"The group in front of them is heading northwest, and the Serpent Mercenary Regiment is nowhere to be seen!" said Moller to Urruti what he had observed through the Magic Eye. Urruti frowned and thought for a moment, she was very suspicious of the Fire Serpent mercenary group that never appeared, this mercenary group has always acted cunningly, and people have to be careful. But the most important thing at the moment is to find a camp for the night first!

"You can't get to the area where the treasure is before dark, and everyone has to find a safe enough place to live. The biggest threat in this ruin is the birds of prey in the air and the earth demon scorpion under their feet, if there is no safe place to live at night, even the strong of high-level strength will definitely die!"

Moller had also learned about the dangers of the ruins of Granence City before he arrived, and the most interesting of them were the bird monsters and the earth demon scorpions.

The Bird Monster is a mysterious Rank 8 Magical Beast, the most powerful of all the birds of prey in the sky above Granence, with a body of invisible feathers that can be refracted and invisible, and is a terrifying killer who cannot be found.

The Earth Demon Scorpion is a monster that can create quicksand traps, they can stir the sand like a stream of water, and the prey they target often sink into the ground at night without warning.

"Well, now it's time for the real highlight. Urruti added: "From the direction where the group left, I can probably infer where they are going to stay, it is a good place, but I have a better place to go, just to take a little risk." From now on, let's compete with them to see who gets to the treasure first!"

Urruti said that he was fifty miles away, and it was less than two hours before dark, which was a very risky decision for them who had already been on the road for a long time, and it would be difficult to get there before the sun went down without remembering the mana consumption.

However, Moeller did not object to this decision, not only because he had confidence in Urruti, an experienced mercenary master, but also because he hid a seventh-order demonic beast mount, and in case he couldn't catch up by then, it was just exposing a hole card in advance.

And so the rapid march against time began, and Urruti was like a red phantom, leaping between the ruins of the ruins. Moller and Ereba had to use all their light tricks to keep up, and they felt better at first, but after fifteen miles, both of them began to gasp. Uruti in front of him never slowed down, and because he knew that the time was pressing, neither of them mentioned resting, but just gritted their teeth and held on.

However, only a little more than half of the journey passed, and the accident happened. Uruti, who was running in front, suddenly let out a startled sound, and the advancing figure suddenly folded, as if pulled by an invisible rope, and quickly rolled to the side to dodge.

Moller, who was in the rear, clearly saw a large bright yellow flower the size of a basin emerging from behind the broken wall in front of Urruti and shooting several black rays towards Uruti.

Fortunately, Uruti's rapidly tumbling body narrowly dodged the attack of the black mang, she got up from the ground, and the javelin in her hand shook, and unexpectedly spewed out a burst of flames, burning the bright yellow flower to black.

The bright yellow flower twitched a few times as if she felt pain, but Urruti did not stop, only to see her javelin thrust into the crack in the rock of the broken wall, and the javelin head sank into the rock lightly, two feet deep. Then she shook her javelin, and a red light burst out along the crack in the rock, and with a crisp "click", a rock weighing several tons and three or four cubic meters was broken by her with a javelin, and smashed towards the place where the bright yellow flower came out.

There was a piercing squeak like dozens of loaches screaming together from the place where it was hit by the rock, and Moller then arrived, and probed with mental power, and was surprised to find that in the gap was a gray-brown vine, with no leaves, the thickness of a wrist, and a few large bright yellow flowers bloomed on the barbed vine, which was pressed by the heavy rock block, but still writhing like a snake and struggling.

"This is a poison arrow flower that only existed in the hills before, how did it come here!" Moller was a little surprised, this magic plant was supposed to live in the rocky pillar hills inhabited by sandworms that they had crossed before, and they usually only came out to hunt at night, but they didn't expect to encounter one in the Granence ruins in broad daylight!

"It doesn't matter how it came about, whether it's animals or plants, habitats change!" Urruti said, and the javelin spewed a stream of flames beneath the crack, burning the poisoned arrow flower to death.

However, this poisonous arrow flower was only the beginning of bad luck, after driving another five miles, there was a sudden sound of wings flapping in the sky, it sounded like a large bird of prey approaching, but the sound seemed to come from all directions, making it impossible to distinguish its specific direction.

In the process of hurrying, Moller had been distracted to control the magic eye, so that it was always suspended above everyone's heads, but at this time, the sound of wings flapping seemed to be very close, but there was no trace of any enemy in the demon eye.

Urruti reacted first and shouted, "Damn, it's a bird monster!" Everyone leaned closer to the nearby wall and paid attention to the changes in the air currents nearby!"

She can't help but be angry, although the bird monster has a long reputation in the Granence Ruins, but in fact it rarely appears, even in the original period when a large number of mercenaries were digging for treasure here, there were only a few cases of bird monsters attacking people, but they didn't expect to be encountered by them not long after entering the ruins!

Moller then reacted as well, and as he ran after Urruti to the half-collapsed wall next to him, he beckoned Eriba to quickly turn on his defenses - he gave Eriba a Tier 8 Protective Crystal before he left, in order to save his life in the event of such a sudden event.

The sound of wings flapping was getting closer, and the bird monster must have been above them, but no one knew who it would choose to attack.

The results soon came out, and Moller, who was running, suddenly felt the wind beat his body behind his head, as if he was facing away from the tuyere of a large blower, and the bird monster was aiming at him!

The choice was not surprising - Urruti had javelin weapons, Eriba had already put up his defenses, neither of them seemed to be easy to deal with, except for Moller, who was holding Rex, who seemed to be the easiest to attack - not only was he defenseless, but he also came with a small snack.

Moller in the wind did not panic, and with his free hand he pulled a scroll from his sleeve and threw it above his head.

"Boom!" The scroll burned, quickly expanding into a net of fire, enveloping the space within a radius of twenty or thirty meters with Moeller as the center, and the outline of a large bird appeared five or six meters behind his head, and the big bird that was startled by the flames let out a strange cry like a night owl, gave up the intention of attacking, flapped its wings and hurriedly flew away from the range of flames.

Moller, who was also shrouded in flames, vibrated the magic strings that controlled the elements in his body, isolating the flames around his body, avoiding the danger of himself and Rex being burned by the flames, and although the fire burned extremely fast and looked huge, it was actually not powerful, and its role was not in terms of lethality.

This is a fifth-order "Dirty Fire Scroll", often used to mark invisible targets, and Moller's purpose in using the special black smoke produced by the flame burning is extremely attached to dye the bird's feathers and break its stealth ability.

Sure enough, after the fire quickly dissipated, a large transparent bird covered in ink appeared in the air, this big bird with a wingspan of more than eight meters is different from ordinary birds, its wings are more like the forelimbs of a reptile, but covered with huge feathers, the head is like an eagle, but the beak is flat and large, as if it can swallow an entire adult, and the tail is thick and long like a gecko, but it is also covered with feathers, in Moller's eyes, this guy is a bit like the archaeopteryx in the archaeological documentary.

The bird's stealth was broken, and the threat was immediately reduced by half, and Urruti shouted hello, and instead of running towards the broken wall, he turned and moved closer to Moller, and as he ran, Ereba pulled out a magic arrow with a cluster of silver arrows from the magic bag that served as an quiver, and aimed it at the birdie that was still hovering in the air.

The arrow made an arc and flew precisely into the eye of the bird monster, but the bird monster only waved its forelimbs, and it set off a strong wind, and the magic arrow that was blown away could not get close to it.

Urruti said to Ereba who had gathered around, "It's useless, if you want to shoot this guy, you can't penetrate its wind defense unless you can shoot an armor-piercing arrow!"

Armor-piercing arrows are a great killer for archers, with extremely penetrating power, and are the nemesis of mage shields and heavy cavalry armor on the battlefield, but in order to shoot such arrows, in addition to the necessary superb archery skills, you must also have more strength than an intermediate samurai, or have a high-level magic bow with powerful magical power.

Eriba didn't meet either of these conditions, so he didn't even prepare the armor-piercing arrows, so he had to put away his plan to hurt the bird monster and shoot some ordinary arrows instead to interfere with his vision.

The bird monster in the air was furious, and the hateful humans not only startled it by setting fire, but also soiled its precious feathers, so it simply withdrew its stealth, revealing its black-red feathers in the sunlight - its back was as black as ink, but its belly was bright red as blood. It glared fiercely at Moeller and the others below with its egg-yellow eyes, and spewed out a gust of wind with its huge mouth.

At first, it was just a slender whirlwind like a gray rope, but it soon spread into a tornado with a diameter of more than ten meters, falling towards the top of Moeller's head.

The magic power of the 8th-order demonic beast was very powerful, and before the tornado really fell, Moller and Eriba were already almost unstable, only Urruti was still holding the javelin, and her body was standing as if it had taken root.

In addition to melee combat, javelinmen can also throw javelins to attack from a distance, and the power of throwing javelins is huge, which can be described as a fatal blow, but because the interval between attacks after a blow is too large, there is often only one chance to shoot, so the timing of the attack must be accurate.

At this time, Moller took the 8th-order protective magic crystal in Ereba's hand, expanded the shield held up by the magic crystal, and completely blocked the tornado from everyone, and then he took out a bottle of crimson potion that was bubbling like magma, unplugged the crystal potion bottle, and poured it into his stomach with a flickering neck.

After drinking the potion, Moeller's whole body soon turned red as if he had taken a sauna. Rex was not nervous at all during this kind of big battle, and when he saw his brother change the color he liked, he grunted and laughed, and touched it with his hand, it was quite hot - he could feel that the change of Brother Moeller was not only not dangerous, but there was a powerful fire magic in his body, although it was an external force, but it increased its strength.

The tornado lasted for about half a minute and began to dissipate, and Moeller, who had turned into a red man, opened his mouth to the sky, and actually spewed out a red flame, this flame was as thick as magma, but it rose very lightly, and in a blink of an eye, a sea of fire was formed, and it crashed towards the bird monster in the air.

The power of this flame is not something that a magician like Moller who has just reached the middle level of strength can wield, in fact, its power comes from the bottle of potion that Molten Molten Potion drank earlier, this kind of potion called Molten Elixir is one of the attack potions, but it is not used externally but internally, also known as spellcasting potions, as the name suggests, it is a potion that can help the caster release magic.

With the help of the spellcasting potion, the molten flame that Moeller spit out at this time was the flame of the sixth-order melting technique, although the bird monster was an eighth-order demonic beast, but it was not strong enough to ignore the sixth-order magic flame, so it quickly flapped its wings and slapped a strong wind, the power of this wind was extremely strong, and the sea of fire that rushed over was scattered from the middle with one blow.

However, the sea of fire that was scattered suddenly twisted, turning into more than a dozen pillars of flame and crashing towards the bird monster, it was Moller who shook the magic strings in his body to control the scattered molten flames, the bird monster was defenseless in the face of this sudden attack, and had no time to resist so he hurriedly dodged to the side, but at this moment, another arrow flew in front of him, Eriba's arrow, a piece of magic bomb with a fire was tied to the arrow shaft, and the time was just right, and before the bird monster used the wind magic to blow the arrow away, the magic bomb exploded.

Hit by the impact of the explosion of the magic bomb on the arrow at close range, the bird monster was not injured even if it had magic protection, but it couldn't help but roll backwards, and at this moment, Uruti, who had been waiting for the opportunity, suddenly turned her wrist, and the javelin was held on her shoulder, and the whole person jumped up, and her body was like a spring that suddenly bounced back after being twisted, and threw the javelin in her hand towards the bird monster.

The javelin that was thrown was like a lightning bolt with red light, and a phantom of a roaring golden lion's head was formed near the head of the spear, which hit the bird monster that happened to be unable to control its body shape at this time almost in the blink of an eye, only to see the red lightning pass through it, and a blood hole appeared in the bird monster's ribs, and it screamed bitterly, struggling to fly into the distance.
