Pale Emblem

Chapter 122 Confrontation

The environment of the underground karst caves is full of strange rocks, and the sky is dark.For surface creatures, there is no boundary between day and night, and it is difficult to distinguish between east, west, north, and south. .

At least in Harvey's mind, a sense of time and direction confusion has appeared. Fortunately, his mind is pure, and he only follows Victor closely, walking quickly among the stalagmites intertwined with fangs.

It didn't take long before the sound of fighting on the other side of the cave gradually became clear. There were shouts of men and women, roars of monsters, and the explosion of weapons or sharp claws smashing stalactites.

Just from the sound of these sounds, it can be heard that the speed and strength of the two warring parties have reached an inhuman level.

Harvey stared in that direction and eagerly asked: "My lord, they are fighting fiercely. Shall we go and have a look?"

Strong curiosity is urging Victor to uncover the true face of the unknown monster, and the fighting style of the bounty hunter is also attractive to him.

Victor considered for a moment, but still suppressed his restless curiosity, he shook his head and said, "The monsters hunted by the white-haired Rhine may have a unique perception method, and they are particularly sensitive to living half-elves. It was discovered in advance. I don't want to get involved in the battle between bounty hunters and monsters, there are more important things waiting for us to do."

"The mayor of Middleton is a great pharmacist. He used Christine's special physique to concoct a very precious medicinal supplement. My idea is to take advantage of the battle between Rhine and Yisennier , to transport the auxiliary liquid away. But I miscalculated."

Victor listened attentively again, and clearly caught the movement of Rhine and two men and a woman dealing with the monster together, but he did not hear the voice of the mayor butler.This shows that Yi Senniel and Christine are not at the scene of the battle.They were most likely to use the monster to hold back the bounty hunter team, while they prepared to pack up their belongings and take the opportunity to escape.

That being the case, Victor didn't dare to delay, and said as he walked: "According to the notes left by Middleton, Yi Senniel is a fifth-level swordsman, who also masters the technique of growing giant, his body size can grow, his basic strength and natural defense can also be improved Followed by two or three times the increase, but it will reduce the speed and agility. This may be the reason why he killed a group of bandits by himself. However, Middleton has limited knowledge of combat skills, and it is difficult for him to determine whether Yi Senniel has mastered the mirror or not. Heart."

Harvey shook the Thorium fine gold sword in his hand, the blade reflected the colorful streamer, and it was extremely sharp:
"With this sword, the mayor's steward can hold Jingxin, and I can kill him."

He paused, then said worriedly: "I heard from that little girl Stephanie that the mayor's wife is a vampire in disguise... Sir, can we kill a vampire?"

The strong men in the mirror heart fight each other, and the side with the sharp weapon of the magic weapon has the upper hand.Harvey has the thorium fine gold sword, and he is not afraid of Butler Yisenniel at all. Even if the opponent has the ability to increase his size, he should not be able to block the blow of the thorium fine gold sword.However, Harvey is used to hearing horror stories about vampires, so he is not sure about the mayor's wife Christine.

Victor didn't have any psychological shadows in this area, but Middleton didn't record in detail what talents and abilities the demon-born half-elf Christine had.Considering that Christine has been enslaved and abused by the mayor for so many years, and she has never seen her resist, it is estimated that she does not have a particularly powerful ability.

"Vampires are afraid of garlic juice and flames. Let's prepare some dried mushroom torches first?" Harvey said anxiously.

He makes what he thinks is sound advice based on the vampire stories he's heard.

Victor opened his black sheepskin cloak silently, took out a few small medicine bottles from the cloak hanging bag, handed it to Harvey and said: "This is the garlic juice I made according to the method Maddie said. "

Victor actually made some preparations quietly.Although he didn't think the garlic juice would be useful, he was ashamed, so he didn't tell anyone when he pounded the garlic juice.

After all, Christine was a wild card.

What if the garlic juice has any effect on her?

Harvey happily took the bottle and said, "My lord is wise! This thing is poisonous to vampires. I drink the garlic juice, and let vampires bite me, and it will be poisoned to death."

"Uh, I think it's more reliable to use fire to deal with vampires. Come with me, I know where the fire oil is."

Victor stopped Harvey from drinking garlic juice, and then poisoned the monster with his own blood. He led him snaking among the strange rocks in the cave, and soon came to the first supply point arranged by the mayor of Middleton. .

In the stone room, the objects were turned upside down, all the gold and silver treasures were gone, and most of the well-crafted weapons were missing.Fortunately, there was still a barrel of kerosene left, so Victor and Harvey rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, found a roll of cloth strips, tore them into small pieces, wrapped the arrowheads, and dipped them in kerosene to make flaming arrows .

They quickly finish the job at hand and pick up available weapons and equipment.

Harvey found a fine iron round shield, put it on his left arm and waved it twice, nodded in praise and said, "It's a fine product, much better than the shield blade I bought from the Thieves Guild."

Victor picked three iron throwing spears and said calmly: "It's best not to do it. If I have to do it, I hope to capture Christine alive. Of course, our safety is the most important thing. You listen to my orders and you should give up." Just give up."

"As you wish, my lord." Harvey nodded affirmatively.

"Well, let's chase after it."

*****************
As the steward of the town mayor and his wife, Yisenniel, a fifth-level swordsman venerable, has a detached status, and he usually responds to everyone in Water Snake Town.Now, he is like an animal pulling a cart, wearing a pair of knee-length shorts, a half body armor, and bare muscular arms, dragging a heavy four-wheeled cart, head down and struggling forward.

The ground of the natural cave is rough and difficult, and sometimes he has to use all his strength to drag the cart full of supplies out of the pit.

"Dear Ethan, you have great strength and good physical strength, I like it very much."

Christine's coquettish giggles flowed into Yisenniel's heart like a stream of smooth honey milk.

This charming mayor's wife is putting her slender legs together, sitting curled up on the chair of the car, half of her white and flawless feet are exposed under the skirt, swaying gently with the sway of the car body, in a dignified and elegant way. There was a silent temptation.

Even if the four-wheeled cart encountered obstacles while moving forward, Christine did not intend to get out of the cart to help, as if she herself was the driver and Yisenniel was just an animal pulling the cart.

With provocative eyes, soft voice, and seductive posture, she drives the fifth-level venerable like taming the eland with a whip.This filled Christine with a sense of accomplishment, and she was in a particularly happy mood, laughing like silver bells from time to time.

Of course, Yi Senniel did not think that he was an animal enslaved by Christine. Although he killed his most important partner and abandoned the Water Snake Town he worked so hard for, he had to go out and flee, but the car was full of gold and silver treasures. , and there is also a stunning and enchanting beauty who has belonged to him since then.

Thinking of this, Yi Senniel's heart was burning, and his body was filled with endless energy.

Seeing that he was approaching the exit of the cave tunnel, Yisennier suddenly felt alert, stopped immediately, threw away the rope pulling the cart, and turned his gaze to a deep darkness in the cave.

Holding a fine iron round shield in his left hand and a sword in his right, Harvey walked slowly out of the darkness.He is not tall, but he is thick and strong, with a terrible sense of oppression, like a ferocious beast.

"Housekeeper, leave the car behind, you can go!" Harvey raised his sword and pointed at Yi Sennier, saying in a deep voice.

Yisenniel narrowed his eyes slightly, saw the narrow-edged straight sword shining with cold light, and pulled out a long-handled halberd from the cart with his backhand.This heavy weapon has an astonishing weight and is full of power. The key point is that it can destroy fine iron shields, and it can also forcibly shake the top-level long sword by virtue of its weight.

"Harvey, you want to stop Mrs. Christine and me by yourself? Call out all your accomplices!" Yi Senniel pointed at Harvey with one hand and shouted in a cold voice.

Professional swordsmen are highly compatible with all melee weapons, not limited to swords, but also long-handled heavy weapons.When the swordsman reaches level six, Ignite Mystic Blood will have the ability similar to the heart of the mirror, and any melee weapon can make it superb.On the other hand, shield guards have to go through long-term practice before they can master the skills of using one or two weapons. They often choose the shield blade and a short weapon.

Yi Senniel abandoned the two swords and chose a two-meter-long fine iron heavy halberd, which just restrained Harvey's round shield and thorium fine gold sword.

Harvey only saw that he was holding a halberd with one hand, which was as stable as a rock, and he knew that this venerable swordsman was powerful and experienced in combat, and he was a formidable opponent.

So, with a serious expression, Harvey held up his shield to hide his sword, and approached the mayor butler step by step with the usual defensive techniques of shield guards.Every step he takes seems to be measured with precision, with an unshakable momentum that crushes the spirit of his opponent.

Defensive and offensive, unstoppable!
If you can't break the shield guard, your spirit will be crushed by the shield guard.

Harvey has a reputation as a sixth-level shield guard in Water Snake Town. When Yisenniel met him for the first time, he also secretly figured out the strength comparison between the two sides, but when he really faced Harvey's impeccable defensive posture, he inevitably felt nervous. Anxious emotions, especially when the other party claims that he can let him live.

Knowing that this is Harvey's psychological attack strategy, Yi Senniel will still weigh the option of escaping alone.

With the shield guard's slow pursuit speed, he would definitely be able to escape if he really wanted to, but if Harvey's bounty hunter companions also caught up, he would have no chance of escaping.

The sound of Harvey's heavy footsteps became heavier in Yisenniel's ears, and when he was about to shake, a faint sigh sounded from the side.

"Mr. Harvey, why don't you take a look at me?" The mayor's wife, who was beautiful and enchanting, adjusted her sitting posture and stared at Harvey, asking in a gentle voice and a resentful tone.

Harvey was afraid of Christine from the bottom of his heart. He heard that vampires could steal the soul of a half-elf with just his eyes, so he never even looked at Christine.

Hearing the mayor's wife speak, Harvey couldn't help but stop.He suddenly lifted the shield, and threw several small medicine bottles at Christine like lightning.

"No!"

Yisennier let out a sharp shout, moved sideways, and used his strong body to block the bottle thrown by Harvey for Christine.

Harvey's throwing skills, which deeply ignite the fire of the soul, are exquisite and powerful, and he suddenly throws five bottles at a time.Yisenniel was caught off guard and only blocked three of them. The bottle was broken and the garlic juice inside spilled all over him.

The pungent smell stunned Yisennier for a moment, and after smelling it carefully, he murmured, "Garlic juice?"

"This garlic juice is not fresh enough."

The seemingly delicate Christine raised her slender white palms, caught the two bottles that were coming in mid-air, opened one of them, took a sip of the garlic juice inside, and smiled lightly at the corners of her mouth. evaluated.

Harvey widened his eyes and asked in disbelief, "You, why are you afraid of garlic juice?"

"Garlic juice? Haha, garlic juice...I thought you were an accomplice of those people, but it's not...haha." Yisenniel looked at Harvey jokingly, his eyes gradually becoming fierce.

He is confident that he can defeat Harvey, but he is not sure that he can solve the opponent in a short time.Since Harvey is not an accomplice of the bounty hunter Rhine, it doesn't matter.

It's too late to kill Harvey first, and then escape with Christine!

At this moment, a mass of red light lit up in the darkness of the cave, and immediately after that, streams of scorching flames flew out, aiming at Christine's eyebrows, eyes, heart and other vital points.

The mayor's wife, who had always been elegant and lazy, finally moved. She jumped out of the carriage, moving like a ghost, but instead of falling behind the carriage and using the body of the carriage as a cover to avoid the attack, she faced the fire arrow, grabbed it, and Dial the rest.Following her movements, a pair of slender legs broke through the shackles of the loose skirt, white and lustrous, almost dazzling.

Christine snuffed out the raging flames on the arrow, tilted her head in the direction of the fire more than 80 meters away, and said in a rambling voice: "The flame arrow is too conspicuous, maybe the effect will be better if you use a blacked-out dull arrow." . . . Do you think so, Mr. Victor?"

Victor, who was shooting arrows in the distance, thought for a while, raised his boots, stepped on the fire beside him, walked over with a war bow, and asked the mayor's wife: "I heard that you were an angel from the City of Light." Do you know me from the famous winged family?"

Christine's eyes flashed, and she said with a charming smile: "Although Mr. Victor puts on makeup, your posture is as dazzling as a flame in the dark. I knew you before I saw you." gone."

"That means I don't know you." Victor shook his head in disappointment, then looked at Christine carefully, nodded and said, "I'm very interested in you."

The face of Yisenniel next to him changed suddenly, but Christine didn't think it was disobedient. She smiled and bent a pair of passionate and moist eyes, covered her mouth and said:

"It's my pleasure."

"Unfortunately, you are too dangerous."

Victor shook his head regretfully, his icy blue eyes were filled with anger, and he said coldly, "Besides, you dared to laugh at me just now? Harvey, kill her!"

"As ordered!"

After receiving the master's order, Harvey was full of fighting spirit and charged towards Christine.

"Don't even think about it! Your opponent is me!"

Yisenniel raised his heavy halberd and stabbed straight at Harvey's shield. The explosive force knocked it back, and the two immediately fought together.

Victor frowned. During the confrontation just now, he had noticed that Christine possessed swift speed, low-light vision, and natural charm ability.

Harvey, whose mental body has been transformed, should be able to ignore Christine's charm. Even if he can't win quickly, he still has an advantage against the unarmed Christine.

Victor himself can rely on his superb speed and agility to use Fengxing Arrow to kill Yi Sennier first, and then join forces with Harvey to jointly solve the suspected vampire Christine.

This is the most reasonable tactic.

However, Yiseniel used a long-handled heavy weapon to form a stalemate with Harvey, so Victor had to deal with Christine to prevent her and Yiseniel from attacking Harvey.

Due to Christine's extraordinary speed and reflexes, close-range Fengxing arrows may not be effective against her, so Victor drew out his thorium adamantine sword, concentrated his mind, and planned to use flashing swordsmanship to compete with her.

However, Christine folded her arms and watched the mayor's housekeeper and Harvey fight with great interest, without any intention of fighting Victor.

Victor's curiosity was aroused again, and he asked ponderingly, "What are you doing?"

"Watch them fight."

"Aren't you ready to fight?"

Christine turned her head and asked, "Why are we fighting? I'm a trophy... If your men win, I'm your trophy. If my butler wins, I'm his trophy. The two of us deal with you One, you have to run away. If this is the case, why do we need to hurt each other? If you hurt the booty, what good will it do you? Why don't you do it if I don't do it, okay?"

"The spoils?" Victor was surprised.He didn't expect it to be like this.

"Isn't a beauty like me not qualified to be Mr. Victor's trophy?"

Christine was facing Victor, hooked off her shoulder straps with her slender fingers, and let the long skirt woven with moth silk slide down to her ankles, revealing a plump and plump body.
