The robe Fen was wearing was made from the silk of a special kind of magic silkworm. The amount of manpower and resources needed to make it was unimaginable to those who had never come into contact with it. Just this robe alone cost a certain someone a few months' worth of income from the Tower of the Great Sage.
Even now, Lin still complained from time to time. What was the point of making such a long robe? Wasn't it better to make a miniskirt? It was cheaper by half, and it was more eye-catching to show off her long legs.
Speaking of robes, only those who knew their stuff would be able to tell. The Battleship Slicing Blade on Fen's back and the machete at her waist, even the slowest person would be able to sense the intimidating aura of authority emanating from the weapons. All of this proved one fact: I'm f * cking deadly!
However, Fen didn't bring the magic gun that was about to become a regular weapon. Perhaps she thought that slashing with a blade was more satisfying, but she didn't feel anything when using a gun.
In comparison, Hallumi kept her imitation PPK magic gun in the holster on her ankle as a secret weapon. Her previous experience had taught her a lesson. She understood that it was difficult to travel the world with only one move. Thus, she seriously thought of strategies and methods to deal with various situations. The magic gun, which was not favored by girls due to its abnormal energy consumption, became the last resort to save her life. Although her teacher had emphasized such a request in the past, she didn't feel that strongly until that failure.
As for a certain someone, he was lazily leaning against a tree trunk. He didn't bring any exaggerated equipment, and even the robe he was wearing was made of ordinary linen that was relatively cool to wear. He was playing with a throwing knife in his hand. It was slightly smaller than a palm, and the handle was short and thin. The center of gravity was on the axis of the front end. It could be considered a fine piece of craftsmanship in the mysterious land.
In the grass not far away, a rabbit ran out. Its red eyes met with a certain someone's, and it reminded Lin of the time when he first came to the mysterious land, when he was extremely hungry and was KO-ed by a rabbit. As a modern person, it was normal to be helpless against small animals the size of cockroaches, but it was hard to imagine being defeated by a herbivorous rabbit. If it wasn't for the old magician Charlie Richard who saved him, as a transmigrator, he would have died on the side of the road before he could show off.
He casually threw a throwing knife towards the sky. The rabbit that noticed it seemed to make a mocking expression, laughing at the fact that someone's random throwing knives were not threatening at all. In the next moment, the flying dagger appeared in front of the rabbit. The blade, which had already reached the peak of its speed, pierced through the rabbit's eyeballs and killed it in one strike!
With another flash, Lin arrived beside the rabbit and picked up his prey to examine it. In fact, he had been thinking about how to use Blink as the main battle tactic. Although it was very simple to directly use the Dimensional Banishment Spell, this spell had an uncontrollable hidden danger, and that was that there was no guarantee that the person or thing that was banished would never return. Although the chances were slim, it wasn't zero.
If those exiled people were lucky enough to return, it would be troublesome if unexpected changes were to occur due to the high-dimensional pollution. Furthermore, there was a possibility that it would become an unmanageable problem. Therefore, Lin defined the Dimensional Banishment Spell as a last resort when there was no other way. It was impossible to ban it. His life was at stake, so who would care about the consequences?
It was just that the various routines designed around Blink always made someone feel that there was still a layer of membrane that had not been broken through and could not really be used.
Blink seemed very convenient, but it was not like the speed of the DC Flash after all. Under the power of the formula F = ma, let's not talk about how hard Barry Allen's bones had to be in order for him to be able to punch someone without being hurt by the reaction force. Blink only allowed the object to remain in its original state and appear in another location.
There would not be any bonus in the process of Blink, if high-dimensional pollution could be counted. In other words, if the object itself did not have acceleration, there would be no so-called "force" and naturally, it would not be able to cause any damage.
Lin had also tried using Blink to teleport the sword into the body of a creature. But in the first place, it would not cause any harm to the creature. It was like a foreign object growing in the body, and there was no sense of disharmony.
Until the creature began to move, the hard sword in the body would not change position with the moving body and internal organs. On the contrary, its sharp blade would cut through all the flesh sent to the blade, and only then would it begin to cause damage. And this process was quite painful and cruel. It was even worse than the ancient torture of China — death by a thousand cuts.
Lin had only tried this once. When he dissected that unlucky experimental animal and saw a pile of messy internal organs, he had sealed this method away forever. Killing people was just a matter of nodding the head to the ground. There was no deep hatred of extermination, so it was better not to play this way.
And today's flying knife experiment was his latest attempt.
Before this, the method was to blink to the enemy's blind spot and then use a weapon, either to stab or cut. And the whole attack process was to blink, use a weapon, and cause damage. There were three steps, and it was not possible to directly cause damage after the blink.
The bad thing was that there was still a step of using a weapon. Although running to the enemy's blind spot could more or less bring about an unexpected effect, for a real master, the time it took for him, a sorcerer, to swing a sword was enough for him to die ten times.
As for the way to play with this flying knife, it seemed pretty good. At least the suddenness and destructive power were enough to deal with a rabbit without a problem …
Well, it seemed like there was still a long way to go.
"Teacher, the weasel has come out of the hole," Halloumi, who had been using the Water Mirror Spell all this time, suddenly said. Everyone immediately guessed that this was the latest news from Kaya, who had stayed behind to guard.
Lin, however, walked unhurriedly to the campfire where breakfast was being cooked. He had no intention of hiding. Instead, he slowly peeled the rabbit's fur and let out its blood. He asked, "Where are they now?"
"Well, they just left the south of the city."
"Understood. Pay attention to the direction and path they are taking. Report back at any time."
Halloumi, who had started preparing to pack up as soon as she received the news, looked at her teacher in confusion and asked, "Teacher, aren't you going to hide and ambush them?"
"Yes, if you hide well and they don't go this way, what are you going to do?"
With this question, the people who had been nervously preparing were also dumbfounded. Yes, before they could determine which path they were taking, they had to ambush them to the ends of the earth.
If they could determine which path they were taking, then launching a surprise attack from their hiding place should be the method with the highest success rate. But in reality, how could it be so easy to guess which path they were taking? Unless they knew which path they were taking today, it was possible to truly wait at ease for an exhausted enemy. Therefore, Lin said to the people who were in suspense and didn't know whether to be nervous or relaxed.
"Just be prepared and wait patiently for the notice. Besides, we are also under Kaya's control. She knows better than any of us how to block them. Also, she only hinted that they had left the city. She didn't ask us to move. "
"That's not true," Halloumi said uncertainly.
"That's why I said, be patient. If you are as impatient as you are, even a few lives won't be enough. "
After understanding the next arrangement, everyone calmed down and gathered around the campfire. Lin was roasting the rabbit meat. Although he didn't sprinkle spices on it like before, it was still roasted until it was fragrant and mouth-watering.
The group went out early in the morning. Because they had expected a battle, they had eaten early and casually ate something to fill their stomachs while waiting. Now that they smelled the aroma of the meat, some of their stomachs grumbled.
If it was before, perhaps Jemaine would have reached out to tear off a rabbit leg and gnawed on it. But now, he only dared to look at someone with teary eyes while wiping away the saliva that was about to drip down. Lin, however, said in disdain, "Go away, this isn't for you to eat."
"Hey, big brother, I only ate a little for breakfast. It's not enough. Even if there's no rabbit leg, any piece of meat will do. "
"Shh, shh." Lin waved his hand, trying to chase away the dwarf in front of him.
"Teacher!" Halloumi suddenly shouted, then seemed to sense that something was wrong. He lowered his voice and said, "Teacher, Kaya said the weasel is approaching. It's coming in our direction. "
Jemaine, who was beside him, also lowered his voice and asked, "Hey, big brother, how did you know the other party's path? How did you guess so accurately?"
Lin found it interesting and mimicked everyone else. He poked his head out and said in a low voice, "It's just because it's the shortest distance from here." Then he reached out and pushed the silver-bearded dwarf's bearded face away. He said in a normal voice, "They are coming this way. Aren't you going to hide?"
"Yes, yes. Hide. Mm, where are we hiding? "
The silver-bearded dwarves relied on their peaceful forces to run amok in the underground world. They didn't need to set up any ambushes or sneak attacks. They had always faced them head on and had never lost. So when they said they were going to ambush the enemy, they didn't know where to hide.
Lin pointed to the path in the forest, where the trees were denser, and said, "Spread out and lie down here."
At least he still had his tyrannical power. Although he wasted a few words to explain, he still made the dwarves lie down obediently in the pile of dead leaves. Lin even scattered a few more leaves, making sure that they could be completely covered, leaving only the range of their eyes.
Uzov didn't need anyone to tell him. He had already run to the other side of the path and hid himself well.
Halloumi didn't have much choice. Lin stood at a suitable place for an ambush and waved his hand. The apprentice lowered his head and walked over. He was pressed into the pile of dead leaves by his teacher. Everything was done according to the dwarves' situation.
The only one left standing glared angrily at a certain someone and said, "What do you think? Do you want to press me into the dead leaves as well? "
"Mm, use Blink to move to another location. When the fight starts here, let Kaya inform you and then Blink to join the battle. "
Fen gave him a "at least you know what's good for you" look and disappeared from his sight. Lin wiped the non-existent cold sweat on his forehead. This former Demon King was really hard to serve.
