We stood at the door of the hut, waiting for the saber-toothed robber who was close to the door to enter. As he walked to the bar in the doorway and was about to turn around, an ice arrow shot through the doorway, stabbing him in the thigh.

The Yangtze River Delta's estimate was accurate, and the attack on the saber-toothed robbers did not alarm the other accomplices in the house. This reckless bandit rushed out with a short knife in his hand, but he did not know what tragic fate was about to meet him.

"Goo-dong!" As soon as he burst out of the room, a warhammer flashed out from behind him, hitting him in the back of the head. The unlucky guy immediately stood there and shook unconsciously. In front of him, the sorceress who had just shot him with an ice arrow was looking at him with a sly smile, while the dwarven priest was counting on her fingers.

After a while, when the hapless robber had just been freed from the vertigo of the stuffy stick, and was about to settle accounts with the man who had attacked him with a vicious face, "Bang! A round, strong shield slapped him in the face without losing any time. After a pleasant crisp sound, the bandit fell into a coma again. Unlike just now, this time his nose was noticeably shorter than before.

I withdrew my shield-raising left hand and watched with satisfaction the effect of the traumatic shock I had caused. On the other side of the victim, a bloated, green-skinned orc with two fangs in one hand was nervously counting the time, carrying a war hammer in one hand.

Moments before the saber-toothed robber was about to wake up again, the fat man suddenly poured a bottle of potion on himself. The potions shimmered in the air, making people dizzy. As it flowed, the fat man with the hammer in hand magically faded into thin air. Before his body completely disappeared......

"Goo-dong!" The heavy hammer struck again on the robber's head. Despite being in a hostile position, I had to sympathize with the miserable plight of this poor man. Being played with by an opponent as a target without paying attention to it, always in a state of delirium, and even dying without knowing how he died, this is probably the most humiliating experience of a fighter. And all this was only because he was standing closer to the door.

"Oh yes! The experiment was successful! Fei Yin clapped her hands and jumped up in cheer. Tapping her finger on the unconscious bandit's forehead, she said to us, "For such a long time, it is more than enough to hack two robbers to death." ”

"Bang dang!" Seeing that the saber-toothed robber was about to come to his senses again, I raised my shield and touched his face again, then looked at my fighting spirit and said, "There are only two shield strikes at most, and my fighting spirit has bottomed out." ”

"That's enough...... Longbow Shooter nodded contentedly, then looked at the hapless ghost who was still unconscious with a malicious gaze, "...... Now we can kill him, right? ”

……

The first to attack was still our orc wanderer, the Yangtze River Delta.

This time, he was once again in hiding with ease, and his footsteps gently touched the side of the saber-toothed bandit leader Ridardis. We stood in the doorway, holding our breath and staring nervously at him - the success of the first blow was the key to our entire battle plan. If he is found before he gets close to the bandit leader, we will not be able to complete our mission, but we will all five of us die.

So far, his infiltration has been very successful. The obscene orc was like a fermented ghost, fluttering around the room. He turned his desk, rounded the pillar, flashed past the last saber-toothed bandit, and circled in a great circle behind Ridardis.

When he stood still and just raised the war hammer, the bandit leader seemed to sense something wrong, and suddenly turned around and looked straight in the direction of the Yangtze River Delta. The two men stood so close together that they almost touched their noses.

This sudden change not only made the Yangtze River Delta stunned, but also shocked us into a cold sweat. Fei Yin subconsciously let out a soft "ah", and the hand holding my arm tightened suddenly.

At the moment when his whereabouts were about to be revealed, the Yangtze River Delta took a decisive half step to the right, stepped to the side of the bandit leader, and the war hammer in his right hand struck straight down, hitting him in the back of the head.

"Quick!" Once the sneak attack was successful, the Yangtze River Delta immediately yelled at the door. By this time he had nothing to hide, and the robbers in the room spotted the intruder who had attacked their leader, and immediately rushed forward with a shout. In addition to the fierce-looking saber-toothed bandit, two "saber-toothed assassins" dressed in tight-fitting black and holding daggers also emerged from the corner, and their bodies quickly surrounded them.

"We're on!" Almost at the same moment, the sorceress Fei Yin screamed and rushed into the door with a convincing heroic attitude. As had been arranged, I followed, while the Ranger was dragged tightly by the longbow - if it weren't for that, the short-sighted Elven Ranger would have been killed by the jumbled furnishings in the room before he could do anything.

As soon as we rushed into the room, Yangtze River immediately used his refraction potion and disappeared in plain sight. The bandits, having lost their purpose, immediately turned around and tried to block our path. That's exactly what I'm worried about—if I'm entangled in them and can't rush to the bandit leader's side in time, our nightmare will come when he comes to his senses.

Fei Yin said that this problem is not difficult to solve, and I don't know why she is so confident. But no matter what tricks she has in her hands, it's best to come up with them now, otherwise I'm afraid it will be too late.

At this time, Fei Yin suddenly bowed down and slapped her hands flat on the ground. A faint blue flame suddenly bloomed in her hand, and spread out in a fan-forward direction at an extremely fast speed. Wherever the aura went, a layer of cold air immediately condensed on the ground, and the soft and thick mud was instantly covered with a layer of crystal color, turning into a frost-white frozen soil.

This layer of cold air spread directly to the feet of the oncoming bandits, and the legs of these people were immediately frozen by a layer of ice crystals. This change came too suddenly, and before they could react, their upper bodies were still running forward, but their feet were already difficult to walk.

This spell came at the right time, both the timing and the distance were so well grasped, but I was not mentally prepared and became at a loss all of a sudden. I looked at Fei Yin in amazement and said in a daze: "You ......"

"What are you? You don't really think I'm only an ice arrow, do you? Not yet!? Auntie, my magic potion costs money! "I have never seen anyone as irresistible as the heroine in front of me, and the surging leadership qualities that flowed from her slender and delicate body shook my soul greatly. Under her overwhelming strength, I barely thought about it, just instinctively and immediately accepted her orders.

My instincts tell me that if I don't, a very miserable fate must be waiting for me not far ahead of my life—the experience of String Song and Longbow Shooting tells me that being hacked to death with an axe by a bandit leader may not be too terrible compared to the punishment arranged by our human female mage.

It is also a skill that restricts the opponent's movements, and Fei Yin's "Freezing Technique" lasts for a shorter time. By the time I came to Ridardis, the bandits had broken free from the frozen grip and were chasing after us.

"Shoot the sun with a longbow, you come to resist them, and pay attention to adding blood to yourself. String Song Yayi, kill the mage first! Fei Yin's clear voice sounded again, arranging everyone's tasks in the chaos.

The command of the princess is undoubtedly sane, and in the event that I, a warrior in armor, cannot immediately enter the battle, our fierce dwarven friend is the only one who can act as a meat shield. His bizarre and original spell "Jeet Kune Do" can provide him with a considerable degree of protection and attack power, and in any case, this dwarven berserker who has chosen the wrong goal in life will still have some spells that increase his vitality.

It is also correct to choose the Sabertooth Mage as the first target to clear. Of the four bandit accomplices, this bandit caster is the weakest defense; And once he is given enough time to cast powerful magic, he is also the most lethal. And throughout, this highly intelligent criminal who uses long-range magic as a means of attack has not left the bandit leader's side, which allows me to participate in the battle in the first place after I stunned Ridardis.

As soon as he approached the saber-toothed mage, he did not hesitate to use his "burst" skill. No one thinks it's a waste to use such a powerful skill against an enemy, and even though everything is going according to plan, we don't really have the advantage in strength.

With a high frequency of bow and arrow attacks, the saber-toothed mage's powerful spells are simply impossible to cast - we all know that mages often chant spells when casting spells, and the more powerful the spell, the longer the spell. The problem had never been so obvious as it was now, and the saber-toothed mage had just spat out a note when he was shot out of breath by two or three sharp arrows. This spell, which had no standard syllables or rhythms, was clearly not able to win the favor of the gods of magic, so the recalcitrant saber-toothed mages had to struggle against it with the most rudimentary "fire bomb" that did little time to chant the spell, and the damage was limited. On the other side, in addition to the bow and arrows, the powerful single spells "Ice Pick Technique" and "Ice Spike Technique" of the magician Fei Yin were continuously poured on his body.

It didn't take long for the bandit leader Ridardis to gradually recover from his vertigo. I saw that the time was almost up, and I rounded my left arm and slammed my shield against his cheek. He fell into a coma again, as we expected, and I joined the warband as soon as I was done.

I came at the right time, and the saber-toothed mage's health was empty. I rushed up and made a backhand to make up for it, and he immediately fell to the ground.

Without waiting for Fei Yin to greet me, I had already pounced on the three enemies who were besieging the longbow and shooting the sun. Our dwarven friend has been unusually stoic, and until now, he has about half of his health left - though his mana is almost gone. I raised my metal shield and greeted it, keeping out the battle maniac who was screaming "hum ha-ha-ha-huh" behind me.

The wind roared, and a warhammer swung out from behind me, smashing a saber-toothed wanderer to the ground. It's the Yangtze River Delta, and our orc wanderers have also completed their second smash against the bandit leader and joined us in the battle. All that's left is a race against time, to kill as much as we can before he comes to his senses, that's the only thing we have to do now.

Standing in the front row, I tried to protect my head and face with my shield as much as possible. From time to time, the short knives and daggers of the enemy slashed past me, and the sharp tingling was perhaps too frequent for me to seem numb. I wielded my sword, fighting back the damage I had taken again and again, creating opportunities for my companions behind me. I could have done better—if I had used my skills arbitrarily, but I didn't. I saved up the remaining half of my fighting energy - I thought it might be useful.

As the saber-toothed robber fell, the bandit leader, Ridardis, finally came to his senses. He lifted the huge battle axe at his feet and shouted, "Cherish your last breath, I'm going to kill you all!" "Rushing at us.

"Longbow shoots the sun, hell, why are the lines the same between the two of you?" String Song Yayi put down a saber-toothed assassin with an arrow against his backbone, and laughed and cursed loudly.

"It can't be your relatives, right? Is it your cousin or cousin? The left hand of the Yangtze River Delta stalked insidiously, and a thick blood spring burst out of the throat of the last assassin, and the soul suddenly turned into a ball of white light. After doing this, he didn't forget to make a casual joke in his mouth.

"******, steal my lines!" Longbow Shooting Sun was very upset, and said angrily, "My cousin? I'm his second uncle! Damn, kill them all! Oops, awful ......"

I don't know why, the robber leader who came to his senses ignored anyone, and swung his big axe at the dwarven priest who was talking big. At this time, the magic of the longbow shooting the sun still did not recover, and only half of his life was left. Moreover, he was now only level seven, the lowest level among us, and without the protection of magic, he simply could not withstand the full force of a twelfth-level warrior.

"Don't be afraid, I'll stop him!" I held my shield and stopped in front of Lydades. Now, my life has been cut by less than a third, and my armor is still strong. I was not so arrogant that I thought I would be able to defeat this rampaging bandit leader one-on-one in this situation; But if it were to delay him and buy time for our dwarven priest to reply, I would be the best person to go.

What's more, I still have more than half of my fighting spirit left, and I still have a golden opportunity - a skill that is enough to completely turn the situation around.

Ridardis rushed closer, and for the first time I had looked closely at the man. Bald head, scarface, and the eyes of the yin owl reveal a murderous aura, which makes people feel the strength of this bandit leader. Just looking at him like this, I couldn't help but sweat in my palms.

In his eyes, without my shadow, the longbow shooting the sun is his preferred target for killing. However, I assure you, his reputation has come to an end. As long as I'm standing here, he can't do anything.

I tightened the knuckles of my left hand, waiting for an opportune moment. As he approached me and took that appropriate step, I raised my left arm and met his cheek.

Shield Strike, Shield, Strike!

"Ahh At the moment when my shield was about to hit him in the face, he suddenly roared loudly! This huge roar was rough and wild, with so much power that it even hit my soul directly. At this moment, I suddenly felt a panic. I felt like my heart was empty, something sour and stingy was accumulating in my chest, and I couldn't move, or even breathe.

It's a huge, oppressive force, and it's hard to face it all; But for me, it's harder to admit it all.

Yes, I was scared, in that moment when he roared loudly. His loud voice, his cruel gaze, the mottled rust and blood on his axe...... It all scared me. My mind was empty, curled up like a hamster dodging a feral cat, and I couldn't even lift a finger. It was the most humiliating moment of my life, no matter when I was born, and I was terrified by my enemies.

Ridardis stepped over my head, and in three or two steps he rushed to the side of the longbow to shoot the sun. With no magic and no cover, all the dwarven priest could rely on was his own heroic will and two comical pieces of wood. For a robber armed with an axe, all this is too thin.

So, he died.

Since I went to Sabertooth Mountain, I have seen countless dead people, many of whom have died at my hands. Even in the city of Campunavia, I have seen many dead people—from the mouths of wild beasts, from fighting with themselves, from falling from the walls......

But this was the first time I had seen my adventurous companion die in front of me.

His head was tilted to the side, there was no trace of life in his eyes, and a terrible wound almost severed his neck. His short, sturdy body turned cold, and his lips, which were always laughing and shouting to kill his opponents, turned purple.

…… Originally, I could have saved him......

Fei Yin and the Yangtze River Delta chord song Yayi tried their best, but they did not attract the attention of Ridardis. Three-on-one, even though the opponent was a twelve-level warrior, my three buddies showed their strong explosive power, quickly slashing Ridades' life to about a quarter. But their results have come at a cost. At the moment when I couldn't move, the Yangtze River Delta struggled to push forward while gulping the life potion. But the lethality of the bandit leader is too strong to even keep up with the speed at which the life potion works.

"It's over now, the blood vial is gone!" Finally, the efforts of the orc wanderers came to an end. His health was no longer sustainable, and his life potions had run out. He could only scream helplessly, leaving the bandit leader behind and turning to run. I hope that the potion I just poured will be effective as soon as possible and save my life.

It was difficult, perhaps because his round figure was so big that the bandit leader recognized him and chased after him. As before, no matter how hard our magician tried to attack, he couldn't make Lyddis change his aim—once the chase began, the bow and arrow of the String Song were useless. Although he also worked hard, the effort seemed negligible.

Seeing that the fate of the Yangtze River Delta was on the line, I suddenly found that I could move freely again. A strong thought flooded my mind: I didn't want to see my companions die in front of me again, especially if their casualties were related to me.

Ridardis raised his tomahawk for the last time, and the health of the Yangtze River Delta could definitely not withstand such a loss again.

And I'm at least five steps away from them.

"I'm coming!" For a moment, I don't know what force drove me. My mind was hot, and I seemed to pour all my strength into my right arm, thinking that the robber leader who was committing the murder threw my sword with all his might.

The sword swirled towards the tomahawk-wielding bandit, passing over his neck as the murder weapon was about to fall.

The red and brave body fell helplessly, and the soul turned into white light, nourishing the surviving people.

The green light flickered, and new power flowed through my bones, just like the first time I used Shield Strike.

The sword fell, slammed into the wall, and broke in two.

The Yangtze River Delta is still alive, with a shocked face.
