Chapter 29: The Ascetic (Part 1)

Views:

Salin is different from other magicians. He cherishes the magic string exceptionally, and his mental power has always been full, and there is no shortage of it. Therefore, he worked hard to practice the control of magic. The ice ball suddenly stopped in the air. , exploded, and dozens of ice picks pierced into the bodies of the two assassins. www. QuanBeN-XiaoShuo. cO

These two assassins have already practiced sword energy, but the low temperature of the ice cone caused their blood to coagulate almost instantly. If the blood does not flow, people will not have any strength. Sikka next to Salin was extremely sharp, and her boomerang had already flown out of her hand. The one-foot-long boomerang hovered between the two assassins, and then cut off the heads of the two assassins.

Now Salin was completely relieved. Unless the two assassins practiced necromancy at the same time, they would no longer be a threat to him without their heads.

This time the attack was clean, but it still exposed the existence of the team, and the battle in front broke out instantly. Salin whispered to Sikka: "Go up and kill the other party's magician."

"What about you?" Sika was a little worried. In the Caucasus, the greatest honor for an excellent warrior like her was to protect the priest. Sika is a somewhat confused girl, but she takes the word glory very seriously. If she hadn't met Salin, there was a high chance that she would have been tricked into doing hard work by another mercenary group.

Salin's face turned green and tinged with blue under the illumination of fluorescence. He gritted his teeth and said, "Go quickly!"

Sikka didn't understand why Salin was angry. In her opinion, such a battle was not difficult. The swordsmen on both sides were close in strength, and there was a magician on her side, which was enough to affect the situation of the battle.

It's no wonder that Sikka didn't understand the impatience in Salin's heart. Salin looked calm on the surface, but in fact he regretted this expedition. The most regretful thing was killing the magician. In this team, he is the most well-read person and understands what it means to be an envoy of the Holy See.

On the surface, the status of the divine envoy is lower than that of the Pope, but the power of the divine envoy is definitely incomparable to the Pope. Now that something has been done, there is no going back. Salin wants to kill everyone who sees him and try to escape to the Qin Yin Empire before the divine envoy arrives.

For a first-level magician, there is no shame in escaping, especially when the enemy's power is comparable to that of a ninth-level magician. Salin's choice can be described as wise.

Sikka put the boomerang back into the holster on her waist, took off the huge stick on her back, and jumped out of the fog of confusion. Salin was startled. Wasn't this step too far

Shika felt a little aggrieved. She couldn't express her grievances to Salin, so she vented them all on the enemy.

The strong physique of Caucasians is inherently superior to ordinary swordsmen, and Shika is a warrior with heritage. Her huge club is made from the leg bones of an extinct monster, which is a hundred times harder than steel. She jumped out of the fog of confusion and hit a magician on the head with a stick.

With a pop, the head of the magician who was treating his companions was smashed to pieces by Sika's stick like a rotten watermelon, and the hot brains collapsed everywhere. The spear swordsman who was being treated by the magician was suddenly showered with these white flesh, and some of them even flew into his mouth and nose.

Before he could feel the nausea, Sikka's stick came to his head.

The defense of the spear swordsman is not lower than that of the shield swordsman. The problem is that Shika's club cannot be defended by the head. With this strike, the nauseating smell in the air suddenly became stronger. The swordsman became incontinent before his death, and the cave was filled with a strange smell, as if a carnivorous beast had passed by.

After killing the wounded, Sikka searched for another magician. The battle ahead was fierce. Lucas had already shot all the iron eagle feathers and was fighting hard with his triangle sword. He was facing heavy-armored swordsmen. Two heavy-armored swordsmen surrounded an archer. Even if Luka Si himself has also practiced close combat martial arts, so he cannot be a match for the heavily armored swordsman.

Sikka ignored him, because Sarah holding a soft sword was more dangerous. Sarah used a martial art passed down by the Qin Empire, which was much stronger in such small-scale battles than on the battlefield. If you don't take sword aura into consideration, Sarah is definitely the one with the strongest martial arts skills in this team.

Now Sarah was violently attacked by a short-haired middle-aged man. Her right hand, which had been treated by Salin, was injured again, and the leather armor on her body was soaked in blood.

The situation of Cang Hong and Pino was not much better. In the first round of sneak attacks, they killed a spear swordsman and two archers, and now they were facing a heavy armored swordsman. The bright red armor lost its former color and turned gray. There was a shocking scar on the chest, which almost cut the armor into two pieces.

The pale red armor looked flashy, but it was actually a magic armor. The heavy-armored swordsman wielded a heavy sword as wide as a door panel in his hand, fighting one against two and still gaining the upper hand. Cang Hong and Pino didn't even dare to touch the weapons of the heavily armored swordsmen, and they dodge with difficulty in the narrow cave.

The tip of the pale red soft whip has been cut off, and Pino's rapier has long been thrown away, but now he has a sword-edged gun that he picked up. Sikka glanced at the battlefield and noticed something was wrong. There were 11 opponents. Salin killed two and he killed two. There were three corpses on the ground, but there were four enemies on the battlefield.

Sikka did not find the second magician, so she went straight to the short-haired man fighting Sarah.

This short-haired man had an expressionless face and was wearing a simple linen suit. He looked like an ordinary civilian, with nothing special about his appearance. But his martial arts skills are so amazing that Sarah's rich combat experience is useless in front of him. A soft sword is like a dead snake, it no longer has the flexibility it once had.

"Be careful, he is an ascetic monk!" Cang Hong was slashed three times by the heavy-armored swordsman's sword, and he flew up in the air, not forgetting to remind Sikka. Xika was now the main fighting force, and only then did Cang Hong feel that the gold coins were not wasted.

What is an ascetic? Sika blinked, and the huge stick swept across, cutting off the short-haired man's path to attack Sarah.

The short-haired man's hands were a pair of metal gloves, which looked like the big hands used to construct the puppet. Sika's stick hit the big hands, and the loud sound made Sika feel dizzy.

For the first time, she lost to others in strength. In the village, even the strong men were not as strong as Shika. But this stick carrying huge kinetic energy was blocked by a pair of ordinary metal gloves.

The short-haired man had an expression of surprise on his face. This girl was so powerful. If it weren't for these gloves, I might have been defeated at once.

"Magic, come out." The short-haired man didn't care about Sika, but spoke to Salin in the fog of confusion.

Salin refused to go out. In the fog of confusion, his perception was extremely sharp. This was a battle, not a competition. Saleen knew that his skills might not be able to defeat this ascetic, and those gloves were probably high-level magic items. The ascetic monk didn't seem to care about the life or death of his companions. He decided to kill the rest first. As for the ascetic monk, it depended on his own luck.

Advanced magic props can only be used by professionals of at least level four. This ascetic's level was so much higher than his own that Salin even had the urge to turn around and run away. But Sika was in front, so he couldn't leave him alone.

Sika shook her hand that was numb from shock, looked solemn, and began to speak Caucasian. Salin can also speak Caucasian, but Sika's language obviously has a special regional accent, and he can't understand what Sika is saying at all. But Salin knew that Sikka was definitely not swearing. Her voice had a clear rhythm and a mysterious power.

As Shika chanted, patterns like scales appeared on the huge stick. The pattern was dark blue, and a faint light shot out from the gaps in the pattern. The stick suddenly came to life like aura.

The face of the ascetic monk became ugly and he shouted: "Heretic! Put down your evil weapons, go back with me, and obey the orders of the envoy of God."

"Sick!" Sika replied to the short-haired man in the common Chinese language of mainland China. He jumped up high, rounded the huge stick and smashed it down.

The source of Shika's weapon material is an ancient magical beast. She recites a spell that can only be used by Caucasus priests. In other words, Shika has been blessed by the highest-level priest. Ordinary Caucasian warriors will not use any spells at all. witchcraft.

This kind of ability is given by others and is difficult to upgrade, but it does not mean that this ability is not strong. There was a low roar in the wind caused by the stick activated by the spell. The ascetic monk felt that the weapon in the girl's hand suddenly turned into an ancient evil beast, and he swooped down in the air.

The ascetic monk was wary, bit the tip of his tongue, and sprayed a mouthful of blood on the metal gloves. Blood-red runes immediately appeared on the metal gloves. Salin kept staring at the battlefield and recognized them as divine runes.

Divine writing is not the writing of gods, but the writing of communication between believers and gods. Only truly devout believers will be granted divine inscriptions, which means that such people can obtain the abilities granted by the gods without going to the temple to pray.

An ascetic monk who knows divine writing! You can't let this guy go no matter what. Salin forgot his fear at this moment, or in other words, his fear had reached its peak. He accidentally ran into a plan of the Holy See. This plan was obviously not small, and it was personally presided over by a divine envoy. If he couldn't get rid of the God Envoy as soon as possible, he would die in the Chaotic Swamp without waiting for Count Sufonso's killers to come.

One of the seven people in the group has already died. I don’t know how many of my team can leave the Chaos Swamp alive. Salin began to recite incantations, trying to maximize the power of his secondary magic.

The second-level magic of the Salin Society is ice arrows. The power of ice arrows is more than ten times greater than that of ice picks. Whether it is speed, penetrating power or freezing power, it far exceeds that of ice picks.

Originally, Salin could cast the second-level magic twice, but his ice arrow failed to trigger and continued to consume the magic string, waiting for the most suitable opportunity to take action. This advanced method of casting not only has high requirements on magic strings, but also higher requirements on mental power. If a magician with low mental power does this, the ice arrow will explode directly in his hand, freezing the magician to death.
