The battle has been going on for a quarter of an hour, and there is no winner or loser.

Two agile figures roamed quickly through the cavern, dragging long black shadows across the mountain wall with the splash of sparks. The roar of the blade tore through the skin of the air, drawing a smooth trajectory.

Finally, Medusa's chest, which was not known for her melee expertise, trembled even more, and after dodging Ronald's diagonal sweep again, she seemed to pause because she was out of breath.

Seeing that the snake girl's breathing rate began to become a little rapid, Ronald, who was holding the extended magic sword, sent his hands forward, accompanied by the cold blue fireflies, and the piercing sword wind rushed towards his face. Although it was only for a moment, Ronald, who seized this opportunity, did not give the snake girl any possibility to dodge at all.

The snake girl immediately clenched the dagger and did her best to meet it.

Ping!

The crunch of metal clashing swept across the eardrums, and Medusa's palm, which had successfully stabbed her head off, immediately lost sensation. Under that tremendous force, her body also lost her balance at the same time, and her upper height was raised high, and her whole body was somewhat off the ground.

It doesn't take the power of a mage to get rid of this monster, and Ronald, who pursed his mouth, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows excitedly. The hands he sent forward immediately changed the trajectory of his strength, and slashed down the sword blade that had already been deviated.

However, it was only a brief moment that could not be captured. Before revealing the fatal flaw, Medusa was already like a dexterous poisonous snake, quickly adjusting her attack posture. The short bow in his left hand suddenly opened the invisible bowstring, and the aim of the dark phantom arrow was already aimed at Ronald's chest with an excited face. As she made the gesture of shooting, she suddenly threw herself into Ronald's arms, completely ignoring the ice sword that slashed at her shoulder.

Sharp arrows, daggers sent forward, and snake girls in arms, the three attack methods met Ronald almost at the same time.

Looking at the glamorous snake girl like a lover's arms, Ronald's back felt cold, because he saw the deadly killing intent hidden in the fragrant picture.

When he was stared at by the snake girl with her dark golden eyes, his heart beat uncontrollably. The lips were also subconsciously pursed, showing the pale color of blood loss. But the beating heart rate is not provoked by the glamorous snake girl of **, and the pursed lips are not discolored because of the stimulation of **.

Not good!

Ronald tried in vain to change the pace of the rush, but it was too late to jump away from the snake girl who took the initiative to approach him. His extremely embarrassed head dodged sharp arrows, and the long sword was back in time to block the dagger stabbing at him, but he knew that he couldn't hide from the snake girl who threw himself into his arms. Listening to the swift wind still echoing in his ears, there was a hint of despair in his eyes.

It's over, I'm going to be petrified......

Medusa's figure was getting closer and closer in Ronald's eyes, and he even saw the smile on the corner of the awe-inspiring queen's mouth. Time seems particularly long at this moment. Before he knew it, Ronald's palms were covered with sweat, and his back quickly became wet.

Looking at the enemy who was already in a trance, Medusa's dark golden pupilless eyes shone with a strange light, and she vowed to turn the enemy in front of her into a stone statue.

At the last moment, the mage, who had been watching the battle situation all the time, had already shot a red ray from his staff before Medusa could rush forward.

Thorn Twist!

The crimson thorns writhed violently, binding the snake girl who leaned forward, no longer giving her any motivation to move forward. This restriction magic, which had been prepared for a long time and was intended to cooperate with Ronald to kill monsters, has become Ronald's life-saving tool at the moment.

Immediately after, the mage teleported to Ronald, who had a shocked face and bulging eyes, kicked Ronald, who was already in a state of distraction, and followed him to run away without hesitation.

The tenderness from the calf made Ronald, who was dazed and distracted, come back to his senses in an instant. With just a quick glance, he quickly turned around with his sword and slashed, trying to kill the entangled snake girl.

Syllable.

The fine thorn vines, most of which have been broken. Before the swift slashing wind strikes, the snake girl with a slightly regretful expression retreats in time.

The rush failed, and Ronald immediately took a big leap back. That's when he really felt the hot and moist touch coming from his back. With a grateful look in his eyes, he glanced at the mage who had already run ten meters away.

Sou!

The short bow in the snake woman's left hand once again provoked a phantom arrow, and this time she targeted the mage who had not yet established himself. Medusa, full of rage, poured out all her anger into this arrow, intending to shoot the severed arm human who had just gotten in the way to prevent future troubles.

Ronald, who had no time to rescue, resolutely chose to rush forward.

"Die!"

He roared and rode up, trying to use the opportunity to inflict damage on his enemies.

When she was met by the enemy with that unflinching look in her eyes, Medusa's brow suddenly furrowed, and her delicate face showed disdain for veto. She whispered in the vernacular of the demon world, "Cheap feelings." ”

Bite!

With a light lift of the dagger, she withstood the blow, but because of the lack of strength, Medusa's slender white palm was finally shocked into a bright red, and the tiger's mouth hurt terribly. As if she was unconscious, she didn't even look at her palm, but cast her eyes on the mage in the distance.

The mage, who had long thought that he might be attacked, completely ignored his previous grace and threw himself into the stream below him in an extremely embarrassed manner. The clear water became muddy for a moment, but the mage dodged the arrow that chased him.

Burst!

The phantom arrow shot at the hard rock, piercing a small hole before dissipating into nothingness.

The muddy mage scrambled to a hidden spot beside the mountain wall, gasping for air.

Unfortunately, the Thorn Coil was still too reluctant to deal with Medusa, and it couldn't limit her for too long...... However, I only have this spell to assist Ronald. There were no corpses nearby to detonate, and if you chant the Fog of Death, Ronald will inevitably be implicated...... It's because I'm too persistent......

A bitter smile tugged at the corner of the mage's lips as he considered whether or not to retreat for now.

Suddenly.

A blinding bolt of lightning cut through the darkness of the cave, and the silvery white glow was like an enraged poisonous snake, unscrupulously pounced on Ronald who was fighting Medusa. Caught off guard, Ronald, who was stabbed slightly, instinctively made a backward leap to dodge, but the branches that stretched out from the dazzling electric light still passed through Ronald's body lightly, making his body tremble uncontrollably. The protective ring on Ronald's finger could not stop this second-order magic.

Zizizizi.

The lightning flowed, flowing unscrupulously on Ronald's body, and the clothes on Ronald's right shoulder were blackened and stinky. Fortunately, under the dual effect of the body protection shield and Ronald's own magic, he was only temporarily paralyzed in his right shoulder. In sight, the snake girl was already holding a dagger and attacking quickly, Ronald didn't dare to fight hard, so he had to choose to fight and retreat.

His right hand hung weakly, and he had to rely on his left hand to try to block the snake girl's intention to get close.

Damn, it's not okay yet!

There was a hint of anxiety on his resolute face.

The mage's expression also began to become serious, and he hurriedly released the thorn tangle on the chasing Medusa, slowing down the snake girl's pursuit.

The situation was critical, and the mage finally made up his mind to retreat, his lips trembling excitedly: "Quick, let's retreat first!"

Ronald, who ran to the mage's side, twisted his shoulder, feeling that his numb and aching shoulder was showing some signs of recovery, and before he could raise his hand, he immediately rolled sideways, dodging the arrow from Medusa.

After getting up, he saw a tall figure looming behind Medusa.

"Crush!

The mage's hurried whisper quickly reached Ronald's ears.

He didn't hesitate, and immediately followed closely behind the mage and crushed the teleportation crystal that had been prepared long ago. The two glimmers lit up almost at the same time, and Ronald only felt his body light, his vision was hazy for a while, and when he woke up, he found that he and the mage were already standing in the small cave.

The mage stepped forward quickly, anxiously checking the injury to Ronald's right shoulder. He was relieved to find that the outer skin was only blackened with electricity, and there were several blisters of different sizes on it. He lowered his head, emaciated cheeks showing chagrin, "It's my fault, Ronald. ”

Hearing the self-reproach in Kerry's tone, Ronald only smiled slightly: "Don't mind. He pointed to his right shoulder: "You see, I used the power of ice in time to protect it, and it's no big deal." ”

As he spoke, he deliberately twisted his right shoulder sharply to prove that he was not lying.

"That Medusa knew last night that we had retreated here, and now it's dangerous!" the mage suddenly raised his head: "Let's get out of here and go back to Fort Orleans first." ”

"What about the demons?

"It's me who is too obsessed with this!" the mage's tone was unusually serious, "It's hard to get rid of them with just the two of us." He sighed heavily, feeling annoyed, "I didn't even find out that there was a demon hidden in the cave......"

Ronald hurriedly comforted his companion: "It can't be smooth sailing, in that case, let's get out of here quickly." As soon as he said go, he immediately took a big step and walked out of the cave, but after only a few steps, he suddenly turned back: "Now that the situation is serious, Her Royal Highness the Princess may not give us manpower to solve this matter." ”

The Master did not reply directly: "I will write a letter to the Holy See." ”

Ronald froze in surprise, and he was in a daze for a long moment before he came back to his senses. He turned around and walked back quickly, with an expression of disbelief on his face: "Inform the Holy See? I heard you right, aren't you a wanted criminal of the Holy See?"

The mage nodded solemnly: "Being wanted is not the same thing as destroying demons. ”

Ronald sighed exaggeratedly and shook his head again and again: "Will the people of the Holy See accept the information reported by a wanted criminal?"

"Let's go back first. ”

The mage didn't answer Ronald's doubts, he lowered his head and walked briskly out of the cave. Ronald shrugged and followed in bewilderment.

But after only half a moment, the mage suddenly slipped behind a large tree, and whispered in his mouth, "Be careful, you're coming." ”

Ronald quickly jumped up to the mage and muttered, "Damn, it's fast." ”
