XLIV. What would happen to the world if the gnolls would level up?
All along, the impression left by the jackals can be described in three words: brutal, stupid, and trampled. ใ
The first two words express the most intuitive expression of the habits and abilities of the jackals - the only thing this cruel and intelligent humanoid creature usually has to do is to tear and devour any living creature that dares to set foot in its territory, but when these creatures surround in groups, it is impossible for any low-level adventurer to please lightly.
And the last word indicates the survival status of this creature on the Great 6 of Azerohi - in fact, the overall level of the gnolls in the entire world of Azerohi is below level 2o, and there are occasionally a few high-level gnolls infested, and most of them have become puppets of necromantic creatures after being infected by the plague of the undead scourge.
Perhaps, in the eyes of the vast majority of adventurers, the gnoll and the fish-man are just inferior species that can be equated for low-level adventurers to earn experience and bounties, and this concept may have gradually become ingrained in the nearly 10,000-year history of the world of Azerohi.
However, no one has ever wondered why such a stupid, brutal and low-IQ creature has survived for so long in the complex, changeable, dangerous and ill-fated world of Azerohi, like an unbeatable little powerhouse, no matter what kind of predicament and dangerous situation it encounters, it can always quietly breed and multiply like a weed after a wildfire, and finally become a group of victims again.
If the survival philosophy of the fish-people lies in the unpleasant cries and the number of groups, the trolls can reproduce for thousands of years because of their mysterious beliefs and strong regenerative power. So, why have gnolls survived like cockroaches since ancient times?
Now, Gao He finally understands.
That's because...... People have always understood the gnolls wrongly.
These guys are stupid, stupid, and their usual appearance is indeed useless, but this does not mean that ...... There is no strong man among the gnolls!
It's like the team of five gnolls that Gao He is facing now, and the strength of each of them is to beat a carload of people in a minute, and it may be too much of an exaggeration to say that they are comparable to demigods, but. At least these five gnolls. Every one pulled out can be called a real "jackal hero"!
And now, when the humans, the orcs, the minotaurs, the dragons, and the forsaken, the five have also reached the heroic level of the existence zร i. Suddenly encountered such a strong team. When you are also a Heroic enemy. If you don't do your best, there will only be one result, and that is ...... Annihilation!
It can't go on like this!
And it's not just Gao and one person who realizes this. In fact, as the most experienced and powerful member of the team, the Beastmaster Lexar was the first to launch an all-out counterattack in the true sense of the word.
As an animal tamer hero, Lexar sacrificed the ability to attack with ranged weapons in favor of two throwing axes in her hand, as well as a strong affinity with beasts.
The so-called affinity here does not just refer to the simple initial stage where a trainer can tame multiple pets, but to indicate ...... Rexar has the ability to "call and command multiple pets in the same battle"!
"Ahh......h What a hassle, Misha, I'll leave that nasty guy over there to you, Hofer, help me stop that kobold running around...... Well? Or is it a jackal man? All right...... No matter what that guy is...... Sbillet, find me that guy who is hiding, oh...... I seem to have forgotten something......"
Seeing that after summoning three pets, including the War Eagle, the Fighting Pig and the Giant Bear, Lexa herself suddenly became idle, and Takaha who had just escaped from the coma of dispersal shooting was almost angry.
"What are you waiting for, take the opportunity to kill one first!"
"Ah...... That's why I'm the one who is most afraid of trouble......"
At Gao He's urging, Rexa finally moved lazily.
While Misha the Giant Bear entangles the flesh bullet that has escaped from his confessional state, Sbille the Eagle chases after the fangs and bites, and Hofer the Pig rushes towards the cunning Flesh Tearer, Lexa chooses not any of the three, but ...... Marte, who has been fighting her head-on? Mentally retarded!
It is worth mentioning that Malte? The strength of the mentally handicapped in the battle absolutely did not match its name, which seemed to be mentally retarded enoughโon the contrary, this cunning gnolla actually suppressed Lexar head-on in the previous one-on-one battle!
However, it can do more than that, when Lexar really gets serious and launches a frontal attack on the other party with a throwing axe, Maltai? The mentally handicapped suddenly smiled and took out a handful of ...... from his arms Muskets!
This guy ...... It's not melee attacks that I'm best at!
"Bang! Bang bang! โ
At the same time as three consecutive shots forced back the attacking Lexa, the gnolls quickly pulled out a glittering prop from his arms.
It was almost in the blink of an eye in Gao He, and the next moment of life made his eyeballs almost fall to the ground!
"That's ...... Mirroring?! Don't you shackle, huh?! โ
That's right, it was in this brief moment that the original gnolls were actually split into two, two Maltes? The mentally handicapped split the two sides and fired a musket at Lexar at the same time!
"Ahh......h The troublesome guy got even more troublesome......"
For a while, even if it was as strong as Lexa, it could only stand left and right, relying on the axe side of the throwing axe in his hand to resist the projectiles that came from left and right - from this alone, it can be judged that it is definitely not an ordinary doppelganger or mirror image, Maltai on both sides? The attack of the mentally handicapped has almost the same power!
The situation that had just been alleviated with Lexa's pet, because Maltai? The sudden explosion of the mentally handicapped became precarious again, but at this moment, what Gao He was thinking about was not to relieve Lexa immediately. It's another, more critical thing.
"To open up the situation...... You can only start with it! โ
That's right, after his previous unsuccessful attempt to attack and tear the flesh, Gao He's chosen target for attack was none other than the Jackal Prophet who was also not targeted by any pets or enemies, squatting leisurely in his totem array and chanting healing spells...... Seger!
This gnoll, who has a similar name to Hogg but has very different abilities from each other, is probably the most powerful gnoll spellcaster Gao He has ever seen...... Well, in fact, there are very few individuals among the gnolls who have mastered the ability to cast spells, and the guy in front of him, named Sege, is undoubtedly the most outstanding of these gnolls.
None of them. From the beginning of the battle to the present. Only the occasional words of this guy in the battle showed his first-class wisdom, and even Gao He had already noticed the previous battle plan of these jackals. It is likely that it was also formulated by it.
"Tearing the meat...... Poison fangs...... Don't mind those brutes. Attack those two paladins...... I hate those lights. โ
Soon. When Seg gave a new order, both the Gnoll Hunter and the Assassin, who were haunted by Lexar's pets, began to try to bypass and dodge the beasts that were pestering them. Attack the paladin Atola, who has already joined up with Takawa.
"Atola."
"What...... What's up? โ
"Entangle these two guys, I'll try to kill that gnoll......"
While Gao He whispered to Atora, he also gave orders to the other side, a slightly overwhelmed Onexian and the cow Jasmine.
"Pay attention to healing my health, and ...... Onexia, do you have any status spells or ways to limit your enemies? โ
"Hmm...... Some ......"
"Then use it! Don't hesitate! โ
"Okay!"
Under Gao He's stern tone, this girl, who had been carefully hiding in the void, finally appeared in everyone's field of vision for the first time.
"Buzz ......"
From her outstretched hands, two rays of light shot out - the green one shot at the undodgable Seg between the totem poles, and the red one was directly connected to Gao He's body.
"It's ......"
Feeling the sudden increase in his physical strength, Gao He raised his head in surprise and glanced at Onexian, who was concentrating on casting spells.
"Jasmine!"
"Moo!"
"Protect me from Onexia, don't let her spell be interrupted!"
"Know...... Got it! โ
While giving the order, Gao He himself did not hesitate to pounce on the Seg between the totem poles.
"I've foreseen it...... Your recklessness will lead to death......"
Seg grinned, revealing a mouthful of missing teeth - it had been surprised by the green pillar of light that had abruptly connected to its body, but he soon felt that the pillar of light had not done any harm to it, but was healing it.
As he calmed down, Seg began to wave what appeared to be the leg bone of what appeared to be a large creature in his hand, and the dark energy began to gather around its body, quickly condensing into an extremely dangerous-looking energy projectile.
"To stay still is to sit still and wait for ......"
With this low sarcasm, Gao He felt that the powerful spell energy had locked his body, but he still did not dodge or dodge, and pounced straight on the gnoll.
"Buzz ......"
When the abruptly disappeared ball of darkness reappeared, it was already in Gao He's chest, and his reckless charge made him eat this terrifying magic attack fiercely in the next moment.
2o12o๏ผ
Up to 2 points of shadow magic damage flew above Gao He's head, but surprisingly, this terrifying damage that should have killed him at least twice in an instant didn't make him fall instantly.
In fact, at the same time as he took this damage, Gao He had already approached Sege's side, and the war hammer in his hand was quietly replaced by the sword of the leader, the fallen ash messenger full of endless evil and dark power! (To be continued!)
