Chapter 129 The Alliance Under the Lion
The arrows, like writhing snakes, whistled towards Gebu's face!
Gebu instantly put his hand into his dimensional bag, without even taking it out, and began chanting a shield spell!
The scroll vanished in Geb's hands, and a blue barrier formed around the goblin. The arrow was deflected two centimeters from his eyeballs—half a Deerman's bow had a considerable weight, and the arrow shattered into several pieces under its own kinetic energy, flying into the air!
As the half-deer man shot his arrow, a yellow shadow darted out from beneath him and charged toward Gebu—it was that weasel! That wretched creature, she's everywhere!
Geb remembered the terrible state Dulin was in after being attacked by this woman; a chunk of flesh was ripped off his thigh. He couldn't possibly underestimate this guy's claws!
The goblin immediately cast a cloud spell! Then, while moving, he used a minor illusion to create the sound of footsteps in the opposite direction. He heard the weasel leap into the air, crashing into the rock wall and missing its target!
"Hehe!!"
Gebu fired a flaming arrow toward the direction of the sound! Then, without lingering in the fight, he quickly moved to a new position. Just half a second after he left, an arrow bounced off the ground where he had just been standing!
Ding!
This half-deer man can identify objects by their sounds!
Gebu had a bad feeling. He needed to chant incantations to use his magic, and chanting incantations would reveal his location.
We can't afford to delay any longer; the swordswoman is in critical condition! We must end this battle as soon as possible!
Gebu didn't have time to think about why the beastmen were hiding here; that wasn't important now. He maneuvered through the clouds, constantly creating sounds with illusions to attract arrows and weasels.
As the goblin ran, it smelled a dog stench. At the edge of the cloud spell, a shadowy figure appeared and disappeared, rushing into the range of the cloud spell.
Another one! Troublesome!
Gebu's mind raced: This is an opportunity; the more people there are, the more chaotic things will become!
He estimated the positions of the dog and the weasel, and used a secondary phantom to create his own voice between them.
"A super invincible fireball!"
The phantom voice was pretending to chant magic. Anyone with a brain knows that magic spells aren't that straightforward—but in a crucial moment, who has time to react!
A wolf and a dog pounced towards the sound, shadowy figures moving about. Bang! A muffled thud, flesh colliding, claws and teeth clashing!
It's now!
Gebu stepped forward, stretched out his palm, and the scroll glowed in his arms. He deliberately positioned himself at an angle so that the two beastmen would block the half-deer man's line of sight.
"Incaendium Manum!!!"
Flames erupted from the goblin's hand! The yellow shadow reacted swiftly, leaping away the instant it was struck by the flames. But the dog wasn't so lucky; the burning hand instantly charred its flesh. The flames clung to the beastman's skin, seeping into its body and using its fat as fuel!
"Ugh!! Aww!!!"
Gebu sensed that the dog-man had lost its ability to resist and was rolling on the ground howling in pain. He immediately turned his palm, wanting to use the remaining energy of his Burning Hand to grab the weasel. But the creature was very cunning and had distanced itself, disappearing without a trace.
He couldn't expose himself any longer! Gebu immediately canceled the spell, crouched down, rolled, and hid in the clouds without making a sound.
Instantly, the room fell silent. The half-deer, the weasel, and Gebu all remained silent, except for the dog-man's feeble breath—after a dozen seconds, he exhaled his last breath.
silence.
Geb tried to use the same trick again, releasing a minor phantom to lure the beastmen, but the two guys weren't fooled.
There was no reaction at all.
A moment later, he heard a heavy thud from beyond the clouds. The half-deer man had descended, damn it. Geb thought. This guy was huge; even the Burning Hand might not be able to burn him to death—I don't want to fight him hand-to-hand.
Although Soton landed, he didn't enter the range of the Cloud Mist spell. Time ticked by, and Gebu was extremely anxious.
This weasel—it hasn't come looking for me. What's it planning to do in this fog?
Suddenly, something occurred to Gebu. A plan quickly took shape in his mind.
silence.
"Hmm—Gebu—"
The swordswoman's weak voice echoed through the clouds.
"Don't speak!" the goblin quickly replied!
Whoosh! An arrow shot towards the direction of Gebu's voice in an instant. At the same time, the sound of light footsteps echoed from within the cloud of mist, advancing towards the direction of the swordswoman!
The weasel's repulsive, treacherous voice echoed through the fog: "Little goblin—I've found that woman, hehehe. If you don't want her to die, break the spell and come out to see us."
"Okay—don't get excited—"
As the clouds and mist slowly dissipated, the figures of several people emerged from the fog.
Gebu stood at the edge of the room, his face pale, watching the weasel nervously. The weasel stood beside the woman with the knife, bent down, and pressed its paw against the back of her head.
The half-deer man stood at the far end of the room and drew his bow.
"No, don't get agitated, we can talk," Gebu said nervously. "Gold, don't you want gold? If you kill her, there will be no gold."
"The time for negotiation is over, goblin."
Thorton wrinkled his nose and released the bowstring!
Boom!
Whoosh!
The moment the arrow was shot at Gebu, the weasel relaxed its guard, and a dark shadow suddenly pounced out from behind her!
The arrow pierced through the silent phantom, missing its target! At the same time, the goblin's true form, riding on the weasel's back—she was petite and leaning forward—was stabbed in the back by Gebu with a bone dagger! She was forced to the ground!
The two rolled on the ground. Gebu was unharmed and slightly more agile than her. He pinned her to the ground, gathered fire in his hand, and thrust it straight at the weasel's face!
"Don't you dare move, you son of a bitch Gnubiye!!!"
Gebu roared angrily! The weasel, seeing the burning hand preparing to strike, dared not utter a word, its eyes filled with fear!
Gebu pressed his hand against the woman's face, then looked up at Soton: "Your men are all dead, what kind of leader are you! Put down your bow!!"
Thorton shifted his gaze from the silent phantom back to the goblin's face. He quickly assessed the situation, pondered for a moment, and gently lowered the arrow nocked on his bow.
"You'll burn her, and you and that woman will both die by my arrows. I've seen your magic; it's all mediocre. You're no match for me."
This person has seen advanced magic. Geb thought, "He can tell I only know first-level spells; this person must be extraordinary."
"You may be right, but if we fight to the death right now, I'm afraid no one will escape the clutches of that manticore outside."
Hearing Geb mention the manticore, the half-deer wrinkled his nose in a puff of smoke. "Hey, you've hit a nerve," Geb thought.
At this point, he realized that these people weren't lying in ambush on him, but rather hiding from the scorpion lion. They had encountered something similar to him, driven into the canyon by the scorpion lion, and had no choice but to hide in this place.
The weasel suddenly struggled, and Gebu shoved a paw into her mouth: "Move again?! I'll roast your brain!"
The female beastman remained motionless. The half-deer man said in a low voice, "So, you mean..."
"Solton, there's only one way if we want to get out of here alive."
"Let's join forces and take down the manticore!"
Gebu's eyes were filled with determination as he stared intently into the deer-man's beastly eyes and spoke slowly and deliberately.
