Chapter 21 The Crisis That Comes
The huge rock roared, and the weak magician tried to build an ice wall before the huge rock came, but before the ice wall could be condensed, it was broken by the rolling huge rocks and ice chips flew.
Facing the huge rock that was more than ten times higher than himself, Andenuo did not retreat at all, his unfolded hands did not tremble at all, and everyone's lives were hanging on the line. When the huge rock and Andenuo's arms were connected, his heart was all raised to his throat.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh--" An Deno shouted loudly, and the rolling boulder was actually held in a forcibly and stopped rotating, but it did not stop completely. The powerful impact continued to translate backwards on the slope with the triangle composed of adventurers.
If the entire team fails, the circular rock will roll again, completely crushing everyone.
Yang Yu and Bai Jin stood in the last row. Yang Yu, who had no shield, tried hard forward with one hand, and the shield, released the interception backward with the illusory shield transformed with [Intercept] to relieve the obstacles. He did not forget to command Bai Jin, who was completely unable to use his power, to clear the obstacles behind him as much as possible with magic.
Joining together layer by layer, with the concerted efforts of everyone, the rock finally stopped.
No one breathed a sigh of relief, and Andno was even more so. He looked at the boulder in front of him, his vision was a little blurred, and he said with his only remaining consciousness:
"I will carry it here first. You can retreat to the side first, and I will let go."
No one objected, and one by one let go of his hands and stood in the woods far away from the boulders. Seeing that no one was left behind, Andenuo fell back weakly and lay down in front of the boulders.
Before leaving a few magicians, they left traces of magic on Andno. As soon as Andno fell, they paniced and used magic power to move Andno out of the dangerous area. Several priests immediately met up and called on the power of the holy light on their bodies to heal him.
No one expected that this rescue would have happened before it took place.
No one spoke, but each of them knew that this rescue might be in danger. Many people looked pale and gave in.
"It's enough. I encountered such dangers at the beginning. Who knows what dangers will be waiting for us in the future!"
The first discordant sound will sound, and the other sounds will be given inexplicable courage, and one by one will spring up like mushrooms after a rain to express their dissatisfaction.
"There is definitely something in this forest, and that's not something we can handle."
"Yes, the best countermeasure now is to go back and regroup and mobilize top combat power."
The sadness spreads through the team, and there are people who complain and dissatisfied and give up, and naturally there are people who have different opinions.
"I object! Without our rescue, the captured adventurers will definitely encounter unexpected results."
"I also object that they would use such boulders, which proved that they were not strong enough, and attempted to wipe out us with this trick. We should take advantage of their failures in the plan, and the rapids advanced, destroy them in one fell swoop, and rescue the captured adventurers."
"Who knows that they have no backup plan. Goblins will never make such a rock. If they were just on their own terms, they would only kill the team in vain. Besides, they are so strong that the adventurer who was captured might have long since..."
"Are you planning to die and not save me?"
"I didn't say that I would not save you, but that we should do our best!"
A conflict broke out in the adventure group. Yang Yu rubbed his shoulders and did not intend to participate. He calmly told his guess without reservation.
"I think you should stop arguing. It seems that even if you really want to retreat now, you can't retreat."
"What did you say?"
The two quarrels looked at Yang Yu at the same time. Yang Yu casually called an free priest to treat him, and then said:
"It's not so much that the opponent has been prepared for us to come to rescue, but rather that they are catching those people to lure us to come to rescue."
"Why are you so sure!"
Yang Yu did not answer their questions, but looked at the tree canopy, "Perhaps, so far, our every move has been taken into their eyes. As the saying goes, there will be a final blow if we survive a disaster. Perhaps there are already groups of paired goblins that have been ambushed on our way back, and there are also groups of goblins surrounding us. Escape in a panic will only fall into their trap. The best way now is to face the enemy on the spot and wait for reinforcements."
Reinforcements? Is there really that kind of thing?
Many people showed confusion.
"Didn't you listen to Andeno's speech carefully in the morning? The reason we came here is because the proposal to apply for the Senior Adventurer Action was delayed."
"But...when will you wait?"
"It should...it should...it can't wait for a long time." Andeno's voice was extremely weak not far away, and the brief treatment brought back his consciousness. "I asked the tutor Tra to keep monitoring our actions. If such a thing happens, the union will definitely speed up the approval and recall high-level adventurers."
"As such a big thing happened, even if the surveillance was blocked, those high-level adventurers would come over to confirm the situation around the boulder." Yang Yu continued on behalf of Andno, "Maybe they decided to turn this place into a second trap to deal with those high-level adventurers..."
Before Yang Yu could finish his words, several scouts who jumped onto the tree again interrupted him.
"A lot of tree canopy jumped, and it seemed that something was coming."
A horn sounded, and everyone was shocked and confused, and a hint of uneasiness rose in their hearts. The scout continued to observe, and several scouts with sharp eyes keenly noticed the green skin that was almost integrated with the canopy.
"It's a goblin! A large number of goblins were packaged towards us! There were at least five hundred, and they were packaged from all directions."
When everyone heard the news, they were so panicked that they were at a loss. This was five times the number of the entire adventure group. Now the strongest combat power of the entire adventure group and several former adventurers were in extreme fatigue. When they were treated by the priests, they were unable to resist so many goblins.
"Am I right?" Yang Yu smiled indifferently, "This is just driving our team. Perhaps not strong. Now they believe that we are exhausted and will not dare to fight and will only turn around and run away. But what I want to say is that if we escape, we will die. If we fight together and wait for Andynor to recover, maybe we still have a chance of life. How about it, everyone, should we fight or escape?"
You have said this, how could you escape?
The two factions who had just quarreled immediately shook hands and made peace, and they all picked up their weapons.
"Good look!"
After scanning everyone's attributes, Yang Yu stood in front of the team. Other soldiers, swordsmen, and boxers also imitated him to form a tough front row, surrounding the tired wounded, magicians and priests gathered in the rear, adjusting their positions according to the formation to facilitate healing and gathering fire. The thieves waited for an opportunity in the tree and were ready to cut in at any time.
People who have just met less than a day have been united together in the face of the threat of life and formed a whole.
