Broad World

Nalia crawled out from the hole and shook the dirt off her body. "Aha, it's finally in. We should find Dyerson first, if he's still alive."

"Who is Daleson? Why do we have to find him first?" Imon asked as he wiped the ashes from his nose.

"He is the steward here, and he knows everything about the plants and trees in the castle. We need to understand the situation here first, and then formulate corresponding strategies." Nalia came to the door of the wine cellar and tried to pry open the lock with a wire. However, her lockpicking ability doesn't seem to be very good, and she didn't respond after fiddled with it for a long time.

In the end, Aimeng couldn't stand it any longer, so he walked over and inserted the master key he made himself, and the door opened with a "click". She looked at Nalia and said earnestly, "Let me do this kind of work in the future. Your tools and techniques are really amateurish."

Hearing the girl's words, Nalia's face turned red and then pale, and she didn't know how to reply. Although I knew that Aimeng didn't do it on purpose, it hurt my self-esteem too much. You must know that in order to be able to leave the castle quietly without being noticed, she deliberately studied with a senior thief for two full years.

Henry felt the awkwardness of the atmosphere, and immediately stood up and said to everyone: "Since the door has been opened, let's quickly clean up the monsters on this floor, and see if there are any survivors by the way. We must move quickly and kill all the monsters before they notice them. Especially the snake mage, it will be very troublesome once they gather together."

As soon as the words fell, there was a heart-piercing scream from the other side of the wall, which shocked everyone. Nalia's blushing face suddenly turned white. Then he ran towards the inside fiercely. The others followed closely behind. I'm afraid that something will happen to her. After all, this noble daughter has no actual combat experience. And the professional level is also pitifully low.

After passing through two rooms in a row, everyone finally saw the bloody scene in the third room. I saw a mountain troll twice the size of other subspecies, eating a human thigh. Not far from it is a corpse, which should be a servant in the castle from the perspective of clothing.

"Ouch!..." Nalia, who had never really seen killing before, couldn't help but vomited out.

The mountain troll heard the sound and turned around quickly. When he found a group of humans, he laughed with his big mouth full of flesh and blood. "Hahahaha! Fresh meat! A lot of fresh meat! Kill! Eat! Eat! Eat!"

Henry winked at Xina with a livid face, and then drew out the two weapons from his waist. He first avoided the thigh thrown by the troll, followed by a somersault and chopped the enemy's arm with an "acid knife". This magical weapon tempered with the blood of the black dragon easily cut through flesh and blood. Even the bones couldn't get in the way.

Not to be outdone, the dragon girl directly raised her two-handed sword and rushed up from the side, slashing horizontally. As soon as the cold light flashed, one leg of the troll flew out, and blood gushed out violently. It can be seen that she is quite angry at the monster eating people in her mind, and she is merciless when she strikes.

"Ahhh!!!" The mountain troll screamed and lost his balance, falling heavily to the ground. The acid and fire attached to the magic weapon not only caused great damage, but also prevented the wound from regenerating.

Taking advantage of the opponent's lack of resistance, Hina raised her weapon and strode forward, relying on the huge strength of the half-dragon to cut him in half. If it is an ordinary troll, even if it is not dead, it will be half disabled. But mountain trolls are different. They are far beyond the size of the same kind and have super regeneration ability, and half of their bodies split into two smaller trolls in just a few seconds.

"Damn it. I hate these tenacious monsters the most." Henry muttered as he swung his weapon and pierced the enemy's heart from behind. He directly crushed the troll's heart with the sharpness of "Darkon's Seth Knife", and then killed it completely with "Acid Knife".

At the same time, the battle between Xi Na and another troll was coming to an end. She took advantage of her strength and swung her two-handed sword to open and close. In the blink of an eye, she opened several wounds on the enemy. The flame power emanating from the sword prevented the regenerative ability from taking effect, and the troll was hacked to pieces after a few minutes.

As soon as the battle was over, the dragon girl looked at Henry with strange eyes. "I really didn't expect that your melee combat ability is quite good. You just need to train a little bit more, and you will definitely become an excellent sword master."

"Thank you for the compliment, but I don't intend to become a sword master. Learning martial arts is just to be less passive when dealing with those magic-immune enemies. Most of the time, I still prefer to use magic and divine arts." Henry flicked the blood on the weapon and inserted it back into the sheath.

Juggernaut and mage is also a very powerful combination, it can be said that the two perfectly make up for each other's shortcomings. Protective magic can make the Juggernaut who cannot wear armor invulnerable, and at the same time, the excellent martial arts also allows the originally fragile mage to have super physical destructive power. Especially after the mage profession has mastered the ninth level of magic, a "time stop" kung fu is enough for the sword master to dismember a dragon.

Henry doesn't plan to work part-time before he is promoted to Legend, otherwise the experience points will be shared too much. However, he knew that Hina was practicing martial arts recently, hoping to transform her warrior profession into a sword master. But it is very difficult without the guidance of a teacher. You must know that the Juggernaut has to go through a lot of special training in order to achieve the state where the weapon becomes a part of the body. Their moves are fast and hateful, which is not comparable to that of ordinary fighters. Especially the profession-specific skill "Qi Lifting Slash", which rapidly and continuously attacks the enemy's vital parts in one breath, once it is cut, it is almost certain to die.

"That's such a pity. There are too few mages like you who have a high level of spellcasting and excellent physical fitness. Once you become a sword master, you will definitely be very powerful." After finishing speaking, Hina showed a regretful expression on her face. Her psychological magic is somewhat unreliable, but the weapon in her hand is more reassuring.

Henry smiled and shook his head and said nothing. He knew that the other party was from the mountains on the Spine of the World, where most people discriminated against magic. If she hadn't inherited the magic talent of the red dragon herself, Xi Na would not have wasted a little effort on the mage profession. This can be seen from the fact that she only practiced martial arts and never practiced spellcasting. She herself didn't take spellcasting ability seriously at all.

In order to prevent the rebirth of the ground troll's minced meat, Henry cast a "burning hand" to burn all the meat and corpses. You must know that such a story has been circulated among adventurers. A mighty adventurer ate a piece of the troll's flesh in a show of courage. But after a few hours his stomach began to throb, and a bloody little troll crawled out of it. Although the veracity of the story needs to be considered, the troll's ability to regenerate is indeed terrifying.

Nalia stared at the blazing flames with a numb expression, not even knowing to hide from the sparks flying towards her face. The scene in front of her made her fully realize that fighting monsters is not as beautiful as the bard said. The bloody reality severely pierced the last trace of fantasy in her mind, and she was full of confusion about the future.

Henry sighed slightly, and patted Nalia on the shoulder comfortingly as he passed by. He knew that this might be cruel to a noble girl who had just grown up, but it was better than her reckless death in the future. After all, this world is full of all kinds of dangers. If you can't adjust your mentality, even a happy death is a luxury.

The well-educated Nalia obviously knew this too, quickly wiped away the tears on her face, and followed closely behind the team. She has secretly made up her mind that she must play its due role when encountering monsters again. At least he can't just hide and vomit non-stop like just now.

Seeing the gradually firm eyes, Henry nodded secretly. As expected of the elite class of Amn, they have righted their position so quickly. You must know that this level is the saddest for those who come out for an adventure once. Once a psychological shadow is left, I am afraid that the adventure career can only end early.

Everyone pried open the door leading to the room on the west side, and suddenly heard a "ding dong" sound from inside the room. With the dim vision obtained from the awakening of blood, Shandier saw the shivering person hiding in the corner. When she raised her hand, it was a light spell, and the whole room was instantly illuminated.

"Delson?! Is that you? Thank God, you are still alive." Nalia hurried over to help the man.

The man named Delson was shaking all over, and his eyes were full of fear. He asked in a trembling voice: "Miss Nalia! Is it really you?! I didn't realize it until now. Everything happened so suddenly. These monsters suddenly emerged from the ground. Most of the servants were killed on the spot, and some were taken into the dungeon. The reason I survived is because they need a person to feed the monsters who are digging holes in the cellar."

"Calm down! You must know a lot of news, tell me how father is doing now?" Nalia asked eagerly.

Delson swallowed subconsciously. "Sir D'Anis was still alive this morning, but he was taken into the fortress by the leader of the trolls. It seems that he was... taken into the cellar."

"Damn! They must want to torture father. In that ancient dungeon, there are many instruments of torture left behind."

Seeing Nalia's ferocious expression, Delson mustered up the courage to continue, "Miss, as far as I know, the troll leader seems to be looking for a magic shackle."

"The flail? I've never seen it used, and Father never explained why. If the enemy takes this thing seriously, I think we should collect it and reforge it."
