Chapter 299: The Wind in the Forest (3)
If the encircled wolves are like a thick blanket of cotton, then Leon's small team is like a steel needle piercing the thick blanket, stretching forward inch by inch.
Not only did the young lord standing at the forefront face countless night wolves, but also the two sides were attacked fiercely, and those night wolves rushed to the front without pause, and immediately pounced, opening their large mouths full of fangs to tear these humans to pieces, and at the same time, the two front paws also raised upward, revealing blue-black claws and waving over.
"Beware of poisonous claws!" Bonda snapped out, now with a longbow in hand, attacking the half-human-tall night wolves from between his companions.
Speaking of archery, the mountain people living in the Bronze Helmet Mountains are all good hands, each of them has been practicing archery since childhood, and no matter what else they are good at when they reach adulthood, they will also master a good hand of archery, so Bonda is still very confident in his archery.
The mountain man knew that he could not afford to withstand the frenzied attacks of the night wolves on the outside, so he had no objection to Leon's decision to place himself in the middle of the group, but he asked Leon for a longbow and used a ranged attack with Dan to support his companions who were carrying heavy responsibilities around him.
As the leader of the younger generation of mountain people, Bonda was originally very confident in his speed and perception in the forest, but just now he was completely compared to the elven ranger who was also a second-order, and at this time, he stood by the side of this ranger, and was hit hard again.
The elven ranger's left hand holding the bowstring just trembled slightly, and three to five long arrows came out of the string, the angles of the arrows were different, and the speed and slowness were also separated from each other, but they could all hit the opponent at a very tricky angle, and even some of the long arrows were obviously shot into the air, but in an instant, a night wolf rushed here, as if he was seeking his own death and was shot into the vital point by the long arrow.
Unbeknownst to Bonda, Se's shooting method had already activated three combat skills - "Primary Rapid Fire", "Primary Precision Aim", and "Intermediate Volley", which was indeed a bit amazing for the mountain man who was not assisted by combat skills.
However, Bonda's long-range attack has been practiced for many years after all, and the strength is there, although it is slower, but there are too many night wolves, and it can hit the target without aiming at all, and it has caused a lot of damage. Of course, he still had to pay attention, because his companions were fighting the night wolf pack, as long as he avoided them.
The other companions also have their own strengths, Red swung a giant sword back and forth, and the night wolf group on the right side of the fight was in full swing, each sword swing was like bringing up a light blade, as long as the opponent could not dodge at least the end of the stump and broken body, he has been striding forward, and Li Ang in the vanguard position of the team to maintain the same speed, as much as possible to reduce the pressure on Li Ang from the right side.
However, as a master of special weapons, although Red has several auxiliary protective skills blessed by Katarina, he is still high in strength and low in defense, especially if he keeps moving forward like this, he will definitely give up some of his own protection, so although the number of wolves is greatly reduced, he still suffered some injuries from the attacks of these four-hoofed creatures who don't care about life and death, fortunately, it is not too strict, and with the effect of the Glory Banner, the impact on him is not too great.
Catalina is the opposite of Red, she is like a pillar standing in the rapids, unmoved by the fierce attacks of the wolves, adjusting her speed as the whole team moves, and the main target of the knight's sword is the night wolves who want to circle the head of the group from her side. When the opponent is few, every time the sword shadow flashes, there will be a night wolf key move, and when it pounces into the air, it will fall heavily to the ground, and once the opponent increases to the plural, there will be a shining arc of light flashing from the side of her body, forcibly reducing her number to single digits, and then killing the night wolf one by one with a simple but effective sword move again.
For the night wolf who attacked her directly, the knight girl simply ignored it, and let the big mouth dripping with disgusting saliva approach her body, but when the distance was close, a burst of white light flashed from her uniform, reducing the damage caused by the night wolf to a negligible, and even some night wolves with poor strength would be ejected far away by this burst of white light, and they couldn't do even a trace of damage.
At this time, the pressure on Thur, who was at the back of the line, was a little heavier, and although the striker and both wings were rushing forward like meat grinders, the more this happened, the more night wolves pounced from behind. However, even in the face of countless fierce beasts, Se's sword momentum still maintains the unique beauty of the elf, when he swings a sword, the arc formed with the tip of the blade is very perfect, as long as there is a night wolf figure in this arc, it will be covered with deep scars in an instant, although it is not fatal, but it has also lost the ability to continue the attack.
Se's heart was full of enthusiasm while feeling the pressure, because just now he could achieve a natural transformation of speed and slowness with many swings of the sword, and the deadly killing machine hidden in the sword arc had reached three places, and he was already halfway through the process of the goal of a strong swordsman in his mind, if it was placed in normal times, it would be impossible to make progress so quickly.
However, even if there was a breakthrough in the battle, the number of night wolves exceeded his ability, and just as he had just withdrawn a sword and was about to retreat to keep up with the pace of the team, six or seven night wolves cut in horizontally, blocking his way.
There were countless green spots of light behind him, and there was an unexpected obstruction in front of him, Se narrowed his eyes, looked at his companion who was gradually moving away, and slowly stopped.
"Come on, you xenos who are not natural creatures, the others are gone, what is the use of keeping me here?"
The elven swordsman did not say a word to call his companions back to help, but stayed with the determination to drag these beasts, he stood with his long sword crossed to his chest, a smile appeared on his face, "If you can make a breakthrough in swordsmanship before you die, it will be worth it......"
But someone was unwilling to give him this opportunity, and suddenly several shiny thin lines appeared in the dim forest, and in these interlaced thin lines, the night wolves between the elven swordsman and his companions had just jumped up and turned into pieces.
Knowing that it was Melissa's Strings of Fate, he looked up and saw the Assassin Maiden's figure creep back into the shadows, as he heard a message from the other party, "Hurry! Everyone is waiting for you in front!"
The nearly one hundred and sixty-year-old adult elf felt a feeling of unspeakable emotion welling up in his heart, he wiped the ordinary style long sword in his hand, strode after Melissa and rushed forward, and it was not until the thin lines behind him completely dissipated that the night wolves continued to catch up.
Sure enough, the team stopped not far away, and with the elf's perceptual ability, Se obviously found that they were all relieved, showing a relieved expression, so he stood at the end of the team again, and shouted to Li Ang, who was resisting countless night wolves at the front, with a blank face: "Master, I'm back to the team!"
This was the first time that the elven swordsman had officially shouted the word "master", and he might still not recognize the vast majority of humans, but at least these humans in front of him were already his true companions, especially the young man...... At least shouting the master wouldn't be anything less, would it?
The team once again faced the wolves, as if they were riding the waves in the raging tide, going upstream, and in front of Leon there had begun to appear a larger night wolf, their bodies were dark and black, and pieces of skin were rotten and cracked, revealing black-purple cracks, and in their eyes they were no longer dark green beast light, but a faint red glow.
This is a rotting wolf, just standing at the same height as Li Ang, and when he breathes, the fishy smell is emitted from the body along the holes on both sides of his jaw, which looks weird and disgusting. But in fact, the appearance of the rotten wolf is invaded into the body by some kind of magic power, and its body has a lot of resistance to general weapon damage, and the breath it spits out is very corrosive, which is quite strong compared to the ordinary night wolf.
And at this time, a low and breathtaking roar came from not far away, and then the wolves in front of them raised their heads and howled at the same time, as if they were welcoming the arrival of a strong man of the same clan.
