"Holding hands" was completely forced by the situation, and both of them had a tacit understanding. Accustomed to Kardashian's carefree personality, Roddy did not feel that there was any ambiguous meaning, so he did not have any other thoughts in his mind, and carefully observed the "half plane" in front of him.
After Kardashian confirmed that the "traps" in each plane had not been activated, the two had quickly passed through more than 30 different planes, including muddy swamps, basins with torrential rain, grasslands full of animals, and saline-alkali lands full of white crystals. Roddy could not see the connection between these planes, and if it was not for Kardashian's guidance, he probably would not even be able to find the "portal" — because these strange planes could not be entered and exited as one pleased, and those "exits" to leave were hidden in all kinds of strange places. If he was trapped here, Roddy estimated that he would not be able to get out for the rest of his life.
Because "Witcher's Vision" was also a spellcasting skill, Roddy did not dare to use it at all — he admitted that he was frightened by the "Prison of Time and Space", and now he had a serious psychological shadow, and did not even dare to think of "spellcasting".
At this time, Kardashian's outstanding knowledge and perception stood out. This Magic Tower could only suppress strength, but it could not block "intelligence". After all, Dragons were one of the most powerful races in this world, and Kardashian had now roughly drawn a "plane map" in her mind, and led Roddy to the plane that was only one step away from the "destination".
But the two of them did not come here to immediately enter the "destination" — looking at the dense tropical rainforest in front of them, Roddy took a deep breath and asked, "Are you sure it is here?"
"Seventy percent probability, there is no way to make a conclusion on this kind of thing."
Kardashian's brows were still knitted, and it was obvious that she was making a series of deductions in her mind.
"No battle can be 100% certain, seventy percent is already very high."
Roddy pulled out the dagger from his boot and nodded. "Your judgment is definitely correct. I believe it."
In the past, Kardashian would definitely raise her chin and proudly say, "Who do you think I am?" However, Roddy did not see her showing off at all. Instead, she continued to frown as if she was calculating something in her mind.
Both of them looked rather disheveled, but because they had eaten and slept well, they were in good condition. Roddy raised his head and looked at the sky that was almost covered by trees. He slowly exhaled. He was no stranger to this kind of battle.
*****
Kardashian's judgment was not wrong.
After two whole days, Elder Kyle's team finally stepped into this plane in a sorry state.
To be honest, he really did not expect to enter such a place where he could not walk to the end. The only fortunate thing was that he had coincidentally caught three "mages" as guides. Otherwise, with just a group of "arcane warriors" who did not have a high level of magic, they would not even be able to find the way out.
Even so, it was not easy for a team of sixteen to travel between these planes. In total, they had only eaten a total of three meals in three days.
After all, not all the "half planes" had food to eat. The result of being so hungry was that someone had vomited and had diarrhea yesterday because he ate the wrong fruit and almost collapsed. If it was not for the fact that they found a plane with fresh fish, the team would probably have been "wiped out" by now.
No matter how elite the team was, as long as they were people, their morale would be extremely low when they were starving. Elder Kyle also understood this, so he was quite anxious. He wiped off the greasy sweat on his face and licked his dry lips. "Finally, we have a reliable environment. Everyone, hurry up and find some water to drink!"
There was a gurgling stream in the rainforest in front of them, and they could also hear the sounds of insects. As for whether there was food or not … it was not important to Kyle at this moment. "Just now, you said that the team is about to reach the exit?"
"Elder … according to our deduction, we should be very close to the exit. There is a high probability that we will directly reach the end!"
The three arcanists' judgment was the same. After all, their abilities were not comparable to Kardashian's. The Dragons had found the pattern after passing through the fifth door, and the route they took after that could be called "the shortest distance". And the three arcanists had been "following the steps" for the past few days, and they had taken more than ten times the route to reach here.
If it were not for the fact that there were no "traps" in these half planes, this group of people would probably have been dead long ago.
Even if they did not encounter any "accidents", the arcane warriors felt that it was very difficult to reach this point. In all kinds of strange "half planes", the environment was either extremely cold or extremely hot. One of them was even completely submerged in water, and they could only rely on swimming and diving to move forward. At this point, they were basically exhausted. After hearing the "guarantee" from the three sorcerers, many people secretly let out a sigh of relief: it was finally going to end!
With this thought in mind, the neat formation of the team became a little loose. Dozens of meters tall trees stretched out in their vision. Although it was hot and humid, it was still within the acceptable range. The group of people walked towards the place where the water source was in such an environment. When they finally heard the gurgling of water, the arcane warrior in front of them trotted a few steps, came to the pool of dozens of square meters, squatted down, and scooped up a handful of water. After sniffing it carefully, he drank a mouthful, got up and replied, "It's fresh water! There are fish and prawns in it, so it should not be a problem. "
Although everyone's throats were smoking from thirst, with the previous "food poisoning" scene, they did not dare to casually confirm the safety of the water. Kyle waved at the people behind him. "Set up camp here for the time being. Clermont, Jacob, and Bishop! Be on guard outside! Wait for half an hour before drinking water. "
"Yes!"
The whole team was like a loose rubber band, and many people were so tired that they directly collapsed to the ground. But as soon as the reply fell, Kyle heard a "bang", and then a huge rock with a rope tied to it fell from above.
"Ah!"
At the same time, Cremont, who was standing at the outermost circle of the team, let out a scream. A vine wrapped around his ankle and pulled him into the air!
A trap!?
Everyone was already physically and mentally exhausted, and when they saw this scene, they were collectively stunned. When Kyle realized that this was a man-made trap, the sound of bowstrings vibrating in the air had already become one …
Originally, these people were facing the direction of the pool, and Cremont was standing right at the back of the team. When they turned around to look at him, the arrows just happened to be flying towards them — caught off guard, the three Arcane Warriors at the outermost circle were instantly hit in the chest, and without a sound, they directly fell backwards …
Kyle's expression changed greatly. Others might not know, but he could tell from the muffled sound of the arrows hitting the flesh — the Arcane Warriors all wore mithril light armor, and the chest was the thickest and best protected area. Logically speaking, ordinary arrows should not even have the ability to penetrate the defense. But the strength of the three arrows easily penetrated the chest, and even hit the strong Arcane Warriors backwards … Was this some kind of continuous firing crossbow?
Suddenly ambushed, Kyle knew that he could not be completely passive, so he shouted, "Find cover! Straight ahead, throw the short spears! "
Six of the Arcane Warriors in the team carried short spears with them, and he could already see the figure hiding behind a huge tree not far away, shooting arrows. For the Arcane Warriors, a distance of less than 40 meters was completely within their shooting range.
"Whoosh!"
The sound of the short spears whistled through the air, but the muffled groans of being hit by the arrows did not stop. Kyle's expression was tense, and he took the lead to rush towards the huge tree at the side. Although he did not know how many enemies there were, the rainforest environment was a great hindrance to arrows. After all, in a situation where they did not cast any spells, the arrows would not be able to bend at all.
Even so, he had obviously underestimated the strength of the enemy. From the side, an Arcane Warrior had just raised his short spear when an arrow pierced through his collarbone, causing him to lose his balance, and the short spear in his hand fell to the ground with a clang …
Eight arrows shot out, two dead, and three injured.
Including the one who had been hung in mid-air by the trap, the team of 16 people had lost six people in the blink of an eye!
If the three Arcane Masters who were dodging around without any combat ability were included, there were only seven people left in the team.
