Leslie's face was so horrified that she pulled Bing Zhixie and ran as fast as she could. She didn't care about the thorns and vines blocking the way and just rushed through.
Bingzhixie said: "Hey, let me go, I can use magic. Death plague rats are of the fire attribute. They like dryness and are afraid of water. I can scare them away with water magic."
"Stop being an idiot." Leslie refused to let go: "Can you stop so many rats? It's better not to hold me back and run faster."
Bing Zhixie glanced back. These death plague rats came so fiercely that the entire forest was stirred up by them. Moreover, they ran extremely fast, almost leaping through the woods, and some even climbed dozens of meters high.
Meter-high tree crown.
Leslie felt that the mice behind her were getting closer and closer, and she could hear the sound of their teeth grinding. She couldn't help but said anxiously: "It's a pity that I haven't learned to fly in the air, otherwise I could...ah! Aren't you a magician?
?You were flying just now..."
"This way." Bing Zhixie pulled her to the side and suddenly passed through a bush and saw a small river: "Jump down."
There were two sounds of "plop". As soon as Leslie dived out of the river, she heard the wind blowing in her ears. Groups of black shadows quickly ran past both sides of the river bank. There were "squeaking" mice everywhere.
The screams make one's scalp numb.
Death plague rats are naturally afraid of water and will not touch water unless they are thirsty.
A few minutes later, the swarm of rats passed by. Bing Zhixie and Leslie climbed up the bank. The grass and shrubs on both sides of the river bank were ruined into a mess. After the rats passed by, there were no birds around.
Bing Zhixie thought to herself: "No wonder others don't dare to come here. It's too dangerous to encounter these rats."
Leslie wrung out her wet hair, shook it and said: "Fortunately, I reacted quickly enough and jumped into the river to escape this crisis." Then she said angrily to Bing Zhixie: "You are the key.
Sometimes it holds me back. Fortunately, I, Lesley, am a person with professional ethics. After accepting your money, I will protect your safety. Otherwise, if it were another mercenary, I would have abandoned you and run away."
Bingzhixie sweated secretly and thought to herself: "If you hadn't dragged me to run desperately, I would have killed those rats long ago."
Leslie said: "Anyway, I tried my best to save you this time. You have to give me more money. At least 20 more gold coins, no, 30 more."
Bing Zhixie ignored her, but looked behind her and said, "I think we still have a little trouble."
Leslie quickly turned around and saw water monster turtles with golden skin and blue shells climbing up from the water. Although the death plague had scared away the monsters on land, the ones in the water were still there.
Water devil turtles are not big in size, the largest one is only about the size of a washbasin. The shell of this turtle monster is different from other turtles. In addition to the bright aqua color of its shell, the shape of the shell is also different.
.Other turtle shells are arched, and the shell cover is pentagonal when viewed from the side, somewhat like a hat (especially like the warm hat worn by officials in the Qing Dynasty in ancient China, which has that shape), and its shell is soft.
In the center stands a small pillar less than 20 centimeters high, with a red meat ball on top.
There are many white hairs growing on the edge of its blue soft shell where it meets the golden flesh. These white hairs are not like ordinary dead hairs. They are alive and twisting in the air. In fact, this is a parasite.
, are called water devil parasites. They can only parasitize on water devil turtles. They have a symbiotic relationship with water devil turtles and need to rely on each other to survive.
Lesley smiled and said: "Don't worry, these turtles are called water devil turtles. They are very docile and will not attack humans easily. Even if they attack, you don't have to do it. Their attack power is not strong, just these dozens
I can easily handle a turtle."
Bingzhixie said: "That's not what I'm talking about."
‘Wow~~~’ There was some movement in the water again.
Leslie then discovered that a few wolves had swam down from the upper reaches of the river. They were hiding under the grass on the river bank, so they had never been seen: "Silver Bone Wolf King! This is not just a little trouble, it seems that they
Just like us, we jumped into the water to avoid the threat of the death plague."
There is not much direct relationship between the Silver Bone Wolf King and the Wind Bone Wolf. The Silver Bone Wolf is called the Wolf King because most of the 600 kinds of wolf monsters known in the world are wolf monsters.
Surrendering to the silver-bone wolves, it is not clear why this happens. Perhaps it is because they are born with the temperament of the king of the wolf clan, and some people say that they are the incarnation of Sirius.
Some scholars have done experiments on this, and put a silver-bone wolf into a pack of wolves of other races. They found that it didn't take long for the silver-bone wolf to become the leader of other wolf packs. Therefore, some people gradually called the silver-bone wolf
Known as the Silver Bone Wolf King.
Speaking of the strength of the Silver Bone Wolf King, it does not mean that it is outstanding. Their source of power generally relies on their own characteristics. Their teeth, hair and skeleton are all made of silver metal, and it is difficult to cut them with ordinary swords.
, which also allows them to easily crush the bones of various monsters.
At this time, the four silver-bone wolf kings in the river climbed onto the shore very lightly, and one of them still held half of the water devil turtle in his mouth.
Lesley pulled out her sword, blocked the river bank, and said to Bing Zhixie behind her: "Stand back, leave this place to me."
"Are you sure you don't need my help?" Bing Zhixie took a few steps back and asked.
Lesley frowned with a serious expression: "Boss, you'd better take care of yourself. If a fight breaks out soon, I won't have time to protect you."
She obviously didn't think too highly of Bing Zhixie's strength. A 16-year-old person probably only has the strength of a junior magician. Although Bing Zhixie has shown the ability of air stepping before, air stepping is only an intermediate magic of the wind system.
, in schools and colleges, junior magicians have already started to dabble in it, and some people have even learned to fly in the air during the apprenticeship stage. This is a required course for junior magicians in the magician course.
The four silver-bone wolf kings did not attack immediately after they came up from the water. They shook the water drops on their bodies. In the dim woods, eight green eyes were fixed on Leslie. The silver-bone wolf king was larger in size.
Big and about the same height as a pony, it is also a very smart monster. Even all wolves of the same species have this intelligence. If they find their prey showing fear, they will immediately swarm it.
When they are trying to resist, they will appear cautious and observe quietly from the sidelines until they find the prey's exposed weakness, then they will make a sudden attack.
But compared to the intelligence of wolves, people are smarter. Leslie discovered the weakness of this wolf pack first. Obviously this wolf pack is not a wolf pack. Maybe it was just now, but now there are only four of them.
The other companions may have become separated, or they may have been killed by the death plague rats just now, but no matter what, there are only four of them now.
The Silver Bone Wolf King is a group predator. Most of the time, they hunt prey in groups. Once their group suffers a sudden change and loses too many companions, they will become more and more cautious.
.(I don’t know if the wolf’s habits are like this, and I’m too lazy to check. I’ll just assume it’s like this. If not, you can just think it’s the unique habits of the Silver Bone Wolf King.)
Lesley decided to attack first. She knew that wolves also have a habit of calling their companions. When they find prey but cannot catch it, they will call nearby similar ones to attack together. So... the red shadow flashed, Lesley
Li stepped in front of the Wolf King in two steps, and struck the Silver Bone Wolf King's body with the blood sword first.
Bing Zhixie narrowed his eyes: "The speed is good, but it's a pity..."
Unfortunately, this sword did not kill the silver-bone wolf king. The silver-bone wolf king's reaction speed was also fast enough, and it actually escaped the fatal blow and only opened a bloody mouth on its chest. At the same time, another
The three-headed silver-bone wolf king also pounced on him at this moment.
Lesley didn't change her tactics. She had already expected what kind of situation she would fall into after one strike. Naturally, she also knew how to get out of this situation. This was a mercenary's transformation from an ordinary person with strength.
The only path for a master. She turned her body with the force of the sword: "Qingbo...sword slash!" The sword blade swept across and swung in a semicircle. Dozens of green wave blades were scattered like raindrops, crackling and hitting the three sides.
On the body of a silver-bone wolf king.
Bing Zhixie still said it was a pity. It would be better if this sword was replaced by a thunder knight. The Silver Bone Wolf King is weak against water and thunder, and the thunder element will cause them great damage. Take a step back and switch to a wind knight.
Although the blast sword slash of the warrior or the air-piercing slash of the warrior is not very effective in damaging the Silver Bone Wolf King, it can at least push them back to 15-20 meters away. This move is imitated by the wood-type Qingbo Sword Slash.
I learned the Water Wave Sword Slash of the water type. If it is not targeted at attribute weaknesses, it is not very powerful. It is somewhat effective against some monsters with low defenses, but it is not enough to deal with the Silver Bone Wolf King. Fortunately, this sword was also successful.
It prevented the Silver Bone Wolf Kings from killing them, but it didn't have any effect at all.
After Leslie blocked the attack of three silver-bone wolf kings with one sword, she swung her sword again to attack the injured wolf king.
Bing Zhixie frowned: "This guy is too eager to attack. She should jump up the tree at this time. Although the Silver Bone Wolf King can also climb up the tree, he is much clumsier than the intermediate knight. She
She should use her own advantages to fight. Rushing to gain advantage is the behavior of a fool. It will only make her more passive and more dangerous."
But Leslie didn't think so, and said in her heart: "No, I won't escape to the tree. Once they jump on the tree, they will definitely summon their companions. After so long, those monsters that were scared away will soon
Come back, without my protection, the employer will be in danger. I have to... I have to deal with them as soon as possible!" She waved the blood-red sword in her hand and rushed forward against the bite of the Silver Bone Wolf King. She didn't know
What would her employer, Bing Zhixie, feel like if he knew she thought this way?
People may be so different. If it were Bing Zhixie, his first thought would never be the safety of others. Because he instinctively wouldn't consider this, that's why he thought she was stupid.
Sometimes stupid people may not be stupid, they just have different starting points for thinking...
