Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

Chapter 214 Ratman Ambush

Before Drivedo finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly fell from the top of the cave. If Sylvia's cane hadn't rolled up a burst of magical darkness that caused the attacker to deviate from the established position, he would have prayed to Victoria. His resurrection technique was able to pull him up in time.

Within this variant of darkness, everyone except Sylvia became blind. The darkness not only made the attackers lose the ability to continue attacking and escaping, but also made Ron and others unable to see. It was difficult for people to fight back effectively. In this case, the only person they could rely on was Sylvia.

Fortunately, the vampire mage will not let them down.

"Wither!" As a palpitating wave of magic suddenly appeared and disappeared, the darkness around Ron receded like a tide. When he looked in the direction of Sylvia, the end of her cane was like the tip of a sword. It inserted into the heart of the attacker, but the state of the deceased showed that the cause of death was definitely not due to this physical fatal injury.

The attacker had a lean body and sparse hair, and his half-human, half-mouse appearance made it difficult for outsiders to accurately identify his gender, not to mention that Sylvia's withering technique had drained the moisture from his body. In just over ten seconds, it turned into a vigorous and fierce assassin, and turned into a shriveled and skinny mummy.

In the hands of the rat man, two shining daggers were scattered, and the faint light flickering on them made Ron palpitate - these were a pair of magic weapons. If he had been stabbed by such a murderous weapon just now...

"It's indeed a rat man," Driver gritted his teeth and reached out to pick up the two daggers and put them on his waist. "It's really outrageous. Even I didn't get such a good weapon. It can actually have two weapons at the same time." Bundle!"

Although the goblin hunter holds acid gems and the weapons in his hands are considered magic weapons, there are still some differences between them and real magic weapons.

"Ordinary weapons are difficult to cause substantial harm to them. This kind of magic weapon should be necessary for them." Sylvia stepped on the rat man's mummy and pulled out the cane with force.

The body that had been drained of water had her cane stuck inside. Fortunately, there was only one rat man nearby, otherwise she might have temporarily lost her fighting ability.

"I said Drivero, can you give me a dagger? I remember you are not used to using two daggers."

Facing Sylvia's outstretched hand, Driver shook his head like a rattle, "No! What dagger do you want as a spellcaster? Although I'm not used to dual-wielding, it can still be used!"

"Tsk, you stingy one," Sylvia curled her lips, "If you encounter a rat man again later, you won't be able to share the spoils!"

"It's easy for you two." Ron touched the back of his neck with lingering fear. It was still a little cold there. He took out a handful of talcum powder and a small amount of silver powder from his backpack. As he chanted, one of them would normally The unobservable world slowly unfolded in front of him.

Seeing through invisibility, in the next hour he will be able to see all invisible creatures and objects normally, and he will also be able to observe the etheric plane, and everything in it will appear in Ron's vision in a ghostly, translucent form. .

Including the double-digit night hounds Sylvia "adopted".

"The cave became crowded in an instant." Ron grinned, subconsciously trying to avoid the hound running in front of him, but the hound ran directly through his body. After all, it was not actually in the cave.

"Do you need Sylvia and I?" Victoria asked, "I can also use See Through Invisibility. It's always a good thing to have more pairs of eyes."

"We don't have so many material reserves," Ron checked his backpack. "Although the spell can last for a full hour, we don't know anything about the scale of this cave. It's better to have some backup."

"There's not that much material" is a euphemistic way of saying it. In fact, they only brought two copies of the materials for seeing through invisibility just in case. The silver powder could be diverted from the casting materials of other spells, but there was no good way to supplement the talcum powder.

"Advance slowly, this will reduce the possibility of being ambushed," Ivy suggested, "Dreyfudo, don't shrink back, come forward and explore the way!"

"Oh, Ratman." The goblin hunter pouted and walked over reluctantly. Ratmen like to ambush. There must be a lot of traps along the way, so he has a lot to do.

After walking for a while, Sera looked at the goblin at the front, with his face almost touching the ground, and a question suddenly popped up in his mind: "Dreyford, don't you have your little friend? Why? Don’t let them come out to explore?”

"What we have to face are rat men," Drayford took out his newly acquired dagger, carefully unlocked the trap in front of him, and said casually, "Although they are not shape-shifting creatures, as lycanthropes, they can transform into human beings. He switches back and forth between humans and giant rats, and is naturally close to rats.”

"There's a chance they could detect my rat colony and turn them against them or blend in, and we can't take that risk."

"As for Dabai, he is too conspicuous. There are ordinary gray rats here, so he will be exposed immediately."

Dabai got out of his clothes, exposed his little head, twitched his beard and made a "squeak" sound in approval.

"Okay, there shouldn't be any more traps ahead," Driver stood up and stretched his body. The lower half of the body of the previous corpse was hanging on this trap, which forced him to spend more energy to prevent the trap from being triggered again. "I'm so tired, come here quickly, there seems to be a cliff ahead, and there is not even a rope. I don't know how those ratmen passed through."

The goblin hunter was right. When Ron and the others caught up, an unknown force cut the path ahead into two sections. There were no traces of ropes or bridges on both sides of the cliff, but there were obvious ratman footprints on the muddy soil opposite. The path leading to their nest did extend deeper.

"Do they have strong jumping ability?" Ivy looked at the distance on both sides, "If I take off my armor and shield, I should be able to jump over directly."

"Just because you can do it doesn't mean everyone can do it," Sylvia glanced at her, then grabbed the back of Driver's collar. Just now, the goblin hunter was frantically trying on the edge of the cliff, "Are you crazy? It's a miracle that you can jump over with your short legs, you know?"

"I have to try it," the goblin hunter struggled in the hand of the vampire, and he suddenly remembered something, "Ron, by the way! Do you have a spell that can enhance jumping ability? I remember you used it to avoid the attack of the manticore before."

"Jumping," Driver reminded Ron, and he also remembered, "It can increase the jumping ability to three times in a short period of time, so there will be no problem crossing here!"
