Chapter 22: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain
87_87057 After running for a while, the three of them found that although the running speed of ordinary fishmen was much faster than that of humans, it was slightly slower than their escape speed, which was still due to Barrian's oil bottle. ââ
Discovering this, Bai Qi, who was in a calm state of the heart of a warrior, his brain spun rapidly, listening to the dense howl of the fishman behind him, a bold and crazy thought appeared in his heart.
Bai Qi carefully analyzed this idea, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt.
He suddenly spoke: "Adrian, you use stealth to avoid this group of fishmen who are chasing us, and sneak back to the fish-man water village to have a look, and Barry and I will attract this group of fishmen to run as far away as possible." â
When Adrian and Barian first heard Bai Qi's words, they immediately thought he was crazy, but when they thought about it, this was indeed a good opportunity to turn the tiger away.
This made Adrian suddenly excited.
Bai Qi said again: "Be careful when you go back, in addition to the leader of the fishmen who chased us just now is a Chosen Warrior, there is also an old shaman in the water village, I suspect that he cast a spell to find us out." â
Adrian said, "Don't worry, dealing with legal professionals is exactly what we Dark Walkers specialize in. â
With that, Adrian changed direction and broke away from the group.
After Adrian left, Bai Qi picked up Barrian, ran wildly, and opened a distance of dozens of meters from the fish-man pursuers behind him before he stopped and put down Barrian.
Barrian landed on his feet and flipped his hand to pull out a spell scroll from the storage space, activating the spell effect of the scroll without hesitation.
"Oiling the soles of the feet" can greatly increase the running speed of the recipient.
This is a very practical first-level spell, a must for low-level mages to escape, but because of the needs of today's battle, Barian did not memorize this spell, however, this kind of practical spell, every low-level mage will prepare several scrolls just in case.
After casting the spell of oil on the soles of his feet, Barrian's running speed suddenly nearly doubled, and even half a point faster than Bai Qi's running.
In order to avoid escaping along the river bank and encountering other fish-man tribes, Bai Qi pulled Barian to adjust his direction and fled towards the steppe in the east.
The base duration of the spell is 5 minutes at lv1 level, and the duration increases by 1 minute for each level of the spell.
Barian prepares the Anointing Spell Scroll on the soles of his feet, which is as high as lv12, which not only has an amazing acceleration effect, but also lasts up to 17 minutes.
Scroll copying is the most expensive support skill in the space, there is no one, most of the people who can master this support skill are high-level mages in large teams, so the various spell scrolls sold on the market are of high level, not that Barian can buy high-level spell scrolls.
Half an hour later, Bai Qi and the two dragged a large group of fishmen behind them, ran out of the forest, and came to the northern prairie.
At this time, not only was Barian tired like a dog, but even the fish-men chasing behind them were dragged into a long procession without a tail, and from time to time some fish-men stopped, sat on the ground, and gave up the chase.
Although blessed with the spell "Anointing Oil on the Soles of the Feet", Barrian's physique cannot be compared to that of a warrior after all.
Just when Bai Qi was a little worried about Barrian, who was dragging himself like sweat and wheezing like a bellows, he suddenly received a communication request from Adrian.
Bai Qi opened the team communication function in the character panel, and a translucent light curtain appeared in his field of vision, and Adrian's face appeared in the light curtain.
He didn't even have to listen to what the other party had to say, just by looking at the excitement on her face, he knew that he would definitely succeed.
Adrian said: "You guessed it right, the fish-people in the fish-man water village almost poured out of the nest, leaving only some old and weak and the old fish-man shaman. â
"The leader of the fishmen you shot has also returned to his lair, and the old shaman is treating him. While the old shaman was concentrating on casting spells, a set of combos killed him, and the seriously injured fish-man leader was killed by me almost without any resistance after the old shaman took out two javelins, and he was bleeding profusely, very weak, and almost without resistance. â
"The old shaman and the fish-man leader both came up with a light blue card. In the old shaman's hut I found a melon-sized super saro pearl and a box full of pearls, of which there were six oversized saros over five centimeters in diameter, more than 100 smaller saras, and half a full box of other kinds of pearls. The wooden fork that the old shaman held in his hand was also tied to a super-large pearl with a diameter of more than five centimeters. â
"Although these things can't be taken out of this world, in this world, they are out-and-out hard currency, and I estimate that the sum of these things alone is enough for us to order more than one large merchant ship in Leoni City."
After Adrian finished chattering, Bai Qi said: "Okay, let's talk about the loot when we are safe, Barian is almost tired, I will turn back and run north along the border between the forest and the grassland, you approach us from the forest, and I will let Barian use the speed scroll to speed up and escape into the forest, and you are responsible for picking him up." â
Listening to Bai Qi's words, Adrian put away the excitement on his face, agreed, and turned off the communication.
Barian also saw the conversation between the two on the side, and without Bai Qi's command, he turned over his hand and took out a body elixir and poured it on his head, and after a while, the tired color faded a lot.
The two of them accelerated at the same time, circled around the grassland, and ran wildly towards the north against the forest.
More than ten minutes later, receiving a report that Adrian was already in place, Barian poured another bottle of body lĂŹ potion, let go of his speed, abandoned Bai Qi, and ran forward.
In fact, whether it was Barrian, who used the oiling scroll on the soles of his feet, or Bai Qi, whose strength and agility attributes were much higher than those of the fishmen, they were able to shake off the fishmen behind them in a short period of time, and they deliberately lowered their speed in order to hold these fishmen back.
Barrian's speed suddenly galloped forward like a wild horse, quickly widening the distance between him and Bai Qi, and when the distance between the two sides reached a hundred meters, he plunged headlong into the forest not far away.
At this time, Bai Qi also adjusted his direction very cooperatively and ran towards the depths of the northern grassland.
A large number of fishmen who were not supported fell along the way, and there were only about sixty fishmen left behind Bai Qi at this time, but these more than sixty fishmen were undoubtedly the strongest guys in the tribe.
The fishmen chasing Bai Qi saw the two suddenly separate, and after a little hesitation, they separated more than a dozen from the more than sixty fishmen and turned around and chased into the forest, and the other fishmen still chased after Bai Qi.
It's no wonder that these fishmen hate Bai Qi so much, he didn't just run away this way, in order to provoke the fishmen behind him, Bai Qi would surprise the counter-charge every time he ran a distance, and attacked the pursuing fishmen with a throwing gun.
In order to save the power of qi and blood, Bai Qi did not dare to use the "strong throwing" skill, but with his strength at this time, even if he only used the war spear thrown by the steel core flow force method, it would be a fatal threat to these ordinary fishmen.
Moreover, Bai Qi's projectile distance was much farther than that of these ordinary fish-man warriors, and the fish-man warriors' counterattacks were all inserted into the ground more than ten meters away from him.
There were only six "Moridan's ribs" in Bai Qi's hand, but there were a large number of black fish bone spears captured from the killed fishmen in his storage space, although these bone spears could not be taken out of this world, but within this world, their power would not be reduced in the slightest.
This bone spear can even penetrate the dark blue armor on Bai Qi's body, piercing the scale armor of the fishman, just like wearing tofu.
After more than an hour of pursuit, there were already more than 20 fishmen killed and injured under Bai Qi's flying spear.
This is also the result of Bai Qi's deliberate restraint in order to avoid scaring off this group of fishmen.
Without the drag oil bottle Barrian, Bai Qi suddenly let go of his hands and feet, and frequently turned back to attack.
By the time the black fishbone spear in Bai Qi's storage space was consumed, and even the remaining four Moridan's ribs were thrown out by him, there were less than forty fishmen chasing after him.
Still throwing his gun bare, Bai Qi turned around and ran, dragging these fishmen around the grassland, and plunged into the forest again.
As soon as the thirty exhausted fishmen got into the forest, they saw Bai Qi, who was still desperately trying to escape just now, turn around and rush towards them.
This time, Bai Qi's counter-charge was not just to shoot a flying spear as before, he had already activated the "Burning" skill as he turned around, and a blood-red flame rose above him.
Bai Qi, who was in full swing, crashed into the crowd of fish like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, and the first fishman who was hit by his shield was even shot to death directly.
Bai Qi's blood and blood power that penetrated deep into the enemy group boiled, and he poured out without hesitation, and within a few seconds, he launched eight heavy attacks in a row, and with his superb martial arts, the eight fishmen were killed on the spot almost without resistance. Even the murderous fish-men were demoralized by this series of blows and became cowering.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bai Qi, who had already poured out all his qi and blood power, quickly retreated.
His retreat gave the fishmen the courage to pounce again, but what they didn't notice was that behind them, a figure silently appeared behind a fish-man at the end of the group, and cleanly pierced the fish-man's neck......
Bai Qi fought and retreated, roaring from time to time, attracting the attention of the fishmen.
Adrian's dark powers were exhausted, and as he stepped back, Barian stood up from behind a large tree, and in an obscure and mysterious spell, an arcane missile blew off the neck of one of the fishmen besieging Bai Qi.
It was only then that the fishmen discovered the danger from the rear.
When they looked back and saw the corpses of their companions strewn across the ground, the ferocious creatures, known for their fear of death, were finally frightened.
Barrian's powerful arcane missile was the last straw that broke the fish-man's back, and he watched as his companions were torn apart by the arcane missile without resistance, flesh and blood splattered, and the fishmen fled in all directions......
Bai Qi stopped Adrian and Barrian's pursuit attempts, allowing them to immediately begin recovering their divine powers and spell slots.
Compared to Darkwalkers and Mages, who only need a few minutes of prayer or meditation to restore their power or spell slots, it is much more difficult for warriors with strong endurance to recover their power of qi and blood.
Warriors need to replenish their nutrition and rest sufficiently before their bodies can naturally recover their consumed qi and blood
