Cavill's eel robe saved his life. The greasy and thick fish skin hindered the cutting of the blade. In addition, the subconscious retreat of the body caused its hind paws to trip on the raised rock steps beside the pool, causing a staggering reaction of unbalanced center of gravity.
, to save it from being decapitated by a sudden attack.
But...it still hurts!
The burning pain in his chest made Cavell cry out in pain. He could feel air entering his body through methods other than his gills, which was extremely uncomfortable.
"Help me quickly!"
It subconsciously looked for help in the direction of its companions. Due to the vocalization, its voice sounded somewhat unclear and even weak on land.
However, the other two sahuagin priest companions still understood its meaning.
In sahuagin meaning, this tone of voice is equivalent to making an oath.
I swear by Secora's boundless hunger and endless hunting, any sahuagin who saves it will not only have one less opponent in this sacrificial election, but also have one more person with a war group to help them.
helper...
The two sahuagin priests who were hesitant at first glanced at each other at this moment. The bone scepter they held in their hands suddenly tightened, and their retreating steps stopped.
Especially Gusa, compared to Vidocq who was suddenly interrupted.
It had witnessed with its own eyes everything that had just happened.
From appearing to dodging the tentacles summoned by Cavill, to the sharp blade that seriously injured Cavill cutting through the rain curtain.
It clearly understood that the gillless species that suddenly appeared in front of it was different from the weak and feeble individuals it had encountered before. Just like there are many kinds of sharks in the sea, ranging from weak to only catching whitebait, with a body length of less than 30 meters
centimeters of dwarf shark, to a twenty-meter-long megalodon. It is said that the god it believes in is a vast and vibrant area of water that can be used for endless hunting.
A comparable ancient giant shark...
But human beings are still human beings after all, so how can they compare to the great god-given power that Secora gave it!
Gusa held the scepter that represented Sekora's will and used it to communicate and cast spells, and began to pray. He did not feel the slightest fear in his heart at this moment. After all, when Cavil made the oath, as a sahuagin's nature, it
Never allow yourself to watch your "wealth" being plundered by gillless species.
Sahuagin often fight against each other for the honor of Sekola. One of his teachings is that only the strongest and bravest sahuagin can be qualified to survive in the ocean, and among sahuagin
None of the relevant ocean legends say that sahuagin would give up what they own.
Cavill is the treasure he wants to own most at the moment, and it seems to be within easy reach now.
Just kill him!
Everything that happened in this short period of time turned into a simple thing in Gusa's mind.
Kill the gillless creature in front of you!
For the glory of Secora!
It began to prepare to choose a magical spell. In Gusa's view, Cavill chose the "Binding of Kraken" magical spell at the first time. It was really stupid, and his intelligence was probably about the same as that of Coral!
Kraken's Binding is generally used on large battlefields, where it will perform its best.
If it were it, the Curse of Drowning would be the most suitable to deal with this extremely agile gillless species.
Who is who knows.
In the past, when it plundered the group of gillless merchant ships at sea, it most liked to use this magical technique to deal with the group of enemies jumping up and down on the deck mast.
Every time it finished praying, it could see the originally arrogant target, clutching its own throat in pain as it whispered, struggling on the ground, and a stream of water that could be observed with the naked eye was flowing from his lungs.
, nasal cavity, and even overflowing from the eye sockets.
He didn't stop until his eyes were bulging, his limbs were stiff, his body was swollen, and he lost consciousness due to suffocation.
"You are dead! You will become the meat I swallow later!"
In order to prevent the gillless creature from further harming Cavell, and to give himself time to prepare his magic, Gusa shouted in a rather poor common language in an attempt to attract his hatred.
However, the human in the rain did not seem to hear its words and did not react at all. He just waved the sword in his hand with inertia and continued to slash at Cavil lying on the ground.
Ouch!
A flash of sword light floated in the rain curtain.
This was followed by another cry of pain. In order to avoid the attack coming towards his neck, Cavill was forced to use his left arm, which rarely used heavy weapons, to block the attack, but this time the damaged moray eel
The robe had long lost its protective effect, and the sleeves of the robe embroidered with Sekora's emblem were cut off diagonally at the elbow along with its left arm.
Gusa knew that it could not delay any longer. If it continued, Cavill's death would become inevitable. Naturally, it did not want its allies to return to the embrace of the Shark God.
Gusa swallowed a mouthful of air, pushed it into his swim bladder, and began to chant the magic spell with all his concentration. His eyes stared viciously at the gillless creature that was inflicting cruel and inhuman torture on his own kind over the pool.
"Glory to Sekora, including my blood, my soul...the most feared nightmare of all sea creatures, the fear in the depths of the sea, Sekora's ruthless gaze, please listen to my call..."
The syllables of the sahuagin language were so short that when they finished describing the first half of the ritual, the human had no time to swing the third sword, and the whole world seemed to be filled with the sound of heavy rain falling from the gloomy and dark sky.
However, he seemed to be aware of its prayer, and he was watching it here just now, but what's the use? It's so far away, it's already too late to stop it! What's more, it's not like Cavill, who will be stupid.
He stood there and let him hit him.
"This stupid human has no idea what he's going to face next!"
It was thinking as it read, as if it had seen the expressionless face distorted by the curse of drowning.
However, the next moment, the ferocious smile still hanging on its face was sprayed by a huge momentum that came from nowhere. With a huge sense of imbalance, its entire upper body leaned back and prayed.
It also stopped abruptly.
Gusa was completely stunned.
The air was suddenly so heavy that it felt as if the rain was mixed with a dizzying noise, as if a wounded whale was surrounded by the sounds of a hundred bloodthirsty sharks.
What is this? What's going on?
Why did I fall?
The sudden impact interrupted all Gusa's plans. It was now like a beached shark. For a while, it could do nothing except wagging its tail.
Fortunately, when the sound of sharp blades piercing bones came through the rain curtain along with screams, Gusa managed to muster the strength to stagger up from the ground, and the fish tail regained its balance. However, when it stood up again, it
I saw Cavill's head with dead gray eyeballs lying peacefully not far to its right.
The fins that Cavell was usually proud of were all in pieces, as if they had been cut off by a sharp blade, and half of them were cut off. The beautiful and carefully maintained scales under the head had become even more obscure, and there were still cracks in the gaps.
The bright red blood stains gradually faded under the wash of rain.
Cavill is dead! His head was severed.
Anger surged like an undercurrent in Gusa's heart, but his instinct reminded him to return to the sea immediately and escape to the incomparable safety of the waves.
When its eyes looked up again at the rain curtain wrapped in darkness, there was another blade of light that cut through the rain curtain. For a moment, it didn't know whether to block or hide.
The sudden impact just now made its brain still in a state of absent-mindedness. It was not until the pain spread upward from its neck that it and Cavell's head lay on the muddy ground and stared at each other. Only then did it want to regret and scream miserably.
It screamed, its upper and lower jaws moved silently, because there was no water, the sound it made was thin and weak, before its consciousness disappeared.
Gusa thought a lot in his mind and noticed many things he had never noticed before.
For example, it was only then that it noticed that the eyes of this gillless species were different from those of other gillless species.
It was an unsettling yellow, like those strange fish in the deep sea that use lights to lure schools of fish.
It turns out that they are the prey from beginning to end...
This was the last self-deprecating sentence in the mind of this sahuagin priest.
…
A row of data appears.
"The hunting pace starts!"
"Evasion successful!"
"Successfully launched a shadow ambush, causing 27 (+5) points of crippling damage to the target!"
"The target enters a bleeding state...the target is disabled...the target is seriously injured..."
…
"The target has died and gained 461 experience points."
…
"Start the beheading!"
"Beheading successful!"
"Cause 35 (+9) critical attack points to the target!"
"The target has died and gained 610 experience points."
…
Spellcasters are sometimes easier to kill than summons.
Of course, the process was extremely dangerous. If he hadn't been promoted to level five and became a second-level demon hunter, no matter how courageous he was, he would not have dared to attack the three sahuagin priests rashly.
It's just a simple water flow magic, it's fine, you can dodge it or resist it.
But if it's some terrible ocean curse, it's going to be very troublesome.
There are several common curses for sahuagin priests.
The "Curse of Secora", which causes water to flow from the mouth and nose, causing drowning, the "Salty Water Curse", which extracts and drains moisture from living creatures, and the "Malicious Transformation Curse", which randomly transforms people into weak creatures in the sea, no matter what
Which one makes people shudder just thinking about it.
You know, if he had been a little late just now, he might have faced a strong counterattack from this group of priests. If nothing else, just the malicious gaze just now made him frightened.
If it hadn't relied on the seal to interrupt the sahuagin's spellcasting, who knows what kind of weird magic it would have used to torture itself.
But it's all over now. I look at the two sahuagin corpses and the back of the last sahuagin priest who ran away and disappeared in the rain.
Woody clenched the curved sword in his hand and chased after him quickly.
After killing two sahuagin priests in a row, plus the sahuagin warriors he had killed earlier, the bloody smell on his body was still lingering even under the cover of the heavy rain.
But at this time, it was no longer necessary to continue hiding and waiting for sneak attacks. What he had to do was to send the most sincere greetings from mankind to this "fish that slipped through the net" that had escaped.
"We've already come! Why rush to leave?"
He walked quickly along the road in the noble district, and it didn't take much time to catch up with the sahuagin priest. Their speed on land was far not as smooth as in the water, but what Woody didn't expect was that,
I don’t know if this sahuagin priest was too stupid or had another agenda. The direction he ran away was not the cliff near the ocean, but the direction of the winery.
He had some doubts in his heart, but he still found the right moment, ready to step forward quickly and finish with a hunting pace and a heavy blow from the curved sword.
Of course, while attacking, he was also always ready to dodge possible magical spells or sudden ambush.
However, before he could charge, Woody immediately stopped his desire to draw a knife.
Because he saw the sahuagin priest, as if seeing a savior, he rushed into a large group of forty or fifty sahuagins. At this time, there were still people on the high wall of the winery.
There are scenes of many sahuagin jumping off the wall like dumplings.
what's the situation?
Seeing the priest integrating into the sahuagin group, Woody was immediately dumbfounded.
Not knowing the situation, he subconsciously thought that the manor had been breached, but the faint noises and cheers from the manor amidst the sound of rain made him dispel this doubt.
So this is a retreat?
This idea came to Woody's mind. Although he was a little happy, he was also a little unwilling.
After all, that pastor, he almost did it...
He lingered on the periphery, not daring to get close. Now he had not yet recklessly rushed into a sahuagin war group that was close to the Centurion to find trouble for the priest inside.
However, he never gave up, and since the manor was safe, there was no need for him. He could just take this opportunity to see if he could find any clues about the person behind the scenes.
Woody quickly decided to switch from killing to stalking, and the sahuagin priest seemed to know that he was following him. He first sent a small group of sahuagin warriors to harass them, but he killed two groups after that.
It learned the lesson and changed its approach. It tried to come to him with hundreds of sahuagins, but he cleverly avoided them. If they wanted to chase him, he even took the initiative to lead them to the nobles.
Go in circles.
Soon, the last priest hidden among the sahuagin crowd seemed to know that if this situation continued, they would only suffer.
Moreover, the heavy rains are already showing signs of stopping. The current rainfall has passed its peak and is now on a downward trend.
It finally gave up its plan to avenge the other two priest companions, and led the sahuagin battle group, which suffered more than half of its casualties, back to the ocean where it was full of security.
Unfortunately, Woody did not notice any traces of others watching nearby along the way, but instead he seized the opportunity and killed several lone sahuagin warriors.
And until he reached the cliff, Woody still didn't find a suitable opportunity to kill. However, when he reached the cliff in the noble area, he finally saw how the sahuagin climbed the cliff that was difficult for humans to climb.
Looking at the water that almost reached the top of the cliff and submerged into the noble area, he patted his head and almost forgot about controlling the water level.
Directly relying on the power of the waves, the sahuagin can be brought ashore one after another.
But just when Woody was about to watch the group of sahuagin return to the sea with his own eyes, he felt a familiar aura lingering towards the area due to his keen sense.
And the location of that breath is under the sea water.
A name suddenly popped up in Woody's mind, it was the young monk girl who said she was going to the Underdark Zone not long ago.
