Brando followed her gaze and almost threw the Thorn of Light with the sword and scabbard out without shaking his hand.
What kind of situation is this?
Among the rugged rocks at the bottom of the canyon, on one side were groups of bush-like monsters moving through them. They followed Kabuka, the corpse witch, climbing up the rock. It was like a black tide rising up. On the other side, in his field of vision,
A slender figure in the middle is trying to climb up the rugged mountain road. She is carrying a huge package on her back, and a sword is hung on the package. Together with her slender ponytail, she is rising and falling as the girl leaps forward on the stone wall.
.
Freya?
Brando rubbed his eyes, almost thinking that he had seen it wrong. But he would have seen it wrong, but Roman would not. The businesswoman looked nervous - that was Freya. But she should not have gone to the Dagger Beach with Madden.
Well, why are you here? Brando doesn't believe she would leave her third militia unit alone.
"It's Freya, Brando."
"I saw it, don't say anything, I will find a way!"
"Brando, Freya will be caught up. We have to help her, right?" The businesswoman turned around and asked eagerly.
"No, Roman. I don't need your help, I will find a way."
It's a pity that he doesn't even dare to be crazy now. This situation is very delicate, but the key to changing the situation is not in his hands, but whether Martha is in a good mood today. But unfortunately, it doesn't look good——
There were also dangers on the other side. Brando turned around and saw that the corpse witch removed his calf bone without hesitation and let the withered beast that grabbed it slide back into the monster group. Then the opponent turned over and used
A pair of bone hands supported the body and climbed up the rock. Its 1.7 energy level strength was enough to support a skeleton that was not too heavy to fly between the rugged rocks - it was just that Kabuka finally climbed up.
I took it, but was stunned for a moment.
Kabuka raised his head, and the green flames in his eyes reflected the frightened and angry face of the young human on the rock. At first, it felt that the ripples of life were somewhat familiar, but this did not matter to an undead, because
It has raised its bone staff and swung it at Brando.
The scum of mankind, it thought.
Brando finally couldn't care less at this time. He pulled out the sword with a choking sound, and the thorn of Zhanguang emitted a dazzling light in the darkness. He stabbed down and inserted into Kabuka's skull - there was a soft scratching sound.
There was a sound, and a golden flame shot out from the corpse witch's forehead with a crack, burning in all directions.
"Ka-" Half of Kabuka's voice was stuck in his throat. Brando's sword was so fast that he felt that his eternal life had come to an end before he had time to react.
It also thought that it would become a great corpse witch.
It fell back with all its strength, but the young man grabbed its bony hand. Kabuka was stunned for a moment, wondering why the other party wanted to save him. But it was an undead soul that would return to the Dragon of Disaster forever, how could he accept it?
A helping hand from a humble human being? Just as Kabuka was struggling, he saw the other party's hands and feet neatly pulling off the ring on the phalanx of his index finger.
"Damn! This human scum, robber..."
Three points of experience.
This was Kabuka's last thought, and the soul fire in its eyes immediately went out. But Brando was surprised that this corpse witch actually had a good ring - the Ring of Spider Web, +0.2 perception, familiar patterns, he
There was one before and I never lost it as a souvenir.
Perception is a symbol of a character's ability to feel the dimension he is in, and to improve his understanding of space and matter through hearing, smell, vision, touch and taste. This is a very important attribute in the game. At that time, there was a
In the low-level dungeon "Public Tomb", because open flames cannot be used in the dungeon, and the player team has to constantly avoid a set high-level monster in the intricate underground tunnels, equipment with high perception and high dexterity was once very popular.
This ring was given to Brando by a friend. It was really painful to think about it at the time. I almost lost everything in order to raise a set of 10oz sentience equipment, but in the end I still couldn't get through the "public tomb".
When he mentioned the 'Public Tomb', he suddenly remembered that there was a good thing for a warrior in that copy, a badge of courage and +2 level military swordsmanship. He slapped his forehead and almost forgot about it. He had disdained it for this badge back then.
Blood money.
"Brando, Brando!" Roman's voice was full of anxiety.
Brando was shocked. The business lady would not be in such a hurry. Could it be that something happened to Freya? He quickly threw away the skeleton in his hand and looked back, just in time to see a withered beast catching up from behind.
Freya was flying on the sharp rock. It stretched out its claws like dead branches to hook the strap of the girl's backpack, and then pulled her backwards.
"Freya, be careful!" Miss Merchant said 'ah'. She stood up and held up her skirt and wanted to run away. But Brando grabbed the girl who didn't understand the situation. Just kidding, how could you do it at this time?
Let her help you.
"Stay here obediently!" He threw the Spider Web Ring to Roman and asked her to keep it safe.
There are restrictions on a character's ability to equip magic items. From the witch's perspective, this is related to the source of a person's magic power, but for Brando, in short, a level 2 mercenary carrying equipment with a total of 40oz of power is already overwhelming.
"Okay, Brando, but..."
But Brando took a look around and found that he was not at ease leaving this reckless businesswoman here. As soon as he pulled out the Thorn of Light, the brilliance shone everywhere, and he had already become the target of public criticism. Now,
Leaving Roman here might also lead to an attack——
If little Roman was injured, he would definitely be blamed for his death. But Freya was also in danger. He had long regarded this persistent and kind-hearted girl as his most valuable companion.
How can you remain indifferent?
This is really a dilemma.
Of course, these thoughts passed through Brando's thoughts in an instant. Below the valley, Freya struggled to break away from the claws of the withered beast, struggled to run forward for two steps but fell down - she had already seen
The two of them were together, and there was a glimmer of hope in their panicked eyes.
"Brando——" Before she could finish her sentence, she was dragged back again.
"Draw the sword!" Brando shouted.
"It got tangled up in my backpack and I couldn't reach it—"
This idiot! Brando decisively handed the Thorn of Light to Roman: "This sword can restrain them, protect yourself!"
"What about you, Brando?"
The young man shook his head and told her not to worry, turned around and ran in the direction of Freya. Damn it, it wasn't the first time anyway, Lady Martha liked to joke with him, so just do it.
But just like in the game, monsters always like to find trouble for the weak first - before he jumped two levels, a humanoid shrub covered with thorns had already stopped in front of him.
The blight beast larvae is a level 7 monster with 2.2 levels of strength, 3 levels of constitution, 1.2 levels of dexterity, dark attribute, weakened fire, weakened slashing, and partially immune to puncture. Memories of the past appear on the cloth like running water.
In Lando's mind, one of the characteristics of plant-type monsters is their high constitution, but agility is often their weakness - not to mention that they are dark-type monsters, weak to fire, weak to slashing, and the Thorn of Light is simply their natural nemesis.
It's a pity that he didn't have it at hand. He couldn't help but gnashed his teeth in his heart and cursed the hellish situation. The only thing he could rely on now was the dexterity of level 2.1, and he didn't intend to get entangled with the opponent.
However, it seemed that the young wither beast did not agree with him. It had already made a rustling sound and pounced on it. Although the wither beast was in human form, it ran on all fours and looked like an uncivilized savage.
Same.
Brando turned sideways to avoid the opponent's claws, and the sharp thorns of the branches swept across his forehead, leaving a few blood marks - fortunately they were not undead, otherwise the rotten corpse poison in his body would have deepened further.
But before he had time to rejoice, a line of faint green text had already appeared on his retina:
"Emergency warning: Paralysis toxin invasion."
Go ahead! He actually forgot about this. Brando almost yelled. Because he used to be over level 20 and could basically bypass the area of the Blight Beast quietly. He suddenly forgot that the attack of this thing is poisonous, even though it is just
The most insignificant paralysis poison can be as overwhelming as the rotten corpse poison on the body.
However, he didn't dare to neglect the opponent at all. He pressed the opponent's thorny claws with both hands and pushed them forward. Then he targeted the dark red withered beast next to Freya and charged with it.
It turned out to be an adult.
He couldn't help but take a deep breath. The 4.7 energy levels of the adult Blight Beast even exceeded that of the Gargoyle. The first level of power was no joke. But it was a bit strange. Logically speaking, an adult Blight Beast was in
Freya should have been dragged away there long ago, right?
But no matter what, Brando flew out with the strength of the withered beast larvae, and then completed a turn in mid-air. When the charge was activated, the whole person suddenly accelerated across a set of intertwined sharp rocks, like a continuous line on the rock.
Dark shadow.
Tens of meters away in an instant——
"Loosen your backpack, Freya!"
But Freya hugged her backpack tightly and shook her head. She grabbed the sharp stone protruding from the side with one hand and almost couldn't support it. But Brando finally arrived first, "Lower your head." He shouted in a low voice.
He smoothly pulled out the long sword from Freya's back, and then cut off the backpack strap held by the adult blighted beast with one strike——
The dark red human-shaped bush immediately lost its center of gravity and fell backwards. It tried to grab something to stabilize its balance, but Brando had already kicked it in the chest, causing it to roll and fall into a deep rock crevice behind.
The Blight Beast is very light, so it will definitely not die if it falls like this, but it won't be able to find a way to get up for a while. Our protagonist breathed a sigh of relief after seeing this scene, but when he turned around, his tone became extremely harsh.
:
"You don't want your life!"
Freya raised her head and looked at him with bright eyes. She probably didn't expect him to be so angry. She pursed her lips and looked away stubbornly.
But Brando suddenly saw that her hand was bruised and covered in blood. He was startled and couldn't bear to curse anymore. Besides, the crisis was not over yet. He sighed and pulled her up and said, "I have a lot of things to do."
I’m asking you, but I’ll talk about it later. Roman is still waiting for us up there.”
"kindness."
Unfortunately, Brando was about to look back when he saw two points of golden light disappearing into his chest. With these two points of experience, he raised his head in great surprise - and saw Roman holding the skirt in one hand and the elf sword in the other.
After chasing it all the way down, the withered beast larva stopped in front of her - she carefully stabbed it through the heart with her sword, and then turned into a ball of ashes.
The business lady seemed to be stunned. She didn't expect the sword in her hand to be so powerful!
"Why are you down here too?" Brando suddenly had the urge to beat this guy up.
"But I thought about it seriously, Brando, and I don't think I can protect myself."
