Chapter 16: The Red Line Thief (Part II)

The crimson whip had been torn off by the heavily armored swordsman, and the weapon in his hand was Lucas's triangular sword, with a bladed spear on his back. Sika carried Sarah on her back, she still had the huge stick behind her back, Sarah was a little uncomfortable, but there was no way, in this team, only Sika was the healthiest now.

Saleen himself was injured, and it was unrealistic for the magician to carry the swordsman on his back.

The fog of confusion wafted in the cave, hiding the four of them, and the cave soon came to an end, what Pale Red feared did not happen, and the first fleeing team probably had already left the cave and entered the confines of the Swamp of Chaos. The last squad of the vulture mercenary group was not in the cave either, and the sky was bright in front of it, and the faint mist overflowed the cave, but now it became extremely conspicuous.

Salin could only dissipate the fog of confusion and follow cautiously. All the way south, there is no trace of fighting, and there is a mangrove forest in front of it, which is already late autumn, and the amount of water in the mangrove forest has decreased, and most of the rivers with the surname of the season have dried up, revealing wet and muddy ground.

There are also puddles, and there are fish that have difficulty breathing in the shallow water. The huge black cat waited patiently beside it, and the sky was hovering with bob-tailed eagles, making the forest look full of life.

Salin had a strange feeling that after he cleared the fog of bewilderment, his perception did not narrow but expanded. Everything within 100 meters seems to be as clear as the bottom of the eye, a green worm drilled out of the bark, spitting crystal slime, under the leaves, leaf-cutting ants are busy gnawing the leaves with their jaws, leaving the fibrous veins of the leaves.

Salin even found an earth turtle under the ground, this low-level magical beast is good at hiding, and its breathing is so slow that it is impossible to detect, but Salin can sense the heartbeat of this earth turtle, and he can even feel the frequency of the four heartbeats of the earth turtle.

The perception range of a first-level magician is only about ten meters, and it will not be so clear, if Salin is not in the fog of confusion, the perception range is more than 20 meters. After a moment's thought, Salin took off the green ring, and his perception suddenly decreased, as if everything was back in chaos.

Putting on the ring and feeling returned, Saleen curled the corners of his mouth, it was an unexpected surprise. The perceived distance and clarity determine the distance and effect of the spell.

For example, theoretically, Level 1 magic can hit targets up to 20 meters away, but in order to strike with precision and make it impossible for enemies to dodge, magic must be within the range of perception. For an ordinary first-level magician, the perception range is 10 meters, and beyond this distance, the perception begins to blur, and it must be corrected by both eyes.

The distance of 10 meters happens to be the most explosive distance for the swordsman. If the mage can't expand the range of perception, he won't have much of an advantage over the swordsman. However, magic that relies on eye correction cannot have a tracking effect, and it is easy for agile swordsmen to dodge.

Now that Salin's perception has expanded to a range of 100 meters, he doesn't have to worry about lack of perception until he becomes a great magician.

Pale Crimson stopped suddenly, and Saleen stopped at the same time, no longer moving forward.

There was the sound of a fight ahead, and I could tell it by ear. The thump of metal, the sound of heavy breathing, and the groans of pain. Naturally, Salin stood behind a tree, his shoes blackened brown with the mud. He didn't care, and Shika gently lowered Sarah and let her lean against a tree.

Bad luck!

Salin was very depressed in his heart, the fleeing team actually had the same mind as himself, and plunged headlong into the dangerous mangrove forest. Neither the fleeing team nor the tracking team had either magicians or Caucasian warriors, and if they encountered a terror or a soul sucker, they were unlikely to survive.

Knowing this, Salin would rather take a detour.

"Stand back!" shouted from the front, and at the same time, a feathered arrow burst through the air and headed straight for Salin. Salin hid behind a tree, wary, and before he could support the shield of the water ripples, he bent down sharply, almost lying on the ground. The feathered arrow pierced through the trunk of the tree without any suspense, flying over Salin's head.

The trajectory of this arrow is from the top down, and it is extremely difficult to dodge, and if Saleen moves a little less, he is afraid that it will be pierced through the head.

Salin suddenly found this archer, and the joy of raising his perception just now disappeared, after all, his level was too low, and he didn't even find this guy hiding 50 meters away.

Salin's face was cold, and at a distance of 50 meters, his magic could not be accurately located, and he was unable to fight back. If he is a great magician, the magic attack distance is at least 200 meters, and now he can only watch the archer continue to bend the bow, set up the arrow, and aim at the top of the tree.

The archer aimed his weapon at Salin and the others, and shouted: "Red line errand, get out." ”

"What's the red line?" no matter how much Salin reads, he can't know what's trending right now. Pale red lips twitched, and reluctantly said, "It's the Red Line Thieves." ”

"Strange, I seem to have an impression, Shika, do you remember this?"

"Leader, the eighth thief group on the bounty list, killed a bandit with a hundred gold coins, a bandit head red line, and a head worth 20,000 gold coins. You've said it. ”

20,000? Isn't that higher than me? Salin remembered that he was privately wanted by Count Su Fonso, and the number was much worse than this bandit leader, and he vaguely felt in his heart that the Red Line Thieves Group could not be provoked.

Saleen slowly unleashed four shields of water ripples, causing the bubbles that enveloped the magic shield to float around his body, before turning around and pulling out the feathered arrows that shot into the ground behind him. He looked up, looked at the archers in the trees, made a defiant expression, and then grabbed the ends of the feathered arrows with both hands and slammed them hard.

With a click, the feathered arrow was broken, and Salin threw it on the ground and smiled at the archer.

"Master Merlin!" Cang Hong was anxious, although the other party was very arrogant, but he was just driving away his own team, and he didn't really mean to do anything. The Red Line Thieves Group is something he can't afford to provoke, even if it's the entire Falcon Mercenary Group, he may not be able to provoke others.

Salin sneered and said, "His first arrow was intended to kill me, if I was shot to death, do you think he would let you go? ”

Salin said, activating the Mighty Spell on his magic robe and charging at the archer.

The Great Force is a first-level magic, which is a hybrid magic in itself, which can not only increase the user's strength, but also enhance the ability to resist blows, and it is an earth-based magic itself. Saleen relied on the magic core he had to bring with him to activate.

"I don't know if I'm alive or dead!" The archer's face was also hideous, his eyesight was sharp, he could see clearly, the mark on Saleen's magic robe was obvious, this was just a first-class magician.

As long as they keep their distance, archers are a greater threat to first-class mages than assassins.

Saleen's gait was a bit clumsy, and he didn't have wind speed, and he could only move faster than a normal person. The archer's bow immediately stretched to the point of being half full, and an arrow was fired.

Burst!

A bubble shatters, and the shield of water ripples disappears. The archer caught the second arrow in a flowing motion, and the two arrows almost joined together to break the second bubble again.

I see how many magic strings you still have!

When the archer made his third move, he had three feathered arrows between his fingers. Salin's face was calm, and bubbles the size of a water basin appeared in front of him, resisting the archers' beaded archery.

40m, 30m, 20m......

For every 10 meters forward, the archers fired at least 9 arrows, and when Sarin's qi was broken by one, a new bubble was immediately replenished. The archer's face became solemn, this magician, could it be that the great magician was pretending?

No way, the Great Magician's magic shield couldn't be broken by himself! As he thought, the situation was already unfavorable to him. Saleen was close to a distance of 20 meters, he was still in the tree, and he wanted to leave, but he couldn't, because this was already the closest distance that magic could reach, even if Saleen was a real first-level magician, he could start to threaten his life.

The closer he got to the archers, the calmer Saleen's mood became. He even had time to think about his childhood, when he would humbly curry favor with a petty merchant for half a piece of bread. When people beat him, he endured it silently, never knowing what resistance was.

It wasn't until one day, when Jason came to rescue him that he was arrested and put in prison for a gold coin, that Salin suddenly felt that his original life was hell.

Don't live the way you used to live, Salin smiled, spell in both hands, and chanted a rhythmic magic spell aloud. The archer touched the quiver, and when his hand was empty, he found that his feathered arrows had been shot, and when he shot the last feathered arrow, the magician's shield did not increase, as if he knew that he had no more weapons.

Not willing to sit still, the archer lowered his horned bow, drew his short sword from his waist, and threw himself under the tree. He didn't believe that a magician had any hand-to-hand combat abilities. As long as it can be approached within 10 meters......

Burst!

With an unusually dull sound, an ice pick thicker than an arm struck the archer's head, and the head shattered in an instant.

Pale Red was stunned, this blow was beyond his knowledge of magic. The mercenaries of the fourth-level mercenary group are not ignorant of magic, and Saleen uses first-level magic, which can be distinguished by the red. It's just that the power of this level of magic is also too great, and the speed of the huge ice pick is so fast that the pale red naked eye can't see clearly.

This means that as long as Saleen's magic is locked, there is no escape for professionals below level 4.

After this blow, Saleen's form has adjusted to the peak. Secondary spell casting, secondary spell casting, and instant magic, these three advanced techniques were perfectly fused by him, so that the first-level magic exerted the effect of third-level magic.

Looking at the archer whose head was destroyed and fell in front of him, Salin said with some regret - "It's a pity that it's a hundred gold coins!"
