Chapter 56: The Death of the Attacker
The attacker's idea was good, once he entered the ranks of ordinary mercenaries, and some of the large-area destructive spells could no longer be used.
Without lethal magic, most of the other body-strengthening professions were no match for him, and only Todak could compete with him.
In the chaos, he may not have no chance of escaping.
It's a pity that he still underestimated Marianda and Donne, just when he turned around, Marianda immediately released the first-level magic greasy technique, and Don also shot the first-level magic secondary strong acid ball.
The attacker's feet were so greasy that he didn't need his strength at all, how could he escape?
In the face of the magician's field control magic, there are not many good ways for body strengthening professionals. Unless there is a big difference in attributes, such as his strength exceeds 20 points, he can violently break this spell.
Donn's second-class acid ball hit the attacker in the back, knocking him to the ground, and Bruce fired two more arrows.
Relying on long-range strikes, the attackers ran out of gas.
"Wait, I'm Charlop, you can't hurt me, or my brother Bazel will avenge me. The attacker lay on the ground, the fear of death finally overwhelming him, and he pleaded bitterly.
Hearing the attacker's words, Bruce immediately stopped, turned his head to look at Don, and asked him to make up his mind.
Don smiled contemptuously and fired an arrow from his one-handed crossbow, which landed directly at Charlopp's head and pierced his eyeball.
Your arrow hits your target in the head.
You deal critical damage, doubling your damage.
The target's health is reduced by 20 and the target's health is reset to zero.
In this battle, your contribution is 32% and you get 44 XP.
The target is three levels higher than you, and the XP is doubled.
You have gained 88 XP.
Finally, I heard the voice of the system again, and in the past two months, Don has completed a small task assigned by the system, and has gained 30 experience points.
In addition, there was no improvement, and although he had learned a lot of magic, his experience points had not increased at all.
This time, he gained 88 experience points, and his total experience was already 345 points, which is not far from being upgraded to a level 4 arcanist.
Don examined Charlopp's weapon carefully, shook his head at Todak, and said, "This is a poor ghost, and he doesn't have anything good on him. This chain hammer is not an enchanted item, but a fine weapon, which of you wants to use it?"
Jack looked at the crowd and saw that no one spoke, "I'll use a chain hammer, or give it to me." ”
Don tossed the hammer to Jack, then opened Charlop's purse and said, "Finally, there is a catch, this guy has 6 gold and 38 silver coins in his purse." I don't know why this guy chose to put gold coins in his money bag. ”
"This money may not be their own, Tiehuo, a mercenary group, has a very bad reputation, and often pretends to be robbers to eat black. As an old mercenary, Todak knew a little about the various mercenary groups, so he said.
"Regardless of him, this thing is now our trophy, first in the Marianda Space Bag, to serve as the team's public funds. Don said happily.
Several men hastily buried the two Charlopps, and then quickly left the battlefield.
They continued to travel during the night until dawn approached, when they found a camp and set up camp.
Don settles Marianda in and then lets Bruce take turns sentry before falling asleep.
After sleeping until the afternoon, everyone ate some dry food, and Don came directly to Alex and said, "How do you feel, what are your plans?"
"Luckily, Charlie, Lucian, they're dead. I alone can't keep the Lionheart Mercenary Group, can I bring someone to join you. Alex said, bowing his head.
The Lionheart Mercenary Regiment is a small to medium-sized mercenary group with only three classes and fifty mercenaries.
Their main job was to be employed by traders to keep their caravans safe. Without Charlie and Lucian, Alex alone could not compete with other mercenary groups.
The competition among mercenaries is very ruthless, and when their strength is weakened, their sphere of influence will soon be eroded by other mercenaries.
It was precisely because Alex saw this clearly that he made up his mind to defect to Don and them.
What's more, he was saved by Lucia, a normal person, there will always be some gratitude. Moreover, Donne's team is strong, and he is not under the iron fire Bazel, and only by joining such a team can he have a chance to defeat Bazel and others and avenge his friends.
Don They have money in their hands now, and they don't mind the professions taking refuge.
In addition, Alex was already a familiar person, and they saved his life, so Don immediately decided to accept Alex's defection.
"If you're willing to join us, that's certainly a good thing. But you are now injured and unfit to continue with the adventure below. Don said, staring into Alex's eyes.
The next battle will undoubtedly be very dangerous, and injured professionals such as Alex and Celtic will definitely be the first target of the opponent.
Their current professional level is not high, and it will definitely be difficult for them to survive once they face the enemy's concentrated fire strike.
So in order to protect them, and to reduce the burden on the others, they can only be allowed to return to the camp on the edge of the Horn Forest as soon as possible.
After all, they hadn't gone deep into the forest yet, and the danger they faced was not great, and they had a high chance of returning safely to the camp they had set out from.
"It just so happens that Celtic has also broken his arm, so the two of you will go back to the camp in the Horn Forest first, and assist Dietria and them in guarding the camp. Donn turned to look at Celt and continued.
Celtic was now injured, and the next battle couldn't help everyone, so he nodded happily and said, "It's okay, Alex and I will leave in a while." ”
"Be careful on your way, don't engage in useless battles, I will send five mercenaries to escort you. Donn said.
"We were hurt, but we were able to take care of ourselves. We are, after all, professionals, not ordinary people, and do not need valuable manpower to escort. Celtic waved his hand and refused.
"Listen to me, if you encounter a monster on the road, these mercenaries can also become your bait, so that you can save your life. Don whispered to Celtic's ear.
Donn's words were cruel, but they were very realistic.
For a team, the lives of professionals are far more valuable than ordinary people.
Keeping Celtic, even if he loses fifty mercenaries, Don will not frown.
After all, the mercenaries at the bottom are easy to replenish, and once they lose Celtic, Don and they will lose a qualified companion, a reassuring comrade-in-arms.
The Celts rested for a while, and under the watchful eyes of Donn, they helped each other out of the camp and walked into the depths of the forest.
They had a long journey back to the safety of the camp after three or four days.
There was very little monster activity on their way back, and if they didn't meet the professionals of the Iron Fire Mercenary Regiment, they should return to the camp safely.
"It's best to take a detour when you go back, away from where Charlopp died. Bazel may send out professionals to find his brother, so be vigilant and careful on your way. Tang En cautiously admonished.
