"In the name of Denya, O Holy Spirit of life, wash the weariness of the warrior with your loving gaze. Standing in the center of the defensive position, Lina held her hands aloft, and the holy light emanated from her hands, shining in the afterglow of the setting sun, sprinkling the bodies of every city guard. Under the glorious light, the large and small skin wounds on the soldiers' bodies were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and every city guard who was washed felt as if their bodies had been injected with new vitality, not only did they recover intact, but they also seemed to have recovered their physical strength, and they were no longer as exhausted as before.
"What a luxury magic. Captain Erlan admired jealously: "With such a powerful group healing effect, any team will be regarded as a god-like existence." ”
"Be careful with your teammates, this magic doesn't work for lethal damage. Lina said with a holy face and a calm and serene expression, "Don't let the light of the goddess's love be wasted. ”
"You all hear you, bastards. Erlan shouted: "Be careful for me, don't be afraid of injury, but even if you are injured, give me to avoid fatal parts, if anyone dares to die here, don't blame no one for collecting your corpses, cheer me up, bastard, didn't you sleep last night, one by one are so unenergetic?"
"I really didn't sleep. I don't know who secretly replied, which caused the soldiers at the front of the position to laugh wildly.
"Which bastard said that?" Ellan scolded angrily, "Let me find it, you'll be alone for tonight's vigil." ”
Obviously, no one will answer him, and the cooperation of the players has become more and more tacit, in every sense of the word. This group of young professionals, who usually only patrol the city, has grown rapidly in actual combat, and if nothing else, after a few decent battles, their future achievements are likely to be even higher.
"In the name of Denya, O evil spirit of death. Trample the shadows of your enemies with your icy gaze. "There is an extremely magic-consuming hymn to life, and there must be an elegy of death with a demon-absorbing effect, and a circle of small demonic beasts around the position is surrounded by black shadows at the same time. Although the damage of the Elegy of Death is very low, it is still fatal to the weak monsters with low rank and small size. In less than a minute, the surrounding demonic beasts fell to a piece, and fifty or sixty demonic beasts died from the magic effect of the Elegy of Death, and at the same time, Lina was replenished with the consumed mana.
"Wow, that's amazing. A group of team members shouted in fuss. Even in the midst of the battle, he couldn't help but secretly turn around and give Lina a look of worship, even the gold-level Erlan was quite surprised to look at Lina a few more times, even if he was well-informed, but a priest like Lina who could have both group attack and group healing magic, he had never seen it.
"Life is born on the earth, and life returns to dust. Ignoring the others, Lina reached out and drew a quadrilateral shape on her chest, and knelt down reverently. With his hands in front of him, he began to silently pray to the goddess for the souls of the monsters who died in this battle.
"Leave her alone, she's communicating with the goddess. Catherine shook her head at the puzzled Ellan, "You go on, just ignore her." ”
"Now this mask belongs to the pious priest Caterea. Pannis smacked his lips and said, "That one impresses me very much, he can attract the divine grace of the goddess of the earth despite his belief in other gods." ”
"Is the other party trying to trap us here?" Catherine said very incomprehensibly: "Obviously, these monsters can't cause harm to us, and he will definitely not be able to supervise at high altitude at night, and the monsters will soon recover their senses and disperse, so they can't trap us?"
"I don't know. I can't figure it out either. Pannis said, "But we can't make it to the end of the night, so we can be considered trapped in a different direction." ”
"But so what?" said Catherine, "Tomorrow we will continue to besiege us?" Today, it is estimated that all the demonic beasts within more than ten kilometers of the vicinity have been brought in, even if the other party still has the energy to continue the siege tomorrow, I am afraid that there are not so many demonic beasts for him to use. ”
"I don't know what he wants to do. Pannis raised his head and stared at the eagle hovering in the sky: "However, he put so much effort into it, and he definitely won't just delay us for half a day." And I'm afraid it's not even half a day. It was not early, and it was time to set up camp. So don't you understand what good it is for him to do this?"
"I think you said it, Pannis. Vivien played with a low-capacity spar in her hand, and said absentmindedly: "A seemingly unreasonable thing, there will always be reasonable factors hidden behind him, but it depends on whether you have time to find out." This person's intentions, I'm afraid, are the same. ”
"Well, I said that once, and I'm used to analyzing problems like this. Pannis nodded, "So I'm also wondering if there's something we're missing." ”
"If you can't think of it, just start all over again. Vivien uses Pannis's favorite question-and-answer analysis to say, "What is their purpose?"
"Ruining the wedding. "To put it more bluntly, it means that Freya can't get to Free City within the time limit." ”
"Then, what the other party is doing today must be in the service of this purpose. Vivien continued: "Although it seems that the other party is trying to trap us here, according to the analysis just now, this is impossible. In this case, we might as well assume that the other party also knew that it was impossible to do it, and he did it anyway, apparently to hide his true purpose. ”
"Moreover, this purpose is probably premised on us being temporarily trapped here. Pannis suddenly slapped the roof of the car: "I'm afraid his purpose is still to destroy all the gifts." ”
"But even if we stop moving, with the current level of Warcraft, we won't be able to break through the defense and destroy the gift car. Catherine interjected, "I'm afraid even a few more gold-level demonic beasts won't be able to do it." ”
"Maybe he can't break through the defenses, but what if he doesn't need to break through the defenses at all?" Pannis looked up with a roll of his eyelids.
"You mean from the sky?" Catherine and Vivien looked up at the sky together, "This is difficult, even if he throws anything, I can easily block it." ”
"No, not from heaven. Pannis stood up with a snort: "What if from underground?"
"Indeed, although the current defensive positions are tightly arranged, they also limit the movement of gift carts. Vivien nodded: "If you really raid the gift car directly from the ground, I'm afraid you won't be able to hide." However, if you want to raid from underground, you need to use earth-attribute magic, and I will definitely detect any magic fluctuations. ”
"No, it doesn't have to be magic. Pannis jumped directly off the ground, put his ear to the ground and said while listening: "Among the categories of Warcraft, there is one of the most important classifications that we have never encountered today. ”
"Insect monsters?" Vivien floated and slowly fell from the top of the carriage, forcefully inserting the staff deep into the earth, closing her eyes and being silent for a while, the staff began to flicker with a thick and dim light: "I reinforced the ground a little, but I don't know if I can stop it." ”
"I'm afraid it's difficult. Pannis listened to the movement for a long time: "I heard a heavy digging and passing sound, I am afraid that it is less than 100 meters away from the ground, and it will only take 20 minutes to dig into the ground." ”
"Lina, stop praying. Catherine raised her voice and shouted, "Come down and get to work, it's your job." ”
"Why did they all run down?" Lina jumped down and saw everyone's reactions, and immediately understood the current situation: "There's something underground? Well, it's miserable, the gift cart can't move at all, if the target is them, it's troublesome." ”
"So you need to get to work, replace the ground with stone. Catherine said urgently, "Pannis said that it will be dug up in twenty minutes at the earliest. ”
"It's not easy to get under the ground. Lina quickly circled along the inner range of the defensive line, and said with a headache: "If they are all replaced, I will completely lose my combat effectiveness today, there is no way, my mental strength is overdrawn." And even so, on such a large scale, I can create a maximum of one meter of rock formation, big sister, are you sure? If you're sure, I'll start. ”
"Wait. Catherine stopped Lina's movements: "There should be another way. ”
"Three, there are three bugs in the ground that I don't know what they are. Pannis said suddenly, "But the digging speed is different, maybe this point can be used to kill them separately, as long as they are willing to expose the ground." ”
"There's a way. Vivien's eyes lit up, and she secretly tapped Lina on the head with her staff, and then immediately ran to a gift cart and began to carve on it.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Lina covered her head and said inexplicably, "Why did you hit me? I didn't mess with you." ”
"Shhhh Vivien said confidently: "In case the drawing that you interfered with fails, Freya's wedding failure is your responsibility, and you will have to face her sadness when the time comes." ”
"You ....... Lina immediately understood that Vivien was just taking the opportunity to hit her, and she wanted to retaliate but was worried that it would really interfere with the drawing of the circle, so she could only stomp her feet angrily on the spot, until Catherine pressed her shoulder to soothe her for a long time before calming down.
"Circle, lovely circle. As soon as Vivien started working on magic, her energy would be extremely concentrated, and several magic pens danced at the same time under the control of the puppet manipulation, and mysterious magic circles quickly took shape, and soon filled the compartment of the gift cart.
"Alright, done. More than ten minutes passed, and Vivian suddenly threw away the magic pen and cheered: "Record-breaking speed, sure enough, there is pressure to be motivated." Look, big sister, this is a weight loss circle, you will ...... in a while"
"Alright, done. At the same time, from the luxury car, Freya heard the same cheer: "Linda, take this out to the eldest sister, this is an imitation of the ancient bird trap." (To be continued.) )
