"Am I going to die?" Austen's consciousness began to dissipate from the blood loss, and even apparitions appeared in his mind, and he saw his mother, the woman who had died when he was three years old, smiling at him, greeting him over, he saw his sister, the poor little girl who had died of a cold disease, holding the broken doll he had given her, and finally he saw himself, pale and bloodless, a huge terrifying ghost with three heads hanging over him.
But the hallucinations didn't last long, as a sharp pain in his chest woke him up and pulled him back from the arms of death, and it turned out to be Karen, the thief in the team, who secretly ran over and pulled out the ghost dagger on Austin's chest while Ritter was entangled with the female thief, which happened to save his life.
Austin grinned and screamed, and when he regained consciousness, he opened his eyes, and after seeing the terrible five-centimeter-long wound on his chest, he almost fainted without determination. Fortunately, he didn't forget that he was still in danger at the moment, and tried to cheer up, dragging his seriously injured body backwards with his hands and feet.
As he moved, Austin heard a 'huh' behind him, and he was sure that the moan came from the lady thief, and he was surprised that he was not dead.
Hmph, as long as Lao Tzu can survive this time, sooner or later he will take revenge for today!Austin swore viciously in his heart.
And at this moment, on the battlefield mixed together, Miss Thief is still at ease, not only easily avoiding the most ferocious Ritter every time, but also using the blade to solve Pete, who has competed with Austin, as for the remaining Karen and Mandington, the two of them have no will to fight at all, especially Karen, who took the dagger that looks like a treasure, and has long been thinking about how to sell his teammates in order to fight for a chance to escape.
But Miss Thief had already set her eyes on him, and as a peer, she easily saw Karen's intention to slip away from Karen's slowly backward steps, and soon she let this little peer see what the gap between a fifth-level thief and a first-level thief was!
Backstabbing! A skill that can only be mastered by a thief who has reached the level 4 level, which can make the caster go around the enemy's rear like lightning to carry out a surprise attack! And the female thief, with her superb comprehension of this skill, cast it empty-handed, and heard a series of bones cracking, and Karen's entire spine was broken inch by inch with the midpoint of the vest.
He can't make it!Austin thought silently.
The situation was the same as Austin expected, Karen died after spitting out a large mouthful of blood choking on her lungs, although the backstab just now did not directly pierce the body, the huge impact force broke the spine and the internal organs at the same time!
Motella bless, I must get through this time! The ferocity of the female thief filled Austin's heart with despair, and he couldn't even walk at this time, so he could only pray for Lady Luck to take care of him over and over again.
Perhaps the noble goddess really heard Austen's prayer and took pity on him for once. Suddenly, there was a loud vibration above the cave, as if a giant beast was stamping on top of his head, and after being startled, Austin quickly turned to surprise that it was reinforcements arriving! Not only Austin, but also Ritter and Mandington smiled.
The female thief saw that something was wrong from the surprise of her prey, she quickly retrieved the dagger from the dead Karen's hand, and then began to whisper the spell, the 'levitation' and 'light body technique' were soon blessed on her body, she slowly floated from the ground, and then kicked the cave wall with her foot, and the whole person rushed out like a sharp arrow. Her goal is the exit of the cave, and she wants to hide back into the complicated sewers.
The reinforcements came quickly, and I don't know what they used, but after the loud vibration, Austin saw that the rocks on the top of the cave began to turn into mud and fall, it must have been a spell again!
The female thief has a wide range of knowledge, and hurriedly turned her head to take a look at it and judged that this was a fifth-level spell 'Fossil to Mud', and the arrival of a high-level mage made her pace speed up a lot, and a few breaths disappeared from people's field of vision.
At this time, reinforcements also appeared, and the first to jump down was a knight with blonde hair as dazzling as the sun, who stabilized his body and looked around a little and frowned, obviously dissatisfied with the poor environment of the sewers. Then a middle-aged man in a gray robe who looked like a mage fell, and he didn't show any dissatisfaction, but curiously glanced at the few people who had survived.
"And where did the thief go?" said Eric looking at Ritter, who had apparently known each other.
"Over there. Ritter pointed quickly with his hand, but the thief was gone.
Eric's brow furrowed even more until the mage who accompanied him spoke, "Don't worry, Eric Knight, she can't run away, she left enough traces here for me to perform the tracking spell." "
After the mage finished speaking, he took out a scroll with a green pattern from the scroll bag on his waist, which he had copied in advance, and he recited the spell quickly, and the dry syllables seemed to have a rhythm in his mouth, without the slightest stiffness when Rhett recited the spell.
Soon a magical scene appeared after the mage finished casting the spell, and the glowing green dots began to appear in mid-air, and these faint points of light finally converged into a clear route, which was the path that the female thief had just fled.
"You see, she can't run away, can she? But it seems that you still need a flying skill, and the 'road' ahead is not easy to walk. The mage smiled confidently.
Eric also discovered what had passed on the path formed by the tracking technique, and his face suddenly became extremely gloomy, "Then please trouble you again, Master, please bless me with the flying technique, and I will pay you separately in the end." "
The mage suddenly smiled even more happily, he liked a customer like Eric who had a lot of money, and a hundred gold coins were so easy to get his hands on!
After watching Eric fly away in an uncomfortable position, the mage turned to face Ritter, Mandington, and the weakened Austin, and finally stopped his gaze on Austin. "It's funny, an ordinary person was eroded by the breath of hell, and he didn't die immediately, your life is very hard. "
The mage's words made Austin very puzzled, the breath of hell, what the hell is that? his body was just stabbed, what does it have to do with the breath of hell?
His confusion was seen by the mage, but the mage was not ready to give him an answer, but smiled mysteriously, and finally gave him an even more inexplicable sentence. "Young man, if you are still sane in three days' time, come to me at the Navia Manor, ten miles south of the city, and I think you will need my help and guidance. "
"As for you two, now that your mission has been completed, take him up, and the bounty will go to John, and I'll go after Eric. "
After saying this, the mage ignored them, and instead focused on performing another flying spell on himself. The three Austin watched the mage leave, looking at each other, and they all realized a big problem: how should they get back to the surface?
Ritter coughed and was the first to speak: "I think we will wait here, there must be somewhere in the city above here, as long as we shout, someone will always hear, and when the time comes, as long as there is a rope, we can go up." It's Austin, it's been a long time, your injuries..."
After having the experience of fighting side by side, Ritter obviously regarded Austin as his own person, and even cared a little more in his words, after all, if it wasn't for Austin's desperate efforts to block the female thief, it would be difficult for him to hurt the other party, and the other party temporarily lost his weapon because of Austin, which was the key to his ability to pester the female thief until the reinforcements arrived.
Austin, who was asked, looked at the injury on his chest, grinned forcefully, and said, "It's okay, I can still hold it, Brother Ritter, you can just watch it." Now he wants to leave the sewer completely by others, and then he has to rely on someone to treat his injuries, so how happy is this big brother, anyway, his injuries are not fatal for the time being, but his injuries are not fatal, but his mind is always dizzy.
The rest of Mandington naturally had no opinion, because they almost danced with joy when they heard the mage's promise of a bounty to be received, even if they waited a little longer, he was the only one of the three who could use the sewers as a nest.
Maybe Austin was really transferred today, and Rhett raised his voice and shouted for less than two minutes, and there was a response from the top of the cave where the skylight was opened, and it was not anyone else, it was the old acquaintance John!
