Chapter 114 Gloria
Howlings came one after another.
A figure could be seen leaping among the trees in the distance, followed by several dark figures, and the orcs' roars were getting closer and closer. Sauron took Vivian back and prepared to evacuate. Goria also quickly blessed a spell, but monsters from all directions seemed to have discovered them. They could vaguely see several extremely agile figures jumping off the tree pole, and they were actually planning to go around in front to stop them. One of the figures was extremely eye-catching, and it was actually a large black cheetah.
Mutant beast!
Some special beasts have certain mutated genes, which may be related to taboo experiments during the Arcane Empire period. They appeared in large numbers for a period of time, but were later captured and killed many, and many of them escaped to the astral realm and outer planes. Some beasts in the material plane also inherited these mutated genes, and when the biological level is advanced to a certain stage, gene mutations may occur. This kind of beast has spell-like abilities, but the number is very rare, and most of them only have high intelligence and powerful hunting ability.
These beasts are said to be the failures of the beast-turned human experiment.
Sauron stopped and handed Vivian over to Goria next to him. The black cheetah who stopped them in front of him was quite difficult to deal with. Its size was close to the size of a Siberian tiger. The obvious muscle outline could be seen on his elegant body, just like a bodybuilding champion inside a wild beast. This represents the opponent's strength. Its power may even be greater than that of a brown bear, and the power of the claw strike may tear the armor. The cheetah's sprinting speed was quite terrible, and Sauron did not dare to continue to escape because it was exposing his back to his eyes.
With a short distance sprint, there are almost no creatures that can surpass this mutated large cheetah!
Jackals, tigers and leopards, cheetahs are more dangerous than tigers in the wilderness, because you basically cannot run faster than it on land. When dealing with this creature, you will only be knocked down by it in an instant, and then bit off your throat ruthlessly. Sauron took a deep breath in the sprint. Then the muscles in his body exerted force, jumped ten meters away, and waved the scimitar and slashed towards the black panther's head. The beast had no protection, and the skin could not block his attack.
A light jump.
The large black panther agilely avoided his attack, and at the same time, anthropomorphic sarcasm appeared on his face. The wisdom of this beast was higher than expected, and its biological level might have reached level three or more.
But it was still too careless!
Soren raised his fingers in an instant without a single blow. In just one second, two arcane missiles were shot out from his fingertips. No matter how fast the black panther was hit at such a close range, it was impossible to avoid it. The next moment, a small hole was opened on its neck, and two arcane missiles pierced through its leopard skin, leaving a wound about three centimeters deep, and blood immediately splattered out.
With Sauron's spell strength, two arcane missiles shot at such a close range will cause at least twenty points of damage!
1 point of spell strength can strengthen the power of 1 point of arcane missile. It is not a joke for high-level wizards to use arcane missiles to penetrate armor. Soren's spell strength is about ten points. Even if he loses the strength saving throw of his physique, he can also make the target a minor injury. The sudden injury cheetah was obviously half a beat slower. Soren then swung his sword up and slashed on its back with the blood light. This knife cut out a wound that was nearly five centimeters deep, but after breaking through the muscle layer, he was unable to succeed. He could only draw the knife and retreat quickly.
The strength of the physique reduces damage!
It is roughly two points to increase the damage reduction by 1 point, and some creatures with strong vitality can also use the muscle layer to clamp weapons.
Dragons are among the best.
Without extraordinary weapons to deal with sub-dragon creatures, even if it breaks its dragon skin, it cannot break its strong muscles and cannot damage the vital points of the internal organs. It is very difficult to kill dragons by just bleeding damage.
The sharp claws slashed through the cold light.
The thick and tough leopard tail whipped over, and the wind whistled like a whip. Soren twisted his body to avoid it, leaving three shallow scratches on his arm, and the leopard tail whipped his waist, but with his physique, he could still withstand it. Other monsters nearby were getting closer and closer, so Soren took out his dead wooden stick in an instant and pointed at the black panther in front of him.
A spell aura appeared.
The weeds on the ground suddenly grew wildly, tangling towards the cheetah in front of him like tough vines. Even though it had the power of a large cat, it could not break free for a while. This short one or two seconds was enough for Sauron. He jumped to the back of the black panther, pressed it down with his strength, and then held the scimitar tightly with both hands and chopped it down. The power of [Sword Strong Slash] exploded in an instant, and the scimitar cut off the black panther's head.
The blood gushed out was three or five meters away. The headless corpse of the black panther stiffened for a moment before falling down with a bang.
A row of data emerges:
"Activate the [Sword Strong Slash]!"
"Trigger the decapitation attack!... Deal with 125 points of decapitation damage to the target!... Death of the target!..."
"Take soul energy."
"You have gained 2450 killing experience!"
……………………
It is indeed a cheetah above level three.
The level of creatures is estimated to be around 12. It is not that you caught someone off guard with magic, but it is more difficult to deal with it than with earth elements.
"Brother, be careful!"
Vivian's scream suddenly came from behind Sauron, and Golia also cast a spell at a rapid speed in an instant. She first blessed them with a spell, then raised her hand and pointed to shoot a blood-red light into the front.
——"Death finger!"
The trembling sound of the bowstring was heard. Soren didn't even think about it, and the next moment he activated the elemental crystal on his body. A yellow mark on the ground spread to his whole body. Almost as the stone skin technique was blessed with him, a sharp arrow also flew over and hit his chest directly. The power on the arrow made him take a step back.
Next to the bushes ahead, a tall and burly mixed orc holding a strong bow and locked on Sauron with a hideous gaze.
But the next moment its gaze turned into astonishment!
Because Sauron did not fall down, the arrow shot into his chest, but it was only stuck between his ribs. The arrow that was supposed to shoot him directly was offset by the stone skin technique. In addition, his 20-point strength save from extraordinary physique, although the arrow shot into his chest, the damage caused was far less than expected. He gritted his teeth and pulled out the arrow, and the leather armor on his chest was shot through. The opponent used a refined strong bow.
The dark red light hit the tall and burly orc the next moment. His whole body stiffened for a moment, and then he fell straight to the ground!
Seven Ring Spell [Death Finger]!
The Death Finger cast by the High-level Northland Witch is not a joke. It is not easy for all professions below level 4 to pass the death save.
The inability to pass the death save is the result of a moment of death!
Sauron pulled out the arrow and ignored the wound. He suddenly swung his knife to hold the attack of another mixed-blood orc next to him. The heavy battle axe with fierce force made him sink. A werewolf-like hybrid creature on the left threw out a short axe and hit Sauron's back the next moment.
clang!
The short axe seemed to hit the extremely strong marble. The leather armor on Soren's back was only a little sunken, and it was almost not damaged by any damage. The opponent's strength was not very high, and he should have not specially trained throwing weapons. The attack intensity of the short axe did not exceed 20 points, and it was impossible to break Soren's stone skin protection energy at all.
The existence of the Northland witch attracted most of the attention of the hunters. At least more than half of the hunters bypassed Soren and rushed to Golia and Vivian behind him. The wizard is the most terrifying existence and must not give them the chance to cast spells. A monster with a hideous face, Sauron could not recognize him roared. The body suddenly began to grow much bigger, then took a deep breath and sprinted on the ground to run, at an almost incredibly fast speed.
A violent mixed-blood beast!
Faced with such a dangerous situation, Goria was still calm. She even had time to pull Vivian behind her, then she suddenly pulled out her staff and pointed a fireball the size of a washbasin, and the target was not the enemy in front of her. Instead, it exploded directly in the open space in front. A second time back, the monster sprinting rapidly did not have time to stop, and it was completely inertial force. While it rushed over, it also happened to enter the explosion core area of the fireball technique.
The next second it was covered in blood and flesh, its chest was blown to pieces, and its hair was burning.
"Vivian see clearly!"
Goria had a terrifying aura, which was completely different from what Sauron knew. She said in a cold voice: "Do you remember the movement calculation I taught you? Movement positioning and spell prediction are very important techniques. Many enemies are extremely fast, and spells do not have to be aimed at the enemy to be effective!"
The howling wind sounded.
Two flying axes and a long sword threw towards the two of them. Goria didn't care at all. She inserted the staff into the ground with a bang, and then cast the spell with both hands quickly, and said: "The spell protection field is the foundation of the spellcaster. During the battle, you must ensure that you are always shrouded by the energy protection field."
Bang bang bang bang.
The thrown weapon seemed to hit the invisible air, making a muffled sound when it touched the energy protection field. Goria's expression did not change at all, and she seemed to have not looked at the enemies rushing over. Focus is the most important basic skill for the caster in battle. The caster cannot be distracted and let the enemy interrupt his spell casting. The focus technique can also make them more sensitive to the changes around them.
——"Shadow Black Tentacles!"
Six energy tentacles broke out of the ground and shot in an instant. Half of the enemies rushing towards him suddenly staggered in an instant, and then they were rolled upside down by the energy tentacles. The shadow black tentacles used by the high-level witch were completely different from those used by Sauron. The energy tentacles wrapped around and strangled the two enemies directly to death, and then they wrapped around everyone close to him and dragged them back and hung them in the air.
Then Golia slowly pulled up her staff and said in a low voice: "Vivian. You must always remember one thing. For wizards, control is more important than damage!"
There was a strange silence on the battlefield.
Everyone, including Sauron, saw the true strength of a high-level Northland witch at this moment!
This is the style of a high-level magician!
