Chapter 17: The Blue Wolf (2-in-1)
The withered branches that obscured her vision were torn to pieces by the wind, and Arcanis summoned flames, which bloomed in the air, and two magical crossbow arrows pierced through the flames and drove straight into her monstrous left arm. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info The hungry wolf didn't feel any pain at all, she fell to the ground and rolled on the ground a few times. Her head hit the sturdy iron boots, and she quickly stood up to see that it was a struggling vulture, and the branches were wrapped around his neck, and the sharp branches had been red with blood.
Several severed branches lay at his feet, and he was like a worm that had escaped from a cobweb. Arcanis, of course, wouldn't give him a chance, and she immediately grabbed the blade with her backhand, slicing the artery in his thigh, and blood gushing down like a spring. The elemental warrior shuddered, and Arcanis slashed off his wrist, grabbing his sword in his monstrous left hand. The left sword and the right blade slashed at the other trapped elemental warriors like a vegetable.
This is another trap, and the Arcanis landing is a new trap in which the young vulture, eager to kill the enemy, accidentally falls into it like a small worm that pounces on a spider's web. They were trapped, and the prey became hunters instead, killing them all.
Just as Arcanis cut off her bare feet and caught in the vulture's head, blue lightning pounced on her like a number of dancing vipers, and she instinctively rolled to the ground, dodging the disaster. The headless vultures were reduced to scorched corpses in the lightning chain. The lightning chain passed through it, and the dead trees behind it crackled with a chaotic sound, green smoke rose and dozens of branches fell.
Wave after wave of green light shone on her, and the fireballs fired by the wind blade and wand all shot at her. The blue wolf showed her excellent physical coordination and amazing instincts, and she even crawled and rolled behind a dead tree, and after escaping the green light and hiding into the shadows, she realized that she was only missing two fingers, both of which were left-handed.
All the dead trees that moved were reduced to splinters and charcoal, and Arcanis felt as if her brain was about to crack, and she could no longer control a dead tree.
The strength of the vulture team was beyond her imagination, even if she calculated it twice, they relied on their hard power to survive, and they also brought her a lot of wounds, and also calmed down the hungry wolf.
She thought as she pulled two crossbow arrows off her left arm. Kazkaz gave her left arm, not a part of her, even if it was pierced by a crossbow arrow, it didn't hurt at all, but it didn't affect her movement at all, like this monster-like left hand, which didn't rely on muscles and tendons to move.
For a moment, the hotly beaten woods fell silent, and Arcanis wandered around, looking for an opportunity to strike.
On the ground, burning twigs lit the dead leaves, illuminating several corpses hanging from the canopy along with a few burning trees, red blood dripping from the bruised corpses.
The four survivors were in this Shura hell, looking around vigilantly, and the team members on the side looked at the captain with pleading.
Filled with anger, the captain reluctantly pulled out the last signal baton, pointed to the sky and shouted into the darkness:
"I know you want to kill us!
His tone was full of unwillingness, because there was only a four-man vulture squad left, and they lost the ability to actively pursue the enemy. If a distress signal is fired, the enemy who is close at hand will surely flee. If she doesn't send a distress signal, the enemy will definitely strike again, and then there will be a chance to take her down.
What a pity, he clenched his teeth, and his tall body trembled with anger. Borui longs to kill the enemy with his own hands, to cut off her flesh little by little, and make her die a painful death.
The team he led suffered heavy losses, and he might be fired afterwards, forever losing his chance for revenge. However, he could not ignore the pleas of his comrades.
"You'll never stand a chance! Fuck you!"
He roared, his signal rod trembling.
"Help me, dear.."
The familiar female voice sounded, and Borui was stunned, and slowly turned his head to look at the bloodiest place in the Shura field. Ruili under the dead tree was also the corpse of his fiancΓ©e, and she slowly stood up like a marionette. All around her was blood dripping from the corpses of his comrades.
"Captain, don't be fooled! This is a trap for the followers of the despicable gods!"
Ruili stretched out her hands to him, as if begging for his help, her stiff face twitching,
"She enslaves our souls... Help me, dear.. I'm in a lot of pain."
Her voice was hoarse and strange, and after taking a step, she fell to the ground motionless.
"Fuck you!" the captain was furious, he put the signal baton back on his waist, and yelled, "Didn't you want to kill us?
"Hehehehehe. Arcanis felt her mind explode, and she sneered as she leaned back against the tree, she succeeded in dominating the enemy with hatred, "The souls of your companions and comrades will be driven by me. β
Silent wind elemental magic slashed at the source of the sound, the blue wolf underestimated the reaction speed of the enemy, and the sound of footsteps of dead leaves being trampled was heard in the forest, and they used their magic to catch the panicked footsteps. Then fire at the sound of footsteps.
"Ah!!h
The crossbowman let out a scream, slashing at his neck with a curved blade, and staring incredulously at Arcanis at his side. They were clearly standing in the open area, and they were obviously wearing the "hidden magic lamp" on their bodies, why didn't the green light shine on her? And whose footsteps were they?
"Only rookies have a voice. β
The cunning blue wolf muttered, drew his blade, and leaped towards the elemental mage, sword after blade straight at his vital parts. Suddenly, a strong wind slammed into her weapon, and the elemental mage's talisman strong wind resisted her attack. The legendary weapon counteracted the strong wind, but the mage turned and glared at the attacker, pushing a wall of wind with both hands and slamming it into Arcanis's thin body, sending her blasted out and slammed into the tree.
The elemental mage channeled the strong wind, crushing the hungry wolf against the tree. Arcanis gritted her teeth, and the strong wind imprinted her cloak on the tree, filling her ears with the whirring sound of the wind. She stared at the elemental mage gritting her teeth, and in a second, maybe a second and a half, the other two would nail her to the tree, or dismantle her.
"Whoosh!"
A bolt of crossbow shot the mage in the back of the neck with unmistaken accuracy, and he fell slowly with wide eyes. The bolt was plucked from Arcanis' left hand, and she turned the dead branch into a bouncy string, using wood as a body to make a deadly, controllable crossbow.
Arcanis pulled out the bolt from her face, and she almost shot herself, but luckily she didn't change the position of the mage, she only had to fine-tune it.
"That's fair, isn't it?"
The hungry blue wolf looked at the two of them and smiled.
The pockmarked shape of her face has long been washed away, and the sword scar that spans her entire face makes her whole person look like a merciless blizzard.
"Whoosh!"
A bolt of arrows came at her, and Arcanis raised her curved blade, and the bolt shot straight at her face was deflected by the magical force, grazing her face and flying in a trail of blood.
"Yes, it's symmetrical. β
Arcanis wiped the right side of his face and said.
With a battle cry, Borui and his comrades rushed towards Arcanis.
It was a real fight, no trickery, no conspiracy, swords and swords clashing. Flames poured out of the blade and engulfed towards Arcanis. She cleaved through the blazing flames, dancing to the attack as the two of them struck her.
The elemental warriors of the Ruofia Empire possess amazing destructive power, and they can easily defeat an army of hundreds of ordinary people. But in the face of strong-willed, battle-hardened traditional warriors, their combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced.
It can burn a dozen people into charcoal and melt some metal elemental fireballs, but it can't burn a single hair of the agile thief. It can shake the wind wall of the city gate, but it can't shake a strong, tower-holding warrior. The elemental magic with its destructive power was like child's play in front of them.
After hundreds of years of research, Imperial scholars believe that traditional warriors(1) can rely on tenacity to reduce the damage of elemental spells. However, it is difficult for elemental warriors who follow the path of the elements to do so, and in short, it is easier for traditional warriors to be exempt from elemental magic than traditional magic. (It's a magical thing.) οΌβ‘
Arcanis, on the other hand, had turned her back on the Elemental Way on her way of escape, and her elemental skills had stalled, but with the return of her memories, she had become a deadly warrior.
Arcarnes dodged the flame-stained sword again, a strand of severed white hair turning to ashes, and she slid down to the crossbowman's side with a sliding step. The blade of the sword sliced through the crossbowman's defenses - he had already dropped it, and the legendary curved blade sliced straight under his ribs, like a butcher's butcher's knife, easily slicing through his inlaid armor and into his flesh.
The crossbowman drew his short sword and stabbed it in the ribs, and with years of training, he stabbed it in the middle of the ribs. But it met resistance, and the blade was stuck in the bone. The hungry wolf endured the pain, turned around, and used the sharp blade to cut his wrist.
The crossbowman fell, and the only two men were facing each other, and Borui was panting, sweat streaming down his cheeks despite the winter. And Arcanis had a calm expression, showing no signs of tiredness.
She pulled out the dagger stuck in her ribs and said in a regretful tone, "Your companion almost killed me, but unfortunately my ribs have already been connected." β
"Monster!
Arcanis smiled wryly, "You forced it. β
As the fight began, blood dripping from Borui's wounds, his body gradually began to weaken, and Arcanis's eyes became more and more blurry. She had superhuman stamina, and the wounds on her body didn't bleed, and if it weren't for the blood she saw from the blade of the sword in the stab, he would have doubted that Arcanis didn't have blood.
Eventually, Arcanis slashed Borui to the ground, stabbing his kidneys through the cracks in his armor, and then pulling them out with a thud.
Borui fell to his knees, covered the wound on his waist with his iron gloved hand, and found that the wound was bigger than the palm of his hand, so he gave up. He pulled out his wand and pronounced the starting words, and the target was not Arcarnes, but the corpse of the hound, and the green acid ball flooded the hound, and in a moment the hound the size of a ten-year-old child was left with a white skeleton.
"You hate dogs too?"
"Nope. Borui couldn't hold it anymore and fell to the ground, "You're hungry, I can hear the cry of your stomach and see the longing in your eyes." β
"I think the food the Empire has given you should taste good. β
"It's a pity. Borui smiled, "We only brought supper, and we ate more than half of it. Ahem... You must be hungry.... Ahem... I have long thought about the consequences of defeat .... Brought very little food with me before departure... Alina, don't want anything out of us. β
Arcanis' face changed, her stomach crumbling together with hunger.
"It's a vulture, it's a fitting nickname. Why didn't you think about changing your name?"
β.. Hehe... β
"Huh. Arcanis sneered, and she pulled off the blood-stained wedding ring on her left hand, walked over to Bory, and slashed off his arm with two slashes. Leaned down, looked at him with a pale face, and threw the blood-stained wedding ring in front of him.
"I said it. She said, with a hungry green glint in her eyes, "The empire forced me to be a monster, and I changed my rhetoric to force me to be a man-eating monster." β
Borui didn't speak.
"I think your partner's boobs may taste good and be nutritious. Besides, a woman's meat should be more tender than that of a group of rough men. By the way, out of humanitarian reasons, let me repeat to you the last words of your partner. She imitated her fiancΓ©e's voice, "Ha!
Bory's eyes widened as he was about to say something. Arcarnes ended his life with a single blow, and the expression of regret, fear, and pain on his face was forever fixed in this moment.
She didn't have any food on her, she had grown limbs and fought too much, and if she didn't eat, she would starve to death. The hungry wolf straightened up and looked at the corpses around him.....
Half an hour later, a fire broke out in the woods, and the corpses turned into black smoke in the raging fire, rising into the starry sky and turning into snow along with the rest of the black smoke.
Arcarnes huggs a lame Melly, who has just managed to attract the fire of the vultures, and people tend to look down on cats and rely too much on magic items, such as the Hidden Magic Lamp. How can a little green light make the stealth master appear?
The full-bellied blue wolf stuffed little Ramon's body into her own extradimensional pocket, and she watched the cavalry rushing towards the burning woods. Look up at the starry sky where a little snow falls.
"It's just a game...."
She remembered the bits and pieces of getting along with Ramon's father and son, and remembered the innocent face of little Ramon.
Arcanis felt his anger rising, and there seemed to be a knife between his chest and abdomen. It's not over yet!
She didn't want to embark on the road of fleeing to the West, and continued the embarrassing path of escape. She wondered why the empire had resorted to massacres to refugees, and why they had treated their own people like seeds, leaving the good ones and throwing away the bad ones and burning them.
Why? Why do you do such a cruel thing?
"There will come a time when the Empire will regret messing with me. β
She whispered, disappearing into the cold wind. The cold wind blowing towards the city of Carmore will bring an angry avenger to the city, and all those who work with Operation Cleanup will not escape the deadly blade in the shadows, and all the dirty secrets buried deep under the corpses will be dug up by the scimitar.
They will be miserable because they have provoked Arkanis.
(1) Traditional warrior: The name of the Ruofia Empire refers to a warrior who does not follow the path of the elements.
(2) Very magical things: For example, the reflex dodge mastery in DND can be unscathed in many AOE magic, and the difficulty of the exemption has nothing to do with the terrain.
