950. Pursuit

The magician had a jet-black steel arrow stuck in his chest, the tip of the arrow leaking out of the middle of his sternum, and although the blood was gurgling outward, it was not the kind of blood that spurted out like cutting the heart tube, and he was so painful that he could barely breathe, and he did not spit blood from his mouth and nose.

Surdak and Gulit glanced at each other, looking at the extinguished temporary portal, the exploded gem pedestal, and the scattered magic crystals, Gulit let out an angry roar, and Brainflower ignited a fireball in the palm of his hand and threw it in the direction where the arrow was flying.

The third jet-black steel arrow 'ding' snapped to the Goethe shield on Surdak's arm.

Samira sprang out nimbly, and with the light of the return ball, saw the second-turn archer who had leapt from the canopy.

The phantom of the Great Elf Windranger appeared from behind him again, and the Sky Strike Bow in his hand also exploded a magic crystal, and countless wind and thunder elements turned the arrow into a bright silver and constantly flashed light sparks, and the moment this arrow was shot, the second-turn archer fell to the ground as if he felt something.

The arrow hit the tree where he was perched, and it fell. Falling lightning fell from mid-air, splitting the tree in the middle and burning violently.

Samira cursed, and ran into the darkness like a she-leopard.

"Boss, it seems that the temporary teleportation circle can't be used, what should we do?"

Gulit stood at the entrance of the cave with a depressed face, asking Surdak, his eyes fixed on the darkness of the woodland outside.

Surdak squatted on the ground, and hurriedly condensed the holy light in the palm of his hand, and a holy light spell fell on the magician, he didn't dare to pull out the steel arrow rashly, he could only cut off the exposed section with a broadsword, fortunately, Esenhard's broadsword was very sharp, and the whole process was very smooth.

Unbutton the shoulders of the magic robes and wrap the arrow wound on the mage's chest with a hemostatic bandage to prevent him from dying of blood loss.

What is certain is that the steel arrow did not hurt the mage's heart, but only passed through the gap between the two lobes of the lungs.

"Take all these magic materials from the ground, let's get out of here, move to a safe place first, and then make plans!"

Surdak spoke quickly.

Gulit and Thea hurriedly began to sort out the materials for these temporary teleportation circles, and Surdak also pulled out a box from his magic belt bag and picked up everything scattered on the ground, even the exploded gem pedestal was packed into the box.

Everything was taken care of, Gulit carried the magician on his shoulders, and Surdak carried Thea on his back.

The two of them were in the night, jumping down from the cliff on the mountainside, along the rock wall level by level, with excellent physical strength and coordination, even if they sometimes stepped on the cliff wall, they could adjust back in time.

Soon falling to the bottom of the canyon, Surdak turned around and whistled, informing Samira, who was chasing the second-turn archers in the forest, to his direction, and went up the river at the bottom of the canyon.

Soon after Surdak left, two black mages hovered over the burning tree on their magic handles.

By this time, Samira had already followed from behind.

The second-turn archer hiding in the shadows couldn't do anything with Samira, and Samira couldn't catch the second-turn archer either.

That guy is like a cunning fox, and his nose can smell danger.

He was a fast runner and familiar with the wooded canyon.

Samira watched as he disappeared into the shadows deep in the woods.

……

Next to the dark and secluded river valley, Surdak carried Thea on his back and stepped on the pebbles upstream.

The two-headed ogre carried the magician, and Gullitham muttered that he had missed dinner time in Bena, and that he must grab that hateful archer, hang him on the barbecue, and smear it with a secret sauce......

The good brother Brainflower checked the magician's condition from time to time, and reminded Surdak: "His condition is not very good...... We had to find a place to help him with his wounds. ”

The three of them walked very fast, and the light at the bottom of the canyon was dim, and Surdak had to take advantage of the sparkling waves of the stream to be able to step on the boulders on the bank of the river with precision.

Thea whispered to Surdak that she could become a mermaid and swim up the stream.

Surdak then put her down.

Thea jumped into the clear stream, and immediately recovered into a mermaid body more than three meters long, the three-colored fins looked very beautiful in the stream, she folded her hands on her chest, silently chanted a spell in her mouth, and raised her hands above her head, her body stood up in the water, her arms held a huge water ball, and slowly sank into the stream.

As the magic pattern circle dimmed, a huge wave suddenly surged in the stream, and the wave appeared with a soft and simple head and strong arms, it gently blinked its transparent blue eyes, glanced at the mermaid Thea beside it, and then nodded slightly.

The next moment, Surdak, Gulitham, and Samira only felt that their feet were being lifted by the waves, and then the waves suddenly accelerated, carrying the water in the river upstream, and the speed of the rush became faster and faster, and there was even a sound of a tsunami.

The rush of the rapids lasted for a quarter of an hour, and from the forked river outside the valley, the waves crashed against the boulders on the shore, like a pair of gentle hands, helping everyone to the rocks, before they turned into a white foam and disappeared.

The receding water returned to the stream, and Thea regained her human form, standing on the rocks with the others, waving gently at the receding waves.

"What's that?" Surdak could feel that there was another form of life contained in the river, and it was not simple magic.

Thea said softly, "They are the water spirits of this river......"

……

The second-turn archer followed behind Surdak's team.

At this time, the river was in a mess under the impact of the waves, and he watched as if a flood had suddenly erupted in the river valley, and continued to chase the team he had left on the dry cloth plane along the river beach with some distress.

He jumped nimbly onto a boulder and continued to chase upstream along the river valley, soon disappearing into the night.

……

Surdak found a secluded tree hole in the mountains.

Gulit very politely invited the owner of the tree cave, a brown bear weighing more than 1,000 pounds, out.

The bear has now been cut into large pieces and sandwiched to the grill of the campfire outside the hole, and the skin has been hung from the branches of the trees to dry.

Surdak performed a sacrificial ritual in the hollow of the tree, this time not only blessed the wounded magician with the blessing of the gods, but also removed the steel arrow that remained in the magician's body, but the magician remained unconscious.

After everyone in the team blessed the 'Blessed Body', Surdak called out Aphrodite again.

When she knew that Surdak was trapped on the dry cloth plane, she looked out of the tree hole and whispered to Surdak:

"I have a way to bring you back, but they can't, this kind of thing is a matter of magic contracts......"

Surdak glanced at the space mage who had fallen into a coma, he still didn't know what his name was, and said, "Whether we can return to Pena City or not, it may depend on him......"

Aphrodite stretched out her hand, looked at Surdak with a puzzled expression, and said, "Then find a way to save him, but I'm not good at treatment, you called me over, shouldn't it be specifically to discuss this matter?" ”

Surdak waved his hand and said, "Of course not, I was trying to get rid of the tail that was following behind, and there was a second-turn archer who was following us all the time, and he was the one who prevented us from leaving." ”

Aphrodite leaned against the entrance of the tree hole, crossed her hands over her chest and looked out of the tree hole, and asked:

"So...... You called me here to help you deal with that archer? ”

"Hmm!" Surdak said.

A hint of triumph appeared on Aphrodite's face, and when she saw Samira sitting beside the hollow of the tree with the Heavenly Strike Bow on her back, she said with a smile:

"We'll leave this to us...... Oh, me and Samira, I have a way to this! ”

……

The second archer pushed aside the bushes in front of him, and with a somewhat dry camouflage on his head, he looked around cautiously, and in front of him was a towering tree, and there was a huge hole under the tree, and the bonfire at the entrance of the cave had been completely extinguished, but the scattered animal bones still showed that someone had stopped here not long ago.

They must have hunted a brown bear...... Looks like the two-headed ogre is pretty edible. ’

The second turn archer thought to himself.

The squad he chases has two-headed ogre warriors, knights, archers, and magicians, and it's almost a perfect squad match, and everyone is excellent.

He followed cautiously, carefully with every step, for fear that he would be too careless and fall into their trap.

The female archer, who was as nimble as a female leopard, was always looking for an opportunity to shoot him, and if the two had the same weapons and equipment, he was not at all afraid, and even thought that he might be able to overpower the other.

But not only did he wear a set of 'Demon Snake's Fang' magic pattern structure, but he also held a 'Heavenly Strike' sharp bow in his hand, which was a bit too powerful for him, after all, no one wanted to walk, and he would be killed by lightning in the next second.

He knew very well that he had killed the magician with one arrow, and the second arrow had destroyed the temporary teleportation circle, leaving a total of five people on the other side in the Ganbu plane.

There were also five figures in the mountain in front of them, and they were walking south along the mountain range.

The second archer did not rush to catch up, he came out of the bushes, first circled the great towering tree, and then looked closely at some of the campfires, and at the mouth of the cave he saw a broken arrow without tail feathers and arrowheads, still stained with blood, which happened to be the one he had shot.

He burrowed into the hollow of the tree and found some blood stains on the ground, and even a shredded bandage to stop the bleeding.

At the moment when he lowered his head, he suddenly felt as if there was someone behind him, he didn't even dare to look back, his body tensed up all of a sudden, like a spring rushing towards the hole, but his hands felt out a hunting bow and an arrow, forcibly twisted his body in the air, twisted his elbow joint at an incredible angle, pulled the bowstring, and shot the steel arrow in his hand behind him.

A string of pleasant chuckles came from behind him......

The arrow flew out and plunged into the wall of the tree hole, but when the second archer turned back, he found that there was no one behind him.

He didn't stop, and his body burrowed out of the hole in the tree.

It's a pity that at this time, I saw that just outside the tree hole, no longer ten meters away, the female bow was half-kneeling in the glade, holding the heavenly strike bow in her hand, and she had already pulled the bowstring and aimed it at his chest.

His body was as light as a swift, and the moment he swooped out of the hole, he turned back and hid himself in the empty hollow of the tree.

At this moment, he was inexplicably horrified, and he clearly saw that all five people on the other side had left, so he ran over to investigate.

How did the female archer end up here?

But it wasn't Samira, who was crouching outside the hollow of the tree with her bow and arrow, but the second strange laugh coming from the hollow, and he glanced in horror in the direction where the sound sounded.

It is the top of the black tree hole......

A giant eyeball with a diameter of more than a meter hung at the top of the tree hole, constantly moving its transparent eyelids, staring at him without blinking.

A pair of golden eagle eyes emerged from behind the second-turn archer, and he shot an arrow at the eyeball of the tree hole decisively.

And the second-turn archer also immediately stepped back, he stepped on the ground hard, and the moment his back was against the wall of the tree hole, he burst out with great force, and forced the one-foot-thick tree hole wall out of a big hole, and his whole person also relied on this momentum to drill out.

It's just that he saw that eyeball after all, and he only felt that at this moment, he felt dizzy and dizzy......

The eyeballs hanging on the top of the tree hole also seemed to have punctured the water balloon, and it fell down with a 'bang', and the viscous liquid flowed to the ground.

Aphrodite floated behind her eyeballs, a pair of transparent insect wings giving her the ability to stay in the air, and the steel arrow flew past her cheek, cutting off a strand of her hair, and a scratch appeared on the side of the Mithril mask.

If she hadn't subconsciously twisted her head, I'm afraid she would have been nailed to the top of the tree hole at this moment......

Samira squatted outside, waiting for the second-turn archer to come out of it, but he didn't expect that he would crash through the wall of the tree hole, and broke through the dead corner where his heavenly bow couldn't shoot, and rushed out at once.

She took two steps forward, and in a hurry, she drew her bow and shot the arrows that landed on it.

The second-turn archer staggered a little, as if he hadn't noticed the flying arrows.

By the time he came to his senses, it was too late to dodge the arrows.

He could only twist his body as much as he could, and the two feathered arrows plunged into his left shoulder, and the other arrow drilled through his ribs, leaving only a scratch on the left side of his abdomen, and a finger hole appeared in the leather jacket.

The second-turn archers did not dare to stay any longer, and ran desperately towards the densest bushes of the woods.

It's just that his mind is still a little groggy at this moment.

Surdak emerged from behind a tree, his shield slamming into his face.

The second-turn archer barely dodged, grabbing a dagger and backhanding Surdak.

'Ding' sound, stuck to the shield.

Surdak kicked the big in the second turn archer. On his legs, he could even hear bones breaking......

The second-turn archer turned around and ran forward without hindrance.

With the sound of the howling wind, a big stick slammed into the chest of the second-turn archer, and the second-turn archer was like a sandbag, and his whole body immediately changed direction and flew out towards the rear......

The two-headed ogre glanced innocently from behind the tree, and Gullitham and his good brother Brainflower quarreled again:

"I'll just say that you control the power, and you still don't listen, look at what you've smashed people into now......"
