roddy, who had been sitting in front of the campfire the night, clenched his fists and got up to exhale, he twisted his body a few times, and the "click" of the bones rubbing against each other was especially abrupt in the quiet of the camp - he stepped over to his bag and began to rummage through the scrolls and potions he had taken with him when he left Elsa's village.

Roddy did a lot of things to defeat the strong with the weak, and when he advanced to level 2 before being reborn, he successfully assassinated three enemies who advanced to level 45 alone, and thus became famous in a battle - the title of "Shadow Hunter" is not only given by the game, but also by the later level 59, it is also what players call Roddy.

After the initial frustration, Roddy immediately began to plan for dealing with the "Holy Order" as a feasible goal - he was not afraid of failure and setbacks, because Roddy never lost hope in his heart.

As the soldiers got up and began to eat breakfast, Sodrol, with two dark circles under his eyes, had apparently not slept well that night, and he ran back and forth from camp to camp, not forgetting to whisper encouragement to the morale of the soldiers; Nata's figure occasionally appears in the camp, but it always quickly disappears into the outer woods, as if on the alert...

Akasha, who had slept in Roddy's tent, had nightmares and woke up with a few tear streaks in the corners of her eyes, and the first thing she did when she got up was to rush out of the tent to confirm Roddy's location - and the little priest's rapid breathing gradually calmed down when she saw that he was not far away.

Then she realized that Roddy was studying something in a whisper with Sodlore, Nata, and a dozen soldiers:

"Don't think about getting closer, everyone can raise their shields at any time and alternately move forward to block..."

"At this time, Nata pay attention..."

Halfway through his words, Roddy noticed Akasha's gaze, turned his head and continued: "Just when you woke up, I'm talking about some tactical arrangements, you can cooperate with the demonstration." ”

"Huh? Oh okay..."

Akasha hurriedly wiped her cheeks, and when she raised her gaze, she saw that Roddy's depression from last night had been swept away, and there was an indescribable calm taste at this time.

This is fundamentally different from those young people who are anxious to jump at the slightest frustration, and that kind of calm momentum seems to invisibly settle their hearts.

"Akasha, cast all your blessing spells on me."

At the sound of Roddy's words, the crowd listened to him explain for half an hour, and then carried out a morning of "drills" - at noon, Roddy wiped the sweat from his forehead and announced that the whole team would move on.

"The combat team is following me, the engineer team is following in the rear, we must hurry."

Roddy didn't want to bet all his bets on the last ruin, so he had five Wood Elf hunters simultaneously probe the other five ruins with a low probability of hedrons, so that he would have a little leeway if he found nothing in the final objective.

But it was already the eleventh of June, and if you count the transportation from the last ruins to Elson City, the time left for Roddy-

I'm afraid it's been less than fifteen days.

The traces left by the makeshift camp have not been cleaned up, and the shattered ruins not far away still seem to smell of burnt, and time has gone backwards... After two days, the place cooled down completely, and all that remained seemed to have disappeared in the heat of the explosion.

In early summer, the temperature in the forest gradually rises after the sun rises, and in the afternoon, when it is the hottest time of the day, a figure in an ice-blue robe suddenly appears in the center of the ruins.

It was as if the man who appeared out of thin air stood on a crystallized stone like a melted sandstone. His face was unusually handsome, his ears had a sharp arc like a high elf, his body was slender and well-proportioned slightly taller than that of ordinary people, his dark blue head was bound by a silver crown, and although his face was expressionless, it exuded an indescribable arrogance because it was out of place with the surrounding qiΔ“.

An indifferent gaze slowly swept around, and the majesty that spread out startled away all the birds and beasts in the nearby forest.

He just stood there quietly, and a layer of hoarfrost gradually spread on the originally charred ground around him, and even some stones "crackled" and cracked because they couldn't withstand the violent temperature difference...

But he didn't bother about it, just took a light breath, closed his eyes and carefully discerned the "smell" he was looking for in the airβ€”and after a few seconds, the corners of his mouth finally curled slightly.

"Finally... Found you. ”

June 16.

Elson City has finally welcomed a team that has come all the way from the Silent Forest.

Under the orders of the Duke of Angmar, the nobles of the realm had to fully cooperate with Roddy's long-distance transportation - the prestige he had killed was there, and no one dared to slack off, so after the first batch of spars was transported to the village of Elsa, the horses were immediately rotated and transported to the city of Elson without stopping.

To this day, many of the ninety-three charged crystals have been transported into the inner city.

However, Camilla, who was the center of the city's defense, did not check the color or quality of those spars for the first time, but instead came directly to Buffon, who personally escorted these spars, and asked loudly: "Roddy didn't come back?" ”

"Ms. Camilla, Lord Roddy is still in the forest, and the amount of cargo this time is total-"

"He's still in the forest? When was the last time you gave a message? ”

Buffon didn't expect Camilla to interrupt him without even asking about the number of spars, but seeing her anxious face and worried look, he paused and quickly replied: "The time for obtaining this batch of spars should be around the first of June, before the first day, Lord Roddy's team was normal, there were no losses and accidents, but what happened after that... We don't have any definite information. ”

He knew that the woman in front of him could be regarded as half the master of the city, so he answered truthfully.

However, hearing this, Camila's face became even more gloomy, her gaze swept over the team behind her, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she suppressed the feelings in her heart, and said in a low voice: "Hard everyone, just unload the spar under the magic tower, food and accommodation have been arranged." ”

"Thank you, Ms. Camilla."

Buffon led the team away, walked a few steps, and saw a little girl not far away running to Camilla's side with cheerful steps, and then he heard the other party's voice shouting "Mom", and suddenly felt a little surprised - Camilla's appearance is too young, not like a mother who has given birth to a child at all...

However, he didn't have a deeper understanding of Camilla's identity, so he sighed with emotion, looked at it a few times, and then left with the team.

On the other side, Nephie looked at Camilla's haggard face and asked worriedly, "Mom... You have a very bad face. ”

Because Camila's physical condition was still unclear, Nefi only thought that his mother was worried about Roddy, so he explained: "Brother Roddy is very strong, it only took a few seconds to defeat those guys. ”

Camila smiled reluctantly, she gently stroked Nefi's red, and whispered, "I've heard you say it many times, your brother Roddy is the best." ”

She said so, but in her heart, she kept praying that the large-scale hedron explosion had nothing to do with Roddy... But logically, at this time, it will be related to the "Charged Hedron Explosion", who else will there be besides Roddy?

Will he already...

"Mom?"

"Huh?" Camilla woke up suddenly, and when she saw her daughter's somewhat worried look, she tried her best to suppress the panic in her heart, and changed the topic: "What books have you been reading these days?" Let me hear you, you can't be lazy. ”

"I'm looking at the "Conversation with the Dragon" left by that big sister," Nephie pointed to the sky, "It turns out that there is such a magical race in this world, which can actually transform into human form and communicate with high elves."

"Dragons?" Camila was not interested in this topic, and was a little absent-minded at this time, so she asked casually: "Then I'll test you with a common sense... What was the first high elf to kill a dragon called? ”

"Uh..."

Nefi was stuck, his eyes widened and he thought for a long time, and then hesitated, "Bu-Blax? Wrong... It's kaI, ka, yes, it's Dukal's Cursed Dukal,"
