The campfire was filled with a foul smell, and the heads of swamp zombies as big as mine watermelons were neatly stacked, green and shiny in the firelight, like watermelon stalls stacked on the side of the road in early summer.Several orcs sat in front of the zombie heads, holding a sharp dwarven Xuanhua axe in their hands, and the axe kept chopping on the zombie heads, and there was a series of "click" sounds.A small wooden box was placed next to the campfire among them, containing a number of cores that had just been found in the zombie skulls.Whenever the orcs found the core, they would give a low cheer, then wipe the core covered with corpse fluid and throw it into a small wooden box.The Flame Gathering Scroll was pressed by a few stones, so it was not blown away by the wind, but the flame was burning tenaciously on the scroll, and even the strong night wind could not blow out the elemental fire.The shattered zombie skull was thrown under a dirt slope to the side and rolled far away.I crawled out of my sleeping bag and rubbed my sleepy eyes, a rapid heartbeat woke me from my slumber, and it was a very strange feeling that made me uncomfortable, like when I had just entered the northern foothills of the wasteland, I always felt that someone was staring at me, and danger was imminent.It was a punctual feeling, but I couldn't sleep again anyway.During the day, we finally carved a road paved with zombie corpses on the windmill hills, and finally cleared the swamp zombies on our way, so we collected a large number of zombie skulls, which numbered nearly a thousand.Those who left countless zombie corpses along the way originally wanted to simply refine corpse fire oil, but unfortunately there were not enough clay pots, so they had to abandon this plan.Just collect the zombie skulls in linen bags, put them together, and let a few beast girls who are willing to do this smash open the skull and take out the magic core inside.No one wants to be on the road tomorrow with those foul-smelling zombie skulls.No one wants to smash these filthy zombie skulls against the stench.These smells stick to your hands, and it is difficult to completely remove them even if you wash them with water repeatedly.But when Kutz suggested that every time he found a core, he would get an extra secret sausage, the problem was no longer a problem.We had reached the very edge of the windmill hills by nightfall, and further on to the North Gully Quarry Quarry.Actually, we didn't need to take a detour to the North Gully Quarry to get to Drowning, but we wanted to get a few big iron pots there, and only there were first-class blacksmiths in the mines.Formerly known as blacksmiths, they can now only be considered mine slaves, a group of gray dwarf mine slaves.Before nightfall.Worried that those swamp zombies would silently enter the camp, not only did I arrange for the orc warriors to take turns keeping vigil, but also lit a few fire-gathering scrolls around the camp, so that the whole camp was brightly lit, and I crawled out of my sleeping bag and got out of Sister Guoguo's tent.Sister Guoguo curled up in the quilt and slept Zhengxiang, like a raccoon, I lifted the corner of the tent door curtain and climbed out.Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and I noticed that the campfire in the northwest corner of the camp had been extinguished.It felt like the mana on the Gathering Fire scroll was draining rapidly.Then, the scroll lost all its magic power at once, so it was extinguished, otherwise no matter how strong the wind was, it would not be able to blow out the flames on the scroll, which was originally a magic fire.I was about to go to find out, when suddenly I heard a muffled grunt of pain in the distance, followed by the scolding of the orc, followed by two screams, and this series of sounds was heard far away in the silent night.Even the sound of the wind and the "click" of splitting zombie skulls could not hide the misery of the sound.A figure suddenly emerged from the tent next to me, and in the dim darkness of the night, I could only dimly see him wrapped in gray linen, as if he could blend in with the night.If I hadn't seen that very special searing bow in his hand.I'm afraid I don't recognize who he is, but doesn't this guy have the habit of taking off his clothes when he sleeps at night?
I saw someone chasing after me, and I hurriedly followed.At this time, a calm voice came from behind me, and he said to me in surprise: "Jia, why are you up too?"
”"I just wanted to get up," I turned to explain to Jonbach.But Jonbach had already picked me up quickly, and quickly threw myself to the side, at this time, a gray-white figure appeared out of thin air in my original position, and I couldn't see what it was, but it was holding a huge bone scythe in its hand, and a second after I left that position, it slashed tightly against my neck, and a trace of blood flowed down my neck.Immediately after, a sharp arrow flew in front of my eyes and pierced the body of the white figure, which suddenly shook and disappeared into the night right before my eyes and Jonbach's eyes, and then I found that my body seemed to have leaked a few large holes, and the magic power contained in the nodes in my body was sucked away like flowing water.At this time, two arrows were fired in a row in the darkness, but unfortunately they missed.Viru panted and chased after him, and glanced at Jonbach, Jonbach stood up from the grass, I was also pale with fright, if it wasn't for Jonbach's reaction speed enough, I might have been cut in two by the white figure."
What's that?"
I suppressed the fear in my heart and asked Jonbach next to me.Jonbach followed Viru all the way forward, the two of them looked very solemn, seeing that I was still following them at this time, Jonbach said directly to me: "Call your sister, this is a killer from the swamp of death, they are used to hiding in the dark night, it is difficult to deal with!"
”I said in my heart that you two think I'm cumbersome, it's true, I see that the two of them cooperate tacitly, and the movements are also very fast, it's really useless to follow behind, and I didn't bring out the silver-plated gun, I really have a little weakness, so I turned around and ran towards Sister Guoguo's tent, and the beast girls who smashed the skulls of the swamp zombies in front of the bonfire were already pale with fright.Kuz came running from under the dark grassy slope, wearing only leather pants, wearing a leather pants, and carrying an alloy bow in his hand, and when he saw me, he asked, "Found the death scythe?"
”"Huh?
The guy with the giant scythe called the Death Scythe?
That's a fitting name!
”I was stunned for a moment, only to realize that the monster that attacked me had a very domineering name.Sister Guoguo said from behind me: "He also has a unified title, called Ghost!"
It's an assassin in the undead clan.,Good at absorbing the mana of opponents in battle.,With the skill of silence.,It's a mage's nemesis!
”Sister Guoguo hurriedly got up from the tent.Only a magic coat was put over the nightgown, his hair was scattered, and his snow-white feet were exposed, in the dark of night.By the light of the fire emitted a crystal light.She saw that I was going to run out with Kuz in search of the Death Scythe that might be lurking in the camp, and grabbed me.Whispered softly in my ear, "There's nothing more attractive to those guys than magicians, who are very sensitive to mana and like to be close to creatures with strong magical elements."
And suck the magic power out of them!
”Then he said to me: "The swamp zombie and the death scythe, the two undead monsters, make up for each other's shortcomings in the swamp, this is the real death swamp, even if it is a wolf cavalry, it is easy to die in the sneak attack of these death sickles." ”I've never been able to understand what these swamp zombies are so terrible that they would force the entire orc tribe to abandon their homes and flee for the wind.The orc werewolves are naturally reckless and fierce, and they are not afraid of death, and they are natural hands, and it stands to reason that they have lived on the edge of the death swamp for so many years.Already familiar with the characteristics of swamp zombies, for these zombies, javelinmen and archers with armor-piercing arrows are definitely their nemesis, and it is a bit strange that even the Raitu tribe would be forced to leave their homes.Now I finally know that these ghostly creatures death sickles are the most terrifying, if there are always some such killers lurking in the dark night, waiting to harvest life, no matter how strong the will will will gradually collapse over time.At this time, Gřilī ran out again in disheveled clothes from the direction from which Kuz had run.A large area of her wheat-colored skin was exposed, and when she saw me looking at her curiously, she didn't care about the spring light under her leather armor, and went directly to Kuz's side and whispered, "Dead two female warriors in charge of the night vigil."
A fatal knife should be killed by those death scythes!
”At this moment, I suddenly felt that the magic elements in my body were abnormally active, and that indescribable sense of panic hit my heart, Kuzi had the survival instinct of the legendary talent of the beasts, and it was also at this moment that he foresaw the danger coming.She looked behind me in shock, and behind me was Sister Guoguo.I hurriedly turned around and got behind Sister Guoguo, I didn't have time to react, a white bone scythe had been condensed in the dark air at this moment, I panicked, and there was nothing to block, I took out a wolf tooth dagger from my arms and raised it without thinking.The white bone scythe has been slashed diagonally, just on the wolf tooth dagger raised in my hand, my strength is much smaller than the power of the death scythe, and the dagger is not a good defensive weapon, there is almost no obstacle, the white bone scythe of the death scythe is slashed on my shoulder, fortunately, there is a point, the wolf's tooth dagger material is hard enough to resist the blade of the white bone scythe, but the foot-long sickle head is inserted obliquely from my shoulder blades, cutting off three ribs is not counted, The sharp tip of the giant scythe had reached into my abdomen, and at this moment, the pain was so painful that I could barely speak.I finally got a sense of what it was like for the zombies to be scurrying on the horns and javelins of the Antelope during the day.At this time, Kuzi shouted hoarsely and bitterly: "Jia!
”I relied on my keen sense of magic, feeling the abnormal fluctuations of the magical elements around me, to know that the danger came from behind me, and Kuz relied purely on his own talent.He discovered this dangerous situation almost at the same time as me, but he was a line slower than me after all, because he chose to draw a feather arrow at the first time, and when I had already turned around and ran behind Sister Guoguo, he was in Sister Guoguo's surprised gaze, and he was facing Sister Guoguo with a bow and arrow, and he was full of momentum towards Sister Guoguo.Kuz saw the giant scythe that appeared out of thin air slash at my shoulder, and it was at this moment that his feathered arrow was fired.The sound of him shouting my name reached my ears along with the sound of his feathered arrows breaking through the air, and the steel arrows flew past Sister Guoguo's pearl earrings, cutting off a messy strand of her hair between her neck, and piercing straight through the chest of the death scythe."
Bang!"
It was the sound of countless pieces of ice shattering above me, along with an endless chill.Damn Kuz, what he pulled out was a magic rune arrow, this was Kig's last gift to Kuz on his last night in Gurudin, this is not some superb magic skill, mysterious formula, nor any powerful weapon, precious magic materials, but an idea, or even a conjecture.Miss Qi thinks that since the Frost Scroll has such unexpected power and can also be drawn on palm-sized magic parchment, she makes a point: since the magic scroll can be mounted on the beast clip to make a simple magic trap, if the magic parchment paper is made lighter and thinner, and the scroll with the Frost Demon Pattern Circle drawn is rolled behind the tip of the feather arrow, wouldn't it become a magic arrow?
Well, the last night, I went crazy all night with Kig in her makeshift laboratory, and on the eve of dawn she changed into a sumptuous court dress and boarded the airship and returned to the Grimm capital, while I stood on the hillside and cried.But before we did it again, we actually made three magic arrows.This feathered arrow was one of the three magic arrows.My whole body was covered with a thick layer of frost, including Sister Guoguo's entire back, and the white ghost floating above my head, hiding under the black tattered cloak, was covered with ice ballast, and its terrible scream pierced my eardrums, and I think it probably knew that it was in danger.A flare floated from Sister Guoguo's hand, and I thought that at least she would be able to perform a magic skill like "Ice Arrow"!
Unexpectedly, she just shot a magic flare into the sky at this time, and the entire camp was as bright as day in an instant.Only then did I really see the appearance of the death scythe, the whole thing was a half-skeleton frame wrapped in a black broken cloak, there were no bones below the pelvis, only the miserable white bones of the upper body, and there were two dark blue soul fires burning in the eye sockets on the skull, I seemed to be able to feel it frightened from these two flames, its entire right hand had turned into a white bone scythe, but at this time it was inserted into my body, and I didn't know how to pull it out.Under the illumination of the flares as bright as day, the death sickle actually emitted green smoke all over its body, as if it was on fire, and the stinging sensation made the death sickle let out a terrible scream, but all the joints of the body were covered with frost, and they couldn't move at all.In the darkness, a flash of white light flashed, and an arrow was nailed directly to the head of the Death Scythe.Jonbach also rushed to my side at this time, and he actually dropped the mace in his hand and held it directly on the handle of the giant scythe of death.He was clearly worried that the Death Scythe would stab me again while it struggled to the death."
Dorunle!"
Jonbach shouted loudly, and the Scythe of Death grabbed Jonbach with his other hand, which was blocked by the shield in his other hand.To be continued.
