Lords of the Heavens

Chapter 132 Battle of the Quarry

"go!"

Li Wei suddenly spoke softly, and the group immediately understood and stood up, running up the steep slope to charge towards the hill above the quarry.

Almost simultaneously, wolf howls echoed from behind the hill, followed by shouts of charging curses from over 300 meters away, as thirty bandits roared and pounced.

Both sides have played their cards open!

Now it's the black-robed witch's turn to be the gambler.

She either had to flee again immediately to avoid battle, or gamble on whether she and the two two-star mutated blood wolves could hold off Li Wei and the others.

This will make it easier for the thirty bandits to surround them!

And without a doubt, she's a gambling addict!

Gambling is human nature and hard to avoid. Sometimes, in a split second, people will impulsively make a decision because they can really see the light of victory!
"&……*%￥&……&"

On the hill, two two-star mutated blood wolves lunged fiercely, while the black-robed witch stopped riding the blood wolves and unleashed their fighting power as much as possible. As for herself, she stood on the hill, chanting incantations, looking quite dignified.
But at that moment, Li Wei rushed forward very quickly!

Completely disregarding their role as ranged attackers, Old John, who constantly tries to wander to the edge of the battlefield, and Sophie, wielding a crossbow, flanking Old John, provide support. Their response isn't bad; in fact, it's quite good.

You can't expect two ranged attackers to launch an attack.

Right.

But Li Wei had to charge forward, because only if he fought desperately would Clyde and Leon, two very strong warriors, fight desperately to avoid making mistakes and incurring double penalties. They couldn't possibly perform worse than their lord.

This is a conspiracy and there is no solution!
The two-star composite bow was always on Li Wei's back. At this moment, he was holding the ordinary iron spear. The two-star Bloodthirsty Spear was no longer usable, whether for throwing or close-range piercing.

Even wielding an ordinary iron spear, his indomitable spirit still burned fiercely. It wasn't that he was a born warrior, but simply because he had experienced it. He had fought against the two-star blood wolf and the black-robed witch, so he knew that retreating was pointless and that he had to hold on!

"Ouch!"

Both mutated blood wolves stared intently at Li Wei, pouncing on him from the left and right. They still remembered Li Wei; this was a case of sworn enemies meeting again, their eyes blazing with hatred!

But Li Wei was fearless and even quickened his pace, forcing Clyde and Leon to speed up as well. Especially the former, who was holding a small round shield and had to withstand a blood wolf to avoid making a mistake. Otherwise, if both wolves pounced on Li Wei at the same time, it would be difficult to avoid making a mistake!

Lyon, on the other hand, is slightly behind. What kind of tactic could this be?
In an instant, Clyde used his small round shield to block the attack of a blood wolf on the left, while Li Wei fearlessly clashed with another blood wolf on the right.

Neither of them dodged!
Li Wei's iron spear successfully pierced the Blood Wolf's chest and abdomen, and the Blood Wolf also successfully pounced on Li Wei to the ground, biting down on his throat!

But Li Wei skillfully let go, using his left arm to protect his throat. Before the blood wolf could bite through his leather armor, his right hand had already drawn a boning dagger with lightning speed, stabbing it precisely into the blood wolf's heart in one strike.

There's no way around it, it's path-dependent!
As the ancients said, practice makes perfect!

At the same time, Sophie and Old John launched simultaneously from behind!
Sophie shot at the blood wolf confronting Clyde; the crossbow bolt hit the wolf's hind leg—a first-shot hit, congratulations!

Old John, however, set his sights on the black-robed witch who was chanting; he was planning something big.

With his three-star hunter precision, there was no problem, but the dim night made him overlook the sky, and he also ignored Li Wei's previous warning. After all, a witch chanting a spell looked easy to bully.

But just as he was about to draw his bow and shoot, a large crow swooped down from the sky and plucked out his left eyeball with one claw.

Precise, stable, and ruthless!

Old John hurriedly let go, and the arrow flew off somewhere, and he screamed in agony.

At the same time, the black-robed witch on the hill suddenly stopped chanting. That's right, her chanting could only control the giant raven to carry out precise sniping, which was also a sniping kill with centimeter-level accuracy.

Timing, speed, and angle are all essential!

The next moment, the black-robed witch suddenly took out a sphere that looked like a crystal ball and threw it at Clyde, who was fighting against the blood wolf.

There's nothing we can do; the situation on the field right now is just that clear.

Li Wei has been pounced on by the Blood Wolf and appears to be nearing the end of his life.

She didn't witness this scene last time; back then, she almost collapsed because the giant crow was shot to death by Li Wei.

Therefore, Clyde, who was able to fight the snow wolf to a standstill, was actually stronger. In fact, Clyde was very strong. He could use his small round shield to defend against the blood wolf's pounce while also managing to execute several lightning-fast longsword thrusts. His combat skills were exceptionally strong.

As the crystal ball was thrown down, the black-robed witch's chanting resumed, and the crystal ball, as if guided, headed straight for Clyde.

However, Clyde was also quite skilled; in that instant, he quickly raised his shield and blocked the strange crystal ball...

"Boom!" Ice and snow erupted, and the cold air raged. No one knew that such terrifying cold air was hidden in this crystal ball, as if the snow mountain had been transported here.

Clyde was neither frozen into an ice sculpture nor frozen to death.

But his whole body was covered with a layer of frost, as if he had been stripped naked and thrown into an ice hole in the dead of winter.

He was instantly frozen so badly that he shivered, could barely hold his small round shield, and his jaw clenched, completely losing his ability to fight.

Just as the wounded blood wolf was about to bite off his head, the wolf's head suddenly shot into the air and was severed in two! Filthy blood sprayed all over Clyde's head, face, and body…

It was Leon who finally seized the opportunity to fight, and he was cunning, showing his loyalty and desire to rescue Li Wei while keeping Clyde at bay.

At the same time, he hid behind the snow wolf and Clyde, cleverly blocking the black-robed witch's line of sight.

That's why he was able to stand out at this moment, seize the opportunity, and sever the head of this two-star ferocious beast with a single strike.

At this moment, the black-robed witch on the hill finally turned pale!

really,

Gamblers, gamblers, in the end, they lose everything!
This is the gambling addict's law!
"Come die!"

Lyon made a great contribution with his sword, and immediately charged towards the witch on the hill. How could he miss such a great opportunity to capture and kill the enemy leader? After all, this was a huge contribution. Overtaking that damned George was just around the corner!

The next second, the black-robed witch threw out another crystal ball. As she chanted, it precisely locked onto Leon, who was trying to escape. But it was no use; unless you could dodge it in advance and accelerate wildly, it was difficult to avoid.

"boom!"

Lyon was frozen stiff, looking like a quail.

Just then, Sophie saw an opportunity. She drew two daggers and, without a word, chased after him at top speed. As a professional warrior whose agility attribute had reached level one awakening, and a veteran player who had survived the chaotic battlefield, she was certainly capable of fighting. In the blink of an eye, she moved like a blur, passing Leon, who was frozen like a quail, and was about to seize her moment of glory.

Yes, the black-robed witch no longer has a mount, and the chanting and control of two crystal balls in succession seems to have made her a little tired, while I, the gambling dog Sophie, have full stamina and am in peak condition!
You bitch, take this!

At that very moment, the black-robed witch suddenly smiled faintly, reached into her black robe, and pulled out a straight, narrow rapier! She stepped forward and delivered a near-perfect lunge thrust, causing Sophie to lose her composure and nearly lose her footing.

But it was no use. The black-robed witch's swordsmanship was simply at its peak. Her advances and retreats showed the style of a master!
In a few swift movements, he easily stabbed Sophie's right wrist, and then pierced her throat with a sword!
It's a pity that Sophie, in the prime of her life, full of youthful vigor and ambition, fell from grace just as she was at the height of her talent and ambition.

Don't rest your eyes!

"Ahhh!"

Clyde roared, and at the same time, Li Wei also overturned the mutated blood wolf. Even though the beast was stabbed in the heart, it was still incredibly strong and held on for a while. In the end, in such a short time, Sophie died in battle!

He saw with his own eyes that a blue light spot on Sophie's body was absorbed by the black-robed witch; it was one of Sophie's professional cards!

Then, she smiled at Li Weiyan and left quickly, without lingering for a moment!
However, the bandits below were still chasing after them. At this point, Li Wei and his men did not dare to linger in the fight. They grabbed Old John, who was still howling, and dragged Lion, who was still chanting "Dororo, the cold wind is freezing me to death, tomorrow I'll build a nest!"
With the recovered Clyde covering their rear, the four of them didn't even need to worry about Sophie's body, or rather, they didn't need to, because a cloud of gray mist surged in and swept away all her weapons and equipment along with her body.

After all, she wasn't really dead, but the loss was quite significant!

However, for families, the losses are also quite significant.

The only good news is that, so far, despite one death and one injury on their side, there has been no information to condemn Li Wei.

However, no matter what, as the head of the team and the head of the family, he also has responsibilities.

If we really have to nitpick...

The bandits below were splitting up to intercept them, while the large crows in the sky were still flapping their wings and flying high, frequently relaying Li Wei's and the others' location. The black-robed witch hadn't gone far; she was difficult to deal with and even more powerful than they had imagined.

Fortunately, the rapid freezing state created by the crystal ball is not long-lasting, and the person recovers in less than thirty seconds.

Clyde and Lyon recovered their strength one after the other, but old John was missing an eye and was nearly seriously injured. After being pulled away by Li Wei for a distance, he suddenly whispered, "George, that big raven has a plague in its claws. I have been infected with the level two blood plague and I can't hold on. I'm sorry, I can't be a burden to you. Please get out of the encirclement quickly. We'll meet again if fate allows!"

Before Li Wei could react, Old John decisively severed his own meridians!
day!
Li Wei, Clyde, and Leon were all horrified, yet they also found it quite reasonable. Old John, having lost an eye, was no longer a formidable fighter. Coupled with the blood plague infection, this was unlike what had happened to Clyde and Li Wei, where it was merely a matter of blood getting into his eye. He was severely injured, bleeding profusely, and the blood plague had already spread throughout his body.

It's worth mentioning that Clyde was unharmed, thanks to the herbal medicine he drank before his departure.

As Old John vanished into a cloud of gray mist, only an iron spear, a recurve bow, two quivers, and a fine steel dagger remained in his place.

Li Wei quickly picked them up, putting those that could be put in his backpack and hanging those that could be hung on it; in short, you can never have too many weapons.
