Chapter 29 Shot

Previous review: On the way to the mallet of doom, Emily and Ning Chen slept in a small cave. At night, an undead peer was spying on them in the distance. Who would this guy be and what did he want to do?

=============================Separator=============================

"It's terrible! I'm injured. My opponent is an undead warrior!" Aesop said sly, patting his tail to signal Ning Chen to check.

Ning Chen came closer and saw that Aesop's thick tail was deeply cut, or a sword and an axe or something. In short, if the other party used a little more force, Aesop would always say goodbye to his tail. Who can even hurt Aesop? According to Ning Chen's usual view Cha, Aesop's combat effectiveness is only stronger than that of Shadow Burial. Its strength is unmatched by Shadow Burial. What's more, it has followed Emily for so many years and has rich field experience. If even such a well-trained python can be hurt to this, then the opponent's strength is really not to be underestimated.

Now Ning Chen is worried about teacher Emily.

"Where's Emily?" Ning Chen asked Aesop.

Aesop raised his head into the air, and Ning Chen looked along. He saw a dark shadow like a dexterous monkey, flashing at the top of the tree, dodging one arrow after another in the light of the dawn. Although it was dark in the forest, it was more or less bright in the sky. When the arrow shot into the sky, it was beautiful. The curvature almost hit Emily several times.

"Didn't you say that your opponent is a warrior?" Ning Chen frowned, "This is obviously a hunter."

"Smile, who said that only hunters can pull bows and shoot arrows?" Aesop said.

Emily pointed at the leaves and jumped to another tree with this meager elasticity. The opponent below was no slower than herself. The heavy armor on his body collided with each other and made a metal sound. If he hadn't worn such heavy armor, then... Emily didn't dare to think about it.

Ning Chen finally found the abnormality on the ground. An undead with a shrimp-like back was quickly shaking his pace and chasing Emily in the air.

There are trees in the forest, and his figure changes so fast that he never stays in one position for more than half a second. Although this poor time is not enough for Ning Chen now, he still pulls his bow to aim and is ready to shoot the arrow at any time.

"Song, a terrible opponent. I've been with Emily for so many years, and it's the first time I've met an opponent that scares me." Aesop was nagging beside him.

"Don't talk!" Ning Chen felt extremely nervous when he heard this. Will this guy also come for the fragments of the ice crown on his body? If so, I would have really implicated Master Emily.

"Hi!" Ning Chen couldn't find the star and suddenly shouted at him, "That guy!"

When Emily heard Ning Chen's shouting, she secretly scolded this stupid apprentice. Obviously, she could not be found out. Why did she expose her hiding place?

"Hi! Shrimp!" Seeing that the other party did not respond, Ning Chen simply raised his voice and shouted, "The hunchbacked shrimp in front of him! What you want is here! Come here!" As he shouted, he held up his golden bow and didn't dare to blink at the place where the shadow had just disappeared. Just a second ago, the shadow flashed there. I don't know where it went, but one thing he was satisfied was that the other party had stopped attacking Emily at the top of the tree. Ning Chen's purpose was Arrived.

The air around him stagnated in an instant. Ning Chen felt that his heartbeat was extremely fast, as if there was something beside him, accompanied by a smell of mold, which was the rotten smell of the dead that he used to be familiar with.

The shrimp-like undead came to Ning Chen's side and next to him. His appearance surprised Aesop, but this is not to blame Aesop. As a snake, it is no different from snakes on the earth. Their ears have degenerated and their hearing and vision are very poor, but their skin The skin is extremely sensitive, and they can feel unusually subtle vibrations from the ground and nearby air. In other words, the skin replaces their already degraded ears. As an excellent companion and can be favored by hunters like Emily as a combat partner, Aesop still has his own characteristics. The smell of snakes is extremely keen, and Aesop is particularly prominent. The core spit out from time to time allows it to quickly distinguish the changes of objects around him, and the cheeks between the eyes and nostrils is an advanced infrared Line receiver.

But the shrimp-like undead in front of him is cold-blooded. He has no body temperature and is cold all over, which is also an important reason why Aesop did not find his arrival. Another reason is that his tongue was injured in the battle.

Ning Chen felt a bitter chill, just like meeting Agamand in the hotel at the end of fear. Those undeads full of evil were terrible.

Emily landed from the air and quickly found a thick tree as a shelter: "Ning Chen! Don't move!"

Ning Chen dares not move now, because a sword is lying on his throat. This opponent is too horrible. Compared with him, the enemies he met before, such as shadow knights, are simply pediatrics. He can't imagine that there are people in the world who are so fast.

"I won't move." Ning Chen said.

"Things..." Xiami opened his mouth and spoke. His voice was as cold as human, far away and pale, as if floating from afar, maybe hell.

"What?" Ning Chen asked.

Xiami didn't say anything. He replaced his words with action. Under the sword, Ning Chen's skin had been cut, and blood flowed down the edge of the sword.

Ning Chen frowned and really cut: "Tell me, I don't know what you want."

"You said..."

"Ning Chen, don't talk to him!" Emily shouted.

Ning Chen didn't dare to nod or speak. He was afraid that he would be cut off his throat if he didn't pay attention, but his eyes were full of doubts, hoping that the other party could see it.

Xiaomi did see it: "You said you have something!"

"What?" Ning Chen asked carefully, "Tell me what you want."

"Crown!" Sure enough, it came for the ice crown.

Ning Chen didn't say anything and suddenly fell straight back. This was a common move he used to use before. When the opponent put the knife on his throat, he chose to lie down to avoid the blade. After these days of training, his speed became faster. This move also worked for shrimps. Ning Chen temporarily broke away from his hostage. At the moment of falling to the ground, Aesop rolled up Ning Chen and quickly rolled into the darkness.

With a roar, the big tree that Ning Chen used to hide fell down. It was broken when the shrimp was in a hurry. A group of frightened birds screamed and flapped their wings and flew to the sky. They didn't know what terrible things had happened below. They opened their big eyes one by one by one with frightened eyes. Observe carefully.

"Ah..." He looked up to the sky and roared, "Give me something!"

As soon as he got involved in the darkness, Aesop immediately released Ning Chen. He got up and wiped the blood from his neck: "NND, really cruel!"

When Emily saw that Ning Chen was temporarily out of the constraints, she immediately went to the top of the tree. Sure enough, Xi Mi couldn't find Ning Chen, so she attacked her hiding place again.

"Teacher, what is his dead hole?"

Emily was shocked by Ning Chen, who suddenly appeared beside her, and almost fell from the tree. She didn't expect that Ning Chen could jump to the top of the tree so quietly. You know, he was a huge tarew.

"Head! The only thing you can do to deal with this rotten undead is to smash their skulls. Emily is indeed an experienced hunter. In an instant, she digested the surprise invisibly and calmly answered Ning Chen's questions.

"I understand." Ning Chen whispered, "There is another problem, teacher."

"Ask." While dealing with Ning Chen's chatter, Emily carefully observed the movement on the ground. It seemed that the undead moved very quickly on the ground, but he could not climb the trees.

"Now that the sky is dawn, we stand here, which is equivalent to the enemy being a living target for others?" As soon as Ning Chen's words fell, two arrows flew at them.

The master and apprentice jumped to the tree next to them and narrowly avoided the two arrows.

"You're at the top, and I'll go down." Emily did not answer Ning Chen's question, but gestured to send him a message from the air.

Ning Chen nodded.

Emily jumped down quietly.

When Emily's figure disappeared in the dark, Ning Chen suddenly came back: This is not using me as cannon fodder bait again, is it? Before he finished thinking about it, another dense rain of arrows came. Ning Chen hurriedly ended his wild thoughts and flashed and jumped on a tree to avoid these attacks.

The attack speed on the ground is very fast. Ning Chen suspects that there are several people in the forest who want their own lives. Is it really one?

Just as he dodged the attack for the Nth time, there was a sound of metal collision below. After the sound, there was a sound of heavy objects falling down, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Ning Chen squatted on a small branch and dared not move, for fear of a more violent attack after being quiet. So far, he has not found that his figure on the top of the tree is light and fast.

"Let's come down." Teacher Emily's voice came from below. She was relaxed and tired. Was it solved?

Jumping down from the tree, Ning Chen found Emily's position. She was leaning against a big tree and gasping, and there was a body separated from her head and body on the ground. The helmet was split in half from the top, and even her brain was broken. Emily's wrist strength was really fierce.

Ning Chen praised in his heart and observed the body in front of him with faint green hair on his bones. It seemed that he had not been alive for a long time. He carried a machete and a crossbow on his back. Those arrows were shot from this crossbow.

"Teacher, are you sure he's dead?"

Emily nodded. The fatal blow just now almost exhausted all her physical strength. Now that the danger is relieved, she just wants to have a good rest.

"Let's go back to the cave. The luggage is still there." Ning Chen stretched out his hand and picked up Emily and said.

Although it was already morning, Emily agreed with Ning Chen's opinion and took a break for a while, because Aesop's injury was also serious, and Emily and Ning Chen were also obviously weak. They raised the fire again, baked clothes and meat slices, ready to supplement their sleep and strength a little.

"How did you kill it?" Ning Chen asked.

"Although his attack power is high, his speed is fast, and his armor is thick, but I find that he seems to be single-minded and can only aim at a target attack, so I let you stay at the top of the tree to attract firepower. I found his position and split it with a sword, that's all." Emily spoke very easily. In fact, only she knew how difficult it would be.

"Realally use your apprentice as a shield!" Ning Chen cried and said, "But he came from the cold ice crown, and there will be more in the future, right?"

Emily nodded: "I told you before. You shouldn't take this thing. Look at the centaur Khan you mentioned, didn't he die because of this?"
