466 Necromantic Behemoths
Ventrov didn't want to put Illo and his party to death.
During these months in the Herseus Valley, he had lived in seclusion, with little contact with others, but he did not get nothing. In addition to his job as a spy, he also took in a student and made a few friends.
The Half-Elf Ranger is one of them.
Due to the similarity in some aspects, their relationship quickly warmed up, and later, Illo was even able to get some rare enchanted items from his hands for free, and of course, he himself unknowingly became one of the most important sources of information for necromancers.
In any case, the two of them are everywhere, but they have really cultivated a trace of affection, such as now, although he received the order to eliminate the invaders, Ventrov did not directly attack him. He thought hard for a long time, and finally turned out this "shadow maze" that had been hidden in the snow for many years, hoping that the other party would be able to retreat from the difficulties.
But people are not as good as the sky, and Illo, who is giggling on weekdays, has actually turned into a master with silver eyes flashing, and is looking around.
Feeling the penetrating power in his gaze, Ventroff secretly groaned and chanted a few words in a low voice. His wide cloak instantly stretched out, connecting with the shadows around him, and even the "Shadow Labyrinth" not far away became a little richer, like a ball of mullet juice that could not be dissolved.
"Don't be afraid, let me come. "Hugging left and right, manly, Illo's heroic hand waved, leading the way. After a long period of hard training, he has been able to activate some of the functions of the "Void Vision" without entering an abnormal state.
A qiē becomes abstract but clear, abstract is the scene, clear is the outline, the gray-white lines are reconstructed, and even the traces of air flow. It's all vivid. The mystery of magic lies in the fact that they use their own magic power to mobilize the free energy of the outside world, and the half-elf ranger can see the trajectory of the energy clearly. So as to follow the vine and find the key to supporting the entire spell.
Breaking the face with a point is the first trick for the ranger to fight against the magician.
Eggy and Alex didn't know anything about it, so they could only follow him. They were engrossed and ready to strike, but in this inky mist, they couldn't even spot the enemy. This is where mages can be really tricky, as they have a natural distance advantage when facing melee classes.
The Labyrinth of Shadows continues to expand. Soon it enveloped a radius of hundreds of steps, but Illo's expression became more and more determined. At the same time, the arrows between his fingers had also been replaced by Mithril from White Feather. It's a strange metal, with a high affinity for magic and energy. Of course, due to its flexible nature, it is not suitable as the main material of weapons. Therefore, foundries generally use engraving to save the consumption of this precious metal.
Pale golden "Dragon Stalker" energy. Climbing up the Mithril pattern, the brilliance is radiant and the momentum is extraordinary. Just when Bai Ji and Alex thought that the next arrow would be shocking to the world, the half-elf ranger was already lazily pulling the bow and stringing. Instantly, the golden Mithril arrow flew out softly and disappeared into the misty mist.
This is...... I'm afraid that a beginner archer wouldn't make such a mistake, right?
Girlish. He looked at the older girl next to him, but Illo just chuckled and motioned for them to wait for a moment.
"Alas, what a trouble...... "Ventrov scratched his head and muttered to himself in anguish.
In addition to the clever detection methods, the energy in Illo's body actually has a certain demon-breaking effect. His feeble Mithril Arrow directly hit the key of the "Shadow Labyrinth", blocking the center of energy flow, and basically cracked the spell.
When he usually cheats to eat and drink, why haven't I seen him so violent. The necromancer grumbled in a low voice, speeding up his movements. Although nominally, he is only a high-level mage, but his true identity is enough to compete with the legendary powerhouse. The problem is that his other evil god companions are not far from here, and if they make too much noise, they will inevitably be provoked, and when the time comes, they will not be able to pass the test lightly.
"It's easy. Seeing the fog around him dissipate at a speed visible to the naked eye, Illo couldn't be more proud. To put it mildly, a backhand break was nothing short of a textbook victory.
Even Alex, who has always been nitpicky, rarely remained silent, looking at the half-elf with admiration, which greatly contributed to his arrogance.
"Wait a minute, I'll come when I go. "For the two companions, Illo was very satisfied. He looked left and right for a moment, and suddenly seemed to remember something, hurriedly ordered, turned around and left.
Bai Ji nodded obediently, but Alex was a little puzzled, so he chased after his back and asked, "Wait, where are you going?"
"That arrow is expensive, I'll pick it up. The half-elf ranger turned his head and replied solemnly, then ignored the disillusioned older girl and bounced away.
"Yes, I'll let you get ......" Watching his every move secretly, Ventrov snorted with some dissatisfaction. The necromancer stroked the crystal ball in his hand, and the pure magic energy quickly poured into it. His lips opened and closed, but he could not hear any chanting, as if the chanting was swallowed up by the transparent air as soon as he said it.
The swamp is full of mud, and even if you can roughly determine the direction of the arrows, it is not so easy to find them immediately. Illo pouted his ass for a long time before he spotted a faint glimmer in the depths of the muddy water.
He was overjoyed, and now he could save twelve gold coins again. Leaning over, the half-elf ranger just wanted to reach out to fish, but was surprised to find that the calm water began to vibrate, and strings of bubbles gushed up, like something, trying to crawl out of the depths of the quagmire.
"Illo, what's wrong?" shouted the barbarian girl, who had sharp instincts, also sensing the anomaly.
After a moment's hesitation between asking for money or his life, Illo decided to choose the latter, and he stood up and reminded in a loud voice as he hurried back along the narrow path,
"Be careful, the enemy is not far away!"
"It's too late to run...... Ventrov snorted softly, his hands raised hard, and he decided to show this old friend his true strength.
