The hot water vapor comes to the face, moisturizing the skin and condensing into droplets on the forehead, cheeks, and sideburns. The water droplets converge into a stream and slowly flow down the neck.

The clothes inside the leather armor had long been soaked, clinging tightly to the body, turning into a kind of restraint, making Barrett feel unspeakably uncomfortable. He felt like a firefly caught in a cobweb, and no matter how much he struggled, the restraint still clinged to him.

The sultry sensation made him feel a little nostalgic for the cold of the Misty Forest.

Neither hot nor cold is good, and if I was like the mage, I would know how to use that spell called 'Endure the Environment', and Barrett has added a new thing to the item he wants - a magical accessory that can unleash 'Endure the Environment'.

Just being in such a humid and hot environment can be painful. If there's anything more painful than that, it's fighting in such an environment.

Barrett wiped the sweat from his forehead and pulled the Iron Bride from a corpse on the ground and thrust it back into her waist before she began to take a closer look at the monster he had struck.

The corpse is a creature more than a meter long, with a pair of wings, in the shape of a half-human, half-bat. From time to time, a trace of steam came out of the fatal wound on the corpse's chest, and this was the monster that Sir Yarman needed to destroy, the 'Steam Demon Bat', a small heterotopic creature that appeared from nowhere.

They attack enemies with their fangs and claws, spew hot steam from their mouths, and fly back to the hot springs when they are wounded, relying on boiling water to heal their wounds. Not only that, but these little monsters are also able to create a torrential rain of boiling water in a small area through their spell-like abilities.

The scorching rain and steam aren't fatal, but they can still cause attrition. They were only clearing the first of five hot springs, where Sir Yarman's adventurous team eliminated 3 boiling water elementals and 18 steam bats, three of which had arrived from elsewhere after hearing the fighting.

Although this is a very good result, the team has also gone from 25 to 19 people.

Burton, a good Samaritan, a militiaman with a shield, and two militiamen with spears, all badly burned and unable to fight again, had withdrawn from the hot springs for treatment.

Burns and blisters were nothing, and one famous archer was even hit in the face by a "boiling water arrow" from the boiling water element, and the scene was so miserable that this unlucky guy couldn't even scream in pain, and his breath was like a gossamer, intermittent.

Fortunately, he did not let out that tearing scream, but fell silently in the battle, otherwise his miserable appearance would have distracted and frightened more militiamen, thus affecting morale and causing more serious attrition.

But what happened to this archer has really had a big impact on the morale of the team.

The coachman took the hapless man to Garano for treatment, but Barrett estimated that the man would not survive to-night. No, it's likely that you won't be able to survive on the road.

And others, including Barrett, were also burned to a greater or lesser extent. Barrett had been drenched in the 'hot rain' countless times, but fortunately, the water droplets had lost some of their heat as they fell, turning it from "hurting" to "causing pain", otherwise the whole team would have been wiped out in an instant after a few showers.

The battle was short and fierce, and the effort of a cup of tea was over. The well-organized army meets the chaotic stragglers, like the giant painting on the dome of the castle hall.

On their side, the knights and the militia with the large kite-shaped shields were in front, the spearmen in the back, the archers and hunters in the back, while the knights, the adventurers, and the strangely dressed militia captain were divided into two teams and guarded on either side of the ranks.

As for the Steam Demon Bat and the Boiling Water Elemental side, it's much simpler. They first stopped in place, looking at this group of uninvited guests who "invaded" their nest for some unknown reasons, and then after two demon bats were shot by bows and arrows, they swarmed up again, and let out bursts of angry screams from time to time, as if an innocent girl was soaking in a hot spring and found herself being peeped at by a wanderer......

However, this is not the right way to fight, Barrett frowned. It was a little funny for him to have such a tight offensive formation, they were there to destroy monsters, not two armies facing each other and fighting each other.

"What do you want?" asked Hannah.

The woman single-handedly eliminated a steam bat. The dagger slashed the bat's claws, the blade sliced through the wings of the opponent, then dodged the steam from the shaky one, and then stabbed into the monster's chest.

"Fighting. Barrett told the truth, "If this continues, you will not reach the big hot spring at the end, and you will all be scalded into tea sausages in the meat mixed soup." He looked at Hannah's neck, where there was a large patch of hot red, red from the neck to the jaw and the base of the ears, which stood out against the woman's fair skin.

In Barrett's understanding, appearance is often more important to a woman than life, but this woman did not complain about her injuries, nor did she leave the hot spring to seek treatment.

"What about you?" Hannah noticed Barrett's words. "Isn't there you in this pot of broth?"

"I, no matter what, I'm not going to be cooked like you guys. "Because I'm a ferocious wild boar, I can't help myself in such a fire.

Thinking of this, Barrett suddenly felt a little hungry, the two boiled eggs and a few slices of butter bread that he had eaten for breakfast seemed to have been consumed in the battle just now, but when he thought of the archer's face, he suddenly lost his appetite.

"If there's anything better you can do, tell that old stubborn. Hannah glanced hatefully at Sir Arman in the distance, and then looked at Barrett with some resentment, "I don't want you to be the only one left in the whole team, then you are too lonely, and I will be distressed." ”

Heh, you couldn't care about that then, Barrett thought to herself, because you were already hanging up by then.

"Will you feel sorry if I'm dead?" asked Hannah again, her tone soft and melodious, no longer as languid and charming as before.

You really know how to do magic!" Barrett sneered, "Now is not the time to talk about that. He fled.

"Alright, go ahead, I know you have some ideas you want to talk to that old stubborn. Hannah nudged Barritt, "I can tell that old stubborn still admires you, 'Caesar the Killer,' 'Barrett the Dragon Slayer,'......" she teased.

"Pseudo-dragon. Barrett corrected.

"Anyway, he should be able to listen to you. Hannah said, "For all of us." ”

Barrett then followed the advice of the Queen Bee and walked towards the Knight Lord Yarman, who was standing by the hot spring pool in the distance.

He didn't bypass the hunters and militiamen who were cleaning the battlefield and mending their knives, he patted Eddie, who was sighing as he looked at the corpse of the demon bat, and pushed away Brandon, the young man who was approaching him and seemed to want to say something, and walked to Sir Yarman's side amid the gaze of many people.

"What's the matter?" asked the Yarman Knight, expressionless, "I don't have mustard sausage for you here." ”

Was he joking? Should I laugh in agreement? Barrett wasn't sure, so he just got straight to the point, "If we attack like this, we might suffer a lot of casualties." ”

"yes, you're right. The Knight Lord nodded in agreement, and then shifted gear, "It would be nice if the people who came to support were more useful." He said without hesitation.

"What's the use of the people who come, no matter how powerful they are?" Barrett sneered, "If the first wolf in the pack is a fool, no matter how hard the whole pack tries, it will go hungry." "His current taunting skills are all due to the constant nurturing of his former dwarven companion.

The knight lord was not angry, but raised his head and looked at Barrett for a long time, "What? You, the wolf who killed five prey, also want to be the head wolf?"

It must be said that this knight lord seems to be particularly kind to those who are really capable, and Barrett repeatedly offended him, but he did not get angry because of it.

In this short battle, Barrett killed 5 steam bats alone, and also participated in the attack on the other four, and it can be said that nearly half of the casualties of the demon bats were related to him.

The Knight Lord and the Trainee Knight are both attacking the Boiling Water Elemental, and their weapons are enchanted weapons that can damage elemental creatures and interrupt the "Boiling Water Arrows" they are about to release, but there are still people who are injured by the Water Arrows and are dying.

"Not interested. Barrett said directly, "Just thinking about a little advice." ”

"What advice?"

"Change the way you fight. Barrett pointed to a steam bat on the ground, "Our opponents are these alien creatures, monsters who use magic and go to hot springs to recover from their injuries, not knights who charge on horseback. A well-organized array will not help in the battle, because we are the attackers. ”

"Without an array, how should spears and bows deal with monsters that pounce on them?" the Yarman knight scoffed, "Is it just like those monsters, fighting indiscriminately?"

"That's not what I meant. Barrett shook his head, "A farmer with a modicum of common sense wouldn't choose this way. ”

"Oh, so what do you have to do?"

Barrett looked at Sir Yarman and slowly spoke his thoughts, "It's simple, destroy them separately. ”

"Destroy separately?" the knight lord mused.

"The boiling water elemental will not leave the hot springs, but the steam demon bats will chase it out. Barrett explained, "Lure out those demon bats and kill them, little by little, and advance as you destroy them." I call this the way to attract monsters. ”
