Chapter 44: Block Tactics I don't want to be a meat shield!
So fast!
The moving speed of the black shadow has exceeded the upper limit of my visual reaction. I can't see clearly what kind of creature it is. As the black shadow continuously jumps left and right, I can only see the afterimages left behind during the height movement.
Danger!
The black shadow turned sharply and rushed towards us. The target was...Alice!
"Get away!"
Standing next to Alice, I kicked Alice to the edge of a boulder.
Although it has been more than two months since I left here, I know the terrain here very well.
There is a depression in the middle of this boulder. As long as you stand here, you will never have to worry about black shadows coming from behind at a speed that exceeds visual reaction.
Of course, the force used to kick Alice three meters away was a little bit strong, but the force was controlled very well and it would never hurt Alice, except for a little pain.
Well, I definitely did not avenge myself publicly. This is called a tactical choice!
After kicking Alice away, since I took Alice's place, the black shadow that lost its target locked its target on me and rushed towards me.
Huh, Alice is a magician and can't deal with such high-speed enemies, but I'm not afraid.
Since he was still in the air after kicking Alice away, he could not touch the ground to launch a roundhouse kick or other attacks.
But the bow in my hand was not pretty. Before I could draw an arrow and shoot, I grabbed the handle of the longbow and swung it towards the black shadow. I saw that the sharp blades at both ends of the bow were about to hit the black shadow.
I saw the black shadow leaping upward, and the bow with a sharp blade swept under the black shadow, and was dodged!
But it's not that I didn't make any achievements. Although the attack was dodged, the direction of the black shadow's action was also changed by me.
I quickly moved a few steps and blocked the depression in front of the boulder to prevent the black shadow from attacking Alice again.
Alice's soft singing came from behind, and then the white light unique to light magic lit up. Glancing out of the corner of his eye, it was Alice who held up the light magic shield.
I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After Alice set up the magic shield, she had the ability to protect herself. She was absolutely safe until the magic shield was broken.
All you have to do now is take care of yourself, but it's quite tricky at such a fast pace.
"What is this thing in front of me?" I asked softly, looking ahead.
Since I blocked the path to Alice, the black shadow could only jump back and forth in front of me.
But as long as you stay here, if the black shadow wants to attack here, it must attack from the front, so just look ahead.
"It seems to be a monster possessed by powerful resentment." Alice, who also answered me softly, had her hands full, and the light coming from the light magic behind her became brighter and brighter.
Hey, Alice isn't going to kill me and the monsters in front of me just because she hates my kick just now.
"Give me some time to prepare, you just need to hold it back." Seeing me feeling uneasy because of the getting brighter light behind me, Alice explained softly.
It's easy to say, but how can we hold it back at such a fast speed?
It seems that because the magic accumulated by Alice is getting stronger and stronger, the black shadow seems to be aware of the danger. The black shadow that is still circling makes a strange cry, turns in the direction and rushes towards me.
Already prepared, I locked my eyes on the approaching black figure and took out the giant arrow in my hand.
The arrow flew forward less than three meters before it was pulled apart by the thin wire whose length I had locked in advance. The mass inside the exploding arrow was stretched open by the force generated by the explosion, and it rushed toward the black shadow in front of it.
I saw the black shadow flashing from left to right, and the giant flew past the black shadow, but was dodged!
As the shadow approached, there was no time for a second shot.
And Alice was behind me, preparing magic. I couldn't avoid the shadow and use the terrain to maneuver around.
Damn it, fight it!
Step hard on the ground with your left foot, then use the toes of your left foot as the center of gravity, twist your body, accumulate all your strength on your right foot, and kick out with all your strength.
Explosive kick!
The right leg with a dull sound breaking through the air collided with the black shadow with a sad sound breaking through the air.
I only heard a "poof", and the huge force knocked me away. I quickly turned around in mid-air, inserted the sharp blade on the bow in my left hand into the ground, and used the force generated by the impact to return to the ground.
As the sole of the shoe rubbed against the ground, it almost retreated in front of Alice before the force of the impact was released.
He quickly took a few steps forward and returned to his previous position.
But the black shadow doesn't seem to be attacking for the time being.
Because it was even worse than me. After being kicked away by me, it floated on the surface of the river a few times and then fell into the middle of the river. It sank to the bottom and was temporarily invisible.
However, when the black shadow was floating on the water, I finally saw the true face of the black shadow clearly. It has a wolf head, a humanoid creature about one and a half meters tall, a werewolf?
Judging from the force of the impact just now, the power is not my opponent at all, except that the speed is very fast.
But with such a fast speed, he has no good way to attack the opponent.
I heard a bang, a large splash of water burst out from the middle of the river, and a black shadow suddenly jumped out of the water, then stepped on the water and rushed towards us.
You can float on water with Qinggong?!
I was about to repeat my old trick, and planned to kick the black shadow back to the center of the river again, when I saw the black shadow quickly dodge my kick, and a black shadow branched out and grabbed me.
What a bastard.
I just had time to raise the bow in front of me when I heard a "ding" sound. Not only were there three scratches on the handle of the bow, but there were also three wounds on my right shoulder, with black blood oozing out.
.
Damn it, it's actually poisonous.
I endured the numbness on my right side, and at the moment when the black shadow slowed down due to attacking me, I swept towards the black shadow with a "round kick".
Unfortunately, it seemed that due to being poisoned, his body was slower than normal, and the "round kick" was dodged by the black shadow as he accelerated.
"Alice, are you not ready yet?" I asked Alice, holding the bow in front of me with my left hand.
The entire right half of his body seemed to be out of control, and he was unable to draw the bow and arrow again. He could only hold the bow on guard to prevent the black shadow from attacking again.
"Judgment of Light!"
Alice's cooing voice was heard from behind, and a flash of light suddenly exploded next to the running black figure.
Alice, you bastard, you didn’t even say a word about setting off flash bombs!
Blinded by the bright light, I just covered my eyes and squatted down when I heard a piercing scream coming from the black shadow in front of me, and at the same time, there was a burning smell.
Rubbing his eyes, his eyes finally recovered from the bright light just now, and then he opened his eyes to look at Alice's victory.
Hey guys, not only is it a flash bomb, it also has a microwave heating effect?
