Chapter 18: The Final Test I
The sun slowly rose, and when it was close to noon, the two stopped, and when they arrived, the forest in front of them was already different from the forest behind them, the trees on the periphery of the quiet forest were slightly "hideous" compared to the trees in the core of the forest, and the color of the branches and leaves was darker, looking a little less vibrant, a little more eerie.
"It's already the outskirts of the forest. ”
Dia stared into the distance and said, "That's right, it's not far from walking out of the forest when you get here." ”
"It's not normal. Claire said pointedly.
"It's a little abnormal, since the west side of the canyon, the road has been a little too quiet. ”
In Dia's mind, it was already a big deal for them to be able to walk all the way to the canyon on the west side, not to mention that they crossed the canyon and came to the junction between the core and the periphery of the forest, as if the sister had given up on stopping him and let him leave the forest.
No, from what I know about my sister, she will never give up like this, she must be planning something, maybe this is the quiet before the storm...... Dia thought.
"Be careful, there's movement there. Claire hitched an arrow.
- Whoa!
A deafening roar sounded from the dense forest ahead, startling a large number of birds in the forest to scatter in all directions, Claire's slender elf ears moved slightly, and said with certainty: "It's a owl bear, there are two of them." ”
Hearing Claire's words, Dia not only didn't have any nervousness, but also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, yes, this is normal, the hanging arrow is the most terrifying, you finally made a move Leah, then let me see if your first arrow can force me back.
I'm going to blow your mind.
"Wait, there's an enemy on that side, too. Claire frowned, listened attentively, and soon he judged, "It's the Gnolls, and the number should be eight." ”
Dia glanced at him in surprise, worthy of a traveler who had traveled half a continent and crossed the plane alone, and could judge the specific type and number of monsters just by his voice.
Before the monster arrived, Claire explained.
"Owls are very skilled in grappling, remember not to engage them in close combat, once they are caught, it will be difficult for even creatures with greater strength to escape, and watch out for their vertiginous screams, and do everything you can to stop them when you see them open their mouths. “
"Owls are physically powerful, equivalent to human beings, but they don't move fast, you just need to find a way to attract their attention, drag it for a while, and I'll take care of the rest. With that, Claire let go of her hand, the arrow was off the string, and soon the sound of the death of the jackal sounded in the dense forest.
Dia glanced at him, are you underestimating me? Don't judge people by their appearance, friend, Bendruid is a Nefarem who is both cute and powerful, and he is by no means as weak as you think.
Soon the owls appeared in his field of vision, they were about the size of a chimpanzee, their muscles bulging high, and they knew at a glance that they were of extraordinary strength, and they rushed towards them with a fierce howl.
"So, let's get started. With a whisper, Dia chanted a spell, starting with a powerful wall of smoke, which was cast at a very high level, and as soon as the owl stepped on his front foot, the wall of smoke appeared in front of them, and he arched into it.
The wall of smoke after the spell is strong is a 6X6 yard square area, and the magic effect is also more powerful, don't think of a creature whose basic physique does not meet the transcendent standard, 20 points of physique is extraordinary, taking the green dragon with medium strength in the five-colored dragon as an example, the adult green dragon can reach the transcendental physique, the red dragon and the blue dragon in the upper position should be a little earlier, and the black dragon and white dragon should be a little later.
The physique of the owl bear must not be so high, it is only around 16 o'clock, no, the two owl bears have been in for a while, and they haven't run out yet.
Diashi Shiran activated the bear man transformation and walked into the wall of smoke like a leisurely stroll, he was naturally not afraid of the negative effects of the wall of smoke with his extraordinary physique, not to mention that he also had weak magic resistance.
When they came to the two owl bears, they looked very miserable, and they collapsed to the ground limply, covered with filth, and completely lost their vigor just now.
Vomit!... Vomit!......
They were still vomiting, and they were vomiting so much that it was as if they would not give up until they threw up their prostate.
Seeing their miserable appearance, Dia was a little unbearable.
"Goo, goo, goo. (Forget it, you guys go, don't come again.) )
Owls are not creatures of the evil camp, they are just short-tempered, but their nature is not bad, after receiving the favor of humans, the owls will take the initiative to help humans expel the wild boar people and other creatures that plague the farm, and even the domesticated owls can be used as guardians and keepers and take care of children.
The two owls looked at him with a very resentful look, and crawled slowly back into the forest like turtles, and they whimpered weakly as they crawled.
"Whew. (Uncomfortable crying: I've vomited all the food I've eaten lately.) )
"Whew. (I had known that this would happen, and I would rather be beaten by the high priest than come.) )
Seeing the departing backs of the two owl bears, Dia nodded, the first battle was perfect, the master is the master, much stronger than the battle of moving bricks and dicks, for the problem that can be solved by opening his mouth and raising his hand, the warrior often has to pick up the sword and stab him for three hundred rounds, and afterwards he has to sweat uncomfortably.
Therefore, melee combat is all salted fish, and you still have to cast spells to keep you safe.
At this time, the battle on the other side was also over, and for the eight weak chicken jackals, Claire didn't need the ninth arrow to destroy them all, and when he turned his head to look at Dia, his eyes were about to pop out.
He ended the fight before me? And he was a stronger owl before?Eh, where did those two owls go, hey, how did it go, and look at their appearance, this is ......
Silently watching the wall of smoke dissipate, Claire asked.
"Magic skills?"
Dia nodded.
Claire was silent for a moment.
"Trainee druid?"
Dia nodded again.
Claire was silent for a few more moments.
"Trainee druids know how to use magic?"
Dia looked at him innocently, I just could do what I could do.
Claire took a deep breath and put this ridiculous fact behind her for a moment.
"Don't be careless, I don't think it's that simple. ”
Dia nodded in agreement, just this little enemy, he alone can solve all of them, this seems more like a temptation, or an appetizer, and there must be more difficult guys waiting for him later, this is just the beginning.
"I see what you mean, sister, is this a test? ”
Not far away, Leah, who was in a state of advanced stealth, nodded lightly and looked at him with a slight complication.
If you pass, you can go out as you wish, and if you fail, you will honestly go home and wait to inherit the family business.
But so far, you've really given me a lot of surprises, is the spell powerful...... I haven't mastered it yet, and how did you learn it, and I can't understand you anymore.
