Sherman's gaze first looked at Paine lying on the ground, then swept over Yuan Ye, who was a little overwhelmed, and finally stopped at Link.
After a violent cough, Sherman swung his staff again, and several red beasts emerged from the flames, the size of calves, with sharp teeth and claws, and a strong smell of sulfur. It is a demon dog, the highest level of demonic beast among low-level demons.
The sound of barking and metal colliding was heard in the hall outside, and the mercenaries in the secret room were stunned by the scene in front of them. They are just ordinary mercenaries, some have even fought against mages, and they are also mid-level mages who can summon otherworldly creatures.
"The healing technique should have healed your wounds, take up arms. Link didn't look back, throwing the rattan shield restrained by the flames to Yuan Ye, the weakest, "Go to the back and stand and sing songs that will boost morale." ”
Yuan Ye, who finally came back to his senses, held the rattan shield and shrank to the back, plucked the mandolin and hummed, the tone without lyrics was brisk, dispelling the mercenary's timidity. Paine picked up the fallen dagger and lurked back into the shadows.
To the bard's song, the mercenaries in the form of Claude gather in a semicircle against the wall to defend themselves against the demon dogs that attack in turn.
Link held the sword in one hand and looked at Sherman, who coughed from time to time. He also had no experience fighting mages, and from the novice stage, he trained with physical classes.
At this time, Link also hoped that the illusion was really a game, at least he could still see the opponent's health bar and attributes or something, instead of this...... Yes, I can use Revelation!
The magic moved quietly, and a hollow and vague voice appeared in Link's head.
[Expert Summoner.] 】
It's terrible, I'm just a veteran rank, even the most advanced warrior is only LV5, according to the mage's algorithm, the expert level is at least 1o or above, how to fight twice the difference?
The only thing Link is thankful for is that the young acolyte outside is friend and foe.
Let's try to see if the combination of swordsmanship + magic works......
Link first added tree skin and swift wind to himself, and a spurt rushed to Sherman, swept through the air with a black iron sword, and slashed with it!
The ground beside Sherman was swept away with a few deep marks, and the invisible mana shield once again blocked Link's attack, but just as the corners of his mouth were smiling, a row of spikes suddenly bulged on the ground. Sherman hurriedly teleported, and before he could stand on his feet, a dark shadow burst out from behind him, and the assassin did not miss this time, cutting several deep wounds on Sherman's back.
It worked!
Link secretly rejoiced that he was right. Sherman's mana shield can block physical and magical attacks separately, but it can't be both. And it takes time to open, he first lured Sherman to open the physical shield with a purely physical warrior skill, and then used the magic earth spear to raid, and the unprepared Sherman could only use teleportation to dodge, which gave Paine a chance to act at the opportunity. Luckily, Paine was smart enough, and he knew Link's intentions just by hiding from the sidelines, and he didn't have this opportunity to change to Yuan Ye.
"Woo......" Sherman groaned in pain as the flames in the doorway rushed in and enveloped him, blocking Link and Paine's flanks. The boy trapped in the hall walked in, and cut melons and vegetables to solve the demon dog that had caused the mercenaries to suffer, and his hand was so exposed that Paine, who was close to the door, moved towards Link.
Another heart-rending cough, and Sherman seemed to cough out all his lungs.
"Emissary of Isol. Through the human-tall flames, his eyes stared straight at Link, "When did the Natural Alliance target me?"
There are many names for the child of nature, and this is the most well-known one.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Link.
"It starts with you selling your soul to death. Link, of course, didn't know the exact time, so he could only bluff Sherman with such a vague answer.
Sherman's pant was like pulling a bellows, but he wanted to laugh. The boy let out a loud shout and lunged at him. The flame that enveloped Sherman seemed to suddenly come to life, and it turned into a fiery snake in a moment of contraction, opening its mouth to swallow at the boy.
The young man did not panic, and with a sword in both hands, he cut the snake body in two. Before the mercenaries who were watching from the sidelines could cheer, they saw the scattered flames split into two snakes.
"Tsk~ He ran away. The boy squinted and saw that Sherman was gone, leaving only a portal that was almost an hour, and he glared at Link angrily, scolding why he had let Sherman escape.
I'll wipe it, it's clear that you made trouble to let him escape, okay.
Link stared at the fiery serpent split in half with a speechless expression, elementals could not win with physical attacks, and he had not yet mastered the skills to banish summoned creatures. Even if the Lifeweaver can cast spells beyond the ranks, it is impossible to cast too many skills that show their own strength.
Seeing that the young man was entangled with the fire snake again, Link hurriedly shouted to stop, but unfortunately it was still a step too late, and the fire snake was divided into two after it landed, although it became thinner, but the power was not reduced.
"Shut up, do you think I want to?" the boy shouted angrily, of course he knew that the more he hit, the more he could do it, but at the moment he had no other way.
As the fire snakes became more and more divided, the whole chamber was like an oven.
"Hurry up, we won't last long. Yuan Ye was sweating like pulp, his clothes were all glued to his body, and if they continued to stalemate like this, even if they were not killed by the fire snake, they would be killed by heat.
There were no shadows, and the physical attacks didn't work, Paine retreated to the mercenary pile, he didn't speak, but it wasn't much better, the temperature in the room was almost beyond the limit of what humans could handle.
The mercenaries were so hot that they ran towards the door despite Claude's obstruction, trying to escape between the boy's fight with the fiery snake. The scattered fire snakes suddenly turned their heads at the same time, spitting out blazing flames, instantly burning the mercenaries who stepped out of the secret room into charcoal.
The rest of the people were immediately frightened and shrank back, and the fire snake actually stopped attacking.
The boy's face changed slightly, "Sherman thinks we're all dying here, find a way!" The last sentence was said to Link, and seeing that he didn't say anything, the boy yelled at him angrily.
"Now only you can save everyone and find a way to break his method of cause and effect. ”
It turned out to be the law of cause and effect, no wonder it only targets those who leave the secret room. Link doesn't know much about the law of cause and effect, only that it is an extremely powerful spell, like prophecy, setting cause and effect in advance, if you can't find the right way to crack it, even if it is a veteran-level cause and effect, you can kill an expert or even a master-level master. However, the law of cause and effect is also a double-edged sword, and if used incorrectly, it will not only fail to get rid of the enemy, but may also cause backlash.
Link didn't want to sit still, but it was a pity that Apocalypse could only use it once a day. If we don't find the 'cause' set by Sherman, these people will all have to die here, and even if Jafar is summoned, it will be useless.
Rows of stalagmites emerge from the ground, and their target is not a fiery serpent, but a small, one-man secret door. The entire room shook from the blow, and the fiery serpent spewed flames at the lifeless stalagmites, affected by the law of cause and effect.
Sure enough, let's fight for character......
Link puts all his bets on over-tier spell casting, sacrificing the day's spell slot and summoning earth elementals.
In order to embolden himself and let others know, he deliberately shouted out after always being silent.
"Earth Elemental Summons!" a giant earth giant emerges from the ground, directly supporting and deforming the structure built underground.
"Hey~ Are you crazy......?
Before Yuan Ye finished speaking, he was buried by the sand and stones that fell from his head. The secret room collapsed, but the fire snake that had been raging suddenly wilted, shrinking smaller and smaller until it was completely extinguished.
"Ahh He looked up and saw that it was the earth elemental that Link had summoned to block the collapsing sand for them with his body.
"Emissary of Isol!" the disgruntled young man questioned Link in a disgruntled voice, "Sherman is the lord of Aiden, and you have crossed the line in this matter. ”
"By making trouble on the borders of the pillars of the earth, the League of Nature has the right to punish him. "Hel in the form of a giant eagle descended from the sky, and his size, which was larger than the earth elemental, was more intimidating.
The boy tugged at the corners of his mouth, and finally left with a cold snort.
Sherman fled. The mission was a failure, and Link waited to be taught a lesson by Hull, but he didn't say anything, and only asked the druids, who arrived later, to clean up the collapsed underground base.
"Are you all right?" Link turned around and stretched out his hand to help Yuan Ye up, but he knocked him off.
"I always thought you were a fighter. Yuan Ye, who had always been giggling, was angry with Lin Ke for the first time, and when he saw that he was silent, he turned around and walked in the direction of River Valley Town.
"Don't worry, I'll advise him. Paine patted Link on the shoulder and comforted him, catching up with Yuan Ye who was striding forward.
"Why is it so hot?"
"He's been hiding it from me!"
As the two of them spoke, Hull turned into a human form, and following his line of sight, Link looked at the boots on his feet, almost forgetting about it.
"I found the ...... below" Isn't the Destiny Fairy only visible to those who are closely related to it?, why does the Birdman keep staring at these broken boots?
"I've seen it before, the relic of the former Malik Oracle, with a strange name, the Lucky Gold Coins. ”
"What?" is Malik's relic? He had always thought that gold coins were real gold coins, how could it be something that didn't match at all like boots.
Wait a minute! I've taken the relic, isn't Paine's mission in vain?
The thought of Yuan Ye gave Link a headache, how to explain it to them.
"Sherman dragged his seriously ill body to find the holy relics, there must be an ulterior insider, you go back immediately. Catch the evidence of his collusion with the undead before the Dawn Cult. Hull reached out and poked, and the earth elemental that Link summoned turned into a pile of sand.
"That young man just now is from the Dawn Church, right?, they are also in the Order camp, why are they acting hostile to the Natural Alliance?"
"The Guardian is on the side of order, but the Child of Nature itself is both order and chaos. ”
"Just because of this?" ~ Even if Edgar's camp is not neutral, it won't be like this, right?
"Morning light and late night are opposing gods, one is extremely good and the other is extremely evil, you will have less contact with them in the future, they are all fanatical and brainless madmen. Hull doesn't think highly of the Dawn Sect and urges Link to hurry back.
