No one knows when the assassins appeared.
Even Sauron didn't realize this. The strength of the enemy was a bit beyond his estimation. It wasn't until the moment before the enemy stabbed him that Sauron realized that someone was attacking him. The powerful dodging ability and amazing physical fitness made him want to avoid the sneak attack from behind, but it was too late because he didn't have the specialty of [Intuitive Dodge]. The moment he was about to dodge, the enemy had already hit him. his back.
The tip of the knife pierced his back, and it was impossible to dodge!
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Sauron's mind, but in the end, the will to survive dominated his body. When the enemy stabbed his back, he instantly activated the stone skin technique, but the tip of the knife still pierced through the muscle layer Stabbing towards the heart, Sauron could only activate [Slayer Transformation] at the same time at that moment. Then the next moment his body began to undergo astonishing changes, the galloping heartbeat squeezed the blood, and in less than a millisecond, his physical fitness improved a lot, and then he entered the [Son of Slaughter] form.
The tip of the knife pierced the heart.
Sauron's whole body froze, the feeling of being pierced in the heart was so painful, it also dissipated part of his strength to continue. However, the ability attached to transforming into the Son of Slaughter has been activated, and Sauron seems to be assassinated by a legendary assassin, because only legendary assassins can approach Sauron without anyone noticing. But as an assassin, the enemy's strength doesn't seem to be high. It should have pierced Sauron's heart and protruded from his chest. After stabbing the heart, it got stuck.
Exhausted strength!
Sauron's muscle layer clamped the opponent, and when the enemy was about to twist the knife backhand to smash his heart, Sauron, who had been stabbed in the heart and should be almost dying, had a cold light in his palm, and then the legendary scimitar ice Death appeared in the palm of his hand, and directly slashed towards the opponent's throat. This attack, which seemed to be a dying counterattack, was quite ferocious. It obviously made the legendary assassin who assassinated Sauron hesitate. In his heart, Sauron was almost a deadly target, so he was definitely unwilling to die with Sauron.
So the opponent took three steps back, and while drawing out the dagger, he also dodged Sauron's attack!
"Tsk tsk!"
The assassin let out a mocking exclamation. He looked inconspicuous from the outside, like an ordinary sailor, but Sauron knew that this was not the real face of the opponent, and in front of him was an assassin who was proficient in disguise. This is a partial type of basic skill. Compared with the camouflage that can be dispelled by magic, this kind of camouflage that relies on craftsmanship is more subtle.
The legendary assassin stared at Sauron in front of him, stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, and said, "You still survived after being stabbed in the heart! You guy's vitality is really tenacious! No wonder that person is willing to pay me a lot of money! But , How long can you last with such an injury?"
The other party's eyes were cold, full of killing intent, and they were also looking for Sauron's flaws.
Because the transformation of the killer made him feel a little dangerous!
Sauron's pupils turned blood red, and there were streams of blood overflowing from his back, but the controlling muscles temporarily sealed the hemorrhage, and Sauron would not die due to excessive blood loss in a short time. Now he seems to be the Gnoll hunter who was successfully assassinated by him back then. Sauron also stabbed the opponent's heart back then, but because the opponent's vitality was too tenacious and his physique exceeded 20 points, he didn't die directly. It took a long time before he lost too much blood and died.
A row of blood-red data emerged:
"being attacked!"
"You were assassinated by the enemy's backstab!... You received 126 points of piercing damage!... You received 21 points of shadow damage!... You were hit by the enemy in the heart!... Triggered the death saving throw test!... You successfully passed the death saving save test!... You are seriously injured!... You are bleeding profusely!... Your remaining vitality will be drained quickly!... "
…
…
A backstab.
Even Sauron's extraordinary physique of 22 points, plus the 2-point constitution bonus of the Slayer's transformation, and the protective effect of the stone skin technique still failed to reduce the enemy's damage much. This knife directly put him in a serious injury state. Even if he temporarily passed the death immunity judgment, being hit in the heart means that he will soon enter a near-death state and eventually die directly!
"You can't die here!"
This was the only thought in Sauron's mind, and then the will that he had been training all this time began to play a role. Sauron suppressed the pain in his body and also suppressed the fear of death. I found a glimmer of life for myself, and at the same time found a chance to counterattack my opponent.
Ocean Temple!
As long as he can escape to the Ocean God Temple, the Naga priests can heal his injuries. Although this kind of fatal injury is very scary, it only takes one recovery spell to bring Sauron back from the gate of hell. The heart injury was completely healed, and the bleeding damage was nothing at all. As long as Sauron escaped to the Ocean Temple, he would not die even if the heart was destroyed, because the high-level restoration technique could even regenerate the heart. Now Priest Naga will definitely not sit back and watch him die. The two sides are currently on the same front. If there is no Sauron as the knife in her hand, Priest Naga will be helpless in the end, and life will definitely not be better than it is now.
escape!
Must flee from there.
Only a high-level priest can heal his fatal wounds!
But where is the chance to escape? How could the enemy in front of him let him escape? I have suffered such a serious injury! The chances of trying to escape from the opponent are quite low! Not to mention that there is still a long way to go from the Ocean Temple!
— "Fear! [Instant]"
— "Summon Shadow!"
— "Hide your gaze!"
— "Shadow Shuttle!"
Sauron activated several abilities in an instant, first was an instant fear spell brought by a weak divinity, then summoned a shadow to appear, and then he escaped into the shadow with his whole body. But this time Sauron was not trying to fight back against the enemy, but to escape and avoid the enemy's attack. His figure appeared from a shadow in the distance, and then instantly poured a bottle of expensive healing potion and fled towards the Ocean Temple.
Naga priests presented high-level healing potions, which can temporarily prolong Sauron's death time!
