Shadow Covenant

Chapter 211 "Spirit of the Forest"

There was a scalp-numbing whining sound in the emerald green valley all the time, like the hissing sound of an ancient tree cracking, and in this sound, Woody could clearly detect that the number of clusters of creeping monsters was still increasing increase.

On the left, on the right, and around corners, new sprawling monsters continued to emerge, and the number quickly exceeded twenty. Although Cecil and Kaverman continued to use spells and arrows, all they could do was maintain the status quo , Cecil obviously wanted to use a high-ring spell to solve the problem here.

But Woody stopped her by speaking early.

"Magic weapon!"

Cecil also saw clearly the implication conveyed by his eyes.

I can handle it, don't move around.

Although the high-ring spells, like the thundercloud storm before, can deal with all the monsters in the valley, but this trip, or the guys in the valley city, are not limited to only creep monsters, so in order to pursue safety, Cecil's high-ring spells naturally It is regarded as a hole card, at least in this place, it cannot be easily wasted.

Cecil understood this, so he let go of the prepared staff, and the ring in his hand lighted up slightly. Along with a spell, Woody's slender extraordinary curved sword was immediately cast a layer of scorching red visible to the naked eye.

——"Magic weapon."

Feeling the warmth from the palm of his hand, Woody understood that the enchantment Cecil applied was already in place, so he rushed out without hesitation, but it was not facing the front, but not at the side of the creeping monster's direction at all.

Due to the body of the creep monster, its eyesight can only see the front and the inconspicuous left and right sides, so Woody's plan is to avoid their vision first, and then find a chance to take care of them one by one.

This is the basic law of group battles. Except for berserkers, few professionals will directly rush into the crowd to open Wushuang, or those who dare to do so have already entered the Styx. The God of Death treats everything equally, and even fools Same.

"call."

Woody adjusted the frequency of his breathing. In addition to adding shadow protection to himself just now, Cecil blessed him with several buff spells.

——"Bear's Tenacity."

——"The power of the bull."

——"The majesty of the eagle."

——"The cunning of the fox."

——"The wisdom of the owl."

— "The Dexterity of a Cat."

And most importantly.

——"Acceleration technique."

According to the famous theory of relativity of the players in the game "Saint", as long as my agility is faster than yours, and your agility is restricted and enters a deceleration state, then I will speed up and you will slow down, one increase and one decrease, in other words It is equal to control.

Woody didn't know if he had controlled the group of creeping monsters, but what he could feel was that the picture in his field of vision slowed down again, and the consequence of his faster thinking was that Woody could approach the creeping monsters silently. They hid in the shadows without being noticed by them, and quickly rushed towards the creeping monster closest to them.

Within a certain distance, the creeping monster that was Woody's target obviously sensed something, and immediately separated four vine tentacles and waved them in Woody's direction. Woody, who soared to 21 points under "Elegance", is still too slow, like a child's punch, soft and without a trace of sharp breath.

With a random roll and a forward pounce, Woody dodged the first two vines that arrived, and then turned sideways and jumped to avoid the remaining vines again. At this time, Woody had already circled behind the creeping monster , At this time, he didn't stay in place to wait for the opportunity, but resolutely stepped on the gap where the vine man's body was wrapped around the vine man, and went up the vine. After finding the core position of its back, he stopped hesitating and forehanded The slender curved sword he was holding moved.

And only at the moment after the shot, the slender curved sword in Woody's hand burst out with a dazzling mithril color, and matched with the scorching element imposed by the "magic weapon" spell on the knife, the fiery red and A blade light intertwined with silver and white took shape impressively.

As a result, Kaverman and Cecil, who were dealing with the scrambling monsters in front of them, saw the young demon hunter rushing into the scrambling monsters behind, and directly left behind the scrambling monsters in a swift and efficient manner There was a deep burn mark, and the armor woven by Vineman was in front of the curved sword, like butter meeting a hot knife, it melted easily, and if you observe carefully, you can still see faint sparks bursting out in the wound of the creeping monster.

The injured vine monster immediately began to let out an indescribable high-pitched scream, its huge body began to tremble, and the dozens of vines it manipulated danced like demons, waving wantonly, wrapping the body around it airtight, during the period There were dozens of times that the creeping monster wanted to catch the hateful human standing behind it at this time, but Woody easily dodged them all.

The blind spot behind the sprawling monster has long been known to everyone in the previous life. Perhaps at the beginning, the player will be dominated by the physical defense, attack speed, and multiple attacks of a monster that does not pull, but after a long time, they will naturally find a way. The best way to easily kill it is to seize the opportunity when it is in a rage.

Woody bent down slightly, taking advantage of the air waving by the vine man, hooked his feet directly on a thick vine wrapped around the surface of the scrambler's body, and before it could react, his body leaned back slightly, and the long knife Then it fell backwards and downwards. At this time, Woody's heart was focused on nothing else. He held the hilt of the curved sword with both hands, with the tip of the sword facing upwards. Without hesitation, he exerted force directly from his waist, and not only did his body return from the upside-down world. Normally, the curved sword in his hand also pierced into the bloated body of the creeping monster at an incredible angle.

Click!
This time, the whine of the creeping monster could almost feel the pain even Woody who was sitting on it.

Soon, soon.

There was no fluctuation in Woody's heart. He directly held the hilt of the curved sword inserted into half of the blade with his right hand, and then pushed forward with the other hand, and then pulled it obliquely.

One shot kills!

When it touched the weak core of the vine man hidden under the vine man, the vine man under Woody suddenly looked like a malfunctioning machine. With the sound of vines falling to the ground and the splashing of stagnant water, the creeping monster fell directly into the muddy grass in the valley, unable to resist anymore.

——"The battle is over!"

——"Your attack caused 15 (+1) piercing damage to the creeping monster, and the critical attack was successful! The damage was doubled!...The target died!..."

——"You have gained 300 experience points."

……

Woody, who killed a creeping monster, did not breathe a sigh of relief. Looking at the information across the data, he lifted his spirits even more. He directly pulled out the curved sword embedded in the creeping monster's body, and quickly moved towards the creeping monster on the other side. The monster rushed, and there was not much time left for him, not to mention, the time of the acceleration technique is very precious, he has to take advantage of this opportunity to deal with more sprawling monsters, it is impossible to get so much experience in the future so easy.

Naturally, Cecil and Kaverman didn't stop there either. One after another spells and arrows, they controlled more and more scrambled monster clusters within an acceptable range, and soon the scrambled monsters in front of the valley The swarms of corpses piled up into a hill, and at the same time, fire and smoke were everywhere. Woody didn't know how much he had chopped, but he only knew that the vines he killed along the way had increased his experience points by two times out of thin air. One-third, very good harvest.

Seeing that the experience value has become more abundant, approaching [-] experience points, Woody said that it is a lie to be dissatisfied, but who would think too much experience, not to mention that the corpses of these sprawling monsters also have good alchemy materials, as long as It needs to be collected a little after the war. With so many corpses of creeping monsters, it is estimated that they will be a lot of money if they change hands.

However, when Woody's battlefield shifted from the left side to the back end of the battlefield, he discovered that the battlefield had changed slightly at some point.

The fire that was enough to dispel the darkness of the valley suddenly dimmed, the smoke spread, the sky turned gray, and visibility decreased. Woody couldn't even see the cliffs more than ten meters away.

Feeling something was wrong, Woody stopped immediately, and at the same time called Cecil's name with his telepathic ability.

"I'm here!"

The tone of the young mage was a little hurried. Although she had the ability of telepathy, this ability could not directly penetrate into people's thinking like Woody. She could only make one-way calls, which were usually used for communication with magic pets.

"I called you many times just now, didn't you hear?" She asked immediately.

"what happened?"

Woody looked left and right, looked around, and found that the thick smoke was getting denser, and the whole world turned into a vast expanse of whiteness. Only his perception clearly told him that there was something moving in the fog.

His left hand used "virtue" and used his faith to turn it into a small shield. As a senior melee player in his previous life, he was naturally able to play with shields. Defense will make his counterattack more easily.

"A cloud of fog just now swallowed everything up! Are you okay? I'm going to blow it away with the Wind Spell now."

As soon as Cecil explained, Woody was keenly aware of something passing through his body.

Woody's alertness was at its peak, he said to Cecil.

"The wind-making technique is useless. This should be a domain position. You should use the method of a spellcaster to solve it. I can still hold on, but I don't know what to do next."

Woody naturally had no idea, but he also understood why the thick fog found his own reasons, and he didn't blame himself why he was so reckless. After all, he was the weakest among the three, both in appearance and in essence.

The persimmons are soft and soft, this is a truth that monsters understand.

But he really didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing in this place close to human habitation. That's right, according to Woody's perception, combined with the monster hunting experience in his previous life, he already knows what the monster that creates this fog is. What is it.

Long extinct in the world of the witcher, there are still traces of naturally corrupted monsters in remote places on other planes.

As famous as the advanced Blighter among druids, and the notorious spirit.

——"Spirit."

Different from the cuteness and innocence of the elves in the forest, the elves are monsters resurrected from the resentment of all the dead creatures in the forest. They are terrifying and selfish, wandering in its jurisdiction like ghosts, and because of its iconic It has a huge skeleton male deer head, so many people call it the deer head essence.

In remote areas, some local aborigines would worship it as a god. Woody remembered that there was a plane of deer head spirit who almost became a demigod. At that time, several legendary teams were folded in it. Later, at a huge price, someone summoned nine golden dragons with the Dragon Clan Covenant, burned the huge forest that occupied half of the continent, and succeeded in eradicating the deer head spirit who was about to become a god.

And this deer's head spirit that suddenly appeared and stared at him, judging from the area that covers the Great Rift Valley forest, the challenge level of this elf is definitely not low, and judging from the man-made creeping monsters, it may be It is also a deliberately created monster.

Is it so tricky?
Woody couldn't help but gritted his teeth. He had already guessed that the man behind the scenes was probably the spirit of nature who became Viscount Korn as a substitute, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult, and he fell into a difficult situation without even seeing anyone In the predicament, if there were not two teammates outside the fog, he might not be able to handle this task by himself.

Fortunately, the elf is most afraid of fire, and before he started fighting, in order to better penetrate the natural armor of the creeping monster, he asked Cecil to bless him with a magic weapon with fire damage. To restrain the elves, as long as they are a little more careful and delay the time, Cecil should be fine soon.

Of course, Woody will not pin all his hopes on other people. After the incident of the monk girl, Woody will never think of relying on other people to complete the task. With a flustered mind, in this situation, a hasty decision will only push him into the abyss of death step by step.

He needs to calm down!
However, someone didn't want him to calm down. The black shadow in the gray mist no longer lingered, and seemed to have finally made up his mind and galloped towards Woody's direction.

One, two, three...

Relying on the feedback from his senses, Woody keenly sensed that there were six creatures lurking in all directions of the gray mist and rushing towards them.

It is quite difficult to deal with the elves in the forest environment. The animals and plants in the forest act according to the elves' commands.

So Woody knew without a second thought that this was the beast enslaved by the elf, usually a wolf in this case, sometimes a leopard, for only they would linger, and finally, at the elf's command, , was forced to attack.

Sure enough, with the thick fog in front of the left, a giant gray wolf with a ferocious face and a height of more than one meter suddenly jumped out of the fog. Giant gray wolf.

Such is the case with wolves.

It's fine if you don't make a move, but once you make a move, you will definitely control the prey tightly.
