According to the plan, the raid will be kicked off by Alyssa's arrows.

In view of the flexibility advantage of traveling lightly, Jude did not carry his short bow and quiver today, and he looked at the girl with some concern: "Or, it's better to change me?"

"No, I can do it!" Alyssa insisted on coming by herself, probably to show off her "mastery" archery skills.

"Don't worry, it doesn't matter if Alyssa misses. Lucius looked calm, "I'll rely on your spells to deal with my broodmother later, Jude, please." ”

"Okay. The boy reviewed the spells of the various damaging spells, and then nodded solemnly, "Leave it to me." ”

After confirming that everyone in the team was ready, Lucius motioned for action, and Alyssa took an arrow from her bow and began to aim.

Jude constantly makes benign psychological cues to himself, trying his best to relieve tension, so that his body and mind are adjusted to the best state of excitement and sharpness, and prepare for the upcoming battle.

Soon, the arrow flew away from the girl's bowstring and sliced through the air into the river, but surprisingly landed in the water, far from the target.

The arrow failed to hit any of the monitor lizards, but it alerted them. The cubs stopped playing, and both adults looked towards where the "Flower Blade" team was hiding.

Seeing this, the team members no longer hidden, and rushed towards the nest of monitor lizards.

Lucius rushed to the front as usual, making a feint at the monitor lizard's bromother, drawing its attention to one side so that Alyssa and Jude could approach from the back.

Cathy confronts the male lizard on the riverbank, and her rapier stabs the beast in the head with her rapid, but he nimbly dodges it. So the girl began to wrestle with the male lizard, looking for the right time to attack again.

Rowan held a giant sword and approached the two young lizards unhurriedly. Due to his armor, he tries to avoid fighting in shallow water, and is trying to drive the cubs to the opposite shore.

Alyssa, who had missed the arrow earlier, also put away her bow and arrow, drew her short sword and bravely charged towards the monitor lizard's brodgemother.

Seeing that his teammates were all performing their duties in their positions, Jude also hurriedly ran to his mother, adjusted to the right position, and began to cast damaging spells.

"Evo_falrem_acentus!" The boy unleashed his most commonly used arcane star projectile first, and the brilliant blue magic missile shot out with his gesture, dragging the shining streamer to hit the side of the broodmother, but it failed to break through the scale armor, only slightly interfering with her movements.

It seemed that the Mystic Starball was not powerful enough to harm the Monitor Lizard's mother, but Jude's earlier fears were fulfilled, and he continued to chant the lightning spell: "Evo_strine_fulm-nir!"

The body of the beast visibly paused in a flash of pale silver, but quickly pounced on Lucius again.

"Jude?" Alyssa on the side cast a puzzled look, as if curious why the boy's spell didn't work.

"Evo_falrem_flonomas!" Jude was a little anxious, and hurriedly cast a fire bomb spell again, throwing a small ball of blazing flame and smashing it on his mother-in-law, but it failed to ignite the slightest flame.

The scales of these monitor lizards were not only hard, but also insulating and heat-resistant, and the boy suddenly felt a pang of weakness. He had wanted to cast a strong wind blast, but he gave up on it, apparently the spell wouldn't have much effect on his mother-in-law.

What to do with the beast?Anxiety began to haunt Jude, a feeling he had experienced too many times in the last month and a half, far more than he had ever lived in the previous seventeen years combined.

"Jude?!" Alyssa also looked anxious, her brother was constantly dodging the attacks of the monitor lizard's bromother, and although Lucius was nimble, he couldn't hold it up forever.

Let's pause time for now, Jude thought, and took his pocket watch from his personal pocket. Flipping through the shell, the time is shown as 1:14 p.m.

Without much thought, the boy decisively pressed the button.

However, the illusory bell did not ring, the world around it did not become gray and silent, and everything continued to function normally.

Jude suddenly remembered that he had already used his pocket watch when he was chasing the thief yesterday, and it was about three o'clock in the afternoon, and the magical magic item had not yet returned to a usable state.

Although the gift given by Teacher Stanxiu is magical, it is not unlimited, and the boy inadvertently ignores this. And the fatal thing is that he made such a mistake that he should not have made at such a critical juncture.

"Jude, hurry up?" Alyssa still called out to the boy, expecting him to use a miracle of magic to kill the beast.

"Wait," Jude panicked, putting away his pocket watch, his mind blank and barely able to think, "Let me think." ”

Cathy was still struggling with the male lizard, and Rowan had already cut the lizards in two and crossed the shallow water to the shore to join the siege of the monitor lizard's bromother.

The giant beast chased Lucius and turned around, just in time to see the mutilated corpses of two young lizards on the other side. Seeing her child slaughtered by these humans, the mother of the monitor lizard became enraged, and she took a deep breath, then exhaled a scorching flame.

Lucius reacted and immediately rolled on the spot, barely dodging the flames of the phage. Crawling up on the other side, the young man took the opportunity to slash the long sword in his hand at the back of his mother-in-law, but was bounced away by the hard scales.

Jude could feel the heat of the flames from all this distance, and at the same time, he noticed a strange thing:

Rowan somehow suddenly seemed to be a different person, his steps were messy and he stepped back, his face was extremely bad, and he kept whispering in his mouth: "Dragon...... Dragon ......"

The body hurriedly retreated uncontrollably, and in the scorching firelight, Rowan vaguely saw the terrifying black beast.

His mind couldn't help but be pulled back to that night many years ago.

It was a quiet autumn night, and they were ordered to investigate the activities of the Dragon Worshippers. Lord Eric, the knight, led them, and the party camped at the foot of the mountain.

He was sharing his military career with the recruits when suddenly a deafening, low roar came from the mountains. The roar had an inexplicable deterrent power, and the battle-hardened Rowan was instantly frightened to the point that his muscles were stiff and unable to move, and the recruits on the side even peed his pants directly.

Immediately after, the massive black body appeared in the sky, its outstretched wings obscuring the moon and the stars, casting a dark shadow.

Then the camp burst into flames. He saw the fire, the blazing, scorching fire. The tents were burning, the grass was burning, and the frightened horses were neighing and running......

The soldiers burned, the knights burned, their terrible wails, their armor and faith useless, everything burning in the shadow of its wings.

Rowan was able to flee into the mountains, and if he stayed in the camp, he would have turned to ashes, and he had to flee.

It's not a sergeant's duty, it's a battle with no chance of winning.

No, this is not a battle at all, this is a catastrophe, a catastrophe that will come suddenly.

He saw the fire, the blazing, blazing fire.
