Vol 11 Chapter 84: Rodent control (1)

The battle of the mouse hole ~ hole has really begun!
A quarter of an hour ago, as Qin Lun and the Dwarf Discovery Team left, the seven apostles, under the leadership of Mastasia, began to carefully approach the Rat Cave. ↗Vertical novel,
They were tight inside and outside, carrying the nightlights of Tyre, carrying the large and small parcels left by the dwarves, disguising the team as a small business trip to the dungeon.
Since the prehistoric times of the Valley, the Dark Elves failed in the Elven Crown War, and after moving into the dark areas with the Elves, they became the dwarfs and became the new generation of rulers in the underground world. .
However, after all, the dark area is no more than the surface world. There are not many resources here. Except for the stone, there are only stones left. Although the underground minerals are extremely rich, there are many biological nests, but compared with the surface world, it is basically a heaven and a ground.
The dark elves who used to live in luxury life, and their gods, can adapt to this change. Perhaps the abnormal psychological state of the drow and the spider can not withstand the inferiority of the dark area, and then slowly distorted.
The drow and the goddess Rose, who fell into the spider god, never forgot to counter the surface world one day.
They said that they missed the life on the surface and prepared for the future counterattack on the surface world. In short, after the establishment of numerous underground cities, the drow generally allowed the surface business to travel to and from the dungeon.
In the case of certain long-term cooperative caravans, the dungeons will also send escorts to them as appropriate.
Because some special products in the dark area are rare in the surface world, such as: various gems, dark creatures, nuclear weapons, dwarf slaves, etc., so as long as they do not die in the dark areas, the surface caravan There are often huge profits.
Therefore, although business travellers know that the drow are hard to trust, they are still eager to get around. Every year, many small business travelers venture into the dark areas and seek to trade with the dungeons.
The biggest problem encountered by the surface caravans in the dark areas is not the insidious drows of the drow, but the unknown danger along the way. Sometimes, a rat tribe in front of Weis and others can bring a small caravan to the catastrophe.
......
Although the apostles had already heard Gillim introduce the characteristics of the squid mushroom, they were shocked by the screaming screams after the first touch of the scorpion mushroom.
The sound of the pointed mushroom is a bit like the sound of the spout when the kettle is boiled. The sound of a single pointed mushroom is not a big deal, but when the first pointed mushroom is called, the vibration of the air quickly causes a chain reaction.
The whole piece of gray mushroom fields boiled up, and the apostles were pale, their feet were frivolous, and their ears creaked for a long time, and no other sound could be heard.
At this time, even if Weiss had some regrets, did not follow Mastasia's advice, stuffed a piece of cotton cloth in his ear.
Even though three rat sentinels ran out of the caves of the rats, the apostles still could not adapt to the sound of the pointed mushrooms, which made them look very embarrassed when dealing with the three rats.
However, the only advantage is that even if they don't have to act at this time, the Rat Sentinel believes that their weakness is not pretending. Soon a rat sentinel ran back to the cave and called the reinforcements, trying to get them all done.
After the second batch of adult rats appeared, the number has reached more than 20, and they also brought a mud monster. This muddy body is not too big, about two meters high, but the mud is small and big, and the radius of the chassis is almost two meters. Looking from afar, it is like a miniature version of a small hill.
There are no long legs in the mud, and the way it moves is that the chassis creeps forward and there are two huge arms on the side. There are three large stone toes in the front of the arm, which is like a hammer when the fist is fisted. The power is very strong.
The dwarf wounded that Qin Lun saw at the beginning was estimated to have been hammered by the mud in front of his chest, and this was ultimately dead.
Despite the large number of rats in the second batch, there were mud squads, but at this time, the caravans that the apostles pretended to have also stabilized their positions. Although they did not harass the sentinel sentinel at this time, they have already withdrawn the influence of the squid.
Once the mind is unaffected, the apostles are able to perform even if they face more than 20 rats.
However, the apostles did not release water in the dark. They even broke out after a stable position, killing the five rats that rushed to the front, and then fled and fled to the direction of the woodland.
In Gilliam's introduction, they already knew that the Rat is a very timid, cautious and awkward creature.
Since it is a smart creature, the rats have their own ability to observe and judge. If they are seen to be flawed, the apostles can no longer seduce the other rats of the rat cave. After all, the more than 20 rats in front are only this tribe. A small number of members.
The reason is that they have completely destroyed the previous group of dwarf exploration teams. According to this calculation, the Rat tribe has at least hundreds of adult soldiers.
Marsta and Weiss’s judgments were not wrong. After discovering that the existing forces could not win the caravan and that no other enemies were found nearby, the adult soldiers in the caves of the rats flooded.
However, at this time the rats finally showed their blackmail.
Qin Lun and others stood on the heights to see that the rats that came out of the nest were divided into three teams. One team of more than 20 joined the previous attack team, while the other two teams began to wander around and surrounded Marsta. Xia et al.
The overall number of rats has risen to more than one hundred, and two priests in the team holding wooden sticks, and several cave thieves who have gone out of the cave to eliminate the body shape, so that Qin Lun, etc. People can't help but squeeze a cold sweat for the former companion.
Fortunately, Hill used telepathy to quickly provide the situation observed by Qin Lun to the team leader Mastasha, so that everyone does not have to worry about developments.
Unexpectedly, the master of the harpist, after learning that the rats intended to surround them, decided to count them, and waited for the rats to succeed, and then forcibly broke through.
There are two advantages to this. The rats are not yet successful, and they are striding back, which is easy to cause doubts. At the same time, stepping into the ambush circle too early, this group of rats can not be wiped out.
After the rats were encircled, they would be forced to break through. The Rats will no longer doubt the existence of an ambush, and thus confidently step into the ambush circle of the dwarves.
Of course, the risks and benefits of doing so are just as obvious. There are too many rats in this group, and the mud, strangers, priests, thieves... attack, defense, and auxiliary team iron triangle professional perfection. Once the breakout fails, the ambush companions have to show up in advance.
In that case, not only will the bait plan fail, but the Dwarf Discovery Team will continue to waste a lot of time in this place. Perhaps they could finally destroy the Rat Tribe, but the price paid at that time was too great, and they did not know how much time the apostles could stay.
What surprised Qin Lun again was that Weiss agreed with Mastasia’s plan without hesitation. It seems that this high-ranking apostle is still confident about the strength of his team.
As for Hill and Rand, Qin Lun is not worried about them at all. Hill has a spirit of sucking strange blood, and the few talents he has acquired are the nemesis of the lower underground creatures of the rat. And Rand's large-scale fire system skills are enough to allow him to support the reinforcements in any critical situation.
The development of the follow-up state was completely under the control of Marstad and others, but the intensity of the battle made the Qin Lun and others who watched the war open their eyes.
Among the small teams, the first to show the color is the Weiss team's shield guard. This tall, human defender carrying a large tower shield shows the true value of the team mt.
In the battle, his two core competencies played a vital role, one is the scope control technology "war horn", and the other is the range defense technology "reload shield".
The war horn is the promotion skill of the warrior's trenches. Every time the war horn of the shield guards, the encirclement formed by the rat and the mud monster will be trapped and forced to appear a gap.
The mouse priest in charge of the command finally had to divide the encirclement into two layers to avoid being disrupted by this small caravan.
The reloading shield is the most outstanding one among the range defense techniques that Qin Lun has seen. When this shield strikes, there will be more than a dozen afterimages on both sides of the shield. Each residual image seems to have some power of the body.
After reloading the shield, the rats in front of the shield will be completely hit, and even the mud monster will be paralyzed for a long time before they can re-enter the battle. It can be said that if it is not for the shield to have these two skills, it is difficult to say how long the defensive formation of this small team can last under the attack of the Rat Warrior.
Under the efforts of Shield, including Mastasia and other apostles, they have shown their strength.
The female apostle of the Weiss team finally revealed her apostolic career. She was a pastor who was more like a pastor than Hill. Her every healing light is just right, so that the most stressed shield can relieve fatigue in time and quickly restore combat effectiveness.
With the existence of the sacred priest, Hill no longer uses the semi-hanger restoration magic, but shows the ability to attack as a chaotic priest, with a purple and black ray beam in his hand.
Every rat who is touched by purple or black rays wants to roll in pain and completely lose the fighting power. If so, it will fall silently to the ground and die directly.
The Chaos Priest is the priest's promotion class. When the first priest is a pastor, Hill's mastery is mostly some magical and low-level laws. When he was promoted to the second-order chaotic priest, the horror ability of this professional line began to appear.
The purple rays emitted by Hill are "dark words: pain", and the black rays are high "genuine: annihilation".
"Dark Words: Pain" is a judgment on the will, and a creature that cannot pass, will feel unparalleled pain within a certain period of time.
"Mantra: annihilation" is even more horrible. This is a direct judgment of the biological physique. If it cannot be judged, it will die directly.
Of course, these two chaotic prayers are extremely expensive, and the upper limit of judgment is related to Hill's own will and physique. If it is in front of the same-order creature, it is not as effective as the low-level rat.
In addition to Hill, the performance of the other two remote careers in the team can only be said to be quite satisfactory. Marsta's arrow skills are not applied to the maximum extent. She also needs to observe the situation and control the overall situation.
Robe, the black robe, then throws a few fireballs from time to time, while paying attention to the actions of the opposing priests. He must often interrupt the recovery of the two priests.
First, in order not to let them concentrate, observe the surrounding environment, and secondly, try to suppress the results of the rat priests to treat the seriously injured rats, and reduce the pressure for the later battles.
In contrast, Rand and the thieves have a special role, they basically do not cooperate with other people. The two were combined to deal with several thieves in the tribe of the Rat.
Rand purposefully blasted a small lava ball. The fire caused by the small lava ball did not hurt much, but the coverage was large, which could break the sneak thief. Once the thief of the mouse is exposed, the monkey will immediately wrap it up, fight for a wave of explosions, repel and even kill the thief.
The two basically guarantee that this small team will not be destroyed by the thieves and thieves to destroy the defensive formation ~EbookFREE.me~ so that it can last for a long time.
The only one who did not exercise combat duties was Weiss, who had the strongest team. The high-ranking apostle played a savage and sinister businessman role at this time.
In his mouth, he swears the swearing words that no one can understand. He scolds the companions who pretend to be mercenaries of the caravans, and he also dances indiscriminately, but everyone who cooperates with them does not care about him.
Weiss succeeded in letting the rats further dispel their doubts and concentrated all their forces to trap them. At this time, as time went by, the rat caves continued to join the encirclement, and the number rose to more than 130. Qin Lun and others even saw the edge of the encirclement, a few obviously underage rats.
This rat tribe was finally slowly squeezed out of all strength by Marstaff et al. Qin Lun believes that the tribes will be encircled. This tribe will not be able to recover for a long time, and naturally it will not be able to interfere with the follow-up dwarf exploration team.
Although the fighting is fierce, Mastasia still notices that the situation is moving in the direction they expect. She took the opportunity to cancel the breakout plan, and so war and retreat, tempting the many rats around them to slowly move to the dwarf's ambush circle...
