Half-elf Ranger
Chapter 210: exploratory attack
Quiet Forest.
Near noon, the thin mist had already dissipated in the sparse jungle, replaced by bright sunlight penetrating the swaying branches, casting ferocious shadows of swaying trees.
Thorne stooped and walked along the bushes on both sides of the road. When he saw a Luca set up by the Hobgoblin in the middle of the road from a distance through the woods, he stopped walking and immediately disappeared. into the bushes.
Just like the results of the owl reconnaissance, the Hulk Hobgoblin has planned to make the entire Tranquil Forest his private domain.
They set up a lot of checkpoints on the only road leading to the Twin Towers Town in front of them. If they found other races trying to approach here, they would kill them mercilessly.
Thorne glanced at the guard towers built on both sides of the road, and found two burly hobgoblins standing on them, and then looked at the same fence that was blocked in the middle of the road, made of logs as thick as an adult's thigh.
When he noticed the heads of various humanoid creatures inserted at the tip of the fence, he immediately understood that it was not like what he had seen. There were only two hobgoblins left behind, and there must be a large hobgoblin nearby. Camp.
Otherwise, it is impossible to kill strong giant-like creatures such as ogres and trolls with only these two hobgoblin guards, and stick their heads on the fence, always warning the outsiders who stray here. .
Then Thorne, who was hiding in the dark, did not rush to act, but stood there thinking about how to act.
In the vast Forest of Tranquility, apart from the trade route opened up with the acquiescence of the Temple of Merika, there is no other shortcut for carriages to pass through, so those carts with loads of goods want to go on the waterfall. To travel between the town and the town of Twin Towers, you must pass through here.
However, for Thorne, who acts alone, as long as it is not a cliff or a rushing river, he can easily pass through it as a ranger.
And the reason why he still insisted on walking from here is mainly to scout the general situation of the Hobgoblins entrenched in the Forest of Tranquility when passing by.
Although they had just fought against the Hobgoblin two days ago, they also left the Hobgoblin's priest and commander in the outer area of the Serenity Forest forever, and they had a rough estimate of their strength.
However, his sneaking all the way through the Serenity Forest made him deeply realize that it was only a peripheral peripheral force of the Heruk Hobgoblin clan, and did not completely belong to the core force of the Heruk Hobgoblin.
So, wanting to understand this problem, he took this opportunity to carefully avoid the peripheral forces of many hobgoblins, and came to the depths of the Serenity Forest, ready to test the strength of the real elite army of the Hulk hobgoblins. If the town's player group fights against them, what are the odds of winning.
Of course, there is another main reason, and that is for: experience and practice points!
This stuff is never too much for their player base.
After thinking about it, Thorne directly lifted the hood covering his head, took out an ordinary arrow from behind, held a composite longbow, got up and left the bushes, and appeared carelessly in front of the two hobgoblin guards not far.
"Human?" The Hobgoblin guard standing on the sentry tower saw Thorne's hazy figure the moment he appeared. When he saw his face clearly, he rubbed his blue aquiline nose, which was dark brown. With a puzzled look in his eyes, he looked at his companion on the other sentry tower and said doubtfully.
"No, he's an elf!" Another Hobgoblin took a serious look, noticed the half-elf Ranger's slightly pointed ears, and directly denied his companion's guess and spoke his own thoughts.
Immediately, he took out the heavy crossbow hanging from his waist, and with a 'click' sound, the Hobgoblin immediately aimed at the figure of the Ranger and sneered.
The race that Hobgoblins hate the most is the elves. This is a kind of hatred hidden in the deepest bloodline. The specific reason goes back to ancient times. With the dragon clan withdrawing from the stage of history under the interference of the dragon mad fans, the elves clan were welcomed. The period of prosperity and continuous expansion of territory on the continent.
As for what happened to the elves when they expanded their territories that the hobgoblins hated so much, it has long since disappeared into the dusty history. Even the hobgoblins themselves don’t know it. They only know that when facing the elves, they would rather Destroy the neat military appearance and strict discipline, and also kill the thin elves that jump around in front of their eyes first.
In the face of the "elf" that suddenly jumped out, the Hobgoblin guard did not choose to warn the first time, because he was confident that he could handle it easily.
He thinks that this lost 'elf' adventurer will end up like all the humanoid heads stuck at the tip of the fence, and his head is different from other ugly humanoids, and he will be the most beautiful head of all trophy, since this is the head of an 'elf', that's enough.
Thinking of this, the Hobgoblin guard subconsciously aimed the heavy crossbow away from the head of the 'elf', and chose to wear his heart.
"call out!"
A crossbow arrow containing the rage of the goblin ripped through the air and galloped towards the half-elf ranger.
When the Hobgoblin guard pulled the trigger of the heavy crossbow and the spring noose 'clicked' sounded, it was easily caught by the keenly conscious Thorne.
I saw him rotate his body slightly, and the crossbow arrow rubbed the edge of his clothes and hit a big tree behind him, making a dull 'humming' sound.
Then Thorne took advantage of the moment of turning around, and the arrow in his right hand was caught by him on the bowstring of the composite longbow.
As soon as Thorne's thoughts moved, the flame power of the Mofeng Sect began to flow in the body, and the arrows on the bowstring suddenly appeared a layer of pale orange flames, floating slightly, exuding scorching high temperature in the cold air.
Looking at the flame of light on the arrow, Thorne nodded with satisfaction.
This is a special attack effect brought by the "Desert Fire" feat. This additional fire damage will continue to increase with his kendo level. Now his kendo level is level 5, and at least 5 points of fire damage can be added.
However, this kind of fire damage can only be attached to weapons that have physical contact with him. If it is an arrow, the moment he shoots it, the flame covering the arrow will also disappear.
However, since Malvasia, the goblin wizard in Horn Town, gave him a book on the use of chi energy, with his frequent reading and practice, this kind of fire damage that can make the "Desert Fire" specialize in He had mastered the trick of temporarily staying on the arrow when he let go.
Then Thorne used all his strength to pull the composite longbow called 'Reverse Electric' into a full moon shape. The ends of the bow horns were wrapped with a metal similar to mithril, which changed immediately as the bowstring was pulled.
I saw the mysterious runes engraved on the metal jumping out of a crackling purple arc, and then they converged on the lilac metal wire wrapped around the handle in the middle of the composite longbow at a speed that was difficult to grasp with the naked eye, and then spread to the lilac. On the arrow on the bowstring.
"call out!"
With the faint sound of bowstrings echoing in Thorne's hands, an arrow that jumped out of a dark purple arc and a light orange flame at the same time roared and ripped apart the air, heading towards the sentry tower, still looking out. The half-elf ranger in the distance guessed what race of hobgoblin guards the other party was.
"Pfft!"
The arrow hit the bewildered Hobgoblin guard with unerring precision. The sharp arrow easily penetrated the Hobgoblin's black leather armor with blood-red stripes, and sank deep into his furry flesh, leaping dark purple arcs and Pale orange scorching flames spread around his wound.
Feeling the tearing pain and the numbness and burning pain coming from the arrows at the same time, the Hobgoblin guard wailed with a 'plop', fell on the fence of the sentry tower, twitched a few times, and then joined the team honorably. The able Magrubier is in the army of the Shura plane.
From the hobgoblin guard shooting the crossbow to Thorne's arrow hitting another hobgoblin guard, it all happened in an instant, when the hobgoblin guard with the heavy crossbow noticed the tragic death of his companion, and quickly pulled the winch again. Loaded the crossbow bolt and attacked Thorne who was standing still and didn't move.
"Boo! Hah! Hah!"
Facing the continuous shooting of the heavy crossbow of the Hobgoblin guards, Thorne did nothing but twisted his body continuously to avoid the galloping arrows.
This level of frontal shooting does not have any threat to Thorne at all. When the crossbow bolt pops out of the heavy crossbow, he can easily determine the position of the crossbow bolt and avoid the fatal attack in advance.
In his professional training as a ranger, avoiding galloping arrows head-on was also a compulsory course for him.
"Zheng!"
"For the glory of the Almighty!" When all the crossbow bolts were poured out, and seeing the abominable 'elf' who was still unharmed, the Hobgoblin guard pulled out the refined long sword hanging from his waist, roared angrily, and roared from the whistle. The tower jumped down and fell steadily to the ground.
Then the Hobgoblin guard took a deep breath, squatted slightly, and jumped up without warning.
At this time, Thorne had already put away the composite longbow, and replaced it with the long sword in his hand to slay the demons.
In the face of the attack launched by the Hobgoblin guards, Thorne didn't even swing his sword to block, but just turned around lightly and halfway before dodging the attack.
The long sword guarded by the goblin opened and closed, and the piercing sound came again. Thorne quickly turned around with his toes as the center of gravity, leaned over to avoid the blade, and nimbly jumped to the side, swinging the sword and swaying. , which disrupted the attack rhythm of the Hobgoblin guards.
"Cowardly 'elf', go to hell!"
The hobgoblin guard cursed, and the long sword slashed at Thorne's neck from the right side. Thorne sideways again dodged the fatal blow, and then kicked the hobgoblin guard's leg. The hobgoblin guard lost his balance instantly. While trying to stand firm, he instinctively raised his sword to parry.
Thorne swung his long sword and slashed forward at lightning speed. The long sword slaying the demon slammed on the blade blocked by the Hobgoblin guard, sending out dazzling sparks. The force of the impact made the blade of the Hobgoblin guard slash directly. on his hairy face.
The Hobgoblin guard was directly slashed by his own blade, and blood flowed from his face, making the already bright red leather armor even more beautiful.
Thorne took the opportunity to shake the right hand of the sword, and the sharp blade suddenly changed direction, accurately sunk into the throat of the Hobgoblin guard, the Hobgoblin guard screamed, bent his legs, and fell into the bushes.
