I’m Really Not Targeting the Mages

In the swamp.

The gray dwarves shot arrows at the sky while clamoring.

They still didn't understand what Roger's eyes meant.

That is the horror that only the Blast Frog can realize...

"Toughness".

A very special subdivision property.

It represents the body's resistance to its own negative state.

It should be noted that "resistance" is not the same as "exemption".

For example.

If a person is injured.

Then the high tenacity value can make him "resist" many negative states caused by injuries:

Pain, fainting, limited mobility, etc.

But the wound still exists, and he cannot "exempt" the injury.

Therefore, high toughness does not mean high immunity.

even so.

"Resilience" is still a very worthwhile attribute to invest in.

In battle, a higher toughness value can create a higher fault tolerance rate for adventurers.

And the full strength value can give people more than ten seconds in extreme situations such as cardiac arrest, throat being wiped, and head being exploded!

Don't underestimate the effect of delaying death.

There are resurrection scrolls in this world.

Sometimes, the difference between resurrection and ashes is only those ten seconds!

So when Roger saw clearly that the new attribute was indeed toughness, he tightened the reins without hesitation.

He was signaling Mishas to fly back.

The low intelligence of the Wyvern makes it difficult for Mishas to understand Roger's intentions.

But there is the gray dwarf's crossbow in the front, the master's residence in the back, and Roger is pulling hard on the neck.

So it just struggled for a while, then turned the direction of flight.

Roger did not return to Longya Village with her.

After getting out of the gray dwarf's sight, he jumped off the dragon beast's back!

The 1st ring specialty "Light as a Swallow" comes into play again.

Both Slow and Feather Fall are active.

With a whoosh, Roger landed lightly.

He rolled a few times on the ground, losing the last bit of momentum.

Then he quickly grabbed the backpack, and after a few ups and downs, he disappeared into the reeds.

The hunt begins!

...

In the south of Huangshi Island, near a relatively clear lake.

Two crooked old pagoda trees covered the afterglow of the setting sun in the marshland.

Fog visible to the naked eye rises from the lake, and with the light wind comes the unique rough voice of the duergar.

They seemed to be cursing something.

Roger couldn't understand the language of the duergar.

But it can be inferred that these gray dwarves are sentinels set up around Huangshi Island.

Their purpose should be to prevent anyone from leaving Yellowstone.

After finding the group of gray dwarves who attacked him, Roger did not act rashly.

He walked along the perimeter of Huangshi Island for a while, and sure enough, within five kilometers, he found another gray dwarf sentry post.

"These are the pioneers of the gray dwarves of the swamp?"

"They surrounded Huangshi Island, and it seems that they really have a lot of plans."

"I don't know how many people are in their main force."

Roger was not in the slightest careless.

He knew very well that the gray dwarves and the explosive frogs were not of the same level of prey.

The level of these gray dwarves is similar to their own, and they have a team structure, amazing defense, and excellent weapons.

Apart from not having much brains, it is almost an elite army.

And judging from the setting of the sentries, the leader of the gray dwarves has a certain amount of wisdom.

"Rachel mentioned that the refugee leader named Humphrey united the gray dwarves..."

"Hopefully they can withstand the pressure."

Roger quietly sneaked back to his original position.

It is very important to him whether Longya Village can withstand the massive attacks of the gray dwarves and refugees.

In order to hunt enough gray dwarves safely.

He has already prepared himself for a long-term guerrilla attack.

And this requires them to attract enough firepower on the front.

Otherwise it will be very troublesome.

...

Longya Village.

The restless flying dragon beasts formed a team and circled the big banyan tree at low altitude.

Wherever the fire shines, there are busy shadows of the villagers.

Strengthen the fence, move supplies, prepare for battle...

Suddenly, they have too much to do.

Outside the medical house.

The pale Rachel tried to comfort the frightened Mishas.

after awhile.

Only then did Mishas calm down, and led the rest of the flying dragons to find an open space to rest.

"How? What happened?"

Cindy looked serious.

Nothing like this has ever happened before—

The Wyvern came back, but the rider was nowhere to be seen.

"I don't know. Mishas refuses to communicate now."

Rachel bit her lip unconsciously:

"I checked the arrow marks on the wings. He may have been hit by an arrow and fell."

"Is the number of gray dwarves already so dense? I have clearly told her to go in a different direction..."

Cindy shook her head:

"Humphrey was more prepared than we thought."

"This has been a bad fight. We need you badly, but for now, you must rest."

Rachel insisted with a small face:

"I have to find him, in case he is not dead..."

Cindy quickly grabbed her.

"Master Roger will be fine."

Someone next to him suddenly interrupted.

Rachel looked away.

Eric walked over from the darkness with a pile of stones in his arms, and said seriously:

"I'll tell you a secret: No matter how strong a monster is, Lord Roger only needs one move to kill it instantly."

"The duergar are certainly powerful to us."

"But for Master Roger, it must be easy to clean up!"

Rachel was silent for a while before reluctantly agreeing to go back to rest.

...

"These gray dwarves are a bit tricky!"

In the grass by the lake.

Roger, who had been hiding for a long time, couldn't help scratching his hair.

The tricky point is mainly on the "rough stone skin".

This trait ensures that the gray dwarves have a super strong defense, and non-critical attacks have no chance of being effective.

As for the vitals.

After observing for so long, Roger found that the gray dwarves only had the back of their neck and eye sockets.

The crotch is also suspected.

But the gray dwarves did not give Roger such an in-depth observation opportunity...

"It's time to do it."

Roger took a deep breath, and gently tugged on the rope at hand.

Suddenly, there was a thumping sound on the quiet lake.

The gray dwarves on the locust tree poked their heads one after another.

But the fog was so thick that they couldn't see the specific situation at all.

Whoosh whoosh!

A few crossbow arrows shot past, but there was no other movement.

when it is.

Then three violent gray dwarves jumped down from the tree.

They fluttered in the water for a while, then went ashore to inspect with crossbow arrows in hand.

And the locust tree is close to the other side of the shore.

Under the cover of night, a nimble shadow climbed up silently.

There were only two gray dwarves left behind on the locust tree.

Roger was as lithe as a feline.

With the blessing of Yunyanbu, he climbed to the top of a gray dwarf in a short time.

There was a sound of "呲".

The Qingfu sword pierced through the back of the gray dwarf's neck, giving it a chill.

...

"You killed a marsh gray dwarf"

"You gained 12 XP"

"Your 'Toughness' has been slightly increased."

...

"Using the assassination method to kill a monster for the first time, you have obtained a new milestone - Assassin's Creed"

"Your milestone points have reached 11 points, and you can redeem them for milestone rewards. Do you want to redeem them?"

...
