The three of them were about ten meters away from the platform where the guards were. There were still two pillars in front of them. If they wanted to, they could get closer, but it wouldn't make much sense. They could already attack from here, and if they went any further, the risk of being exposed would be greater.
The prison guards of the Temple of Light were all elites, and they were very vigilant. Sax decided to be more cautious and did not plan to go further. He first pointed at the two guards on the right side of the platform, and then pointed at himself, indicating that he would deal with them. He then looked at Luo Bu and Luo Luo.
The girl gritted her teeth and chose the nearest bald Paladin.
Sax nodded, took out an hourglass from his bosom and put it on the ground. This hourglass flowed very fast, and at this rate, in less than half a minute, all the sand would fall into the bottle below.
When the sand above the funnel flowed out, it would be time for the attack to begin.
Sax bent his bow, narrowed his eyes, and quickly entered the state of forgetting himself and his surroundings. He was a rank eight archer, and with such a close distance and a sneak attack, he was confident that he could take care of anyone. However, this time he had to deal with two people at the same time. The interval between the first and second arrow must be short enough, and the next arrow must be shot before the other target realized what was happening. This was not easy for him, so after Sax assigned the targets, he no longer paid attention to the situation on Rob's side.
Lolo grasped the staff in her hand. She was very nervous now, and her mind was completely blank. So much so that Rob had to remind her, "It's almost time, you have to start chanting."
"Chanting? Chanting what?" Lolo asked blankly.
"What is your best single target attack magic?" The future Supreme Magister Your Honor patiently guided her.
"Earth … Earth Spike?" The girl finally came back to her senses. She realized that she was in big trouble. The only rank three fire magic that Lolo had mastered was too noisy, and she couldn't use it at this time. What's worse was that she had just learned a few days ago, and now she was so nervous that she completely forgot about the rank two water arrow magic. She only had a rank one earth magic left in her head, and because she practiced a lot, she could barely remember it.
"So be it. There's no time to hesitate," Rob said.
Even the most arrogant Magician wouldn't do such a crazy thing to use a Basic Tier 1 Spell against a Tier 7 expert. But just as a certain someone said, there was no time for her to think about her choice.
Unbeknownst to them, more than half of the sand had flowed away. There were less than ten seconds left before they launched their attack. This amount of time was only enough for them to cast a single Tier 1 Spell.
Lolo struggled to complete the chant of the Earth Spike. Just at the last moment when the hourglass ran out, the girl heard the sound of an arrow piercing through the air. Sax had already made his move. At the same time, a figure also rushed out from the darkness on the left side of the platform. It was a ghost that had been lurking for a long time. Lolo's right hand that was holding the staff was trembling slightly. She pointed it at the bald guard.
As expected of a well-trained Holy Knight, the moment the magic was formed, he noticed it and turned his head to look behind him. There was a crack in the ground.
Too slow, the bald Holy Knight thought to himself. He had already recognized that this was a Tier 1 Earth Spell, Earth Spike. This level of magic was not something he would take seriously. This should be a small trick used by the enemy to divert their attention.
Sure enough, he saw a figure jump out from the darkness. A cold glint of a dagger slashed across the neck of a young Holy Knight. At the same time, he heard the sound of an arrow piercing through armor. His companion beside him let out a muffled groan and fell to the ground.
There was more than one enemy, and one of them was a very powerful Archer! The bald Holy Knight knew that he and his team were no match for the enemy. Without hesitation, he took off the horn from his waist and put it to his mouth. He did not care about the crack in the ground. A Tier 1 Spell needed time to cast, and with his skills, he could easily dodge the Earth Spike before it appeared.
As long as he blew the horn, the entire tower would hear the alarm. It was definitely not as simple as luck that these people could sneak into the seventh floor without a sound. Before they launched their attack, they did not touch any of the mechanisms and traps on this floor. The safe passage to enter the tower was most likely in the hands of the criminals outside. Therefore, the priority now was to first lock down the entire tower.
The bald Holy Knight wanted to blow the horn, but in the next moment, his head suddenly sank.
He was very experienced in combat. He immediately realized that he had been hit by a Mind Spell. Moreover, it was a high-level Mind Spell. Fortunately, Holy Knights had the highest Mind Resistance among all the professions. Relying on his firm belief, he quickly got rid of the opponent's mind control.
However, on the battlefield, even a moment of hesitation was enough to be fatal, not to mention that he had paused for two to three seconds. When he came back to his senses, the Tier 1 Spell had already been cast. Three Earth Spikes protruded from the crack in the ground, stabbing towards his chest.
The bald Holy Knight could not dodge in time, but he did not panic. He was very confident in the armor he was wearing. It was not a standard armor. It was a gift from a friend. There were even Divine Runes engraved on the inside, which greatly increased the durability of the armor. Not to mention a Tier 1 Spell, even a Tier 3 Spell would have a hard time breaking it.
In fact, the three Earth Spikes broke as soon as they came into contact with his armor. They did not even leave a mark on it. Just when the bald Holy Knight thought that the danger was over, he suddenly sensed an extremely dangerous aura.
A fourth Earth Spike emerged from the crack. Different from the previous three, this Earth Spike grew at an unimaginable speed. In almost an instant, it had reached his chest. What happened next made the bald Holy Knight even more terrified. His armor was like a piece of paper in front of this Earth Spike. The half-inch thick steel plate was easily pierced through. The Divine Runes emitted a dazzling light, but after half a second, it could no longer hold on and shattered.
In the next moment, his vision turned black. The Earth Spike had already pierced through his heart. The horn in his hand also fell to the ground.
At the same time, Sax had also killed the last guard. He put away his bow and gave the girl a thumbs up.
The battle just now happened very quickly, and the bald Holy Knight had his back to them. Apart from him, the others could only see the gist of it. They saw Luo Luo release a spell, and then the bald Holy Knight was pierced by the Earth Spikes into a candied haw.
