Chapter Twenty-Five: Inviting Hawke to the team
Just as Lista and Fiona were holding their breath and preparing for the next big battle, Hawke, who was in front of them, tilted his body and fell directly in front of them.
Lista walked over and poked Hawke with a wary face, and after making sure that he had passed out, he breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the ground, and waved to Fiona not far away.
"It's okay, I've passed out, I guess it's the same as before."
With Lista's words, Fiona hurriedly ran towards the black goblin, and after a while, she finally found a sheepskin scroll from the goblin.
When Fiona turned to come out, she happened to meet Karui walking in from outside, and as she walked, he was still pulling the blow arrow stuck in her body.
Karui: "Brother Lista, Brother Hawke, what's wrong?" I was worried that you wouldn't be able to catch up with that goblin, and I was about to come in and help you, but I didn't expect you to solve it. ”
Lista waved his hand and said a little tiredly: "Let's go back and talk slowly, we can't stay here for long, it is estimated that the support of the goblins will come up soon, Fiona, have you found the documents we are looking for?" ”
Fiona shook the parchment roll in her hand and replied easily, "I got it, let's go." ”
However, when it came to the question of leaving, the eyes of the three all fell on Hawke, and now that Hawke was unconscious, he couldn't go back by himself.
Lista and Fiona's eyes turned to Karui at the same time, and among the people present, Karui was the only one who could be the same size as Hawke.
Karui was helpless, pointed to the many scars on his body, and said with a sad wail: "No, look at the wounds on my body, this still contains toxins, do you really bear it?" ”
Fiona came over and patted him on the shoulder, pretending to be weak, and said, "Karui, you look at me as a girl, can you really bear to let me carry such a strong man?" ”
Karui didn't speak with a dark face, but just looked at Lista and asked, "Brother Lista, do you want to say that you are delicate?" ”
Lista coughed twice in embarrassment, silently got up from the ground, and moved his body, but he wanted to find a reason, but he found that he didn't seem to be hurt, and he had to bend down to put Hokla on his back.
It's just that Hawke is really taller, even if he is carried on his back by Lista, his head is already pressed on Lista's head, and his legs are still dragging on the ground.
Before he reached the exit, Karui's head had already hit the cliff wall many times, and Karui, who was carrying Hawke's greatsword on his side, couldn't look at it, reached out and scooped Hawke onto his shoulder, and then threw the greatsword to Lista.
When he returned to Kuhan and went to report, only Lista and Fiona were left, and both Hawke and Karui were sent to the Institute of Magic to treat his reluctant Brin.
Deyun opened the parchment scroll that the two of them brought back, but it was full of demon characters, and she couldn't read any of them.
Deyun: "It's all Demon script, and you have to find someone who is proficient in Demon script to know what is written on it." ”
Adan: "Demon text? Show me, I've learned some of the demon characters before. ”
Adan took the parchment and looked at it carefully for a while before he began to read it aloud.
Adan: "Imuk, the Chaos Grass you are looking for can be found in places where there are no living forms and where the Great Serpent gathers. ”
Thinking of this, Ai Dan paused, and several people waited quietly for a while, but they didn't see anything for a long time.
Feeling the gazes of several people, Ai Dan suddenly put down the parchment roll, and then said: "It's written like this, and there is nothing else." ”
Several people couldn't help but be disappointed, in their imagination, the documents that could be sent so painstakingly were not battle plans, but also important information, how could it be such an ordinary trivial matter?
Deyun: "Chaos Grass? Is it Shadow Grass? Who is signing? ”
Adan: "It's just Shaka." ”
Lista and Fiona didn't feel much about the name, but Deyun quickly frowned, as if she had thought of something.
Deyun: "Shaka...... Could it be that he is the commander-in-chief of the demon race......"
Hearing her reminder, Adan also immediately remembered.
Adam: "Commander-in-Chief of the Demon Race...... Could it be the ......? ”
Deyun: "Yes, Shanin Shaka is the commander-in-chief of the demon forces stationed in the Fabelo Plains. Contrary to his massive physique, he was a very intelligent, quick-witted ogre. ”
After confirming what they were thinking, a look of sadness appeared on both Deyun and Aidan's faces, and the matter was far more serious than they thought.
Deyun: "Looks like I'll have to report to Lord Cardin...... The situation is even more serious than imagined, and under the direct order of Shaka, the demons have begun to act, but the Knights of the Kingdom have not noticed it until now...... But from now on, let's start first. The purpose of the demon clan is already clear, and we can't sit idly by, Aidan, how many people can the mercenary group send to attack the goblin gathering place at present. ”
"According to statistics, there are only 20 mercenaries with combat power at present, plus Fiona, Lista, Karui, and Hawke," and before Aidan could look at Kaiara on the side, she read it out from her notebook.
Hearing this, Adan immediately opened his mouth and ordered: "Fiona, Lista, you two immediately send the order to assemble, gather men, and attack the Ice Valley Goblin Gathering Place early tomorrow morning." Do you understand? ”
Lista and Fiona: "Understood! ”
The situation was serious, and the two immediately went to inform all the people of the mercenary group to prepare, and after everyone was informed, the two came to the magic research institute together.
At this time, Karui's body had almost recovered, and Hawke was still unconscious, and Brin was pouring potions into Hawke's body with Karui's assistance.
Brin: "Can you not be so desperate every time, my magic potions here are almost used up by a few of you." ”
Fiona: "I'm afraid it's not going to run out this time, but it's going to be used up directly, Brin, we're here to inform you that the mercenary group is going to send twenty people to fight this time, and in two days, I hope you can configure enough magic potions to assist us in the battle." ”
Brin: "Twenty? It's almost all dispatched, what are you going to do, it's such a big battle. ”
Hearing Fiona's words, Brin was also a little shocked, the last time he dispatched such a large scale was when he surrounded and suppressed the Red Fury Chieftain, could it be that he encountered such a strong enemy again this time?
Fiona: "We can already confirm that the goblins in the Ice Valley are related to the demons, so Deyun and Leader Edan agreed to strike first, and let the mercenary group eradicate the goblins in the Ice Valley first. ”
Brynn's brow tightened, he probably didn't expect the matter to be serious, and after a moment of thought, he handed Hawke over to Karui completely, and he turned and walked into the inner room.
The veins on Bryn's head flaret up slightly: "Forget it, this is what Tyr told me to help you." ”
"Don't let anyone bother me these two days, I will prepare enough medicine for you."
The door to the inner room was shut, and Karui cracked Hawke's mouth open and poured all the potions from the bowl into him.
After a while, Hawke, who was still unconscious, woke up slowly, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to grab the big sword beside the hospital bed and hold it in his hand.
Hawke: "I heard it all in my coma, there's another battle to be fought, isn't it?" ”
Several people in the room laughed helplessly.
......
The two days passed quickly, and the people of the mercenary group gathered together, led by Adan himself, although there were only about 20 people, they also headed towards the ice valley.
Since Lista was the one who had discovered the goblin gathering, a few of them walked with Edan at the forefront to lead the way for everyone.
After being silent all the way, they soon arrived outside the gathering place, and with such a large-scale sortie, the goblins had already detected their movements, so when they arrived, the goblins were already in full array.
There were no words, the battle between the two sides was about to break out, and Lista and the others took the lead in rushing into the goblin gathering, compared to the previous battles, this battle made Lista feel more relaxed.
The four of them had no effective means of dealing with long-range attacks before, and they could only be beaten passively in the face of goblins' blowing arrows and slingshots, etc., but this time there were archers among the people dispatched, and some people with shields to focus on defense, which made their offensive pressure much less.
And the happiest among them are probably Hawke and Karui, Hawke can let go of his hands and feet to kill, and no one will stop him, and Karui was previously a meat shield defense existence, and now he can fully release his wildness and focus on the enemy in front of him.
The huge bodies of the two of them, like two meat grinders, rampaged through the goblin swarm, harvesting the lives of the goblins.
I thought it would be a one-sided battle, but suddenly, a loud horn sounded, and then, a dozen or so goblins who were significantly larger than the other goblins rushed into the battlefield from the passage next to them, followed by a big goblin wearing spiked armor.
The sound of the horn just now was blown out by the goblins in spiked armor, and all the goblins became fearless of death as if they had been beaten with chicken blood for a while, and their attack speed increased greatly.
And Hawk and Karui, who rushed to the front, also encountered obstacles, and each of them was stopped by two elite goblins in front of them, and they couldn't get rid of it for a while.
Aidan: "That's the goblin patriarch, it seems that the other party is all elite, everyone is attacking with all their strength, be sure to destroy them all!" ”
Hearing this, Lista exchanged glances with Fiona, and both of them set their sights on the goblin patriarch.
Fury! Thunder rage! Lista quickly shuttled through the battlefield, bypassing the elite goblins who stood in her way at breakneck speed, the tip of her sword pointed directly at the goblin patriarch.
"Dang!"
The blade slashed across the armor, bringing out a burst of brilliant sparks, and the goblin patriarch calmly and calmly, the two spiked heavy shields in both hands rubbed their fists and sparked, and the double shields smashed down, smashing the ground into a huge hole.
Adan: "Lista, attack the joints and joints of his armor, that's where his defenses are weak!" ”
