Chapter 347 Fearless (Two chapters in one)
It was a team of dozens of Fengpengs, flying at an extremely fast speed. In just a few blinks of an eye, they were already much closer to where Ryan was.
"Quick! Prepare the crossbows!"
"Prepare the purple tumor wood fruits!"
"Others, quickly and secretly!" The bearded knight seemed experienced, and he was seen issuing orders in an orderly and rapid manner.
Soon, purple watermelon-sized purple tumor wood fruits were ejected into the sky and suddenly exploded.
A faint purple mist suddenly drifted away.
After smelling this strange smell, the Fengpeng began to circle and no longer approached, as if they were quite afraid of this mist.
After releasing a few wind blades, dozens of Fengpengs turned around and left.
"Fortunately, they were finally forced to leave." The bearded knight breathed a sigh of relief and said.
Ryan was quite surprised. He thought he would face a battle with the Fengpeng, but he didn't expect it to disappear without a trace.
At this time, Melita and Anna came over, with three almost frozen knights behind them, who were the three who had just teased Melita.
When these three guys saw that their own high priests were killed, they immediately wanted to escape, but were blocked by Melita and Anna.
"Tell me, who are you?"
"Uh" Several people looked at each other, and it seemed that none of them wanted to be the first to speak.
"Lord Ryan, leave the interrogation to me, and make sure they confess everything honestly." The bearded knight patted his chest and said.
"Okay, that's troublesome."
"Okay! Give me half an hour, take them away, and interrogate them separately." The bearded man waved his hand, and several guards took the people away.
Taking advantage of this gap, Ryan opened the waist bag of the sturdy black robe and took a look. After a quick look, he was surprised.
"Huh? Soul energy crystals and blood crystals?"
There were five soul energy crystals, three blood crystals, and a letter in the waist bag.
Ryan could understand that the other party needed blood crystals.
But did the other party also need soul crystals?
Ryan was a little confused.
In fact, Ryan had misunderstood. These soul crystals were originally used by Ericson to win over some powerful wandering wizards, but now Ryan had taken advantage of them.
After thinking about it, Ryan decided to use all the soul crystals without much hesitation.
After all, he had tried it last time. Using the system, Ryan could absorb soul crystals instantly without any side effects, thereby greatly improving the progress of mental atomization.
Ryan held the five soul crystals in his palm and activated the Iron Heart Advanced Meditation Method.
After a few seconds
, the soul crystals were resonated in some way, and a wisp of transparent strange breath emanated from them and was quickly absorbed by Ryan's body.
At this time, the system prompt sounded:
[Ding! Soul crystals that can improve the degree of mental atomization have been detected. Do you want to accelerate absorption? (Note: The system can remove impurities and absorb all at once.)】
"Yes!"
Instantly, Ryan felt the silver mist in his mind begin to increase rapidly, and soon, it expanded to about twice its original size.
At the same time, a refreshing feeling filled his mind.
Ryan glanced at the system panel:
Spirit: 64 (atomization 42%)
"Five pieces, a one-time increase of 21%? The average is less than 5%, about 4%."
"Sure enough, this soul energy crystal is not omnipotent, and the effect will get worse as time goes by."
But Ryan was not dissatisfied.
Because these five soul energy crystals are almost like picking them up for free.
According to the calculation that for every point increase in the degree of atomization, the power of witchcraft increases by 0.5 points, the power of witchcraft currently cast by Ryan is about 10% higher than the previous 21%.
The torture has not yet ended, and Ryan checked the previous battle records:
【Congratulations, you defeated the strong enemy and obtained 15 gold skill points! 】
【Congratulations, your Will (Hidden) attribute has been upgraded! 】
【Congratulations, your Thousand Blade King (Epic) occupation level has been upgraded! 】
With this battle, the Thousand Blade King (Epic) occupation level has successfully entered level 9, allowing Ryan to gain another 1 attribute point and 1 skill point.
Adding his original remaining points, the total remaining attribute points are now 8 points, the remaining skill points are 2 points, and the gold skill points have reached 36 points.
At this time, Melita, with a solemn face, handed a white letter to Ryan and said:
"Lord Ryan, this is a letter found from another black robe. Perhaps you should take a look."
"Oh?" Ryan took it curiously and read it quickly.
However, after a quick glance, Ryan's face also became solemn.
"Ryan, what's wrong?" Anna couldn't help but worry.
"Take a look too." Ryan handed the letter to Anna.
"Being attacked from both sides by the Black Flame Church and the white-haired bear monster? Isn't that La Grey?" Anna took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but exclaimed.
She immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Well! It seems that we have to leave immediately. The situation of the barbarian tribe where Lagre is is not very good."
It turned out that the letter was sent by a Black Flame Church priest named Crowley, who was also the leader of the Black Flame Cult's advance team. The recipient of the letter was the high priest named Ericson lying on the ground.
The general idea is that Crowley and his men have already started to attack the Norton tribe from the front and back with the white-haired bear monster, but the Nortons are very strong and need support.
At the same time, the defenders of Beverly Pass also tortured out relevant information. After the two were confirmed, the news in the letter was confirmed.
"But. I have dealt with their reinforcements in advance?!"
Ryan, riding on the blood-feathered horned eagle, looked down at the headless corpse in the pit and thought with a rather strange expression.
-
The northern foothills of the Hanluo Mountains.
Two black flame monks wearing black robes with flame patterns on their cuffs and collars, and several tall white-haired bear monsters, were at the top of the foothills on one side, looking at the battle on the lower right.
In the narrow valley area, the migrating barbarian team was fighting at the head and tail ends at the same time.
Of course, the intensity was completely different.
The enemies behind the barbarian team were a small number of black-robed people with some knights and a large number of mercenaries. The battle was not fierce, and it looked more like a harassing contact battle.
In front of the barbarian team, the enemy was a group of white bear monsters holding giant wooden hammers or spiked hammers. The battle here was obviously much more intense.
In terms of numbers, the white bear monsters and barbarian warriors were similar, with slightly more white bear monsters.
But among the barbarians, some were very strong, especially a particularly burly barbarian who used a double-edged battle axe, who was almost unstoppable on the battlefield.
A bear monster leader with flaming red feathers on his head was beaten back step by step, and only with the help of three extra strong bear monster guards could he barely resist the opponent.
Crowley, the chief priest of the Black Flame Cult, watched this scene through a copper monocular telescope, and his eyelids twitched.
Damn, this barbarian patriarch is so fierce!
Fortunately, the white-haired bear monsters were the main force to attack this time, otherwise, the followers under his command would have suffered heavy casualties.
"Is there any news from the High Priest Erickson?" Crowley asked in a low voice with his head tilted.
"Reporting to the Lord, High Priest Erickson has just sent a message saying that they have arrived at Beverly Pass. It will take more than half a day for them to join us." Another black robe said respectfully.
"That's good." Crowley sighed and nodded as if relieved.
It's best to let the high priest deal with this kind of guy.
Now, let you be arrogant for a while.
"Followers of the God of Hunting, why hasn't the high priest you mentioned arrived yet?"
As if he had heard the whispers of Crowley and the others, the white-haired bear monster, who held a white bone staff in one hand, a fang necklace around his neck, and a gorgeous feather crown on his head, questioned in a fluent common language.
"Your Excellency, please rest assured. The High Priest Erickson of my sect will arrive in half a day. By then, he will deal with the chieftain of the Norton barbarians."
"Well, I hope you won't break your promise. Many of our brave clan warriors have been killed or injured. If your High Priest doesn't come, you can only take one-third of the subsequent spoils." The bear monster priest said with a somewhat ugly look.
It was still very dissatisfied with the Black Flame Church's cooperation behavior of working but not working hard.
"Of course not."
"By the way, Your Excellency, we can send a message to withdraw the troops. In half a day, we will launch a general attack." Crowley said with a smile.
He didn't take the threat of the bear monster priest to heart at all.
After the arrival of High Priest Erickson, who will dominate is still decided by the person with the strongest strength.
It is meaningless to fight with the bear monster now.
"Well!" The bear monster priest looked a little better when he heard the withdrawal of troops.
At least, the warriors under his command can suffer fewer casualties.
At this time, a white-haired bear monster suddenly ran over from the side of the mountain and talked to the bear monster priest. The bear monster priest was overjoyed.
This immediately made Crowley curious and asked, "Your Excellency the priest, is there any good news?"
"Hahaha, the great Lord Corasius has recovered from his injuries. If these fools from the barbarian tribe choose to resist to the end and do not join our king, then their doom will come."
Although the bear monster priest was smarter than ordinary bear monsters, it was obvious that he did not have the cunning of humans. Facing Crowley's inquiry, he was happy and immediately informed him of the situation.
"Huh?" Crowley's eyes flashed with a trace of horror!
The injury of the ancestor dragon actually recovered so quickly?
This is not a good thing.
Originally, the relationship between them and the white-haired bear monster was a mutually beneficial one. If the ancestor dragon Corasius came, then there would be no problem for them, the Black Flame Church.
Although he was confident in the strength of High Priest Ericson, the opponent was a giant dragon!
By then, even if High Priest Ericson came in person, it would be impossible to anger such a powerful Proto-Dragon.
I just hope that High Priest Ericson can arrive quickly and launch a general attack as soon as possible. Crowley thought.
"Followers of the God of Hunting, if you wait for my king to arrive, I will not have the final say on the distribution of the spoils. Everything belongs to my king!" The white-haired bear monster priest was excited, and suddenly thought of something, and said bluntly.
"That's right, that's right!" Crowley laughed dryly and agreed.
In his heart, he cursed loudly, 'Damn, beasts are beasts, they have no sense of contract at all! '
'Fuck! '
As the white-haired bear monsters withdrew their troops, the whole battle seemed to end hastily.
Since the Norton tribe was a whole tribe, and there were many old, weak, women, children and baggage in the team, no one, including the patriarch Darius, launched a counterattack against the white-haired bear monsters, but took the time to treat the wounded and comfort the people.
In the center of the plateau yak caravan, in a tent that had just been built.
The barbarian captains and elites above, including Lagre, were summoned to hold a brief wartime meeting.
"High priest, patriarch, this is the third wave of white-haired bear monsters we have encountered. The warriors have not been able to get an effective rest, and they have been fighting one after another, and more and more people have been injured." The barbarian captain named John wiped the blood from his face and said in a deep voice.
"What about the Reachmen? How long will it take them to get here?" Darius turned to ask the guards beside him.
"Well, the Reachmen said that they were also attacked by the Black Flame Cult, and it is expected to take another three days to get here."
"Three days." Darius frowned and muttered to himself.
Hearing this number, everyone present looked unhappy.
Lagre was also panting at this time. After continuous fighting, she had several shallow wounds on her body. The edge of the giant shield in her hand was also severely worn, but her eyes were still bright.
At this time, the messenger at the door came to report.
"High Priest, Chief, there is a female wizard outside. She said she came from Winterhold College and has something important to tell the Chief and the High Priest."
"Winterhold College? Please let them in." As the chief of the barbarian clan, Darius had naturally heard of this wizard organization in the north, but the two sides rarely had any contact.
Soon, a dignified middle-aged woman in a white robe came in and saluted:
"High Priest Rom, Chief Darius, good day, I am Welty, the vice president of Winterhold College."
"I am here this time because I have a very important news to tell you. The ancestor dragon Corasius in the ice field has begun to come in this direction."
"It will take half a day at the fastest and one day at the slowest. The other party will arrive here."
This news was like a thunderbolt, and everyone present immediately changed color!
"What, so fast!" Darius's eyes widened, looking at the witch in front of him.
At present, just Corasius's followers, this group of white-haired bear monsters with a large number, have brought them great trouble.
If the ancestor dragon comes in person, the consequences can be imagined!
You must know that the Rich people have not arrived yet. Even if Darius is confident, he does not think that his own Norton tribe can defeat the said powerful Corasius.
Barbarians are brave, not stupid.
"Yes, Chief Darius, that's why we came. For Winterhold College, Corasius is also an enemy. His tyrannical temperament has killed and destroyed the peace of the North."
"You two may not know that our Winterhold College has already fought a war with this Proto-Dragon before. Now that I have notified Winterhold College, I will return immediately to organize the defense of the college." After
the middle-aged beautiful woman Welty finished her story, she said goodbye.
"Thank you, Vice President Welty, the Norton people will remember it in their hearts."
Half a day passed in a flash.
At this time, the horn sounded!
The white-haired bear monsters lined up again, and the wandering knights and mercenaries recruited by the Black Flame Church, one after another, launched another fierce attack on the Norton tribe.
But this time was different. The elite barbarians, including Lagre, felt the rising momentum of the bear monsters!
Suddenly, everyone on the battlefield looked up at the sky.
"Ang!!!"
A dragon-like creature appeared in the distant sky. Although the other party should be at a very long distance, its huge size was quite eye-catching.
With the loud dragon roar, the other party flapped its huge flesh wings and approached quickly.
"Oh my God! What kind of monster is this!"
Many brave Norton barbarians stared at the huge monster flying in the sky.
They saw that the other party was completely different from the dragon in their impression. The other party did not have a slender neck, nor huge and shining scales, and even on the head, there was no dragon horn like the five-colored dragon.
The bald head was more like a lizard. The huge jaw showed that the bite force was extremely strong, the neck was short and thick, and the hind limbs were extremely strong.
If Ryan was at the scene, he would definitely sigh, isn't this a mixture of Tyrannosaurus Rex and Pterosaur!
"Barbarians on the tundra, surrender or be destroyed." The grand and low voice, along with the vibration of the chest of the proto-dragon, suddenly resounded throughout the battlefield.
As the huge shadow was cast, the overwhelming momentum of Colasius, and the buzzing sound in the air, even the bravest barbarian warriors were terrified at this moment.
A feeling of impending disaster arose in the hearts of almost every barbarian.
This has nothing to do with courage. It
is simply out of the instinctive fear of high-level creatures.
"High Priest, War Song!" Among the barbarians present, the only one who was not panicked was Patriarch Darius.
Of course, this was also thanks to the advance notice of Winterhold College, which was considered a vaccination in advance. He quickly turned his head and shouted to the High Priest Rom behind him.
In the previous discussion, they had also made plans for the worst. What
if the Rich people couldn't make it in time, and the ancestor dragon Colasius arrived first?
"Ancestors of the Norton tribe, please listen to the call of your descendants. The heroic spirits bless us!" As the high priest Rom chanted in a low voice, an inexplicable breath spread out, and the originally panicked barbarian warriors began to calm down.
At the same time, they also began to respond to the high priest's war song and shouted.
"Ancestors bless you!"
"Ancestors bless you!"
Before long, the shouts of the barbarians, like sparks, gathered together, forming a majestic force that could compete with the momentum of the ancestral dragon Colasius!
Obviously, this behavior of the Norton barbarians angered Colasius who was hovering in the sky.
"Stupid and humble barbarians! What awaits you will be death and destruction!"
As the low roar sounded again, the huge ancestral dragon began to dive down from the air.
I saw a blue phosphorescent, extremely cold ice flame, from Colasius's open bloody mouth, spewing towards the plateau yak caravan in the center of the barbarian battle formation.
In an instant, more than ten yak carts were frozen by the breath of ice flames.
Not only the yaks, but also the old people and children of the Norton tribe on these carts were instantly frozen into ice sculptures, and the expressions on their faces were eternally maintained at the moment of horror before being frozen.
Then, as if to further destroy the fighting will of the barbarians, Colasius chose an area with the most concentrated barbarian warriors on the battlefield and landed with a bang.
"Boom!"
As its body weighing more than 100 tons landed, dozens of barbarian warriors were directly crushed into meat patties on the spot, and blood mist filled the air.
At the same time, a strong shock wave spread out, and in an instant, hundreds of barbarian warriors around were blown away.
For a time, the ancestor dragon Colasius was unparalleled in power!
But with the blessing of the war song, the ancestor dragon's behavior not only did not scare the barbarians, but angered the barbarian elite.
"Damn it!"
At this moment, the barbarian captains, including Lagre, spontaneously began to gather behind the patriarch Darius.
Everyone's expression was extremely resolute, because next, they were about to launch a charge that was almost certain to kill them!
"Warriors, this giant reptile actually threatened us Nortons with death. Tell it what death means to us?!"
Darius, a barbarian patriarch who was over two and a half meters tall, waved his double-edged battle axe high and shouted.
"Death is glory!"
The elite barbarians behind Darius also raised their weapons and roared.
"Warriors, there will be a place for us in the Hall of Valor!"
"Nortons will never be slaves!"
In an instant, Darius led the top warriors among this group of barbarians and launched a fatal charge towards the huge Proto-Dragon Corasius who had just landed.
Because most of the Frostwolves, when facing the Proto-Dragon Corasius, had already tucked their tails and let out a whimpering growl.
Therefore, the barbarian warriors, including Lagre, at this moment, relied on their legs to launch a brave and fearless charge!
Although the barbarians were all tall, compared with the giant Corasius, it was just the difference between a hen and an ant.
The huge proto-dragon, which was sixty or seventy meters long, was much larger than its peers and almost twice as large as the "Red Queen" that Ryan had seen, which was daunting.
Looking at the barbarians charging over, even Crowley, the enemy of the Black Flame Church, who was watching the battle on the side of the mountain, couldn't help but admire from the bottom of his heart: "This is a truly fearless warrior!"
Facing the charge of the Nortons, the proto-dragon Corasius lightly raised his claws and directly slapped three barbarian warriors whose strength was comparable to that of senior human knights, flying twenty or thirty meters.
The difference in strength made these barbarian warriors completely lose their combat effectiveness in mid-air, with broken bones and tendons, and blood gushing out.
"Ah!!!"
The angry Norton Patriarch Darius jumped high and swung the double-edged battle axe in his hand heavily at Corasius.
"Swish!"
A deep wound was cut on the front claws and front wings of the giant proto-dragon, but the next second, Darius was also knocked away by the huge force of Colasius.
"Small and humble barbarians, you will pay the price for your stupidity and recklessness!"
The key is not over yet. Colasius was very angry at the barbarian chieftain who hurt it. With a roar, it breathed out another blue flame towards Darius who was knocked away in mid-air!
A ball of blue phosphorescent dragon breath instantly swept Darius.
The barbarian chieftain who was still in mid-air suddenly felt stiff all over, and a biting cold swept over his body.
"Chief!"
Lagre looked at this scene and couldn't help but show determination. She tightened the battle axe and giant shield in her hands, stared at the fierce proto-dragon Colasius, and launched a charge.
Unfortunately, there is no chance to see that person again!
Ryan's figure flashed through her mind
, but at this moment, in the southern sky of the battlefield, which no one noticed, a small dot rapidly enlarged!
It was a blue and purple horned eagle beast, and at this moment, it was rushing towards her.
