Chapter 146: Joint College Assessment (7)
It was a man in a red magician's robe, with a face abruptly painted with heavy makeup that is usually painted by women, and the lips were even painted with bright lipstick, which at first glance looked like a woman, but looking at the figure and voice, it was obviously a man, and it was a tall man, which looked quite incongruous.
"Who are you, why are you hurting my baby, where are you, rotten bones, why don't you get out of here!" the man said in a sharp tone, squirming to the pit created by the magic explosion with somewhat contrived steps, and then with a wave of his hand, a black hedron the size of an egg flew from the pit to the man's hand.
Everyone couldn't tell the man's origin for a while, so they just took Rowling back slowly and watched the maverick man vigilantly.
"Mr. Noro, why are you here?" At this time, not far from everyone, a tall skeleton man suddenly walked out of the shadow of an abandoned house, the skeleton man was wearing a full set of armor, holding a sharp long sword in his hand, and a knight's shield in the other hand.
"High-tier skeleton warriors?" Caroline whispered to herself, everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard it, and the assessment manual that was handed out mentioned that about the characteristics of skeletons, such as necromantic creatures, there is a short paragraph that says that if it is a skeleton that has been immersed in the breath of death for a long time, and the body has strong willpower before death, there is a certain chance to grow into a high-level skeleton warrior, the most obvious feature of these skeleton warriors is that they have developed a sense of sanity, and know how to use armor to protect their bodies, of course, there should be no armor in this lost dark domain, and the armor on this skeleton warrior should be snatched。 However, the mere fact that he knows how to grab armor is enough to prove that this is a high-level necromantic creature that has developed intelligence.
"That's not good, but why didn't that guy just take the opportunity to attack us with the meat block?" Alan said in a low voice, although the two high-level necromancers may not be able to kill them all, but the skeleton warriors at least have a hidden advantage, if they attack while everyone's attention is on the meat block, it is very likely to seriously injure one of them, or even kill one directly.
"Is it because of Gehe, could it be that Gehe proposed to stay and take care of Rowling just to see that skeleton warrior?" So everyone thinks it's better to let Ge He do her own thing, she can decide the timing of her own shot, and this was the case just now, but obviously Ge He's decision not to shoot the meat piece has a deeper consideration.
I saw that the skeleton warrior glanced at Ge He cautiously, and then slowly walked towards the brightly dressed man.
"There's fresh blood on that skeleton. Richie whispered to Roland.
"It seems that the examiner in this area was killed by the two of them, or even the three of that strange man, so that man is likely to be a high-level powerhouse, and the situation is not good. Roland replied in a low voice, although everyone didn't use their hole cards in the battle just now, but after all, it was still a high-intensity battle, and it would be too risky to fight with two high-level powerhouses now, after all, this is the Lost Dark Domain, and everyone must always reserve some energy to prevent the attack of other necromantic creatures.
"Can Goh Hyuk make a move?" Roland asked Alan in a low voice, although Ge Hy usually acts according to orders in the team, but after all, he is still close to Caroline and Allen, so if there is something to ask for, the two of them will pass it on their behalf.
"Go-hyuk?" Alan asked, turning his head to Go-hyuk.
"Yes, that little bone is not a problem, but everyone should be careful of that man, he smells very ominous. Gohyuk frowned, pointing to the man who was impatiently waiting for the skeleton warrior.
"Everyone, Rowling's situation doesn't seem good. Chillis said suddenly, with some panic in her voice.
"Wasn't it a little better just now?" Roland immediately said worriedly.
Originally, after Richie controlled Rowling to sleep, Rowling's brows had been furrowed, although she was no longer hysterical, but obviously the effect of the meat block was still there, but after Rowling fell asleep and couldn't see the hideous appearance of the meat block, the situation became slightly better. And after the death of the piece of flesh, Rowling also seemed to feel something, and the originally frowning brows were loosened, but after the man in red appeared, Rowling's condition seemed to have worsened, and now Rowling's forehead continued to break out in cold sweat, and her hands waved unconsciously, as if she was entangled with some monster in a nightmare.
"Could this be the fear aura of a necromantic creature?" Lilith said, somewhat uncertain.
"Fear aura?" Alan asked, somewhat confused.
"Just as we paladins have an aura of courage, when others see our fighting stance, they can be inspired to fight more courageously, that is, through our heroic battles as a medium, magnifying the effect of the dance. In that case, could it be that the same thing is true for the piece of meat and the man?" Lilith explained to Alan, under normal circumstances, no one except the paladin would know about the skill of the aura of courage, after all, everyone would only think that they were inspired by the paladin's heroic fighting posture, and in fact, the effect of the aura was only amplified, not created out of nothing.
"Are you saying that the piece of meat that evokes fear in people's hearts with its disgusting gesture, and then amplifies it through the effect of the aura, will cause Rowling's disordered behavior?" Alan said as if he suddenly realized, although Rowling is a priest, the physique is weak, but she is also a very resolute girl, she has not given up when she was attacked in the forest, and even took her teammates to ask for help unrelentingly, and finally got out of trouble with the help of Allen, why is such a girl so easily controlled by fear, Alan has always been puzzled in this regard, and it is not until now that the truth is finally revealed, it seems that it should be the unique ability of the necromantic creature to amplify the fear in Rowling's heart, plus Rowling has been eroded by a strong dead air, and her resistance to fear has weakened, which finally led to Rowling's collapse。
"You guys don't chat, what should you do now?" Cialis said a little anxiously, and Roland held Rowling's hand tightly, hoping to appease Rowling, but Rowling's condition did not improve at all.
"Mom, Dad, Brother, I'm so scared, don't let them take me, save me, save me. Rowling unconsciously said sour dreams, and Roland kept calling out to Rowling anxiously, but Rowling still waved her arms unconsciously as if she hadn't heard, constantly struggling in nightmares.
"Staying away from the source of the fear aura should have an effect. Lilith suggested, looking at Rowling's appearance, Lilith also felt quite heartbroken, after all, she and Rowling are like sisters, and they have always supported each other in the Church of Light.
"Is that guy going to let us go?" Richie whispered, secretly pointing to the brightly dressed man, who was talking to the Skeleton Warrior as if he was cursing, but everyone had been moving away from the man, and the man's voice was no longer audible.
"You have to try, while that guy is talking to the skeleton, right now, let's go!" Roland immediately decided, inserted the rift into the scabbard, directly picked up Rowling, who was still dreaming, beckoned everyone to bow down, and quickly left by covering the man's sight through the abandoned house.
"Kah. Suddenly, Lilith stepped on the abandoned building materials, and the heavy armor and Lilith's weight directly crushed the wooden planks scattered on the ground, and a crisp cracking sound directly attracted the attention of the skeleton warrior and the man.
"Run!" Roland said briefly, everyone heard Roland's order and ran directly, although the situation was urgent, but everyone still maintained the basic queue state, let the slower Caroline and Cilis run in the front, Ge He and Roland who held Rowling in the middle, and Allen, Richie and Lilith, who were a little annoyed because of their mistakes, ran at the end.
"Who allowed you little mice?"
"Run!"
