The battle continued until dusk.

The Ice Blast' detonates the ice wall, turning it into countless ice powders that spread on the rocky ground like winter snow.

The group of Ying Li, Noah, and Shirley Newman on the side are also running out of mana, if the sandstone knotworms continue to drill out of the stone wall like this, Senior Dylan is ready to open the directional portal, and we will evacuate from this battlefield and find a chance to return to the mountaintop portal.

Thankfully, there were no more rampaging sandstone artworms coming out of the wormholes.

On the icy rocky ground, I saw through the refraction of a piece of broken ice that my face had become pale and transparent because the mana in the magic pool had been nearly exhausted, and I could almost see the cyan blood vessels under my skin.

Not far away, the Rand Knight and his team of constructed knights were still like a wall, blocking the sandstone knotworms crawling out of the rock wall on the east side, and there were already dozens of insect corpses lying under their feet, and the battle was nearing the end.

One of the constructed knights lay limply behind a rock with his arm corroded by the acid spewing from the sandstone knotworm. This team of constructed knights has reached the limit of their physical strength, and they have long since given up the knight light shield in their hands, so as not to waste unnecessary physical strength, and the sword in their hands will pierce into the bones of the sandstone knotworm every time it is accurately stabbed.

A bone spur emerged from the back of the sandstone knotworm, Justus attached to the sandstone knotworm's body, allowing the sandstone knotworm to take him to a height of more than ten meters, and the dozens of bone spurs that swelled out under the ribs of Justus, who turned into a half-kraken, all pierced into the belly of the sandstone knotworm, the abdomen of the sandstone knotworm burst open, and Justes fell from mid-air to the rocky ground.

This is Miss Cherry's current situation is also very bad, the moment she caught Justes' falling body, the two of them hugged each other and rolled over on the rocky ground more than ten meters away, although Justes forcibly withdrew the bone spurs on his body before he fell unconscious, but Miss Cherry was still scratched by the bone spurs.

Caterina held the dagger in both hands, the magic pattern of the 'Demon Serpent's Fang' gave her the agility magic of 'Wind Grace', 'Light Heart' and 'Light Body Technique', her body was hidden in a fog of nothingness, wherever she appeared, the sandstone knotworm's body would be pierced out of a huge blood hole, and the elusive figure would be erratic on the battlefield.

She is like a panther waiting for an opportunity, always killing with one hit.

Only this kind of hard battle can measure the limit of a warrior's physical potential, Katarina, Minotaur Ruka, and Karantso, who have the first top magic pattern formation, are obviously much stronger than the others, and even the battle-hardened Rand Knight and his team of constructed knights have to bow down.

An excellent set of demonic pattern constructs can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of a warrior, and I have to say that the three sets of demonic pattern constructs designed by Yerkes scholars himself, such as "Snake Demon Fang", "Giant Bear Power", and "Earth Shield", are all top-level constructs that warriors dream of.

Seeing Caterina shuttling across the battlefield like a mist and shadow, Miss Cherry's eyes once again showed envy.

In the midst of the rubble, the last sandstone knotworm fell down in front of Ruka, the moonblade axe in Luka's hand was stained with pale yellow liquid, and the pure gold demon pattern heavy armor on his body was inserted with several sandstone arthropods, blood and sweat were mixed together, and the insect corpses on the ground under his feet made this not too big rock wall as terrifying as the Shura field.

Sticking the double-edged sword in his hand into the rocky ground, Karantso untied a water bladder from his waist, pulled up the cork cover, and poured the water of a water bladder head-on, washing away the blood of the sandstone knotworms on his body, and the water flowed down his face.

She sat on a large rock on the battlefield, stepping on a sandstone knotworm corpse under her combat boots, reached out to untie her armguard, took out a roll of hemostatic bandage, and bandaged the wound on her arm, more than half of the sandstone knotworms in this area were killed by Karantso, and the number of sandstone knotworms she killed with one person was almost equal to the number of knots killed by all members of the Constructed Knight team.

Working with Ruka the Minotaur, she has little to worry about the enemies behind her, and she can leave the sandstone knotworm behind her to Ruka to deal with.

The knights in the Rand Knights' construction squad looked at Karantso with awe in their eyes.

......

The ice was melting on the rocky ground all around, and the carcasses of many sandstone arthropods were washed away by the icy water on the rocky ground, slowly flowing into the ravines of the mountain, and Justes and Miss Cherry walked up to me with each other in their arms, and they looked very embarrassed.

Miss Cherry, who did not have a magic pattern, was not lightly injured, I hurriedly stepped forward, and helped Miss Cherry to sit down with Justus, Helena took out a water bladder to clean the wound on Miss Cherry's shoulder, and bandaged it with a hemostatic bandage, and finally I tore open a scroll of 'hydrotherapy', and a pure white magical light floated on Miss Cherry's body, and her teeth bit her lips bloody.

"The 'hydrotherapy' of the Wizard Jiga always gives me a very special feeling. Although Miss Cherry's face was a little pale, her eyes fell on me, and she squinted at me.

"Oh, how would it feel?" I asked her curiously.

"There are also water mages in our Bena legion, and I have also been treated by water mages, but their 'hydrotherapy' does not have the effect of Jijia mages, it is a continuous healing effect, which lasts for a long time, after all, I am a top student of the Royal Academy of Magic. Miss Cherry said to me.

She is a delicate but very rational woman, and she is also a practical and principled female swordsman, she has always taken her understanding of kendo as a life guideline, and it is because of her rationality that she usually trusts her own judgment.

I was a little surprised that she could perceive the difference in the effect of the 'hydrotherapy' that had been blessed on her, and I pondered for a moment and said to her, "...... Probably because of the high level of 'hydrotherapy' magic skills, when I was in the War College before, I would only have such a 'hydrotherapy', at that time, just in time for the storm bear tribe barbarians to invade Sloit Province, our city of El was not spared, a large number of barbarians surrounded our city, and the warriors held on to the city day and night, and there were a large number of casualties in every siege battle, and there were many people killed and injured at that time, so the Academy of Magic organized a field medical team. ”

"At that time, all the water magicians in the academy had to join the medical team, and many warriors were sent in every day, and we would empty the magic pool several times a day, and we would use hundreds of hydrotherapy techniques every day, maybe you didn't know, hey, I guess many water magicians didn't realize this either, that is, when the hydrotherapy technique was performed a certain number of times, the magic effect would have a qualitative leap. ”

"Practicing magic skills, for other water magicians, is a very long process, maybe the level of magic skills has not been improved, this magician has advanced from a magic apprentice to become an excellent magician, he continues to become stronger, the power of magic will also increase, at this time, everyone will inevitably ignore the magic effect brought by the increase in the level of magic skills. ”

"In that winter, the water magic apprentices in our medical team had to perform hydrotherapy all day long, and later, I was a scroll maker, and I would make some magic scrolls every day, because the water magic skills were highly proficient, and the success rate of making magic scrolls was close to 100%, so I made a lot of 'hydrotherapy' magic scrolls. ”

"This is also the main reason for the high level of the 'Hydrotherapy' magic skill. ”

I've drawn at least a thousand 'hydrotherapy' magic scrolls, but no one has ever raised this issue so firmly.

I was chatting with Miss Cherry about hydrotherapy and healing Jastes, although he had been greatly strengthened in all aspects of his body after turning into a half-kraken, but he was inevitably injured when fighting the Sandstone Worm, which made Justus a little depressed, and I knew that he was very envious of the magic pattern on Karantso and Ruka.

On the 'Slave Trader', Justes competes and competes with the Minotaur almost every day, Ruka is gentle by nature, and he is very measured when he fights, and he will deliberately suppress his strength, which will always make Justes feel that if he wants to defeat Ruka, it is just a little bit close, and in those days, Just's fighting skills have improved greatly every day.

Later, Justus found Karantso again, as a wolf orc female warrior, when they were learning from each other, out of respect for Justes, Karantso had no way to hide his strength, Karantso is a strength female warrior, her strength advantage is great, every time she fights, she will have obvious power suppression of Justus.

Justes continued to progress and grow on the 'Slave Trader', he originally thought that the gap between himself and Ruka and Karantso was not big, and they were also warriors of the mid-turn level, although Karantso and Ruka were warriors with orc talent, but they were not bad, and they had the strong physique of a half-kraken.

But through this bitter battle with the sandstone knotworm, he clearly realized that the real strength of Karantso and Minotaur Ruka, with the advantage of the magic pattern construction, almost two of them blocked the attack rhythm of the sandstone knotworm on one side of the stone wall.

In fact, he didn't know that Karantso and the Minotaur Ruka had bathed in dragon blood on the shores of the Black Forest Lake in the Hiero plane, and even if they didn't wear demonic patterns, it would be difficult for them to be hurt by an ordinary level of attack.

"Jijia, you said that the Grimm Empire's Constructed Knights are really that powerful?"

“...... Probably. ”

Actually, what I want to say is this: the Imperial knights with the Demonic Pattern Construct are not the most powerful, the Orc Warriors with the Demonic Pattern Construct are the most powerful.

At the beginning of the era of the Great Melee, the heroes of the human race realized that the human knights and warriors of the same level were always the weaker side than the orc warriors or elven guards, the orcs had a strength advantage and a strong 'self-healing' physique, and the elves had hundreds of years of fighting experience and ancient magic inheritance.

In fact, the reason why these magic pattern structures were born is to make up for the physical defects of the human knights, and these magic pattern structures are a kind of magic equipment born by some great magicians of human beings imitating the magic armor of the elves.

The warriors of the orc tribe prefer to move away from the power of their ancestors and the power of the totem to fight, and they do not have this powerful demonic pattern armor, so when the orc warriors are equipped with the demonic pattern, the power they have has changed significantly.

Just like the orc warrior Karantso, her current strength is only at the mid-level level, that is, she is only a fifteenth-level warrior, but when she wears the 'Giant Bear Power' demonic pattern construct, her power will be infinitely close to the level of a first-turn peak warrior, and even far surpass the nineteenth-level constructing knight like Rand Knight.

We rested in place for a while, and everyone began to clean up the battlefield, the hard shells of these sandstone knotworms are some low-level magic materials, but this level of low-level magic materials, we have no eyes, and no one cares about them on the battlefield, as for the acid rot solution in the sandstone knotworm poison sac, it is also a magic material, but these acid rot solutions need special containers to hold, for those of us who are used to hunting sea beasts on the tide island on weekdays, these magic materials are obviously some chicken ribs, chicken ribs without meat。

So after some consideration, I decided not to waste time collecting these things, but just smashed open the head of the sandstone knotworm and took out the magic core inside.

The biggest regret is that a constructed knight lost an arm, and his knight's light shield was also corroded by the acid solution to the point that only the skeleton remained, but under the treatment of my hydrotherapy magic, there was finally no danger to his life, after all, he was a first-turn constructed knight, and his own physique was also quite strong, and the injured constructed knight was sent back to the 'Slave Trader' by us, and Joan also ended this thrilling expedition and returned to the Belan.

We rested for the night aboard the Slave Trader, and before dawn, we returned to the floating island of the Mountain Dragon Turtle.

After the battle subsided, the sandstone knotworms that lurked in the rock formations were much more honest, and they no longer came out of the rock formations to trouble us.

We are also happy to live in peace like this, and continue to search for the Pirate King's treasure on the back of the mountain dragon turtle.

We searched the entire mountain, but found nothing, and then we went to find the second of the three peaks, which was significantly shorter than the main peak, and we searched carefully from the bottom to the top along the cracked ravine in the turtle shell......
