The effect of the firewall was obvious. It directly hindered the attack of the Gnolls.
But it only delayed them. It could not effectively harm the Gnolls.
When more and more Gnolls came from the eastern gap, the pressure on the adventurers and the guards suddenly increased.
But at least the firewall created a relatively narrow and closed space. The Gnolls could not swarm in.
Under such circumstances, the human side, who had the advantage of personal strength, had the advantage.
As the captain of the Thorns team, Gru naturally had some skills.
He alone blocked the front. Every time he waved his heavy sword, he could kill more than two Gnolls!
His strength was amazing!
The other adventurers also attacked separately.
They each had their own skills. It might be difficult to use them on the battlefield, but in such a small space, they could maximize their abilities!
This was also something Ma Wen considered.
The adventurers could not be used as an army. But in small-scale battles, they could play a very good role.
For example, now, there was no need for the guards. Just the Lynx and Thorns teams could stop these Gnolls.
However, this obstruction was only temporary.
Because no matter how strong the adventurers were, there would be a time when their physical strength was exhausted.
The Gnolls had an absolute advantage in numbers.
If there was no way to suppress their morale … the final defeat was likely to be on the human side!
"You must succeed!"
Anna pierced the heart of a Gnoll with her sword and secretly looked to the east.
…
Joey's movements were very slow.
Because even at this distance, if he moved too fast, he could still be detected by the Warlock.
He did not intend to kill the Warlock with a sneak attack because it would be useless.
The Warlock had a faint force field on him. This force field could change the direction of the arrow. It was the nemesis of archers.
And his Eye of Pain was the nemesis of assassins.
With the combination of the two, this Gnoll Warlock was very difficult to kill.
In order to achieve this, only Marvin and Joey's perfect cooperation could be achieved!
Joey took a deep breath and steadily put an arrow on his bow!
There was a slight tremor in the wind.
However, the Gnoll Warlock's attention was all on the battlefield!
He didn't seem to notice the two-man team that had ambushed him.
"There's hope …"
Joey took aim one last time and finally let go of the gun!
Whoosh!
When the arrow tore through the air and shot out, Joey's figure was exposed!
The Gnolls guarding the Warlock immediately realized that something was wrong, but at that moment, the arrows had already whizzed past them.
The Warlock was shocked. He took half a step back, but was stunned to find that the arrow was not aimed at him!
On the contrary, the arrow was very crooked and actually hit the ground under his feet.
Was this a human archer with a terrible standard?
The Gnoll guard was startled and immediately began to mock Joey's archery.
However, at this moment, the Warlock suddenly let out a strange cry!
This was because he discovered that the end of the arrow was actually tied with a rope!
Not far away, about 60 meters away, a figure crawling on the ground appeared in the Warlock's eyes.
Ma Wen quickly recited an incantation!
Like a snake, the rope came to life. It automatically dropped the arrow and quickly wrapped around the Warlock's feet!
Wishful Rope!
Although it was only a glimmering item, in battle, as long as it was used skillfully, it could completely change the outcome of the battle!
The Warlock was shocked!
He mumbled for a while as he tried to untie the rope.
However, although his casting speed was fast, Ma Wen's movements were faster!
He pulled the rope and changed the incantation!
The rope suddenly began to shrink!
The Warlock staggered and fell to the ground. He was pulled over by the hanging leg.
In almost two breaths, the Warlock arrived at Ma Wen's side!
The Gnoll guard turned pale with fright and charged over with a howl.
However, it was all too late.
Joey revealed a relaxed smile.
He took out his bow and arrows and began to kill the Gnoll guard.
"It's over."
He thought to himself.
…
When faced with prey that was in his hands, Ma Wen never showed mercy!
No matter how fast the Gnoll Warlock's reaction was, he could not be faster than Ma Wen's double blades!
There was only one outcome for a spellcaster to be so close to a melee ranger, and that was death.
Bang bang bang!
Three slashes shattered the Warlock's protective force field, and the last slash, Ma Wen used all his strength and slashed at the Gnoll Warlock's neck!
There was a cracking sound.
The Gnoll's neck broke, but the sound was a little strange.
"Wait …"
Ma Wen suddenly felt that something was wrong!
This Gnoll Warlock's body …
In the next second, the Gnoll Warlock's body began to erode, and in an instant, it turned into a Gnoll statue made of mud.
"F * ck!"
Ma Wen cursed. "It's actually an Earth Puppet. F * cking Warlock, this is a demon! "
Ma Wen did not kill the Gnoll Warlock!
This was just a Earth Puppet that the Gnoll Warlock had deliberately put on the surface!
The real Gnoll Warlock was still hidden among the Gnolls.
Joey was also shocked when he saw this scene.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden burst of battle cries coming from behind the hill!
A Gnoll adjutant rode on a mutant aardwolf and led another Gnoll troop, charging over aggressively!
Their target was Ma Wen himself!
"It's over."
At this time, this was the only thought in Joey's mind.
…
"Joey! You go first! "
Marvin roared angrily. At this critical moment, he made a prompt decision and gave the order.
Ma Wen rushed too deep, and there was no way he could outrun the Gnoll adjutant and the Aardwolf he was riding!
Joey, on the other hand, was a little further away. If he ran with all his might, he might be able to escape back to the camp.
The Archer did not hesitate and turned to leave!
Since the Double Blade Mask had said so, there was no reason for him to stay where he was.
The plan had failed.
That Gnoll Warlock was too cunning.
However, before turning to run, he suddenly pointed his finger at the center of the new Gnoll troop that had appeared!
A faint glow flickered, and suddenly, a big mark of two crossed swords fell on a thin Gnoll!
That was the true body of the Gnoll Warlock!
It could be said that Joey had displayed all his strength.
This mark was enough to guide Ma Wen. If he could still carry out the decapitation plan.
After doing all this, the Archer no longer hesitated and ran away!
Ma Wen was left alone to face more than 60 Gnolls!
There were also three mutant Aardwolves and a Gnoll Warlock.
…
There was a slight disturbance in the camp.
The wall of fire gradually began to weaken, and as the fire slowed down, the pressure on the human side increased a lot.
In fact, at the same time Joey shot that arrow, many adventurers had already noticed the situation over there.
When Ma Wen succeeded in catching the Gnoll Warlock with the Wishful Rope, there was a burst of amazing cheers in the camp.
They felt that they had already won!
Without the command of the Gnoll Warlock, the Gnolls were just a group of mobs!
They would definitely win!
However, what happened next was completely out of their expectations.
Although they were far away and could not see clearly what happened. But Joey's escape and the sudden appearance of another Gnoll unit on the hill were bad news.
The Double Blade Mask failed!
This was the only thought in everyone's mind.
The Gnoll Warlock divided his troops into two groups and attacked in two different directions. The previous reckless raid was actually just a bait.
His goal was to force the human side to show their trump card.
Obviously, he did it.
The adventurers showed a depressed look.
They saw Ma Wen standing alone under the hill, facing more than 60 Gnolls.
In such a situation, only a Grade 2 powerhouse with considerable melee and defensive abilities could hope to break out of the encirclement.
Although the Ranger was a very comprehensive profession, in this case, it seemed that there was no other way.
Even if he was the Double Blade Mask, he was dead!
Verne's eyes kept rolling, and he had already begun to think about how to escape.
This mission failed.
It was not that the human side was too bad, but that the Gnoll Warlock was too cunning.
However, although the adventurers were about to give up, the members of the White River Valley guards did not!
They stared at Ma Wen's back, and Andre said impulsively, "Let's rush out and save him!"
The captain of the Thorns squad, Gru, also nodded and said, "I'll go with you."
He did not want anything to happen to the Double Blade Mask. If his daughter really had the plague, even a high-grade priest would not be able to do anything.
However, at this time, Anna calmly waved her hand and said:
"No."
"Everyone, guard this place."
"Everyone, don't move."
Everyone looked at Anna in astonishment.
Was she going to watch the Double Blade Mask die tragically in the mouths of the Gnolls?
"Open your eyes." Anna's tone was a little excited.
"Some scenes are hard to see in a lifetime. Don't miss it."
