……

The significance of the sentry is vividly reflected in this encounter.

Matthew never wanted to fight the three evil groups on his own, so his tactics immediately changed to focus on procrastination and temptation after the attack failed.

And Ella lived up to expectations.

The sound of horses' hooves.

A total of eight knights came to meet Matthew smoothly.

Leading the way were a heavily armed Brad and a plain dress, while the remaining six knights were also armed to the teeth, and Matthew knew that they were not members of the garrison, but members of the lord's guard.

"The lord already knows, he ordered me to come over first, and the follow-up support is already on the way."

Zeller rolled over and dismounted, standing side by side with Matthew.

The knights marched slowly with their spears.

Under the cover of night.

The spear, which was nearly three meters long, gave people a great sense of oppression.

This is a serious military weapon!

Even Edson, who thought highly of himself, was no longer rampant, and he did not dare to continue the pursuit, but hastily retreated to the entrance of the mine.

Brad and the others are in pursuit.

Matthew hurriedly reminded:

"Be careful, those wooden boxes are weird!"

Hearing this, the knights hurriedly tightened their reins.

The moonlight shone on the wasteland ahead.

But near the dense body of the kobold, there were more than a dozen wooden boxes scattered, several of which had been knocked open due to the fall, and the inside looked empty.

However, Matthew's nerves were beating violently.

"Be careful!"

"It's "molting gel", is there any developing powder?"

He saw the message prompt.

Knowing that the monster in the wooden box had already sneaked up on the cover of night and its unique form.

Without saying a word, Zeller smashed out a glass bottle into the open space in front of him, and with a bang, the bottle shattered, and lilac smoke spread out from it, and wherever the smoke went, some molting gels that were originally indistinguishable with the naked eye were suddenly dyed with a thick layer of purple!

This is a developer powder, a powerful prop for low-level adventurers to fight against stealth units, the disadvantage is that it is expensive, and Matthew can't afford it.

The fastest crawling molting gel was already close to everyone's position.

The horse at the front was suddenly frightened and raised its front hooves and neighed.

The knight barely managed to keep his balance, tightened his reins and stepped aside.

Brad's eyes were quick, and he stabbed him with a single shot.

The iron spear easily pierced the molting gel-jelly-like body, but the latter was only pinned to the ground and could not move, and did not seem to be dead.

"You can't kill them this way, you need to use fire or lightning, or you can simply dry the water in their bodies."

As a mage.

Matthew's basic skills are still passable, and the molting gel is a kind of mud monster monster whose form is transparent or translucent jelly-like.

They don't move fast, but they're also extremely easy to overlook.

Once a living creature accidentally touches the molting gel, the latter will rapidly expand and swallow the living creature as quickly as possible, and the person wrapped in the molting gel will suffer great pain for 72 hours, they cannot escape and struggle, they can only watch the arrival of death.

Their flesh and blood, including their bones, are easily digested by molting gel, leaving only a few hairs and a full human skin.

The molting gel will spit out the human skin and hair after digestion, leave it in place and set off to find the next prey.

Because of this property, some evil casters or organizations will store molting gels and use them to peel their own skins, and of course, there are many examples in history of accidentally swallowing themselves raw because of the gel.

This thing is nowhere near as clumsy and harmless as it seems.

Got a reminder from Matthew.

The crowd began to clear the nearby molting gel.

Zeller also carefully counted the number of wooden crates to prevent the molting gel from getting lost and leaving it in the vicinity to plague the inhabitants.

And Matthew took advantage of this opportunity to perform the necromancy summoning spell on the pile of kobolds' corpses!

……

"Hint: The Necromancy Summoning Spell is successful, and you have obtained 30 Silver Moon Kobold Zombies (average level LV6).

You have obtained 3 Kobold Skeletons (average level LV4)"

……

After a round of summoning, Matthew's mana was mostly gone.

The kobolds who were still rushing to kill for the Scourge Cult just now instantly turned into immortals and turned against each other.

With the exception of three of them, whose bodies were so broken by Eli that they could summon skeletons, the remaining kobolds were all transformed into Silver Moon Zombies.

Compared to the Silver Moon Zombies transformed by humans, they are smaller in size and lower in rank, but they also inherit traits such as "Tree Skin", "Moonlight Power", and "Sacred Moon Armor".

Except for the reduction in agility, they are stronger than their original selves in other aspects!

This was the first time Matthew had manipulated so many undead creatures at the same time.

But he didn't feel like he was in a hurry.

Instead, there is a feeling of playing an RTS game-

Draw a box in your mind and order the kobolds to attack, defend, or garrison, the latter of which can usually be carried out smoothly, but more detailed instructions are difficult to give.

In order to perform more detailed micro-manipulations, Matthew must learn the supermagic skills related to "crowd manipulation".

With kobolds, zombies help clean up the molting gel.

The pressure on the knights was greatly reduced.

They began to turn their attention to the entrance to the mine.

Now.

The crowd at the entrance also had a violent argument with Edson.

"We've been spotted by Rolling Stone, the evil necromancer doesn't look like a mess, we don't have weapons and we don't have the manpower, it's time to admit that this operation has failed."

A one-eyed man dropped the words and walked into the mine without looking back.

The rest of the people, although they did not say it explicitly, agreed with him.

Only Edson's eyes were gloomy and angry, but he had no intention of retreating.

Quinna and Leon glanced at each other, and both of them sensed something strange.

But a few knights outside the cave had already bypassed the remaining molting gel and chased after each other, their eyes showing retreat.

For the members of the evil organization, having the courage to admit defeat and understanding that self-preservation is the supreme principle of survival.

If Edson and the Scourge can really tear open the wounds of Rolling Stone, as he said, and make people panic here through the Launching Ceremony, then they don't mind adding to the icing on the cake and joining forces with the Scourge Order to have an evil in Rolling Stone.

But that is not the case now.

Rolling Rock is tougher than you think.

Let's go.

is the best policy.

More and more people are retreating towards the caves.

There was a mocking smile on Edson's face.

Quinna and Leon frowned and took a few steps into the cave.

It didn't take long.

The people who had left first involuntarily retreated.

"Get out of the way!"

A gruff voice came from the depths of the cavern.

Several of the outer members of the Silverfrost Brotherhood failed to dodge in time, and were actually sent to the stone wall by a huge hammer!

Boom Boom!

There was a violent tremor throughout the cavern.

In disbelief, the crowd was forced to retreat to the entrance of the cave.

Another feminine voice rang out:

"How many times have I told you, don't hammer people against the wall, the soil in this place is soft, and if you are not careful, you will bury yourself alive."

Accompanied by the sound of speaking.

Out of the shadows came a dark-skinned, slender woman.

She had very little fabric on her body, barely enough to protect the vital points, and apart from her hot body, the most important thing that attracted everyone's attention was the scimitars hanging from the sides of her long thighs.

The scimitar has a large arc, and the edge of the knife flashes with a silver light.

There is no doubt that this is a skilled drow warrior.

Behind her.

A troll, navy-skinned with its head almost above the cave, was walking lazily.

Compared to a normal troll.

The biggest special thing about this trolls is that he is so fat!

He alone almost filled the entire mine road.

The gangsters who were knocked away just now were obviously the work of this troll.

"Hey, chick, it's useless how many times you've told Sinwak!"

The trolls lost their temper at the drow warrior and said:

"Sinwak's memory is only 17 seconds at most, and it's useless for you to tell Sinwak this! Useless! ”

The Drow Samurai rolled his eyes.

Too lazy to talk to this idiot.

Everyone was forced to exit the cave at this moment, and they watched as the fat trolls out of the cave with great difficulty, and then simply fell to the side—

Rumble!

The earth trembled slightly.

The trolls lay on the ground and let out a comfortable moan.

"Sinwak, you're the most self-aware trolls I've ever met, but the next time I'm lying down, please say it in advance, I'm an earthquake phobia."

Two more people came out from behind the troll.

The one who spoke was a boar man armed with a huge battle axe.

And the warriors around him are even more noticeable-

He was not tall, with a ring of fine scales on his forehead and a small horn.

He has a long tail on his back, the scales on which are dark blue, and give off a strange sheen in the night.

Combined with his deep vertical pupils, the identity of this warrior is naturally about to be revealed.

Half-dragon man.

……

"Warning: You've encountered the Southern Four of the Scourge Order—

Leila the Headhunter (Drow Samurai/LV15);

Nushan Sinwak (Trolls/LV14);

100 Slash Mehdis (Half-Dragonman Spell Swordsman/LV14);

Ban Wen the Howling Butcher (Boar Man Warrior/LV14);

……

You have encountered an underground coalition (kobolds, gnolls, gnomes, grunts, etc.) from the Dark Lands, numbering more than 300!"

……

Look at the lines of information.

Matthew's eyelids jumped.

He guessed that Edson wouldn't be the only one in the Scourge Order.

But I didn't expect the other party's reinforcements to be so violent, and the four fourth-order fierce men were just that, and the rest of the coalition forces actually came from the dark region!

"I'm afraid this isn't a plundering ritual at all, the Scourge Cult wants to attack Rolling Stone!"

Zeller's expression was very serious:

"We may have misjudged the enemy's true purpose!"

Matthew is just as ready to fight.

He looked out in the direction of the cave entrance, and countless kobolds and jackals poured out of it, still handing out weapons to the Brotherhood of Silver Frost and the Blight Order!

At this juncture, the other two organizations had no way back, and they were forced to jump onto the Scourge Order's thief ship.

War.

At least a small battle is inevitable!

"We may need to retreat first."

Zeller proposed.

"Wait."

After Matthew said this, he stared intently in the direction of the cave.

Zeller followed his gaze.

I saw the sorcerer Edson who was scolding and scolding his subordinates!

"Do it."

Matthew suddenly whispered.

The air on Edson's side writhed, and several half-broken bottles smashed on his body and feet, and in the next second, a raging fire suddenly ignited on the gnoll's head, back, and chest!

"Who?!"

The gnoll man screamed angrily, and the mace in his hand slammed out, but it fell short.

Sneaking quietly and winning a single blow, Peggy runs fast.

Before the man on Edson's side could react, the minotaur skeleton ran out of the way.

Only the hasty firefighting actions of others remained.

However, Peggy smashed out the "fiery glue" and "Molotov cocktail" that Matthew had obtained from the arsonist.

Once ignited, the flame cannot be contained.

What's more, Edson's hair became the best combustion.

Just a few seconds.

As Edson jumped up and down, his black hair was burned clean.

An eerie mist of blood emerged again.

But the resurrection power bestowed by the god of midnight can save the life of the jackal, and there is a chance that his fur will be reborn quickly, but the most important furs are gone!

……

"Hint: Peggy burned the gnoll's fur with fiery glue (including the two "Instruments of Exile" on the chest hair)"

……

"It turns out that there are still two copies hidden, which is really deliberate."

Matthew smiled with relief.

The next second.

Just as Edson angrily ordered his men to charge the oak grove.

A bright circle of light flashed in the clearing ahead.

A hill-like skeleton appeared out of thin air.

It turned its head and looked in the direction of the cave, the ghostly fire in its skull as terrifying as the lamp of death.

That moment.

Everyone had a feeling that the sky was falling apart!

……
