Volume 2 The Imminent Threat Chapter 82 Have you heard of the ratskin armor?

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Terrible! ”

Looking at the giant rat that was almost a foot away, Fang Qiuling gave a thumbs up.

Lady Moghley silently picked up the mace she had just thrown, and indifferently wiped the fur and flesh from her weapon.

The giant rat in front of him was completely silent. Arrows that pierced deep into the marrow turned its small brain upside down, and death was the only outcome.

Reverend Ed took a few steps forward and kicked the giant rat in its front paws.

The giant rat fell to the ground half-curled on one side against the wall, half of its weight pressed against the wall and half on its front paws. With the force of Pastor Eddard's kick, the front paw moved slightly, and the center of gravity was immediately destroyed. The giant rat's body arched forward. The not-so-small movement startled everyone, and they all jumped backwards, thinking that this big guy was not dead yet. Now it's a pan death blow, ready to drag a few pads.

With such sharp claws, this giant rat can already be considered a magical creature. Magical creatures are always going to have something special, like having two brains or something. It looks like he's dead, but it's actually playing dead. There are also many careless Warcraft hunters who have died for this.

The group stared nervously at the giant rat, and their weapons were clenched in their hands again. As long as you dare to cheat the corpse, then you can kill it again!

However, after waiting for a while, I didn't see any more movement from this guy, and the heat in the dark vision gradually began to dim.

Miss Moegre raised her mace and slammed a blow into its hind paws. Only a crisp "click" sound was heard, apparently the bone in the hind paw was broken.

- It should be really dead, the kind that won't cheat the corpse.

"Hoo ......"

Fang Qiu exhaled a long breath. He was right next to Pastor Eddard, just a few steps away from the giant rat. If this guy cheats the corpse because of Pastor Eddard's kick, the two of them will bear the brunt of it.

Pastor Ed is dressed in chain mail and has an arm shield on his left arm. And Fang Qiuling's Seeker suit was barely leather armor, which could only be regarded as leather clothing, and the shield on his hand had already been stuffed into Ms. Mogre. Compared to Pastor Eddard, he has a thin skin and a big crispy filling, and he can't withstand this guy's pounce at all.

"Old Ed, don't you pay attention! I want to scare people to death! ”

"Mistakes, mistakes." Pastor Ed also knew that his actions just now were a little rash, "But ...... This guy's skin isn't very thick, so why is it so hard to cut? ”

"Oblique Armor Theory, Arc Force Discharge Theory, Arc Defense Theory, ......"

Fang Qiuling opened his mouth and reported a series of unclear words.

"Stop, stop, stop! What are you talking about? ”

"I'm referring to the reason why this guy's size, fur structure, and bones are good defense against sword sharps."

"Can you put it simply?"

Lily, who was the last to shoot, spoke, her voice full of resentment. If it weren't for "some reason" of "someone", she wouldn't want to come to a place like the underpass. And now she has seen such an ugly big mouse, and she is in a very bad mood at the moment!

"Absolutely. To put it simply, this guy is a magical creature. ”

"Magical creatures? You're fooling people, aren't you? Don't you understand bullying? ”

"Then I'll continue, the theory of inclined armor, the theory of arc unloading, the theory of arc defense, ......"

"Stop, I suddenly don't want to know!"

"Oh......"

Fang Qiuling let out an "oh" as he pulled out a black mace. He took a few steps forward, made a few strokes on the giant mouse's front paws, and then swung his hammer down. With a few crisp sounds, the sharp fingers and claws of the giant rat fell one after another. Then he took a fancy to the two front teeth in the giant mouse's mouth, and after some tinkering, he also succeeded in getting them off.

"Let's take a break." Fang Qiuling proposed, "Although it's a little disgusting here, it should be safe for a while." This big rat should be a lord-level guy if nothing else, and the big and small rats around it are all under its control. Now that it's dead, it probably won't take a while for the rats to return. ”

The others around looked at each other.

It's certainly okay to take a break, but ...... Can't you just change places!

"Viscount Norn, what are you doing here?"

The new female pastor asked curiously.

"Collect the loot." Fang Qiuling didn't raise his head, he casually activated the arcane vision on the Seeker's suit, and searched around, "This claw, and this tooth, you all saw how powerful it was just now, right?" This tooth ...... "gestured with his hand, "as long as it is simply polished, it is a natural dagger, and it will be processed later to make an armor-piercing cone, an absolute plate armor killer." ”

The faces of several paladins present froze in unison.

"These fingers...... It should be good to make a long knife or scimitar with the inlay method. The iron shield is estimated to take a few more cuts, but the wooden shield only needs to be a little bit. Well, I won't talk about it. ”

Iron shields are far more defensive than wooden and leather shields. However, iron shields usually can't be made very large, because the bigger they are, the heavier they are, and they are not good to use. But if it is smaller, then the area that can be defended will be reduced accordingly. Therefore, it is generally common to use wooden inlaid shields and leather inlaid shields.

The weapon crafted from the giant rat's finger claws was undoubtedly unusually sharp, and it was easy to pierce or cut through the leather and wooden shields.

Although everyone present except Fang Qiuling was a priest of the temple, their strength mainly came from faith. But having a good weapon is also what they yearn for. But then they heard Fang Qiuling continue:

"It's true that the skin is not thick, but the defense against the sword is really good. If you could peel off its skin and make a set of leather armor......"

"Enough! Stop it! ”

- It's disgusting!

Dragonskin armor, armor made of dragon skin - undoubtedly superior, all sorts of tall and tall. Has anyone ever heard of "ratskin armor"? Peeled off the skin of the big mouse to make armor, even if the defense is outstanding, don't do it!

After a short break, the group set off again.

It wasn't so much a short break as watching Fang Qiuling hunt for treasure alone. The treasure hunt is over, and the journey continues. After all, there is no place for flesh and blood to sit. In addition, the smell is also quite bad, the rat's nest already has a stench, and now it is mixed with the smell of blood, which is disgusting!

It's better to say it's a break, it's better to say it's a torment.

However, what surprised them the most was Fang Qiuling himself. Viscount Norn usually pays attention to how particular everyone is, but everyone sees it. It's not that he's afraid of hardship, dirty, or tired, but wherever he can be lazy, he will always find ways to get some opportunistic tricks. What's going on today?

"Hey, what is this?"

"Good things, you take them, and when you see more ghouls, you can take them out and paste them. What's in case, just rely on this thing to turn over. You pay attention. ”

Fang Qiuling secretly stuffed a disc-shaped thing to Lily. Although his movements are secretive, there are only a few people in the team, and as long as he whispers in the passage, he can spread far away. Basically, there is no difference between sending it openly and sending it openly.

"Oh, you know......"

Having just given the thing to Lily, Fang Qiuling rushed to Pastor Ed's side and also reached out to hand over an item. The item is rectangular in shape and resembles a box.

"Old Ed, you take this. It should be good for you to use. ”

"What is this?"

"I don't know, but I think you should."

"I don't know where you came from, how do I know what this is......" Pastor Ed didn't believe it at first, but when he took it, he immediately understood, "Hey, it's really true." ”

"I didn't lie to you."

Fang Qiuling winked at him.

"Where did you find that?"

"Just under that pile of bones."

"You're amazing, you can find it."

"Hey, Arcane Vision."

The two men whispered in the back, but before they could say a word, Lady Moghley at the front turned her head and glared at them fiercely. The two immediately became honest and stopped talking.

- Please keep the radio silent! No, it's silence!

Walking down the stairs, the group stepped onto the second floor of the underground passage.

The second floor seems to be more "lively" than the first.

From time to time, you can see large rats fighting with each other for a small piece of "food"; From time to time, you can see the corpse of a large rat lying motionless on the ground, the corpse is full of rodent marks, apparently dead from the mouth of the same kind; From time to time, a group of large rats are rampage through the underground passages like rampagers.

It is not known that it was because of the death of the giant rat, which caused its "people" to begin to "fight for power" for the position of the second king, and entered the chaotic "Warring States" period. Or is the daily life of the big rats like this, they spend themselves fighting with each other, fighting each other, and ravaging each other.

However, the "power swap" of the rats' underworld has nothing to do with the group, even if they are the main culprits in all this.

Go through a few forks and around a few corners. Pastor Ed suddenly patted Fang Qiuling on the back. According to the agreement, this means "there is a situation, stop", and Fang Qiuling immediately patted Ms. Mogree as well. And the people behind Pastor Ed saw it clearly, and the line immediately stopped.

In fact, without being reminded by Pastor Ed, Ms. Mogre, who was in the first place, also saw it. The intersection in front of you was clearly the place where Pastor Ed had been attacked by ghouls. Directly in front of him were scattered with stumps and severed arms of ghouls, and there were several complete corpses. Nearby were torches, weapons, and a bit of a mess dropped by the Paladin's trainees and alternates in a panic. Several large rats were "squeaking" at the ghouls' corpses, and when they saw someone coming, they immediately fled in panic.

Lady Mogre leaned over slightly, and gestured to Fang Qiuling with her gaze. Fang Qiuling shook his head knowingly, and at the same time, he pulled out a short section of the Bright Light Strike in his hand and raised it for Lady Mogre to see for herself.

The Strike of Light was dull, and the crystalline blade had no luster in the darknessβ€”no glow, no undead nearby.

The Mogre girl nodded again, made a forward gesture, and then took the lead in pulling out the mace and slowly stepped forward.

This ghoul ambush intersection is several times larger than the other forks in the road, like a small underground square.

The group marched forward in a vigilant posture and soon reached the center of the intersection.

- Safety.

- There is no threat.

- There is no trace of the enemy.

With the help of dark vision, everything at the intersection has nowhere to hide.

Pastor Ed's eyes widened and he looked around. This intersection is undoubtedly where the ghouls launched a surprise attack and Brother Charlton was dragged away. But the last time I came here with a torch, I couldn't see it clearly at all. It's the first time I've been here, and there's actually nothing wrong with that.

The priestess looked around as well, but she soon reached a passage and leaned cautiously to look around. Her slight move away from the crowd immediately caught the attention of the two male paladins. Even if the "undead searchlight" doesn't sound an alarm, it's best to be careful. So the two male paladins immediately followed.

The priestess noticed her companion's approach, nodded slightly, and then stretched out her hand to the passage in front of her. At this time, Pastor Eddard had already gone through most of the small square, and he also reached the passage, and then he also pointed to the passage on the left.

The two parties coincidentally chose the same direction, and there is no doubt that this should be the path. Ms. Mogre still took the lead, and Fang Qiuling, who was originally in second place, took the initiative to give way, letting Pastor Ed and the female pastor walk ahead of her.

Not long after the march forward, the priestess suddenly motioned for everyone to stop. I saw her crouching down and groping on the ground. A piece of crude fabric then appeared in her hand.

The specific color of this cloth is unknown, but it shows a darker color in dark vision, and it is judged that it should be dark colors such as navy blue, black, and dark gray. The material is the most ordinary linen, but with a little effort in weaving, it looks thicker.

Pastor Ed took the cloth and flipped it over, tugged at it a few times, and then nodded vigorously. Then he passed the fabric forward to Ms. Mowgre, who nodded in the same affirmative.

Fang Qiuling nodded without knowing whether it was okay or not. He didn't have to look to guess that the fabric was the same as the old robe that Brother Charlton was wearing. Because Ben was torn from that old robe.

But......

Fang Qiuling's gaze flickered slightly, and he was silent, just silently making a few hidden gestures.

Finding this cloth seems to give the party a "morale boost" buff. The motivation of the group was unprecedentedly high, and even the depression in the underground passage seemed to have been alleviated a lot.

If you find one, you can find two, and if you can find the first piece of cloth, you can find the second one. What's more, the path was straight and there were no forks, and after a while, Pastor Ed and the priestess each found several pieces of cloth, and even Pastor Ed picked up a small piece of the Wind Emblem.

Brother Charlton appears to have been dragged by ghouls all the way into the depths of the underground passage.
