The Hidden Knight of Mystra Chapter 010 Blazing Glue

The dark clouds come and go quickly.

At sunset.

The main group of thirteen people deliberately slowed down their pace and finally arrived at the Dwarf Demon Mountain deep in the southern mine.

It is called a mountain, but in fact it is just a small protruding hill.

However, the terrain of the southern mines is mostly deep open pits, so this small hill stands out from the crowd.

Ever since Kane's last crusade failed, this place has been occupied by a group of inferior dwarf demons from another world.

Intelligence shows that this group of inferior dwarf demons are not subordinates of the corpse demon.

So you can clean up with confidence without worrying about alerting the enemy.

When Roger and others arrived, the support team was already cleaning the battlefield and setting up camp.

Their operation went very smoothly.

There is a gap between inferior dwarf demons and real dwarf demons. Their individual combat effectiveness is quite poor, only slightly stronger than small earth monsters.

Faced with the organized and premeditated raid by human adventurers, the gap in weapons and morale formed a double blow.

The dwarfs quickly threw away their armor and fled in a panic.

…

The highest point of Dwarf Demon Mountain.

Several figures hid behind rocks and observed the situation below the mountain.

After finishing his lookout, Terry handed the monocular telescope to Dorothy.

His voice was very low:

"Just as recorded in the data, the situation of Bone Outpost has not changed much. It still has two standard towers."

“But there seemed to be something extra in the pit below the tower, I couldn’t see it clearly.”

Dorothy nodded slightly.

After passing this Dwarf Demon Mountain, you will reach the territory of the Corpse Demon.

It has been confirmed that the Corpse Demon is a monster with a high level of intelligence.

These two towers are the buildings used to guard against visitors from the north.

According to the latest intelligence from the scout team, there are 6 skeleton soldiers and 2 ghost guards in each tower.

These undead monsters guard the northern gate of the territory for their master day and night.

"Skeleton soldiers are fine, but their vision is very limited."

Terry concluded:

"But the ghost guards have strong perception abilities, and it's difficult for us to get close without being noticed."

"If we force a breakthrough, it will easily alert the enemy."

"I wonder what you guys think?"

Everyone looked at each other in silence.

No one is sure they can take down Bone Post without alerting the ghost guards.

Dorothy thought about it and couldn't help but turned around and asked:

"Roger, what do you think?"

"Hmm? Roger?"

The others also looked around, but found no trace of Roger.

His presence was so low that he was not discovered until now.

The adventurers reminded each other for a long time before a young archer scratched his head and said uncertainly:

"Just now, when the support team was catching the dwarf demon deserters, Mr. Roger seemed to have followed them."

"Yeah?"

Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wait, there's something going on over there!"

Terry's voice suddenly tightened, and everyone was drawn over.

Following his guidance, everyone looked down the hillside.

Near the bushes on the riverbank, less than two hundred meters away from the White Bone Sentry Post.

A skeleton soldier walked by slowly.

In an instant, a ball of flashing purple-red light popped out from the bushes, accurately hitting his eye sockets and the will-o'-the-wisp !

Silently, the ghost fire dissipated and skeletons were scattered all over the ground.

A cloaked figure flashed by in the bushes.

He walked alone towards the direction of the Bone Sentry.

…

"What is he doing?"

On the hillside, someone questioned:

"Are you going to be a hero at this time?"

"No, he was chasing that dwarf demon deserter."

Terry took back the monocular telescope, his hand tightly grasped the tube, and the veins on the back of his hand were bulging :

"Damn it! It was the support team's negligence. Two dwarf demons escaped and broke through the search network and fled to the south."

"Did you see the body near the stream? The dwarf deserter should have been killed by Mr. Roger."

"He's making up for his companion's mistakes!"

At this time, the others also noticed the dwarf demon's corpse lying near the stream halfway up the mountain.

Judging from the footprints, it was exactly as Terry had guessed.

Roger should be chasing a dwarf demon deserter who escaped!

The dwarf itself is not a concern, but if this deserter accidentally breaks into the surveillance range of the Bone Sentry and triggers the alert of the Ghost Guard, things will become very troublesome.

"Do we need to do anything to cover him?"

The adventurer who had questioned earlier asked shamefully.

"unnecessary."

Dorothy stared into the distance, her tone calm:

“Just watch him perform.”

…

Roger was indeed covering up for someone else.

As a main force, all he needs is to rest and recuperate and maintain his physical strength.

But Roger didn't trust the support team enough.

Hunting down the dwarf deserters is actually a very important matter, and none of them must be spared.

In order to prevent the adventurers in the support group from making mistakes due to lack of strength, he chose to join actively.

"Luckily I followed."

On a lonely tung tree, Roger half-crouched on a thick branch, staring calmly at the panting inferior dwarf not far away.

This guy can really run.

They escaped all the way from the middle of the mountain to the bottom, and were about to cross the river beach and enter the area of the Bone Sentry.

But it has reached its limit.

It hid behind a big rock beside the river bank, its scarlet eyes moving around constantly, looking around anxiously, as if looking for a way out.

Its strength was also exhausted, and it was now leaning against the rock, gasping for breath.

Apparently, it naively believed that the hunter who killed its companion had given up the chase.

The advantage of the "Hide" skill is fully demonstrated at this moment.

Although he couldn't move like a thief's stealth, the Hidden Knight's hiding had a stronger concealment effect, so that even though the two sides were less than 20 meters apart, the inferior dwarf demon couldn't find Roger's figure .

Roger calmly threw a "Mark of Sin" on it - when he was chasing another dwarf demon just now, he didn't have time to check the other party's attributes.

This one can't be missed.

The next moment, he pulled the Ziying bow in his hand to its full extent.

call!

The arrows make a soft sound.

The tip of the white feather arrow coated with fiery glue instantly pierced the throat of the inferior dwarf demon.

The flame burned out along the arrow head, burning the inferior dwarf demon's body to ashes at an extremely fast and violent speed.

This kind of fire glue was prepared by Roger himself. Once it catches fire, the fire will be extremely fierce.

The most amazing thing is that this thing, when used in conjunction with an arrow sealed with wax to carry out long-range sniping, can also, to a certain extent, have the effect of destroying corpses and traces.

…

"You killed a Lesser Dwarf."

"You gained 1 XP"

"Your resistance to pinkeye is slightly increased."

…

“Fuck!”

"What a careless attribute..."

Roger couldn't help but grumble quietly.

After collecting Ziying and the little finger he had just used to deal with the skeleton soldier, Roger prepared to leave.

After wiping your butt, never do anything extra.

This is a mature adventurer.

But at this moment.
