Chapter 716: Adoption (I)
Although the Evil Beast Oni is a rather difficult magical creature, not only is it immune to magic below level 8, but it is also quite good at melee hand-to-hand combat. But in the face of the blessed Paladin electorate, it is completely inadequate.
At this moment, Celileph completely ignited the bloodline of the Asmo Protoss, and the original long black hair quickly turned silver and white in the process of charging, and the golden pupils exuded a majesty that was completely incommensurate with her age, and at the same time, a pair of looming wings appeared behind her, which was no different from a real celestial creature.
Divine grace gave her great strength, armor, weapons, shields, boots, almost everything on her body exuded a rich positive force field, and the attacks and control magic released by the evil beast and ghost in a hurry were blocked before they could get close.
"Filthy evil, taste the righteous wrath!" The girl screamed and rushed into the midst of the enemy, cutting off the head of one of them with a single sword.
With the blessing of divine power, the jade sword emitted a holy light, which had a great restraining effect on the monsters of the evil camp, as long as they were cut, they would inevitably cut off their hands and feet, and the incision was smooth, as if the bodies of evil beasts and ghosts were made of tofu.
"Retreat! Come on! Immediately report to the chief, and there is a godly chosen person. One of the beasts shouted as he stepped back.
As evil creatures known for their insidiousness, cunning, deception, and mastery of human affairs, they are obviously not willing to die in battle, and generally speaking, as long as they encounter an invincible enemy, they will not hesitate to turn around and flee, so they have activated their magic items to keep away from the holy warriors who are wrapped in divine grace.
Unfortunately, there are quite a few spellcasters in this squad. Especially Henry, who stood on the sidelines and watched coldly. A cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. There was no suspense that all spatial spells within a radius of 100 meters were banned.
As creatures who are naturally sensitive to magical energy, the evil beasts and ghosts soon discovered the reason why the teleportation spell failed, and shouted loudly, "Not good! Go and kill the mage, he was the one who twisted the web around him. β
"That's right! If you don't kill him, no one will want to run! β
"Come on! Give that human a little color! β
β¦β¦
Several evil beasts and ghosts were all very good at talking, but they didn't take any actual action at all, and they all expected any fool to jump out first and test the strength of the other party.
After all, although they are immune to level 8 magic, which sounds very lofty, in fact, they are only immune to the magic energy itself. And not a magical creation. But anyone with a little common sense can use their knowledge and experience to make these guys survive and not die.
Don't underestimate the use of magic by masters, and don't think that having magic immunity will make it possible. There are countless strange spells in this world, as long as you have not reached the all-knowing, all-powerful, and perfect Cheng dΓΉ, as long as there is still a trace of weakness, then in the eyes of the caster, you are not invincible, and you can completely defeat it.
Seeing this situation, Henry smiled disdainfully and provocatively said, "Come on, I'll wait for you." I haven't moved my muscles and bones for a long time, and I happened to kill Joan. Irenikas might as well warm up before doing some exercise. β
"Nope. No, no. I should be left to do the work. Look at how beautiful their hairy heads are, and if they are cut down and brought back to Ascatla, they will surely sell for a good price. Kogan rolled his eyes as he spoke. Look up and down at the feline-like head of the evil beast ghost. That tone was like talking about how much pork in the market cost a pound, revealing a contemptuous attitude towards life in his bones.
"I think you should leave this opportunity to me, because I want to test the power of this silver sword." Not to be outdone, Apodell clenched his weapon and stepped forward.
None of the people present paid attention to the evil beasts and ghosts that countless adventurers talked about, as if they were nothing more than a bunch of insignificant goblins, kobolds, and the like who could be slain with a single swing of their swords.
After experiencing the underground trip, everyone involved, regardless of their professional level, combat skills, or mentality, has all been sublimated, and they will no longer panic because of a few difficult monsters. From this alone, the trip was not in vain, at least in terms of vision improved a lot.
Obviously, the unscrupulous slaughter of these monsters for fun has caused the displeasure of the entire team, especially Kaidon, who has always been jealous and hateful, holding the Holy Avenger tightly, those wise eyes have never left the battlefield, as long as Selly Love shows the slightest defeat, he will definitely rush to join the warband at the first opportunity.
As for Kogan, it is estimated that he may not be used to seeing the other party abuse women and children. The old dwarf, though evil and bloodthirsty, never had the idea of striking women and children without going mad, and in his own words, if a warrior only knew how to bully the weak, he could never become strong, because these fellows' eyes were always looking down on him, how could they have the energy to climb higher.
I have to say that sometimes the simpler the words, the more esoteric the truth can be described. Kogan proved his theories right with his own actions, and continued down this path until one day he fell at the feet of a more powerful adversary, for which he had no regrets, even against the gods.
Seeing that the divine grace in Seilelev's body was getting weaker and weaker, Henry knew that he could not wait any longer, otherwise the girl would soon lose the last protection of the ball under the siege of the evil beast ghost.
"Well, since no one wants to give up, let's go together, do our best to get rid of these messes, and I'll go and comfort the poor girl." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards Lori, the elf who was crying.
After getting the approval of the leader, Kogan, Apodell, Sheena, Kaidon, Minsk, Solaufen, and Feder rushed into the battlefield in an instant, while Ammon, Jasila, Viconia, and Yao En blessed some with divine skills, and some took up their bows and crossbows to shoot, which made the evil beasts and ghosts scramble at once.
You must know that everyone here has at least fourteen professional levels, and some part-time ones are even more than twenty levels together, how can the evil beasts and ghosts with less than ten people withstand it, and nearly half of them will fall after a round. The rest were also wounded. There was fear in his eyes. They couldn't believe that a group of adventurers could have such great strength.
Despair!
These monsters finally realized the feelings of those dead wood elves just now.
Henry ignored his companions' extermination of the enemy. Instead, he quietly came to the elf Lori and squatted down to look at those sad and helpless eyes, and said in the most gentle voice possible: "Hello, my name is Henry, and I am invited by General Erhan to deal with the exiles and save the city. Sorry, we arrived a little late. β
"Woo woo woo...... Mom...... I want Mom! As if she hadn't heard anything, the little girl still held the corpse's hand and cried loudly. She looked like she was greatly stimulated, and her whole body was trembling slightly. I don't know if it's because of grief or fear, or anger.
"Come, come to me, your mother has gone to the land of the gods to live a happy life. Don't be too sad, I'm sure she's not going to want to see you in the realm of the gods. As he spoke, Henry took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears for little Lori, and then gently stroked her long blond hair.
Probably sensing that the human in front of him really didn't have any malice, the young elf raised his head and asked in a choked voice, "Really?!! β
"Of course it's true, I can swear."
Henry hurriedly raised a hand, and at the same time sighed in his mind that he had finally given some reflection. If this little guy kept crying, he probably wouldn't have much to do but use some enchanting spells.
After all, psychologically speaking, the minds of women and children are the hardest to guess. Because their personalities are changeable and there is no logic to speak of. And the elf little Lori in front of him happens to occupy both. Coupled with the fact that I saw my mother's tragic death, it was even more difficult to predict that my spirit would be greatly stimulated.
"That'...... So what do I do now? Mom is gone...... Dorothy also died...... I don't have a home anymore...... Woo woo woo woo ......," the girl said and began to cry again.
The scene in front of him suddenly made Henry's head feel big for a while, and he hurriedly picked up his handkerchief and continued to wipe the tears on his face, and asked tentatively: "Don't cry, you can join us if you want, as long as you make sure not to make any noise along the way." Also, Who is Dorothy? Is she your family member or friend? β
Dorothy...... Be...... It was an elven hound that was killed by a monster to protect me. As she spoke, little Lori sobbed and pointed to a canine creature behind her that had been disemboweled.
"Oh? It doesn't seem to be dead yet! Let me see if there is any help. With that, Henry took Lori's hand and took her away from the corpse.
As someone who knows something about psychology, he naturally knows that if he wants to get someone out of grief, one of the most important things is to divert attention. Obviously, the elven hound was probably the most important member of the little girl's psyche besides her mother, and if she could bring it back to life, she would be able to forget her grief for a while.
In fact, the female elven hound, named Dorothy, was already dead. Its devotion to its Lord was met with ferocious retribution from its enemies, and its entire spine was completely broken, and its abdomen was hit head-on by weapons such as mace or meteor hammer.
But this is obviously not a problem for a legendary druid. Without any hesitation, Henry took out a diamond directly from his backpack and cast the resurrection magic, as a large amount of experience points were extracted, Dorothy's wound began to heal rapidly, and after just a few seconds, he opened his eyes and let out a weak roar, as if to warn the stranger in front of him to stay away from his little master.
Its behavior made a smile appear on Henry's face, and then reached out and gently touched the hound's head: "Don't worry, I have no ill will towards your master. β
"Wow!! Dorothy is alive! You really brought it to life! Thank you! Little Lori laughed and kissed Henry on the cheek, and then hugged the elven hound.
Seeing her excited little face, Henry felt that the experience points and gems he had paid were completely worth it, at least to bring a glimmer of hope to the little guy's life, just like the help that Solauphon had brought to Eren at the risk of his life underground, which could not be measured by money at all.
At this moment, he suddenly had the idea of raising this elf Lori himself......
