My Magic Age
Chapter 471 268. Barbarian
Our eleventh team has been hunting here for nearly three days in the valley of the Antiyam Mountains outside El City. Unfortunately, these barbarians may have smelled the danger. Many barbarians acting alone began to gather. As long as If a barbarian team of three or more appears, we must retreat quickly.
After these days of brutal attacks and ambushes, I realized how tough the barbarians were even when I met them alone. They were strong and unafraid of death.
After walking out of the dense forest of the valley, we were exposed to the silver wilderness. The hawks in the sky guided us over several more mountain ridges before we had a chance to breathe. After chasing all night, we finally caught up at noon, and went around from behind the mountains on both sides to the front of the barbarian.
Starting from yesterday afternoon, Basil led us to chase a lone barbarian. This barbarian walked and stopped in the mountains and fields. He walked westward along the Antias Mountains for nearly a hundred miles throughout the night. On the mountain roads, barbarians can easily climb some due to their height and size. On the steep mountain, we worked hard behind to avoid being thrown away. The barbarians found a pond at the bend of the stream. The barbarians smashed the ice with their fists. They were not afraid of the severe cold and stayed alone. He jumped into the pond and used a sharpened wooden spear to spear the fish.
It seemed that he was hungry too. When I saw him at noon yesterday, he was squatting in a broken hut, eating a roasted woman's thigh. It had been a whole day since he had eaten anything. Wandering around in this mountain is like being lost and wandering around. If it weren't for Basil who is proficient in 'pathfinding' in the team, I'm afraid we would have lost track of him.
A big, lively fish jumped out of the water full of ice. The barbarian cheered and caught it in his hands. He pinched the head and tail of the green-scaled carp that was more than a foot long. He couldn't wait to walk ashore and directly took the wooden spear. Throwing it aside, he opened his big mouth and took a big bite on the back of the green-scaled carp, eating it with gusto. With just a few simple mouthfuls, the green-scaled carp was swallowed whole like a jujube.
While the barbarians were eating fish by the stream, Cynthia and Luka followed the rocks by the stream and surrounded them from both sides. At this time, Xiu Zao had disappeared. I didn't realize when he left. I looked around but couldn't find him in the snowy mountains and forests. Captain Cynthia told me to follow Basile and Vayne. Stay together and don't allow me to run around.
In the last battle, the barbarian almost killed one of Cynthia's arms with a near-death blow. At the last moment, the minotaur Luka rushed forward and struck the barbarian warrior head-on, saving Cynthia. So this time the minotaur Luka was brought directly to the battlefield by Cynthia. It should be safer for two powerful warriors to deal with one barbarian warrior. However, in this case, Cynthia felt that no one would protect me, so she asked me to follow Basil and Wei. Let's act together.
In fact, I think Cynthia's ideas are a bit too old-fashioned. Since we have an absolute numerical advantage, Cynthia doesn't need to fight the barbarian warriors head-on. She just needs to be restrained a little and let Vayne and Xiu use their personal strength. Why? Fight head-on with the barbarians!
Basil and Vayne crouched behind a big tree and exchanged glances with each other. Although it seemed that Vayne, the archer, had a very low emotional intelligence and could not see Basil's usual perfunctory attitude, her fighting talent was top-notch and she did not need to speak. Just one look can bring back the other person's thoughts. Her sense of war and sense of smell are very keen. I think this may be something she has been able to cultivate slowly after experiencing countless bloody battles.
This place is two to three hundred meters away from the stream. It's a bit far away. Even if it can be shot, it won't cause much harm to the barbarian. She and Basile must find an opportunity to rush forward about two hundred meters. distance, and then find the best shooting position, preferably with a big tree as a cover.
And I need to be closer. My casting distance is thirty yards lower than the archers' shooting range. I have to give them two ice shields. Although the effect of the ice shield is minimal, there is a layer of ice attached to the ice shield. Ice flame, as long as the barbarian warrior touches the ice shield, frost will condense all over his body. Although they are not afraid of the cold, their movements will be delayed to some extent. I already realized this when I killed the first barbarian. point.
"ah!"
Cynthia's footsteps were like the beat of a drum. Every step she took stepped on the rocks beside the stream. Almost every step could make several deep cracks on a boulder. Her movements kept accelerating from slow to fast. The hand dragged the two-handed sword, and the sharp sword tip carved a deep sword mark on the pebbles by the stream. The speed increased, and faster... When the barbarian in the pond by the stream found Cynthia, she had already charged towards the barbarian. Out dozens of steps.
The barbarian m didn't flinch. Instead, he threw away the wooden harpoon excitedly, clenched his fists and raised his head to the sky with a roar.
"Ouch~~"
The muscles all over his body bulged like inflated balloons, and he punched his chest vigorously. Every punch made his eyes turn red. After a few punches, his eyes became blood red. With just a slight leap, he jumped from the pond to the shore and rushed towards Cynthia. The barbarian was even a little excited and could not help but roar loudly as he ran.
At this time, Cynthia's momentum also reached its peak. A huge phantom appeared behind her. It was a 10-meter-high "Crusader's Sword". I opened my mouth in surprise and looked at this scene. I had felt this kind of powerful pressure on Baoji and Viru before. It was the pressure caused by their "momentum" on my spiritual sea. Hamasaki also condensed his own "momentum" in the arena, which was a big iron spear. But when I saw Cynthia's "momentum" at this time, I realized that "momentum" can also grow.
When Cynthia's "momentum" condensed to the peak, she suddenly stepped hard on a boulder, used this boulder as a jumping point, and suddenly jumped high. The single hand dragging the giant sword also turned into two hands raised above her head, holding the sharp two-handed sword steadily. The two-handed sword turned into a residual image in the sky, and slashed at the barbarians who came up from the ground like a tidal wave.
‘Cleave’
I was amazed that this ‘Cleave’ was originally a very common move, but in the hands of a powerful 15th-level swordsman, it would have such power.
The barbarian had no weapons in his hands, and he went forward with his bare hands, holding Cynthia’s two-handed sword with his fists like a king lifting a tripod.
With a “clang” sound, there was a harsh sound of metal clashing.
Cynthia, who was 190 cm tall, was actually blocked by the barbarian. Her body was suspended in the air, and under the recoil of the fist, her body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string.
The minotaur Luka following behind Cynthia quickly changed his target and used the ‘charge’ skill on Cynthia, turning into a white light and rushing under her body, catching her steadily.
The barbarian was obviously not feeling well. He was originally standing on a huge rock, but now his feet were submerged in the broken rocks. A blood line appeared on his forehead, passing through the top of his head, the tip of his nose, his lips, his lower jaw, and his sternum to his lower abdomen. This was caused by the sword behind Cynthia. The shadow of the huge Crusader's sword almost directly ripped the barbarian's belly open, but unfortunately it did not break the barbarian's rock-hard skin. Only a blood groove deep to the bone was left on his body, but no blood flowed out.
At this time, the barbarian also lost consciousness for a moment, but he did not expect that the light behind him suddenly dimmed, and a shadow appeared behind him. Two sharp daggers protruded from behind the barbarian, one stabbed the barbarian's heart fiercely, and the other cut the barbarian's throat.
At this critical moment, the barbarian's scarlet blood eyes burst into a fierce light, and a dull roar came out from his mouth again.
"Ah~~"
A wave of air suddenly pushed out from the barbarian's body, and Xiu, who was sticking to the barbarian's back, was blown away by the wave of air like a piece of paper. After tumbling several times in the air, he regained his balance and fell on the dead branches of the willow tree by the stream not far away.
The barbarian looked at the layer of frost condensed on his skin in astonishment, and looked at his arms covered with white frost in a strange way. He actually forgot to chase Cynthia and Xiu.
The frost was because he touched the ice shield on Cynthia's body, and the extremely cold ice flame attached to his body.
Just when the barbarian hesitated, Vayne and Basil had already rushed into the shooting position. Vayne had no hesitation at all. He held the huge waist crossbow in his hand, moved in small steps in the forest, and continuously triggered the trigger. Five armor-piercing arrows were shot at the barbarian one after another. When the barbarian was astonished, they were inserted into his chest side by side. Only the tail feathers of the two-and-a-half-foot-long crossbow arrows were exposed.
At this time, Basil's first arrow shook the air and broke through layers of obstacles. The barbarian swung his iron fist angrily and knocked down the feather arrow. Unexpectedly, the feather arrow that seemed light was heavier than ten thousand kilograms. A huge force shook from the tip of the feather arrow. The barbarian was powerless to follow up. The huge body of more than three meters high fell on its back with a "bang", and it fell on the rocks by the stream like a meat mountain.
The victory and defeat have been decided. The next step is how to kill the barbarian who is like a trapped beast.
Usually we choose to let Vayne shoot first to make sure that the barbarian has no room for resistance, and Xiu will walk over to finish off the knife.
The most important thing Xiu has to do is to cut off the barbarian's left ear...
This is the second barbarian we have successfully ambushed and killed in three days. We cut off their left ears and brought them back to exchange for merit.
...
The members of the team were lying in the tent in all directions. There was snow under the wolfskin mattress. They were so tired that they could fall asleep even if they lay directly in the snow.
I quietly stood by the campfire. A large iron pot was placed on the fire-gathering scroll. The water in the pot was boiling, and the hot steam kept coming out, making the whole tent very warm. I was responsible for the first round of night duty. It was also because Cynthia took care of me that I was ranked first. In this way, after someone replaced me, I could sleep soundly all night.
The Tauren Luka curled up in his sleeping bag, snoring like thunder.
Now no one complained about the snoring of the Tauren Luka and his orc identity, nor did they resist him entering the big tent to rest. After this Tauren bravely hunted two barbarian warriors with these falcons, everyone gradually began to accept him.
When the Tauren Luka was furious, he could completely block the barbarian's fierce attack for Cynthia with his "petrified skin" and "wind sprint".
Therefore, the Tauren Luka also gained the respect of the team members.
"I originally thought that Heidi wanted to force you into my hands and let me take you to grow slowly in the Falcon team. After all, I am her best friend, and I will definitely do what she asks me to do." Cynthia's voice came from behind me.
She had woken up and crawled out of the sleeping bag, wrapped in a blanket, with her toned shoulders exposed from the blanket, and her eyes were bright in the night.
"I still don't understand her. How could the proud Heidi give up her pride?" Cynthia sighed.
I didn't know how to answer for a while, so I could only be a quiet listener.
"An auxiliary magic apprentice, haha, I never thought it would be like this. Your "water therapy" is really great. You are not afraid of getting hurt. You can let go of your hands and feet to hunt, and use some dangerous moves that you didn't dare to try before. It's really fun to kill barbarians like this! Jia, you are a great water magician." Cynthia said to me gently.
When Captain Cynthia is in a good mood, she will talk about her past experiences of hunting barbarians. These stories have gone beyond the scope of stories and should be regarded as experience. She will tell me how to deal with emergencies in this or that situation.
In the past, the hunting team was most worried about injuries. Once the falcons were injured in the wild, the chance of survival was less than 50%.
"Your scrolls are also very good, but Jia, are you sure that if we light the "Fire Gathering" scrolls all night to keep warm, when we return to the city, our spoils can be worth the value of these magic scrolls?" Cynthia said with some concern.
"These scrolls are not worth much. If we are lucky and meet a magic beast in this forest, a lowest-level magic beast leather can be worth these "Fire Gathering" scrolls!" I patted my chest!
"Go to bed quickly, the hunting days have just begun!" Cynthia was relieved and told me again.
I said, "Well, I'll go to sleep first, Captain!"
...
After the falcons merged into the mountains, we didn't find any new prey in the following days.
The body of a barbarian with a green tiger pattern on his skin lay on the snow. There was an obvious arrow hole between his eyebrows. The sharp arrow had been pulled out, and his throat had been cut open. The severed aorta was curled outward at the wound. The blood flowing out of the blood vessels dripped down the cliff. In just a few breaths, the blood quickly cooled and condensed into crystal blood ice. The barbarian's left ear had been cut off. The barbarian looked a little hideous when he died.
Basil squatted down and stretched out his hand to press on the barbarian's naked chest. He frowned and cursed: "The chest is still warm. It won't be dead for more than a quarter of an hour. These guys are so fast!"
The cold wind blew up the floating snow on the rocks, quickly covering the blood stains.
There are quite a lot of falcons in this area.
After just a few days, there were no more lone barbarians in the forest.
The barbarians smelled danger and began to gather together. Led by the warriors of their tribe, they attacked the falcons wandering in the mountains. We began to find the bodies of the falconers who were brutally killed by the barbarians...
