Chapter 298: The Wind in the Forest (2)
Since the wolves have launched a large-scale attack, it means that there are still people in the Sage's Peak, and there should be many more. If it weren't for this discovery, the young lord would have returned home long ago when he saw such a number of night wolves, and then spent a lot of money to gather a group of mercenaries to defend Campbell.
Of course, even if he does, it's hard to say if he won't have time.
The wolves had not yet found a few humans following them, and they did not know if they had received some kind of order, they no longer maintained a loose formation, and there were no longer night wolves to follow at the end to remain vigilant, and began to run frantically as if they had no scruples, and soon those dense green points of light disappeared from Leon's field of vision.
"Keep up with them," Leon said, knowing that this was the last safe distance that the Night Wolf had given them, allowing them to get to the closest position to the Sage's Peak with minimal effort, and this was not only Campbell's chance, but also his chance, which had to be seized.
The speed of the wolves is very fast, and the seven humans who follow them are not the night wolves, the agile four-hoofed creatures whose vision in the dark is close to that of dark vision, and the irregular arrangement of thick tree trunks on the road is the biggest obstacle to speed, but it is also their best protection.
"How much longer!" asked Leon.
"Thirty minutes at this rate!" Bonda gasped.
There were more than a dozen waves of fighting along the way, plus long runs, although the mountain people had always been known for their tough physique, and at the same time enjoyed the effect of the Banner of Glory, but Bonda also began to feel tired, he had been persevering before, but as soon as he opened his mouth to speak, he was a little unable to support it.
Leon raised his hand to signal his companions to stop, and then threw a bottle to each person, the blue liquid that was still shaking in it was as pure as Campbell's sky, and when the stopper was opened, there was a refreshing smell that made people feel refreshed.
“...... It's advanced enough, I'll save it for a while before drinking it," Red has a lot of knowledge, and knows that this must be at least an intermediate or above vitality potion, and the materials needed are quite precious, and of course, the price is even more expensive.
Of course, this is not those low-effect potions that Li Ang prepared himself, but the "Kaka Version" intermediate vitality potion specially prepared by the alchemy master using the materials donated by the Council of the Chaos City, and there are not many finished products, and this time it was brought out by Li Angquan. For the few of them, the current body is still more than half, so of course they feel that drinking this potion is a bit of a waste.
"Drink it! There will be a battle at any time now, and it will be too late to drink it again!" Li Ang said without looking back: "I don't want to cause attrition due to lack of preparation, remember, no matter how expensive things are, they are valuable, but each of us is priceless!"
"Plus, there's a bottle of these potions in your carry-on package, remember to drink it in at least fifty minutes!"
Hearing Li Ang's words, Red was silent for a while, and suddenly he shrugged his shoulders, uncorked the bottle with one hand and drank it dry, and the others also drank the potion at the same time, Master Kaka's methods were really different, the effects of the potion and the Glory Banner were superimposed, and these people immediately felt that their bodies began to rise steadily,
Bonda is a little stunned about the effect of the potion, it is not that there are no alchemists among the mountain people, and there are medicinal herbs in the mountains and forests, but the effect of the potion they prepare is completely incomparable with the bottle just now, so it seems that the resources that a lord can control in his hands indeed exceed the entire mountain tribe.
But he didn't expect that even the old earl, the fourth-order paladin, did not have an exclusive alchemy master by his side, and it was impossible for him to have so many kinds of precious materials.
"From now on, we will have to cross the wolves to reach the Sage's Peak, so this battle will be dangerous......" At this point, Leon paused, his gaze swept over his companion's face one by one.
Red laughed and interrupted the young lord's speech, "Every mission I've had in the past has been dangerous, and I still care about this? Needless to say, your goal is my goal!"
Caterina and Melissa didn't speak, but their eyes were trusting.
"It's the innate...... duty of elves to rid them of rampaging evil creatures," Ser and Dan looked at each other and smiled slightly, "so we can't ask for that." ”
"Thank you, Lord Lord!" Bonda bowed his head to the young lord.
Li Ang's heart was a little moved, these people in front of him were all following him for various reasons, and once he made a certain decision, whether it was dangerous or not, they never questioned it, this was not a laissez-faire, but trust.
He pulled out the Immortal Vanguard and walked forward first, and said at the same time: "I'll open the way, Caterina will protect the left side, Red will be in charge of the right side, Se will be at the end, Melissa, Dan and Bonda, you will be in charge of support in the middle, let's go!"
They no longer acted stealthily, their speed increased a little, and after a few minutes they saw the rear of the night wolf pack, and the speed of these four-hoofed creatures was noticeably slower, because they were already covered with their own kind in front of them, and could not continue to run at full speed.
Finally, the night wolves quickly sensed footsteps that did not belong to their own kind from the vibrations coming from their feet, and they turned around and let out a terrible howl at the seemingly empty forest.
In an instant, a burly savage appeared in front of the wolves, and with his usual angry shout, the weapon stabbed forward, skewering several wild wolves on top of the spear, and then Sapa shook it hard, and the carcasses of these wild beasts flew sideways, but before they could fall to the ground, the cold light flashed, and several wild wolves suffered the same fate.
The wolves began to turn around, and they scattered into hundreds as if they were commanded, but this action also caused a temporary blank space in the rear formation.
Several humans suddenly rushed out of the dense forest, and they rushed directly into the area under the leadership of a young man, which was exactly the plan of Li Angsheng, to attract the attention of some of the night wolves with the barbarians, and they took the opportunity to rush forward as fast as they could.
But as soon as he rushed out a few dozen steps, there were several wolf howls from both sides, and the night wolves divided into a part to surround them, and Li Ang saw that the wolves on both sides were encircling in front of him, and immediately launched the dreadnought vanguard, and his body carried the deadly hurricane towards the depths of the wolves at an unstoppable speed.
In an instant, a long path appeared directly in front of the team, and the hundreds of night wolves that had gathered here were torn apart by the hurricane and impact, and were scattered all over the ground in pieces of flesh and blood, and then trampled on them by the fast-moving humans.
At this time, the barbarian who had completed the task broke out with a more intense shout, his spear burst out, and the sudden burst of shock wave knocked seven or eight wild wolves in front of him away, and then stepped heavily on the ground with his right foot, and his body jumped forward more than ten meters, approaching the right side of the team.
Li Ang had already invested all the experience he had gained this time into his second class, upgrading the mage to level fifteen, so the third-order barbarian could last ten minutes, and his strength had increased accordingly. And if you look closely, this time after Sapa appeared, there are two more carvings on his spear that penetrate the front and back, and whenever he attacks, the two carvings often give birth to a wave of power, and then converge at the tip of the spear, and finally form a spiral shock wave that is activated with the attack, which will cause a considerable amount of additional damage to enemies in a small area.
Although this effect does not appear every time, the strength of the night wolves is generally equivalent to the peak of the first order of human beings, and they are all gathered together in a swarm now, so once it appears, it is like a big killing weapon for them.
Li Ang didn't have time to ask carefully, he was slowly walking forward step by step, not caring whether the companions behind him would follow, but because there were too many night wolves in front of him, even if he swung out a sword, a few points of light would be extinguished, but in an instant, more points of light would be filled, and then green points of light were scattered like stars in the dim dense forest in front of him, which showed that more and more night wolves had discovered the threat from the rear, and turned towards the few humans led by Li Ang.
