"Zheng!Zheng!Zheng!"

The exhilarating pipa song reverberated in the jungle, the roar of slaughter, and the long howl of death like a furious storm rushing across the battlefield, drawing all those involved in the battle into the raging waves.

Noticing the battle ahead, Thorne glanced around vigilantly, and after finding that he was not noticed by the enemy, he immediately hid behind a sturdy tree beside him, used it as a cover, and then secretly observed the battle.

"All of them are barbarians?" Looking at a tall and burly figure, Thorne's eyes showed confusion.

Although he has never been to Twin Towers Town, he still knows a lot about the original residents living there. He also knows a little bit about the barbarians who live in the northern wasteland and the extreme north, but what makes him puzzled is the quiet forest. How come there are so many, and what purpose do they come here for?

Thorne glanced at it roughly and counted the corpses of the barbarians who fell to the ground and died. There were about 80 people. Most of the weapons in the hands of these rude barbarians were mainly two-handed axe, and almost everyone had a set on their left arm. With a small round shield that does not interfere with the battle.

They are wearing uniform metal armor, each armor is also painted with a corolla of needles, sunflower leaves and long swords. The underside of the corolla is dotted with a series of mysterious runes that even he can't recognize, more like a nobleman Signet.

Faced with the attack of nearly a hundred hobgoblin warriors, these well-trained barbarians did not appear flustered at all. They all gathered beside a large carriage, compressing the defensive range, and trying their best to protect the pipa that was hidden inside and played an uplifting momentum. Qudi Mysterious Bard.

Obviously, the mysterious bard in the carriage has a very important place in the hearts of these barbarians. When the formation formed by the barbarians was found by a few wolves with a strong ability to seize opportunities, they jumped over the barbarians' defensive formation. Immediately, several barbarians tried their best to stop it regardless of their own lives.

"Clang clang!"

With the sound of sharp blades colliding, both sides kept attrition, but the corpses of Hobgoblin warriors and Wargs were relatively more.

Through the hobgoblin corpses scattered all over the ground, Thorne roughly estimated that the number of hobgoblin warriors attacking the barbarians was around 150.

In addition to being slashed to death by the barbarian's two-handed axe, there are also a number of hobgoblin archers hiding in the distance who were killed by spells, and Thorne did not find the caster profession nearby, so it is obviously A mysterious bard hidden in a carriage.

In such a tragic battle, the bard only hid in the carriage and used music to cheer. From this, it can be inferred that the opponent's spells should be used up.

In this battle between the two sides, although the number of well-trained hobgoblins was higher than that of the barbarians on the defending side, after their formation was reduced, the bard's buff spell "Inspire Courage" boosted morale, but the two sides temporarily temporarily stuck in a stalemate.

Then Thorne turned his attention to other places. When he noticed the parking position of the carriage and many horses that fell to the ground, howling or dead, he immediately guessed the direction of the pedestrian. This group was mainly savages. The person seems to be walking towards the waterfall town in the west.

After all, there is only such a sure way to the Forest of Tranquility.

As a result, it is conceivable that they did not know that the Forest of Tranquility had been occupied by the Hobgoblin, and plunged into the territory of the Hobgoblin and was besieged by the other party.

Although the hobgoblin warriors could not solve this group of tenacious barbarians for the time being, the barbarians who were struggling to support could not help the hobgoblins, because they had to worry about the people in the carriage, but they were unable to break out of the encirclement. , it is only a matter of time before being dragged to death by the Hobgoblin.

After all, people's physical strength is limited, and these well-trained hobgoblins are still concerned about the power of spells and dare not rush too much.

After a while, the leading Hobgoblin realized that the opponent's spells had been used up, so he immediately adjusted the formation and used the advantage of the number of people to make a rotation attack, but there were only more than 50 barbarians left, but there was no reserve team at all, facing the earth. A fine wheel battle is only capable of parrying.

"Prepare to break through! Rush out!"

When Thorne noticed the surging jungle not far away, and found that the reinforcements of the hobgoblins seemed to be arriving immediately, and was considering whether to help, the barbarian captain roared.

- "Higher Fury!"

Under this powerful roar, his already unusually mighty body began to expand rapidly, followed by bursts of crackling noises, and the bones of the whole body were pulled up section by section at a speed visible to the naked eye, covering the armor of the whole body. It was also instantly smashed by the swollen body, revealing explosive muscles.

"Roar! Roar!"

There were two more roars, and the two subordinates beside the barbarian captain also activated the rage ability.

As their bodies were pulled up section by section, they did not join the battle of the hobgoblins, but retreated to the carriage, cut off the reins connecting the horses on the carriage, and moved the two horses killed by bows and arrows to one side. The two pulled up the carriage together, ready to rush out of the hobgoblin's encirclement at any time.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The leader of the barbarian captain clenched his hands tightly with the giant axe in his hands and swept through a gust of wind, and the four hobgoblin warriors who used their shields to block him were all swept away in the blasting sparks.

"Stop him! Stop him!" Noticing that the enemy was planning to break through, the hobgoblin leader's expression changed, and he roared at the warriors around him, and the hobgoblin warriors immediately rushed to block.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Another unstoppable battle axe swept across, and the few hobgoblins that had just been added were swept away again. One of the hobgoblin warriors who was too late to block was instantly split in half by the sharp giant axe, and his upper body lay on the ground and wailed.

"rush out!"

The barbarian captain glanced at the men behind him with bloodshot eyes, walking at the forefront, all the hobgoblin warriors who tried to intercept were all swept away by him, and there was no enemy, even the arrows galloping in the distance. He easily slapped flying with the small round shield on his arm.

In this way, the tight encirclement of the goblin was torn apart by a huge gap, accompanied by the high-level fury of the barbarian captain.

"The challenge level of this barbarian captain is probably above tenth level, and he already belongs to the third-level professional, but they seem to be going in the wrong direction. Isn't this courting death?"

Thorne looked at the sharp and fierce attack of the barbarian captain, and was secretly shocked, and then found that they were foolishly breaking out in the direction of the waterfall town. Obviously, he did not understand the specific situation of the Silent Forest. He thought that these wandering hobgoblins only But it was an accident.

At the same time, the chasing Hobgoblin leader also noticed this situation, and immediately ordered the Hobgoblin warriors to chase after them with a strong momentum, instead of trying to intercept them.

"Ow! Oooo! Oooo!"

The howling of wolves echoed on both sides of the road.

The barbarian captain did not go far with the remaining 30 men and the carriage, and was intercepted by the 60 or 70 goblin reinforcements who had just arrived.

These little goblins rode calf-sized wargs, all armed with strong bows and crossbows, to block the barbarian captain's team.

"For the glory of the Almighty! Charge!"

The Hobgoblin leader behind him took the opportunity to raise his sword and shout loudly, and all the remaining Hobgoblin warriors lined up in a neat formation to charge the barbarians.

The barbarian captain glanced at the carriage in despair. When he was about to attack the wolves and goblins blocking the way, a whistling dark red fireball suddenly passed through the jungle, accompanied by a violent explosion. The goblin group on the wolf's back that was about to launch a rain of arrows suddenly burst into mournful wailing.

"The Forest of Tranquility has long been occupied by the Hobgoblins. You first block the Hobgoblin behind you. I will resist these Goblins and Wargs." At the moment when the barbarian captain was stunned, Thorne's figure appeared in front of him. After leaving a sentence, the whole body was immediately wrapped in the shadow energy cloud and disappeared without a trace.

"Block the goblins!" The barbarian captain obviously knew that this was not the time to hesitate. He glanced in shock at Thorne, who appeared in the goblin group in a strange way, and immediately greeted all the men around him, waving his axe and leaping in In the horde of goblins.

- "Desert Wind Sect (Stance Skill): Flames!"

- "Mage Armor!"

At the same time, when Thorne's figure appeared in the aftermath of the explosion of the goblin group, the whole body was instantly enveloped by a layer of flame barrier and an invisible protective force field, the heat wave swept the area around Thorne, and bursts of scorching hot Breath, all the flammable objects on all the wolves and goblins within one meter of Thorne were ignited.

The shrill wolf howls and the goblin's screams continued to sound.

Thorne, who was among the goblins and the wolves, did not make any attacks. He walked back and forth a few times like a leisurely stroll, raising bursts of hot fire waves. Wherever he passed, there was no grass. All the goblins and The wargs died tragically in the raging flames.

Looking at the wailing goblins and warwolves left behind, Thorne moved his thoughts, and all the flames shrouded his body dissipated. Then he took off the composite longbow behind him and turned to focus on the hobgoblins behind him. on the soldier.

"call out!"

"Pfft!"

Arrows of arcing and flaming rip through the air, pinpointing a goblin-bear rogue trying to sneak up on a wagon.

Noticing the grateful gaze projected from the carriage door curtain, Thorne ignored it, and continued to walk forward while drawing an arrow from his quiver.

Suddenly, he noticed a slight floating in the trees above his head, so driven by his intuition, he opened the compound longbow and shot an arrow upwards.

"what!!!"

With a shrill cry, the body of a goblin bear fell in front of him.

Thorne drew another sharp arrow from behind him and walked on the goblin's corpse.

"Pfft!"

The sharp arrow roared, and a hobgoblin who slashed at the barbarian with a sword was shot in the chest. Following the arc and flames that jumped on the arrow, the hobgoblin wailed and fell to the ground.

Then Thorne continued to draw the arrows from the quiver, and as he continued to walk forward, the arrows kept coming out of his hands, and the Hobgoblin warriors were hit by the arrows, falling to the ground in the throbbing purple arc and pale orange flames.

As the hobgoblin warriors kept falling to the ground with arrows, all the hobgoblins in the melee noticed the figure in the distance holding a bow and arrow and hiding in a black cloak. When they looked at the half-elf ranger, they almost all showed fear. As if praying inwardly that the arrow of death, burning with fire and lightning, will not come upon you.

Unlike the Hobgoblins, the barbarian warriors became harder and more frantic in the face of the Hobgoblin's attack after knowing that they had such a strong support.

When Thorne was about to approach the place where the Hobgoblin and the barbarians were fighting, he immediately put away the composite longbow and replaced it with the longsword he held in his hand.

The moment Thorne appeared, he had long noticed that his Hobgoblin leader chopped down a barbarian warrior, waved his hand, and rushed towards him with two warriors in a double-teamed situation.

A long sword stabbed first from his right side. Thorne took out the short sword in his left hand and slashed it violently, smashing the tip of the sword to the ground. The Hobgoblin warrior subconsciously prepared to raise his shield to block, but Thorne's attack speed was far The ground surpassed the Hobgoblin's reaction, and I saw a cold light flashing, and the long sword Slasher exudes the breath of death slashing through the Hobgoblin's fragile throat, and a Hobgoblin corpse fell to the ground on its back first.

Another long sword stabbed at his chest from the left side. The short sword in Thorne's left hand flipped upwards, knocking the long sword of the hobgoblin into the air, and then the right hand slashed like a lightning bolt, and the opponent's shield-raising arm responded. Broken, the pained Hobgoblin warrior screamed.

Thorne took the opportunity to jump forward and approached the wailing Hobgoblin. The short sword in his left hand slashed a cold light. While dodging the slash of the Hobgoblin leader, the Hobgoblin warrior with the broken arm twitched and fell to the ground. at every turn.

——“Desert Wind Sect (Strike Skill): Flame Star!”

Immediately afterwards, Thorne leaned over to avoid the icy blade, and then turned abruptly, the long sword block blocked the slash of the Hobgoblin leader, and the short sword in his left hand suddenly burst into a fiery white light.

The leader of the hobgoblin who was caught off guard fell into a state of blindness. He instinctively retreated and raised his shield to block, but Thorne's attack was very violent. On, the last beheading sword slashed, and the head of the Hobgoblin leader flew into the dust.

Then Thorne took a deep breath, waving his two swords and leaping into the other side of the battlefield again. The two sharp blades in his hands were like butterfly wings piercing flowers, going back and forth in the light orange light curtain, scorching fire waves passed by, one after another. The Hobgoblin warriors who Kugu Ying met in front of him fell to the ground and died.

Finally, the morale of the hobgoblin warriors who were killed only a dozen or so broke down. They glanced at Thorne's figure and the remaining twenty or so barbarians in fear, turned around and fled with a strange cry.

- "Second Ring Magic: Web of Thorns!"

With the high-spirited divine incantation hurriedly read out of Thorne's mouth, a pale green light lit up in the wooden holy emblem on his left hand.

There was a sudden sound like a thousand sharp knives unsheathed around the dozen or so gnomes who escaped, and all the withered grass, shrubs, and even trees around them grew sharp thorns, and bent into thorns, swinging wildly towards them. All hobgoblin warriors trying to escape are entangled.

The Hobgoblin warriors who had no time to escape were immediately entangled by thorns. The sharp spikes penetrated through the gaps in the armor and mercilessly sank into the fragile flesh. No matter how hard they struggled, it was difficult to get rid of them.

"Kill them all!" The blood-drenched barbarian captain looked at Thorne in awe, and with a swing of the giant axe, all the barbarians who could fight joined the slaughter of the Hobgoblin warriors.
