Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Bitter Battle
Under the silver moon, a faint purple light shone outside the silver fortress, and the purple light was strange and delicate, with the allure of destruction. Outside the barrier, the two girls stood side by side, the knight in silver scale armor had black hair, the knight's sword in his hand shone in the moonlight, the priest in black leather armor had silver hair fluttering, holding a silver mace high, and the silver magic book was spread out in his hand, the holy aura was like a goddess descending to the earth, and even the crescent-shaped scar on his forehead was full of divine charm. Behind the two of them, there was a roar in the silver fortress, and large balls of energy bombs flew past the two of them, sometimes even carrying the hair of the two to flutter in the wind, and the energy balls crossed the two and exploded between the enemies, setting off a wave of qi. With the sound of explosions, the enemy's shields were constantly broken, and they flew out in all directions screaming. Enemies flying in other directions are fine, but if they don't fly in the direction of the fortress, they will be touched by the purple light curtain and once again withstand the elemental spell attack of a legendary mage. After the shield is breached, if you bear a spell attack of this intensity, unless the recipient is also physically qualified after being promoted to the legendary level, I am afraid that you will be seriously injured if you don't die.
Perhaps outside of the battle, Catherine will feel pity and unbearable feelings for these miserable situations, but once she enters the battle state, as a knight, Catherine will not stop moving forward. Whether it is pain, repentance, or atonement, these are all issues that need to be considered after the battle, and in the battle, all those who attack and resist are the enemy, and in the eyes of the knights, only the enemies who fall and surrender are harmless, and the rest are the targets of destruction. To be soft-hearted to the enemy in battle is to betray one's comrades who have entrusted their lives to themselves. Therefore, Catherine's gaze was as calm as the sea water in the deep sea, without a little fluctuation, the sword and shield in her hand struck hard, exchanged a look with Lina beside her, and walked forward.
The Priest is a spell-casting class, with a much worse physical strength than the same level of physical class, and does not have any combat skills, so many people think that the Priest is as fragile as a mage, and can only be combated under the protection of teammates. But in fact, perhaps in a solo duel with a physical professional, the priest's melee ability is indeed weak, but in a large-scale melee, the priest can exist as a powerful defensive barrier, and the changeable divine blessing allows them to have a strength and speed that is not weaker than that of a physical professional of the same level in a short period of time, and the powerful healing ability makes it difficult for them to lose their combat effectiveness due to pain, so it is also a headache to meet a melee priest in a melee. It is said that once upon a time, there was a Heavy Priest in full body armor, and it was an even more formidable Battle Priest.
Although Lina is not wearing heavy armor, she is not afraid of short-term melee combat at all, her real weakness is that once the battle time is too long, from the time of the enhancement magic blessed on her body to the time of blessing again, this period often lasts for three or four minutes, for her this is an undefended time period, and it is easy to be attacked and seriously injured. However, with the two fortresses behind her, once the spell is about to fail, she can retreat to the fortress to re-bless, thus completely hiding her weaknesses. Therefore, Lina was not worried at all, and she and Catherine were back to back, Catherine turned sideways to the front left, and Lina turned sideways to the right back, and the two used to support each other and trudge through the crowd with difficulty.
Everywhere the two of them went, there were at least five crystal energy guns in the metal fortress that were transferred to the direction of the two, and the energy bombs continued to explode among the enemies around the two, although they may not be able to cause effective damage to high-level enemies, but it also seriously interfered with their siege of Catherine and Lina, at least the silver-level controlled sea clan was not able to approach them at all, and the gold-level controlled sea clans, although they could withstand the attack of the crystal energy gun, they had to continue to develop shield defense, and the energy left on the two girls became very small. Only the Legendary-level controlled sea clan can carry the bombardment of these energy bombs and fight the two girls head-on, but they are also affected a lot, and under Catherine's strong defense, they can't cause much trouble to the two girls at all.
And the two girls are actually very difficult on their side, although with the cover of the crystal energy gun, they can shuttle through the crowd, but the battle is not their purpose, their real purpose is to search for mission targets, so it is dangerous to distract themselves in battle.
"Let's divide the work. After walking a few steps, Catherine also discovered this danger, frowned and thought about it and said to Lina behind her: "I concentrate on defense, and you are mainly responsible for searching." Let's go around the area with the fortress as the center and within a radius of fifteen meters around it, and if we can't finish searching in two circles, we will circle three times, and we must find every piece of ground. ”
"No problem, I'll find a more suitable fit. Lina held the law book, pointed the hammer in front of her, and a controlled sea tribe in front of her suddenly collapsed as if she had been hit head-on by an invisible boulder, her nose spurted blood and collapsed, and her body flew backwards, and by the way, she also knocked down another person behind her. Flying an enemy, Lina moved the hammer and stood sideways, blocking the attack of the bone fork in the hand of an enemy with only one hand, and raised her foot to kick him away: "If I get close enough to the target, I should be able to automatically generate a sense." ”
"That's why I told you to come and find me. Catherine grabbed the top of the shield with both hands, raised the shield flat, and suddenly circled around Lina quickly. It just so happened that there were no Legendary-level enemies around the two of them at this time, so the dense enemies were slapped by the whirlwind-like shield and fanned away continuously, leaving the two of them empty. After a circle, Catherine regained her shield with her left arm and took a few steps forward: "Be meticulous, find all the gaps, we can't waste our great efforts, and we can't let the blood of innocents flow in vain." ”
"Don't worry, eldest sister. Lina maced the ground a little, and the pale yellow light condensed into a barrier, blocking several enemy weapons at the same time, and then swept across the mace when the enemy's weapons were bounced away, and the wall of light disappeared in time, allowing the mace to continue to hammer on the enemy's waist without hindrance. Although with the strength of the enemy's gold-level body, a hammer smash like this would not cause serious damage, but it would also bring considerable pain, and several enemies staggered backwards with their waists covered, and Lina had time to continue: "You just slowly circle outward, and I will remind you after searching all your predetermined range." ”
Actually, the four girls were lucky because the enemies here were not too dense. If the enemy is pressed in a crowd by crowding people, even with the breakthrough ability of Catherine and Lina, coupled with the cooperation of the crystal energy gun, they will not be able to move normally, and they are afraid that they will not be able to search for a meter of space, and they will be squeezed back by the human wall, after all, no matter how strong their strength is, they will not be able to compete with the hundreds of high-level professionals crowded together. But the enemy is actually quite scattered, there are a lot of gaps between people, although it is an encirclement formation, but it still gives two people space to break through, and the enemy in the distance, it seems that the attack ** is not so strong, more inclined to in-situ defense, only a certain range of enemies will attack wildly, so there is no need to really fight against hundreds of high-level professionals at the same time. In this way, although the number of enemies is still terrifying, the situation of the two girls is slightly better than imagined. But even so, after a brief circle around the fortress twice, half an hour had passed, and the purple light curtain on the periphery of the fortress behind it had become slightly dimmer than at the beginning.
"Thank you so much for keeping them under control. "In the melee, Lina was inevitably hit by a few bone sword cuts on her waist, and the wound was not too deep, but it was difficult to recover under the effect of the healing technique that continued to take effect. Although she was injured, Lina still teased bitterly: "If they hadn't been controlled and sane, so many enemies, including thirty or forty legendary ranks, it is estimated that we would have been beaten long ago without even shards." ”
"Are you being beaten stupid?" Catherine also gasped, her black hair was wet and sticking to her face that was still covered with mud, but her smile was particularly delicate on her face that was slightly red from strenuous exercise: "If they are not controlled, how can there be any need to fight? Everyone sits down to drink a cup of black tea, talk about life together, and then go home separately." ”
"Don't you think that's Pannis's style?" Lina forced back the enemy around her, bent down and turned over a few large pieces of rubble on the ground, and then shook her head in disappointment: "I don't know what strange methods he will use to solve the situation if he is here." ”
"Are you laughing at me for not being as good as him?" Catherine's words, though harsh, were not serious at all, and she just said casually, "Don't forget that I am your eldest sister." Well, but you're right, compared to his seemingly strange methods, they are always extra effective, and they really don't seem to be as good as him. ”
"Of course, he's probably more adventurous than we all combined. "As time goes by, the two of them chat more and more often, and there is no way to choose this, when the physical fatigue accumulates to a certain level, you must rely on conversation to distract your attention, so as to relieve the fatigue psychologically. Lina chuckled and said: "I don't think he will be as young as he seems on the surface, who knows what method he uses to make himself become like a young man to lie to girls everywhere, eldest sister, are you interested in pursuing it." ”
"Forget it, be careful that he will pursue your secret for revenge. Catherine's sore arm made a mistake, and a bloody wound was left on her thigh by a Legendary-rank enemy, but there was no pain on her face at all, and she still said with a smile: "But if you find the answer, you must tell me, I also want to be able to stay young all the time." ”
"Dream on, I'm not that stupid. Although Catherine couldn't see it, Lina stuck out her tongue mischievously, was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Sister, go back first, I seem to have discovered a little." ”
"Mission objectives?" asked Catherine expectantly.
"yes, I think I've found a clue. Lina nodded and said, "Go back and discuss." ”
"Good. Catherine and Lina rushed back to the edge of the fort as best they could, shouting, "Open the door." (To be continued.) )
