She is truly a rich lady, as she can make the teleportation tool so compact.
Even the value of just one ring like this is enough to buy everything they have.
Then he continued.
"After we return, I will give you a reward on behalf of the family. Thank me."
"Yes Yes."
Although he agreed with Eve's words, Elend's eyes were already fixed on the bushes behind them.
Now that we know what good stuff the other party has, it's time to take action. Thinking of this, Elend's eyes turned from flattering to cold in an instant.
But what he didn't know was that Eve's reminder had already arrived in due time during the communication between Eve and the others...
"The other party is about to take action, pay attention."
boom--
With a crisp sound, a small ball fell from behind Elend, and then a thick smoke exploded, enveloping Eve and her group. Elend covered his mouth and nose and flew out of the smoke. He took out a thick cloth from his arms and covered his mouth.
This smoke has a certain paralyzing effect. Once inhaled, the body will become uncontrollable. It is an excellent item for sneak attacks. Once inhaled, the person will be at the mercy of others.
At the moment when the smoke erupted, Elend's team members covered their mouths and noses with wet cloths, drew their weapons and surrounded them in a semi-encirclement.
"Tsk."
But Elend, who was closest to the smoke, made a sound and then took the lead in attacking the smoke.
clang--
I saw that the light shield that had previously blocked the monster's sneak attack had appeared at some point and was quietly protecting the four people inside, blocking the spread of smoke, which also meant that the first wave of sneak attacks had failed.
§19 Playing
"What are you going to do?!"
As the smoke dispersed, the young lady who was hiding under the protection of the barrier seemed a little panicked by this sudden change, but she still pretended to be calm and questioned Elend in front of her. However, the panic in her eyes had already betrayed her.
"Isn't it obvious what you're going to do, miss?"
As he spoke, Elend swung the sword in his hand again at the barrier in front of him, attracting the attention of several people.
"Hmph, I guess I misjudged you."
After looking at Elend in front of her with some resentment, Eve began to chant the magic spell. Relying on the protection of the barrier, she had enough time to complete the magic, but at this moment, a black shadow holding a strange short staff jumped out from behind them.
The black shadow was the guy who had left earlier under the pretext of going back to collect herbs. At some point, he had quietly gone around behind Eve and the others, and the people who were protected by magic props also ignored the defense behind them.
General——
Looking at the magic barrier that suddenly shattered in front of him, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Elend's mouth.
The magic item in the team member's hand was a magic prop for defensive magic. It was very expensive and not many people would choose to make it. After all, this kind of thing was too restraining for those weak magicians. Once other magicians knew that he was making this kind of thing, it would probably attract others' targeting.
But after all, where there is demand, there is output. When every magician carries a trigger-type defensive item to protect himself, there will always be people who choose to make it for profit, and this thing can be regarded as one of the props that must be prepared when dealing with magicians.
Originally, this thing was prepared for the elves, but now it is no longer feasible to continue going to the elves, so it is better to use it to catch these big fish.
Although it may not be as good as what you get from catching an elf, the things on these rich ladies should not be underestimated, and their prices should not be bad either.
Putting aside other things, I wonder how much that ring-shaped teleportation ring could be sold for, not to mention the four beautiful girls involved?
Look, they are all shaking with fear and can't even chant the spell, right?
Looking at Eve who opened her mouth in surprise because the defensive magic was lifted, Elend felt even more proud.
If he could finish chanting the magic in this sudden change, maybe he could gain some opportunities, but now there was no need for him to rush forward and interrupt her chanting.
In Elend's opinion, the people in front of him were already in his pocket. He even regretted why he didn't take action earlier. It seemed that he was too sensitive this time. What kind of trouble could these little girls cause?
Quickly knock them out and take them away. The things prepared for the elves can come in handy. It is not advisable to stay in a dangerous place like the Blue Sky Forest for a long time.
But if Elend knew the intention of the man responsible for the sneak attack, he would not be so confident, because he vaguely felt that the barrier in front of him seemed to be broken by itself, rather than the effect of the prop in his hand.
But looking at the broken barrier, he felt that it was just an illusion, so without thinking too much, he took out his gun and prepared to knock out these young ladies.
After listening to their condescending orders all the way, it can finally be over.
But just as he took another step forward, he suddenly stepped into a big pit that appeared out of nowhere.
He could swear on his life and property that there was absolutely no such big pit there just now. What was even more embarrassing was the depth and shape of the pit. It was as deep as three meters, and it was not until he fell in that he discovered that the pit was actually in the shape of an inverted funnel. Now, at least there was no hope for him to climb out by himself.
Seeing the men responsible for the sneak attack suddenly disappear, and hearing the cries for help coming from under his feet, Elend could no longer hold back. This development was too dramatic.
Was that guy blind? How could he not notice a pit so deep he could fall right into it? Even if a sneak attack could have been successful in one step, there's no need for that, right? Even the most inexperienced novice wouldn't make such a stupid mistake, right? Were these truly his elite troops?
If the young ladies in front of him hadn't still looked panicked, he would have thought it was a good thing they had done.
Well, forget it. It will just be them doing it themselves, and the result will be the same.
As for that idiot, let him stay there for a while and see if he dares to be so careless next time.
At this time, in the communication between Eve and others, Melshia was looking at the man who fell into the deep pit and couldn't stop laughing. She had to pretend to be panicked on the one hand, but laughed happily on the other hand. It was really difficult to control.
"Eve, how did you come up with this idea to deal with this guy?"
Needless to say, the big pit just now was naturally Eve's work, and the guy who attacked them from behind was under her surveillance from beginning to end.
After discovering that the other party had taken out a prop that could destroy the defensive magic, Eve cooperated and pretended that the magic was destroyed and removed the barrier. Then she quietly waved her fingertips and used magic to dig a big pit behind them, waiting for the other party to come.
Thanks to the thick layer of dead branches and leaves in the forest, the sudden large hole was well hidden and was not discovered until the other party stepped into it, but it was too late.
After all, in order to take them down as quickly as possible, the opponent also used all his strength, and the consequences of stepping on empty air at this time are naturally needless to say, it was a perfect entry into the hole.
Well, even if the other party didn't enter the hole directly, Eve would secretly widen the hole a little more.
"Hehe, it was just a sudden inspiration."
Facing Melxia's surprise, Eve said proudly.
"Okay, let me tease these guys again."
"Ok!"
At this time, Elend, who had recovered from the attacker's accidental fall into the pit, also began to persuade Eve and others to surrender.
"Just give up resistance, ladies. This way you'll suffer less. You won't have the chance to use magic at such a close distance."
But Eve's first reaction after hearing Elend's words was.
Ah! There it is! That classic villain line! Whenever a villain says this, all sorts of unexpected things always happen. It's almost like the law of cause and effect.
As for the present, although we don’t know if there will be any accidents, the little white rabbits will not be able to escape if they transform into big bad wolves.
However, based on the needs of her character and the mentality of having more fun, Eve still said the most classic speech at this time.
"Hmph! Don't think I'm afraid of you! Look at my magic!"
Thus began this playful battle.
§20 An unexpected event occurs?
"Hmph! Don't think I'm afraid of you! Look at my magic!"
As Eve pretended to chant magic again, Istina cooperated and stood in front of her, pretending to cover her and help her complete the spell.
"what."
But in response to their resistance, Elend just sneered, then waved his hand casually, signaling his men to throw something over to interrupt the other party's spellcasting process.
Although he could choose to go up and knock the other person unconscious since he was the closest to them, it would be bad if he accidentally hurt these little faces when they resisted. After all, swords have no eyes, and even a few scratches would be a blasphemy to these beautiful faces that seemed to be carved by gods.
"Miss be careful!"
Looking at the paralyzing smoke balls thrown at them, Istina lightly grasped them. Then, a beautiful rapier like a rainbow appeared in her hand. With her exquisite control, she guided the small balls to deviate from their previous trajectory and fall to the side, preventing the paralyzing smoke from exploding around them.
"Hey, you're a contractor of a weapon spirit, so I should be more serious."
Looking at the rapier that appeared out of thin air in Istina's hand, Elend instantly understood her identity.
In addition to a genius magician, there is actually a person who is proficient in both magic and martial arts. This is really a pleasant surprise, and I can sell it for a higher price.
Although the upper limit of this type of people is often quite touching and they may be general but not specialized, but among the lower-level combat forces, those who practice both magic and martial arts can be said to be the absolute overlords, and if they are trained properly, it is not impossible for them to become a strong man.
Thinking of this, Elend also summoned his weapon spirit - a pitch-black spear that gleamed coldly in the sunlight. The tip of the spear was not made of normal metal, but was condensed from pitch-black flames. Just a slight touch, and the dead branches piled on the ground turned into ashes in an instant. The speed was so fast that the fire could not even spread.
As the spear appeared, a two-headed dog, burning with the same dark flames as the spear tip, as if it had walked out of purgatory, quietly appeared beside Elend. It lowered its body, growled, and stared at the direction of Eve and her group, as if it would pounce on them without hesitation and tear their bodies apart with its sharp teeth as long as Elend gave the order.
As the person responsible for leading the team through the Azure Forest and sneaking into the territory of the elves, Elend naturally has strong strength. The attributes of his weapon elf have a certain restraining effect on the elves who use natural magic.
"Young ladies, it's best to surrender quickly. Otherwise, if you get burned, your fate may be much more tragic."
The spear in his hand made a gun flower that brought up little black flames in the air. Elend looked at the few people with a smile and threatened them again.
If possible, he wanted to avoid direct combat as much as possible. After all, every time he hit these young ladies, he would feel that the gold coins that originally belonged to him were growing wings and flying away.
"Hmph! Don't even think about it! Flame."
"Ha, a dying struggle."
After hesitating for so long, he actually thought the other party was going to use some powerful magic, but it turned out to be just an ordinary first-level small flame.
Ha, although the power of magic is affected by some factors, how powerful can a small flame be? Even if he stood still, it was unknown whether this small flame could burn through the leather armor on his body.
However, the next second, a huge fireball engulfed Elend entirely, causing the others to exclaim in surprise.
"head?!"
brush--
With a flash of black light, the fireball was directly split into two, revealing Elend's figure again, which made his team members breathe a sigh of relief. They were scared because they thought their captain was going to have an accident. It seems that their captain is more skilled than them.
But then everyone's expressions became a little subtle, because although Elend was not injured at this time, he was in a rather miserable state. Not only were there obvious burnt marks on his face, but a lot of his thick hair was also burned off, looking uneven.
I can only say that this fire is indeed not very harmful, but it is also very insulting.
"You guy..."
Staring at the people in front of him with gritted teeth, Elend now wished he could just shoot each of these little girls unconscious. These guys, these guys actually dared to tease him like this!
How long had it been since he became famous? He was so embarrassed today. What would others think of him when he got home?
Thinking of this, Elend glanced coldly at the people around him and said.
"Keep everything that happened today to yourself, remember?"
"Yes Yes."
Seeing Elend suppressing his anger, the others were suddenly silent and quickly agreed.
"Come on, catch them. Just don't hurt that little face."
Then Elend swung his spear and gave the order.
The flames from his spear would cause burns too easily, so it would be better to just use the advantage of numbers to overwhelm him.
"Yes!"
But at this moment, a wall of fire suddenly appeared, blocking the two teams.
"Hmph, you've fallen into my trap! Goodbye, you bunch of guys!"
"not good!"
In an instant, Elend realized that he had underestimated these young ladies and had actually forgotten that they could activate the teleportation tool to leave.
Although it usually takes some time to activate teleportation magic items, the time spent chanting the magic and the turmoil caused by the flames are enough to complete the activation.
As a result, he was tricked again. Thinking of this, Elend immediately gripped the spear tightly in his hand and smashed it down suddenly, dispersing the wall of fire in front of him, and saw several people who had been enveloped by the precursor light of teleportation.
The eldest lady even took the time to make a face at him, which made Elend's blood pressure soar.
On her finger, the teleportation ring was emitting a dazzling light, as if mocking his underestimation of the enemy.
The most infuriating part was that Elende knew it was too late for him to stop the other party, unless something unexpected happened to interrupt their transmission, such as a random natural disaster in Biluo.
