Chapter 6 Traps

Porter ran desperately in the jungle.

His armor had been discarded to reduce the burden, and his coat had been reduced to rags by branches and thorns.

His body and face were covered with dirt and blood stains. His hair was soaked with sweat and became strands, sticking tightly to his scalp.

Huchi, wheeze.

Potter's steps became a little staggering. His chest heaved violently. Every breath of air he took into his lungs became hot.

He walked through the woods, looking behind him in panic from time to time.

Although there was nothing in his field of vision, he knew that there was a person following him, waiting like the god of death for an opportunity to give him a fatal blow.

Potter realized something was wrong ten minutes ago.

First, he discovered that the team of Solan knights suddenly increased their speed, heading in an almost straight line in the direction of Tie Lun, and stopped by a waterfall, as if they were planning something.

Secondly, Porter discovered that the intensity of his harassment attacks on the enemy was getting weaker and weaker. The scouts who used to communicate with each other using pigeon whistles from time to time lost news one after another.

They fell silent in the silent forest. It was as if someone had buried them in a grave.

This feeling made Porter's hair stand on end. He started searching based on his memory of the location of his subordinates.

However, all he found were corpses.

And when he saw Scar, the most powerful man under his command, being nailed to a big tree by several arrows, with shock and fear still lingering in his wide-open eyes, he started to escape without hesitation.

At that time, he was not completely clear about the other party's plan, but the sense of smell of an old falcon had already made him understand that he had fallen into a trap. And the previous suggestion of letting Tie Lun come back to eat these Solan knights was even more of a mistake.

Fatal error.

He must warn Tie Lun.

Porter didn't try to find the hunter, nor did he try to contact other people. Instead, he ran silently.

But just like that, when he ran less than three kilometers, he was still targeted by the mysterious hunter.

No matter what method he uses, he can't get rid of this person.

And as long as he paused for a moment, an arrow would pass through the dense forest leaves and go straight to his vital points. His head, throat, heart and even his vagina... The opponent's archery skills were extremely superb. Every arrow was forced to hit him.

Depot had to use all his strength to avoid it.

Porter could only keep running, hoping to use his speed, endurance and experience to wear down his opponents.

As he rolled and climbed down a steep slope covered with fallen leaves and mud, Porter stopped.

Ahead is a wetland with abundant water and grass. It is in the shade of a mountain and looks extremely dark. Under normal circumstances, Potter would definitely go around it. Because he knows that this kind of place is a haven for swamps, plagues, viruses, various poisonous insects and even ghosts.

paradise.

But now... Potter's eyes flashed with joy, he took out a white jade-like bone in his arms, looked at it, and ran forward quickly.

After a while, a figure flew over like a meteor, and Roy had appeared at the place where Porter had just stayed.

He carefully examined the traces on the ground and turned his gaze to the dark forest wetland.

Porter was the last target he hunted, and also the most difficult one.

This is an old falcon. He is cautious, alert, has rich experience and has a variety of concealment, anti-tracking and trap-laying skills.

When Roy was hunting another scout, Porter had already sensed something was wrong and began to flee. When Roy killed the scout and searched for Porter, he was already two kilometers away.

If Potter hadn't been within the range of the Eye of the Dead, Roy would have almost lost his whereabouts.

During this pursuit, Roy dismantled at least three traps and saw through five false turns by Porter.

However, this also cost him a lot of time.

After confirming that Porter had entered the forest wetland, Roy quickly followed in.

After walking thirty meters, the ground became increasingly slippery. The water on the ground was already ankle deep. There was mud under the water.

Just when Roy was about to step over a tuft of grass, he suddenly fell down.

A green phosphorus fire flashed past his head. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have become a scorched corpse immediately if he was concentrated by this phosphorus fire. The phosphorus fire would directly burn his soul and

Spread the poison of death throughout his body.

However, the crisis was not over. The phosphorus fire fell into the shallow water at the feet. With a bang, it was like falling into kerosene and spread violently.

The dark jungle was illuminated by the green flames.

Roy rolled around, got up and was about to run to the side, but at this moment, with a ghostly cry, three black smoke vortexes appeared on the ground in a Z-shaped shape. The next second, three pale skeletons appeared

The soldiers stepped out at the same time.

Three skeleton soldiers happened to be blocking Roy's way, and they slashed at him with their bone knives at the same time.

The danger so close at hand made Roy's scalp numb. What shocked him was that he was not aware of the phosphorus fire before or the appearance of these skeleton soldiers.

You know, he is an out-and-out necromancer!

Although Roy rarely uses necromancy magic, he has never stopped studying and practicing the necromancy magic in Austin's Magic Notes these days.

Especially in desperate situations, undead magic is the life-saving means that he, Maler and Oliver can survive. I don't know how many times, he relied on bone spears, bone walls, skeleton soldiers and blood corpse control skills to stay in the rear.

Only then did he escape the pursuit of the monsters.

And he never expected that after receiving the true biography of the Terror Prince Austin, he didn't even notice any undead aura before these three skeleton soldiers appeared.

Not only that, his elemental eyes did not even see the gathering of blood elements and blood element magic arrays before the undead magic was released!

That Lieutenant Scout Porter is actually a necromancer?

This idea flashed through Roy's mind and was immediately rejected by him. If the other party was a mage, there was no way he wouldn't be able to detect a trace of magic in the other party.

He must be using some kind of secret weapon!

However, now was not the time to think about these things. Roy flashed his body, took a breeze step, and prepared to pass through the gap between the skeleton soldiers.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed something was wrong with the bunches of thorns and vines between the three skeletons. Not only did he find that the sharp and thin barbs of the thorns were somewhat black. At the same time, he also smelled a hint of mint leaves.

smell.

Before he could recover, a sharp sword beside him was like lightning, piercing his vest!

Chain trap!

Roy's hair stood on end.

The smell of mint leaves in thorns comes from the venom of a plant called Nether Flower. Sprinkling the venom into dense thorn vines can form a natural trap.

As long as the skin is scratched by these barbs, even a small wound can be fatal.

In fact, among the traps Roy set for Tie Lun, there was a similar trap. However, he used the venom of another demonized plant called Siren's Song. It is not fatal, but it has many effects.

Strong hallucinogenic effect.

And around this patch of thorny vines, Porter calculated every step to the extreme.

When Roy passed by, he first attacked with phosphorus fire, forcing Roy to subconsciously avoid to a slightly higher ground.

Subsequently, the appearance of three skeleton soldiers blocked Roy's other routes. Only a small gap was left between the three skeleton soldiers. If Roy rushed directly through the gap, he would step into the poisonous thorns.

in the trap.

Not only that, Potter himself also hid nearby and made a sneak attack. It would be best if the sneak attack was successful. If the sneak attack failed, he would further push Roy towards the direction of the thorn vines.

Roy instantly understood the other party's arrangement.

It has to be said that Porter is indeed an old Falcon with rich experience and sophisticated methods. This trap made full use of the terrain conditions and fully calculated the opponent's reaction. If it had been anyone else, this would have been a dead end.

However, Porter didn't understand Roy.

For Roy, this seemingly seamless trap had two huge loopholes.

In the blink of an eye, Porter's sword and the skeleton soldier's bone knife were in front of him. Roy did not choose to pass through the gap between the skeletons. Instead, he kicked his feet and changed from the breeze step to the floating step. His body was like a

Soaring into the sky like a big bird.

This was indeed beyond Potter's expectation.

However, instead of being panicked, Potter's face showed a hint of a sinister smile.

He didn't know if the black-haired boy had seen through his trap, but that was no longer important. You know, although he escaped from being attacked by himself and the three skeleton soldiers by jumping up, there was no leverage in the air.

Sooner or later, he will fall.

At the moment of free fall, even the Great Bright Knight could not escape the deliberate attack from below.

He and three skeleton soldiers are enough to kill him!

As a result, the sword in Potter's hand drew a circle, circled behind him, and recharged his strength, preparing to thrust out again.

According to his calculations, when his sword thrust out, it was exactly when the black-haired boy hit the ground. The long sword would penetrate his heart without any hindrance, and then knock him down with great force, knocking him down.

He was nailed to the ground.

But what Porter didn't expect was that at this moment, Roy stepped into the air, and his figure actually took another step higher in the air without any support.

This caused Porter's attack rhythm to be completely out of control.

Porter, who was already preparing to stab with his sword, hurriedly retracted his sword and circled it again, transforming the attack into another attack.

However, the changes in movements, the rapid braking of the battle ring and fighting spirit made Porter's chest feel as if he had been hit hard by a sledgehammer, causing him to feel depressed for a while.

Damn it!

Potter's hatred for this black-haired boy deepened in his heart. At the same time, the sword in his hand became even stronger. He made up his mind to stab this boy to the core when he fell.

cold!

But just when his long sword had just turned around, Roy in the air suddenly stepped on it again...

Looking at the young man who continued to hang in the air, Potter gritted his teeth and the veins on his forehead were exposed.

What the hell is going on?

The third time!

Bastard! You're going to fall down this time! Potter's sword continues to circle.

But the next second, he saw Roy stepping on him again.

The fourth time...the fifth time...

It's very slow to say. However, all this happened in just a few seconds. But for Porter, who was tossing back and forth between attacking and accumulating power again and again, these few seconds felt like several years.

So long, so frustrating.

He stared at Roy in the air and felt that his neck was about to break.

If Roy hadn't climbed lower and lower every time he stepped into the air, and the time he stayed in the air had become shorter and shorter, he would have turned around and ran away. He would rather give up this opportunity to kill his opponent than fight this again.

The evil boy played.

After Roy stepped into the air for the sixth time, his figure finally began to fall unstoppably.

With a ferocious look on his face, Potter stabbed out with his sword.

He knew that he had waited for it. This time, there was no need to hesitate or hold back!

However, just when Potter was about to pierce his opponent's body with the long sword in his hand, he suddenly saw the confused-looking black-haired boy in the air giving him a teasing smile.

And the next second, a pair of fiery red light wings appeared on the young man's back, taking him flying high.

Potter raised his head, and the sword in his hand stabbed the air fiercely. At the same time, his eyes stayed in the air blankly, without focus.

It was this brief absence that prevented him from realizing that three pale bone knives had cut into his body from different directions.

Potter screamed!

He lowered his head and looked at the three expressionless skeleton soldiers in disbelief. He watched them pull the bone knives away from his body, and then watched them stab them at the same time.

Poof! The three bone knives intersected in Potter's body once again.

With a bang, the long sword in Potter's hand fell to the ground, and blood poured out of his mouth. He looked at the phalanx clenched in his left hand, and his eyes gradually dimmed, like a candlelight in the wind, only a slight flicker of light.

After swaying for a moment, it was completely extinguished.

Until his death, he could not figure out why the skeleton soldiers he summoned attacked him.

Roy landed.

At his feet, Potter's eyes were still wide open and he was still staring blankly.

Roy shrugged his shoulders with an innocent look on his face. He couldn't blame himself for this. The trap set by Captain Fei Lie was really suitable for him. If he didn't take advantage of it, he would be sorry for his careful efforts.

layout.

In fact, the moment he was outflanked, Roy was able to escape from the opponent's attack with the help of the Fire Wing Spirit Devouring Armor.

The reason why he used the air step to hang Porter again and again was just to delay time.

Skeleton summoning is a low-level spell commonly used by necromancers. Skeletons are summoned from the underworld and fight according to the summoner's will. A powerful necromancer can even summon an army of underworld.

However, in battles between necromancers, skeleton summoning is rarely used. The reason is simple. Because high-level necromancers can erase the soul brand planted on the skeleton soldiers by their opponents and replace it with their own brand.

Among necromancers, using skeleton soldiers to attack necromancers has the same meaning as beating a dog with a meat bun.

Potter never dreamed that Roy was actually a necromancer. He was also a disciple of the Terror Prince Austin.

Although the floating time of just a few seconds was short, it was enough for Roy to erase the soul imprints of these three skeleton soldiers and control them.

When Porter focused entirely on himself and became frustrated with his repeated attempts, he did not know that he had walked into the trap of his own men.

Otherwise, it would be really not easy for three skeleton soldiers to kill an agile Falcon.

Roy leaned down, scraped at Potter's body, and threw all the valuables into his space ring.

He was already very familiar with this routine.

Making money from your enemies has always been a knightly tradition.

At least from this point of view, Kameni can't find any fault with Roy. In other aspects, Roy may not meet the requirements of a knight, but in this aspect, no one can do better than him.

As a senior falcon, Porter didn't have much money, but he had a lot of good things. Especially all kinds of poisons and gadgets used for tracking and setting traps, which couldn't be bought with money.

What interested Roy the most was naturally the white jade finger bone he had been holding tightly in his hand.

Roy turned his finger bones over and over again.

This finger bone is much larger than the average human finger bone. Although it is only one section, its length is more than ten centimeters and its diameter is close to two centimeters. It looks like a jade flute without any holes.

On the finger bones, there was a set of exquisite and mysterious magic patterns engraved on it. The fine and silky magic patterns were entwined together. Roy only looked at it for a short while and felt that his mind was completely attracted to it.

.Mental energy is consumed quickly.

After trying hard to get rid of the influence of the magic pattern, Roy could confirm that what was engraved on the finger bones was a high-level undead summoning array. If it were not for the damage, what would be summoned by activating the magic pattern would not be just a few skeletons.

Soldier!

What's more important is that this finger bone exudes a strong breath of life. It is this breath of life that covers up the blood element fluctuations of undead magic.

Roy tried it. Whether he released the bone spear or summoned the skeleton, the undead aura that was originally easily detectable disappeared. The gathered blood elements were shrouded in the aura of life, and not even a trace leaked out. Even if someone stood

It’s hard to notice even when you’re around yourself!

This is great stuff!

Roy retracted his knuckles and planned to ask Austin for advice again when he saw him.

Knowing the direction, Roy flew towards the waterfall.

The trap has been laid and all the tentacles have been cut off. Now, all we have to do is wait for Tie Lun to take the bait.
