Volume 1: The Nobles Who Lost Their Territory Chapter 45: Clay Puppet
The effect of the firewall was obvious, directly hindering the attack of the jackals.
But this is only a delay and cannot effectively harm the werewolves.
As more and more gnolls came around the gap in the east, the pressure on the adventurers and the guards suddenly increased.
But at least the wall of fire created a relatively narrow and enclosed space, preventing the jackals from rushing in.
In this situation, the human side, which has the advantage of personal force, has the upper hand.
As the captain of Team Thorn, Gru naturally has some capable people under him.
He stood alone in the front, and every swing of the heavy sword in his hand could kill more than two gnolls!
His strength is amazing!
The rest of the adventurers also took action.
They each have their own skills, which may be difficult to display on the battlefield, but in a battle in this small space, they can maximize their abilities!
This is also something Marvin took into consideration.
Adventurers really can’t be used as an army, but they can be very effective in small-scale encounters.
For example, now, there is no need even for guards. The two teams of Bobcat and Thorn alone can stop these jackals.
However, this obstruction is only temporary.
No matter how powerful the adventurers are, their physical strength will eventually run out.
The Jackals have an absolute advantage in numbers.
If we can't suppress their morale... the losing side will most likely be the human side!
“It must succeed!”
Anna pierced a gnoll's heart with her sword and glanced secretly to the east.
…
Joey's movements were slow.
Because even at this distance, if you move too quickly, the warlock may still notice it.
He didn't plan to kill the warlock with a sneak attack, because that would be useless.
This guy has a faint force field on his body, which can change the direction of arrows and is the nemesis of archers.
And his eyes of pain are the natural enemy of assassins.
The combined effect of these two makes this werewolf warlock very difficult to kill.
To achieve this, only the perfect cooperation of Marvin and Joey is needed!
Joey took a deep breath and put the arrow on the bow steadily!
There was a slight element of instability trembling in the wind.
However, the Werewolf Warlock's attention was all focused on the battlefield!
He seemed to have not noticed the two sneak attackers here at all.
“There’s a chance…”
Joey completed his last aim and finally, let go!
whoosh!
When the arrow tore through the air and shot out, Joey's figure was exposed!
The jackals guarding the warlock noticed something was wrong at the first moment, but at this moment, arrows had already whizzed past them!
The warlock was suddenly startled. He took a half step back, but was shocked to find that the arrow was not aimed at him!
On the contrary, the arrow hit the ground very erratically.
Is this a very poor human archer?
The Gnoll guard was startled and immediately began to laugh at Joey's shooting skills.
However, at this moment, the warlock suddenly let out a strange cry!
Because he discovered that there was a rope tied to the end of the arrow!
Not far away, about sixty meters away, a figure crawling on the ground appeared in the warlock's eyes.
Marvin recited a spell quickly!
The rope came alive like a snake, automatically shedding the arrow and quickly wrapping itself around the warlock's feet!
Wishful rope!
Although it is only a faint item, it can completely influence the outcome of a battle if used skillfully!
The warlock was horrified!
He mumbled something in his mouth, trying to free himself from the ropes.
But although his casting speed was fast, Marvin's movements were even faster!
He pulled the rope and changed the spell!
The rope suddenly began to shrink!
The warlock stumbled and fell to the ground, and was pulled over upside down by his feet.
In almost two breaths, the warlock came to Marvin!
The gnoll guard was horrified and rushed over howling.
However, it was too late.
Joey smiled easily.
He took out his bow and arrows and began to kill the werewolf guards.
"it's over."
He thought to himself.
…
When it comes to the prey in his hands, Marvin never shows mercy!
No matter how fast the wolf warlock's reaction is, it is not faster than Marvin's double swords!
There is only one outcome for a spellcaster when a melee ranger gets so close to him, and that is death.
Bang bang bang!
Three strikes of the sword shattered the warlock's protective force field. For the last strike, Marvin used all his strength to chop the werewolf warlock's neck!
With a snap.
The Jackal's neck broke, but the sound was a little weird.
"etc……"
Marvin suddenly felt something was wrong!
The body of this gnoll warlock...
The next second, the body of the werewolf warlock began to weather, and in an instant, it turned into a werewolf statue made of clay.
"Oh shit!"
Ma Wen cursed loudly: "It's actually a [Clay Puppet]. Damn warlock, it has become a spirit!"
Marvin did not kill the Gnoll Warlock!
This is just a clay puppet that the werewolf warlock deliberately placed in the open!
The real Gnoll Warlock is still hiding among the Gnolls.
When Joey saw this scene, he was shocked.
However, at this moment, a burst of dense shouting and killing suddenly came from behind the hill!
A Gnoll lieutenant riding a mutant coyote, led another Gnoll troop, and charged over aggressively!
Their target was Marvin alone!
"Ruined."
This was the only thought in Joey's mind at this moment.
…
"Joey! You go first!"
Marvin roared. At the critical moment, he made a prompt decision and gave the order.
Marvin charged in too deep and there was no way he could outrun the werewolf adjutant and the coyote under his mount!
Joey was farther away, and if he ran for his life, he might be able to escape back to the camp.
The archer didn't hesitate and turned around and left!
Now that the Twin-Sword Mask said so, there was no reason for him to stay where he was.
The plan failed.
That werewolf warlock is so cunning.
But before turning around and running, he suddenly pointed his finger at the center of the newly emerged werewolf army!
A faint glow flashed, and suddenly, a large mark of two crossed swords fell on a skinny werewolf!
That is the true form of the Gnoll Warlock!
Joey has shown all his strength.
This mark was enough to guide Marvin if he could still carry out the decapitation plan.
After doing all this, the archer no longer hesitated and ran away directly!
Marvin was left alone, facing more than sixty jackals!
There are also three mutant coyotes and a werewolf warlock.
…
There was a hint of commotion in the camp.
The wall of fire gradually began to weaken, and as the fire slowed down, the pressure on the human side increased a lot.
In fact, at the same time Joey shot that arrow, many adventurers had already noticed the situation over there.
When Marvin successfully caught the werewolf warlock with the wishful rope, there was a burst of amazing cheers in the camp.
They think they have won!
Without the command of the Gnoll Warlock, the Gnolls are just a group of mobs!
They are sure to win!
However, what happened next was beyond their expectations.
Although it was too far away to see what happened, Joey's running away and the sudden appearance of another group of jackals on the hill were all bad news.
The double-blade mask failed!
This was the only thought in everyone's mind.
The werewolf warlock divided his troops into two groups and attacked from two directions. The previous reckless raid was actually just a bait.
His purpose is to force the human side to reveal their true cards.
Obviously, he did.
The adventurers looked frustrated.
They saw Marvin standing alone at the foot of the hill, facing more than sixty jackals.
In such a situation, only a second-level warrior with quite good melee and defensive abilities can hope to break through the siege.
The Ranger, although a very well-rounded profession, seems to be at a loss in this situation.
Even if he is a masked man with two swords, he is dead!
Verne's eyes kept rolling and he had already started thinking about how to escape.
The mission failed.
It’s not that the human side is too bad, but that the werewolf warlock is too cunning.
However, even though the adventurers were about to give up, the members of the White River Valley security team did not give up!
They stared at Marvin's back, and Andre said impulsively: "Let's rush out and save him!"
The leader of the Thorn Squad, Gru, actually nodded and said, "I'll go with you."
He didn't want anything to happen to the Twin-Blade Mask. If his daughter really had the plague, the high-level priest might not be able to do anything about it.
However, at this moment, Anna calmly waved her hand and said:
"no."
"Everyone, hold this place."
"Everyone stop moving."
Everyone looked at Anna in astonishment.
Is she just going to watch the Masked Man with Two Blades die tragically in the mouth of the Jackal?
"Open your eyes." Anna's tone was actually a little excited.
"Some scenes are hard to see in a lifetime and should not be missed."
