Chapter 687

The battle at the cave of the rat has really begun!

A quarter of an hour ago, as Qinlun and the dwarven exploration team left, the seven apostles, led by Martha, began to approach the rat man cave carefully.

They were tight inside and loose outside, carrying the TIR night lights and carrying the large and small packages left by the dwarfs, pretending to be a small business trip to the underground city.

Since the time before the valley history, the dark elves failed in the war of elves' crown. They moved into the dark area together with the elves and became the drow elves. After that, they replaced the sunata dwarfs and became the new generation of rulers of the underground world.

However, after all, the dark area is no better than the surface world. There is a lack of many resources. In addition to stones, only stones are left here. Although the underground mineral resources are very rich, there are many biological nests, but compared with the surface world, it is a heaven and a earth.

The dark elves who used to live a luxurious life, and their gods, how can they adapt to this change. Perhaps the abnormal psychological state of drow and spider gods is just that they can't stand the barrenness of the dark area, and then they are slowly distorted and formed.

Drow spirits and the goddess rose, who fell to be Spider God, have never forgotten that one day they will attack the surface world.

It's better to say that they miss the surface life or prepare for the future counter attack on the surface world. In a word, after the drow elves built many underground cities, they generally allow surface business and tourism to trade in and out of the underground cities.

If it's some long-term cooperative caravans, the dungeon will send escorts for them as the case may be.

Because some specialties in the dark area are very rare in the surface world, such as various gems, dark creature magic cores, weapons and equipment produced by drow elves, tamed Minotaur slaves, etc., so long as they don't die in the dark area, the surface caravans often have great profits.

Therefore, although the business travelers all know that the drow elves are hard to trust, they still flock to them. Every year, many small business travelers venture into the dark area and seek to trade with the underground city.

The biggest problem of the surface caravan in the dark area is often not the insidious drow elves, but the unknown danger along the way. Sometimes, such a tribe of rat people as Weiss and others can bring disaster to a small caravan.

……

Although the apostles had heard Gilliam's introduction to the characteristics of gryphonia, they were shocked by the shrill sound of the chain after touching gryphonia for the first time.

The howling of the grey mushroom is a little like the chirping of the spout of a kettle when it is boiled. The sound of a single howling mushroom is nothing, but when the first howling mushroom starts, the vibration of the air soon causes a chain reaction.

The whole grey mushroom field was boiling, which made the apostles pale and flighty. For a long time, they were buzzing in their ears. No other sound could be heard clearly.

At this time, even Weiss was a little regretful. He didn't follow Martha's advice and put a piece of cotton cloth in his ear.

Even though there were three rat sentries running out of the rat man cave, the apostles were still unable to adapt to the howling of the mushroom, which made them look very embarrassed when dealing with the three rat men.

However, the only advantage is that even if they don't need to act at this time, the rat sentry believes that their weakness is not pretended. Soon a rat sentry ran back to the cave, called for reinforcements, and tried to catch them all.

After the second batch of adult rat people appeared, the number has reached more than 20, and they have also brought a mud monster. This mud monster is not very big, about two meters high, but the mud monster is small up and big down, and the radius of the chassis is almost two meters. From a distance, it looks like a miniature hill.

The mud monster has no long legs. It moves by crawling its chassis forward and has two huge arms on its side. There are three big stone toes in the front part of the arm. After clenching, it is like a hammer. It is very powerful.

Qin Lun saw the wounded dwarf at the beginning. It is estimated that he was hammered on his chest by a mud monster, which finally killed him.

Despite the large number of the second group of rat people and the help of mud monsters, the caravan disguised by the apostles also held steady. At this time, although they did not leave aside the harassment of the rat sentry, they have withdrawn from the influence of the howling mushroom.

Once the mind and spirit were not affected, the apostles were able to deal with more than 20 rat people.

However, the apostles did not release water in the dark. Even after stabilizing their positions, they broke out in a wave, killing the five rat people who rushed to the front, and then they fought and retreated to the direction of mushroom forest.

In gillim's introduction, they already know that the rat man is a very timid, cautious and cunning intelligent creature.

Since they are intelligent creatures, the rat man has his own ability of observation and judgment. If they are found to be flawed, the apostles can no longer seduce other rat men out of the rat man cave. After all, these twenty rat people in front of them are only a small part of the tribe.

The reason is that they have destroyed the previous group of dwarven explorers. According to this calculation, there are at least hundreds of adult warriors in the tribe.

The judgment of Martha and Weiss was correct. After finding that the existing forces could not take the caravan, and no other enemies were found nearby, the adult soldiers in the rat man cave poured out in large numbers.At this time, however, the rat people finally showed their cunning.

Qin Lun and others can see from a high place. The rat people in the nest are divided into three groups. One group of more than 20 joined the previous attack team, while the other two groups began to circle around martasha and others on both sides.

The whole number of the rat man team has risen to more than 100, as well as the two rat man priests holding sticks in the team, and several rat man thieves who have gone out of the cave to eliminate their body shape directly. Qin Lun and others who watched the war couldn't help but feel a cold sweat for their former companions.

Fortunately, under the guise of telepathy, Hill quickly provided the situation observed by Qin Lun to the leader, Martha, so that people do not have to worry about the development of the situation.

To the surprise of all the spectators, the master harpist, after learning that the rat man intended to encircle them, decided to settle down and wait for the success of the rat man encirclement before breaking through.

There are two advantages of doing this. Before the rat man can make a successful encirclement, they will step back, which is easy to arouse suspicion of the rat man. At the same time, he stepped into the ambush circle too early to catch all the rats.

But wait for the rat man to close the encirclement, then break through forcibly. Rat man will never doubt the existence of ambush, so he can step into the dwarf's ambush circle safely.

Of course, the risks are as obvious as the benefits. There are too many rat people, and mud monsters, priests, thieves Attack, defense and auxiliary team iron triangle profession is perfect. Once the breakthrough fails, the ambushed companions have to show up in advance to help.

In that case, not only the decoy plan fails, but the dwarven exploration team will continue to waste a lot of time in this place. Maybe they could kill the tribe in the end, but at that time, they paid too much, and did not know how much time the apostles had left.

To Qinlun's surprise, Weiss agreed to Martha's plan without hesitation. It seems that the high-ranking apostle is confident about the strength of his team.

As for hill and Rand, Qin Lun didn't worry about them at all. Hill has the lineage of spirit sucking monsters, and his several talents are the nemesis of lower underground creatures such as rat man. And Rand's large area fire skill is enough for him to support the reinforcements in any critical situation.

The development of the follow-up situation is completely under the control of martasha and others, but the intensity of the battle has opened the eyes of Qin Lun and others.

The team leader is the shield guard of Weiss team. The tall human defender with large tower shield shows the true value of team Mt.

In the battle, his two core abilities play an important role, one is the range control technology "war horn", the other is the range defense technology "heavy shield attack".

The war horn is the advanced skill of warrior's battle roar. Every war horn of Dunwei will make the encirclement formed by rat man and mud monster trapped and forced to appear a gap.

The rat man priest in charge of the command finally had to divide the encirclement into two layers to prevent the small caravan from breaking through.

The heavy shield attack is the most excellent defense skill Qin Lun has ever seen. When this kind of shield attack is activated, there will be more than a dozen shadows on both sides of the shield guard. Each shadow seems to have a part of the power of the body.

After the heavy shield attack, all the rats and men in front of the shield guard will be killed. Even the mud monsters will be paralyzed for a long time before they can be put into the fight again. It can be said that if Dunwei didn't have these two skills, it's hard to say how long this small team's defense formation can last under the attack of the rat man warrior.

With the efforts of Dunwei, including martasha and other apostles, they all showed their strength appropriately.

The female apostle of Weiss's group, at this time, finally revealed her apostolic career. She is a holy light pastor more like a pastor than hill. Every time her healing light is just right, so that the most stressed shield guard can relieve fatigue in time and quickly restore combat effectiveness.

With the presence of the Holy Light priest, Hill no longer uses the recovery magic of the half suspender, but shows his attack ability as a chaotic priest, constantly sending out purple and black ray beams in his hands.

Every rat and human touched by purple or black ray will roll painfully and lose their fighting power completely. They will fall to the ground quietly and die directly.

Chaos priest is the advanced profession of prayer priest. In the first-order prayer priest, Hill's divinity is mostly some gain magic and low decrees. When he was promoted to the second level chaos priest, the terror ability of this career line began to appear.

Hill's purple ray is "dark word: pain", while black ray is "high word: vanish".

"Dark speech: pain" is the determination of will. Creatures that can't pass will feel unparalleled pain in a certain period of time.

"Truth: Vanishing" is even more terrifying. It's a direct judgment of biological constitution. If you can't pass the judgment, you will die directly.

Of course, these two chaotic prayers consume a lot, and the upper limit of judgment is related to Hill's own will and constitution. If you are in front of the same level creatures, you will not be as effective as you are in the low-level mice.In addition to hill, the performance of the other two long-range professions in the team can only be said to be regular. Martasha's archery skills have not been used to the maximum extent. She also needs to observe the war situation and control the overall situation.

At the same time, he paid attention to the actions of the opposite rat priest. He had to interrupt the recovery spells of the two rat priests from time to time.

One is to prevent them from paying attention and observing the surrounding environment. The other is to try to suppress the achievements of the rat man priest in rescuing the severely injured rat man, so as to reduce the pressure for the later battles.

In contrast, Rand and thieves play a special role. They don't cooperate with other people. The two men are in several rogue professions that specialize in dealing with the rat tribe.

Rand purposely blasted small lava balls. The fire rain formed by small lava balls did not cause much damage, but it covered a large area and could break the stealth of thieves. Once the rat thief shows his body shape, the monkey will immediately wrap it up and fight for an outbreak to repel or even hurt the rat thief.

The two basically ensured that the small team would not be damaged by the rat man bandits, so that it could last for a long time.

The only one who didn't perform his combat duties was Weiss, the most powerful member of the team. At this time, the high-ranking apostles played the role of a businessman who was angry, despicable and shrewd.

He murmured dirty words that no one could understand, scolded his companions who pretended to be mercenaries of the caravan, and also conducted them in a disorderly way, but no one paid attention to him when everyone cooperated very well.

Weiss succeeded in reassuring the rat people and concentrating all his forces on them. At this time, with the passage of time, there are more than 130 rat people joining in the enclosure in the rat man cave. Qin Lun and others even saw the edge of the enclosure, several obviously underage rat people.

At last, this tribe of rat people was slowly squeezed out by Martha and others. Qin Lun believed that after encircling these rat men, the tribe would not be able to recover for a long time, so it would not be able to interfere with the subsequent dwarven exploration team.

In spite of the fierce fighting, Martha noticed that the situation was moving in the direction they expected. She abruptly cancelled the breakthrough plan, so she fought and retreated, luring the many rat people surrounding them to move slowly to the dwarf's ambush circle
