Chapter 17: Caught off guard

Almost at the same time that Curt was attacked, Lizzie was also targeted.

The decaying soil on the ground beside her was lifted up by the tremendous force that poured out of the ground, and the originally thick dust and earth stones suddenly danced in the air along with a few stems of weeds. The monster seemed to be prepared, and pounced on Lizzie, who had passed by completely unsuspectingly.

Oscar stood up and tried to keep up with Lizzie. So this scene is abruptly displayed in the line of sight. The creepy monster emerges from the ground, and the dark shadow obscures the dwarf Lizzie next to her. The monster's terrifying fangs were like guillotines and bitten hard at her, who had a proud and untamed expression on her face not long ago.

"Miss Lizzie!"

He subconsciously called out the girl's name, as if hoping that this girl, who had just known her for a short time, but who was very powerful in all aspects, would have time to avoid this deadly attack. The girl looked at the big mouth in a daze as if she was stunned.

When the girl's name was called, Oscar had already reflexively raised his hand to mobilize his magic to condense a flash gun. Only then did he remember that he still had the gathering gloves in his hands, but he didn't have time to take them off and drive the spell slowly.

Damn! it's too late.

Oscar wasn't in such a hurry, he even wanted to inject all his mana into the magic machine at once, so that the spell drive could get faster - but such an act was in vain after all, the mana processing capacity of the civil magic machine could not allow him to have too fast operation, and the excess magic power escaped in one breath, turning into pure heat, almost making the gloves on his hands burn.

The spell he once trusted seemed extremely empty at this moment, and just as he reluctantly injected magic power into the magic machine and lit up the Rubik's cube with a vibrant brilliance, the guillotine was almost on the girl's face, and the mucus carrying the poison was almost dripping onto the girl's face.

- Catch up!

The Flash Gun technique is fairly simple, from infusing mana to channeling the cast structure to locking onto the target, and it only takes a few seconds. In the past, Oscar had never cared about the speed of time, and it was only then that he desperately prayed that he could drive his spells faster.

Finally, the spell drive ended, and several flashing spears flew out of the Rubik's Cube, shooting at the monster that burst out from the ground at an extremely fast speed. The magic that had just escaped seemed to be ripped away when the flash gun was fired, wrapping Oscar's light gun in a subtle glow.

Whew-

With his spell, there seemed to be a gust of wind rolling in the silent cavern, but this only made Oscar, who was already covered in cold sweat, even colder. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to watch someone he had only known for a long time die here in such a miserable manner. Besides, he also knew that what this sharp-mouthed and venomous girl had done was just telling him the right way to act from the other direction.

It's just that Oscar, who is an apprentice, is not good at managing magic, and the few flash spear techniques he weaves in a hurry are almost using up all his magic power. The feeling of detachment from the inside of his body as his mana was exhausted made him almost unable to stand still, and he staggered a few steps, almost falling to his knees.

Bang! Bang bang - bang!

In the blink of an eye, Oscar's flash shot hit the black monster one after the other—unfortunately, despite the successive attacks of several magic spears, the monster remained unmoved, as if it didn't care at all about the spell that Oscar had cast with almost all of his magical power.

Click!

The monster's fangs snapped together, making a piercing grinding sound. The continuous bombardment of flash guns and the smoke and dust brought up by the monster rush out scattered in all directions, completely covering the nearby scene. In the next second, the monster's pitch-black bang hit the place where Lizzie was standing without offset.

Oscar stared blankly at where the monster was and muttered, "How come..."

The companion who was still communicating disappeared under the monster's claws in an instant, and his own rescue action did not have any effect at all. Oscar, who had never seen an actual fight, couldn't help but be stunned.

Bang!

But the truth is cruel, and the enemy will not give up on the attack because of his astonishment. From Oscar's side, another monster of a slightly smaller size swooped out of the rotten soil. It imitated the monster that pounced on Lizzie, locking a pair of fangs onto Oscar, who was already unable to muster up the strength to fight.

Oops –

Fortunately, at the moment of the moment, Oscar was pulled out of his stunned place by a loud bang. It was too late to get him out of the danger zone, but he knew he couldn't sit still. So he turned the shield on his wrist with all his strength to protect his body as much as possible.

Click!

The wooden shield let out a mournful roar.

"Uh..."

Despite the desperate defense, Oscar barely fended off the monster's attack from under the rotten leaf. A huge crack was instantly added to the wooden surface of the shield, and it was conceivable that if this blow was all hit, he would definitely be seriously injured.

Whew-

The moment he thought he was safe, a strong wind with great force swept over.

It turned out that after the raid was blocked, the monster's offensive did not stop. It shortened its body slightly, and immediately connected it with its forelimbs with a sweep. The limbs tore through the air, leaving an afterimage in midair. Seeing that the situation was not good, Oscar twisted desperately to avoid the vital point.

But this time the god of luck did not seem to favor him.

"Whew!"

The monster's swept foreleg hit Oscar in the flank with precision. In an instant, a sharp pain that was enough to paralyze the head spread wildly through Oscar's body. The qiē in the line of sight was greatly distorted in an instant, and then a large amount of noise suddenly exploded.

Since his body had just defended against a heavy blow when he was hit, Oscar's standing posture was not very stable. Therefore, he didn't have time to react, and the whole person was sent out like garbage, and after several consecutive laps, he could barely lie on the ground.

The feeling of detachment from the severe pain made him dizzy for a while, and his eyes were black for a while. He tried to stand up as much as he could, but his legs didn't react at all. He gasped for breath, trying to ease his pain a little, but the monster's attack almost made him unable to move.

What kind of monster is this? Oscar was terrified for a moment after enduring the constant pain.

The blow he received just now was many times more painful than Oscar's past accidentally rolling off a cliff during his field activities. He dared to say that if he didn't make a timely evasive move, he would let all the monster's swings hit, and maybe even a few ribs would be broken.

"Ahem, cough, cough, ......"

Another sharp pain hit his brain, which made him, who was still dizzy, feel breathless for a while, and began to cough violently. Thanks to this, his head was a little fresher - this enemy whose face was still unknown was quite strong, and he had absolutely no chance of winning a head-to-head battle.

Although it is silent for now, it will not be long before it begins to pursue him. Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up with all his might. The pain made his body a little disobedient, and half of his body kept shaking when he moved slightly.

Kalalala......

And the monster seemed to be deliberately trying to get along with him, and he didn't take two steps before it was moving again. The moonlight was obscured by the clouds, and in the thin light, Oscar could only see that the monster had a rough body, and the limbs on the torso were as thick as his waist.

Is it going to be over? The fear that rose from the bottom of his heart made Oscar's body stiffen, and his dry throat felt as if it was blocked by something, and he felt uncomfortable just breathing. It was a far cry from the coercion he felt when Curt was fighting, and cold sweat was dripping down his forehead, smudging his eyes.

Despair...

The current situation can almost be described in this word, most of Oscar's body is not able to move as much as he wants, and the remaining strength is not enough to even raise a shield for defense. It's impossible to dodge, it's hard to defend, and if he gets hit by this monster again, he'll only have a dead end.

"Drink, ahhh

With a loud shout, Curt strode forward with a rainbow-like momentum. The long knife in his hand shimmered with clear streamers, and he slashed at the monster that was about to pounce on Oscar. The powerful slash slammed into the monster's surface, splitting the stout limb in half.

Curt didn't stop. He took a deep breath and lightly pulled the long knife that cut off the monster's limbs backwards, and then changed the center of gravity of his body, allowing his left foot to take a diagonal step forward, and using the momentum of turning his body, the long knife slashed a blade light from the bottom up.

Sonor!

The monster in front of Oscar didn't even have a chance to react, and was cut to pieces by Curt.

"Flow, Pendant Moon and Sky Water..."

The sound was so calm that it didn't fluctuate from Curt's mouth, and Oscar looked up just in time to see him throw a translucent tube the thickness of his little finger filled with silver-white liquid. His sick face was like a long-lost deceased at this time, without a trace of emotion.

From here, a thundercloud broke through the red. ”

The tube filled with a silvery-white liquid suddenly shattered, and the translucent fragments shimmered in the moonlight for only a moment. The silvery-white liquid contained in it changed into a stubby awl with Curt's "order", and along with the fragments, it flew towards another monster that wanted to pounce on it under the guidance of inertia.

Bang!

The fluid and tube fragments expanded in midair, eventually forming a mass glowing with blue-white electric light. The mass slammed into the monster that was rushing towards it in a strange trajectory, with an unbelievable thud, like a rock crusher knocking on a rock.

Centered on the place of hit, a wave of air rippled out. The next moment, the monster's body was as if it had been hit by a battering ram, and the body that was still buried in the rotten leaf soil was lifted up with great force, and it tossed along with the fluffy soil attached to it.

In the afterglow that gradually dissipated after the mass exploded, Oscar could barely see the appearance of the monster that had been hiding in the darkness. It was a bizarre being, and he didn't know if he should describe them as spider-like stones, or spiders with stone shells.

Rustling rustling ......

There were also many moving shadows all over the cavern, and the sound of them crawling could be heard everywhere. Although it is difficult to catch the traces of movement with a line of sight, it is still conceivable that in addition to the vanguard that has been defeated, there are many of their kind approaching here.

"I didn't expect it to be so lively here, could it be that they made an appointment to hold a collective funeral here?" With a heavy sigh, Curt coldly glanced around, and then helped Oscar, who was half-kneeling on the ground, up, "You too, don't look around when fighting, otherwise you will die." ”

Only then did Oscar realize that he was safe.

Oscar looked at Curt who was standing with a knife, he maintained a fighting posture without damage, and when he thought that he had not been able to do anything, he was almost crying, and even his voice was a little crying: "I, it's okay, but, but, Miss Lizzie, she... I..."
