Chapter 19 The Weird Beast Tide
“Master, what do you think the situation is going on?”
Sitting on the branch, Anjiela looked at the monsters slowly moving forward in the distance and asked happily.
"It's hard to say."
Li Lin stood beside her, and the magic runes on her body gradually dimmed, just hovering around Li Lin, forming a strong defense. Just now, he moved himself and Anjiela to the nearby woods while the two sisters were not paying attention. Watching this beast tide from afar, this was the first time for Anjiela to see such a large-scale monster activity, and for Li Lin, it was still a long time since he met him.
While answering Angela's inquiry, Li Lin carefully observed the monsters in the distance. After applying the Eagle Vision, he could easily see things in the distance. The monsters were not very big, only the size of a wealth wolf, and not even as large as a real wild wolf. However, their bodies were extremely strange, and the whole body looked dull and even a little transparent. Their eyes were also gray, and there would be almost no light in the darkness. Looking around, it was like a black wave sweeping and rolling forward.
"This is a shadow dog, not a product of this plane. It should have lived in the shadow world. It should be in the plane overlap period, so it appears here. It is dangerous or dangerous to say it is not dangerous or dangerous."
Li Lin naturally recognized this kind of monster. They are not much different from ordinary wolves or dogs. The only thing that is more troublesome is that this shadow dog has almost no entity and can only rely on magical strikes or magic weapons to cause damage. Of course, there are still so-called "almost none", but it is difficult to hit, which is very difficult for ordinary warriors. The reason why they are dangerous and not dangerous is due to the unstable factors of the plane overlap period. If the plane overlaps for a short time, then they will all disappear out of thin air before these shadow dogs arrive in the town. But if the time is long, then this town will have to be blessed. After all, shadow dogs are creatures in the shadow world, and they will not advance according to the route of the main material plane.
The best way is to use divine magic or luminous magic to attack, but Li Lin has already checked in the town and there is no temple here.
As for the mage...
He didn't say anything else, but raised his head and began to watch the tide of beasts in front of him.
"Can those two little guys survive in this situation?"
Angela held her cheeks with both hands and stared at the two people standing not far below with interest. She had already given her sister two death orders - fighting to the lowest point and not retreating. This order from the direct blood clan completely dispelled the idea of the two sisters' escape. After all, Angela was their creator, and the order she gave was impossible for the two sisters to refuse.
"If they have enough strength... or smart enough."
Li Lin carefully recalled the magic he taught to Fina and said with confidence.
"In other words, if they die, they can only blame themselves for being stupid?"
Angela chuckled softly, and the silver bell-like laughter echoed in the woods.
"That's right, traveling with master does not require waste or mental retardation. If you die, it will be easier."
Speaking of this, Anjie pulled her eyes and seemed to have thought of something interesting.
"Master, do you want to make a bet with me?"
"What bet?"
Li Lin asked curiously.
"Fina is your student, Mina is my student, so let's take this as a test to see which of them is better?"
"What are you betting on?"
Obviously, Li Lin did not object to Angela's proposal.
"What I said is... How about this? If you win, I will be at your disposal. If you win, you will be at your disposal within three days?"
"………no problem."
At this moment, the two sisters naturally didn't know where their masters went, and they didn't expect that they had become the bargaining chips for others to gamble. Looking at the beast tide slowly approaching her, Fina trembled all over, and Mina was also extremely nervous when she blocked her sister. They wanted to escape, but when the idea of running away turned around, their legs seemed to no longer belong to them, and they could not move at all. It seemed that they could only choose to attack.
"How many spells have you prepared?"
Looking at the tide of beasts getting closer, Mina bit her lips and whispered to her sister. Although she didn't know much about spells, she was not too unfamiliar because both spells and divine arts needed to be prepared. Now they are undead creatures, and naturally they cannot get the divine arts given by the gods, but it does not mean that they even lost their memories.
"I, I, I'm ready... ready..."
Fina gritted her teeth and thought desperately. Fortunately, although she was chanting spells, she was not stupid. Almost all the low-level spells that Li Lin taught her on weekdays were prepared. Soon, she began to chant the spell in a low voice, trying to cast the spell.
"Wait a moment!"
Seeing that her sister was about to reach out to move forward, Mina hurriedly grabbed her.
"It's not time to start the battle yet!"
"Ah! Yes, I..."
Fina was shocked. The spell she had originally planned to cast immediately disappeared, wasting a chance to cast spells. No wonder, after all, she was used to being a priest, and the priest basically gave the people on her side various spell states before the battle to avoid accidents. How could she cast spells in the battle?
"A spell."
Watching Fina's performance, Li Lin frowned. Obviously, Fina's childish behavior wasted a spell, and this mistake can be regarded as the most deadly when the mage fights.
"Huhu, master, what's wrong?"
Although he is not familiar with magic, after staying with Li Lin for so long, Angela still notices his reaction.
"It seems that something is not good?"
"The magic skills are very exquisite."
Li Lin's expression returned to a harmless calm smile of humans and animals.
"You'd better worry about yourself. After all, you haven't given Mina any magic weapon? It's very troublesome to deal with the shadow dog."
"You are underestimating our blood-sucking species..."
“————!!”
At this moment, the leading shadow dog seemed to have noticed the obstacles blocking them. It immediately stopped and let out a long howl. Then, the beast group began to move firmly towards the town of Ewingkaran again. Although the IQ of the monsters was higher than that of the wild beasts, the instinct of migration had already penetrated into their blood, just as if the lemmings would firmly choose to move forward regardless of whether the sea or cliffs were ahead, the shadow dog group still had no intention of staying, and headed towards the town in front of them.
"Shoot the arrow!!"
Hundreds of arrows burning with flames shot out from the city wall, shooting towards the group of monsters in front of them like rain of arrows. Afraid of the flames, the group of beasts that were originally moving slowly paused for a moment, and then turned into a surging shadow stream. They rushed forward at a rapid speed. There was no fire in the shadow plane. Although these flame arrows did cause some damage to the shadow dogs, they immediately aroused their ferociousness. If these monsters had just regarded the town in front of them as obstacles like rocks or mountains, then now in their consciousness, this was their enemy.
"Why are you still stunned? Shoot the arrow quickly!!"
The sudden acceleration of the beasts made the old chief guard on the city wall nervous. He angrily shouted and pushed away the frightened recruits beside him, snatched the longbow from his hand, and immediately pulled out the oil-soaked arrows on the torch and ignited them, aimed quickly, and whispered loudly.
"shoot!!"
As another rocket fell, the other soldiers came to their senses and began to repeat the same movements. Unfortunately, they were just ordinary soldiers after all, hoping that these "wild beasts" would run away immediately after seeing the fire. But they did not expect that the flames not only did not stop the steps of these "wild beasts", but instead made them even more dangerous!
At this moment, the old guard's eyes swept under the city wall, and then immediately stopped on the two sisters. Although the distance was very far, it was impossible to see who they were. But at present, there was still someone who could not run back?
"Come back soon!!"
Although he knew that it was impossible to open the door and pick people up at this time, the old chief guard still shouted in vain in that direction. Unfortunately, his voice seemed to have not been conveyed to the two people at all. They just stood there blankly, watching the black wave sweeping over - and then completely swallowed them.
"That's over? Waste?"
Watching the two sisters, they didn't even resist, and were submerged by the shadow dogs, Anjie frowned in dissatisfaction.
Could it be that these two humans actually chose to escape by death?
At this moment, a red light appeared. Then, a huge explosion mixed with the scorching wind broke out from the shadow dog group, tearing a crack out.
"I said, the mystery of magic is very exquisite."
Watching Fina standing in it, with magical glory flashing in her hands, Li Lin said proudly.
After a fire burst tore the defense line of the Shadow Dogs, Fina immediately became the target of the beasts. This time, Mina was not idle either. During the exercise with Angela, she had learned the basic attack method of the blood-sucking species. At this moment, she stood in front of her sister naked, protecting her from any disturbances to facilitate the preparation of the next spell. The Shadow Dogs are indeed difficult to attack, and many times Mina's attacks are even empty, but fortunately, the vampire's speed makes up for the lack of hits. If you don't hit, you will naturally hit them a few more hits...
Under the protection of her sister, Fina quickly cast a flame spray and cleared a large area of ground again.
Excited by the battle between the two sisters, the soldiers on the city wall also worked extra hard. The arrows of flames kept shooting into the shadow dogs. However, even so, a large number of shadow dogs still rushed under the city wall and began to climb up quickly, trying to jump over the barrier. However, those soldiers who were prepared were naturally not stupid enough to wait for them to climb up. Holding heavy shields in their hands, they knocked the shadow dogs that climbed up again in a few rounds.
The tug-of-war between the two sides continued, the number of shadow dogs began to gradually decrease, and Fina's magic casting interval became longer and longer - even to the point where she would never cast magic if there was no danger. Obviously, her magic was going to be consumed.
"The situation is wrong."
Looking at the shadow dog that was still emerging from the distance of the horizon, Li Lin frowned.
"The overlap of planes cannot last for so long, there is a problem."
And at this moment, the woman wrapped in a cloak appeared on the city wall. She looked at the shadow dogs under the city wall, with a hint of undetectable tension in her eyes.
"Miss, why are you here?"
Notice the appearance of the woman, the old commander of the guard immediately came to her and asked nervously and respectfully.
"When something like this happened, how could I not come and see it?"
The woman's voice was still gentle and quiet. Her eyes were on the sisters who were still struggling to persevere under the city wall for a moment, and then moved away.
“How long has this been going on?”
She asked in a low voice.
"It's been about two hours..."
The old guard looked at the shadow dog that was still slamming into the city wall below and gasped. After all, he had never seen any "wild beast" as persistent as it was.
"Two hours?"
The woman repeated the old guard's words softly, then she reached forward, and soon the beautiful staff appeared in her hand.
"Miss, you are..."
Seeing that the woman was about to take action, the old guard's face changed.
"Call your people ready."
However, the woman seemed to have not changed much and still whispered.
"We're probably in trouble."
