Half of the elves defended with the 'Mercenary's Heel', while nimbly resisting the retreat, while switching to the one-handed Frost Sorrow broadsword.

With his left hand, he quickly drew out the metal round shield, and after resisting two attacks from the front legs of the giant spider, he kicked hard with his back heel, and rushed forward reflexively.

'Shield Strike', there was a dull metal crash, and the half-elf holding the round shield actually hit the mouthparts in front of the giant spider.

The two fangs were broken, but after all, it was only a shield impact, and it didn't cause any significant damage.

However, several adventurers with blood spears in the vicinity surrounded them, and they also tentatively attacked the twilight giant spider with their weapons.

Covered in blood, Quiller stood up and regained his weapon, attacking from behind the giant spider with a one-handed axe despite the danger, and although it didn't hit the giant spider's body, it happened to hurt the hind leg of the other arthropod.

The tail gland of the twilight giant spider was injured, and it was unable to spray sticky cobwebs for a while, and the giant spider roared strangely, and the six long legs were high, and they quickly retreated to the tree.

The spider was nimble, and clinged to the giant web he had weaved, stabbing at the spinner gland behind itself with a long flexible arthropod.

The round half of the black body squeezed and twitched violently, and the orange butt gland secreted a large mass of white thick spider silk, which became sticky when it met the air.

At this time, a flame suddenly ignited from below.

And quickly jumped up along the spider silk, and in the blink of an eye, the flames actually ignited the gray-white giant web, and the whole was ignited into a large flame.

Occasionally, under the beating of the firelight, you can faintly reflect Malthus, who is hiding in the shadows and darkness on the side.

It turned out to be this shadow thief, and at some point, he smeared some of the thieves' usual accelerants on the giant net, and then hid them, finding an opportunity to ignite them directly with an open flame.

The blazing flames rose at the sight of the wind, and the huge gray-white cobwebs burned more easily than any dry wood.

The flames enveloped the giant spider beast, and together with the silk involved in its glands, it turned into a huge fireball.

Quiller's voice trembled a little, "Oh no, Lancer ...... them"

The only four remaining members of the Blood Spear also looked up with complicated expressions, and even some of the damp canopy branches and leaves were a little ignited.

At this time, along with the painfully burning and twisted giant spider, and a few smaller fireballs, they fell from the fire net one after another.

Several adventurers immediately rushed to the rescue, slapping the flames above with their cloaks, and emptying their own water bladders.

The one-handed sword rose from the dirt on the ground, and Loki helped extinguish a fireball, revealing a badly burned skin face, which was none other than the Lancer who had not been injected with corrosive liquid by the fangs.

There are also two members of the Blood Spear, who are also about the same burns.

But their bodies, which had been injected with corrosive venom by the giant spider demonic beast before, were not yet dead, but their muscles and internal organs were basically dissolved, and they just maintained the basic feeling of pain, and life was worse than death.

These two members of the Blood Spear were helped by the decisive and fierce warrior Quiller, to end their pain......

The wanderer, who was badly burned, said with difficulty: "I don't want to die......"

"Lancer, you idiot, you're just burned, go back and treat it with potions in time, and lie down for two months at most. ”

Morton found some potions on his body and applied them to Lancer while comforting them.

However, the two-handed swordsman was right, with the effect of some healing potions in the pharmacy, although the price must be expensive, it can indeed restore this level of burns.

If you spend a little more gold, you can recover even faster, and you don't even have to stay in bed for long, just ask some priests in the church who can heal magic.

"Mr. Malthus, our companion needs treatment, and we have to give up the Blood Spear on this exploration mission......"

Morton smeared the potion as he turned to the shadow thief to the side.

Accidentally encountered a demonic beast, the remaining members of the blood spear, not that they didn't want some compensation. But the employer is a shadow thief of the strength of a first-order professional, and he is a member of the thieves' union, and it is really unwise for a few people whose strength crushes the blood spear to rashly demand such unruly compensation that does not conform to the rules of risk.

"No, this mission cannot be abandoned, and in view of the danger encountered this time, I can give you all the honorarium and double the payment at the end. ”

Morton laughed dryly, grinned, and said, "This guy Lancer is in urgent need of treatment, and this money can't buy his life." ”

The shadow thief's expression was a little cold, and he finally took out a leather bag from his waist, "These can make him support for a little longer, let a warrior carry him, he won't die." ”

Morton hesitated for a moment and said, "Still no, this is a bet with Lancer's life............ Gotta add money. ”

Shadow thief, Malthus glanced around, including the half-elves who were silent on the side, rummaging through the remains of the fire, and then he said.

"Adventurers' Guild, what a bunch of greedy guys......"

"Well, I'll satisfy you, this mission is not just to explore the colony of jackals. Compared to the ruins, what is the movement of this group of beasts?"

"Ruins?" Morton, along with several of Bloodspear's companions, were drawn to the words.

The half-elf frowned not far away, this was already a little different from the original communication of the Silver Flame Church.

Malthus said: "That's right, I got a message that the guys who expelled the gnolls are entrenched near a ruin, and it is likely that the ruins left by the former 'elven kingdom', rich and noble elves, must not lack treasures such as gold coins and gems, and maybe even some more valuable antiques." ”

"Moreover, after this burning wood forest, it is less than a day's journey to arrive. ”

Several people from the Blood Spear glanced at each other and began to communicate in a low voice.

The warrior Keller hesitated, shook his head, and said, "Ruins, although I have often heard of it, and how many adventurers have seen it?"

The shadow thief sneered, "Even if there are no relics, the guys who drove the gnolls are likely to be the same clan of the gnolls, and they must have taken the wealth of the gnolls as their own, even if this is worth the risk of you greedy adventurers, right?"

Morton gritted his teeth, and finally said: "We went, and found treasure or something, and divided it according to the number of people......"

He added: "Quyler, Keynes, Walker, the four of us, each carry this fellow Lancer on our backs, and wait until we make money, so that this guy can be treated well, and even set aside a little pension." ”

Malthus squeezed out a smile, "It seems that we have reached an agreement, greed is indeed the source of the source of adventurers." ”

"The relics of the elves, the treasures, I'm afraid it's just a good thing to think about......"

Loki caressed the flames in front of him with his palm, dismissive of the Shadow Thief's claims.
