Chapter 145: One Against Four
Intertwined silvery-white vines encircled the strange backbone, flowing energy swirled around the staff, and the transparent crystals at the top glittered in the light, perfectly balancing life and death.
Not far away, the four black-clothed men who were chasing all the way stared at Sean cautiously, and when they saw that their attacks were blocked, the expressions on their faces were not very good-looking, and there was even a little jealousy in the subtleties.
"Hello Mr. Sean, I'm Amanda Garcés, I'm sorry that our actions have disturbed your life, and I sincerely apologize on behalf of the others."
After a moment of silence, Amanda took the initiative to step forward, he stepped forward a little bit, and looked at Sean with a sincere gaze, as if he wanted to get close to him.
"We know you've never been involved in these things, and naturally you have no intention of being an enemy, and this time we're targeting that guy, and we'll leave as soon as you're willing to hand him over."
Amanda took off her hood, revealing her rather handsome appearance, his smile was quite standard, and his words were polite and not the slightest bit uncomfortable.
"Oh? Is it? ”
Sean sneered, but didn't buy his account.
There is a famous saying in the world where Wang Changge once lived, called "If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world", although Sean disagrees with the real point expressed in this sentence, but a certain part of his approach is quite correct.
That is, when you don't have the strength, don't meddle in things, and when you are relatively strong, you can do what you want to do.
In the past, even if he faced the assassination of the enemy, he could only hide in the house and silently improve himself afterwards, not to mention participating in various battles or retaliation activities.
This anger Sean can hold back for more than a while and a half, if it weren't for Celia being by his side every day, letting him relieve his loneliness and take care of his life by the way, I'm afraid he would really feel quite uncomfortable.
Therefore, since the samsara staff was made, he likes to wander around the city of Teresa every now and then, hoping every day that someone will trouble him like he did last time, so that he can avenge the disguised imprisonment of the previous month.
It's a pity that the group of guys in the Southern Alliance also seem to know that he is not easy to mess with, let alone assassinate, and even the head-on conflict between the two sides has been temporarily stopped, and the apprentice-level professionals have gradually become a deterrent combat force, and they have never been put into specific struggles again.
After all, he is not the protagonist of a biography, where is there a good thing to come to the enemy to taunt as soon as he upgrades or gets new equipment? Therefore, he waited for half a year, but he still did not wait for the imaginary opportunity.
Until today, this group of short-sighted guys finally started to act, although the target was not Sean, but since he met him, of course he would not let go.
However, for the sake of the large number of opponents and their decent attitude, Sean decided to give them another chance, so he slowly raised his staff, pointed the head of the staff at the enemy, and said with a blank face.
"I don't care what your purpose is, and I don't care what you want to do, I just know that this is my territory, and I have saved that guy, if you know each other, leave quickly, don't force me to do it myself."
Before the other party could respond, hearing Sean say such words, Galil, who was wrapped in the wall of bones, instantly became anxious.
The purpose of his coming here is to let Sean take him to retreat quickly and seek help from others, or to hold on and wait for rescue for the time being, but judging by Sean's current performance, this is obviously trying to touch the enemy head-on!
This is no joke.
There were now four people on the other side, and there were only two on their side, including a crippled and weak man, who obviously had a great disadvantage in terms of numbers.
This is even more true in terms of strength, although he doesn't know how Sean is performing in specific battles, but no matter what, he shouldn't be able to defeat four with one, not to mention that the enemy's career combination is almost perfect, and they also have a tacit understanding with each other, in this regard, he who has personally experienced it is obviously very much at his disposal.
If it weren't for the fact that the situation didn't allow it, he really wanted to rush out and pull Sean and run now, but unfortunately he was temporarily losing his combat ability due to the sequelae caused by the previous release of the talent spell, so he couldn't do anything other than hide in this wall of bones and pray that his teammates could hold on for a little longer.
However, in just a few seconds, the mood swings of the four men in black were even greater than Galil's.
The moment Sean raised the staff, they all took a few steps back, although it was not clear what the mystery of this staff was, but judging from Sean's record of killing Cheryl in an instant, it was not weak.
Immediately after, they heard the other party's almost humiliating words, and although they did waver for a moment at first, they immediately became annoyed when they carefully examined the approximate ratio of the number and strength of the two sides.
"So...... Sean Morton, are you provoking us? ”
Amanda frowned, and then asked bluntly with a hint of anger, at this moment he didn't even use honorifics anymore, and the grip of the long sword in his hand was tighter.
Although theoretically speaking, the upper limit of the mage profession is indeed much higher than that of other professions, it is still very difficult to reach the level of one dozen four, unless the opponent is assisted by a large number of magic items and alchemy items, and his own ability must also be excellent, it is impossible to do it.
What's more, they themselves are not ordinary apprentice-level professionals.
Take him Amanda Garcés as an example, his professional level is 16, although he doesn't hold many magic items, but it is basically enough to deal with professionals of the same level, with superb combat skills and the cooperation of his teammates, he thinks that there is almost no possibility of defeat against Sean alone, and even with a complete combat power Galil is definitely a situation of winning more and losing less.
Driven by this self-confidence, Amanda decisively pushed Sean's words back.
Although he didn't want to spend so much effort to fight, it didn't mean that he would back down in the face of the enemy, and since Sean had this attitude, it seemed that a battle was inevitable today.
But it just so happened that he wanted to see how powerful this rumored mysterious powerhouse was, and if the opportunity was right, then he might have one more prey today.
Thinking of this, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on Amanda's face, and he gently raised the long sword in his hand, learning Sean's posture to point the blade forward.
……
Seeing that the other party had no intention of retreating, a trace of violence flashed in Sean's eyes.
Of course, he knew that he had little chance of winning with one enemy and four enemies, but real battles were never a conversion of apparent strength, and in actual conflicts, there were too many factors that could affect the outcome of the battle, as long as Sean firmly grasped it, victory would naturally be within reach.
In fact, when faced with this situation, the only thing he has to do is to stare at a person to attack with all his might, even if he can't die, he has to hurt and maim him, only then will others be afraid and have the possibility of retreating.
Battle, on the verge of breaking out!
"Apprentice Runes with Magic - Wind Wings, Deflection Force Field, Mana Shield"
A second before Amanda lifted her sword, the three hedrons engraved with various runes and energy circuits in Sean's robe instantly shattered, turning into a fine cloud of dust and spilling on the ground.
Triple spells with different effects instantly blessed Sean's body, and as various streamers flew in the air, a translucent feather-like air wing, a mana shield that looked quite strong, and a diffuse invisible force field enveloped him instantly.
It was the alchemy item he had previously captured from the assassin, and it was easy to use and didn't consume any of his mana, so it was consumed by him at the very beginning of the preparation for the battle.
When facing a large number of enemies, Sean's first thing to do is to increase his tolerance rate and prevent being hit by continuous attacks to prevent him from being hit by continuous attacks, so whether it is a defensive spell that blocks attacks or a flying spell that makes him more flexible, it is his first choice.
Seeing Sean take the lead in using alchemy props to bless himself, Amanda's expression instantly became unsightly.
Although it is not realistic to defeat them with this little thing, with the blessing of Sean, if he uses the defenses he has in his home to delay for a while, it will not be a problem at all.
And if you can't end this battle as soon as possible, it will be too late for the enemy's reinforcements to arrive, although it will not be in danger with the help of friendly forces that appear at the same time, but the mission itself will most likely not be completed.
Amanda gritted her teeth, the power of qi and blood in her whole body surged wildly, and then she held the long sword with both hands, and kicked her left leg to the ground, and the whole person sprinted towards Sean like a sharp sword.
But unfortunately, with the help of Wind Wings, Sean's whole body soared into the air, and he quickly flew to a height of more than twenty meters, and began to chant incantations condescendingly.
"Whoosh!"
An arrow with the power of the earth attribute shot out from the ground, and it was surrounded by a heavy force, and it flew like a heavy crossbow bombardment, unstoppable.
It's a pity that when he saw Sean flick his wings casually, the whole person dodged the arrow lightly in the air, and he continued to chant with the same expression, as if the attack just now had no effect on him.
Wind Wing's flight speed is not very good among flying spells, but it is definitely the best in terms of flexibility.
If that Ranger used the power of the wind attribute or other high-speed type of arrows, maybe Sean would be a little more afraid, but no matter how powerful the earth-attribute arrows were, he could dodge them with his eyes closed.
"Apprentice Rune Enchantment Skill - Linear Piercing"
At this time, Amanda was also a little anxious, he hurriedly activated the built-in combat skill in the long sword, raised it high, and aimed his sword at Sean who was floating in the air with his blade.
With a large amount of qi and blood power poured into it, the additional light on the long sword became extremely dazzling in an instant, this is because it has its own combat skills, Amanda does not need to spend time mobilizing the power of qi and blood to circulate, nor does it need to accumulate momentum or gather strength, it can be used directly.
"Boom!"
When Amanda slammed the ground, his whole body sprinted towards Sean's face with an unstoppable force, and a strong sound of breaking wind sounded, and Sean's eyes were fixed on his sword-holding hands, chanting incantations with full concentration.
Less than a second had passed since he had set up his attack stance, and if he was a normal mage, he would definitely not be able to complete the spell cast on a warrior using magic items at such a close distance, and he might not even react in time.
But Sean is different, he is holding a staff of reincarnation, which is a trainee-level super magic item with 65% of the absorption base of the all-spell ether.
With the blessing of the staff of reincarnation, he felt that the aether that was dissociating between heaven and earth suddenly became extremely clear, and within a few seconds of flying into the sky, Sean had finished chanting the spell.
And this spell is an extremely important part of Sean's many plans, and it is also the basis for the success of his subsequent series of attacks.
"Apprentice Spell - Slow Wave"
"Apprentice Rune with Magic - Mithril Guardian"
Seeing that Amanda was about to rush in front of him, a mysterious smile suddenly appeared on Sean's face.
I saw that the head of his staff suddenly lit up, and the fluctuations that seemed to be substance quickly spread outward from the crystal, and at the same time, a circle of totems like Mithril appeared under his feet, constantly rotating and flickering.
The speed of the linear stab at close range is too fast for Wind Wings to dodge, not to mention the fact that there is a Trainee Assassin and a Trainee Mage on the battlefield, so it is not very useful to dodge at all, but it is better to deal with it head-on.
The enhanced ejection technique flying in the distance crashed straight into the deflection force field, and as the force field shattered, the enhanced ejection technique also slid to the side, instantly piercing an innocent house.
Another arrow pierced into the spell shield, a modest defensive spell that quickly wore out the power of the arrow's attributes, and then faded away as specks of light.
"Bell!"
A screeching sound of metal clashing came from behind Sean's head, and the sudden Assassin looked at the dagger in his hand in astonishment, apparently not understanding what the fatal blow had been blocked by.
Similar to his fate was Amanda's linear stabbing, and as the totem at Sean's feet shone wildly, the long sword in Amanda's hand suddenly slid to the side, and the ferocious attack instantly missed.
In front of the all-round defensive spell Mithril Guardian, which infuses 50 volts of mana and has an effect of 100 volts, no matter what kind of bells and whistles of attack, the best way to crack it will be found, even if it is a combat skill.
