11
The shrill cries rang half way and suddenly stopped, a too late to hide guard was struck by a lightning bolt with his horse together, in a second, he was struck into pieces of black debris by the second lightning bolt.
We could only had our bodies bonded tightly to the ground, let the many broken pieces which were splashed up by the lightning struck on the ground fell on the bodies, and let the faces covered with dust. The closely associated horses for the last couple days... had all disappeared.
"Marf!" I yelled out loudly.
"The great ice storm!" the behind Marf jumped to the sky from the horse back, he shot four flickering white light arrows at the left mountainside in one time, "left side!"
"Enemy attack!" the fell back to the ground Marf pulled the arrows from his back, and gave the warning loudly. The Great Ice Storm? Maybe he could use that in five more years, but just now those were only the normal ice arrows.
Marf's cheating won some time for us, I had to grasped it firmly. No matter who were the attackers, if they had an earth class wizard, gave us something like earth wrath, then that would be really game over.
"Moah, Meza! right side! Hairt come with me!" I got up from the ground with hands and feet and dashed over to the hillside, Hairt followed behind me with a roar. Although the attackers were from the left side, but we also had to guard against the right side.
When we almost got to the hillside, the second wave of the magic attacks was coming. This time it was not the dark clouds, it's just a share of lightning, but, it's too big! Moreover, it struck toward me sideway from the sky!
I pulled the knife out with my left hand like crazy, and I threw the knife scabbard to over my head. At the same time, threw myself forward.
Attracted by the thrown to air scabbard, the lightning slightly changed a bit of direction, with "pa" a loud bang, the black iron scabbard was hit into pieces, the rest of the lightning blasted out a big hole on the ground.
I seemed to be kicked by somebody, the originally almost touched the ground body was blown to fly and fall on the hillside by the explosion. What kind of person? No need the chanting to use the magic?
I bit my teeth, bowed my waist, the hands held the ground and stood up, I rushed to a grove on the slope.
"The Great Ice Storm!" a few ice arrows flied over my head, it's Marf supporting me. Moah and uncle meza's shouting were spread over from the right slope, the walking in the hillside infantries were shouting loudly to blunt come over too, however, compared with the powerful lightning, their speed was too slow.
"By myself!" I said to myself secretly, it's not far from the grove.
A black figure jumped out from the woods, he shook the axe in his hand, Marf those "Great Ice Storm" arrows were crashed onto the ground. A dwarf! You are a dwarf, why do you need to jump that high?
Another guy in a black cloak stood up from the hiding bush, he lifted the silver bow in his hand, and struck away Marf's last "Great Ice Storm". His right hand then buckled the bowstring, a black arrowhead aimed at me.
"Sa tou yi--" that first jumped out guy fell on the ground, nobody knew what was talking in his mouth, he swayed his axe at me.
Could you be slower a bit? I hadn't stood steadily yet!
I lifted my knife to block, made use of the coming power from the dwarf axe, rolled a round on the ground, and then ran away around his left side.
"Ao!" the dwarf might feel not that great, he made a roar and chased after me closely. Chase me? With your those two short legs? Shit!
The black cloak archer saw that I was running toward him, he was still very calm, that arrow on the silver bow was still aiming at me exactly the same.
"SA tou yi--" the axe dwarf behind me jumped up once again, I didn't need to look back, his axe might be splitting at my head with the wind sound.
Defy death! I turned around and put the mountain knife over my head to meet the dwarf, I shouted loudly once again, "Marf!"
The dwarf jumped very high, he never thought that I would stop suddenly and turn around. In a moment, he passed over my head, and fell to his predetermined place very helplessly. In this little time, Hairt had already arrived.
"The Great--Ice--Storm!" Marf's voice came up once again.
You still playing this? Your big watermelon, can you play something else? I almost cried out. I and Hairt took a look at each other, then the sword and knife killed to the dwarf one left and one right.
The just landed on the ground dwarf couldn't stand still yet, he was hacked by Hairt's heavy sword and took a step back. He hadn't got his breath back yet, I turned my blade, and had already left a big cut on his shoulder. This is the result of the training we had together, the effect of one plus one is greater than two.
When it's my turn to attack, with the sound "snap", the archer shot his first arrow since he showed up. He worked it very well, either I kept attacking, I would be hit by an arrow; or I didn't attack, the dwarf would hold back the initiative.
I didn't have too much to think, I still hacked the knife in my hand down heavily, at the same time I adjusted the direction of my body, I moved my heart some distance away from the original place where the arrow aimed at, I could only do so much.
"Mmm!" the pain was killing! The arrow shot through my shoulder, left a blood hole on it, fuck, what kind of person! What I was wearing is the black iron armor!
The dwarf got hit by Hairt's sword once again, or he was more miserable, the right arm just connected the shoulder with a layer of skin only. Hairt should be able to take care of him all by himself, my opponent had now become that archer. In this distance, if I blunt rushed over there, he should have the time to shot one more arrow, but concerned about his archery, one arrow would kill me this little life.
And... the sorcerer behind him!
How should I do? If I don't rush to there, I would be definitely dead.
Well, I would do what I can do to reverse this seemingly hopeless situation. My eyes had a stare, I rushed over toward the archer.
"The Great Ice Storm!" Marf began to give me the "powerful support" once again.
Heard the weak voice, the archer smiled grimly, the arrow in his hand was not put on the bowstring. I knew, he would block away Marf's arrows first and then shoot me to dead, a good archer can pull the bowstring and aim instantaneously.
"Ah!" I ran faster and faster, the archer smiled colder and colder.
Marf's arrow flight over my head, I also lifted my knife over my head, come on! Even if I would be shot through my heart by your arrow, I still would also drag you to die together!
The archer had his bow a block, it collided with the arrows shot by Marf together. After a clear and crisp sound, Marf's arrows were blocked and flied away. And then he squat his body down, put his right leg backward, placed the bow stance and put the arrow on the bowstring, and pulled the bowstring and aimed at...
He accomplished the whole movements at one go, it's very handsome and cool.
"Ah! Ah!" I shouted and blunt rushed near to him, he didn't shoot the arrow out. Everyone knows the truth that the closer the arrow will be more accurate, my heart twisted into a chunk.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" I blunt rushed over closer, the arrow were not shot out yet! I saw his lips moved slightly, my face was getting numb to it. He still added the magic on the arrow? Shit, this time I would die very ugly.
"Ah! Ah! Ah?" when I blunt rushed over to the place almost couldn't be closer, the arrow hadn't been shot out over yet! My eyeballs nearly fell down, he ate something wrong? Or he had other conspiracy?
"Ah--" I didn't stop my feet, I rushed to his side like a gush of wind, I finally knew the answer.
"Great... Ice...Arrow... it... is... really... the... Great... Ice... Arrow..." I swear to god, he was saying like this, "cheat... me... dirty..."
My brain couldn't find a reasonable explain for this fact, but I think my facial expression might be very idiotic, because I just reminded myself that I should give him a cut with the knife after I ran to behind him.
<
br /> His body was frozen by the great ice, the without head body still maintained that position even after he fell down slowly, handsome, really very handsome, absolutely handsome to the fullest into the failure.
I rushed into the woods.
A sorcerer in black robe stood quietly in a small vacant place in the woods, he wore a mask on his face.
"Are you waiting for me?" finally I could see face to face with this guy, this let my whole body relaxed down. While I was observing the situation around, I spoke to him, "if you don't want to die, kneel down to me."
"There's no other people around, you don't need to be nervous." he had a very low voice, "when I came to here, I have already prepared for the death. If I can go back alive, of course it's the gift of god, it's nothing to deal with whether kneel down to you or not."
"Take a look at what situation you are at right now," I put my mountain knife on my shoulder, stepped forward and said, "your men are all over, you destiny is in my hand. Kneel down."
"Yes, they are all over." the sorcerer took a look around, "there's only me left over here."
"In this close distance, you don't have enough time to use magic." I laughed, "but, it should be possible for you to use the lightning kind or something."
Outside of the woods, large group of the infantries had arrived, I could even hear the step sounds of my brothers, the dwarf didn't make any sounds out after a roar.
"Really?" the sorcerer laughed too, "what do you say about the magic which have already been used then?"
With his words, the trees and vines grew like mad by the side, they grew into an green protective overhead screen mobbed us in instantly.
"See that?" he raised his head a bit, "it will take some time for your people to open this barrier."
"I hate green!" saw that I sent a fireball but with no result to these vines, I said hatefully, "but you don't need to worry, I'll make you satisfied!"
"I think so too." he said slowly, "put aside your other things not to talk about, just speak of only your mind, response and fighting skill, you are very excellent."
"You shrink in here like a turtle..." I replied to him, "who are you?"
"I can tell you." he talked slowly, "I'm a sorcerer very good at the magic of thunder class and nature class. And the thunder class is my best in all. Of course, as a sorcerer work for money, I know a bit of the space magic for escape after I have finished my jobs."
"Your magic can be used without any chanting?"
"Need."
"You lie to me? You think that I couldn't hear the sound?"
"There's a little time left," he said, "I will let you die understood."
"Fuck... Tell your bullshit!"
"As for a blood-sucking vampire race people, the rude language won't let me excited." he pulled down the hat of the cloak, took off the mask, a pale thin face was shown in front of me. He had a smile at me, a few of sharp teeth proved his identity.
"The... Vampire?" I was shocked, "You?"
"Yes, I'm earl Tario of the Azure Jade vampire race."
"Wait a minute! Your chief and I are good friends!"
"Sir Kone," he seemed to be absent-minded wiping his mask, "what you said is the White Feather vampire clan, they are our enemy for generations."
Enemy?
"You don't need to doubt about that, the people sneak killed you at the outside, one is the Dark Dwarf knight and one is the Roar Elf archer. Even they are used to entice you to be here, but I still despised you. You come to here so quickly, I barely have time to prepare every thing."
"You... You mean," I was a little confused, "these races are all split?"
"Of course."
"Fuck!"
The soldiers at the outside were trying their best to cut the vines, my brothers' anxious cries also came continuously.
"This is a senior nature class magic, the name is 'the Green Protection'. It's according to my will with the magic to stimulate the plants to grow in extreme speed. It can last for an hour." he explained to me, "with the years' experience for my using it, I can finish the chanting in advance, garnish with another nature magic to restrain the growth of the plants. It's same as just now, I just canceled the inhibiting magic after you came in here. So you couldn't hear my chanting."
"What about the thunder class you hit us earlier?"
"My thunder chanting is the best, with this, the Thor's Hammer." he took his both hands out from the wide cloak, his hands are holding two little hammers.
I took a look carefully, the two black hammers were almost exactly the same, they were the mini version of the war hammer.
"This is a powerful artifact." he waved the black hammers in his hands, "with this, I can use the magic without any chanting."
"Not bad! Is this all of your property?" I played the drums in my heart, I didn't thought of this sorcerer is so fierce, which guy said that the sorcerer close fighting ability is almost equal to zero?
"So far, I haven't..."
Have not waited for him to finish his talking, I kicked my foot which I stuck into the underground at him fiercely, it brought up a lot of dust between two of us to block his vision. From his talking, I knew who I met today were all very good sorcerer or fighter.
"Pa" a lightning bolt ripped on the ground where I just stood on, the dust splashed everywhere.
I kept changing the positions, sent out one and one wind blade magic, and hoped that could delay him some time.
"The elf in the woods, shake your white figure, diffuse around here, put on the bright eyes for me, block the enemy's vision for me." I was still in chanting, I felt that I had a numbness on my bottom, a flash of lightning was blasting under my feet! It's fortunately that my magic fog also diffused to come.
In a moment, the strong wind arose over here, the lightning accompanied by the thunder, the suffused dust became my savior. I was jumping around in the flying sand and stones.
"Let's play a game!" he didn't stop what he's doing, his words were more powerful, "the loser will lose everything."
After I jumped around several times, I found that there's something wrong, why the lightning split closer and closer to me! Often the body had a slightly numb, and then the white lightning was coming up next.
"Fuck!" I started to take off my black iron armor while I was running circle, I believed that I found out every time before the arrival of the lightning, that bastard would send out some very fine small lightning first, these small lightning would disappeared after they hit my armor in a flash. As a thunder class sorcerer, he might be to use this way to know my exact location.
The messy armor was pieces everywhere, this way, the small lightning could never find me again.
I crouched on the ground, slowly to put down the black iron knife, lightly to take off two daggers from my feet. The left one was Wilsa's father gave to me many years ago, the right one was the dwarf master attached to the knife.
"From now on," I spoke to myself and squat up slowly, "I must be careful."
"It's almost the time, let's finish the game. Don't think that you are safe even I can't find you." in the fog, Tario said, "I'm a thunder class sorcerer, I have very strong resistance to the thunder class magic! Watch my mass thunders magic!"
In a moment, the countless lightning split down from the sky strive to be the first, I just threw the black iron dagger at where Tario was speaking, the first lightning bolt had already split on the ground.
"Ah!" Tario made a sound out, he seemed to fell down on the ground. Bingo!
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!..." this was my voice, I was hit by countless lightning bolts, pain, numb, and rough... It's really painful in the neck. The problem was, there were so many lightning, they just couldn't split me to dead.
"Fuck...you..." the lightning were finally over, I laid on the ground so exhausted, I didn't even want to move a finger. Since when gotten beat became so physical?
"The spirit of the wind, come achieve your promise to me, blow the fog in front of my eyes, give my clear visi
on back..." this was Tario's voice.
The heavy fog was blown away, Tario came to me with a jump and a jump, unkempt appearance, the clothes turned into the beggar's outfit, and was hung on the body.
"Hey...Hey..." I had a hollow laugh, my whole body was so in pain like been cut by a knife.
Tario was scared to sit his bottom on the ground, "You ... You are still alive!"
"My good son! I still... not die yet..." I struggled to get up, but my body just had a move and fell down.
"Even I was harmed to this way by the lightning, you still haven't died unexpectedly..." Tario sat on the ground, he lifted the hammers expressionlessly, "I admire you!"
With the sound "Pa", a flash of lightning hit directly on my chest.
I was hit a flip by the lightning, I became face down when I fell on the ground.
Another lightning bolt hit my back, the pain made me too busy to count the numbers.
It finally stopped.
"Poof" I spitted out a big gush of blood, I even didn't have the strength to raise my head, even the eyelids all became so heavy, I had to use all my energy to keep them in this open condition, I did really want to fall into sleep like that.
"Hey hey..." Tario also seemed to have some not light wound, "Blood! Blood!"
I sided my head to see that he was climbing to me step by step, I couldn't help to think of that the vampire race people needs a lot of blood once after they use magic. Your mother's big apple, you are not climbing over to suck my blood?
Tario climbed to my side, he put his wounded leg well with his both hands, he licked his lips with his tongue.
"You lost," he pulled my collar, looked me in the eyes and said, "I am the winner, I should have the good treatment.
