Such an attack came so suddenly that Roddy couldn't detect any warning in advance while driving his "Environmental Sensitivity" - if it hadn't been for Nata's buzzing arrow just now, I'm afraid he wouldn't have even raised his hand to block it in front of his chest at this time.

Too late to do it.

A dazzling light flashed, explosions roared in his ears, and the rising sand obscured his vision. Rody fell to the ground with a "pop", and then stretched out his hands to stabilize his body.

The rocks hit his body and hurt, but Roddy had no intention of dodging. He tried to open his eyes wide and look into the distance to identify the enemy that suddenly attacked him. However, the several beams of light that passed over his head made him

He frowned... Most of the offensive spells of ordinary magicians would not exceed the range of 70 meters, but the spells at this time definitely exceeded the range of 100 meters!

And then Roddy identified some spell features that he was very familiar with: that was the "arcane" that Camilla had used!

How many people can use "Arcana" on this continent currently? Roddy can hardly think of any other possibility besides "Holy Society"...

Therefore, he immediately thought that this was an attack by the "Holy Society" on him: the other party might have discovered the secret of Elson City and found him along the way!

Rody never took any chances in his heart, because he had already regarded the "Holy Assembly" as an enemy that he would face sooner or later, so at this time he immediately believed that the opponent was coming for him, so he raised his short bow and prepared to fight back...

"Sodelor! Arrange to fight, prepare--"

In the middle of his words, Rody suddenly cursed: "Damn it, raise your shield! Find cover!"

He had just vaguely seen three or four figures in the distance, and thought there were not many enemies, but then he discovered that more than thirty or forty...arcanists were pouring out not far away.

Rody was dumbfounded by the overwhelming arcane magic, so he immediately changed his order... and the moment the soldiers instinctively raised their shields, the second batch of bombings exploded in front of them one after another.

"Boom boom boom--"

Roddy inexplicably remembered the feeling of summoning naval guns to bomb when he was playing "Battlefield 2", but what made him helpless was...the target of the bombing at this time was not others, but himself!

After a wave of cluster spell bombardment, there was only an endless buzzing sound in his ears. In the choking smoke, the visibility was only about two meters.

Roddy, who was lying on the ground, crawled a few meters to the side and slowly stood up.

Glancing at the position where Soderol and others were standing just now, Rody breathed a sigh of relief: the enemy's impact range did not include them, and the point where the arcane explosion was about ten meters away from them, except for the impact caused by the shock wave.

Outside of the impact, no one was injured.

He looked further away: Akasha was hiding behind Nokia, and her figure was looming. Although she was embarrassed, she was obviously not attacked.

"Soderol! Fall back, let the engineers leave, and retreat outside the ruins to organize the front!"

Rody has experienced more battles than anyone else, so at this time, based on the power and range of the spell alone, he has confirmed the fact: his team cannot defeat these guys!

If you lead two elite mixed mage-ranger teams, you may still be able to fight, but if thirty or so shield-wielding infantrymen go against more than thirty high-level mages, the result of rushing forward can only be "annihilation".

The enemy was unexpectedly powerful, and Rody had no choice but to retreat. However, just as he was formulating a plan in his mind, he thought of Ted who was blown away. His original plan to retreat immediately changed. He gripped the short bow and stood up to search.

The figure submerged in the smoke and dust,

Even though he has no friendship with this wood elf, Roddy has never been a cold-blooded person who ignores life. He doesn't want Ted to lose his life because of him...

"Chief Ted!"

Rody shouted, then raised his hand and shot three arrows in a row into the distance. One of the "Arcane Shots" broke open a shield, causing a scream.

"Rowdy!"

Soderol shouted from behind, signaling him to retreat as soon as possible, but Rody stretched out his hand and made a "wait a moment" gesture, and then rushed into the smoke to find Village Chief Ted, who was leaning against the stone wall.

After he was still alive, he stretched out his hand and pulled him up -

"Get out of here quickly!"

Ted in the smoke was interrupted by Roddy's rough movements, and his whole body stiffened - the expression on his face was very wonderful... first he frowned, then he was surprised, and when he confirmed that his hand was being dragged by Roddy

As he ran, his eyes showed unprecedented annoyance.

But before he could say anything, Rody, who was running in front, shouted loudly in Elvish: "Those guys are madmen, run away quickly, I'll try to hold them back!"

Roddy is not promoting any "humanitarian spirit". Regardless of whether Ted is here or not, he must provide cover for his main force. At this time, Ted is asked to leave the battlefield, but he does not want to see the other party being involved.

…

Enemies in the distance rushed over from the west. Soderol was driving the team to evacuate to the northeast. Roddy was dragging the wood elf village chief to prepare to pass through the ruins and escape to the east - because Roddy was dragging Ted with him, Roddy had no idea.

Unable to speed up, he had to stop after running a few steps, turn around, activate "Rapid Fire" and shoot two more "Arcane Arrows".

Attacks from enemies in the distance also came. Several "arcane missiles" hit the stone pillars beside him, and the broken stones almost hit Roddy. He directly used "Eagle Eye Stone Ring" and "Concentration Shooting"

"The combination fought back and shot the arcanist at the front to death on the spot!

This arrow caused the arcane masters of the Holy Association to be stunned for a moment, as if they did not expect to encounter such a counterattack.

But Roddy was not interested in being proud of this. He continued to run away and shouted to Ted without looking back: "I will take them to the west, you run that way! Hurry!"

Rody's attention was all on the enemy, and he didn't pay attention to Ted's expression at all. Little did he know that after he ran away, the "Wood Elf Village Chief" still stood there without moving...

Ted silently glanced at Rody's back and slowly released his fisted palms.

The black smoke swirled and disappeared in the palm of his hand. Ted, who squinted his eyes, turned his gaze to the arcanists in the distance and walked over.

Roddy, who was more than 20 meters away, didn't know what Ted was doing at this time. He used "leap" to jump up a short wall, turned around and continued to shoot at the enemy in the distance - but obviously,

After all, arrows at a distance of a hundred meters were unable to cause much damage, and several arrows were firmly blocked by the shield.

The enemy was approaching, and Rody also clearly saw the levels of these guys in his field of vision: a large area of ​​"orange" and "red" writing was faintly visible, and one of the prefixes "black" representing the absolute strength gap made Luo even more...

Di's heart sank to the bottom.

"Damn, is it so exaggerated..."

Rody never thought that he would be surrounded by a group of guys who had advanced to level 20 or even level 40. He glanced around and saw that Soderol and others had led the engineers to retreat towards the distance, and he felt half relieved.

tone. Thinking of the powerful enemies in front of him, he gritted his teeth and reached out to grasp the bottle of [Soletta's Fury] that he just got on the stone tower...

Do you want to give it a try?

But before he could make a decision, Roddy was stunned by the successive explosions in the distance.

What is Ted doing?!

Roddy saw that the wood elf village chief appeared on the frontal battlefield, and was moving among the ruins at an unimaginable speed. He even felt that... he could not keep up with this guy's movement speed even if he used unlimited "leap".

!

What...is going on?

Ted swept past the team of arcanists from the flanks like a wind. He shuttled back and forth like a butterfly among the intensive attacks of spells, but was still unscathed. The moment he raised his palm, Roddy finally

Realized the fact: the other person is definitely not who he thought he was!

The black shadow arrow rotated out of Ted's hand, but the effect was completely different from the effect of "Dark Priest" - this shadow arrow did not have an amazing size, as if it was just a black dagger thrown casually.

But the arcane shield that had previously blocked Rody's arrows had no defense against it...

Amidst the crackling sound, several arcanists were pierced through their bodies and fell to the ground.

Rody was completely frightened by the strange situation happening in front of him, but he had no intention of continuing to watch and immediately decided to leave... The level of this battle had exceeded the scope of his intervention, and he couldn't help even if he wanted to!

But before he could turn around and leave, he saw the strongest mage with the name "Black" in the arcanist team raising his staff--

"In the name of arcane magic!"

The dense forest was completely flattened by the blooming light in an instant, and the vast elemental aura was like waves, making Roddy stagger and almost sit down on the ground...

He swallowed, knowing exactly what level of guy he had met: in the seven years of playing games, he had only seen such a spell once when fighting a world-class BOSS!

This is a truly powerful magical power, belonging to an existence that stands at the top of the power pyramid in this world.

Thousands of square meters of forest were bulldozed, but Ted was still alive, but his appearance at this time had completely changed: there were several cracks on his cheeks that were originally like dead wood, but there was no blood inside, but a faint faint smell drifting around.

The black mist. After the robe on his body was torn, his body structure seemed to become stronger and slender invisibly.

He frowned, and there was some sudden emotion in his eyes. He slowly lowered his raised palm, and then stopped running away, but ran towards the center of the ruins!

The arcanist Lucius recited the spell in his mouth quickly, and the more than forty arcanists next to him were attacking Ted all the time - their eyes were full of fanaticism, and they had already ignored the fact that they had shot them to death before.

Companion Roddy.

Ted rushed into the basement entrance in the center of the ruins without stopping, while the arcanists behind him were chasing after him...Lucius's staff also lit up with a white light, obviously preparing to cast a more terrifying weapon.

attack spells.

But Rody suddenly had a bad premonition: there was nothing in the basement except more than 500 "charged crystals". Could it be that he——
