"Seventy-four rangers?" Everyone looked at each other and could see surprise in everyone's eyes. Of course, it was just surprise. There was no look of fear or worry at all.
Ke'er stood up first and walked to the window, squinted her eyes and looked carefully, nodded and said: "Yes, seventy-four!" After saying that, she left the window and said with a smile: "
Haha, it seems that our poet’s reconnaissance skills are not low!”
Yun raised her head and nodded slightly, which was a response to Ke'er's praise. Speaking of which, this indifferent elf poet has changed a lot from the shore of Star Lake to now.
"Seventy-four? How many people did they come?" Xiao Fen thought for a while and then asked in a low voice.
"I don't know, but judging from the camp they set up, there are at least four teams... Well, I mean, if each team is larger in number than the team we met last time on Burning Mist Peak,
There are at least 200 people!" Half Apple answered as he rolled up the map and scroll on the ground and put away the thieves' tools scattered aside.
"No, it's more than that." Xiao Fen shook his head. "You can tell from their ranger configuration. The Bloody Slayer is not a guild rich in rangers. For such a mission, their number of rangers will not account for the entire team.
1/3 of them. If I guess correctly, they dispatched at least 400 people!"
"More than 100 people per team?" Everyone looked at each other, and then said doubtfully: "No, there are more than 100 people per team... Will the war horn allow them to pass smoothly? They should have been noticed a long time ago, don't forget to
This north is a world filled with war horns!"
Xiao Fen smiled slightly, raised a slender finger and shook it, "No, there is only one way to enter the area controlled by War Horn, and that is to turn east from the Ruiscat Mountain Forest, pass through the town of Duimu, and then arrive here...
In fact, this is the road we took; however, in addition to this road, there are two other roads connecting the Togras Mountain Trail and the Big Valley in the Quiet Lake area to the east to get here, do you understand?"
The little girl nodded in understanding, held her cheeks with her little armored hands, and muttered: "What Brother Palin means is that they come from the Jinghu area in the middle of Oras... Listen..."
The scenery of Jinghu Lake is very beautiful. After I finish the task of 'Atonement', I must go there to see it!"
Hearing what she said, everyone couldn't help but feel angry and amused. They thought that this little girl's thinking was too divergent. She could quickly associate travel with her enemies.
Wrought Iron, who had been leaning against the wild rock without speaking, knocked on his ax at this time and muttered roughly: "No matter how many there are, how they come, or where they come from! I can still beat them away.
!A bunch of little bastards!”
Half Apple glanced at him and said jokingly: "Stumper, has anyone ever told you that you talk like a dwarf? Well, what I said is true!"
Wrought Iron patted his armor and said proudly: "Damn it! Don't call me Stumper, I have said it many times... Besides, I am a dwarf, well, I am still the best warrior!"
Everyone smiled knowingly.
Xiao Fen adjusted his robe, then leaned against the window and looked out of the room with his face sideways. He stood in the corner, his whole body shrouded in the shadow of the room, only half of his face reflected the starlight coming in from the window.
, seems extremely weird.
"Seven people are coming this way. They searched quite thoroughly..." Xiao Fen turned his head and waved to another corner of the room. "Go there, yes, that corner! They seem to be searching the inside of the building.
!”
…………
The ruins of the building where Xiao Fen and others were hiding were the largest of all the nearby ruins, and were obviously the easiest to attract the attention of the Bloody Slayer Rangers. They first came to the ruins and then searched carefully.
Although the gap connecting the interior of the building is relatively difficult to detect, it is only relatively so. After careful search, they quickly discovered this gap that could only allow one person to pass through.
The leading ranger looked at the crack carefully and nodded, with a sharp light in his eyes. He waved to the team members behind him, and two rangers immediately came up. The first ranger fastened his bow first, and then
He drew out a long sword and cautiously walked towards the crack; the second ranger decisively swallowed a bottle of invisibility potion, drew out his short sword and followed closely behind him.
In the building, at the end of the dark corridor, Half Apple quickly retracted his head and whispered to everyone: "They are coming in, be careful, they are quite professional players!"
Xiao Fen did not dare to waste time, and immediately took out the devil's parchment and cast a ten-foot invisibility spell, and then whispered: "Pay attention to controlling your breathing. The ranger's listening and detection skills are no joke!" (Spell
The effect is explained at the end of the article.)
When the little girl heard what Xiao Fen said, she subconsciously glanced at Ke'er. Probably in her heart, her sister Ke'er was the most powerful ranger. Apart from being a little afraid of snakes - of course, in the girl's mind, being afraid of snakes was no big deal.
of.
The rangers soon arrived at the room where Xiao Fen and others were hiding. The leader first pushed open the rusted iron-clad wooden door. He put the knife in front of him, glanced at the room cautiously, and then turned his head.
Listen carefully.
At this time, everyone in Shining Gold Coin held their breath. Of course, they were not afraid of these few rangers. Xiao Fen alone was confident that he could deal with them in an instant before they took action. But after that, the fun would be over.
Big.
The air flow in the room seemed to have solidified. The ranger just tilted his head quietly, with a solemn expression on his face; Xiao Fen, who was invisible, carefully turned his head and turned his gaze in the direction of the peaceful snow...
...It’s nothing if you don’t look at it. I almost scared my soul out of my mind when I saw it. At this moment, a snake slowly circled her feet in the quiet snow and swam towards Ke’er. Of course, this
Our female ranger didn't notice this at the time.
The quiet Xue noticed Xiao Fen's gaze and immediately showed a pleading look asking him to find a way. Although the snake was right at her feet, she did not dare to move at all. The priest's metal chain armor made a rattling sound when it moved.
"Holy crap! Isn't it such a coincidence!" Xiao Fen cursed secretly, turning several spells in his mind. There were spells that could stop the snake, but either the movements were too big, or they couldn't be cast silently...
Finally, the snake slowly swam through the quiet snow and came close to Ke'er's hand hanging on the ground. Ke'er subconsciously frowned and lowered her head...
"Don't scream!" Xiao Fen yelled in his heart.

Luskai stood facing the night wind, the biting mountain wind blowing his long fiery red hair. He unfurled his frowning thick eyebrows, raised his big hand, separated his fingers and inserted them into his hair, sweeping them back.
.
"What? Are you still thinking about those guys you saw that day?" Teyi asked absently, sitting next to him, playing with the dagger in his hand.
"A very interesting group of people, but unfortunately, we are already enemies!" Luskai said coldly.
"Use opponent, please use the word opponent... Please, this is a game, boss!" Te Yi said with a smile.
"That makes no difference to me!"
"Wrong, there is no such title as enemy in the game. Today they may be our opponents, maybe tomorrow they may be our friends. To be honest, I admire them very much. They have done a very good job, just like what is required in the Thief's Manual...
…When you get the chance, put your opponent to bed!”
"I'm not a thief." Luskai replied.
"You are not a paladin, my wise and mighty boss, okay?"
Luskai was too lazy to argue with him. He just turned his head and glanced at the arcane spoiler circle behind him. After the blood-weeping Simana rose, the spoiler circle had become significantly thinner. It seemed that his inference was not correct.
Wrong, as long as the Dark Shimana rises into the sky, they can carry out the final mission.
At this time, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and reached out to take a white homing pigeon. He knew that this was a routine report from the rangers ahead.
"Nothing unusual!" Four words were written concisely on the note.
"Is there nothing abnormal?" He pondered for a moment. "Where did the guy with the shining gold coin go? Did they already go in first?"
…………
The ranger has been gone for a while, and everyone has relaxed. Everyone looks at Cole with eyes that contain praise, encouragement and excitement - although the latter's face is as white as a piece of paper, and her eyes are slightly
A little sluggish, his mouth opened slightly, breathing lightly.
"Sister Keer, you are so awesome!" The little girl's eyes were full of stars.
Ke'er smiled palely and nodded a little stiffly.
"Our pride!" Xiao Fen was slightly excited. He looked at the blood marks on Ke'er's lower lip, which were bitten... But even so, she still didn't make a sound. This face was like a snake's.
The girl who was afraid of being like that was really touching when she faced the snake, but she thought of everyone and didn't scream.
Quiet Xue smiled slightly and nodded to Ke'er, and then everyone nodded along. This was a kind of trust and a kind of gratitude.
"Thank you everyone...haha." Ke'er said with a forced smile.
"We should be the ones thanking you... However, defeating yourself is indeed worthy of celebration, although it is not the time to celebrate yet!" Half of the apple was still leaning against the window. "The black moon is coming up, oh... Oh...
The magic spoiler circle has disappeared, what a wonderful sight!" He put his feet up and patted the window lattice, sighing in a low voice, his dark eyes sparkling in the starlight.
Xiao Fen put the scroll box on the hook at his waist, and then patted it gently, "Okay, everyone, get ready, it's time for us to set off... Since there are so many people from the Bloody Slayer, let them prepare for it first.
Let’s clear the way!”
As he spoke, he blessed each person with three spells: energy damage triggering, arrow protection, and detection avoidance. Then he used the triggering spell to fix a spell on himself that would activate advanced mage armor once he was stabbed in the back.
, and finally affix a false life to yourself as always, and all preparations are completed. (See the explanation at the end of the article for the effect of the spell.)
"Be sure to buy some diamond dust next time. It would be too painful without Stone Skin!" Xiao Fen thought as he cast the spell.
…………
On the other side, a few minutes ago, the camp of the bloody massacre——
In fact, calling this place the camp of the Bloody Slayers at this time is a bit untrue, because they have already dismantled their tents early, extinguished the bonfires, quickly set up accurate formations, and quietly waited for the arcane spoilers.
The disappearance of the circle.
No one was making any noise. Under the four hundred and thirty-three red cloaks was the same firm belief. Just as the shining gold coins were determined to win this treasure, the Bloody Slayers also believed the same.
The Dark Simana slowly rose, and then the arcane spoiler circle suddenly erupted with dazzling bright light. Everyone unconsciously squinted their eyes, waiting for the moment when the bright light dissipated...
