Chapter 42 Kill!
…
「Reminder: You encountered Warlock Edson (LV15) and 33 Kobolds!」
…
Almost at the first moment when the two sides met.
Matthew shouted loudly:
"Ella!"
Miss Owl, who was doing the enlightenment ceremony for the oak forest, heard Matthew's call, and flapped her wings without saying a word and flew towards the southwest of the forest.
There is exactly where Matthew and Brad agreed to set up a new guard post.
See Ella leaving safely to report.
Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.
It was too late to change into his robes, so he quickly took out the Psalm of Defense and held it with his left hand, while with his right hand, he quickly put the coughing staff and dead wood staff in his waist for easy access at any time.
Eli's reaction was even more extreme.
But seeing him glaring, he jumped forward on all fours, and his whole body swelled up. With a roar of "Roar", a tall and mighty saber-toothed tiger appeared on the wasteland under the moonlit night.
He actually rushed straight towards the enemy group!
"superior!"
Encounters are always unexpected, but Edson's reaction is not inferior. He shook off the cloak behind his back, and took a huge mace from his back with his backhand.
The mace exudes a dark red evil luster.
At his command.
Kobolds swarmed out.
They rushed towards Eli with small wooden sticks and small bucklers in a hurry.
Matthew keenly noticed that some kobolds were still holding some wooden boxes in their hands, and compared with normal kobolds, their eyeballs were more prominent, the whites of their eyes were bloodshot, vaguely similar to the mace in Edson's hand Similar spooky sheen.
"Roar!"
Eli heroically charged into the crowd of kobolds.
His size is completely crushing for these small and medium-sized creatures.
Only one meeting.
The saber-toothed tiger pounced, thrust its fangs, and swept its tail.
Immediately, three or four kobolds died unexpectedly!
However, it is unexpected.
The kobolds, notoriously prone to fleeing battles when morale is low, displayed unreasonable bravery.
The tragic death of their companions did not make them fearful, but continued to surround them fearlessly.
Eli's strength is strong, so naturally he won't be hurt by the kobolds, but there are too many kobolds. With the blessing of courage, even the ferocious saber-toothed tiger needs to circle around, and it is difficult to push them head-on.
After a few seconds.
Edson himself joined the battle along with the kobolds.
But I saw him waving a huge mace while calling out something loudly.
The sorcerer's spells were complicated and obscure, and he recited them quickly and vaguely. Matthew didn't even have a chance to interrupt with a coughing wand, and Edson had already finished the spell-casting phase.
Matthew could only vaguely determine that Edson used three spells in total during the walk—
The first spell is Familiar Summon!
But seeing a puff of black smoke rising under the moon, a hyena-like demon with spiked barbs on its tail quietly appeared.
…
"Susuwa Demon Dog (Elite/LV10): Creation of the Abyss, mid-level demon, usually accompanied by elite gnolls"
…
Just when the message of this summoned object appeared in front of Matthew.
He also fulfilled his calling.
The light of the undead contract gradually dimmed.
A tiptoe-like tauren skeleton appeared in front of Matthew.
"Gee, I'm having fun listening, Matthew!"
Peggy complained, and immediately saw the situation in front of her, she pulled out her own bone blade:
"Cut who?"
Matthew pointed to the Susuwa magic dog that was running towards him.
Peggy immediately went up to meet her, and fought with the magic dog.
And the other side.
Because of Eli's reckless advance, his position was faintly held back by the kobolds. Just as Matthew commanded the Silver Moon Zombie to reinforce, the wizard Edson brandished a mace and killed the saber-toothed tiger.
this moment.
Matthew also discerned that the second spell that Edson cast should be a power infusion or physical strengthening spell to pray to the suzerain.
Because he saw Edson's body begin to skyrocket at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Thorn it!
The hair like black thorns screamed and tore the warlock's robe.
Accompanied by the skyrocketing size.
Warlock Edson also revealed his hideous face—
The illusion of human appearance is self-defeating, and what is exposed in the moonlight is a giant jackal with a height of two meters and full of abnormally bulging muscles!
"die!"
The huge Gnoll smashed the saber-toothed tiger's waist with a mace.
Eli didn't get out of the way completely, and after taking a bite from the side, he screamed out in pain!
The kobolds became even more angry when they saw this.
Although at this time the Silvermoon Zombies had arrived nearby to support Eli.
But Eli, who was being targeted by Edson, still looked embarrassed.
The latter did not expect that this magician actually possessed the terrifying melee ability of an ogre!
I saw Edson constantly waving a mace.
Eli's position was constantly squeezed.
Without any choice.
Eli could only throw two buff spells to himself in a hurry.
Then prepare to wait for an opportunity to leave the battle.
Matthew is also preparing to support Eli.
He took out the dead wood staff and pointed it at Edson's back from a distance.
At this moment, the magician seemed to be silently chasing Eli, indifferent to what happened behind him.
All signs show that now is the best time to cast a sneak attack.
Matthew clenched his deadwood staff tightly, and he was indeed preparing to release the strongest single-target spell he could cast—"Potent Depletion Ray".
may come to a critical moment.
He suddenly remembered the third spell that Edson chanted!
"I'm a mage, there's no reason for him to ignore me from the beginning, and the "combat spell recognition" just now is no problem, it's indeed three spells, the enemy can't just aim at nothing! "
So what exactly is the third spell?
Matthew stared at Edson's back that was glowing red, and chanted a spell quickly.
One second later.
Bursts of cold air erupted from the tip of the withered wood staff.
Immediately after.
A mass of white air-conditioning about one meter shrouded Edson's body.
Whoosh!
Edson's body flashed red.
The white mist disappeared instantly.
Matthew felt a sharp pain in the palm of the hand holding the staff!
A slight nausea quickly flooded my heart.
…
「Reminder: You used the 0-level trick "Frost Fog" on Warlock Edson!
You have been hit by Edson's "Counterspell (magic contract enhancement!
…
伱's "Frost Fog" is invalid, and you will suffer the penalty of being counterspelled:
Within 12 minutes, you cannot cast any spell of the same level as "Frost Fog";
Your Concentration -0.5 (for 18 seconds)」
…
「Reminder: You have successfully identified and used a 0-level trick to break the enemy’s "countermagic", and you will soon have the opportunity to explore the elements of the "combat" field."
…
"Sure enough, it's against the law!"
"And it's a counterspell that has been strengthened by the suzerain he believes in!"
Matthew secretly thanked himself for noticing something was wrong.
If the spell he just cast was a second-level spell, the punishment he would have to bear might make him go to heaven!
Since Matthew crossed over, he has hardly fought serious spellcasters, and this is the first time that the magician Edson in front of him.
Actual combat is really different from theory. If Matthew hadn't been cautious enough, this sinister counterspell would definitely make him overwhelmed.
And this long-planned counterspell also made Matthew realize that Edson's goal from the beginning was himself!
as expected.
After sensing that Matthew had suffered the punishment of the law.
Edson turned sharply.
He wielded a mace and quickly launched a surprise attack in the direction of Matthew.
And those kobolds run faster.
A small part of them jumped over the Silvermoon Zombie and rushed towards Matthew.
The rest is to wrestle with the zombies.
Seeing this, Eli hurriedly prepared to return for help.
But there was already some distance between the two sides at this time, and he could barely catch up to some kobolds who were lagging behind.
"Hisss!"
Even the Susuwa Demon Dog, who had been fighting fiercely with Peggy, took a chance to shake Peggy away.
As soon as this cunning demon accelerated, it wanted to besiege Matthew from the other side.
crucial moment.
Peggy took a sudden step forward, and threw a bone blade with anticipation fiercely towards the void in front of her!
Poof!
The bone blade that came out of his hand easily tore the magic dog's forehead.
The demon immediately twitched and collapsed to the ground.
Brain and blood mixed together and poured out along the gap cleaved by the bone blade.
I can't take care of dealing with the magic dog.
Peggy pulled out the bone blade and came back to protect Matthew:
"Don't be afraid, with me here, no one can hurt you!"
The soul fire in her skull was burning.
The golden bones also gradually settled into a more noble dark gold under the moonlight.
A gratified smile flashed across Matthew's face.
But his attention was still focused on the Gnoll Warlock who was rushing towards him.
next moment.
He held the deadwood staff firmly, concentrated his attention, and fired a solid "Potent Depletion Ray" at Edson's tall body.
Edson ate this ray full of negative energy impartially.
Its body size shrank a part almost quickly.
Under the weakening of the exhaustion ray.
Not only did Edson's life begin to pass slowly, but his powerful attributes were also slowly diminishing.
But he still didn't stop the raid.
The kobold who rushed to the front had already fought against Peggy.
Fortunately, Matthew's reinforcements also rushed to the frontal battlefield—
The skeleton dormitory is not far from here. Matthew has summoned 12 skeleton soldiers from the beginning with the undead summoning technique, and now they finally arrived, wrapping Matthew layer by layer in the center.
"These bones can't protect you!"
Edson roared and rushed over.
He hit Peggy with a powerful mace, which actually shattered the latter's arm bones and sternum, and staggered to the side!
The melee ability of this fourth-tier magician can be seen!
Matthew stared at Edson.
He quickly took two steps back.
The deadwood staff in his hand was aimed at the opponent again.
Whoosh!
A gray light flashed.
…
「Reminder: You used the "Negative Armor Technique" on Warlock Edson!
Edson's armor (creature fur) reduced to -1"
…
"Your spells can't hurt me!"
Edson swept hard again.
Two skeleton soldiers were directly swept away by him.
At this time, there were only less than twenty steps between him and Matthew.
But when he saw Matthew's face in the moonlight.
Edson was inevitably a little surprised.
Because it was a confident and calm smiling face.
It's now!
"kill!"
Matthew whispered.
In the shadows that no one could discern, a hip-twisting skeleton appeared silently behind the tall jackal with dancing steps.
Edson had no time to turn around.
The two short knives of Yinghuo and Haoyue can't wait to get on his thick neck.
The blades fell towards each other like kissing the lover's skin.
prick-
Blood splashes before sound.
The head fell to the ground with a scream.
Moonlit night.
The giant Gnoll's head rolled a few times on the wasteland like a rubber ball on the beach.
happened to roll in front of Matthew.
Matthew lifted his foot.
stepped on it heavily.
It happened to be at this time.
Another group of figures emerged from the cave.
They stared dumbfounded at Matthew stepping on Edson's deathly head.
Crash!
Eyeballs popped out of their sockets.
The blood splashed half a meter upwards.
Dye the necromancer's shoes and hem under the moonlit night red.
