Chapter 27 Fierce battle (please vote for me, please collect it, please recommend me)
The battle went smoothly.
A honeycomb bomb and a charged Igni flame blew the water ghosts to pieces. Not only did they successfully kill five or six water ghosts, but they also successfully blocked their arrogant momentum.
However, the more stupid a creature is, the less able it is to judge the strength gap between the two sides.
Those water ghosts who were not affected by the explosion and flames still had no fear at all. They avoided their seriously injured companions and continued to rush towards him with their teeth and claws bared.
Wayne jumped off the railing and returned to the top of the stairs. He did not immediately raise his sword to defend, but took a few steps to the exit of the stairs, formed a seal with one hand, pushed down, and placed an Arden at the exit of the stairs. Magic trap.
The purple magical radiance instantly drew a circular ancient magic circle on the ground.
Wayne didn't feel any discomfort standing on it, but if those water ghosts rushed in, they would be immediately affected by the magic circle and bound by the chaotic magic power inside, seriously slowing down their movement speed.
Although this seal will not cause direct damage to monsters within the range, its special effect is very suitable for defensive operations in this advantageous terrain. It is suitable for demon hunters to deal with ghosts, demons and the like. It is light and fast. The first choice of monsters.
The only pity is that due to material problems, both Geralt and Wayne only have one honeycomb bomb on them. Otherwise, if they bury a few on this path that the monsters must pass, they might be able to blow up one of them directly. the most part of.
Wayne was calm and waiting for the monsters to arrive, when he suddenly heard a huge explosion behind him.
With a quick glance, he discovered that Geralt also used a similar method to him to get the honeycomb bomb to detonate among the water ghosts.
However, the White Wolf's Igni Seal could not attack as far away as Wayne. He waited until the water ghosts rushed to the entrance of the stairs, and then directly detonated it by lighting the fuse and throwing the bomb.
This also resulted in him being quite close to the explosion. The power of the honeycomb bomb directly splashed the mud at the bottom of the pond, the river water, and the flesh and blood of a few unlucky water ghosts everywhere, directly drenching Geralt to death. A drowned rat.
But no matter how embarrassed they were, when the explosion ended and the swarms of water ghosts rushed up the stairs, Wayne and Geralt had to pick up weapons and fight against these monsters that exuded the smell of corpses.
As a veteran, Geralt has long been accustomed to such battles. He didn't care about the mud and flesh splashed on his body. He stepped closer to a rushing water ghost, knocked away the arm it grabbed with his shoulder, and raised it high. The silver sword slashed diagonally towards its head.
The silver sword in the white wolf's hand was slightly fluorescent. It was a slender and graceful sword engraved with various mysterious inscriptions. When it slashed at the water ghost's face, there was almost no obstruction and it flew away in an instant. Half of its head.
After successfully killing a water ghost with one blow, Geralt did not hesitate and turned around to avoid the attack of another water ghost. The silver sword drew a perfect arc and struck another one. On the chest of a water ghost.
The sharp blade directly cut open a wound more than one meter long in its chest. The huge force directly made the water ghost wailing and fell to the ground. You could even see the beating internal organs through the wound. .
However, before this water ghost could die, more water ghosts surged up from the stairs.
They didn't care at all about their fellow beings who were chopped down on the ground. They stretched out their claws and roared towards Geralt.
Although Geralt's dodging skills were agile and experienced, and he dodged several attacks from water ghosts one after another, the large number of monsters surrounding him undoubtedly reduced the space for him to dodge.
As the two sides fought behind each other, the space for each other to move became smaller and smaller. Geralt had to frequently cast Quen's Sign, while dodging and exchanging injuries for injuries, and successfully killed the monsters surrounding him.
Fortunately, although these water ghosts are ferocious, they are almost at the lowest level among monsters. Their claws may be able to scratch human flesh, but they cannot break through metal armor.
In front of the experienced white wolf Geralt, in the end, all he could do was leave large and small bruises on non-lethal parts of his body.
Wayne's battle situation was completely different from Geralt's. When the water ghosts rushed up from the stairs one after another, the first thing they encountered was the Arden trap used to slow down.
Wayne stood in the center of the trap and did not have direct contact with the water ghost. He knew his advantage very well. Whenever a water ghost broke through the trap and wanted to attack him.
Wayne will rely on his agility to roll away from the water ghost's attack.
Once two or three water ghosts have gathered in the magic circle, he will stretch out his left hand and use a powerful Alder seal that has been strengthened to knock the water ghosts away towards the rock wall, making them smaller. His body hit the wall hard. Finally, when these water ghosts fell to the ground, he rolled over to them and stabbed their heads directly with the silver sword.
Of course, this roundabout way of fighting not only takes a long time, but also consumes a lot of chaos magic power in the body, so it is not suitable for most demon hunters.
However, with the blessing of the swallow potion and the tawny owl potion in his body, Wayne had just enough chaotic magic power in his body, and he could even find time to use the Yaksi Seal to confuse one or two water ghosts and cause infighting among them. Disrupt the attack rhythm of the water ghosts.
In this way, the high-intensity battle lasted for more than twenty minutes.
Geralt, who chose to fight hand-to-hand, ended the battle first. Panting heavily, he held the silver sword stained with blood and filth in the hollow of his arm and wiped off the blood.
Then he gritted his teeth, grinned, and walked step by step towards Wayne, who was still fighting.
When he walked into Wayne's vicinity, the battle here was also coming to an end. One of the last three water ghosts was controlled by Wayne's Axi Sisi. Regardless of the danger of having its belly ripped open, it bit him hard. on a companion.
But Wayne, the master who controlled it, was merciless and directly used a powerful Igni seal, causing the fierce flames to directly cover the three water ghosts.
Out of an instinctive fear of flames and high temperatures, the water ghost whose belly was broken broke free from the control of the Yakshi seal, and was on fire, wailing and struggling wildly.
However, before it was buried in the flames that enveloped its whole body, a slender silver sword, like a meteor, instantly pierced its eye socket, and then turned the brain in the skull into a paste.
Geralt stood aside and observed Wayne's battle. When he saw that although his armor was covered with dust, there were no signs of being hit by monsters, he couldn't help but praise him.
"Wayne."
"Although your fighting style is like a donkey rolling on the ground, which is very unseemly." "
But I have to praise your prudence and caution."
He rubbed his hands that were covered with water ghosts. The pain from the first hit to the ribs made the white wolf grin.
"Even an old demon hunter like me would be beaten all over his body when facing so many water ghosts." "
But you survived such a fierce war unscathed. This is undoubtedly something worthy of praise. Things."
Hearing Geralt's approval, Wayne turned back and wiped the dust from his face with his hands that were not stained with blood.
He grinned and was about to chat and joke with Geralt when his eyes suddenly focused and he noticed a fuzzy and hazy gas appearing behind Geralt.
A stooped, ugly monster with strong limbs and sharp claws emerged from the gas.
Before the white wolf could react, the monster's sharp claws had been raised high, and it came down with a speed as fast as cracking a mountain and cracking rocks.
"Get away! Geralt!"
Wayne shouted instinctively, formed a seal with his left hand, pushed forward suddenly, and the Alder Seal instantly hit the monster that suddenly appeared.
The attack happened too suddenly. Although Geralt made dodges at Wayne's reminder and left the fatal neck position, he still suffered a severe blow from the sharp claws on his back.
"Ah!"
With a scream, the famous white wolf Geralt was severely knocked away.
