"That top adventurer over there, ask you something. Lina sat on the ground, crossed her arms over her chest, holding a book as thick as her index finger, but she didn't look through it, but looked around very boredly: "Have you ever seen a hunter?"
"Yes. Pannis, adjusting the bow that Ladia had brought, replied, "The longest I've ever seen is about an arm's length." ”
"Actually, I've seen it once. Lina said.
"Did you see it in the Warcraft Illustrated Book again?" Pannis teased.
"Of course not, it's a physical thing. Lina's voice was a little low: "I saw it when I was a child." ”
"That's rare. Pannis didn't hear the depression in Lina's voice: "Most of the magical beasts like the Earth Hunter live underground, and they are very afraid of people, and they never go to crowded places, so even if they occasionally stray into the surface, they will rarely be discovered by humans, have you actually seen it, should you say that you are lucky, or are you unlucky?"
"It's normal, it's an abandoned library basement. Lina leaned her hands half-back against the rock wall, staring at the clear light and darkness in front of her.
The three of them sat in a circle at this time in an invisible cover, which was laid by Pennis with the Concealment Circle. The Hidden Circle is a very interesting and practical adventure circle, which can isolate sound, light, and smell in one direction. In other words, sounds and smells from the outside can come in, but sounds and smells from inside cannot go out unless the volume is too loud to exceed the isolation threshold. As for the isolation of light, when there is light outside, the concealment circle will cause the light to be deflected, causing the effect of invisibility, and only the most experienced person can find a space shrouded by the concealment circle during the day. If there is no light on the outside and there is light on the inside, it will be like now, the inside is brightly lit, but the outside is plunged into complete darkness, and the inside cannot see the outside, and the outside cannot see the inside.
"You don't seem to be happy. Pannis finally noticed Lina's depression: "What happened?"
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just a reminder of the past. Lina cleaned up her mood and stretched out her foot and gently kicked Pannis's leg: "Hey, now that there are two beautiful ladies sitting next to you, don't you have a point?"
"Huh, what does it mean?" Pannis was completely unable to comprehend the thoughts of a depressed woman.
"For example, telling a story or something, otherwise it's just boring. Lina patted the Warcraft Illustrated Book in her hand boringly: "Anyway, I'm more patient with Warcraft now." ”
"Let Miss Ladyia tell us about herself. Pannis said, "We're going to fight side by side soon, so let's get to know each other with our comrades." ”
"My lord, I. Lydia said at a loss.
"Call me again, sir, and you will go back for me. Lina pretended to be angry: "I call you Lydia, you have to call me Lina, call him Pannis, don't call him an adult, this is an order." ”
"Yes, big ......" "Huh?"
"Yes. For the first time, Lydia replied weakly.
"Hehe, that's right, come on, talk about yourself. Lina smirked.
"I ...... I...... I really don't have much to say," Lydia said at a loss: "My family is an ordinary peasant family on the outskirts of Oran City, because I have been strong since I was a child, so when the city guard recruited new recruits three years ago, they chose me. After joining the city guard, every day is patrolling, training, and resting. The security near Oran City is very good, there are no bandits or anything like that, there are few criminal activities, and life is very monotonous. Every year, like these days, it is already a very important action for everyone to come to the harvest festival in each village to maintain law and order. ”
"Then why do you have to come down with us?" Lina asked curiously, "It stands to reason that you can not come down at all, and you haven't participated in any battles, so why do you want to come down?"
Lydia blushed and whispered, "Although I have not participated in a battle, and I have not yet been able to become a professional, I am also a warrior, and I also want to pursue the glory of a warrior, and I also want to do my part to protect the city and protect the people." ”
"That's good. Pannis nodded and interjected, "But haven't you thought about it, this is a very dangerous operation. Faced with a completely unknown environment and unknown enemies, you are likely to die underneath this. ”
"I don't know. Lydia said a little confused, "But I don't want to regret my choice today in the future." I thought, even if I did die here, at least I had a moment of glory, and that would be enough. ”
"Naive. Pannis sneered wickedly, and was about to speak, when he suddenly stood up suddenly, lowered his voice and said, "Shhhh ”
"It's not easy. Lina breathed a sigh of relief: "After five hours of waiting, they finally ran out of patience. ”
"Closer, three indeed. Pannis couldn't see through the darkness outside the barrier, so he could only rely on his hearing to judge: "After they all come out in a while, I will remove the concealment circle, Lina, you rush directly to the entrance of the cave to block their retreat, and the three of us will attack them on both sides." Be careful, Ladia, and remember that the glory of a moment is tempting, but it is based on the fact that you will have the opportunity to remember this moment in the future, so be careful and live. ”
"I see, thank you. Lydia nodded gratefully.
"Ready, the anti-hunt began. Pannis slowly drew his short bow, closed his eyes and relied on the sound to find the direction of the Earth Hunter, took a few deep breaths, and kicked over the central mythic silver plate of the hidden circle: "Up." ”
The moment the hidden enchantment disappeared, the light covered by the magic circle filled the entire underground crack, and Lina chased the pace of the light, and rushed to the junction of the horizontal crack and the longitudinal crack for the first time, blocking the retreat of the demonic beasts. She had just blocked the entrance to the cave, but she was suddenly stunned. The light illuminated the underground rift, but the rift was empty except for three people, and not even the shadow of the Earth Hunter could be seen.
"Be careful, they will change color. Pannis, standing still with his bow open, was startled when he saw that he could not see the hunter, but immediately thought of the reason, and shot an arrow by feeling. The arrow flew halfway through, and suddenly disappeared halfway, and a bloody arrow erupted out of thin air with a miserable hiss, and a pure white lizard emerged, with an arrow stuck in its mouth, and collapsed to the ground weakly, staring at Pannis with hatred. The pure white lizard is about the length of an adult, with a triangular head protruding from a sharp horn. At the end of its muscular limbs, its sharp claws scratched at the ground, but the wound in its mouth through its head made it unable to stand up.
"Divine art, Heavenly Armor. Divine magic, the power of holiness. A translucent full-body armor appeared in the void above Lina's head, and slowly landed to wrap Lina in the armor, Lina moved her arm and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? I've never heard of a Terraocher changing color and becoming invisible, and I've never heard of a Terrachian Hunter having horns. ”
"I don't know, I haven't heard of it, but this is indeed a Ground Hunter. Ignoring the hateful gaze staring at him, Pannis searched around for the shadow of the enemy: "If you can't see it, judge by your voice." Lydia, you go to Lina's side, walk slowly over there, and be on guard at all times. ”
"Yes. Ladia carried her shield and clinged to the rock wall of the chasm, moving to Lina's side without any danger.
"Okay, just wait there, the shield is ready. Pannis whispered, "Don't worry about the half-dead one, there are two left, one big and one small." Both of them are silver high-level strengths, but the stealth ability is very headache-inducing. Careful, careful, ready, shield, left. ”
Lydia subconsciously raised the shield to the left, and the steel shield made a muffled sound, and a strong dipping force came from the place where the tongue and the steel shield touched, and Lydia pulled back hard, so that the two could be successfully separated, and they were not dragged by the pull from the tongue. At the same time as Ladia and the monster were fighting, Lina rushed out from behind Ladia like a gust of wind, and the tip of the mace was swung vigorously against the ground, seemingly without any target, but just halfway through the swing, it collided with a sharp claw that appeared out of thin air. Under the power of the blessed holiness, the mace carried a tremendous force, causing the claws to make a sound of bones shattering, and after the claws, a lizard, which was also close to the height of an adult, rolled on the ground for several meters in a row.
"Lina, magic shield, right now. Seeing that Lina also took a step back under the backlash of power, Pannis, who was waiting with a bow, had a normal face, but suddenly became very anxious and shouted loudly.
After the previous cooperation in the Weeping Cave, Lina obviously trusted Pannis's judgment very much, and when she heard Pannis's shout, she didn't even hesitate, and the pale yellow magic shield opened in an instant, covering her body in all directions. As soon as the magic shield opened, a soft snapping sound was heard, and a cloud of liquid appeared out of thin air, spraying at the position of the magic shield close to Lina's face, and it took a moment to slowly flow down the magic shield, and a pungent sour smell also spread.
Lina's face changed suddenly, and she quickly closed the magic shield, so that the liquid lost its support, and sprinkled directly on the ground, corroding the ground into potholes: "It's so powerful acid, it's so destructive to the magic shield that it's exaggerated." What is this, and how can it still spew acid?"
"It's supposed to be squirting out of the horns, what the hell, what kind of hunter is this. Pannis was also confused.
Lina exhaled and said with a little nervousness, "One is dead, one is half-disabled, and the other one can you find?" ”
"No, it's nearby. Pannis, secretly rolling his eyelids upwards, gestured to Lina.
Lina blinked knowingly, and retreated to Lydia's side to check her shield: "How are you, Lydia, thanks to you for helping me attract the attention of the demonic beast just now, how are you, can you continue to fight?"
"No problem, my lord. Ladia replied loudly as she straightened up.
"Raise your shield, up. Pannis suddenly shouted.
A violent wind fell from the sky, and a huge body nearly three meters long pressed down on Ledia and Lina with the force of the fall, and the two sharp front paws flashed with ominous light.
