Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Legend of the Wandering Skies
Following the enemy's trails, the three rangers quietly chased after them. This is not a difficult thing to do, especially when the cold wind is steadily blowing down from the iceberg. In the downwind, the smell can be avoided by the bear's sense of smell, and the prey's voice can be relatively clearer.
From time to time, they burst into laughter, expressing their joy at the success of driving Thomas away, and their contempt for the cowardly coward. Thomas didn't fluctuate in his heart, and even wanted to laugh a little.
How stupid would it be for a barbarian to give up his long-range advantage and play hand-to-hand combat with them, and the enemy's slander only shows that the psychological damage of sniper warfare has indeed worked.
According to Cortana's calculations, the barbarians who served as bear cavalry were more dangerous in close quarters than the white bears they used as mounts because of their martial skills and use of weapons.
The Kulag who takes the lead is superb in martial arts, and he can strengthen himself with the power of the white bear. Thomas watched as he wrestled with the Frost Giant after his transformation, dragging the mammoth as he walked. This kind of person is simply a fierce general who came out of the storytelling romance, with at least a few thousand catties of strength in his arms, he can travel on land and uproot the weeping willows. However, when I was on Earth before, I listened to Kurgal blowing water on the forum, saying that in some books, Luo Cheng and even a certain veteran could take advantage of Li Yuanba by skill, and Li Yuanba was finally killed by thunder. Therefore, this kind of violent tiger Feng He, which can be called a "strange power and chaos", is nothing in the face of magic.
"It's not like I haven't touched the tiger's tail," he glanced at Baihua: "It's better to say that a grass cat like me is a real macho man." Yes, only a macho man has the courage to grass cat. ”
Thinking of his Steam game library, Thomas couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy in his heart. I have lived without computers, the Internet, and games for several years, which was unimaginable before. But luckily there are cats, and that's enough.
Kurag's voice came in an excited voice: "These are the few times that the hunter is running fast. But in the future, when the warriors of our clan work together, one man's bow and arrow will be nothing...... It is said that southerner archers will shoot arrows in a panic before entering the range, and then before they can shoot two or three volleys, they will be rushed in front of them, and whether they can hit or not depends on luck—— so it can be seen that it is a garbage weapon. ”
Although that being said, in order to prevent his cold arrow sniping, the bear warriors now often carry door panels and tower shields when they go out. Ranger 1 Ring spell slots are tight, and even if they are all used to cast spells that make arrows penetrate wood, it will not be enough.
In addition to shooting people, he used rockets to destroy equipment. The Elven Scout's "Dragon's Breath Arrow", despite its vulgar name, is very effective in igniting with this special arrow using asphalt rosin and alchemy. Under the guidance of Swan Maiden, he seems to have set fire to the granary of the bear clan......
The bears laughed and talked loudly with impunity, the kurags pressed the formation, and the hermits in the clouds walked intently on the loose snow, but the speed was still guaranteed to be at the forefront.
The three people who followed behind walked lightly, softer than the sound of snowflakes falling on the ground.
Baihua stared at the hermit in the clouds, thinking about how to pounce on it and attack the key points to kill with one blow.
The dwarf followed Thomas with his head down, looking through the backpack that the swan had given to the ranger. Ranger can only use certain wands of the druid, and the scrolls cannot be deciphered. Gnomes, poets, and thieves can be forcibly simulated. Thomas and Hundred Flowers are basically running out of equipment and can only wait for tomorrow to recover, and before that, they will need to rely on these scrolls and wands. The dwarf has been recuperating for a long time, and with the addition of scrolls, it is enough to support a battle.
The ranger and the gnome discussed tactics in a low voice, hearing a commotion from the front team and the cries of goblins.
"It seems that there is some treasure on the cliff in front of us, and the goblins discovered it first. This group of people came and snatched. The dwarf listened for a while, and the interpreter said.
The three of them leaned in, but saw that the bear people had already made a brazen move. The largest of the kurag greatswords swung into the wind, slashing melons and vegetables at the waist of goblins. The hermit in the clouds, who was only dressed in single clothes, also shot like lightning, and quickly killed the goblins with the bear cavalry.
"Even if they are all under the hands of the Ice Witch, the life of the goblin is worthless. The ranger was not surprised, after all, treasures are inhabited by the virtuous.
After clearing the goblins who were overwhelmed, the hermit in the clouds rushed up the cliff with steel nails and ropes and other tools, and with the strength of his hands and feet. He doesn't need it himself, and he wants to use it after installing it for others.
Thomas secretly prayed to Kurag to climb the cliff and then shoot the rope with an arrow himself, and everyone rejoiced.
The hermit in the clouds climbed somewhere on the cliff, where there was a faint flickering of cold light. "Can't pull it off!" he shouted down the hill.
"It takes a strong man to go up. Thomas said.
"Then you install a gear set!" Kulag replied at the bottom of the mountain, "The rope should be long enough, I'll pull it down the mountain!"
"Gear set ......" the gnome snorted, "do they really know how to use it?"
"It's very simple to eat and win, it's just a matter of living. Could it be that they are more effective than the gnomes with a lot of strange traps?" said Thomas, who glared at him in feigned annoyance.
"Hmph, if you want me to say you don't need to pull it out at all. Whatever it is, just blast it with gunpowder. ”
Hundred Flowers has climbed the cliff, and the gnome has cast a spell on Thomas after he has swallowed the spell material.
"Actually, asphalt and spiders taste good, don't you really want to try it?" said Thomas.
"No," replied the gnome more seriously, "to save spells." ”
After climbing to the top of the cliff, Thomas looked down, but there was no light and only a vague figure could be seen shaking.
The gnome cast advanced invisibility for the flowers, and she crept up to the hermit in the clouds who was climbing the cliff and tinkling gears towards the stone wall.
It is not possible to use tricks to illuminate it now, it will attract the attention of the enemy. Thomas tried to aim, but it was always hard to see.
Suddenly, the hermit in the clouds shook and climbed the rock and kicked into the air. Then in the eyes of the bear people, he fell off the cliff and fell into a pool.
With the exclamations of the enemy, the figure of Baihua appeared in the original position of the hermit in the clouds, and then crawled upward.
Thomas rushed over, and Baihua said in the psychic link: "There's a greatsword stuck in the stone wall, but I can't pull it off. ”
"If you can't pull it out, you can ram it inward, we don't need to use our two-handed greatsword anyway!" Thomas replied calmly, shooting the bright arrow downward, illuminating it before attacking.
The barbarians at the foot of the mountain shielded themselves with tower shields, and cursed loudly for his shameless deeds, demanding that he go down and fight to the death.
The Ranger and the Cat Ninja didn't care, and the gnome was moved to throw the powder packets and Molotov cocktails downward.
"It's strange why they still refuse to go. The dwarf said, "Is that sword really important?"
The barbarians, who had been passively beaten, held on for a while, and were about to disperse, when they suddenly let out a burst of exclamation.
"Listening to their shouts, is it even the shaman who has arrived?" Thomas was startled, if he was full of energy during the day, he would naturally kill the shaman with all his might. In this situation, I am afraid that I will have to fight hard to escape.
"Enough!" an old man's angry voice scolded: "You are not qualified to take this sword, give me all the honesty and go back to the camp!"
"What is this?" Thomas looked down in confusion and saw an old man wearing a bear's skin and holding a stick, accompanied by a translucent white bear. Under his reprimand, the bear warrior reluctantly retreated.
"That's a spirit beast? Broken, the crystal that restrained the undead doesn't seem to be effective against that......"
The spirit bear dissipated into the air, and the old man walked out of thin air step by step as if he was stepping on steps.
"Don't do it," Baihua sent a psychic link: "He has no malice." ”
Coming to Thomas, the old man imitated the clumsy salute of the southern civilization, and Thomas hurriedly returned the salute.
"I am Resric, the current shaman of the Bear Clan. The heroic spirits of my ancestors appeared to me in a dream and asked me to save the lives of my people. ”
"That ancestor was an elder and shaman of the bear clan long ago. More than 200 years ago, under the guidance of our lord Tambos, he went to Kudaha to seek your help. ”
Tampos is the barbarian's name for Tampas, the god of war, and Mina has repeatedly told her to be careful not to make a mistake when talking to them.
"What? I've never been to Kudaha, let alone two hundred years ago, and I'm not that old. You're looking for the wrong person, right?"
"No, he says your appearance has changed a lot, but your soul is still the same as before, and he knows you. You are the hero who saved the Ten Towns and our people. But the long hours and the deception of the swindlers have made my people forget your heroic deeds, and even more so their loyalty to Tampos, and they have thrown themselves into fear to the goddess of winter. Now I beseech you to bring them back to the right path from their strays once again, and to save us and the Ten Towns once again. ”
"Are you alright?" said Thomas, "and now that they have been converted, aren't you having a hard time?"
Reslick smiled and didn't answer, he turned back and walked to the middle of the cliff, drew his greatsword, and respectfully handed it to Thomas.
The Ranger had to get down on one knee and take the sword with the same respect.
It was a simple barbarian sword.
[Wandering Sky +3]
Two-handed greatsword
The legend of "Wandering the Skies" is a story about home, which is told by many sages of the Northlands. This story is about the perseverance and strength in the spirit of the barbarians.
When Archmage Arakon's legions swept through Icewind Dale, the Bears were the first tribe to take on it. The barbarians were numerically inferior but still fought valiantly, but they were still no match for the forces of Arakon.
One of the tribe's oldest hunters and warriors, Horega was knocked unconscious in battle, and when he awoke, the sky shone on his face and the corpses of his companions surrounded him. His wife and children were nowhere to be found, and not a word was left behind. So Horrega took up his greatsword and followed the route of the Elrakon forces, determined to recover them and avenge the dead.
When the barbarian priest Jaruo united the tribes against Arakon, Horrega was one of the first to respond, and he fought hard in this great battle, even against the armies of the undead and monsters summoned by the archmage. In every battle, Horega became one with his greatsword, roaring like the wind to crush his enemies and lead them to their deaths. But when Arakhon was finally defeated, Horega's wife and children were nowhere to be found.
Horega continues his search, and is said to have crossed the cliffs of the glacier during the "Spear Falling Season" during his years of journey, sailed with the whale tribe against slave owners from the south in the Ice Shifting Sea, and ended the story with his journey to the stronghold of Enhong, where he joined the defenders against the army of the black wolf Cressorek. Horegar is said to have fought so valiantly that even Cressorek backed away as a sign of respect for him - but that was after the fatal blow was delivered to Horega.
It is said that Horega was bleeding from multiple wounds and traveled north from Enhong's stronghold before collapsing after walking for several miles. The veteran warrior used the last of his strength to plunge his sword into the ice and said that he had finally found what he had been looking for. "Let the skies wander," he declared, "for my journey is over." ”
When the inhabitants of Enhong's stronghold returned the next day to look for him, they found Horegara's body, but his sword was gone. Since then, his sword has drifted through the skies, searching for those who have a long journey ahead...... And guide them to their final destination, wherever it may be.
