Chapter 349: The Pursuers Are Approaching
It's unlikely that a veteran scholar who has spent his entire life studying magic will ride around on something like the Great Griffon, which is superior in combat and equally expensive to tame, and a flock of 20 griffons is worth a full-grown dragon, and only a mage who often needs to fight would raise such a creature.
Lu Kuan glanced at Will and cast his gaze ahead, only to see that on the gentle grassland, a few swaying black dots appeared, looking at the direction in which they were running, it seemed that the target was the three of them.
"A few wandering orcs, I'll deal with it,"
Lu Kuan took off his longbow and waved his hand at Rona next to him: "You go around and move on!" ”
After speaking, without waiting for Rona to react, Lu Kuan had already clamped his legs, and the speed of the radish immediately increased by a large margin, and he left the wolf behind him in a few big steps, and Dimi next to him was more relaxed, running like stepping on the wind under his feet, effortlessly.
"Hmph, this guy ......" Rona was ordered by Lu Kuan to bypass the monster, and immediately snorted twice in dissatisfaction.
"Captain Rhone, listen to the old deer,"
Will knew Lu Kuan's intentions, and persuaded him: "We must save time as much as possible, that velociraptor has a much faster foot than our wolf, this choice is the best." ”
"Humph!" Rona snorted, and finally pulled the reins, avoiding the monster in front of him, and walked around.
Rona understands very well in his heart, but seeing that the monster has to be bypassed, and it has to be solved by his teammates, Rona is quite unhappy and has itchy hands.
And this is not the first time, along the way, whether it was with the large army before, or after separation, almost all of the monsters encountered by small groups were taken care of by Lu Kuan.
The current battle, as Lu Kuan said, a few wandering orcs could not pose any threat to Lu Kuan, and just like before, Lu Kuan did not kill them all, leaving a living mouth.
Seeing the orc flee into the distance in embarrassment, Lu Kuan's eyes flashed, and then he turned his head to chase after Ronna's wolf.
In this way, the three-person team galloped all the way, killing and detouring as much as they could, and finally arrived at the foot of the low mountain before 11 o'clock in the morning.
Standing here and looking up, the towering mountains are magnificent, and not far from both sides, there are many small streams and small waterfalls, which converge into several rivers at the bottom of the mountain, and flow slowly towards the center of the sinkhole.
Rhona had dismounted and put his equipment back on, with the hammer and heavy axe hanging from his waist, and the rest of the mountain trail could only rely on his feet.
Will occupies the position of the original pair of axes and hammers of Rona - because of the inconvenience of his legs and feet, Rona can only carry Will on his back.
Seeing that Rona released the wolf to freedom, Lu Kuan also took the radish back to the pet space, took out two scrolls from his bag and shook them at Will: "Do you need cold-resistant scrolls?" ”
"No, no, I'll just use my own spells." Will hurriedly waved his hand.
"What else do you use to fight the cold, your physique is too poor~" Rona said disdainfully, raising his arm by the way, showing off his extremely developed muscles.
Lu Kuan and Will both laughed, praised a few words one after another, and turned Ronakua's nose to the sky.
Next, under Will's command, Lu Kuan and Rona followed a path with almost no traces and began to climb upward.
The mountain is not steep, and it is not difficult to climb up with Lu Kuan's current attributes, but the trouble is that the distance is too far, so the physical strength must be reasonably distributed.
When the team crossed a small mountain beam, the sound of a message prompt sounded in Lu Kuan's ears.
"Is Brother Deer here? There is an urgent message! The sound of the north arrow.
Lu Kuan glanced at it and directly established a voice call with the compass.
"Brother Deer! Someone posted on the forum just now, which said that in the early hours of this morning, someone saw a large group of cavalry from Fort Hernaron in the Valley of Refuge, does it have anything to do with your mission? ”
Lu Kuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Is the news true, what time is the morning, are there videos and pictures?" ”
"There are screenshots and short videos, the video is very short, but it is basically certain that it is the wolf cavalry of Haile Naron, all with flags, I took a closer look."
The compass said firmly: "According to the person who posted it, it should be around two o'clock in the morning." ”
Two o'clock in the morning......
Lu Kuan's expression did not change much, but his mind turned sharply: if it was a large army of cavalry, then the sentinels in front of the other party would definitely be much faster, maybe they were already approaching the low mountain.
Especially the guy Gascoigne......
"I see, this news is very important, you can inform me if there is any new information." Lu Kuan said briefly.
"Okay, Brother Lu, be careful." Compass said slightly excitedly.
The paladin knew the general content of Lu Kuan's mission, and when he thought that the first S+ pet would appear in the game soon, the compass couldn't help but be excited, and his body trembled slightly.
Lu Kuan hung up the call here and shared the news with his two teammates.
"These bastards, so fast?"
Rona couldn't help but be surprised, he originally heard Lu Kuan say that the wolf cavalry was fast, and thought that Lu Kuan was bragging, but he didn't expect the other party to catch up so quickly.
"It's okay, didn't Captain Deer have already arranged it?"
Will said in a relaxed tone, looking much more optimistic than Ronner: "Even if Gascoigne catches up, he will definitely chase after us." ”
Rona tugged at his beard, which was almost knotted with iron knots, and muttered, "Hmph, just how ...... you have in your hearts."
……
Dozens of miles north of the low mountain, in the bushes on the edge of a quagmire, an ogre was curled up on the ground, his stomach dripping with blood, and the torn wound was constantly gushing blood, forming a small red puddle on the ground.
The ogre, on the other hand, clutched his stomach tightly and looked at the enemy in horror.
To be precise, the ogre only saw a dazzling golden light, and couldn't tell the appearance of the person in front of him at all, the only thing it knew was that this guy's strength was very terrifying, almost one by one, and wiped out all the patrol teams he was in.
At this time, the ogre only felt the pain of the wound unbearable, and he couldn't move, and then, the golden scepter in the other party's hand was placed on its shoulder.
"Repeat what you just said." The ethereal voice came, making the ogre feel a little illusory, but the ogre didn't dare to wander at this time, and its companion had already proved the ruthlessness of the guy in front of him with his life.
"Yes, yes, the gang did separate...... Call...... A group of wolves rode to the low mountain, two ...... There were still three people, and a black wolf, and they walked that way,"
The ogre said, pointing to the southwest, and said conclusively, "I swear I didn't lie!" Please spare me......"
Before he could finish speaking, the ogre saw a flash of light, and the golden scepter moved slightly, and then the scene in front of him shattered piece by piece, and then the vision was dark.
The golden light on the mysterious man faded, revealing Gascoigne's grim face.
The white-clothed priest shook his wrist and threw all the blood on his scepter to the ground, revealing a look of disgust.
