Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job properly

After killing several half-murlocs at the entrance, Wayne did not rush into the cave, but waited outside the cave for a few minutes.

After confirming that there were no more half-murlocs rushing out to support, I felt slightly relieved.

This was also because his sword speed was so fast that the six half-murlocs were killed before they had time to call for support or even make much of a reaction.

Otherwise, he would most likely have to face the siege of a dozen or even dozens of half-murlocs.

Wayne wiped off the blood on his silver sword and went to the lake to wash away the smelly blood of the half-murlocs on his body before slowing down and entering the cave.

Sneaking all the way, his iron boots stepped on the ground, making a slight sound, which was a bit harsh in the cave.

It's a pity that he has never learned real stealth skills, and he is not a professional assassin. Even if he is aware of his own voice, he cannot come up with a better way.

The only thing you can do to avoid alerting the half-fishmen in the cave is to slow down and use your keen hearing to detect the enemy's movements in advance.

The cave is very humid. The walls and roof are covered with all kinds of moss, and there is little light. Maybe because it is close to the lake, there are even traces of water on the ground.

Wayne cautiously advanced for dozens of meters, and before he found any trace of other fishermen, he suddenly discovered that the water on the ground had reached his ankles, and not far away was a downhill slope submerged by the lake. .

Looking at the depth of the lake, if you continue to move forward, you will most likely enter the lake directly.

Seeing this situation, Wayne did not choose to retreat, but gritted his teeth and held the Banshee Talisman given to him by Druid Elder Cainster in his hand. A burst of chaotic magic was injected into it, activating the Talisman.

As a strange magic power was released from the amulet, a transparent magic shield appeared on the surface of his body, about six or seven centimeters away from the body surface, squeezing out all the lake water that was close to his body.

Only breathable air is left to circulate within the shield.

Wayne took a breath of the air in the shield, and there was no problem. This was the second time he used the Man-Faced Bird Talisman.

When I used it for the first time, I just tested its function in the river water and did not study it in depth. However, I thought that a generous elder like Keynster would not murder his savior.

With some anxiety, Wayne put the silver sword back into the scabbard on his waist, took off his chainmail and iron boots, and stored them in his storage bag, leaving only a layer of leather armor.

Then he took out the crossbow he won from O. Henry, the meteorite dagger, and a dozen crossbow arrows from the storage bag.

Underwater combat is not as good as on land. Due to the resistance of the water flow, the flexibility of many movements is greatly reduced. If you go down wearing iron armor, even with the physical strength of a demon hunter, you will probably only sink to the bottom. And a long sword like a silver sword will probably sink to the bottom. Weapons will also be severely weakened and will not be as handy as daggers, crossbows and the like.

After making all preparations, Wayne no longer hesitated, took a deep breath, and got into the cold lake water.

The light underwater was still dim, and the depth was about ten meters, but under the influence of the cat's eye potion, the surrounding environment could still be clearly reflected in his eyes.

Aquatic plants, rocks, various underwater creatures and fish swimming around form a strange and bizarre scenery.

Wayne swam deeper into the cave while observing the enemy's movements attentively. Unexpectedly, he found no traces of enemy activity, but found the half-murlocs sleeping under the water.

There are a lot of them, there are probably about ten of them.

They rested casually on the rocks under the water, with their bellies raised or their backs exposed. They probably didn't believe that an enemy could enter the water here to attack them. From time to time, they spit out one or two bubbles from their mouths, appearing completely innocent. Be on guard.

After thinking for a few seconds, Wayne did not launch a surprise attack, but tried to avoid them and continue moving forward.

Fighting these monsters underwater is obviously not a good choice.

At this time, the benefits of the Man-Faced Bird Talisman are revealed. This talisman not only provides the ability to breathe underwater, but also enhances the holder's swimming speed.

Wayne only maintained a small swimming posture and was able to move his body underwater. After a while of careful operation, he finally swam over the heads of the half-murlocs safely.

Seven or eight minutes later, after passing through an underwater area that was hundreds of meters long, as the water level continued to drop, a strange bright light appeared in front of Wayne.

He carefully swam out of the water and found a more spacious cave space dozens of meters away.

The cave was quite flat, with a torch hung every few dozen meters on the wall. Some half-murloc guards leaned against the wall and stood guard by the torch, whether they were awake or asleep.

In the center of the cave, there is an altar dozens of centimeters above the ground. The corpses of some underwater creatures were piled randomly on the altar. Judging from the wounds on their bodies, their blood should have been drained.

Wayne frowned upon seeing this and did not act rashly. Instead, he found a hidden position, climbed onto the ground again, and tried to stay as quiet as possible before putting on the Wolf School armor again.

After putting it on, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief. To deal with these half-murlocs with crude weapons, a piece of chain armor with good defense can basically achieve the level of dimensionality reduction. Those bone spears, wooden sticks or rusty It is difficult for weapons such as iron tools to break through the defense of metal chain armor.

Pulling out the silver sword again, Wayne carefully observed the environment in the cave, and then walked carefully against the wall without making much noise.

The purpose of entering here this time is mainly to save Lala's brother, the little earth spirit Fitz. If there can be no fighting, he doesn't want to cause trouble.

The cave is quite large, but the number of half-murloc guards is relatively sparse. Under the cover of the dark environment, Wayne relied on his keen observation skills to successfully bypass the observation range of many guards and quietly touched the cave altar. rear.

There is a smaller cave behind the altar, with six strong half-murloc guards guarding the exit. Not only do they hold iron weapons in their hands, but they are also equipped with some simple metal armor, which is obviously They are the elite among the half-murlocs.

In the center of the cave, eight huge braziers containing unknown grease were arranged in a circle and burning.

And in the center surrounded by these fire pots, there was a horrifying scene that made Wayne take a breath.

I saw a circular pool about four or five meters wide, filled with black and red smelly blood, and in this blood, some ugly-looking, tentacle-like creatures like octopuses were swimming in it. move.

In addition, there were still six wooden pillars standing in the center of the blood pool, and six humanoid creatures were tied to the pillars with hemp ropes.

These humanoid creatures were naked and tied to pillars unable to move. Octopus monsters the size of washbasins climbed onto their bodies, and then like facehuggers, wrapped their heads with tentacles and squirmed slowly, I don't know what evil ritual is going on, it seems very scary.

Judging from their exposed skin and figures, these six people included dwarves, elves, and humans. One of them had purple skin and a colorful conch hanging around his neck, which immediately caught Wayne's attention.

Don't think about it, this is probably Lala's brother, the little earth spirit Fitz.

However, looking at his current state, he seemed to have no idea whether he was alive or dead, and had been tampered with by those tentacle monsters.

It is obviously difficult to rescue him in full view of the public.

Looking at the appearance of those tentacle monsters, Wayne guessed that they must be related to the evil god Dagan.
