Chapter Eighty-Four: See Who Hides Deeply
"You, what are you doing?" Candace was startled and suddenly stood up, there seemed to be Phoebe about to untie her clothes and go to bed, when she saw Han Shuo rushing over, she was also startled, and quickly pulled up her clothes belt, looking at Han Shuo with a panicked expression.
"Grover's people and the 'afterimage' people are coming over together, don't talk nonsense, think about how to deal with it!" Han Shuo had a gloomy face and roared at the two flustered women.
As soon as these words came out, Candace was still a little suspicious, and her expression was about to express her doubts, but Phoebe had a solemn face and shouted: "Candace listens to him, Brian can't be mistaken!"
Candace didn't believe Han Shuo, but she believed in Phoebe, and when she heard Phoebe say this, she immediately drew her broadsword behind her, nodded to Phoebe, and rushed out like a fire shadow, and Candace's whispered warning was immediately heard outside the house.
Phoebe didn't talk nonsense, she casually took a robe from the edge of the bed and put it on, the space ring suddenly lit up, and Phoebe already had an extra long sword in her hand that flickered with cold light.
Nodding to Phoebe, Han Shuo quickly came outside the house and saw that Candace was standing outside the house, whispering something.
Han Shuo relied on the vision of the Yuan Demon, closed his eyes and suddenly spoke: "One hundred meters on the left, three people are approaching, two warriors and one mage, this mage is Ellis, a high-level mage of the wind system. Directly in front of him, a magister with four warriors and an archer, one hundred and thirty meters away, sneaking from the roof, should be the person of the 'afterimage'. In an alley fifty meters to the right, a few people are lurking, and it seems that a trap is being arranged......"
As if he was in the scene, Han Shuo, with his eyes closed, kept describing in detail the locations of the several people who were approaching quickly. Candace didn't believe it at first, and he didn't believe that he was so far away, and he could still detect people's movements so clearly, but as soon as Phoebe walked out of the room, she immediately began to follow Han Shuo's description and asked Candace to arrange for people to defend.
"Miss Phoebe, this time I want you to be ready to retreat. In my estimation, I don't think we're necessarily their opponents even with you, the swordsman, and if things don't go well, I hope you don't miss this place. But no matter how dangerous it is, don't retreat to the right, it's a dead end!" Han Shuo suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Phoebe as he solemnly spoke.
"Thank you Brian, I know what to do, you have to be careful yourself!" Phoebe trusted Han Shuo very much, seeing Han Shuo warning herself so solemnly, she immediately understood that this time would definitely be very thrilling, and immediately nodded solemnly to show that she understood.
Taking a deep breath, Han Shuo took out the Demon Slaying Blade and held it in the palm of his hand, examining the dagger hidden on his body and the steel needle on his leg. Then, with the crossbow in his left hand, his body jumped to a big tree next to him, the shadow of the house just hid Han Shuo's body completely, and Han Shuo stared at the left side without moving.
"Sure enough, everyone be careful to disperse!" Phoebe, who was a swordsman, finally heard the sound of footsteps, and rejoiced in her heart for her trust in Han Shuo, and glanced at Candace beside her.
It was only at this time that Candace looked at Han Shuo hidden in the darkness in horror, she never thought that Han Shuo was really so magical, a distance of a hundred meters, not only could she detect the movement of people, as if there were a pair of eyes in the sky, and the movement of the enemy was also clearly perceived.
After all, Candace was a mercenary who had experienced a lot of battles, and after a brief period of horror, after glancing at Phoebe, the two of them jumped at the same time, hiding on both sides of Han Shuo's body, also hiding their bodies in the shadows.
"Cloth ...... Brian, can you tell me slowly about the enemy's movements, so that I can tell the people below to be careful. Candace and Han Shuo were separated by more than a meter, and said in a slight voice.
Keeping this posture unchanged, even his expression did not change in any way, Han Shuo's voice was low, and he faintly told the enemy's traces in detail. Candace held a magic prop in her hand, and through the magic prop, she gave instructions to the mercenaries who were ambushed in other directions in the courtyard.
The three of Grover's side, led by Ellis, were the first to arrive, and they stayed on the roof of a nearby house. Han Shuo and the others stood still, until the Demon Master who was suspended in the void, with several "Remnant" masters, appeared in front of the main gate, and then they held their breath and were ready to make a move.
I didn't see how the magister moved, but I saw that his body was completely shrouded in black robes, and he used an inaudible voice to chant a few incantations, and suddenly there were strong magical fluctuations around Phoebe's residence, and then as if there was a big earthquake, all the rooms began to shake violently.
At the same time, the four warriors behind him quickly dispersed, and one archer retreated to the roof of a nearby building, condescendingly surveying everything around him. Seeing the earth tremble violently like a giant beast awakening, Ellis nodded to the two warriors in front of him, and the two of them jumped and fell into the courtyard below.
"Whoosh Whoosh"
Five arrows suddenly revealed in the darkness, like five stalking, violent vipers in a deep pool, biting at the two fallen warriors. These two people have been hiding their tracks, but they didn't expect that when they came down, they were attacked by a rapid attack, and they were shocked in their hearts, and they hurriedly swung their swords to resist.
Three of the arrows were cut off, one was dodged by the two, and only Phoebe shot the one that was nailed to the calf of one of the warriors. As soon as the two of them fell, they had already triggered the enchantment arranged there, and three thunderbolts suddenly appeared in the sky, and under the illumination of the thunder and lightning, Han Shuo clearly saw that there were wires as thin as hair, these wires were entangled with each other, and when the two of them landed, their ankles happened to be entangled by these wires.
Through the wire, the light spread in an instant, forming a bright silver net of strong electricity in that area, and the two of them spasmed, and their mouths let out a terrible howl. The uninjured man was shocked, and with a quick swing of his sword, he cut the wire and left, and another warrior with an arrow in the leg and stomach slowly collapsed into the power grid with foaming at the mouth and scorched hair.
"It's not good, there's an ambush!" Ellis, who was about to follow the same just now, suddenly shouted when he saw that the two fighters had been hit, and reminded the killer of the "afterimage" who was attacking head-on.
There were two "pops", the main gate was torn apart, and four black-clothed warriors rushed in with swords. Patrolling the courtyard in two directions, the magister hovered into the courtyard, his left hand wrapped in long black sleeves, and as he danced, the surrounding rooms collapsed one after another with a violent earthquake.
Two of the people of the War Mercenary Regiment who were lurking in the surrounding rooms were directly stoned to death by the collapsed house. The other three also had to rush out, all standing in the courtyard with their weapons in hand, but Han Shuo took a look and found that there was only one high-level swordsman left, a mid-level mage of the thunder and lightning system, and an archer.
With a wave of the magic wand in the magister's hand, a huge magic fluctuation reappeared, and three ice-pick-like earth dragons suddenly broke through the ground and stabbed towards the three people of the war mercenary group that appeared. The senior swordsman and the intermediate mage dodged in time, but they reacted quickly and fled to the side before the catastrophe came, and the other archer held the bow and arrow and focused on the magister, but before he could launch, he was already hit by the earth dragon that suddenly rose from the soles of his feet to the chest, and the huge force killed him on the spot.
Han Shuo, who was calmly controlling his breathing, clearly sensed Phoebe and Candace next to him, and his breathing increased at the same time, and it seemed that because of the death of this person, the calm that the two of them had been maintaining was immediately gone.
Then Phoebe and Candace shot their crossbow arrows at the same time and flew towards the earth magister who had released the earth dragon. The momentum of the two crossbow arrows was powerful, but unfortunately, after the magister waved his left hand, a wall suddenly rose on the ground, and the crossbow arrows of the two shot at the wall, without causing any damage to the murderer.
"In the shadows of the tree!" Ellis did not hide his voice again, and suddenly spoke in the original voice, and along with his voice was the whistling sound of the wind blade.
Phoebe and Candace immediately jumped out of Han Shuo's side as soon as they heard the sound of the wind blade attacking. Phoebe held the long sword in her hand, blooming with dazzling light, and rushed towards the magister as fast as she could, and the broadsword in Candace's hand flew into a soaring tongue of fire, making Candace become a fire spirit in the darkness, and approached Ellis directly and quickly.
Han Shuo, who was holding a crossbow arrow, lurked motionless in the shadow of the big tree, not even making a move to resist the attacking wind blade. Several wind blades cut through the branches, and two more wind blades hit Han Shuo's waist, but Han Shuo gritted his teeth and held on, staying there without moving at all, even his breathing and heartbeat remained at an astonishingly steady level.
Phoebe and Candace flew out of the tree, completely igniting the fierce battle, because the earth magister came up with a major earthquake that destroyed the house, which made many of the traps set by the war mercenary group invalid. Phoebe knew how terrible a Magus could be, so she recognized this Magus and immediately killed it with all her might.
As soon as Phoebe moved, two of the "remnant" high-level swordsmen immediately converged with the magister. Facing Phoebe with a combination of two battles and one method, an archer with an "afterimage" in the distance, together with two other swordsmen, plus Ellis, began to attack several people in the Battle Fire Mercenary Map.
Candace wielded a broadsword, and every swing of the broadsword rippled into a tongue of fire, and the broadsword bloomed with dazzling light in the night, forcing the wind mage Ellis to retreat.
With the help of the wind power, Ellis acted quickly, and the wind blade tornado attacked Candace in the rapid retreat, and when a middle-level swordsman from the "Afterimage" rushed to Ellis to work with him to deal with Candace, the originally majestic Candace suddenly looked a little difficult.
By this time, both Phoebe's side, Ellis and the people of the "Remnant" had all been exposed to the incomplete courtyard. Han Shuo was the only one in the field, and he had been hiding in the darkness, and he was still patient with two wind blades on his body, waiting for the best time to attack.
Phoebe and Candace, who were also falling behind, couldn't help but look forward to it a little more in their depressed hearts when they saw that Han Shuo had not come out there. The two women were both smart people, and they had already guessed what Han Shuo was trying to hide there with his injuries, and they both understood that they were leading their opponents in the direction of the big tree.
After a while, Phoebe and Candace, who were facing the enemy hard, gathered under the tree where Han Shuo was hiding at the same time, and were blocked by the Magister and Ellis.
"Beautiful Miss Phoebe, after a few battles, I have great admiration for your strength. But this time, you'll never have any chances, I'm sorry!" Ellis chuckled softly, and as soon as he finished speaking, the wind howled in front of him, forming a violent tornado, and the broken trees and broken stones around him were all carried into the air by the tornado, and rolled towards Phoebe and Candace.
The Magister didn't say a word, and with one left hand, four tall walls of earth rose from the ground, trapping Phoebe and Candace like a cage.
Phoebe's long sword swung up a blinding milky white light, and the light formed a figure of ten, blasting through a wall of earth and leaping out with Candace. At this time, a few swordsmen who had been waiting next to him immediately began to attack Phoebe and Candace, and Ellis had a grim smile on his face, gathering spiritual power and slowly engulfing the tornado through the two.
At this moment, a crossbow arrow pierced the sky and suddenly shot at the earth-based magister who was shrouded in black robes. On the side of the magister, a swordsman next to him waved his crossbow arrow away, and at this moment, a bone spear appeared out of thin air, with a sharp whistling sound, and shot at the magister as well.
The Magister seemed to be a little impatient, his left hand was slightly opened, and the earth-based magic condensed, and a stone slab on the ground flew out with a bang, smashing the bone spear that shot at him.
The Magister had just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to search for the enemy lurking in the shadows, when a terrible howl suddenly sounded, and not far away, Ellis covered his chest and looked up at the tree above him with a look of fear. A sharp weapon, like a poisonous dragon, roared out of his chest.
"Poof"
A blood arrow flew out of Ellis's chest uncontrollably, Ellis turned his head to the sky, and suddenly fell to his knees on the ground, then paused, and fell straight back.
