At this moment, the battlefield was filled with the groans of the wood elves who were being beaten. The mercenaries thought that they had the situation under control and lowered their heads to control the elves who were still alive. Of course, the so-called "control" didn't mean tying them up or knocking them unconscious.
In short, in their eyes, the situation was completely under their control.
That was why Kevin, who was standing in the distance and squeezing water from his water bag to wash his face, did not expect that in just five seconds, four of his men would be killed right under his nose.
Natha didn't dare to make a sound, but her breathing quickened because of the excitement in her heart. The other elves also noticed this and widened their eyes in surprise. They tried to look around, hoping to see the figure who shot the arrow. But no matter how hard they looked, the surrounding forest seemed to be as quiet as before.
They couldn't even catch a trace of his aura.
The exaggerated laughter of the mercenaries continued, but the corpses with arrows in their heads were lying in front of Natha. For a moment, she thought that this was a dream. She even had a silly question in her mind: Is this … considered a battle?
In Natha's mind, the so-called "battle" was always between prey and prey. As for battles with humans or other races, she didn't think about it at all. She didn't know what it should be like. And her thoughts were a microcosm of the entire wood elven race …
These hunters, who had never been in a real battle, were fundamentally different from "soldiers".
Being able to shoot at the humans under Brody's orders was already the most 'out of line' thing they had done in many years. Therefore, it wasn't a 'surprise' that they were completely crushed by the humans who outnumbered them by half in melee combat.
It was also because of their previous terrible defeat that they were already extremely afraid of these human mercenaries. However, in the blink of an eye, the terrifying damage caused by the arrows that appeared and disappeared mysteriously left the Wood Elves completely dumbfounded. When they saw these humans die without a sound, there was only one question that appeared in their minds: Can arrows be shot like this?
"Puff!"
A mercenary who was humming a tune and lowering his head to tie a knot suddenly trembled and fell to the side. An arrow had pierced through his head, and the sharp tip of the arrow had even pierced through his chin. Three meters away, his comrade, who was packing up his weapons, turned around because of the commotion. When he saw the scene in front of him, he opened his mouth to shout, but a hand instantly reached out from behind and covered his mouth. Then, a sharp dagger directly slit his throat …
The two mercenaries fell to the ground at the same time, but their movements seemed to be in slow motion because they were supporting each other with their hands. Even when they hit the ground, there was no sound.
Six people.
Natha's breathing quickened, because she could see how the two mercenaries were instantly killed!
When the figure that jumped down from the tree looked up and met her eyes, Natha's hands instantly clenched the withered grass on the ground. That person was Roddy!
Before he appeared, Natha didn't even notice that there was someone hiding in the tree. But after Roddy killed the two mercenaries, his figure strangely disappeared from Natha's sight. This silent assassination from start to finish took less than three seconds, and the other mercenaries actually still didn't notice Roddy's existence!
Natha unconsciously suppressed her rapid breathing … afraid that the other mercenaries would notice something strange here. She carefully looked around, and the mercenaries who were busy handling the captives were still busy with their own things. Roddy's figure couldn't be found at all.
But under such circumstances, her gaze swept to the distance for two seconds, and when she looked back again, a mercenary in her field of vision fell to the ground and was then silently dragged behind the tree.
The seventh!
Natha's lips tightened, and her previous worry for Roddy had disappeared under this silent scene. Even she didn't notice that at this time, her confidence in Roddy had almost exceeded the confidence she had in herself during the usual hunting.
In other words, in her mind, there was only pure "worship" for Roddy, and no "doubt".
She looked at the mercenary leader Kevin who still didn't notice all this, and in her heart, she compared the strength of the two. Thinking of that powerful giant snake, she couldn't help but look at the place where the snake king Sakya had fallen. But when she looked over, she almost cried out in surprise.
Natha saw that the tail of the giant snake suddenly swayed.
But this kind of thing couldn't affect what was happening on the battlefield at this time. Under the gaze of the wood elves, Roddy continued to appear and disappear in the forest like a ghost. He clearly didn't have any "invisibility" spell, but from beginning to end, he wasn't discovered.
There were a few times when Roddy even swaggered towards a few mercenaries, but these mercenaries either had their backs to him, or turned their heads at the most precise moment, completely ignoring the existence of Roddy. Then they were killed with a knife or an arrow!
When the ninth mercenary fell, the wood elves even had an illusion: Did these mercenaries plan with Roddy beforehand, and then put on such a show in front of them?
Although they knew it was absolutely impossible, they really couldn't figure out how Roddy could have such precise and "coquettish" positioning!
Everything that Roddy did in silence was beyond the wood elves' understanding, so much so that their moans and wails due to pain and injuries were gradually suppressed, and their curses and yells disappeared …
It had to be said that this group of wood elves really didn't have much of a tacit understanding with Roddy, so much so that at this time, they unconsciously became "pig teammates".
The sudden silence on the battlefield made the mercenaries immediately feel that something was wrong. They were still thinking of tying up elves to sell for money, but when they looked up, they immediately found that the number of companions around them had suddenly decreased by a lot. This made them panic, and they hurriedly looked around, only to find that their companions had already died in the corner …
They were all mercenaries who had experienced battle, and they immediately understood what this scene meant. While cold sweat covered their bodies, at the same time, words like "enemy attack" and "beware of hidden arrows" suddenly rang out in the forest.
"Magic Swordsman" Kevin was strong, but because the battle had gone too smoothly, he was too conceited. After he dealt with the most troublesome wood elf hunters, he directly strolled out of the battlefield, and in an extremely "pretentious" manner, used a water bag to wash the blood stains on his hands. But in the end, before he could finish his "pretentious" act, he turned around and found that almost half of his subordinates had mysteriously disappeared!
"What happened?"
He raised his eyebrows, and casually threw away the empty water bag he had just emptied, and shouted at the mercenaries who were like birds startled by the mere twang of a bow, "What are you all standing there for?"
Kevin said as he walked towards the mercenaries, only to find that the originally surly fellows' faces were filled with fear. He narrowed his eyes, and just as he was about to say something, his eyes suddenly widened —
Right in front of him, one of his subordinates, who was thirty meters away, suddenly twitched, and then fell to the ground, clutching the arrow that had pierced through his throat!
Kevin gripped his longsword tightly, his face immediately full of anger … To dare to assassinate someone in front of him, this was definitely a kind of provocation!
And not waiting for these mercenaries to find the location of the enemy, a figure suddenly rushed out from behind the giant tree, stepping over the wood elves on the ground who had lost the ability to fight, and directly rushed towards them —
"Huh? You have guts! "
Kevin sneered, but he did not waste any more words. He charged towards the person who had come!
Needless to say, this person who rushed out of the shadows was Roddy, who had just rushed over from the ruins of Wagra.
In his vision, Kevin's name was bright red, which meant that there was a big difference in level between Roddy and the other party. No matter what, he would not choose to face such an enemy head-on — but at this moment, Roddy had full confidence to deal with these fellows who wanted to destroy the wood elves!
Because just two minutes ago, he had finally completed the [Profession Advancement Mission].
Rody did not expect to meet the Snake King Sakya, who had been blasted to the ground and had only 3% of her health left. He also did not expect that when he appeared in front of Sakya, the power of Ducar's book would be activated. Moreover, he also did not expect that when he appeared in front of Sakya, the power of Ducar's book would be activated. That would also allow Sakya to have a 7-minute 'Soul Link' with him.
On the [Status Bar], an icon with a "snake head" was flashing.
And on Roddy's new [Magic Pet] column, the words "Snake King Sakya (Aging)" were displayed. Below this line of words, there were six skills, and at the same time, there was a display of HP and MP.
But at this time, the icon on the [Magic Pet]'s skill column was gray, indicating that Roddy could not control the Snake King Sakya to use these skills.
But from the description of the [Mission Bar], Roddy was very clear about his current state …
He did not obtain this terrifyingly powerful magic pet just because the "mission" was over. The reason for this situation was that if a "witcher" wanted to complete his profession advancement, he had to use such a "ritual" to open the "Mana Pool" in his head!
The "Mana Pool" was the signature feature of a magic profession. To put it bluntly, only with the "Mana Pool" would Roddy's Attribute Bar open up the "Mana Value" display. And this situation was completely because he was the heir of the "witcher," Ducal. He had to establish a "Soul Link" with Sakya and use all six spells within seven minutes to complete the "Mana Pool" activation.
This feeling was like in the martial arts novels that Roddy had read in the past, where one had to use the help of a high teacher to open up the Conception and Governor Vessels. It was completely relying on external forces to strengthen oneself …
But he did not expect that the "use of all six spells" was not for Roddy to command the Snake King Sakya to cast, but for him to cast them himself!
This was the reason why Roddy was confident in facing all the mercenaries in front of him head-on … because a "witcher" could directly cast the skills of a "Magic Pet"!
Although it sounded like a dream, there were indeed six skills listed on the top of the [Skill Bar], and they were no different from the skills of the Snake King Sakya in the [Magic Pet Bar]. They were all in a "lit" state.
Similarly, the "Mana Value" also showed a number under the effect of the "Soul Link," indicating that he was sharing the Snake King Sakya's Mana Value.
In other words, after advancing to Level 1, with a base level of 10, Roddy had all the skills and Mana Value of a Level 45 Snake King!
