Xu Mo was already very close to the lake, and he took a momentary step, and with just a few flashes, he stepped into the knee-deep lake. When everyone saw that Xu Mo was safe and sound, they swam to the depths of the lake one after another, but Luo Ning looked at the dwarves who fled in panic in a daze, still standing in place and refusing to move.

Xu Mo sighed secretly when he saw this, the situation he expected had happened. Demented Elmira aside, Wen Resa is the elf of Quel'Thalas, and Xu Mo has heard that the high elves of Silvermoon City will no longer be loyal to the alliance at this alliance council. The reason is that the border forest of the Tirisfal Glade was burned by the orcs due to the war between humans and orcs in the Second War.

The upper echelons of the Alliance angrily reminded these arrogant elves that without the millions of brave human warriors who gave their lives, Quel'Salas was now gone. Despite this, the arrogant elves chose to break away from the Alliance, and they would no longer assist anyone else in the battle except for the Mage Council of Dalaran.

From this point, it can be seen that the High Elves do not care about the life and death of other races in the Lordaeron Continent. Although Wen Leisha is a simple-minded elf girl, she probably won't risk her life to rescue these dwarven miners who have never known her life.

As for the beautiful knight Bridt, she is accustomed to seeing life and death in the plague land, and has no compassion. She might be willing to risk her life if it was to complete a mission or save her comrades, but how many dwarven miners? Forget it.

The only person who really cares about the life and death of these dwarven miners is the mage nerd Luo Ning. Although they haven't been together for a long time, Luo Ning's temperament and temper, except for Emira, basically everyone in the team knows a little. This is a good-hearted good man, and this good man has another big problem, that is, stubbornness.

Stubbornness is a well-meaning statement, and to say that it is ugly is bigotry. Don't look at Luo Ning's usual submissive, typical virtue of being gassed. Once he starts a temper and wants to drill the horns, it is really nine cows that can't pull it back, which is also a common problem of most geniuses or nerds.

The magical accident that caused the death of his companion is still haunted by his own thoughts, immersed in self-blame. Otherwise, with his wisdom, how could he not see that this reconnaissance mission, for him, was actually a mission to die. Even so, Ronin still chose to accept the task, and his paranoia can be seen from this.

Seeing that Luo Ning was still moving, the three people who had already swam to the depths of the lake had to return again. Bridget and Wen Leisa Bingxue are smart, and after a little thought, they understand what Luo Ning is thinking. Wen Leisha turned her head in reluctance, although she also sympathized with those dwarves, but she would not risk her life for these dwarves who wanted to mine and die.

Bridget's eyes flashed with a cold light, looked at Xu Mo, raised her palm knife, and made a downward gesture. Xu Mo shook his head, it was definitely not a good choice to stun Luo Ning now, and when he woke up, the team would probably disperse.

Britst was born as a knight and was used to the tough style of the army, but she failed to take into account that Ronin was not a soldier. No matter how cowardly Luo Ning is, he has his own principles, and he can accept everyone's arrangements for reconnaissance missions, but in the principle of being a human being, it is absolutely impossible for him to accept the control of others.

Xu Mo waded over to Luo Ning and said solemnly, "I know you want to save these dwarves, but you have also seen that the rock armor on the Dreadclaw Stone's body can't even penetrate my magic cannon, let alone the toothpicks and pedicure knives of the two ladies. Unless your magic can destroy or trap them, there's nothing we can do about the dwarves. ”

"Hey, my bow (axe) is not a toothpick (pedicure knife), okay!" Winresa and Brigitte retorted angrily at the same time.

"I know! I should have rushed up before! Luo Ning smiled bitterly, "Maybe it's because of that accident that I've become timid now!" ”

"No, you've matured and taken care of your companion's safety!" Xu Mo patted Luo Ning's shoulder and comforted.

"Actually, I do have an earth-based quicksand magic that can trap the Dreadclaw Stone, but the chanting of this magic is complicated, and someone needs to help me delay some time!" Luo Ning secretly looked at everyone's expressions and muttered, "But with your ability, it is estimated that you can't even delay the Dreadclaw Stone, so forget it." ”

Knowing that we can't delay, why do you still say it? Xu Mo cursed in his heart, and began to re-evaluate the evaluation of the mage, this nerd didn't look so stupid, and he actually used the radical method for them.

"If you want us to help, just say it!" Winnesa gave the mage an angry look and re-unloaded the bow from her back.

"That'...... What about Bridget? Xu Mo looked at the beautiful knight with a bitter face, hoping that she would speak out against this risky plan.

"I've long seen these two big bugs unpleasant. Let's go and let's shell them, bake them and eat them! Bridget raised her eyebrows, said proudly, and took the lead towards the shore of the lake.

"Oh......" Xu Mo wailed, and had to follow the crowd back to the shore in frustration.

……

"Boom!" A long arrow wrapped in emerald green fighting qi drew a wonderful arc in the air, screaming like a long green rainbow, accurately striking the dreadclaw stone monster's large scythe. The long arrow exploded into a cloud of powder in an instant, and the powerful power contained in the emerald green fighting qi made the front feet of the dreadclaw stone monster deviate slightly, grazing Xu Mo's side and falling into the air.

"Hey!" The knight on the left side of the Dreadclaw Stone Monster let out a coquettish cry and jumped high, the steel shield clenched with both hands shining with white divine fighting energy, and smashed the front foot of the other scythe of the Dreadclaw Stone Monster, relieving Xu Mo of the danger of slashing. With the tremendous power of the Golf's forefeet, Bridget did a backflip in the air, landed and rolled again, away from the Dreadclaw Stone, and gasped violently.

The help of the two companions finally relieved Xu Mo, who had seduced the Dreadclaw Stone, and his short body burrowed into the lower abdomen of the Dreadclaw Stone, and a cold light flashed on the Nightmare of St. Cice, leaving a deep knife mark on the Dreadclaw's huge belly. Judging from the criss-crossing knife marks on the abdomen of this dreadclaw stone monster, it was not the first time Xu Mo had done this.

However, compared to the previous times, this time Xu Mo not only scratched a large number of stone chips, but also hung a string of green blood on the sharp tip of the Nightmare of San Cice. Obviously, Xu Mo's persistent stabbing attack was not without effect, and finally caused damage to the abdomen of the Dreadclaw Stone Monster.

The dreadclaw stone turned around in a rage, raising a pair of scythe forefeet and slashing at the pesky ants that kept swirling beneath them. And at this time, the elven ranger and the beautiful knight were also ready to help Xu Mo block the knife again, so that he could smoothly avoid the unstoppable swift slash of the dreadclaw stone monster.

Xu Mo stepped on his right foot, forcibly changed the direction of his instantaneous steps again, and his body brought up a series of afterimages, dancing elegantly between the two knives of the dreadclaw stone monster. But he knew that he was almost at the limit, and the knees of his legs began to ache faintly, and the corner of his eye saw Brigitte, who was also exhausted and gritting her teeth, and it was estimated that Wen Lesa, who shot bursting arrows every time, was similar to them.

From the time they left the lake to now, it was only five or six minutes, and seeing the rescue of Xu Mo and the others, the dwarves were very wise not to gather together, and began to flee separately, luring away a dreadclaw stone monster.

The other Dreadclaw Stonecube was seduced by Wen Lesha's bow and arrow, and Xu Mo, who was the fastest, took it around in a circle, while the other two helped him block the knife and delay time, so that the mage could prepare his magic.

The dreadclaw stone's compound eyes have been blinded and turned into a one-eyed dragon, dripping green juice from it, which is the work of the Pea Cannon. The Dreadclaw Stonecube only circled around Xu Mo and ignored the other two, precisely because it hated the Stalker the most.

It's not that Xu Mo doesn't want to blind the two compound eyes of this dreadclaw stone monster, but in that case, the dreadclaw stone monster can only rely on hearing to find enemies, and it is difficult to be seduced by the coquettish Xu Mo again. Presumably, the target of the attack will be changed to Bridget, who is slow to move, and if it does, the combat team will collapse.

"Luo Ning, are you alright?" Even in the midst of the rapid dance, Xu Mo was still extremely calm. Out of the corner of his eye, he kept an eye on the movements of the other two, and as soon as Winresa or Brigitte couldn't support it, he would immediately use his smoke skill to get out of the fight.

Xu Mo would not entrust his life and death to others, if he really reached the end of the mountain, no matter how much benefit this task and Luo Ning could bring, he would choose to give up. According to his observations, Bridget is almost at the limit, at most she can help him block a knife, and then he can only rely on himself.

"Alright, Bridget, you get out of here. Cole, lure that Dreadclaw Stoneken to me! Luo Ning's voice came with the wind, making Xu Mo breathe a sigh of relief.

Seeing Xu Mo walking away from him with the dreadclaw stone monster, the beautiful knight sat on the ground, spit out her tongue without any image, and gasped for breath. Even though only a few minutes had passed, each of her shield blows had to condense the divine fighting energy of her whole body, which was even more tiring than the hours she had fought against the undead before.

Seeing Luo Ning standing on the shore of the lake from a distance, the big gem on the top of the staff in his hand shining with the brilliance of magic, with Xu Mo's calmness, he had an urge to burst into tears, and he was finally about to be freed!

Although the Dreadclaw Stonecube is extremely powerful and has a very high defense due to its thick rock armor, it also has a weakness that cannot be concealed, and that is that it is too heavy. Once you fall into the terrain of quicksand or swamps, you will definitely die, and you will never be able to climb out again.

The magic light shining on the staff became more and more intense, and finally when Xu Mo was only more than ten meters away from Luo Ning with the Dreadclaw Stone, the magic light ball broke away from the staff and shot down on the ground in front of Xu Mo and the Dreadclaw Stone.

The magic ball of light flashed with a brilliant light, and quickly spread out in the center of the falling point, and the ground nearby immediately underwent strange changes. Xu Mo was happy in his heart, and he increased his speed to the highest speed a little bit, wanting to get out of the dreadclaw stone monster while the quicksand was not yet fully formed.

It's just that his toes just touched the ground, and immediately he slipped, and his body lost his balance. Xu Mo was shocked, and his other foot landed to the ground trying to regain control of his center of gravity, but the result was also a slip. At this time, Xu Mo finally couldn't maintain his balance anymore, and fell to the ground with his feet facing the sky.

However, although Xu Mo fell, his body did not stop advancing, and slid forward sharply on the ground. Only then did he realize that the mud on the shore of the lake had not turned into quicksand, but had condensed a layer of ice that could not be slippery.

"Luo Ning~~~!" The shores of Lake Locke resounded with the angry roar of a stalker.
