Chapter Eighty-Three: Pursuit in the Rain
The four men and two horses had been galloping in the heavy rain for about ten minutes.
The two horses they were riding, first pulling the cart and then exploding, were tired and frightened to the limit, and even with the blessing of magic, their breathing became heavier and heavier, and their speed gradually slowed down.
"You can't speed up like this anymore, in such a night, on such a muddy road, the horse is prone to stumbling. Roger said to Belea, who was about to whip the horse.
"But it's too slow! How far is it from the ambush point? If it's not too far, let's run over!" said Belea.
Roger shook his head, the burst of Dou Qi can certainly make the speed surpass the galloping horse in a short period of time, but it can't last, and too much Dou Qi consumption will also affect the combat effectiveness. If you abandon the horse too early, you will fall into a very embarrassing situation.
He looked up and saw that there were no obvious signs of the forest in the night, and it was really difficult to tell where he was at this time.
"Let's ride a horse first. I'll talk about it when there's movement later!" Xiao Chen said.
"It's already here. Belia glanced back.
Xiao Chen listened attentively, and the sound of drums was added to the wind and rain, which was endless, like a tidal wave coming from behind.
"Let's go!" Roger was no longer stingy with horsepower, and the whip was whipped on the horse without hesitation.
Everyone ran for a while, and at this time the sound of hooves was approaching, Xiao Chen turned around and released a heart of fear, originally in this dark environment, fear magic would have a better effect, but I saw the rider in front stretched out a hand, and a layer of silver brilliance flashed on it, as if releasing magic such as a spiritual shield.
"There's a magician!" shouted Tasia.
"They know I'm good at spiritual magic, so I should have come prepared, hmph, but I'm not empty-handed. ”
Xiao Chen took out a Earth Thorn Scroll from the space bag, ready to give the war horses behind him a ruthless blow.
"Are you using a scroll?" said Tasia, taken aback.
"What?" Xiao Chen asked strangely.
"How can an ordinary scroll be used on a rainy day, once the magic text painted on it is dissolved by water, the scroll will be destroyed. Tasia said.
"And this kind of thing??" Xiao Chen had never thought of such a question, he was shocked in his heart, and spread out the earth stabbing scroll in his hand, and sure enough, it had become unshapely, not much better than a child's graffiti.
"Don't use it, you'll be out of use if you release it! ”
Xiao Chen put the scroll away depressedly and asked, "Tasia." How did you reply?
"Huh, what do you want me to do?" Tasia was stunned.
"What type of magic are you good at?"
"Fireball, Wall of Fire, Firespear, and Firestorm. ”
Xiao Chen wiped the rain from his face with his hand and said, "Is there a spell suitable for use on a rainy day?"
"Lightning?"
"This ...... Next time I have time, I'll tell you a story about conductors. Xiao Chen scratched his ears and cheeks for a long time and asked, "You don't know that kind of negative magic, such as slowing down, weakness, confusion, and mental retardation...... Something like that?"
Xiao Chen said one, and Tasia shook her head once, and in the end, she couldn't help but say, "I'm not stupid, of course I know that it's best to use such a spell! I love smashing people with small fireballs on rainy days, right?"
With that, she began to unleash the fireball technique, and the basin-sized fireball flew from her hand into the enemy's formation, and its power had been diminished by the wind and rain. One of the opposing fighters slashed with a long sword full of fighting spirit, and the fireball disappeared.
Tasia released a few more spells, but they were all dissolved by the other party, and Xiao Chen released a few ice spear techniques, but this single magic was difficult to hit the other party when running. Even if they are about to hit the opponent, the leading mages and warriors will always find a way to deal with their attacks.
What should I do?" Xiao Chen looked back at the increasingly clear outlines of the people behind him and thought.
"It's a pity that my wall of fire technique can't be lit on such a wet ground, otherwise the two walls of fire will make them look good. Tasia said.
"On the ground?" Yes, the enemy can protect his body, but he can't protect the ground farther away. If you can turn the ground into a solid ice, it will be enough to cause them problems.
Xiao Chen doesn't know Luo Ling's kind of magic that freezes the ground, everyone has their own talent for different types of magic, not only is it slower to learn for categories that lack talent, but the release effect will be slightly worse, Xiao Chen's talent for ice magic is not outstanding, compared to spiritual magic, he needs more time to learn these spells, so he only learned two spells, ice spear and ice shield.
But the essence of cooling and freezing should be the same, except that the range of ice spear cooling is very small and concentrated.
Xiao Chen recalled the whole process of releasing the Ice Spear, which was a relatively simple magic spell consisting of two parts: freezing and firing. If I use a distracted state to cast multiple ice spear spells at the same time, will it cause the effect of freezing ground?
"My lord, they are getting closer, our horses have been pushed to the limit, and we are afraid that we will have to jump off now. There is also a magician in the back, and if we move more slowly, we may not be able to walk. Roger shouted from the front.
"Wait a minute, let me release another spell, if it succeeds, it should buy us more time!" Xiao Chen finished speaking, dividing his spirit into ten parts at the same time, each of which began to trace the magical structure of the ice spear technique in his divine sense. But he soon discovered that the structure of the Ice Spear was still too complicated for his slightest distraction, and while he could indeed do all ten spells at once, it would take many times as long.
No, I don't need the shape of a spear, and I don't need to shoot very far, I just need to be able to freeze the ground. Xiao Chen finally focused all his energy on the frozen part of the first half, gave up the general structure in the back, and finally completed this multiple casting.
Xiao Chen stretched out his hands, and ten cold qi rushed out from his fingers, sweeping the ground behind him, and the mud road mixed with mud and ponds instantly began to freeze into ice.
The horse was running in front, the ice road was extending behind, and when Xiao Chen released his magic power, a thirty-meter-long ice and snow road had already appeared in front of the pursuers.
The galloping horses didn't have time to stop, and rushed onto the ice, and the horses couldn't control their shapes, and fell out crookedly, seeing that several horses broke their legs and feet.
Webber was thrown out by the horse before he could cast the spell, but Raul jumped at him in time and grabbed his body. Most of the Assassins in the back were nimble, and except for a few who were injured in a few falls, everyone else landed safely. It's just that most of those war horses fell badly, even if the leg bones were not broken, and they couldn't continue to run after a fall.
As the Assassins unloaded their weapons and equipment from their horses and prepared to chase them on foot, the fleeing four threw them away.
