Chapter 33: The One Who Won't Die
Can't do anything well?
This sentence brought a lot of excitement to Jeffrey, and he gritted his teeth and said word by word in a tone that did not match his appearance at all, "I promise you will pay for it." ”
- Withered Fire!
"Really?" Ryan said softly, "In that case, let me show you where I differ from you, pathetic fellow." ”
- Lost Steps!
Ryan once again consumed a spell from the dagger. At this point, with the exception of the spell obtained after the inauguration of the subclass "Fairy Rover" of "Enchanting Human", Ryan can only cast one more spell now. It's just that Ryan knows the Blight so well, and even though Geoffrey's class is much higher than his, Ryan never fears anything because of it.
……
Confusion!
At this moment, Orpheus's most intuitive feeling is chaos.
He saw that the men from the Mano vigilantes were fighting with the Greenwoods Gang, and he noticed that there was a Tieflin in the latter's ranks; Of course, strictly speaking, it was found that Tieflin and the "sharp-eyed" had little to do with it, and Barakas was so conspicuous in the battlefield that Orpheus arrived at the location of the battle between the two sides and saw this Tieflin knock one of the vigilantes out of the way, and at the same time launch a purgatory call on the other members of the team.
Seeing this, Orpheus couldn't help but shout anymore, "Let's go, go over and help them!" ”
The other six nodded their heads.
Only with absolute conviction and the noble pursuit of justice can one become a holy warrior, which is why every paladin is so jealous and hateful.
In terms of combat skills, unlike most warriors who mainly rely on "wild roads", the fighting skills of each holy warrior are taught by the seniors in the regiment and their own hard training.
Specialized.
Decisive.
It is the best word to evaluate the combat skills of the holy warriors.
The hard work of the usual hard training finally reaped the fruits at this moment.
Most of the members of the Green Forest Gang only make a living by plundering and doing bad things, and they are not good at fighting, and even if this battle was not for Barakas, they would have been defeated at this time, and now with the addition of the seven holy warriors, the advantages that Barakas brought to the entire Green Forest Gang are instantly gone.
Not much.
A strong smell of blood had wafted from the temporary garrison of the entire Green Forest Gang, and both Barakas and the other members of the Green Forest Gang had already died under the sword of Orpheus and his companions.
"Whew."
Orpheus took a deep breath and said to a familiar face in the security team, "Uncle, long time no see!" ”
"Yes, it's been three years," the man called "Uncle" laughed, when Orpheus left Linktown, he was still a newcomer to the security team, and now he has become an old man, "I can't believe that you have really become a paladin!" I remember talking to Captain Mano about this. ”
Orpheus walked over and hugged "Uncle" and said with a smile, "Yes, because I have a lot of love and respect for the Paladin, I left the town and slowly embarked on this path." But if it weren't for Captain Mano's teaching and encouragement, I would never be where I am now. ”
Paladin.
The "uncle" doesn't know much about them, but he just has the impression that many of the people who choose the holy warrior as their professional path are the children of nobles or handsome guys.
However, Orpheus is obviously not a nobleman, and his appearance has nothing to do with "handsome", and he eventually became a holy warrior, and the other six paladins with much better external conditions than him are full of respect and trust for Orpheus.
This made the "uncle" feel a sense of relief inexplicably for a while.
Although, they didn't actually spend much time together.
"By the way, isn't Captain Mano here?"
Orpheus looked around and asked curiously.
"I reckon captain he should be with two youngsters right now with Jeffrey...... Let's fight. ”
"Uncle" was instantly disappointed, and said in a hoarse voice.
"Jeffrey? Warring? Hearing this, Orpheus's face changed, and he couldn't control his emotions a little, and said loudly, "Uncle, what's going on?" ”
And when Orpheus got the answer from the mouth of the "uncle", he could no longer suppress the emotions in his heart, and immediately turned his head and said, "Bass, you stay here to take care of the wounded, I'll go and see them!" ”
……
"Do you know what makes me different from you?"
Ryan covered his abdomen with one hand.
Pain, he could clearly feel an extremely torturous pain. Due to the huge disparity in the levels of the two sides, Jeffrey's attack on himself directly reduced his health to less than two percent.
But it's worth it. Just now, while using Jeffrey's "Touch of Disease" on him, Althea used Aganassa Flame-breathing and Cryo Ray to hit Jeffrey at the same time.
Both spells hit Jeffrey at the same time, and if Althea's class level had been higher, Jeffrey would probably have been a corpse by then, but just as Ryan overestimated Mano's strength, many times the situation was never as perfect as he had originally anticipated.
But things weren't as bad as Ryan thought.
Jeffrey clasped one hand to his chest and glared at Ryan. His wheezing became more pronounced than before, and Ryan didn't know how much "health" the blighted man had left if he used the data to determine how much "health" he had left, but he could be sure that the other party's current state was probably worse than his own.
"Forget it, I'll just say it," Ryan smiled and spoke, "If you were me, did you dare to risk being hit by the 'Touch of Disease' just now?" ”
Jeffrey's eyes narrowed.
"Looks like you understand," Ryan smiled flatly, "The Blighter is a path chosen by the druids who gave up the way of nature, and I don't know what happened to you that forced you to leave the forest and open a tavern in Linktown, and I have no right to interfere with your choice." “
"But you shouldn't take such a shameful shortcut in order to comprehend the way of the wilderness."
"Incompetent and cowardly."
"That's you, Jeffrey."
"You will only resort to such despicable and cowardly means in order to get what you want, and you will never have the courage to live to die like I do."
Jeffrey was silent for a moment, then spoke, "That little girl hasn't cast a spell in a long time, and I guess she's run out of spell slots, right?" ”
"Probably."
Ryan Road.
"And Mano can't be of any use to you right now," Jeffrey sneered, glancing at the captain of the vigilante who had been lying on the ground for a long time, "so you think you can defeat me alone?" ”
"Yes."
Ryan Road.
"You're going to die, Ryan," Jeffrey's tone froze, "even though I'm in a much worse position than you are right now, you're just a low-level Ranger. And I am a wither, and the gap between me and you is not something that can be easily bridged casually. ”
"Why don't you understand?" Ryan shook his head and said softly, "I'm not going to die, Jeffrey. ”
