ACT021: Elf Ranger

The dazzling glare instantly deprived everyone present of their vision, and Weiss only felt that there was a white flower in front of him, and the sound of gunshots, roars, and the hissing of parasites in his ears were mixed together, and the whole senses were confused for a moment.

The white light that spread out was like a surging tide, not just a simple irradiation, but an all-round cover, and those corpse walkers lying on the back of the parasite hissed in pain in the white light, so they had to run away with the parasite. When Weiss regained their sight, there was no trace of any enemy in sight, except for thousands of corpses.

"They're ...... Retreated?" Ling Lan asked Weiss in disbelief.

"Seems to be ......"

Thanks to the blessing of this fierce female elf, everyone on the Enterprise successfully survived the siege of the parasite, and God ended his "release of water" at this time, and the goblin captain who was apprehensive immediately let the airship take off and withdrew to the safety of the air.

"Oh hang! I almost thought I was going to be here tonight. Leaning on the railing and taking one last look at the battlefield below, Weiss gladly wiped the rain from his face.

The scene of fighting in the pouring rain and waving weapons to make blood and water splash together is indeed quite emotional to watch, but after the fight, the soaked clothes sticky to the body will also make people feel very uncomfortable. However, Weiss immediately realized something, and a pair of shining dog eyes secretly glanced at Ling Lan beside him......

Nima! waterproof material, bad reviews!

The two people who came out of the special prisoner of war camp and went directly to the ship had no other clothes except for this set of "imperial gifts" on their bodies, and they couldn't wear the clothes of the goblins and dwarves. The waist is three times thicker than you, the legs are only half as long as you, and the dwarves' ** "round body" makes their pants straight up and can be used as tent men. Fortunately, Kabbalah was able to use magic to help them dry their clothes, which was somewhat more comfortable.

"Let's just wait until there is a place where you can take a bath. Also, out of politeness, we'll have to thank the elf lady who just saved us. ”

The elf who saved everyone is named Adele Sillin, a ranger in the Elven Goddess Country, and belongs to the kind of elven adventurers who don't want to stay in the ancestral land of Tears Island and like to wander around the world. However, the other party will appear here, not because she happens to be passing by, but because her destination is the same as that of Enterprise, which is to go to the Principality of Nadal.

Not long after the Enterprise's departure, a small number of survivors from the affected area brought the news that if the dwarves had waited one more day for the departure of the Principality of Nima, they would not have been as ignorant of the status quo as they are now.

It is worth mentioning that the chess pieces owned by the other party are not the "archers" and "warlocks" that are more common in the elven clan, but extremely rare "chariots", and even Ling Lan also recognized that the opponent's weapon was the ring stick "Roaring Mountain" used by the warrior monks of the Donglinzhou Zen Academy, God knows where she got it from.

"Miss Cillin, with all due respect, the territory of the Principality of Nadal is probably already the world of corpse walkers, even if you are strong and have the treasure to restrain them, but the plague spread by those insects is not immune to the owner of the chess pieces!" Thinking of the four dwarf "chess pieces" who died tragically on the Astute, Scardo kindly dissuaded.

"I don't bother you about this, the purpose of this trip is to make a special trip to deal with these corpses. As soon as Elf Adele's words came out, everyone present was taken aback.

Sure, the glowing staff was effective in restraining the walking insects, but no one believed that a single elf could deal with a creature with the calamity surname known for its numbers and spread. Single-handedly breaking into the heart of the hard-hit area, this seems to them to be no different from sending them to death.

"Does the elven clan have any good plan for curing insects?"

After thinking for a while, Weiss suddenly asked Adele. Because he knows that the four large-scale outbreaks of the corpse in history, except for the last one that allowed the human Victor Empire to stand in his old age, the first three times were all elves, and he may have some "tricks to cure insects" after a long illness.

"I do have a way to get them back to the ground, but only to the temple in Nadal's capital. ”

It turns out that the elves who have suffered three necrocarp disasters in history do have their own set of countermeasures, that is, to use the large number of temples they have built over thousands of years to release a kind of light caste wide-area magic in the affected area, and force those necrous walkers who crawled up from the underground cavity back, so the spread of the third and fourth disasters has been effectively curbed before the situation gets out of control. However, the preparation required to use this wide-area magic is not simple!

First of all, there must be a large temple at the level of the main hall in the affected area, which the elves of the year have put a lot of effort into, and the existing large temples in Nanfeng Continent can cover more than 90% of the area, so there is no need to worry.

Secondly, the temple that needs to be used to activate magic must have a special rune orb on the top, and this orb is only valid for 100 years. Fortunately, the elves who have retreated to the Island of Tears will still recycle and replace these orbs on a regular basis to ensure that all the temples in the Gagoba area (the elves' name for Nanfeng Zhou) can be used at any time.

Originally, the orb at the top of Nadal's temple would not expire for at least five years, but unfortunately, a thunderstorm last month struck the temple and smashed the top orb. And then the disaster did not go alone, the dead walkers, which had not appeared for more than 500 years, just came out of the ground at this time, and the Principality of Nadal, which was caught off guard, soon lost contact with the outside world.

"The infestation came very suddenly, and the timing was very bad. I was in the neighboring Duchy of Yorkson at the time of the outbreak, and some of the refugees who had escaped brought the news out, and there happened to be some of my people in the area who were replacing the orb of the main temple in the region, so I replaced this one for emergency. ”

Adele said, taking out the short staff she used to dispel the corpse from her waist bag, although the oval orb at the top was still radiating, but if you look closely, you will find that there are many worn places on the surface, and it is obvious that the years are not short.

"This orb has been in the Yorkson area for 97 years, and it can barely be used a few times. As long as we can place this one on the main shrine in the Nadal area and activate it before the first encirclement net spreads, we can solve this pest crisis. ”

"Is that white light really that effective?" asked Weiss. He feared that this method was only temporary, and that after the white light dissipated, the bugs would climb up again and continue to cause trouble.

"The effect is undoubted, the high-purity light element can cause serious damage to the dead walking insects, and the irradiation can even directly kill them after a certain period of time, these insects will escape back to the ground to sleep after being severely injured, and will not wake up again in a short time. ”

"In that case, could you please help us save a dwarf with the orb in your hand? If you're willing to help, we might be able to take you directly to Nadal's capital temple, where the sky is not only safer than the ground, but it is faster. "Wess wasn't the captain of the Enterprise and couldn't make the decisions for Scardo, but he felt that the terms of the deal he had proposed would be beneficial to both of them.

"No problem, I still have medicine here. ”

Relying on Adele's orb and special medicine, the two seriously injured people on the Enterprise were quickly out of danger, and the airship immediately turned around and continued to advance towards the Nadal area, and it was expected to reach the temple located near the capital in two days. However, as the airship progressed deeper into the heart of Nadal's region, the sense of solemnity in the air intensified, and for the first time in his life, Weiss felt such a strong aura of death.

Following its original route, the Enterprise arrived in the town of Sitas, where it was expected to be resupplyed, but by the time they flew over the town, it had become almost a ghost town. There was no figure in sight from the air with a telescope, and there was a dead silence on the empty street, not even much blood was visible, but there was a "familiar" stench wafting in the air.

"Wright, you think it's all dead down here, right? I can barely feel the breath of the living. ”

"Looks like it's over here, I remember being taught in class that the walking insects are very cunning creatures that like to attack those who are asleep at night, and many of them are controlled by parasites in their sleep. Weiss explained to Ling Lan.

"Can they even parasitize the owner of the chess piece?"

"I don't know about that, because the last insect plague happened before the king chess game. But for now, it seems that we are not immune to the kind of plague that the other side spreads, parasitic ...... I guess it can be done. ”

The walking insects spread a special type of plague that spreads through the air and infects people unknowingly. Under normal circumstances, there is an incubation period of about 1 week after being infected, and death occurs 2~3 weeks after the onset of the disease, but if the body is injured and bleeding, then this process will be shortened by more than 5 times!

Fortunately, they ran into Adele, who had a dry powder potion developed by the elves, which could effectively treat and prevent this plague. Each crew member of the ship was given a blue potion that looked like a toilet cleaner and tasted similar to the toilet cleaner, and Adele promised that it would be effective for a period of time, enough for them to complete their mission until they were evacuated.

When Wess and Ling Lan were talking, Adele stood less than 3 meters away, and would peek at them from time to time. Weiss found that the female elf had often stared at him with "strange" eyes since he got on the boat, and the other party seemed to be "very interesting" to him, but he always felt that something was not right.

"Wright, why do I think Miss Cillin keeps staring at you?" Ling Lan muttered to Wess in a low voice.

"Don't ask me, I want to know why she keeps staring at me?"

It stands to reason that being stared at by a very beautiful girl should be very happy if you change to an ordinary man, but if this girl can fly any object that dares to use her mantis arm as a car in front of her at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour, then Weiss will have to think about it, whether his body can resist the other party's "milk (tan) swallow (ke)" into his arms.
