The torches were re-lit as the enemy had discovered where they were hiding, and Ritter commanded six of his teammates in a semi-circular formation, with their backs against the walls of the cave, ready to face the formidable enemy. Although they couldn't figure it out, how could the thief still be able to sense it accurately after a few hundred meters away?
Maybe it was some kind of detection spell that the other party had cast, Austin thought when he saw the thief floating like a ghost over the sea of dung that left them with unbearable memories.
By the light of the fire, Austin and the others could see clearly the culprit who had led them to carry out their mission, a woman! A beautiful woman to be exact! No one expected that the target of this trip would be a woman with a beautiful face and a plump figure.
The sexy red lips reminded Austin of what kind of ecstasy it would be if she could bite into the hostess who turned herself from a boy into a man in "Beauty and Wine"!
After a moment of fascination, everyone turned their attention from the female thief's face, breasts, buttocks, and other parts to the strangely shaped dagger she was holding. The handle of the dagger is very long, twenty centimeters long, and at the top of the handle is an eyeball-sized ruby, which glows with a bewitching light, like the eyes of a demon from hell, and the blade of the dagger is snake-shaped, curved, and black.
"What a disgusting bunch of rats, hiding in such a disgusting place, if it hadn't sensed your smell, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to find you. "
As she spoke, the figure of the female thief flashed, and there were suddenly three more afterimages in the air, and the dagger in her hand was also like a dancing long snake, attacking the strongest Ritter in the semi-circle formation at an extremely tricky angle. She could tell that Ritter was the head of these men, and as long as she got rid of him, a light slaughter ensued.
Ritter was naturally not weak, he shouted, the long sword in his hand was raised high, and then fell suddenly, ignoring the dagger that was about to stab his body, and slashed directly at the female thief.
This kind of wound-for-injury style successfully defused the female thief's attack, and she had to set up a dagger to meet Ritter's heavy split, even if she was a fifth-level thief, she would definitely not be able to compare with the knight who was good at this aspect by she, and she took three steps back to stabilize her figure.
However, she did not achieve any results at all, the dagger in her hand was of extraordinary quality, while the long sword in Ritter's hand was ordinary, after the impact, her dagger had nothing to do, and Ritter's sword had an extra gap.
The second wave of the female thief's attack came immediately, this time her figure was erratic, no one could judge the target of her attack this time, everyone's hearts were in their throats, even Ritter was unwilling to fight with this female thief again.
She didn't have to wait long, but to everyone's surprise, she attacked the torch in Mandington's hand, and as soon as the torch was extinguished, her dagger moved again and stabbed at the warrior Ral.
The woman's stature was already short, and after she squatted slightly, her arms were just at the height of Ral's stomach, and the blow did not miss, even if Lahr instinctively fell backwards, it was too late.
The smell of blood began to permeate, and Ral's screams followed, and then there was no more, and his shouting came to an abrupt end, and even if they could not see it, the rest understood that he had been slit by the female thief and had taken his life.
"Well, what a charming taste! It said it was satisfied, and the stronger the person, the more delicious his blood became, unlike the previous waste, even the blood was bland and tasteless. "
The female thief continued to spread fear in the darkness while scrutinizing the rest of her prey with her beautiful eyes that could see darkness as day, but her eyes flickered except when she looked at Ritter, and she looked at the others like pigs and dogs.
And her prey, some shivering in the dark, some quietly retreating to make the formation full of holes, even Rhett, the man who was expected to become a knight in the future, also retreated sharply until his back was pressed against the cold rock.
"Brother Ritter, put on my sword. Austin was not slow to move, he was in the position next to Ritter, and when he felt Ritter go backwards, he followed him closely, and at the same time groped for the sword in his hand to pass it to Ritter.
In the darkness, Ritter took Austin's sword with one hand, and reached for the pendant around his neck with the other, which John had given him before entering the sewers, and it was also his most valuable item, a magic item!
After the pendant was held tightly in Ritter's hand, he spat out two short syllables from his mouth, and then immediately a soft light rose from the pendant, which was the lowest level of light magic, the lowest trick of spells.
Austin and the others finally regained their sight, but to their surprise, why did the female thief disappear?
"Ah!!" a long-pitched scream told them of the female thief, this time unfortunate to Berner, the old hunter, who had only time to look down at the dagger that had come out of his heart before he breathed.
"Goo. Austin couldn't help but swallow, he had to force himself to accept a cruel truth: in front of this female thief, except for Ritter, no one else had the slightest ability to resist. Fortunately, the female thief's attention was successfully attracted by Ritter, or rather by his pendant, which made Austin breathe a sigh of relief for a while.
At this time, Ritter was holding it and continued to recite the awkward syllables, this time the spell was obviously longer than the one that had just cast the light spell, and the female thief who also worked part-time as a mage class, judging from the fluctuations of the magic net caused by the pendant, this should be a second-level spell, although even the most destructive blazing orb in the second-level spell could not necessarily threaten her, she still carefully chose to interrupt Ritter's casting.
Like a ghostly figure floating in again, and seeing that Ritter's spell seemed impossible to complete before the female thief arrived, Austin's mind suddenly went blank, what should I do?
I don't know if Rhett's previous care for him played a role, but in the crisis, Austin subconsciously raised the broken sword and slashed at the female thief.
Austin's movements seemed to the female thief as slow as a snail, and his sword was as weak as a sheep, but his body happened to block the trajectory of the dagger's attack, and the female thief tried to change the angle of her shot, but found it difficult to bypass the obstacle in front of her to attack Ritter, who was chanting the spell.
Fortunately, the female thief gave up attacking Ritter and prepared to finish off the guy in front of her.
But at this moment, Ritter, who was blocked by Austin, moved, his spell had actually been completed, after all, he was using magic items, not really casting spells, and it was not long to activate the spell, but in order to lure the female thief over, he still pretended not to be completed.
The female thief was right, he activated a second-level spell stored on the pendant, but it was not a direct attack spell, but the power of the wild bull of the change system, because it was blessed on his body, and the female thief did not have arcane vision in his eyes, so he was successfully deceived into thinking that the spell had not been cast yet.
And Austin jumped out to block the female thief was not what Rhett expected, but it was okay this way, someone attracted firepower, and he could sneak attack with confidence.
It's hard to describe, Austen was completely dominated by fear at that moment, watching the pitch-black dagger get closer and closer to his heart, but his body couldn't react, as if he heard a roar from hell, and he seemed to see the devil's shadow on the scarlet jewel, hideous and furious.
The pain came, blood splattered in his chest, and Austin felt the world spin around, and his strength was surging to run out of his body. But fortunately, he was not stabbed directly into the heart by the dagger and took his life. Because Ritter's fist hit the female thief, her attack was deflected, and the dagger was inserted through the ribs of Austin's left chest, fortunately avoiding the heart and vital blood vessels.
Unfortunately, because of the success of Ritter's attack, the female thief was knocked away by his increased strength, and the dagger was not pulled out and remained in Austin's chest.
If it was really an ordinary dagger, it would be nothing, and if it was not pulled out, it would temporarily prevent heavy bleeding, but this dagger of the female thief was not ordinary, it had a life of its own!
Austin felt his strength run away, not after the injury, but really, his blood rushing to the ghost dagger in his chest, which was like an ancient beast that could not be fed, sucking his blood like crazy
