Chapter Twenty-Three: One Sword and One Luk
"Is this your mount buddy?" Lin Jialu asked with some confusion.
Long Haochen nodded, Ling Chen's face was full of joy, and he stepped forward and touched Haoyue's head.
Lin Jialu's eyes showed a hint of regret, and said, "Okay, its figure is not inconspicuous, let's go." β
Ling Chen and Long Haochen walked silently at the rear, seven people formed a diamond-shaped battle formation, turned over the hills, and finally entered the territory of the demon clan.
Ahead is a large plain area, and there is no edge in sight, but when the wind rises, you can faintly smell a little blood.
With the appearance of the demons, it has been six thousand years since the dark ages. Whether it is humans or demons, they have thrown too much blood on this plain.
In Lin Jialu's hand, he still had the staff that he had not used when he was competing with Long Haochen, and the staff was lightly touched in the air, accompanied by the chanting of a few incantations. A bird-shaped shadow of light and shadow had spread its wings and soared into the air, flying high into the air. And Lin Jialu's eyes were also covered with a faint light.
Eagle Eye, a compulsory magic for magicians, is able to look down from the air and observe the distance. The higher the cultivation, the greater the scope of Eagle Eye observation.
Li Xin frowned slightly, and said, "The terrain here is too open, which is not conducive to our ambush, you can find a place where you can hide your body." β
Lin Jialu bowed slightly, and said: "Five miles in front of the left, there is a hilly area, and in front of the hilly area, there is a bush, let's go there for the time being." Then move slowly forward. There is no enemy within a radius of ten miles, let's go. β
Li Xin nodded. Everyone accelerated their pace in the direction Lin Jialu said.
Long Haochen was surprised to find that Haoyue Shuangshu, who almost quarreled when they met on weekdays, did not show any signs of quarreling at this time. Among the seven people in the group, the two of them were the leaders, Li Xin was exploring the way ahead, Lin Jialu was in the middle to command and reconnoitre, and the Chen brothers and Long Haochen were very relaxed, as long as they followed the action.
Under the command of Lin Jialu's eagle eye, everyone moved forward very cautiously, and after an hour's work, they continued to march for about fifty miles using the rare bunkers on the plain. Whenever she went to a place that could be hidden, Lin Jialu would mark it on the map before moving on.
The route they took to enter the territory of the Demon Race was carefully selected by several leaders of Haoyue City, starting from the garrison of the Temple Alliance, to the nearest garrison of the Demon Clan, it was only two hundred miles of open land, although the terrain was not favorable, but it was better because of the proximity, and it was much more convenient to retreat.
The night gradually deepened, and after continuing to travel for about eighty miles, Lin Jialu found a bush and ordered to rest.
"You can't keep getting closer, if you keep moving forward, you'll probably enter the detection range of the demon magician." Lin Jialu said in a low voice.
Li Xin nodded and said, "I also heard my father say that there are some powerful magicians in the demon camp, and the Eagle Eye Technique is a hundred miles away. If we go any further, we may find a lot of it. Let's just wait here for now. β
The crowd ate some more food, maintained their strength, and waited quietly in place. Only Lin Jialu constantly launched the Eagle Eye Technique to reconnoiter the surroundings.
The night passed quietly. It's getting brighter.
After a night of waiting, they didn't wait for half of the demon patrol, and the five of them couldn't help but be a little depressed. Especially Lin Jialu, who constantly uses the Eagle Eye Technique, is already slightly tired.
"Strange, aren't these demons patrolling?" Chen Si said with some puzzlement.
The five of them looked at each other, their faces showing a bit of helplessness, although they were all the best of the young generation in Haoyue City, but none of them had participated in the war, and the task that seemed to be not difficult had become troublesome. There is also a limit to the time it can be obtained. They only had three days in total. Beyond that time, they wouldn't have been able to make it to the Templar League for tryouts.
Li Xin frowned and said, "It's really not good, I'll ride the rose deeper and enter the demon clan's detection range, in that case, they should be able to react." β
Lin Jialu immediately said categorically: "No." It's too dangerous. Your rose unicorn is too shadowy, one is not good, and if you invite a strong enemy, we will be wiped out. β
While everyone was discussing countermeasures, suddenly, Ling Chen and Long Haochen, who had been listening quietly, shouted, "Be careful, there is an enemy." As he spoke, the lightsaber that Long Haochen was holding in his hand at all times suddenly raised, and a layer of pale golden light curtain instantly enveloped the seven people. Aura.
Almost in the next instant, a violent vibration came from under everyone's feet, and with a pop, the aura shield shattered, but at the same moment, another layer of aura shroud lit up from under Long Haochen's feet, finally blocking the attack that appeared from under his feet.
One by one, about one and a half meters long, very thick spikes rose close to the aura shield, if Long Haochen's reaction was one step slower, then at this moment, they would have to use their bodies to withstand this attack.
There are as many as seven or eight thick spikes, which are purple-black in color, and there is a faint purple-black air flow rippling on them.
The second layer of aura shield was not issued by Long Haochen, and the speed at which he used his skills was not so fast, it was Haoyue under his feet, and the skills that spread out from the lizard's head with golden eyes were perfectly connected with Long Haochen's aura shield, completing this defense for everyone.
Rook? Ling Chen didn't hesitate for half a minute, pulled out his double swords, and plunged them into the ground.
"It's the Rukhs." The six of them were all elites of the younger generation of Haoyue City, and they all reacted under the brief shock. Seeing what Ling Chen had done, Li Xin shouted at the same time, a pair of long swords shining with crimson light in his hands stabbed into the ground fiercely.
Long Haochen, Chen Si, and Chen Chen also made the same move.
The pop sounded continuously, and the ground shook violently.
Lin Jialu lowered the wand in his hand, and a blue light shot out of the ground, and at the same time shouted: "Pull out the weapon." β
The weapon with viscous blood was pulled out of the ground, and immediately after, everyone felt a chill under their feet, and the ground had been frozen as steel. Lin Jialu applied the Ice Wall Technique directly under their feet.
One after another, thick spikes rushed out of the ground from around the five people, and immediately after, one after another figures shot out of the ground, surrounding Long Haochen and the seven people in the center.
It was a monstrous-looking creature that looked a little like a human. They are all about 1.7 meters tall, with naked upper bodies and fine black scales on their lower bodies. The skin of the upper body is purple-black, and there are three eyes on the head, the most peculiar of which are their four arms. Yes, each of these monsters has four arms, and each arm is shaped like a spike, and the lower arms are completely keratinized, like triangular thorns, with a faint cold glow at the tip.
Although Li Jian and the others had learned about the Demon Race in their respective temples, and had also seen the picture books of the various Demon Clans, they still couldn't help but be a little nervous when they really faced the Demon Clan, but there were three people who were different.
Six thousand years ago, seventy-two demon god pillars suddenly descended on the Holy Demon Continent, causing a large number of creatures to mutate, and then gradually transformed into various combat powers of the demon race, the most important of which were more than 20 races, and the one that appeared in front of everyone was one of them, the Luke clan.
Compared to humans, the most terrifying thing about demons is their fighting talent, regardless of men, women, young and old, they can participate in battle. The talent of the demons is far beyond the comparison of humans, and even without any cultivation, they can become powerful warriors.
The talent of the Rooks is their four spike-like arms, they are not very strong in frontal combat, but they are extremely good at sneak attacks, and when the four arms are raised at the same time and closed above their heads, they can drill underground quickly, as fast as running. When you attack from below, you can't be caught off guard.
At this time, there were sixteen or seven Luk warriors surrounding Long Haochen's seven people, and there were still a few spikes among them that did not rush out of the ground, obviously dying in the direct counterattack they had just made to the ground in the early morning.
As soon as these Luks rushed out of the ground, they immediately rushed towards the seven people in the morning with a strange scream, and the spikes emitted a cold light, looking extremely strong.
Because the enemy came out from all directions, except for Lin Jialu and Nan Hui, the other five had to fight on their own. Although they were a little nervous, they were all fourth-order professionals after all, so they didn't make any moves, maintaining a good formation to protect Lin Jialu in the center, and each raised his weapon.
The first to launch was Haoyue beside Long Haochen, the two big heads were raised separately, and the small fire opened a mouth, that is, a fireball erupted, and the small light did not show weakness, and a light arrow shot away faster.
Because Haoyue's two heads have their own thoughts, Long Haochen named them according to their attributes, which were: Xiaohuo and Xiaoguang.
The light arrow that Xiao Guang spewed out was about a foot long, and the speed was extremely fast, and before a Luk warrior on the opposite side could react, poof, his head had been shot through, and he fell to the ground waving four spikes.
A roar followed, and another Luk tried to fend off the fireball from the small fire with his spikes, but he was blocked by the explosion of the fireball.
A hint of excitement appeared on Ling Chen's face, although he was a bit of a big bully, but the Luke clan was indeed one by one in front of him, and he didn't even use his skills, just two knives killed two.
There were more than a dozen enemies in total, and Long Haochen only faced four at the same time, Haoyue solved two, so he naturally had no pressure. A low chant sounded from his mouth quickly, the lightsaber in his hand was raised above his head, and a strange symbol lit up above his head, as if it was a contagion, and the symbol instantly diverged, appearing above the other four heads at the same time. Immediately after, another golden aura rippled out from under Long Haochen's feet, and a faint layer of golden light rippled from the seven people within the range of the aura.
It wasn't until Long Haochen had completed these two divine spells that the other two Luks he was facing rushed to him.
The lightsaber was raised, but he still had the shield of light in his left hand, and with a bang, the spikes of the two Luk warriors were completely blocked. β
Almost instantly, the two Luke warriors were killed with a single sword in the early morning.
The golden symbol that appears on the top of the head is the skill of the guardian knight, the guardian gift, when attacked by the enemy, the guardian gift will burst out of the defensive effect as soon as possible, canceling out a certain amount of attack power of the enemy.
The golden aura turned the tension in Long Haochen's seven hearts into perseverance, this is the aura of faith. Like the Guardian Gift, it is a support skill of the Guardian Knight, and it is also used in the battle of Yehua before the early morning.
Lin Jialu, who was in the center of the formation, had just completed a spell at this time, Ling Ling and Long Haochen were so young, the first thing she had to take care of was naturally this side, but her magic had just been completed, and the battle between Ling Chen and Long Haochen had already ended. Not only that, Long Haochen actually released two group skills to assist everyone.
"Ice Marksmanship." Four blue rays of light rose into the sky, and then fell like meteors, turning into four ice spears two meters long, nailing the four Luk warriors to the ground, and they were now dead.
The enemies on both sides of Li Xin and Chen Chen were also solved in the next moment, Chen Si was a shield warrior, and his defense was stronger than his attack, but with the assistance of Lin Jialu's ice spear technique, the battle was also resolved at this time.
The frontal combat ability of the Rukh warriors is already very weak, barely equivalent to the second-order first-order warriors of the human race. Without the opportunity to sneak attack, how could they be the opponents of their four fourth-order powerhouses.
Looking at the corpses in the surrounding places, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, these enemies of the Rook tribe came too suddenly. Although their own combat effectiveness is not very strong, if they fail to detect it in advance when they sneak up from the underground, they will definitely pay a lot of price in the early morning.
"Little Brother Long, thank you." Lin Jialu said to Long Haochen with a somewhat pale face. She is a magician, and her body defenses are weak, and if she fails to detect the sneak attack, she is the most likely to be killed.
The two brothers, Chen Si and Chen Chen, looked at Long Haochen and Ling Chen's eyes changed significantly. Although Long Haochen had Haoyue's help in the battle just now, don't forget, not only did he discover the enemy at the first time, but he also used a total of three divine magics, one more than Lin Jialu as a magician.
It's a bit perverted to arrive in the early morning, a knife and a Lukh on the battlefield, almost half of which he killed.
Aura, Aura of Faith, and Guardian Gifts, although they are all skills that can be used by second-order guardian knights, are very practical. The skills are connected quickly, and the two brothers Chen Si and Chen Chen are all sighing to themselves. There is no doubt that Ling Ling and Long Haochen have already used their strength to prove yin, and they are also a big knight, not some of Li Xin's followers.
Thirteen or fourteen-year-old knights! Just thinking about it, the Chen brothers all felt a chill in their hearts.
Ling Chen can second the Luke clan without using spiritual power, this kind of strength is enough to show that he is a great knight, but unfortunately Ling Chen is a fifth order, they guessed wrong.
The sign of the great knight is that the spiritual power is released without using skills, although Long Haochen did not show such an ability, but the connection of his continuous use of skills just now is enough to prove the strength of Yin.
Just when everyone was looking at Long Haochen in some surprise, suddenly, Ling Chen's face changed greatly, and he shouted again, "Be careful." The golden light was shining, and the aura shield was actually twice as large as the one released by Long Haochen.
However, this time, the aura shield was shattered almost the moment it appeared, and at the same time that the aura mask was shattered, everyone vaguely saw a figure appear next to Lin Jialu like lightning. A cold light went straight to Lin Jialu's neck and wiped it away.
Stealth Attack!
Lin Jialu is located in the middle of Long Haochen and the other four, and as a magician, she is the key object of protection. But at this time, with that looming figure breaking through the aura cover, it had already penetrated through the gap between Chen Chen and Li Xin.
The speed of the enemy was too fast, and most of the people were still in a daze. Ling Chen could react to the instantaneous aura cover, but Long Haochen didn't have enough speed to save Lin Jialu.
"Jialuβ" Li Xin screamed. However, no matter how anxious she is, it takes time from mobilization to rescue, and how can she be in time.
Lin Jialu's neck skin trembled when the sharp blade of Sen Leng stimulated, and the next moment she shouted to be careful in the early morning, she felt this Sen Leng, not to mention that she was a great magician, even if she was a magister, there was nothing she could do in such a situation.
Is death coming? At this moment, Lin Jialu had no sorrow or joy, only endless unwillingness. It was as if the blade had cut through her throat, and it seemed as if she felt her soul leave her body.
