"Does he even speak monkey talk?" The gopher crouched on a large rock, and watched in amazement as Pannis communicated with the leader of the ape pack, "Captain, have you ever seen such a person?"

"It's not supposed to be talking. Dora listened for a while and said, "It's just a simple shout, it's not a language, and many people can do it." ”

"I haven't seen it anyway. The gopher stuck out its tongue and watched Pannis's every move with great interest.

Under the gaze of the other eighteen creatures, Pannis and the leader of the ape group used their hands and feet together, one would roar and one would gesticulate, it seemed that the discussion was very intense, the tall and sturdy leader of the ape group from time to time wheeled the huge 'wooden stick' in his hand to make a whirring wind, Pannis did not show weakness at all, the two feet took turns to step on the ground, it seemed that there was no strength, but with the help of ingenuity to make every time he stepped on the ground would make a dull knock sound, it seemed to sound full of deterrence.

After a few minutes of lively friendly exchanges, the leader of the ape group seemed to have lost his patience, and kept yelling irritably, and the nine male apes following behind him also clamoured, and his attitude became more and more dangerous. Pannis didn't show any cowardice, he sneered fearlessly, compared with his thumb behind him, with a disdainful expression on his face, the anxious apes saw what was behind Pannis, and suddenly froze, stunned for thirty seconds before re-reacting, but the atmosphere became obviously weird.

The nine male apes who were clamoring suddenly retreated in silence, and the movements of the leader of the ape group became very stiff, as if he was deliberately showing something, and from time to time he beat his chest with both hands to show his brave momentum. After a few more moments of exchange, Pannis shrugged and turned back to his side.

"Oh, oh, oh. Lina stealthily thumped her chest with her hands, mocking Pannis and asking, "What did you say to it?"

"Well, in fact, although it is a long time, there is not much content to communicate, after all, the communication method is too difficult. Pannis scratched his head, a little embarrassed to organize the language: "At first he said let us leave the hilly area immediately, I said that we will cross the hills to the opposite river, so we will stay in the hilly area for five days, he disagreed, let us have to leave immediately, I said that it will not interfere with them, but it firmly disagrees, saying that if we don't leave immediately, it will attack." ”

"And then. Vivien leaned over and asked, "What did you do to make its attitude change immediately, so ...... Uh, magical?"

"Of course, we're inviting our long-legged beauty, Miss Dora. Pannisy bowed to Dora like a gentleman and praised in a song-like aria: "Our Miss Dora is gentle and beautiful, let it fall at once, and fall under your skirt." In order to get your heart, it is willing to give in and fight a one-on-one duel with the person we have chosen, as for the bet, hehehehehe. ”

"%#¥%@", Dora couldn't help but burst into a foul word, flew up and kicked at Pennis, and said angrily: "Bastard, you just sold me like this." ”

"How can you say sell it? Pannis fled behind Catherine with his head in his hands, stuck out his head and said with a smile: "It's your senior sister who is fighting on our behalf, don't you believe her? Believe me, this is the safest way." ”

Dora frowned and thought for a moment, then stole a glance at the leader of the ape. The tall ape's face was flushed with no body hair, and its nostrils were spraying white roughness, and it was constantly showing off its well-developed muscles and strong body. Dora covered her forehead with a broken face, and glared fiercely at Pannis, who was smiling badly: "You wait for me." ”

"I knew you were going to play tricks, and you were going to her off to death. Catherine elbowed Pannis: "However, it's not so easy to do it in one step. ”

"Hey, hey, hey. Pannis smiled mysteriously: "You should be ready to fight, don't lose because you are nervous." ”

"Ha, did you know me on the first day?, will I be nervous because of the battle?" Catherine sneered, picked up the iris shield beside her, her muscles trembled, and her bones continued to make a crunch sound: "This is a strong enemy, but the knight is fearless, and he is ready for my victory." ”

"We await your triumphant return, Lord Valkyrie. Pannis's face was originally full of smiles, but when he involuntarily said this extremely familiar name to Catherine, he was immediately frozen, and the smile on his face quickly turned into dazed and overwhelmed, and he was stunned for a long time before he re-put on a reluctant smile. Unfortunately, Catherine had already turned and walked towards the ape, and she did not see this intriguing scene.

"Captain, you should be happy. The gopher's voice woke up the distracted Pennis, and when he turned around, he saw the gopher persuading Dora: "Do you think, this means that your charm has reached the point where you can conquer even aliens across races, isn't it something worth celebrating?"

"Well, you have a point. Dora clasped her hands to her chest, thought for a while and nodded, "Is it true that my charm is too invincible?" Oh hehehehe, okay, Pannis, I will forgive you this time." ”

"Well, thank you so much. Pannis secretly restrained his mood and teased: "I'll just say, I never play tricks." ”

"Roar!" the leader saw that Catherine, who was fully armed, was already standing in front of him, ready for battle, and immediately let out a loud roar, holding a huge wooden stick about the height and thickness of an adult, and did not attack, but struck the head of the stick on the ground hard, as if he were saluting. Catherine was stunned for a moment, put away her discrimination against ape intelligence and prejudice against non-intelligent races, and her sword and shield with a serious face lightly exchanged blows, and she also returned the formal etiquette of a knight's duel. When Catherine had finished saluting and raised her shield and sword again, the leader was no longer polite, and picked up the huge wooden stick and smashed it head-on.

The forests in the hilly areas are different from the plains below, the trees in the hilly forests are relatively sparse, and the distance between trees is often about seven or eight meters, and although the ground is covered with vines and shrubs, there is still enough space for the giant ape to wield a stick. The vines and shrubs on the ground do not disturb them at all, and they usually leap and swing their giant sticks to attack their enemies in such an environment. Now the crowd was in a gravel clearing at the top of the mountain, empty and without obstacles such as vines blocking Catherine, so that the impact of the environment on Catherine was minimized, so that Catherine could fight to her heart's content without interference.

Seeing the stick falling, Catherine did not choose to retreat and dodge, but directly raised her shield upward, using the most standard oblique shield to block it, and met the leader's heavy knock.

The roar resounded throughout the mountaintop, and the stick in the leader's hand was obviously not an ordinary tree, it was extremely tough, and after a heavy smash, there was not even the slightest damage. And the strength of the leader is also very strong, after the impact of the weapon, there is no discomfort in the wrist, the stick is raised again by the force of the shock, draws a random arc in the air, and smashes down head-on again. Catherine's strength did not seem to be as strong as that of the leader of the apes, and she took a step back after the heavy blow, but immediately moved forward again, the blade of her right hand held outward, and the back of her wrist was attached to the left hand holding the shield, and she was once again facing the leader's attack.

It was another earth-shattering loud noise, and the loud sound made Vivien, who was relatively fragile, couldn't help but cover her ears, and the splash made several silver-level mercenaries and guide Elad also frown and retreat a little distance.

The dust and rubble kicked up by the sound waves quickly dispersed, revealing the two warring sides within. This time the leader failed to maintain the coherence of his attack, letting out a light roar of surprise under Catherine's tough frontal block, and was forced back by the force of the shock. Catherine didn't look very comfortable, and she also took a step back again, her eyebrows subconsciously furrowed slightly, and she took several deep breaths in a row to alleviate the impact of the impact of the force on her body.

"Senior sister is actually useless. Dora said in a low voice: "The other party's rank is higher than her, and her advantage is that she can use fighting energy." ”

"The other party will too, although not strong. "The best of the mountain apes are the ones who can use simple vindictiveness. However, Catherine seems to have seen this as a formal duel, and is now only testing the attack. ”

After the two encounters, the leader of the mountain apes obviously paid a lot more attention to the battle, and no longer despised the strange guy in front of him, who was thinner than himself, and for the first time bowed slightly, and slowly circled around Catherine at a very slow speed. Catherine's body weight was lowered, holding the shield to keep facing the giant ape, and her face was cold and followed in a circle with the same speed, and for a while neither side launched another attack, and she patiently circled around looking for opportunities.

"Looks like it won. Although the two sides were still going around in circles on the field, Pannis relaxed and sat leisurely to the side: "The advantage of the mountain ape is great strength and super high flexibility, now Catherine only has a slight disadvantage in terms of strength, and in terms of flexibility, the last thing the guardian knight is afraid of is flexibility." What's more, the knight's mobility is much higher than that of any class, so as long as Catherine activates her fighting spirit and attacks at a critical moment, the battle can be over. ”

The two people on the field launched again, this time Catherine attacked, her body shrunk behind the iris shield, and she launched a knight's professional skill shield charge against the giant ape. Shield Charge is one of the most basic skills for defending knights, but few knights are willing to practice this skill because it is so stupid to practice. If you want to practice this skill well, you can't use it on the air like other skills, but you have to really hit it, only when you really complete the impact, can you master the skills of the skill at the moment of impact, the subtle adjustment of the shield angle, the retraction and release of the force, and the control of the direction, these are not things that can be understood by casting the air. Therefore, if you want to practice this skill well, you must continuously cast the skill on solid objects, and constantly knock yourself all over the body, and you must do so often. In the backyard of 6 Fox Street, Pannis once found some hard boulders of various shapes, some of which have been broken into small pieces, some of which are still intact, and each boulder bears witness to the countless bruises left on Catherine's body, and witnesses the blood and sweat she has paid.
