Arriving at the entrance to a valley, Owen and his party turned over and dismounted.The destination is not far from here, and the next step is not to continue riding, so you can only go on foot.The black horse that had been carrying Rusha all the way hung his head and was short of breath.Rusha stroked its mane and turned to Owen to complain."
Lord Eisen, your horse's physical strength is not very good, and you are tired like this when you walk this way."
Owen glanced at the other party and said, "The snow is not easy to walk, and you still carry such a heavy giant axe, it's no wonder that the horse is not tired." ”Rusha was already much taller than a normal human, and with the great axe, the total weight was far greater than that of a heavily armed knight."
No way, the axe is easy to use."
Rusha reached behind his back and grabbed the handle of the axe, "I don't dare to be careless in the face of vampires of unknown strength. ”Marpel looked at Rusha with disgust, and said angrily: "There are not many horses in Frontier Town, I'm really worried that you will tire the horses to death one day, so let's run with the team in the future." ”"Hey!
I can't run fast at all, so I'll pay more attention to the condition of the horse in the future. ”Rusha glared at Mapel.On the other side, Teresa was snickering.
[If the battle location is in a small cave, can the lizardman's giant axe be wielded?]
】Winster asked questions in his mind.
[Who knows, maybe he has his own fighting skills.] 】Owen responded.Two soldiers were left to look after the horses.The rest followed Shiron and headed up the mountain.Although the snow on the mountain has melted a bit, it is still a bit difficult to walk.It took a lot of time along the way before everyone came to the vicinity of their destination.Behind a bush, Maddie crouched on the ground with a musket in her hand, monitoring the movement of the magic stone mine in front of her.Hearing a sound behind him, he immediately looked back.Seeing Shieron leading the team towards here, Maddie looked happy, got up and put the musket behind her back, and hurried over."
Man, why did it take so long for you to come back, and how many people did you bring with you?"
Moving her gaze to the back, Maddie noticed that the lord had also come, and her face was solemn, and she stood upright."
Lord Marquis......"
He was about to bow and say hello, but was interrupted by Owen raising his hand."
No need to salute, this search mission has worked hard for you.""
It's not hard!"
Maddie said excitedly.Ever since he joined the shooting team and seen the power of the musket, he seems to have admired the lord very much.Approaching the bushes, Owen craned his neck to look ahead, and saw a long-abandoned mine.There are several ice picks above the entrance to the cave, which is overgrown with weeds and covered with a layer of snow.This magic stone mine has previously excavated several high-quality hot magic stones, and they have been auctioned off for a good price, bringing huge financial revenue to the border town.Unfortunately, the amount of magic stones produced in the future became less and less, and the quality gradually decreased, and they were finally abandoned."
The vampire is in there?"
Taking the giant axe from behind, Rusha looked eager to try."
Yes, Patriarch."
Shilon nodded, his eyes fixed on the depths of the mine."
Everyone gathered around, let me talk about the team layout of this arrest operation."
Everyone present followed Owen's instructions and gathered around him.After determining everyone's duties, everyone grabbed their weapons and entered this eerie magic stone mine.Shiron leads the way at the front, and his keen sense of smell helps to locate vampires, as well as detect danger before it happens, and warn the rear.Behind were four knights hand-picked by Viscount Jarvis, each holding a torch in his left hand and a sword in his right.In front of Owen was Rusha, who held the great axe in both hands and was responsible for blocking attacks from the front.Marpel and Teresa stood on either side of Owen, on their guard.Owen also holds a staff in his hand, and at the right time he can unleash his magic to assist everyone.At the end of the line is Maddie, armed with a musket, who can only shoot in an emergency, or when ordered to do so by Owen.After a long journey, we came across the first fork in the road.Shilon stepped forward and sniffed at the two intersections, then turned back and whispered to the group, "There is a strange smell in the passage on the left, it should be the smell of vampires." ”Everyone nodded, did not speak, and all walked towards the left passage.After that, he encountered two more forks in the road, and after Shilon distinguished, he found the right passage.As everyone went deeper into the magic stone mine, they could clearly feel that it was warmer here than outside, and the air was also very humid.Suddenly, Shiron stopped, raised his right hand behind him, and motioned for everyone to stop."
The smell is strong, and the vampire may be in ......
Be careful!
”As soon as he finished speaking, a dark shadow burst out of the shadows and swooped down on the torch in the hand of one of the knights behind him.The flame of the torch was extinguished and fell to the ground.The scene was a little chaotic for a while, and the knights waved their long swords one after another, but they didn't hit the target for a moment.Maddie, at the end of the line, raised the musket in her hand and aimed at it, but never dared to shoot.With the light of the remaining torches, the knight could be seen fighting a mass of "little furballs" clad in brown animal skins.The furball is moving around, and it is very agile, easily avoiding all attacks."
Don't panic!"
Owen shouted.The four knights quickly calmed down and tried to figure out the hairball's dodge path.The ball didn't want to continue to fight with the Knights, and after dodging many times, it ran straight behind Owen."
Lord Owen, be careful."
Raising the magic sword in his hand, Mapel prepared an ice blade attack.On the other side, Teresa was already praying to the gods.Crawling along the stone wall, the ball of fur planned to break through the encirclement of Owen and his party from the side and flee outside.Want to get out like this?
How can it be so easy.Mapel swung his sword, and an ice blade struck at a rapid pace.Suddenly sensing danger, the furball urgently changes direction and jumps out to avoid the ice blade attack.The flying blades of ice left a trail of ice on the rock wall.Taking advantage of this opportunity, Rusha picked up the giant axe and used the side of the axe to shoot the furball racket, but unfortunately it was dodged.This is what Owen had agreed to Rusha a long time ago.If the other party doesn't have a killer and just wants to escape, don't kill him.Holy Light!
Teresa decisively cast her faith magic, and a soft white light burst out from her body, instantly illuminating the passage where everyone was."
AhhhA little holy light shone into the hide, and the hairball let out a cry of pain, and quickly wrapped itself completely in the hide, curled up on the ground.The light flashed and vanished, and Teresa had no intention of killing them like this.The knights gathered around again.Knowing that he couldn't escape, Furball quickly turned around and ran towards the depths of the mine when the holy light disappeared.Shilon wanted to make a move to stop him, but the opponent was too quick and couldn't succeed.
