Chapter 5: Old Friends

Dick hid his figure behind the sand dunes and silently surveyed the situation on the field.

McFarlane was still holding the Blood Moon Long Knife with a blade as red as fire, and the sword aura was all over the place between swings. At the same time, one by one, the instantaneous magic of the fire system was emitted by him with a wave of his hand, and it could be clearly seen that Macfarlane's cultivation had also improved a lot in the past three months, and now it should be the strength of a third-level magician and warrior.

Macfarland's companion was a young archer, who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old, who held a bow in his left hand and swiped his right hand at the quiver behind his back, and an arrow came into his hand. The speed of the arrow was amazing, and to Dick's surprise, the archer's arrow accuracy was just as high and terrifying, almost the arrow hit, you must know that he barely aimed!

Dick turned his head slightly, looking at the enemy McFarlane was facing. Two of the four were magicians and two were warriors, and both warriors were shrouded in several layers of shields with different attributes, so the blows of the archers in the distance could not pose much threat to them at all, and it often took four or five arrows to break a layer of shield, but this time was enough for the mages behind him to add another layer of shield. And McFarlane was in a fierce battle with two fighters on the other side, and he was at a clear disadvantage.

Looking at the magician hiding behind the two warriors, Dick already had a plan in his mind. Like a ghost in the dark night, his body drew an arc-shaped trajectory, floating silently behind the two magicians without alarming the two warriors in front of him.

The soles of his feet slammed into the sand, and the sand under his feet exploded into a puff of dust because of his foot, and Dick's body struck at the two magicians like lightning with the force of the step! Both the magician and the two warriors fighting McFarlane in front of him were shocked. The two magicians quickly retreated, and at the same time instantly unleashed a few low-level protective spells for themselves.

Dick stretched out his hand and pointed at the void, and more than a dozen dark flame balls condensed and formed in the air, whistling and flying towards a wind mage who was closer to him, the "wind enchantment" that the wind mage had just laid for himself immediately collapsed, and before he could react further, Dick had already arrived in front of him, and slammed his fist on his stomach, and the wind mage immediately rolled his eyes and fainted.

Dick was about to go after the other dark mage of the other party, when suddenly a strong wind hit the back of his head, and Dick didn't have to look back to know that it was one of the two warriors on the other side who had launched an attack on him. In desperation, he had no choice but to give up the pursuit, and with a dexterous flash, he dodged the attack behind him. At the same time, he ghostly floated in front of McFarlane.

"Dick, it's you!" McFarlane exclaimed in surprise.

"Of course it's me," Dick couldn't help but laugh when he saw McFarlane covered in dust and a mess, "You're a miserable mess." ”

"Isn't it, if you come one step too late, I'll be finished. McFarlane smiled wryly.

Dick glanced across the other side, the two warriors and one of the remaining mages had already joined together, "This is not the time for small talk. I'll talk about it when it's over!"

"Okay, then let's go!" When Zuihou finished speaking, McFarlane had already rushed out of the distance: "Dick, let's compete to see who will kill the opponent first." The blood-red blade drew a strange arc, rolling up a heavy curtain of blades and enveloping one of the opposing warriors.

With a long roar, Dick also caught up with another warrior, and with a single move, more than a dozen dark balls of dark flames condensed into a burst of light and shot at the opponent, hitting the magic shield around the opponent and shaking again and again. At the same time, the demon sword Netherworld is like a scythe of death, slashing at the opponent with the breath of death that seems to come from the underworld.

It was neither Dick nor McFarlane who was the first to take out his opponent, but the archer behind them, and he remained silent the whole time, except that when the two warriors were pinned down, he aimed his arrow at the remaining dark mage of the opponent.

Several brilliant green rays of light pierced the pitch-black sky, and three sharp arrows were infused with fighting energy, easily penetrating the shield hastily laid on the surface of the dark mage's body, piercing his hands and right foot respectively, the huge momentum drove his body straight back, zuihou he lost his balance, and was nailed to the ground by three arrows, blood gushing out.

Without the support of the magician, Dick slashed the body protection shield of the warrior in front of him into pieces under a few swords, and the magic sword Netherworld volleyed a strange arc, blocking the opponent's blade, and the left fist was raised high, and the dark flames swirled around it, and the next moment this punch had hit the opponent's lower abdomen.

The eyes of the struck soldier were wide open, his mouth was wide open, and a mouthful of blood involuntarily burst out of his mouth and sprinkled on the cold sand. The light in his eyes gradually dimmed, and Zuihou's whole body drooped limply, and he fell to the ground on his back.

Dick set his sights on McFarlane, who had already gained the upper hand in the fight, and it was only a matter of time before it ended.

He turned his gaze back to the archers behind him, who had not yet spoken. At first glance, Dick couldn't help but be stunned.

What a handsome man he was! His long pale blonde hair poured down his chest like a waterfall, and his pale blue eyes shimmered like the finest sapphires in the night. There is also a straight nose like a knife, slightly thin lips, and ...... Pointed and long ears!

This turned out to be an elven archer!

Dick was even more curious, an elf Weishenme had nothing to do with the Terran Grells Survival Race?

He was dressed in a cloth garment, and a sleeveless leather armor made of fine leather, and carried a wooden longbow and quiver with no less than thirty arrows in it, and a fine elven sword pinned to his waist. It seems that the elf in front of him is not only an archer, but also a swordsman.

Dick was looking at the elf, and the young elf was silently looking at Dick. The two sides looked at each other but were silent for a moment.

"Hello, my name is Dick Hill, from the Terran Miro Empire. At last Dick was the first to speak, and his words broke the silence.

The elf on the other side smiled, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, a smile that could cause the girl to scream: "Hello, my name is Landas Streamer, and I am from the 'Streamer' elf tribe. Forgive my ignorance, I don't know the boundaries of your human race, and I don't know which empire my tribe is located in. ”

"It doesn't matter. Dick smiled as well.

At this time, McFarlane also eliminated one of Zuihou's opponents, who came from a distance with four metal signs.

"Please allow me to introduce you to ......" In the middle of his sentence, he suddenly turned his head to look at the two of them, and asked tentatively, "You already know each other?" and he received an affirmative answer from both of them.

"That's good, you two are my best friends, and it's necessary to get to know each other. McFarlane said with a smile.

A few minutes later, the three of them sat around the fire in the clearing that Dick had cleared out of the cactus jungle.

"So, the reason why Landas came to participate in the survival game is to ask for a fief from the monarchs of various countries after achieving a good result. Dick said suddenly.

"Yes," said Elf Landas, "there are elves who like to associate with humans, and they like to enter and exit human shijie, including me, but there are also elves who prefer to live in seclusion in the jungle and live a quiet and quiet life. But the range of human activities is getting wider and wider, and they come to visit our tribe, and we gradually find no place to live in seclusion, and to make matters worse, there are several cases when our tribe disappears after the arrival of humans. ”

"These are supposed to be unscrupulous slave traders. Dick frowned.

"Yes," a hint of gloom flashed in Landas's eyes, "we don't want to do this if we can, but our tribe really needs a forest to live without anyone disturbing us. That's why I'm here for this race. ”

"Can't McFarlane help you?" Dick looked at McFarland.

Macfarlane smiled bitterly: "I am only one of the more than twenty sons of my father, although my status is noble, but I have not yet reached the point of owning my own territory,"

"Moreover, the Theseus Empire is located in the northwest of the continent, and we elves are not adapted to the cold climate there at all. Landas added.

Dick pondered for a while, and then said to Landas: "Then you can come to my territory, it just so happens that my territory is located near the inaccessible Gulitius Mountains, where the ancient trees are towering, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, which should be suitable for the survival of the elves." And you know what? There is a tribe of dwarves hidden in the mountains of Gultius, and no one has discovered it for so many years, and if it weren't for these dwarves who came to the human city on their own initiative, we might not have known about the existence of this tribe until now. ”

"This ...... Is it really appropriate?" Elf Landas was a little moved.

Dick smiled, "If you are still not at ease, I can issue a ban in the name of the city lord, strictly prohibiting anyone from approaching the secluded location of your tribe. ”

"Don't worry, Landas, Dick is definitely a man who does what he says, I promise. McFarlane spoke.

"Alright then, in that case, I'll go back and ask the elders for their opinions. Landas said, "There are so many masters in this survival game, if I hadn't met McFarlane, I would have lost a long time ago." ”

"Well, I'll be waiting for you in Oriel City. Dick said with a smile, and suddenly he thought of something else, "Landas, how old are you, legend has it that elves have a lifespan of nearly a thousand years." ”

Landas laughed and said a number that shocked Dick: "I'm one hundred and eighty years old." He continued, "Of course, the age of your human race is about fifteen or sixteen years old. However, the relevant personnel of the Xiuth Empire are very reasonable in this regard, so I was able to obtain the qualification certificate for this survival match. ”

"Dick, join us," McFarran said, "and let's fight together." This way we have a better chance of winning the survival game. ”

"That's exactly what I mean. Dick said without hesitation.

"From now on, then, we will be comrades-in-arms fighting side by side!" said McFarlane, who was the first to extend his right hand.

In the night, in the firelight, Dick and Landas each stretched out their right hands and stacked them on top of McFarlane's right hand.

After a night of silence, the three of them spent the night in meditation and cultivation.

Early the next morning, the three of them left the cactus jungle and continued to advance towards the unknown in the hot desert.

Soon after the Dick and the three left, five figures suddenly appeared on the horizon on the other side of the desert, speeding towards the battlefield of the Dick and the three last night like a gust of wind. All five of them are dressed in black uniforms, three of them are warriors running on foot, and the remaining two magicians are blessed with "Wind Wings" to fly through the air. The black-clothed warrior at the head held a golden mirror plate in his hand.

This mirror plate is beautifully made, with a smooth mirror body in the center, and a ring of valuable gems inlaid on the edges, between which are magic symbols and magic patterns outlined by red lines, and lines of text appear on the mirror plate from time to time, apparently a magic tool for communication.

In the blink of an eye, the five men running at full speed had reached the place where McFarland, Landas, and Dick had fought last night.

"Stop!" the man in black led by him shouted. Suddenly, the five of them immediately stopped as if they had violated the laws of physics.

"According to the news from outside, four more Eliminators claimed to have fought against the target designated by Bixia last night, and their battlefield last night should be here. You explore separately and see if there is anything suspicious. The man in black commanded.

"Yes!" the crowd replied in a sonorous voice, and then the four men in black immediately dispersed in place and began to search forward in different directions. The leader of the men in black only looked down at the mirror in his hand.

"Chief, there's a discovery here!" In less than three minutes, a voice from a man in black was heard in the distance, and the rest of the men in black all rushed to the source of the sound. A few minutes later, the five men in black had gathered in the clearing in the middle of the cactus jungle. In the center of the clearing, there are still traces of a bonfire.

The leader of the men in black squatted down, dipped his fingers in a little of the ashes in the remains of the bonfire, and then pinched the ashes with two fingers and rubbed them, "This is left last night, the target should not have gone far, chase quickly!"

By the time Zuihou spit out a single word, the five of them had already traveled far away.
