"Is this guy warning us?" I don't know who said that, and the outcasts laughed loudly, completely ignoring the only four travelers who had the ability to resist.
Orlando lowered his voice and asked Link in Elven language, "Are you going to kill them all?"
Through Guò Finn, he knew that Link hated and would not have mercy on such outcasts who ignored the law and morality.
Link's answer was an arrow shot.
"Poof!" there was a muffled sound, and the laughter of the man who had spoken before turned into a scream, and his arrow was hit by an arrow. The crowd fell silent, and the pain was so intense that the man fell headlong from his horse, his injuries enraging the entire crowd of outcasts, who drew their weapons and shouted for Link to be cut to pieces.
The battle was inevitable, Orlando plucked the mandolin, the strings played the notes of battle, and the horses rose to their tops and threw the man off their backs.
The priestess also chanted a hymn with a buffing effect, and all four of her own participants in the battle were filled with holy light, which was a magic that could resist physical attacks.
Link's targets are all arms, with the aim of disintegrating the fighting power of the outcasts. What he didn't expect was that the aristocratic young man took out a long sword out of nowhere and rushed straight into the homeless people, not only easily breaking the siege on him, but also bringing down the enemies around him. All of the people he touched lacked arms and legs, and Link's practice of only shooting and wounding his arms was too merciful.
Orlando stopped fiddling with the mandolin, and although he didn't show the stunned expression like the merchant, he was also stunned.
Link lowered his longbow and looked at the invincible aristocratic youth, already with the answer in his heart. If it wasn't a coincidence, it was sent by Dawn. As a medium that can be possessed by gods, the rank is naturally not low, and it is very likely. He is the most powerful Knight of the Dawn in the Dawn Sect.
[You guessed it right, it's indeed the Knight of the Dawn.] So young, it should be the voters. 】
Jafar, who was already silent, continued to remain silent as soon as Lorelei spoke.
After a while, most of the originally arrogant homeless people were killed or injured, and the rest all ran away.
The priest approached with unhurried steps. Tilting his head to look at the wounded man on the ground, "How can you do this, Doyle." ”
Moans came and went, and the wounded homeless people pinned their last hope on her, a pastor who could save lives, and cheekily begged for help.
"Help us!"
"Have mercy on ......"
"It should be killed directly, lest I waste my divine power to heal. "Sweet and lovely. The pastor, who was always smiling, said something like this, and everyone, including Link, was about to dislocate their jaws.
"Yes, evil will be removed. Keep these dross, and after the injury is healed, you will continue to harm others. The aristocratic young man, who had been leaning towards his master, listened to the priest's complaint, turned around and walked back with his sword.
"Wait a minute!"
Link spoke out to stop. The aristocratic young man who was called Doyle did not stop, only to see that with a wave of his hand, a wave of light shot out from the blade of the sword in his hand, and in the blink of an eye, he killed all the homeless people lying on the ground.
The golden light changes from waveform to scattering. The originally holy emblem looked very strange against the backdrop of dead corpses in a place. This is a warning that these people were killed by the Dawn Sect.
[Now you know why the priests of Dawn are not popular, right?] Lorelei hates the Dawn Sect not only because of the opposition between the camps, but also because the followers of Dawn are paranoid and think they are the embodiment of justice.
Lowering the longbow again, Link looked at Doyle who was a few steps away from him with a stern expression, "These outcasts are not guilty of death, even if they commit murder, there is a law to deal with!"
Doyle snorted coldly, "Who just said that he wanted to live and leave now? Why are you pretending to be a good person now?"
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense. Merchant Uk's gaze kept scanning back and forth between the ranger and the nobleman, fearing that the two of them would fight.
"Don't worry about this guy, he's like this to everyone. Orlando walked between Link and the nobles, acting as a peacemaker while blocking Doyle's defiant gaze.
Link didn't say anything. Bypass the nobles and return to the drums. Just now, in order to protect the other four people who had no combat effectiveness, he let the wolf stay here to act as an opportunity, but fortunately, the scene was still under control.
"Don't be like him, he's a nobleman. Orlando switched to Elven to persuade Link, fearing that he wouldn't be able to bear this breath and do it, revealing his identity.
"I know, he did it on purpose. Link's expression reverted to that of Ranger Melville's facial paralysis.
"Huh?"
"He killed the homeless people on purpose to provoke me. Noting that the youth's eyes were always on him, Link changed the language to Chinese.
The corners of Orlando's mouth twitched, "Aren't you afraid that they will be suspicious......"
"Whatever you're afraid of, explain how you learned the otherworldly language. Link noticed Doyle's demeanor when he listened to his conversation with the half-elves, and after switching to Chinese, a trace of anxiety flashed in the other party's eyes, so he was very sure that Doyle could understand elven language!
As soon as the aristocratic youth could understand the elven language, Orlando no longer objected.
Elven language is not a particularly difficult language to learn, it is not as rare as dragon language, and it is difficult to talk about sound as otherworldly language, but in addition to mages, only nobles who have mixed with elves can learn elven language. Especially after the invasion of the undead, the elves have not appeared in human towns for many years, and even the merchants have given up trading with the elves.
The glow elves and the pillars of the earth are enclosed in the enchantment of the Guardian Land, the night elves are busy fighting for territory with the demons who enter the surface from the abyss, and the only area in the entire Big 6 that still has elves is only Cronberg, where the wood elves are also called wild elves, and the bloodlines are the most mixed among the elves, and they are the only elves who will intermarry with humans. Thinking of the destination of Uk's caravan was Clumberg, Orlando's expression became solemn.
"Something suddenly occurred to me. ”
"What?" Now, it was Link's turn to be puzzled.
"Melville had a love affair when he was younger. ”
Link suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"The other party is a mage, I heard that it is a nobleman from Melville, because of the disparity in status, and Melville's insistence on refusing to leave Befast, the two finally broke up. I'm thinking......" Orlando rubbed his chin. Looking at Link with a gloating expression, "If they have children, they're about the same age as that guy." ”
It was only a day or two from choosing Melville as the impersonator to meeting Doyle, and Link stroked his forehead, "It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Orlando shook his head slightly. "I'm afraid it's not a coincidence, but it's intentional. The Lifeweaver can't be predicted, but have you ever thought what if the object of his prediction was Melville? Suppose that kid happened to use prophecy at that time. Won't it show up like you? ”
In this way, it can explain why the aristocratic youth who met in Pingshui would target themselves, the illegitimate child and the biological father whom they had never met...... I'm really afraid of something.
"Have the two of them met before?" "It's too late to change identities now, Link doesn't want to be recognized.
"No, I've only heard of such a thing, if it weren't for today. I'm also not sure if the rumors are true or not. Orlando patted Link on the shoulder, "Congratulations, you've become a dad." ”
"I'll beat you. "Punching the half-elf who teased him compared to his fist, Link didn't want to be a cheap dad. Moreover, Melville's 'son' does not look at all like wanting a touching scene of father and son recognition, and you can imagine what kind of chickens and dogs will be on the road ahead.
The tension eased, and the merchants and travelers fell asleep again. Link continues the vigil mission. The Dawn Emblem, which was brighter than the campfire not far away, made his eyes hurt, and what made Link feel even more unbearable was that Doyle hadn't slept since the failure of the verbal provocation just now, staring at him through the campfire. Under these circumstances, he could not meditate in a grand manner, so he had to use the dagger he bought at the Valolet market to sharpen wooden arrows and keep vigil until dawn.
When the convoy hits the road again, Link climbs into the last wagon and pretends to sleep to avoid Doyle's sight.
in the space of consciousness. Lorelei's luck in making fun of Link is not ordinary, and choosing a disguised identity will have such a complicated story.
Link couldn't complain, how could he have thought that the seemingly carefree ranger would have such a past. When the matter of Kronberg is settled, let's find a union to change its identity.
What's the new spell you've come up with?] No more teasing Link's situation. Lorelei's main interest was in the new spells that Link had come up with before.
[I'm wondering if I can use pure magic or pure spiritual power to release a beam of energy, instead of designing complex spells, it is better to use simple attacks. Link explained his idea to Lorelei in detail, and although the inspiration came from the game, after careful consideration, he felt that it was very feasible.
In order to achieve more attack power or create magnificent spell effects, the difficulty of casting spells will increase, and the preparation time will be longer, so you will miss the opportunity to dominate the enemy. No matter how powerful it is, what's the use of being killed before the spell hits the opponent?
[You're right, spells didn't have as many complex factions and spells as they do now in the initial stage, and as the level of mages gradually improved, the abilities of humans were gradually declining. So much so that it took a lot of time to prepare, and the enchantment was also made clear to protect oneself during the spell casting. As long as you can kill with one hit, of course, you don't need to follow the routine of ordinary people to accumulate energy and cast spells. 】
Is it really possible...... Affirming Lorelei's affirmation, Link excitedly cast his so-called new spell towards the forest that had long been restored, only to see a laser-like beam of energy shoot out from the palm of his hand, turn his body, and in the fan-shaped strafing angle, the tree composed of spirits was even more damaged than last time, and directly shattered into powder.
This kind of pure energy attack Lorelei is no stranger, and the gods of the heavenly realm attack each other not using some kind of martial arts or magic, but this kind of attack method based on their own strength. Is it accidental, or is the subconscious mind influenced by the column?
Link switched from combustible and not very solid wood to rock, and the hard lithification shattered in the sizzle of energy fluctuations.
[This spell is quite practical, but it is too lethal, so be cautious about using it against creatures other than the undead.] Link said it to himself, as well as to Lorelei and Jafar, hoping that they would remind him not to use this almost dissociative spell on living creatures when he was hot for some objective reasons.
[Weird, where is there a person like you who sets limits for himself everywhere. This is what Lorelei said about Link.
Jafar, who didn't say much, promised that he would supervise. Never let him abuse it.
[That's why I don't like the Natural Alliance.] Luo Relei complained rarely, [Do you only have this one new spell?]
[For the time being, I only think of this, although there are many factions of spells, they are all the same. The difference in essence is not very big. 】
In a meditative state, time always passes quickly, and Jafar reminds Link that it's time for lunch.
As soon as he woke up, he saw Orlando stretching out his hand and patting himself, so he kindly reminded him. For your own safety, it is best not to touch his body while he is sleeping, and be careful with defensive spells.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to eat, Link asks Orlando more about Melville.
"That guy doesn't have any hobbies, like an ascetic, he always cares only about Befast. I also advised Melville to go to the big city, but he insisted on staying in the wilderness, and I don't know what he thought. Speaking of his deceased old friend, Orlando couldn't help but complain, "I am quite similar to you now, both are tendons, and no one will persuade you to change what you decide." ”
"I consciously still want to listen to the ...... of others," Link resolutely refused to admit that he was stubborn.
"Only you think so. "Orlando was about to say something. But suddenly shut up. Following his line of sight, Link saw the carriage in front of him slow down, and then Jafar told him in his consciousness that there were undead in front of him, and there were quite a few of them.
"Undead?" hurriedly stuffed the dry food and water back into the dimensional bag, Link turned out of the carriage and stood on the wooden roof. The view from above is wider, and you can see something with white flowers not far away. There was a rancid and dead smell in the air, and sure enough, it was the undead.
Orlando also flipped up and whistled: "That's a lot." This is no ordinary wandering undead. ”
Link snorted, "It seems that they are specifically here to block us, organized, at least with apprentices leading the team." ”
"What, I'm worried that I won't be able to do it? hehe~ I'll tell you the truth. Melville is the Devil's Archer. Orlando said this sentence in Chinese.
Archers? That's not just elves and half-elves...... What am I thinking?The rules of the DND don't apply to Edgar, Link asked Orlando, since Melville is a magic archer, at least it means that he is a master rank, whether it is an adventurer or a mercenary, he is considered a top master, how could he die in the underground passageway?
"Don't you know? The leader of the team is Cyberline, the Death Knight Leader of the Immortal Empire, the Master Rank has no chance of winning against the Legend Rank, not everyone is like you, with the protection and good luck of the gods. The battle still haunts Orlando, and Melville sacrificed himself in order to get more people to escape.
The topic became heavy, and the situation no longer allowed them to discuss it so leisurely. Link jumped into the first carriage where the merchant was, and Uke was already frightened when he saw so many undead.
"Look at this posture, it's coming at us. "Link is not here to discuss countermeasures with Uk, he is here to tell the merchants, and the other party has made it clear that he wants to deal with them, and he should not have the intention of escaping.
Uk asked why, with a pale face?
"It's all your fault!" Doyle, who came running from a carriage in the back, angrily accused Link of being the outcasts who had fled last night and were associated with the undead.
Link sneered, "If you hadn't been so ruthless, we could have left everyone behind, without hurting their lives and not having to face today's unwarranted disaster." ”
"This is not the time for infighting. Orlando, who caught up, reminded the two of them that the undead were still waiting ahead.
"Let's turn around and run for our lives. "The traveler in the car was limp and his hand pulling the reins was shaking.
"Don't do useless work, there is a mage on the other side, you can track us down at any time, and escaping is only to prolong the time of the next encounter, and it doesn't change at all. "On this issue, Doyle and Link are on the same page, and meet the enemy!
The priestess also got into the carriage, "Since everyone agrees, let's start fighting." ”
"We didn't agree. "Four non-combatants were vomiting blood.
"What about the battle plan? Wrap the carriages in a triangle and guard one each, or press them en masse?" As a supporting bard, Orlando, like the priest, can only support in the rear, and his melee combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the knights.
"I'll be in charge of attracting their firepower, and the support will be left to you. Doyle chose to go it alone, and in his opinion, the other three were all remote.
The priest didn't speak, he should have agreed, and Doyle's gaze swept to Orlando, and saw the half-elf look at Link again, and the already unhappy expression was even more ugly.
"Jafar. It was the first time Link had called out the wolf's name in public, and Jafar jumped out of the third carriage and ran forward.
"Give me a ride before the undead break through his defenses. ”
Orlando furrowed his eyebrows, a little unsure of the meaning of Link's move.
Link didn't explain too much, he stepped directly on the back of the wolf, and after the treatment of nature's technique, Jafar, whose body had recovered, could carry Link's weight, and on the way to run, he felt that his body had become extremely light, and immediately understood that this was the child of nature who performed the wind control technique, reducing his own weight and speeding up its degree.
Seeing that the wolf had already run away, Doyle jumped out of the carriage and caught up with it. (To be continued.)
