Chapter 94 Battle Against the Fishmen (Part 1)

Richard first cast a Dark Element Shield on himself. Since the three members of the Ring of Nors were also present, he deliberately cast the Dark Element Shield, which could be cast in one second, three times in total.

It was indeed three times, not three seconds. Two failed, and the last one was a forced success. Each time, the incantation took three seconds to cast.

This made Jenna and her two companions, the red-haired girls from the North Ring, look on with utter contempt!

Meanwhile, Ophelia and Andrea, standing nearby, were practically bursting into laughter, their faces flushed red! Richard was just too cunning!

However, Richard didn't think so. If he knew that his two teammates were evaluating him like that, he would definitely refute them loudly to clear his name. How could that be called insidious? That's called strategic deception!

In case these three from the Ring of North really do have malicious intentions, we should at least be on guard.

After feigning donning the dark element shield, Richard tucked the Bone Summoning Staff into his waistband, grabbed the giant bow from behind him, and immediately began unleashing a multi-shot attack.

So, three steel arrows were fired at the murloc group in quick succession.

Instantly, a piercing, sharp sound cut through the air, sounding the alarm for the entire surprise attack.

Richard used to have difficulty drawing the Shadow Hunter's Great Bow to its full extent, but with his breakthrough to the formal knight level and continuous meditation practice, his physical abilities have improved, and now he can wield it with ease.

This immediately made the red-haired trio look at Richard with new respect, especially Jenna, who immediately thought, "Hmm! This kid really has some skills. I thought he was a main summoner and secondary archer, but now it seems he's a main archer and secondary summoner."

No wonder Ophelia wanted him to be her teammate. His strengths in defense and Ophelia's strengths complemented each other perfectly. Now I understand!

Although Ophelia, Andrea, and the red-haired girl from the Ring of North also began to shoot.

But the combined results of the other men were not as good as Richard's shooting speed, accuracy, and number of shots!

Richard's arrows rained down, and ordinary merman warriors were constantly killed by Richard's arrows.

The short girl Brandy felt her heart bleed as she watched, inwardly cursing Richard for shooting so accurately!

Jenna and Mijat were speechless when they saw this. Although they had agreed before they started, everyone would gang up on the high-level murloc warriors and kill the other murloc warriors by themselves.

But the result now is that you alone have almost wiped out all the other ordinary murloc warriors!

This is like you eating all the meat yourself, while everyone else can only drink the soup!

So, the three members of the North Ring all had the same thought in mind: they had to take down Richard later, before the enemy team recorded their results into the mission crystal.

Otherwise, the points earned from killing a large number of ordinary murloc warriors will be lost.

Jenna thought the same thing. Through her short observation, she had discovered that Richard, this first-level wizard apprentice, although not very good at witchcraft, was a sharpshooter and a specialist in summoning.

If we don't eliminate this kind of person before we make our move, keeping them around will only make things more difficult.

Moreover, the opponent should be the firepower of Ophelia's squad. After taking him down, even if Ophelia and the mid-level knight have strong defenses, they will have no chance to turn the tide and will be slaughtered by them sooner or later.

However, there are always two sides to everything. Richard's rapid-fire multiple arrows were so powerful and conspicuous that they were extremely dangerous.

As a result, almost all the fishmen's attention is now focused on him.

This made Ophelia and Andrea, who were standing nearby, quite worried!

Especially the tallest of them all, the steel-forked fishman Braca, roared furiously and led his many subordinates straight at Richard and his group.

Why didn't the murlocs retaliate with ranged attacks? That's because of the previous thirty-odd murloc warriors, only three or four carried bows and arrows, and they were all killed by Richard's multi-shot attack at the very beginning.

Therefore, Blaka now has no choice but to launch a melee charge, otherwise he will continue to be a sitting duck for Richard and the others!

Upon seeing that Richard alone had attracted the attention of all the high-end combatants of the fishmen, the three red-haired girls were secretly pleased and gradually began to reduce their firing rate, intending to watch the show.

The short girl, in particular, gave a mocking look, implying, "Look how happy you were shooting just now, now I'm going to make you die."

Richard saw the steel fork merman warrior and the four dual-wielding merman warriors charging fiercely towards him, but he wasn't in a hurry to run away.

Instead, he calmly took out a tube of Fire Dance Star from his pocket.

"Tch! I thought it was some kind of trump card, what good is a single Fire Dance Star!" Jenna glanced at it and scoffed.

I thought they must have some trump card up their sleeve, and I'd love to see it, but it turned out to be just this.

Then, another tube.

"Two tubes aren't much use!" The short girl Brandy was slightly taken aback when she saw it, but she also spat out a word.

Three tubes

Four tubes

Five tubes

At this point, the three people from the Ring of North had fallen silent.

The tall, thin boy, Mijat, grew increasingly angry, cursing inwardly, "I only brought two alchemical bombs, are you selling them wholesale?!"

The three of them were speechless as they looked at Richard, who had five full tubes of Fire Dance Star and five packs of Silver Moon Dust in his hand.

However, Jenna thought about it again and smiled broadly. It seemed that he was from a wealthy family, either a nobleman or the son of a big merchant. Otherwise, as a first-level wizard apprentice, who would believe that he earned it himself?

It seems I have another reason to get started, especially since I've been spending quite a bit on experimental materials lately.

It would be best if this rich kid used up all his alchemical bombs now, so it would save us trouble when we dealt with him later.

Richard simply bundled a bunch of alchemical bombs together and threw them forcefully at the charging steel fork fishmen and the few dual-wielding fishmen!

When Blaca saw the object flying from the sky, he instinctively used his harpoon to forcefully slash it away.

But the moment it was struck, it sensed something was wrong!

A deafening "BOOM!" resounded, like a thunderclap, the booming explosion echoing throughout the entire underground river.

In an instant, dust and smoke billowed up from the explosion.

After the smoke cleared, not a single ordinary merman warrior remained; they were all lying dead.

The steel fork merman warrior and the four dual-wielding merman warriors were charred black all over, and they walked unsteadily. The fish scales on their bodies, no matter what color they were before, had now turned black.

He transformed from a blind warrior into an African fish-man warrior.
