Sword and Magic and Taxi

　　 "Did you see what kind of creature it is?" Zhao Mai supported the shield, only the shadowy outline could be seen. Those creatures are very cunning and don't come out of the woods at all. Similarly, they did not leave, and from time to time they would throw a few stones or a few branches to declare their existence.

　　 Such harassment is annoying for the foursome. They must always pay attention to the movement in the woods and cannot relax for a moment. But if you say rush in and attack, no one dares to make this decision lightly because they don't know the enemy's situation. They can only hug the group and walk downstream along the river bank, hoping to find a more suitable terrain. It would be great if it could reach a certain human village.

　　 Zhao Mai still has some impression of the map on both sides of the Smokey River, knowing that this is basically a barren area. Over the past many years, the river has been slowly moving westward due to the continuous erosion of the ground, leaving a large number of old riverbeds destroyed. For a long time, such actions have created a weird scene of vitality on one side of the Smokey River and barrenness on the other. On the side near the farmer's forest, the river flows under the roots of the trees, while on the side of Zhao Mai, the old riverbed is barely growing.

　　 As for the Raven Plain further afield, there are only a few small villages, and they are all built around some sweet water wells, not on the banks of the Youyan River. A few people may need to keep walking until they reach the town of Wolf's Ear near Ash Lake to get help. This news will have a very bad effect on morale, so Zhao Mai didn't say anything.

　　 Anxious emotions began to appear in the hearts of several people unconsciously, but none of them showed it. The three exchange students in the Eagle Wings community are also among the best performers among the druid apprentices, and their psychological qualities are still excellent. At least until now, there has been no complaint or quarrel with each other.

　　 "I can't see clearly, maybe it's a group of kobolds." The person with the best eyes belongs to Lucius. He uses a bow and arrow to suppress it, which is one of the reasons why the opponent has not rushed forward. Zhao Mai analyzed that it is very likely that his first arrow hit the target, otherwise it would be difficult to explain the sudden timidity of the opponent.

"Kobolds can see things in the dark. If we drag it until dark, we will be in trouble." Zhao Mai looked at the sky: "It's noon now. These people have been with us for several hours and still don't want to give up. They are unlikely to give up when they are young. Now they have to decide whether to find a place to defend or..."

　　 "I still think of a way to cross the river and let the river water become our defensive barrier."

　　 "Is it necessary to escape for a few kobolds?" Lucius also thought that what Zhao Mai said was a good idea, but he just didn't want to admit it.

　　 "First take back the initiative on the battlefield." Zhao Mai said: "Even the wolves will move, surround and fight back."

　　 "But if you carry such a heavy load, crossing the river is also very dangerous. Although the current here is not very urgent, but the water is wide and the depth below is not known. You can't swim through." Afrah persuaded. But when she said this, she had agreed to the plan to cross the river.

"I have a bundle of rope in my backpack, but it's not enough." Zhao Mai had already taken command of the team without knowing it: "Let the owl catch and fly over, fly around the tree twice, and then let the gibbon Go over. Afrau, see if you can keep the monkey holding on to the rope, and the two ladies will go first. Lucius, don't you have any opinion on this?" Lucius shook his head.

　　 "I swim very well, do you want me to swim there first?" Ziyue said on offer. "I can hold my breath for five minutes, and ordinary fish can't swim me."

　　 "Then you are responsible for responding to emergencies, okay?" Zhao Mai arranged: "You are our safety guarantee."

"no problem!"

　　 They walked a few hundred meters more and came to a place where the river looked wider but the current was relatively gentle. Ziyue opened Zhao Mai's backpack, admiring "There are so many things," and she took out a bundle of ropes and threw them to the owl. Then she commanded the flying bird with gestures and whistle, let it fly over the river with a rope, found a tree, and circled the branch a few times, so that it could tie the rope tightly.

　　 Of course, I can’t expect this rope to be completely tied. Afrah then took the side of the river bank and let her gibbon crawl over. Although the rope was loose, it still held on. "Grab the rope!" The black long straight girl shouted so loudly for the first time.

　　 "I'll go there first, hehe!" Ziyue rushed into the river, and a fierce man plunged in. With the help of the rope, swim quickly. After going ashore, she hurriedly tied a knot to the rope and waved to Afra.

　　 The enemy in the woods is not a fool, and he rushed out immediately after seeing this scene. Lucius raised his hand and shot two arrows, one hit, knocking down one of the kobolds, rolling on the ground and wailing. However, there are still ten kobolds holding various weapons, screaming and rushing across the bush line.

　　 "Who knows the entanglement technique, cast one at a crowded place!" Zhao Mai still commanded calmly: "Afra, you go over soon!"

　　 Afraid took possession of a blade of grass from the ground and threw it out. Accompanied by the sound of her chanting spells ~www.NovelMTL.com~ a large number of vines were drilled from the deserted ground. Several kobolds who were too late to react suddenly ran into it, tripped over, or got tied up. It is a pity that the original vegetation here is too sparse, and the effects of Entanglement cannot be fully realized.

　　 Zhao Mai took the rope at this time and tied it to his waist three or two times. "Lucius, come to me and shoot, I will cover you!"

　　 The kobold was already throwing the javelin in his hand. Although none of them could hit yet, it also reduced Lucius’s shooting percentage. Someone can help him cover, Lucius couldn't ask for it. Standing behind Zhao Mai, many javelins are things that Zhao Mai needs to worry about with the shield.

　　 The cheetah has already rushed out, got into the crowd of dog heads, and disturbed the opponent with its sensitive pace. Kobolds are armed with weapons, whether they are spears or scimitars, they still pose a great threat to underage cheetahs. Lucius's shooting skills were not enough to support the animal companions in the melee, so he did not dare to give orders for a full attack.

　　A javelin flew, Zhao Mai looked at the right time, tilted the shield at an angle, and then slapped it outward. Fortunately, the dog head is not very manpower, and the javelin can be blocked without much effort. A kobold took advantage of this moment and threw the short sword in his hand, using it as a throwing weapon to kill Zhao Mai. How to defend against multi-directional offenses has already been said in the explanation of Ranger Carl. Even without the absolute defense of the spare tire shield, Zhao Mai can take care of it.

　　 After all, this wooden shield is much lighter than the spare tire.

　　 A bow and arrow shot past, and another kobold fell. But then, we are about to enter close combat. Zhao Mai is squatting, holding the Megalodon gun tightly, and is ready~www.NovelMTL.com~ Book friends are welcome to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all at~www.NovelMTL.com ~For mobile users, please go to read.
