Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 270 Stone Blind Barbarians
The fierce battle had just ended, and Thorne took advantage of his recovery time to sit and chat with Anderina among the fungus shimmering with light blue fluorescent light, enjoying a moment of tranquility.

"The setting sun is the end of the world, but I have lost the direction of home, because I have never seen the afterglow of the setting sun." Andelina leaned half on Thorn's shoulder, and gently took apart the thousand paper cranes in her hand, After seeing the message on Thousand Paper Cranes, he sighed slightly inwardly.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, almost primitive savage roars came from the goblin wizard Malvisa, interrupting their conversation.

Thorne's expression froze, and he immediately raised the Demon Slayer sword that he had thrust upside down in front of him, and took Anderina's hand and moved towards his teammates.

"What's going on?" Thorn led Anderina quickly to Malvisa, glanced at the roaring shadow in the darkness, and asked in a deep voice.

"What else could be going on? Our paladin teammates found a group of patrolling underground monsters. No, we are going to purify them angrily." Malvisa glanced at the black dragon driving the dragon blood lizard. Shadow paladin Peo.

Upon hearing this, Thorne immediately set his sights on the direction where the paladin Peo was fighting.

In the open area not far ahead, a group of savage and almost primitive humanoid creatures appeared. Through the flickering light of the fungus, he could clearly observe the appearance characteristics of the other party.

This is a humanoid creature with thick gray scales and no eyes. It is muscular and muscular. It holds a crude stone ax and a bone stick in its hand, and an apron made of dire rat fur is wrapped around its waist.

Stone blind barbarians!

A cannibal race gradually formed from the degeneration of ordinary humans. Their ancestors worshiped mind flayers for generations and followed them to fight in the Underdark, and eventually evolved into a blind and burly cannibal monster.

Although stone-blind barbarians have no vision, they can rely on their keen sense of smell and hearing to locate nearby enemies.

"boom!"

Accompanied by the dragon blood lizard's charge, an eyeless man who hadn't reacted was sent flying a distance of more than ten meters with the crackling sound of bones breaking, and then fell heavily on the ground, leaving only a slightly undulating chest. Obviously not alive.

"Pfft! Pfft!"

Immediately afterwards, the dragon-born paladin who was good at riding and fighting condescendingly waved the long sword shining with sacred light in his hand.Two cold lights flashed, and the bright red blood splashed in the fungus bushes. The two eyeless big men let out an unwilling roar, their sturdy bodies shook a few times, and fell to the ground on their backs.

"boom!"

When the two stone-blind barbarians fell down, the dragon blood lizard under the paladin was not idle. First, it swung its thick and scaly tail and knocked away an enemy who was sneaking up from behind wielding a stone axe. .

Then he leaped vigorously, his huge body seemed to be pressing down on the top of Mount Tai, and the two marble pillar-like forelimbs pressed down the stone blind man who was charging forward, and his powerful jaws took advantage of the situation to tear the stone blind man's neck.

The dragon blood lizard neighed again, turned around abruptly, and pounced on the last stone blind man who was blown away by its tail.

When the dragon blood lizard approached, the paladin Peo who was riding on him took the opportunity to swing his sharp blade, and an ugly eyeless head flew into the dust.

A clean and neat battle ended like this.

But an accident happened...

The paladin Pao dealt with the five stone-blind barbarians extremely quickly, but the huge movement attracted all of these sharp-hearing stone-blind barbarians.

In the shadow leading to the fungal forest, a large number of eyeless men covered with thick gray scales appeared. They all raised the stone axes and bone sticks in their hands, and roared like beasts from their throats, towards the paladin who controlled the dragon blood lizard. Peo went around.

"Kuteg, prepare to support the paladins!" Thorn looked at the nearly a hundred stone blind barbarians appearing in the darkness, frowned, and immediately ordered the orc sword master who was on guard.

When the orc sword master heard Thorne's words, he rushed up with his sword without hesitation.

At the same time, Master Qingchen standing on the other side also took out an emerald green holly branch, and began to cast divine spells to support the attack of the paladin Peo.

"My spells are almost used up today, so please take care of yourself." The goblin wizard Malvisa glanced boredly, left a word, and then led the wolf back a few steps, remaining silent.

——"Three-ring spell: Fireball!"

——"Spell-like ability: Fireball!"

Seeing the goblin wizard backing away, Thorne and Anderina exchanged glances, and immediately condensed two dark red fireballs dancing in the darkness.

"Boom!"

Two dark red fireballs whizzed and sank into the places where the stone blinds were most concentrated. The roar of the explosion pierced the silent darkness, drowning a large group of violent stone blinds in the swirling fresh soil.

The violent fireball directly caused thirty or forty casualties in the group of stone blind savages, almost reducing the number by one-third.

"Roar!"

At this time, a wild and angry roar sounded in the smoke of the fireball.

As soon as the roar fell, a stone-blind man with tangled muscles and a body nearly three meters high swung a powerful and heavy ax in his hand. The paladins who were fighting blindly slashed at the head.

"boom!"

The huge ax hit the steel shield that the paladin was blocking, and the turbulent force instantly surged all over his body. With the mournful cry of the dragon blood lizard under him, the paladin Peo was directly thrown into the air by the strong force, and fell to the ground hard. superior.

Through the flickering fungus bushes, one can find his dragon face, which is hard to see any expression. The fine scales become distorted, and the left hand holding the shield hangs down weakly, and the shield is also knocked five or six meters away from the body. , the right hand holding the sword struggled hard, but still couldn't stand up.

Master Qingchen, who was casting divine spells to support the orc sword master, saw the paladin Peo who was thrown flying out, and Shi Blinman's men who rushed over to make up the knife, his expression changed, and he immediately rushed towards the paladin .

"The barbarians have been successfully appointed. It seems that they should be the patriarch of this group of stone-blind barbarians." Thorn retracted the compound longbow and took out the long sword again.

More than 100 Stone Blind Man gathered again in the smoke of the fireball, and surrounded the orc sword master and dragon blood lizard.

In the current situation, it is difficult to kill them all with their remaining strength, so the only way is to kill the most threatening leader first.

Thorn first glanced at the crouching dragon beast prostrate on the ground to keep vigilant, then turned to Anderina who cast the spell and said, "Be careful yourself."

After finishing speaking, he fixed his gaze directly on the stone-blind barbarian patriarch, then clenched his long sword tightly and took a deep breath.

——"Desert Wind Faction (Strike Skill): Flame Wing Charge!"

The moment the skill was activated, wings blazing with flames stretched out from behind him, and then his whole body was enveloped in bright flames, turning into a dazzling flame, rushing to the sky, and turning the entire space red.

"Roar!"

The berserk stone-blind barbarian patriarch swung his huge ax and attacked the dragon blood lizard frantically, a stream of blood splashed, accompanied by the screams of the dragon blood lizard back and forth, the scales covering its whole body were full of shocking bloodstains.

Just as the patriarch of the stone-blind savage was about to launch the final blow to the dragon blood lizard, killing the summoned projection mount.

Suddenly, his keen sense of smell and hearing sensed a wave of hot air and the crackling sound of burning flames.

Thorn, who charged from the mid-air, precisely locked the stone blind barbarian patriarch who was ravaging the dragon blood lizard.

——"Lifting Qi and Slashing!"

When the scorching charge was about to approach, the flaming long sword he held firmly in his hand was suddenly covered with a layer of almost invisible energy of energy, wrapped in scorching flames and the piercing sound of piercing the air, he raised the giant ax Block the stone-blind barbarian patriarch's fierce attack.

"Crack!"

The sharp blade collided with the giant axe, and the handle of the axe, which could not bear the force, was split into two, followed by the scorching blade, supported by the fierce sword energy, splitting the stone-blind barbarian patriarch's entire body like cutting tofu. The hardest skull in the body.

"boom!"

Thorn drew out his long sword and kicked the stone-blind barbarian patriarch's body flying out.

——"Scary momentum!"

Sensing more than a dozen enemies besieging him with rough weapons, Thorne moved his mind, and the suffocating murderous aura immediately enveloped all the enemies within the range.

Looking at the trembling eyeless man, Thorn drew out another dagger from his waist, and swung the double blades wrapped in flames in a dazzling dance of death. The scorching light of the sword flashed frequently in the darkness. The besieged blind men fell to the ground and died one after another.

Immediately afterwards, Thorne stood on the spot and took a deep breath, calming down his ups and downs. Although the power of the "Qi Lifting Slash" is very powerful, it also consumes a lot of energy. With his current ability, he can use his full strength two or three times at most before falling into the trap. state of weakness.

Afterwards, he recovered a little, and immediately joined the battle on the side of the orc sword master.

"Pfft!"

Thorn, who joined the battle, swung his sword and stabbed to death an eyeless man who was trying to sneak attack Kutaig. He glanced at the enemy who surrounded the two of them, but was too timid to approach him. Sheng smiled and said, "Are you confident to kill them all?"

"No problem!" Kutaige's sharp eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked coldly at the remaining 50 stone blind man.

--"violent!"

——"The strength is surging!"

——"Lifting Qi and Slashing!"

——"Whirlwind attack!"

Accompanied by the crackling sound of bones all over the body of the orc sword master, his already very burly body was lifted up again, and then with a low growl, he swung his long sword and rushed towards the cowering stone-blind savage group.

Among the enemy group, the long sword wielded by the orc sword master formed an invisible blade wind, and the sharp blade quickly spread to the surroundings. Shocking bloodstains suddenly appeared all over the gathered stone blind man. The encirclement was also torn apart.

Seeing Kutaig who had already attacked first, Thorne didn't dare to delay, because he knew that the high-intensity group attack of the opponent would not last long.

——"Desert Wind Sect (Stance Skill): Flame Art!"

So with a thought, the barrier of flames enveloped him, and the heat wave swept the area around him, bursting out bursts of scorching breath. All the stone blind barbarians who were besieging him wailed as they approached the barrier of flames, and immediately moved away. The burning range of the flame.

But Thorne naturally wouldn't let them go easily. As long as these stone-blind savages hadn't advanced into barbarians, their creature level would be around level 3 at most. Without the blessing of flame resistance, they couldn't hold back the continuous burning of the flames.

In just a moment, a large number of eyeless men who were burned by the flames lay on the ground and howled.

"Madman!" The goblin wizard Malvisa, who was watching the battle not far away, looked at the figure shrouded in flames, the light red eyes hidden in the pointed hat fluctuated a few times, and couldn't help whispering to herself.

"He gains experience from killing to increase his level, and if he continues, will there be any problems?"

Anderina, who had already stopped, heard the muttering of the goblin wizard, looked at the figure of Thorn slaughtering the enemy, a look of worry flashed across her face, and then turned to ask her.

"As long as you maintain the most perfect advancement, there will be no problems." The goblin wizard replied, then stretched out his small hand to stroke the soft hair of the warg, and said with emotion: "But that is the most perfect advancement after all. , if it were really that easy, I wouldn't have kept level 4 forever."

Anderina breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Thorne once told her that she must always maintain the most perfect advancement to improve her strength, and then turned her attention to the battle scene again.

"Pfft!"

A cold light flashed across the scorching blade, and an ugly human head flew into the dust. Thorne suppressed the flames all over his body, and stared coldly at the remaining dozen or so stone blind barbarians.

Although the big eyeless men had no vision, they could keenly smell the strong smell of blood and the sound of blood flowing from a headless corpse in front of them.

In the end, the cowering eyeless men finally couldn't bear the pressure, dropped their weapons one after another, screamed in terror and disappeared into the darkness.

Looking at the fleeing enemy, Thorne did not choose to chase after him, but let out a sigh of relief. After gradually relaxing his tense nerves, his whole body suddenly became sore and weak, feeling a little shaky.

After all, from entering this underground ruins to now, there have been three battles, and his physical strength and Qi energy are almost exhausted.

Especially the one with the Ratman was the most thrilling, and one could lose one's life if one was not careful.

"Are you alright?" Thorn asked, looking down at Kurtiger, who was in the aftermath of the rage.

"It's nothing serious, it won't affect our journey, but I suggest we find a place to rest, after all, this place is full of unknown threats." The orc sword master stood up with difficulty leaning on his long sword, and said seriously.

"I think so too." Thorne smiled, showing a trace of fatigue.

After finishing speaking, he met Andrina who was rushing over. Since he could move freely with the remaining physical strength, he stubbornly refused the sorceress' support, but walked towards the goblin wizard with her.

"Thorn, tell me what we should do now?" Malvisa, who was riding a wolf, finished speaking, and looked helplessly at the seriously injured paladin lying on the back of the dragonblood lizard. Impulsiveness will not attract so many stone blind enemies.

"There is a well-preserved ruin in the north. Let's go there and find a hidden place to rest. We will make plans after everyone recovers." Thorne pointed to a large ruined building in the north.

After all, they encountered tauren, marsh bears, dark elves and stone blind barbarians here.This made him realize that this place is not just an underground ruin, it may have been connected to the Underdark region long ago, so everything here must be treated with caution.

"Yes, that's the decision." Master Qingchen nodded calmly.

"Then let's go." The goblin wizard waved his hand, driving the wolf to open the way ahead.

The group slowly disappeared into the darkness.
