Chapter 56: Reactive
"There!" the feathered angel pointed to two dark shadows.
Rex's mace was already heading at the Shadow, and his first reaction when he saw an enemy was always to attack, not ask.
"Watch out for his weapons, they're magical," the Feathered Angel warned from behind.
One of the black shadows raised the dagger, and the orange light instantly accumulated, and before Rex could rush in front of him, the dagger energy had already shot out quickly, flying to the center of the training room, a disk-shaped energy body.
"Stand back!" Tarrant had seen the energy body, and in Tinvort Mountain, he shouted at his teammates in panic.
Katrina was standing in the hallway of the room, and she looked at the energy body, "Well, is it ...... She had studied this energy structure in books, and now she was slightly glad to recognize it, completely unaware of the threat she was about to encounter.
The trigger range of the magic seal covers the entire room, and it detects that the storage of four enemies automatically detonates, and the disc transforms into a ripple of energy, and the thick energy wave attacks the will of the affected person within the range.
Tarrant's head suddenly ached, he didn't have time to hold his head, his consciousness was already disordered, and the remaining thoughts stuck to his last sobriety, and kept telling him: The will to judge!
Suddenly, another tired voice sounded: "Thieves who can cast the Shock Seal, you are no match at all, give up."
The voice of the will replied: Hold on, let the will come to its senses, and you can defeat him.
The tired voice continued: "Come on, the spell of raising your hand makes you unable to parry, and the other party is not something you can handle.
Tarrant looked up in confusion and looked at his teammates, Katrina had been instantly shocked by the impact of the French seal, she couldn't move in place, her mind had stopped, she stood obediently like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, Rex hung her mace, her face had no intention of fighting, and the feathered angel was lying on the ground, probably stunned.
The tired voice burst out laughing: Look, you're out of play, give up futile resistance and accept the arrangement of fate.
The will stubbornly retorted: Maxine does not accept the cowards who surrender, you must fight back!
Tarrant's finger nerves rebounded, Maxine's summons, faith in the energy that had been stored.
Burnout's voice became smaller: It's not your fault, the strength gap, Maxine can't blame you!
The will shouted: For the safety of all my teammates, I will continue to fight!
The will to judge quickly took effect, the voice of burniness died down, and Tarrant raised his greatsword.
A dark shadow pointed at Tarrant, "Teacher, and a strong-willed man!" His companion was a thief training instructor.
Another dark shadow said, "Then destroy the invaders and prove your strength to me", he entered the training room sideways, his figure melted into the darkness and disappeared, sneaking. The remaining black shadow flipped out the spirit pattern bag and took out a small artifact.
Tarrant took out his badge to activate True Vision, and the effect of Night Vision was still there, and he could clearly see the Rogue Instructor who had entered the stealth state, and the thieves went straight to Katrina, intending to eliminate the mage who was in the stunned state.
The greatsword struck quickly, stabbing the thief in the back, the thief was keenly aware of Tarrant's attack, turned over to cut off the attack, he saw the magic energy converging above Tarrant's head, and could only deal with this warrior first.
Tarrant swung his sword and shouted at Rex, "Rex, wake up!" He needed a teammate, otherwise the mage would still be in great danger.
Rex looked at Tarrant in confusion and muttered, "Why don't you go back to Andreas and get some sleep, I'm so tired." ”
He had already been affected by the French seal, and his mind was in extreme confusion, and he had no combat power, just like Tarrant just now.
The other thief drew his dagger and walked towards Tarrant, the others were no longer threatening, and killing Tarrant was a victory.
In desperation, Tarrant swung his sword with all his might, and the force pushed the scrambling thief back two steps, and he ran to Catharina's side, defending with his sword, one against two.
The two thieves were not in a hurry to attack, and stood around Tarrant, and the thief instructor asked the other, "Is it set up?"
The other replied with a smirk, "It's done." He swung his dagger and attacked.
Tarrant's greatsword swung left and right, his body turned sharply, and his body was consumed quickly, he understood that he would be hit sooner or later in this situation, there must be a breakthrough, the attack of the student on the left had no real threat, his swordsmanship was terrible, Tarrant decided to take advantage of the next defense to kill him first.
The student swung his sword again, Tarrant blocked the attack of the instructor on the other side and punched the student in the face with all his might, the thief fell to the ground on his back, the instructor's attack came back quickly, Tarrant could not further attack and kill the thief, he could only defend again, he took a step forward, and took advantage of the small opportunity to launch a multi-angle attack on the thief instructor.
Suddenly, Tarrant realized that he had stepped on something, a small pebble-sized object, he understood what the conversation between the two thieves just now meant, a thin arrow bounced out of the ground, Tarrant took a step back, the thin arrow flew straight up and nailed to the roof, the thief student was a trap maker, Tarrant had to be careful with every step he took.
The two thieves formed an encirclement offensive again, and in view of the punch just now, the attack became cautious and steady, only as his teacher's auxiliary attack, so that Tarrant had no chance to fight back, the giant sword in his hand gradually became heavy, and every turn took a lot of physical strength, and the amplitude and strength of Tarrant's swing began to decline, and he couldn't attack rashly under his feet, so he could only support it.
Behind the two thieves, a figure stood up, the Feathered Angel! He woke up just in time, and Tarrant saw hope, and his arm was re-instilled with the last of his strength.
The trap maker was forced to take a step back by Tarrant's blow, and there was a "click" sound under his feet, the trap maker was very familiar with this sound, every time he heard this sound, he felt comfortable, but at this moment, there should not be this sound under his feet, he hesitated to look down, a mechanism, the thin arrow pointed directly above, he exclaimed, "Ah!" The thin arrow went straight to his face, and the master saw a black eye, and his body fell to the ground like a sandbag.
The thief instructor took a step back and looked at his students in amazement, "This idiot can't even remember the location of his own mechanism!"
"Hahaha, you're wrong to blame him", the feathered angel patted the ash on his arm, "I did it." ”
"You?" the instructor looked at the Feather Angel, and he thought of one thing, since he would be stunned by the Shock Seal, it was impossible for him to wake up in such a short period of time, and the Feather Angel had recovered his will so quickly.
"Curious", the Feathered Angel smiled, "I'm an angel who is not affected by will spells. The coarse cloth covering his headband had been blown away by the explosion just now, and now it shone a charming azure blue.
"Haha, good, now it's my turn to be one-on-two", the thief instructor laughed and stepped back.
"You're wrong", Rex raised his macehead, "One against three", with the help of the blessing spell, his resistance was strengthened, and he got rid of the control of the law seal in advance.
The three of them surrounded the thieves, and he couldn't get out, and Tarrant asked loudly, "Are you the person in charge here?" Since he is an instructor, he is likely to be the highest administrator here.
The thief didn't answer, but retreated as he spoke, "I'm curious, who do you work for?" he leaned against the wall, his dagger constantly changing directions to guard against the trio's surprise attack.
"Work for the faith, that's not something you can understand!" Tarrant took a step closer, "Can you tell us what you know?"
"What do you want to hear?" the instructor's eyes wandered, but his face was calm.
"When is Patrick coming to Siant, and where!"
"Hahaha, it turned out that Yastin hired you", the instructor looked coldly at the three dark shadows in front of him, "You are standing in the wrong place, Yastin can't win, and you, too, will soon pay the price for your stupidity!"
Rex spat on the ground, "The Storm Goddess will forgive you for your ignorance and foolishness, after you die. ”
"Storm?" asked the instructor with a hint of surprise in his tone, as if the term should not be here at all, "You are from the Storm Knights?!" The candle in the room had long since been extinguished, and the faint light of the flame was not enough to read the badge of the visitor, and the instructor did not notice this.
"Should you be so surprised? no hidden evil can escape the punishment of the Storm Goddess!"
"I have one last question, what did Yastin promise you?
Tarrant said, "The fulfillment of justice will correct all the wrongs you have made. ”
The instructor posted it on the wall, "Cash, poor knights, the one who made the biggest mistake is Astin!"
"Enough talking, when is Patrick coming!" Tarrant returned to the question.
"Immediately, before you are ready, death will appear by your side, disappear with Astin", the instructor reached for the wall with his left hand, and suddenly, the wall behind him was sunken in, the secret door!
"There's a mechanism!" The three of them rushed to the secret door, it was too late, the instructor flashed in, the secret door quickly bounced back, and the feather angel stepped forward to push it open, but unfortunately the strength of the mechanism was much greater, and the secret door was hard against the feather angel to return to its original position.
This is too careless, no one has gone out from here for a day, and it should be expected that there is a secret passage here.
The mechanism is in the position where the instructor's left hand is grasping just now, Tarrant groped for that place, there was a brick that was not tightly built with other bricks, he pushed hard, the secret door was reopened, and a disgusting smell came to his face, it was the breath of the sewer, the next door to this training room was the sewer, they arranged it very cleverly, once they encountered an attack and escaped into the sewer, it was difficult for the tracker to catch them in the tunnels that extended in all directions.
Tarrant stepped into the sewers, and the echoing sound of running could be heard on the left, he must have run to the left, he turned around and shouted, "Fawkes, you come with me, Rex, protect Katrina, we meet in Andreas!"
The Feathered Angel is also familiar with the sewers, and it will be helpful for him to come along, and Rex can handle the rest of the scene, so protecting Catrina will not be a problem, and Tarrant will chase after him.
In the sewer, the two chased hundreds of meters in the dark along the left passage, the sound of running finally disappeared, the two separately looked for the nearby fork, but did not find that the huge maze of the sewer is all over the exit to the ground, and it is extremely difficult to chase after dozens of meters, Tarrant gave up tracking, the effect of true vision and night vision has disappeared, once the thieves sneak back to ambush them, Tarrant has almost no chance of winning.
They crept out into the street at the nearest passageway, a remote corner, where there were no passers-by, and the moon was so dark that the moon was so dark that it looked a little gloomy tonight.
Yutian wiped his nose with his index finger, "Unfortunately, the mission was not successful. ”
Not getting the news of Patlik, Tarrant waved his hand in frustration and forced a smile: "It's okay, thank you for your help." ”
"I didn't help much", the Feathered Angel put away his headband, the blue light it emitted in the middle of the night was eye-catching, "Go back." ”
"That's all there is to it", the two teammates who stayed in the stronghold should have returned, there was nothing more to do, Taran nodded his head to agree.
The two got into a carriage, and on the way back, Tarrant got off at the Andreas Hotel in the business district.
There were no candles placed in the aisle of the Andreas Hotel, in order to save money, which made the aisle like a sewer, those floors creaked when stepped on, in order not to alarm the other guests, Tarrant cautiously walked to the door of Rex's room, turned the doorknob slightly, the door opened a crack, there was no sound inside, there seemed to be no one.
Hasn't it come back yet?Tarrant's mood grew even heavier, there were only two of them left in the stronghold, if the Stalker turned back...... He took a step into the room, and there was no movement, damn it!Tarrant was about to turn when a figure suddenly grabbed him from behind the door......
