CHAPTER XX: CATO 9
"If Wendell had seen her magic, he would have cried and begged her to learn. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Oxon quipped, as if the crisis of the skeleton had vanished.
The appearance of the red-robed woman did make everyone breathe a sigh of relief, but Cato didn't think she could solve it all. He watched intently as the woman attacked the skeletal beast, and even though she was powerful enough to control an exaggerated flame, her messy pace and unskillful rude slashes exposed her lacklustre swordsmanship, and the enemies she faced were unmatched in terms of destructiveness, vitality, and any other aspect.
"Boom-" The skeleton beast slammed into the ground with a punch, almost shattering the red-robed woman, if she hadn't turned into flames at the critical moment, I am afraid that she would have spent her life in the pit caused by the hammer. The skeleton continued to swing its fists frantically, and it seemed that the red-robed woman's fire spell had not done much substantial damage to it except for burning its bones black.
"Ahh
"Think of a way, Gatu. Oxon drew his weapon again, leaning his back against Cato and urged, "Either rush over or kill back, the guys are waiting for your instructions." ”
Cato gritted his teeth and hesitated. If he returned to the Golden Throne, the hard work of the road would be in vain, and Tracy would have to find a new place to stay, and he would have to stay far away from the beast's territory. It would be a big gamble, and he couldn't guarantee that everyone would get back to the ship safely, that he would find a better cliff to set up camp on, or that no other skeleton would harass their campsite. On the other hand, helping the red-robed woman is equally dangerous, one careless will lose his life, and he really can't ask everyone to take risks with him.
"Oxen, please take everyone to stay here. Cato grasped the Sunstrider's command, and he hurried to the battlefield where the red-robed woman fought the skeleton beast, determined to fight to the death.
Probably because of the influence of the torrential rain, or the time for casting the spell was too long, the flames controlled by the red-robed woman gradually weakened, and the weakness of physical skills was immediately exposed. She was tired of running left and right to dodge the fists of the skeleton beasts, and gradually reduced the frequency of active attacks, and the blades in her hands were useless.
"How well do you know this thing?" cried Cato, deftly rounding the trunks of trees and deep pits of various sizes, and ran to the hind limbs of the wreck, and with a sudden force, he slashed two tiny bones with a single sword.
"I've killed a few weaker than it, what do you want to do?" replied the red-robed woman in a loud voice.
"That's good!" Cato took advantage of the beast's turn to leave another blow on its other hind leg. "I'm here to attract it, you find a chance to slaughter it!"
The beast let out a scream, angrily kicked its wounded hind legs twice, and fluttered to turn and attack Cato, while sweeping its tail towards the red-robed woman, but both of them were lucky enough to escape. Cato began to run around the beast, and the big guy with a small mind followed him in circles, and several times opened his huge jaw to bite the agile paladin, completely forgetting the existence of the red-robed woman.
"Hurry up! I'm wearing armor, and I can't run!"
"Don't worry, I'm looking for a chance!"
