The Demonic Antelope easily dodged Sharon's Shield Bash, and used its long horn to counterattack Marvin's attack.
The big guy with Haste barely dodged this sudden counterattack, but the other party also quickly took half a step back and instantly grasped the control of the distance.
Brand, who had been waiting for a long time, saw that the distance between the two sides had widened. He had taken the opportunity to prepare a Frost Arrow. With the enhancement effect of his staff, the Frost Arrow was about 10% faster than usual and accurately hit the head of the demonic antelope. The icicles with a blue luster immediately exploded when they touched the enemy, forming a thin fog. In fact, the fog was the fragments of the icicles that automatically disintegrated after hitting the target. It was just that they were so small that they looked like fog.
The effect of the Frost Arrow was much better than expected, but it also took up the power of sneak attacks. After all, the two Sharon brothers were genuine Intermediate Knights. In terms of melee skills, they were incomparable to George and his son. The mist produced by the Frost Arrow hit the target almost instantly took effect. A layer of white frost formed on the neck of the demonic antelope. Although it did not cause a wound, the extremely low temperature made the demonic antelope, who had almost no resistance to the cold, look much weaker.
That was all. If it was just Frost Arrows, he would not be able to defeat this powerful beast even if he exhausted all his mana.
Loren also struck at the right time. He also shot out a Frost Arrow, but the latter tore open the flesh on the enemy's neck. The exploding mist of ice crystals carried purple-black demonic antelope blood, causing Brand to lament the fate of his companions.
The demonic antelope, which had suffered some superficial injuries, seemed to be a little angry. Its pair of bull eyes stared at the smug Loren, and it raised its claws and pounced at Sharon without warning.
Another muffled sound rang out. Sharon didn't even need to look to know that the Kite Shield was about to be scrapped. He could clearly feel a few deep cracks on the surface of the shield. Damn it! The two attacks were in the same place. Even the Kite Shield could not withstand the enemy's attacks without being damaged.
However, the opponent was very cunning. Taking advantage of Sharon's weakened shield, he used his sharp horn to push forward. Seeing that it was impossible to dodge, the knight decided to risk the danger of being pierced through the chest by the long horn that was more than a foot long. He threw away the useless kite shield and dodged to the right. The long horn of the devil antelope brushed against the metal plate on his chest, making an ear-piercing sound.
He was almost scared half to death by his brother's actions and was about to swing his sword to save the other party, but he did not expect Sharon to be empty-handed.! It was a very delicate play, and even Magic Ring couldn't stop herself from taking half a step forward. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Marv shouted and jumped with both hands on the hilt of the sword. The monster was about to be beheaded, but it realized the danger after it took half a step. Unfortunately, it was too late to retreat or move to the right. The front half of the 40-pound sword struck the wound that Loren had just made.
The demonic antelope immediately collapsed with a world-shaking roar. The overjoyed people panted and looked at each other before laughing out loud.
However, Brand didn't dare to let his guard down. Logically speaking, the power of that terrifying greatsword should have been able to break through a tower shield under the full power of Marv's jump slash. Why was the head of the fallen demonic antelope completely unharmed, apart from a few splatters of blood from its wounds?!
Realizing that something was wrong, Brand felt even more uneasy. In a trance, he seemed to see the front claws of the antelope shake slightly, and a cold fear rose from his spine to the top of his head.
Brand shouted at the Sharon brothers," Retreat!!!”
The two brothers who were born in the army were no rookies. Their relaxed mood was immediately lifted by the mage's voice. Even the two knight followers who were walking towards their prey stopped in their tracks. Loren even took out an electric shock scroll and stared at the " dead " body.
After all, it was half a beat too late. The demonic antelope's body was glowing with a faint purple-red light, and its blood-red eyes made one's heart palpitate. As he stood up and charged forward, his sharp claws easily tore through the light armor covered with metal leaves like a knife cutting butter. Sharon grunted and staggered back two steps. The Impala rammed into Marvin, who was kicking him in desperation. It felt like she was hit by a battering ram. Marvin was sent flying by the powerful impact and fell heavily to the ground. She must have been injured.
Annoyed, Brand took out a scroll and activated the Hand of Magic without hesitation. Electric Charge and Lightning Claw struck at the cunning Demonic Antelope, and Rodin followed suit and used up all the scrolls in his hand.
The two knight followers also took the opportunity to shoot out the steel arrows in their hands. They could not be bothered with reloading, and hurriedly threw away their light crossbows, drew their swords, and ran towards their masters.
The magic attack of the demonic antelope was blocked by the storm-like magic attack. Sharon, who was not too seriously injured, rushed forward and grabbed his brother's legs to retreat desperately. The furious demonic antelope let out several deafening roars.
The two steel arrows pierced into the target's left and right sides by one-third of their depth and were no longer able to do anything. However, the effect of the magic was somewhat comforting. The long horn on the left side was cut off by a small part of the electric shock that was shot by either Brand or Loren. It looked a little funny.
One of the Frost Arrows that Loren activated from the scroll happened to pierce into the wound that had just been cut open by the greatsword. Even the monster's powerful body could not withstand the continuous attacks, and purple-black blood spurted out.
The demonic antelope had completely fallen into a state of madness. It charged at Brand in a frenzy, completely ignoring the two knight brothers in front of it. One of the two followers who had just rushed up had his shoulder pierced by the intact right horn, and the other was knocked back a few steps by the broken horn. It was unknown if he was dead or alive.
He just wanted to shout,"Every injustice has its perpetrator!"”Brand had no other choice. If he had known earlier, he would have summoned the Celestial Dog. Now, he was courting death.
Bracing himself, he threw out two Hand of Magic. The opponent was blocked by the two invisible force fields and staggered, but it didn't cause any damage. The demonic antelope, which was about to leap up, finally suffered the consequences of its carelessness. Rodin, who was waiting at the side, also used Hand of Magic to hit the side of the enemy. The arrows that had not penetrated deep into the enemy's body almost completely sank into its body.
Brand didn't dare to hesitate at all. He knew that if he didn't have any powerful methods today, he would probably die in heaven. Thus, taking advantage of Loren's attack, Brand successfully entered the sixth sense state at the critical moment of life and death.
Other than replacing the five senses and surpassing them to a certain extent, the greatest use of the mind was to calm the mind. This was especially important for a spellcaster. There were countless mages who had died due to their minds being severely disturbed by large-scale spells. Brand had only discovered this benefit in the recent days of battle.
The effect time of the power was still recovering. Usually, regardless of the level of the power, as long as it was used once, the next time it could be used would be at least ten days to half a month later. During the last time he entered the mountain with George and his son, he had already dedicated his only powerful virgin battle to the enemy in front of him. However, the demonic antelope, who had escaped when the opportunity arose, did not enjoy the feast completely.
The mage who was at the end of his rope felt that the other party was charging towards him again. Loren was still chanting his spell. As for Sharon, who had just dragged his brother away, he only had a broadsword in his hand. Although he had already turned around and chased after the demonic antelope, based on the speed and distance, the first to be torn apart would definitely be Brand.
Grade-6 spell, Teleportation. This random teleportation spell had no direction to speak of and could teleport the caster to any point within a radius of a hundred steps. Brand, who had almost been stabbed in the heart, unexpectedly discovered that the dizziness caused by the random teleportation was not very strong, and it was much easier than the painful practice in the past.
Having lost its target, the demonic antelope abandoned Brand, who was nearly a hundred steps away, and bared its sharp claws at Loren, who was closest to it.”He could only hurriedly release a Mana Ring.
The Halo of Magic, which only lasted for one breath, didn't seem to have much of an effect on the demonic antelope. Loren let out a strange cry as he grabbed his robe and fled. Fortunately, Brand had already prepared a gravity spell to suppress him. Even Loren was not spared from being pressed down on the ground and kissed Mother Earth fiercely.
Just as the magic effect was about to dissipate, Sharon, who had quietly approached, seized the opportunity to stab his broadsword into the neck of his opponent, who was already a bloody mess. The eyes of the demonic antelope, which had finally suffered a fatal injury, quickly became unfocused. In front of it was a shallow pit that had been dug out by its two sharp claws. After a while, the purplish-black blood stopped flowing out. Sharon, who was holding the sword hilt tightly and pressing down on the enemy, did not even have the strength to get up.
Loren, who was the only one alive, took out a copper whistle from one of his followers and blew it a few times. The horses of the knights at the foot of the mountain would follow the whistle to find their owners. The two townspeople who led the way were also useful in helping to transport the wounded. Marvin and the other follower were only knocked out by the violent shock and had a few broken ribs. Fortunately, their internal organs were not pierced. There were six of them when they came, and they were still alive.
Brand, who had recovered his five senses, looked at the horses and townspeople coming from afar. He finally felt how heavy the responsibility on his shoulders was.
