Chapter 24: The Fire-Blooded Dwarf 02

Dwarven pursuers

A few days ago, I swore that the dwarves would burn as much as they came, but at this time, I was given a headache by the dwarves' pursuers, which is the so-called second slap in the face.

Indeed, if the dwarves were to face each other one by one, Sumesmart could effortlessly burn them down before they even got close.

But in the past few days, the methods of dwarven attacks can be said to be endless, so that the group is overwhelmed. Command a large amount of water to consume, cast golems while the group is resting, raid from the ground at night, and bombard from afar...... In short, it's not a head-to-head showdown.

I really didn't expect the dwarves to be able to do this kind of operation, probably this is the lesson they learned from fighting strong enemies in the past, and they actually saw the shadow of guerrilla warfare from it.

"I haven't rested much in the past few days, I'm so tired......

The closer you get to the core, the more frequent the attacks become. This makes Xi Xiangyu have to complain, you can all catch up, and stop us from doing anything, go and get the demigod directly. But I think there are already dwarves who have gone to fetch them, and most of these attackers have come to slow them down.

In the face of a large number of unprepared attacks, there are ways to deal with it...... That is to rely entirely on the automatic enemy seeking device of Happy Encounter. With the happy encounter, the team responded before the attack, so there was almost no attrition.

But so far, Xixiang has not rested for more than four consecutive hours for three days, but fortunately, his body has recovered, otherwise he would have been exhausted.

"Rest while you can, and I'll wake you up as soon as anything happens. ”

"No, I'm going to have to keep an eye on them when they're about to attack. Ah, that's enough, I'll build satellites in the future, and I'll definitely blow up the dog's head of this kind of person. 」

In the face of endless harassment, happy encounters have long been unbearable. But thinking that in fact, others have to work harder than him, and he has no position to complain about anything.

"At this rate, how long will it be before we get to the core?"

"If nothing else, the day after tomorrow, the dwarves are well-equipped, and they are likely to have arrived. But they are not the right ones, and they should not be able to get them right away, so we still have time. 」

But when the happy meeting was spoken, I immediately regretted it.

"(No, it's called a flag, and at this time it should be said that the dwarves have a great advantage.) )」

"That means that we will definitely have a conflict with them then, and if we win, can we not kill them all? After all, it is only because of interests that the conflict is caused, and there is no deep hatred between us. ”

Joy can feel that Eren is serious, she is genuinely worried about the dwarves.

"At this time, you usually think that the other party is the unreasonable one, right, but it's rare for someone like you to be like you...... I promise you to stop the red dragon when the time comes. 」

"But you're too optimistic, and the dwarves still have the upper hand. If we are not careful, they will get the treasure first, and then our lives will be like candles in the wind, and it will be the dwarves' turn to think about whether to kill us all. 」

"What are you talking about, I don't believe you can't escape with us, you're the best at escaping from battle. ”

Alan gently patted the happy meeting on the shoulder twice, and then sent warmth around the camp.

"If I'm the only one who wants to escape, it's a matter of minutes......

After setting up camp, the group was attacked by the dwarves without even eating dinner, thanks to the advance notice of the happy encounter, otherwise the tired people would probably have to pay a heavy loss.

After nightfall, the dwarves attacked again while the people were sleeping. Of course, this time it was also known in advance and prompted, but the dwarf's attack was obviously stronger than ever.

It is customary for the dwarves to bombard several specially made golems from a distance, but the cannonballs detonate with electromagnetic cannons while they are still flying.

The camp is surrounded by a large number of water elementals, and each lizardman warrior has to deal with more than 9 water elementals. Gradually, the lizardmen warriors formed a circle with the dragon and lion, and the kobold warlock inside.

The red dragon Sumesmart has reverted back to its original form, flying around the battlefield, burning massive amounts of water elementals with its dragon's breath. Wherever he flew, a gust of air swept up into the sky, sending all the water elementals that hadn't been burned dry into the sky.

At this time, Xi Xiangyu was sitting on the flying carpet and spinning in the sky, and there was such a big target as Sumersmart, who was hardly found to be a target...... It's weird.

This guy has low combat effectiveness, but the trouble he brings to the enemy is one of the best. Not to mention how many times his ability to seek enemies as a radar has destroyed the dwarves' chances of being able to annihilate them, his auxiliary ability is even more of a headache for the dwarves. Every time the water elemental wants to kill the lizardmen, he rushes to help, and even uses spells to heal the wounded, in addition to using wall spells and control spells from time to time to interfere with vision and movement. In addition, the weapon in the hand of Xi Xiangyu can almost kill the golem in an instant, and it can also make the cannonball explode in advance in a position far from reaching the enemy, and this person is the most annoying.

Therefore, as long as the dwarves find out that they are happy to meet, the red dragon doesn't care, it's just the guy who keeps making trouble and flying around.

However, it was obvious that the Joy Encounter was not so easy to shoot down, and in order to avoid a rollover, he always brought the team's highest-ranking spellcaster, Allen, with him.

Every shell of the electromagnetic cannon is sky-high, and it is impossible to use the electromagnetic cannon to fight miscellaneous soldiers. Allen's mana as the main caster is very precious, and it can't be consumed needlessly. Therefore, to deal with these water elements, you can only rely on these lizardman warriors who only consume physical strength and the red dragon dragon breath with their own reactor.

It didn't take long for the warriors on the ground to form a small circle and the dwarves began to drop golems. A large number of golems were dropped from the sky and smashed at ground forces that were close together. At this time, he was still fighting with the golems in the distance, but he didn't have the energy to deal with it, and this time the dwarves brought more troops than the previous ones combined.

"Alan, eye of the hurricane. 」

After giving Allen a hint, Xi Xiangyu hurriedly distracted and manipulated the flying carpet to fly towards the gathered (surrounded) friends.

Eye of the Hurricane

Protection System [Air]

Level: Druid 4

Spell Ingredients: V, S

Cast Time: Standard Action

Distance: 40 feet

Area of Influence: A 40-foot radius centered on you, and a 10-foot radius of a safe area centered on you

Duration: 1 round per level

Exemption Test: Failure to pass the test if you pass the test for tenacity;

Spell Resistance: Yes

This spell allows you to create a miniature storm to provide protection, but the spell has no effect after a certain distance away from you.

The storm creates a force equal to the wind of a hurricane and revolves around you. Normal ranged weapons have no effect on you, and heavy throwing weapons such as siege weapons or rocks thrown by giants have a -8 drawdown.

The movement of mobs within the spell area depends on their size and whether they are flying or not. Creatures must be exempted at the beginning of each round.

Medium-sized or smaller creatures that fail to be exempted will be pushed 1D4X10 feet away from the Eye of the Storm and take 1D4 non-lethal damage per 10 feet. The flying creature is blown back to 2d6×10 feet and takes 2d6 non-lethal damage.

Large mobs that fail to be exempted will be blown to the ground, and flying mobs will be blown back to 1d6×10 feet.

Oversized creatures that fail to be exempted will be suppressed by strong winds, and flying creatures will be blown back to 1d6×5 feet.

Giant or super-giant mobs are not affected by strong winds and can move normally.

Creatures in the area, even if they successfully pass the exemption, will still have to be re-tested at the start of a new round or after re-entering the storm.

The area of the spell is centered on you, and if you move, the storm will move with you and always center you. If other creatures are in the eye of the storm when you cast a sorcery, they need to do an immunity check after you move and bring them into the storm's range to avoid the effects described above. If you move the storm area to a tile that other creatures already occupy, they will be exempt at the start of the next round.
