177. The first battle of the squad


In the dimly lit jungle, it is difficult to find the danger hidden in the shadows, it is a nightblade leopard who is good at concealment, I don't know how long it has been hiding in the shade of the tree, it should have been hiding here before our team arrived here, otherwise the leopard would never have escaped my magic perception, but she had merged with the tree before, until the nightblade leopard revealed its killing intentions.In my field of vision, a distorted image suddenly appeared, and then, a sharp and thick claw appeared out of thin air, the distorted air formed the image of a leopard's head, and the two huge fangs bit at the young noble senior, Takama and I reacted immediately, she calmly pulled the bow in her hand, and three arrows shot out in a zigzag shape.The tail feathers of the "Rapid Arrow" carried a faint wind-like cyclone and hissed through the air, which frightened the young nobleman's body and made him stupid on the spot.I saw that the nightblade leopard bent its body into a bow shape in the air, and the moment its body was fully visible in the air, it suddenly stretched its body and soared up half a foot, which was able to avoid the three short-tailed feather arrows, and a leopard claw was already on the shoulder of the young noble magician, frightening the young magician to the ground.The Nightblade Leopard pounced, and then tried to adjust its position to fall, but heard a gunshot.Bang a copper projectile like a golden jujube, from the dark barrel of the gun, with a dark red flame erupted, it could not avoid it, it could only widen its eyes, watching in horror as the copper projectile grew larger and larger in its field of vision, and then nailed between its eyebrows.The additional damage of the Tongue of Fire weapon erupted suddenly, and dark red flames erupted from the copper projectile, burning the Nightblade Leopard to ashes.It's a pity that the skull of the Nightblade Leopard is too hard, and the copper projectile barely gets in halfway, which provokes the Nightblade Leopard to be ferocious, and its body rolls on the muddy ground, and it stands up from the muddy water very quickly.The brocade-like fur was covered in mud and let out a whimpering scream.It bared its teeth and looked at me and Takama warily, constantly lowering its center, raising its head, a cold gaze shooting out of its orange pupils, and a low warning sound, a trace of bright red blood from its forehead, but it did not turn away, but stalemate with us.Seeing this kind of natural western fantasy sneak attack, the nightblade leopard, who is very cautious every time he hunts, failed to sneak attack, and actually didn't run.Takama and I looked at each other, and found that there was a look of horror in each other's eyes at the same time, and the innate sensitivity to danger made Takama and I realize for the first time that we were in ambush.Leopard swarm!

I don't know how many Nightblade Leopards lurk in the shadows.There is no other reason, it must have been a group of leopards, and the first leopard that failed to sneak attack would be so fearless that he dared to stalemate with us.At this time, the young nobleman pulled his companion up from the muddy water, these two senior seniors of the Royal Academy of Magic, although they had more than one level of magic and had a good aristocratic upbringing, but they did not have much experience in the wilderness, and they were very embarrassed by the harsh natural environment of the Black Forest.Seeing that our eyes were wrong, Kige turned his head to look at Takama, and the lizard maid did not dare to hide anything from Kige, and directly whispered two syllables in the lizard language.Leopard I don't know what she meant, Kig quickly took out a small bottle from his magic waist bag, and a small cyclone condensed from the palm of her other hand, she bit the cork open with her teeth, and then gently poured out the fluorescent powder in the bottle, and those fine fluorescent powders drifted out with the cyclone in Kige's palm.The fluorescent powder stuck to my leather armor, glowing faintly in the dim black forest.The fluorescent powder sticks to the trunks of the surrounding trees, bringing the moss-covered trees to life, like a galaxy in the night sky.The phosphor fell in the swamps, mudflats, and puddles, and in our field of vision, silhouettes of one after another of the Nightblade Leopards appeared out of thin air, and I asked Kig curiously, "What is this?"

”Kig stood beside me and then uttered a term that felt a little strange to me: "Anti-Hidden Detection Fluorescent Powder!"

”It is very aptly described, under the effect of these phosphors, more than a dozen Nightblade Leopards suddenly appeared around, but unexpectedly, they were actually surrounded by a group of Nightblade Leopards, and Qige and Lucia's faces also changed.Lucia's clear voice rang in everyone's ears: "Get ready to fight!"

”Yes, in the treacherous jungle, there is no chance of escape in the face of these agile Nightblade Leopards, and the only way is to defeat them from the front.Lucia's crisp voice made the two young noble magicians who were in a panic completely sober up.Although their faces had become as pale as paper, they still stood with their bodies outward in a very graceful manner, forming an inversion to me standing in front of them.

Angular shape, instead enclosing the three ladies in the middle of the line.This move of the two of them immediately gave birth to some good feelings in my heart.Although they behaved poorly, it was rare to have a little gentlemanly demeanor in the midst of danger.The two young nobles each had a magic shield magic scroll in their hands, which gave them some confidence, and the other hand held a burning flame, which looked like it could be thrown out at any time, and these two young nobles wore silver badges with gold trim on their chests, and two small gold beans on the golden outer ring, which showed that they were magicians of the twelfth level.For them, the fireball technique had become a very simple instantaneous magic.Without saying a word, four stone drum totems of different colors quickly surfaced around my body.The wind swiftly walked through the petrified skin mana recovery, then put on a three-sided ice shield on himself, and took another step forward, putting himself at the top of the Blade Array, carrying the Shura axe in one hand and the oil lamp in the other, like a warrior, putting the most pressure on those glowing nightblade leopards.At this time, Qige, who was wrapped in countless wind blades, leaned over, felt the strange magic state on his body, and asked me in surprise: "I didn't expect you to really learn the stone drum totem spell of the orc tribe, this feeling is so unique!"

”I turned my head to look at her, and instead of answering her words, I stopped her behind me, frowned at her, and said, "You don't know how to fight in close combat, what are you doing here?"

”Kig heard that my tone was actually scolding, and his eyebrows were raised, and before he could say anything to contradict me, Takama came up with an arrow, stood side by side with me, and said to Kige, "He is a warrior in the jungle." ”Kig looked at me suspiciously, but trusted Takama's words very much, and took two steps back as he was told, standing with Lucia.Takama's cold gaze was fixed on the nightblade leopard lying in the mire, aiming at the jungle nightblade leopard and drawing the bow in his hand.There was a hint of timidity in the eyes of the nightblade leopard, and its long, pale tail shrank between its strands, and its body kept slowly retreating.Just as he turned to escape, Takama decisively shot a short-tailed feathered arrow, which was as fast as lightning, extremely tricky, and just stuck at the moment when the Nightblade Leopard wanted to escape, the feathered arrow shot silently along the blind spot of the back of the Nightblade's head, against the horizon, and penetrated through its back strands with precision.The nightblade leopard screamed and fell into the puddle, this arrow also officially kicked off the battle, and the dozen or so nightbladed leopards hidden in the darkness pounced out of the shadows at the same time.Apparently unaware that they were under our watch, two fireballs were thrown out of the hands of the noble mage and slammed into the two Nightblade Leopards that were at the front, just as they attacked en masse.The lizard maid threw the bow in her hand aside, took out a wolf's tooth bone dagger from her arms, bent her waist like a leopard, and pounced towards the nightblade leopard in front, Lucia held a magic sword in her hand, and a light blue magic array instantly appeared under her feet, and a magic shield appeared on her small arm, and then held the magic sword back, and actually followed closely behind Takama, the speed was extremely fast, I didn't think that Lucia was actually a magic swordsman, and the magic sword showed a crimson magic brilliance.It was precisely because of the first time they fought together, and they did not know each other's strengths, and it seemed that Lucia and Takama both chose to use the most aggressive means of attack.I feared that something would go wrong between the two of them, so I didn't hesitate any longer, so I picked up a Frost Nova scroll, quickly recited a spell, and ripped the scroll open, and the cold aura of a huge ring of ice centered on me and spread outward.The five Nightblade Leopards in front were directly frozen on the spot, and the dozen or so Nightblade Leopards in the back were very alert and sensitive to dodge because they were too far away.However, the five nightbladed leopards who were frozen in place were not so lucky, the first two nightbladed leopards had just been burned by two fireballs, and some of the burnt fur was torn apart, revealing the bright red tender flesh inside, and they were frozen in place, and before they could make any moves, the phantom-like Takama approached a nightblade leopard, lowered his body, and slammed his elbow into the jaw of the nightblade leopard, knocking its head high.The Nightblade Leopard let out a scream, and before it could react, the wolf's tooth dagger in the lizard's maid Takama's hand stabbed out like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, and it slammed out of the Nightblade Leopard Rou without any hindrance.

The soft belly entered, directly severing the heart tube, and the dagger was quickly withdrawn, and Takama slid on the spot in the muddy puddle, nimble as a water snake swimming in the water.Takama was so crazy that she didn't even care that the dozen or so Nightblade Leopards that had not been frozen on the spot had already pounced on her with their fangs and claws, and all she could see was another Nightblade Leopard burned by the fireball, and she sent the wolf tooth dagger in her hand into the belly of the Nightblade Leopard again.Compared to the assassination technique of Takama's life-changing technique, Lucia's fighting style is much more normal, her magic sword skyrocketed more than twice and the sword rays were more than two lengths, and directly three meters away from the Nightblade Leopard, she threw out a half-moon-shaped white match like a fighting spirit, and cut out a two-foot-long hole on the Nightblade Leopard, which had been trapped in place, and the wound cracked outward, revealing a little white under the bright red flesh, and it looked like the wound was deep to the bone.Countless wind blades flew out from behind me, obviously this should be Qige's wind magic, I don't quite understand what kind of high-level wind magic can release so many wind blades at once.However, each wind blade can only shuttle through the crowd, very flexible, forcing all the dozen or so night blade leopards who want to force up to retreat, and many wind blades have left countless wounds on the bodies of those night blade leopards.The two seniors from aristocratic families, after calming down, could actually act as a good fort, and a series of fireball techniques were vented out in one go, constantly exploding in the leopard group, as long as those nightblade leopards were stained with fireballs, the fur on their bodies was burned a large piece.I followed Lucia closely, carrying an axe and rushing up, relying on the ice shield around my body, I saw a nightblade leopard who wanted to sneak up on Takama from the side, and hurriedly blocked it with my body, the nightblade leopard hit his head on the ice shield, and a layer of light blue ice flame hung on his body, and the frost instantly covered his body, and it fell into the swamp mud, its claws stepped on the puddle, and the place where it was wet kept condensing into ice crystals.Its body became a little stiff due to the sudden cold, and while it was still a little uncomfortable with its own body, I hurriedly stepped forward, picked up the axe and slashed at the neck of the Nightblade Leopard, and the black whirlwind blew violently from the Shura axe.The Wind Fury Totem only slashed out the first axe, triggering the Wind Fury effect, and the tearing wind attribute magic directly cut off the head of the Nightblade Leopard.The bloody Shura axe was in my hand, and the blood that spewed out of the neck of the nightblade leopard splashed my face, and I wiped it with my hand indiscriminately, and then chased after the other nightblade leopard and slashed at it.Although there are more than a dozen of this Nightblade Leopard group, this first-level demonic beast only has stealth skills, and their raids often make the jungle people unguardable, and many times, the Nightblade Leopard likes to hunt in groups, so it can be regarded as a terrifying jungle killer in the jungle.But after all, they were only first-class magical beasts, and after the first Nightblade Leopard was exposed, the entire leopard group was completely exposed, and Qige used fluorescent powder to detect the hidden location of the leopard group.The Nightblade Leopards, who have lost their stealth advantage, have no advantage in the face of us, and in our eyes, they are just a group of faster and more powerful leopards, without any danger.In the end, there were only seven lightly wounded Nightblade leopards, who finally gave up the hunt, leaving behind their dead and wounded companions, and fled into the jungle, and we were not well prepared to prevent them from escaping.The two noble magician seniors sat in the muddy water with a somewhat prostration, and the joy of victory made them look very excited.Kig took Takama and examined the corpses of those Nightblade Leopards one by one, and said with a frown and dissatisfaction, "The precious fur of these Nightblade Leopards has all been destroyed, and they are not worth anything at all. ”I wiped the blood on the Shura axe on the corpse of a nightblade leopard, and when I looked up, I found a figure flashing behind the trees in the distance, and that person's back was somewhat like William!
