Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 500 Dragon Power
Seeing the paladin in front of him nodding his head so readily, Thorn, who was sitting on the ground, relaxed.

To be honest, in his opinion, for a fourth-tier professional whose strength has reached the exemplary way to obey his dispatch and command, for this slightly rude request, he actually didn't have much expectation in his heart that the other party would agree cleanly .

The reason why he said that was simply to let him cooperate with his attack as much as possible and keep this hunter here forever.

Now it seems that he was thinking too much.

If even paladins are not trustworthy, then there is really nothing trustworthy in this world.

After all, the other party is not only a paladin of the god of truth Tom, but also the army commander of the Cliff Fortress. It can be said that he is a model of respecting discipline and protecting order.

In this world where the strong are respected and the class system is strict, if other aboriginal professionals heard him say that, they might stand on the sidelines and open their mouths to sneer.

Then Thorne didn't dare to waste time, and immediately ordered the paladin: "General Avar, please hold this hunter back, so that I will have time to start operations."

"Your Excellency Thorne, don't worry, leave it to me."

It seems that seeing the other party's fighting expression just now, the paladin Avar's tone of voice to Thorn became respectful.

I saw him bowing slightly to Thorn, saluting in a friendly manner, clenched the fine gold broadsword in his hand, and fixed his cold eyes on the Blighter in the distance.

After careful observation, it can be found that after being cleaned up by Thorne and his men, this fourth-tier hunter was not in a hurry to attack, but his old face was clearly anxious, and he looked around from time to time, as if he was waiting for someone to attack. something like that.

"Oh, that's right." Suddenly, Thorn remembered something, looked at the paladin's burly back, and explained to him: "You don't need to save your strength, just attack with all your strength."

Through the battle just now, he had seen that this paladin did not show his true strength to fight the enemy, otherwise the two entangled wild boars and dire lions would not have survived for so long.

It can be seen from this that although Avar can't kill the fourth-order witherer, it is more than enough to protect himself.

No matter how big the difference in strength between these two fourth-tier professionals is, the fact that the holy warrior's magic can restrain the wither's necromancy will never be changed.

Even if this Blighter is stronger, he still can't widen the gap and take advantage of the paladin.

This is why it is difficult to win or lose in a short period of time in the challenges among professionals who have reached a high level of strength, especially in the battle between spellcasters.

Hearing the ranger's explanation, the paladin Aval, who originally wanted to retain his strength, couldn't help being surprised.

Obviously, he didn't expect this ranger from Pushang Town to have such strong insight.

So he no longer concealed his strength, and his aura changed suddenly. With the cloak worn by the paladin on his body without wind, the wild grass around him was shaken and swayed.

——"Four Rings Magic: Dragon Power!"

The paladin standing on the rocky ground held his sword in front of his chest, let out a low shout, and his eyes suddenly became as majestic as a giant dragon.

Thorn's pupils shrank slightly when he saw the paladin's changed momentum.

For him who has experienced the baptism of dragon blood twice, he is very familiar with the powerful aura and coercion emanating from the paladin Avar.

Looking at the pale golden light shining under the scorching sun, even though his whole body was covered by armor, Thorne could guess that the paladin's body surface was definitely covered by layers of fine scale textures even without careful observation. .

He is quite familiar with the magic spell "Dragon Power" cast by paladins.

This is a buff spell, and the principle of this spell is to stimulate the dragon blood in the body, so that one's combat power can be greatly improved in a short period of time.

In addition to its function of increasing strength, constitution and charisma by 5 points, natural defense will increase by 4 points, and it is also immune to magic sleep and paralysis effects.

Strength, physique, and charisma are three vital attributes for paladins, and they are almost like divine spells tailor-made for them.

However, this spell is not exclusive to paladins, wizards or warlocks can also master it.

But just a precondition stumps the vast majority of people, because in order to master this powerful buff spell, one must have a trace of real dragon blood.

This also means that, except those creatures who are born with dragon blood can learn it, only those who have advanced to professions related to dragons, such as dragon vein warlocks, or those who have experienced the baptism of dragon blood, can successfully master this spell.

It can be seen from this that the paladin in front of him is likely to have experienced the baptism of dragon blood.

After all, the identity of the other party is still the head of the Silver Dragon Knights, and it is not surprising to receive the dragon blood baptism from the Silver Dragon.

Thinking of Thorne here, an unrealistic thought involuntarily came to mind.

But after careful consideration, he was forced to suppress it in the end.

Because this kind of magic requires at least the casting of four-ring magic, and as a ranger who is a half-casting profession like a paladin, he doesn't have this ability yet.

Only when one's strength reaches the hero level can one have the opportunity to consider how to learn this magic technique.

Thorne focused his attention on the paladin again after he was stunned for a while, preparing to find an opportunity to make a move in the gap between the two of them fighting, and then directly killed the Mara believer in one wave.

At this moment, the paladin Avar, who had mastered the power of the dragon, froze his expression, let out a battle roar like a giant dragon's roar, fixed his cold eyes on the figure of the wither, and rushed up alone.

Such a big movement on the paladin's side naturally cannot be hidden from the eyes of the withered one.

Seeing the opponent's body shining with gold and silver under the scorching sun, this horse-drawn hunter, the caracal lion hunter, looked as stable as an old dog on the outside, but actually panicked inside.

Facing the attack of the paladin, although he is not afraid, he can even use the teleportation spell to escape easily.

But he knew very well that retreating meant that all his hard work over the past three years was in vain.

He was naturally unwilling to leave like this, otherwise, when the opponent attacked the small village, he would have escaped with his subordinates immediately.

"It seems that there is really no way."

The fierce lion hunter looked at the paladin who was approaching quickly, but his temporary ally refused to show up. He whispered unwillingly, and cursed the wolf witch's family over and over again in his heart.

Because he thought that if the Wolf Witch hadn't agreed to help him deal with the paladins, he wouldn't have wasted so many of his well-trained subordinates here.

But now, this abominable witch actually played a trick on him, making him not only have to face the full attacking paladin, but also always guard against the difficult ranger, especially the opponent's two sabots that could threaten his life. Magic arrows.

At this moment, not only did he have to face the pincer attack of paladins and rangers, he was even worried about the silver dragon guards who were fighting in the village.

As long as these people are free, he will have to face the siege of a group of priests and paladins. As a blighter who is proficient in necromancy, if he encounters priests who restrain him these days, he will be killed if he is not careful. worry.

The fierce lion hunter who wanted to understand the problem sighed helplessly. Before the attack of the paladin was close, he turned his palm and a teleportation scroll appeared in his hand.

Obviously, he was planning to escape.

Compared with the profound meaning of the advanced Legend of Destiny, he still thinks that saving his life is the most important thing.

"Jie Jie Jie, Lion Hunter, don't panic, I've arrived, hold the paladin, I'm looking for a chance to kill him in the dark."

Just when the Blight was about to flee, a hoarse old female voice with a creepy shriek came into his ears.

Hearing the familiar voice, the ferocious lion hunter was startled, and quickly put away the teleportation scroll, not forgetting to curse the other party shamelessly in his heart, and then began to prepare spells to meet the attack of the paladin.

——"Four Rings Magic: Comet Impact!"

Just as the paladin Avar was about to approach the fierce lion hunter, the holy adamantine broadsword in his hand erupted under the scorching sun with gorgeous flames intertwined with orange, gold and red without warning.

When he swung his weapon at the Lion Hunter's body, the terrifying flame dragged sparks and hit the target like a meteor falling to the ground.

"boom!"

The ferocious lion hunter, who had no time to dodge, ate the paladin's attack forcefully, and the protective power covering his whole body became dim in an instant, as if it would be broken at any time.

The ferocious lion hunter staggered backwards due to the surging and brilliant slash.

However, thankfully, the spell he prepared hastily was not interrupted.

——"Second Ring Spell: Shadow Impact!"

So immediately before the paladin's second attack was cut out, he raised his hand and released a dark shadow force, shooting at the paladin's chest.

Seeing the oncoming attack, the paladin knew it was too late to evade.

His expression froze, and relying on his strong physique, he forcibly swallowed a spell from the other party.

"boom!"

When the gray energy touched the armor, it exploded in his chest, making a bang, and the force field energy generated by the explosion made him take a few steps back uncontrollably.

Immediately afterwards, this corrosive shadow energy spread to the whole body of the paladin like maggots attached to the bones at an extremely fast speed,

The paladin unhurriedly stretched out his hand to pat the holy emblem on his chest, and a holy light emerged, easily dispelling the shadow energy.

Seeing that the paladin was temporarily repelled by one of his own spells, the ferocious lion hunter retreated while chanting the spell in a low voice, keeping a certain distance from the opponent.

Suddenly, he heard the dull reverberation of the bowstring, his face changed, and without thinking, he instinctively twisted his body violently.

A sharp arrow flashing light orange flames and deep purple arcs, with a howling sound of piercing through the air, mercilessly tore apart the Lion Hunter's protective force field, pierced through his abdomen, and the flames and arcs spread along the way Come.

——"Flash!"

The fierce lion hunter who was hit hard endured the pain in his abdomen, stretched out his hand to cover the bleeding wound, and quickly activated the displacement spell, disappeared without a trace in place, and successfully avoided the charge of the paladin and Thorne's attack. The second arrow.

Seeing the disappearing lion hunter, Thorn immediately realized that the target of the other party was probably himself, so he put away his bow and arrow, touched the hilt of his sword, and looked around vigilantly.

——"Five Rings Spell: Throbbing Bones!"

With an angry roar, the ferocious lion hunter pointed his finger with strong negative energy at Thorne in the distance without warning.

Thorn, who was pointed at, froze, and instantly felt a cold negative energy invade his body.

Under the influence of this evil spell, the bones of his whole body were throbbing and trembling, as if they were about to tear apart the flesh and blood and jump out, which made him extremely painful.

——"Shadow Hand School (Teleportation Skill): Shadow Leap!"

Thorn was enduring great pain, and with a thought, he quickly disappeared into a cloud of shadow energy, almost dodging the next negative energy ray of the lion hunter.

Although he had distanced himself from the lion hunter, to Thorne's surprise, the evil spell he had just suffered did not stop.

Under the influence of the bone-chilling negative energy in his body, he could clearly feel that the bones all over his body seemed to be forcibly dismantled, and the outlines of the bones kept agitating on the skin, and there were continuous intense pains.

——"Steel Soul Pie (Coping Skill): Spirit Body Defense!"

Thorn immediately hid in the dense bushes, concealed his figure, launched the steel soul martial art, and used the energy of Qi to dispel the evil energy in his body.

At the same time, on the other side, taking advantage of Thorne's distraction of the Grim Lion Hunter, the paladin's attack hit the seriously injured Grim Lion Hunter once again like a meteor falling to the ground.

The moment the paladin's sacred adamantine broadsword hit the ferocious lion hunter, the seriously injured hunter did not dodge or dodge, a breath of suffocating negative energy erupted all over his body, and his thin body transformed into a body shape. Huge undead dire lion.

The appearance of this ferocious lion is very similar to the one that was killed before, but its body size is significantly taller than before, and the negative energy that surrounds it has also become extremely strong.

"boom!"

With a soul-shaking roar, the Dire Lion used its hard skull to knock the unprepared paladin into the air.

The power of this slamming blow directly sent Avar, who was blessed with the power of the dragon, flying more than ten meters away.

"Roar!"

Immediately afterwards, the ferocious lion roared, and the black body of his body flowed through the gaps in the bones like substance. He jumped up, wrapped in a bitter negative energy breath, and rushed towards the paladin who had not stabilized his body.

- "Supernatural Ability: Turn Undead!"

Facing the fierce lion's pounce, the paladin who stabilized his body calmly raised the holy emblem under the scorching sun, and a pale golden light array quickly enveloped the violent lion.

"Zizzi"

The ferocious lion let out a painful roar, and the scorched mist rose from the skeleton without a trace of flesh and blood, and the negative energy that enveloped the whole body became much dimmer.

However, he still bravely rushed out of the dispersing light array, and his huge body threw the paladin to the ground.

The paladin Avar swung his sword against the gap between the neck and skull of the ferocious lion, preventing his sharp fangs from biting his body.

On the other side, Thorn, who was hiding in the bushes, was still struggling to resist the erosion of negative energy in his body, and at the same time, he saw clearly the situation of the battle.

Seeing the paladin being forced back again and again by the ferocious lion, instead of worrying, he smiled a little.

"Taling, you can make a move." Thorne wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, gritted his teeth to hold on to the pain that had not dissipated all over his body, and with a thought, he established a connection with the wizard tower.

When he was preparing to support the paladin, he asked Taring to help him analyze the strength of the Marathon hunter, and then helped him formulate a tactic to kill the opponent.

In the plan given by Ta Ling, in addition to sending the steel golem to slay it powerfully, another way is to wait until he transforms into a ferocious lion in the form of an undead, and then attack his attribute weakness.

Thorne naturally would not choose the steel golem guarding the tower, so he asked Taling to prepare for the second plan.

"...Received!" A familiar cold voice sounded in his ears again, and one order after another was issued quickly: "...The target has been locked!...The portal has been opened!...All units, please prepare for battle! "
