Lord of the Myriad Worlds

Chapter 132: The Battle of the Quarry

"Go!"

Li Wei suddenly spoke softly, and the group immediately understood. They stood up and broke into a trot, charging up the steep slope towards the hill above the Quarry.

And almost simultaneously, the sound of howling wolves rang out from behind the hill. Following closely from over three hundred meters away, the curses of a charge sounded as thirty robbers howled and pounced forward.

Both sides had laid their cards on the table!

Now it was the black-robed Witch's turn to be the gambling dog.

She either had to flee far away again immediately to avoid battle, or she had to gamble on whether she plus two Two-Star mutated Blood Wolves could stall Li Wei and the others.

To facilitate the encirclement of those thirty robbers!

And undoubtedly, she was a gambling dog!

Gambling is human nature, hard to avoid. Sometimes, just an instant can make a person impulsively make a certain decision, because they can truly see the dawn of victory!

"&......*%￥&......&"On the hill, the two Two-Star mutated Blood Wolves pounced over ferociously. The black-robed Witch was no longer riding a Blood Wolf, maximizing the Blood Wolves' combat power. As for herself, she stood on the hill, muttering words—looking quite the part?

But at this moment, Li Wei charged very fast!

He completely didn't treat himself as a ranged attacker. In sharp contrast was Old John, who always wanted to stroll to the edge of the battlefield, and Sophie, who held her Crossbow and echoed Old John on the left and right. You couldn't say their response was bad; it wasn't wrong. Actually, it was very good.

You can't expect two ranged attackers to launch a charge, right?

Right.

But Li Wei had to launch a charge, because only if he fought desperately would Clyde and Leon, these two very strong warriors, fight to move forward to avoid an NG and double punishment. They couldn't behave worse than their Lord.

This was an open scheme, with no solution!

The Two-Star Composite Bow remained on Li Wei's back. What he held in his hand at this moment was that ordinary Iron Spear; the Two-Star Bloodthirsty Spear was unusable, whether for throwing or melee piercing.

But even holding an ordinary Iron Spear, his indomitable momentum still burned fiercely. It wasn't that he was a born warrior, but simply because he had experienced it. He had fought that Two-Star Blood Wolf and the black-robed Witch, so he deeply knew that retreating was meaningless; he had to withstand it!

"Awooo!"

The two mutated Blood Wolves both stared dead at Li Wei, pouncing from the left and right. They still remembered Li Wei; this was a case of enemies meeting with extremely bloodshot eyes!

But Li Wei was fearless and even quickened his pace, forcing Clyde and Leon to have to speed up as well. Especially the former, holding his small round buckler, he had to withstand one Blood Wolf to not trigger an NG. Otherwise, if both wolves pounced on Li Wei simultaneously, it would be hard not to NG!

Conversely, Leon fell slightly behind; what kind of tactic could this be?

In an instant, Clyde was the first to use his small round buckler to block the pounce of the Blood Wolf on the left, while Li Wei on the right fearlessly collided with the other Blood Wolf.

Neither side dodged!

Li Wei's Iron Spear successfully pierced into the Blood Wolf's chest and abdomen, and the Blood Wolf also successfully pinned Li Wei to the ground, opening its mouth to bite down at his throat!

But Li Wei skillfully let go, protecting his throat with his left arm. Before the Snow Wolf could bite through his Leather Armor, his right hand had drawn the Bone Skinner Dagger with lightning speed, precisely piercing the Blood Wolf's heart with a single strike.

There was no other way, path dependence!

As the ancients said, it's nothing but familiarity!

At the same time, Sophie and Old John in the rear both fired!

Sophie shot at the Blood Wolf confronting Clyde. The Crossbow Bolt hit the Blood Wolf's hind leg. A hit on the first shot; worthy of congratulations...

Old John aimed at the chanting black-robed Witch; he wanted to hold back for a big one.

With his precision as a Three-Star Hunter, this naturally wasn't a problem. But the dim night made him ignore the sky, and he also ignored Li Wei's previous warning. After all, a Witch casting a spell looked very easy to bully.

But just at the moment he was about to draw his bow and shoot, a giant raven descended from the sky. With one claw, it grabbed onto his left eyeball and gouged it right out.

Precise, stable, and ruthless!

Old John hurriedly let go, and who knows where that arrow flew. He began to scream miserably.

At the same time, the black-robed Witch on the hill suddenly stopped chanting. That's right, her chanting was only to control the giant raven to perform a precise snipe, which was also a snipe accurate to the centimeter.

Timing, speed, and angle were all indispensable!

In the next moment, this black-robed Witch suddenly, swiftly pulled out a sphere that looked like a crystal ball and threw it towards Clyde, who was struggling against the Blood Wolf.

There was no other way; the situation on the field at this moment was just so clear and obvious.

Li Wei had already been pinned down by the Blood Wolf, seemingly at the end of his lifespan.

She hadn't witnessed this scene last time. Back then, because the giant raven was shot to death by Li Wei, she almost broke down.

So instead, Clyde, who was fighting back and forth with the Snow Wolf, was the stronger one. And Clyde was indeed very strong; while able to use the small round buckler to withstand the Snow Wolf's pouncing, he could also find the time to complete several lightning-fast longsword thrusts. These combat skills were stronger than average.

When the crystal ball was thrown down, the black-robed Witch resumed chanting, and that crystal ball seemed to gain some sort of guidance, heading straight for Clyde.

However, Clyde was also formidable. In this instant, he still rapidly pulled back his shield to block this eerie crystal ball...

"Boom!"

Ice and snow erupted, and cold energy raged. Who would have known that such terrifying cold energy was hidden within this crystal ball, as if a snow mountain had been transported over.

Clyde wasn't frozen into an ice sculpture, nor did he freeze to death.

But his entire person was directly covered in a layer of frost, as if he had been stripped naked and thrown into an ice hole in the dead of winter.

In an instant, he was freezing and shivering, unable to even hold his small round buckler steady. His teeth chattered, and he completely lost his combat ability.

Seeing that he was about to have his head bitten off by that wounded Blood Wolf, right at this moment, that Blood Wolf's head actually shot up into the sky, severed in two! Tainted blood sprayed all over Clyde's head, face, and body...

It was Leon. He finally seized the opportunity in the battle. Moreover, he was very sly; he acted as though he was very loyal and wanted to rescue Li Wei, but put Clyde in the middle.

At the same time, he also hid behind the Snow Wolf and Clyde, cleverly blocking the black-robed Witch's line of sight.

That was why he could suddenly emerge at this moment, seizing the opportunity to cleave off the Two-Star ferocious beast's head with a single slash.

At this moment, the color finally drained from the beautiful face of the black-robed Witch on the hill!

Sure enough,

Gambling dog, gambling dog, gamble to the end, and you have nothing!

This is the law of the gambling dog!

"Die!"

Leon's sword achieved a merit, and he immediately launched a charge towards the Witch on the hill. How could he miss such a great opportunity to capture and kill the opposing leader? After all, this was all massive Contribution! The chance to overtake that damn George was today!

As a result, in the next second, the black-robed Witch threw out another crystal ball. With her chanting, it accurately locked onto Leon, who was attempting to flee. It was useless; unless you could preemptively dodge and maniacally accelerate, this crystal ball was very hard to evade.

"Boom!"

Leon was also frozen into a quail.

Right at this moment, Sophie in the rear thought her chance had come. Drawing two daggers, she chased over at top speed without making a sound. As a Professional Warrior whose Agility attribute had already reached Level 1 Awakening, and a Senior Player who had returned alive from the Chaotic Killing Battlefield, she certainly had the power to fight. In the blink of an eye, like an afterimage, she bypassed the quail-frozen Leon, about to snatch her highlight moment.

Yes, right now this black-robed Witch had lost her mounts, and the chanting and control for two consecutive crystal balls seemed to have made her a bit exhausted. Meanwhile I, the gambling dog Sophie, have full Stamina and am at peak condition!

Bitch, eat my blade!

As a result, right at this moment, the black-robed Witch suddenly smiled faintly. Reaching into her black robes, she drew out a straight, narrow rapier! Stepping forward, she executed an almost perfect lunge thrust, forcing the color from Sophie's face and almost throwing her footwork into utter chaos.

But it was useless. The black-robed Witch's swordplay was simply at its peak. Between advancing and retreating, she showed the demeanor of a master!

In two or three moves, she easily pierced Sophie's right wrist, followed by a sword thrust piercing her throat!

Poor Sophie, in the prime of her youth, high-spirited and vigorous, falling right at her highlight moment of having great ambitions but scarce talent.

Dying with her eyes wide open!

"Ahhhh!"

Clyde roared wildly. Meanwhile, Li Wei also threw off the mutated Blood Wolf. Even though this beast was stabbed in the heart, it still maintained a deadlock with boundless strength for quite a while. As a result, in just this short time, Sophie was directly killed in action!

He saw with his own eyes that a blue speck of light on Sophie's body was sucked away by the black-robed Witch; it was one of Sophie's Profession Cards!

Then, she flashed a sweet smile at Li Wei and quickly left, not eager to continue the fight at all!

However, the robbers below were still pursuing them. At this time, Li Wei and the others also didn't dare to linger in battle. They dragged along the still-howling Old John, and hauled Leon—who was currently chanting, 'Dororo, the cold wind is freezing me to death, I'll build a nest tomorrow,' like a freezing quail!

With the recovered Clyde bringing up the rear, the group of four couldn't even bother about Sophie's corpse. Actually, they didn't need to, because a cloud of gray fog surged over and directly swept away all her weapons, equipment, and corpse.

After all, she wasn't truly dead, just suffered somewhat heavy losses!

However, as a family, the losses were also somewhat heavy.

And the only good news was that, up until now, even with their side suffering one dead and one injured, no information had appeared to reprimand Li Wei.

But no matter what, as the commander-in-chief, as the Head of Household, he was also responsible.

If one insisted on blowing it out of proportion.

The robbers down below were dividing their forces to intercept them. The giant raven in the sky was still fluttering its wings up high and frequently transmitting Li Wei's group's position. That black-robed Witch hadn't gone far. She was very difficult to deal with, and even more formidable than imagined.

Fortunately, the extreme frozen state created by that kind of crystal ball couldn't last long, and they could pretty much recover in less than thirty seconds.

Clyde and Leon recovered their strength one after another. Only Old John was missing an eyeball, nearing severe injury. After being dragged a distance by Li Wei, he suddenly said in a low voice, "George, the Plague was hidden in the giant raven's claws. I've contracted the second-stage Blood Plague; I won't survive this. I'm sorry, I cannot become a burden to you all. Please quickly break out of the encirclement; we'll meet again if fate allows!"

Having said that, before Li Wei could react, Old John actually decisively severed his own meridians (committed suicide)!

Fuck!

Li Wei, Clyde, and Leon were all inexplicably horrified, yet also felt it was very reasonable. Having lost one eye, Old John didn't have much combat power left, plus contracting the Blood Plague. This wasn't like the time with Clyde and Li Wei, where it was simply tainted blood getting into their eyes. He was severely injured, bleeding profusely, and the poison of the Blood Plague had long circulated throughout his entire body.

It is worth mentioning that Clyde was actually fine, because the bowl of herbs he drank before setting out had taken effect.

Watching Old John dissolve into a cloud of gray fog and disappear, only an Iron Spear, a Recurve Bow, two quivers, and a Refined Steel Dagger were left in his place.

Li Wei swiftly picked these up. Giving to his backpack what he could, hanging on it what he could. Anyway, you can never have enough weapons.
