Logically speaking, if a small-scale encirclement and suppression of defected elves, there is no need for war troops like the crypt scorpion. Why did Kirkna bring it out?

This starts with Kirkna's status in the family. This young and beautiful priest Drow is the heir to the fifth family in Obalan's city. However, because she is still relatively young, she has not received the attention of the Spider-God Queen. Without the favor of the God Queen, there would be no spider-turned elves to help.

Of course, the Fifth Family itself also raised a lot of private soldiers, but these private soldiers could not give Kirkna any help during this encirclement and suppression, and she could only rely on her own lizardman followers.

The reason is very simple. The Spider God Queen issued an oracle, using this pursuit of defected elves as a trial for his priests. Each participating priest can only rely on his own strength and can have followers, but not the help of family private soldiers and city guards.

The families with the lower ranking often send high-ranking priests of the family, or even the clan's mistress. The families with the higher ranking will hand over the tasks to the next generation of heirs. The high-ranking priests often have more followers and can summon more spider-turned elves, while the young priests are relatively weak.

However, the Drow Elves are insidious and cunning, and they have various ways to bypass the rules. This crypted scorpion is the cheating method of Kirkna and the Fifth Family. Before she set off, the Fifth Family delivered the scorpion to her as an adult gift, which was a huge investment cost.

If Kirkna fails the trial and fails to capture any defected elves, she will undoubtedly be doomed. There is no second chance for the world of Drow Elves. This is also the main reason why Kirkna and Wendini still choose to take risks even though they know that they are only half a day away from the Dwarf's surface camp.

After the scorpion came up from the ground, it immediately launched an attack on the three apostles. The two large pliers in front of its body had a large attack surface. Although the steering was not fast enough, its slender and flexible tail completely made up for this weakness.

For a moment, Weis and the other two were in a hurry to avoid the attack of the scorpion.

"This won't work. I felt two strong auras coming quickly in the mushroom forest behind me. It should be the priests of this group of Drow elves!" Romon floated in the air and suddenly looked back vigilantly.

"Are you going to be killed?" Weiss bit his lips tightly, his face a little deteriorated. Since he advanced to the advanced level, he has not felt so powerless, which reminded him of some unbearable memories that he was extremely reluctant to look back.

"You two go, I'll stay and hold them!"

However, as a mature apostle who had experienced life and death, these negative emotions lasted for only a moment, and were thrown behind Weiss, and a trace of perseverance appeared on his face.

"No, leader, if you want to stay, stay together. We have already spent so many missions together and have already lived enough." Romon shook his head firmly, "I don't want to change teams in the future. What's the point of living like that?"

"It's even more meaningless to die! I'll leave the rear and there's still a possibility of escaping. You'll stay there too, it's just a burden!" Weiss shouted sternly, but a hint of relief appeared in his eyes. In any case, having such a group of companions accompany him to the end, he can already be content.

"Ao~~" Just as Weiss and Romon were arguing, the shield guard on the other side let out a painful growl.

His body expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and almost instantly he turned into a giant over sixteen feet tall.

The giant's skin was bronze and his muscles were scattered. Although he was nearly five meters tall, his body was four feet thick, making him look a little short and fat. The deltoid muscles on both sides of his neck were raised high, like bronze shoulder armor covering his shoulders.

Because the apostle equipment is composed of laws, the change in the body shape of the shield guard did not affect the equipment wear. Only the size of the tower shield did not change much. The tower shield that could cover the whole body was like an arm armor that was placed on the giant's right forearm.

"Ah~" After becoming a giant, the shield guard roared to the sky, lowered his head and shoulders to hit the scorpion in front of him.

"Bang!" Amid the huge impact, just a low-level barbaric collision made the scorpion hissing and retreat. The scorpion's tail hook flashed through the air with black afterimages, and then its poisonous tail needle could only leave white seals on the giant's body surface, but it failed to break through the giant's defense.

Seeing this, the giant did not hesitate and grabbed the big pliers of a scorpion with both hands. The two monsters were entangled like gladiators and wrestled with each other. However, the giant quickly overturned the scorpion to the ground, rode on its belly and beat the scorpion hard with its fists.

The crypt scorpion struggled angrily. Although it was huge, it was not a pure power creature. The sharp cherous limbs and tail hooks on its side had no choice but to deal with the giant, and was beaten and screamed in a while.

However, Shieldguard Newton's great power did not make Weiss and Romon feel joy. Instead, there was a hint of sadness and pain on their faces.

No matter in any other world, the apostle's skills must follow the most basic world law, that is, the law of conservation of energy. Newton used his second-level strength to perform this advanced skill that can compete with war troops, and the price he paid was unimaginable.

The most obvious sequelae is that the giantization can only last less than half a minute. After the skill duration is over, Newton will immediately fall into a weak state of halving all attributes and emptying energy, which means that he can no longer reborn from here.

Shield Guard was a man who was not good at speaking. When Weiss and Romon argued that who would leave behind the rear, he immediately made a decision and told his two companions with action, "I will leave behind the rear, you will leave."

"Let's go!" Weiss shouted out the word almost with a hoarse roar, and the figure covered with pale bone armor flew past the behemoths at both ends like lightning.

However, Weiss immediately slowed down. He found that his other companion, Romon, had not followed, and he immediately changed his face and looked back.

Behind the two monsters rolling and entangled, Romon was still floating in the air and waved at him with a smile. At the same time, the team channel also heard the calm voice of the black-robed mage.

"Someone needs to stop the two Drow priests, the leader of the group, remember to avenge us!"

"Romon!" Weiss' eyes blurred in an instant, and the white bone armor in his palm was crushed. His speed of flying increased by a piece, and he looked back at the battlefield.

"Hahaha, it's so wonderful. No wonder they are so nostalgic about these worlds!" The silver-haired elf put down the longbow of the world tree, inserted his bangs into his face, and raised his head and laughed wildly.

"I was still escaped!" He murmured to himself, a pair of cold eyes appeared in his fingers. "Without the explosion of that high-level apostle, the loss of the Drow Elves has not yet broken the bottom limit. It seems that he cannot achieve the goal perfectly."

"Forget it, there will be a chance to meet again in the future!"

He put down his hand, hunched his body in depression, hung his hands in front of him, shook his head like anger, and then jumped off the giant mushroom and disappeared into the darkness. He no longer waited for the death of Romon and Newton, and even didn't want the bloody cube that might appear.

...

As time passed, the noise of the mushroom woodland slowly calmed down. Romon and Newton died in exhaustion, and their bodies were swallowed by the seriously injured scorpion.

"What, that surface elf is gone?" A drow warrior's report surprised Wendini and Kirkna.

They always thought that the silver-haired elves were greedy for these human mercenaries, so they cooperated with the Drow Elves. Although they had secretly ordered several Drow warriors to stare at him, there was no one to monitor the battle just now. Unexpectedly, the surface elves ran away while taking advantage of such a small space.

"Miss Wendini, what do you think we will do next?" Kirkna hesitated for a moment and asked the old priest.

The intensity of the battle made her much more cautious. The cunning and insidiousness of the surface elf also made her feel a little afraid. Now the number of lizardman cavalry has shrunk by more than half, and the crypt scorpion has been seriously injured again. She is no longer as confident as before.

Every drow elves is very cunning and involves his own safety, and Kirkna doesn't mind listening to Wendini's advice at all.

"I think we can go back to Obalan, the two traitors have been killed, and the dwarves and human mercenaries who interfered with the trial have also been eliminated. Although it is a small regret that failed to sacrifice the fallen demon hunter, there is no need to delay it anymore." Wendini sighed and said a little unwillingly.

Because of her previous promise, the contributions of these recent battles were all due to Kirkna. Her idea of ​​using Qin Lun to sacrifice to the Queen of Spider God was also shattered. The only gain was that she made up for her merits and wiped out most of the dwarf exploration team that killed a large number of spider-turned elves. It should be able to calm the goddess's anger.

"I agree!" Kirkna breathed a sigh of relief. This was the safest way.

"Boom~Boom~Boom~" Just as the two drow priests integrated their team and commanded the remaining lizardman cavalry to withdraw from the mushroom woodland, a shaking explosion shocked everyone to the ground.

"Hiss~" The seriously injured scorpion made an uneasy sound, stomped the two giant lizards next to it, and circled around in annoyance.

"Firelight!" With the area where the Drow Elves are located as the core, strong flames and poisonous smoke rose from all directions of the mushroom woodland.

"Ao~" The angry roar of the mushroom man came from the fire, and the giant mushrooms twitched and contracted violently, and balls of pink mist with a sweet smell quickly spread in the mushroom forest.

"The hallucinating spore cloud!" Wendini and Kirkna changed their faces. They raised their hands and put a layer of magic shield around them. It is difficult to exempt the hallucinating spores in the mushroom woodland, which is the ability of the mushroom man clan to survive.

"Yes~Who~" A roar of anger came from a distance from the deep forest of the mushroom forest, and then a heavy "dongdongdongdong" sounded from all directions.
