When the crisis came, Sarlayan had no time to escape. The hair on his body stood on end and he hurriedly shouted an order: "Back off! No one can come near me!"
Stellagosa's reaction was also very quick, and she changed hands and teleported a dozen soldiers who were relatively close to the rear at fixed points.
Liadrin immediately threw the Blessing of Sacrifice to Sharlayan, and at the same time activated the Divine Shield.
Sarlayan, who was bending down to take care of the trophies, had no time to make fine adjustments. He could only turn around and cross his swords in front of him, using the broad blade to block his body as much as possible.
"Boom!"
With the blue-skinned fire demon as the center, the charged magic explosion exploded, and the huge impact pushed Sarlayan backwards, who was unsteady on his feet.
Fortunately, with Liadrin's unfortunate blessing of sacrifice, part of the damage was transferred to her side, and it happened to be neutralized by the Holy Shield.
After adjusting his posture in mid-air, Sarlayan endured the pain all over his body and landed steadily.
"Pooh!"
Spitting out a mouthful of bloody spit next to him, Sarlayan looked at the blue fire demon with a sardonic smile on his face with a gloomy expression.
"Shaslar? A guy with no martial ethics."
The real world is not a game, and BOSS will not just stand there stupidly waiting for you to challenge.
Long before the battle with Garr began, Sarlayan arranged for a small group of Black Iron scouts to enter the cave deeper into the Molten Core in advance to closely monitor the movements of Baron Geddon and Shathraal.
According to the report from the Black Iron Scout, Baron Geddon happened to patrol an area far away from the cave. There was a mutated fire demon with a dark blue body in a small square not far from the cave.
However, while the battle between Sarlayan and others and Gal was fiercely going on, the blue fire demon lord seemed completely unaware of the raging fight at the other end of the cave, and was still sliding its tail back and forth leisurely.
The cheers for the coalition's victory over Gar made the scouts responsible for monitoring Shaslar slightly distracted.
In just a few tenths of a second, Shaslar, who had been unhurried just now, suddenly disappeared from in front of them, and two long-distance flash spells crossed the space and came to Sarlayan.
Now is not the time to hold people responsible. The top priority is to kill this fire demon mutant first.
Fire demons are essentially elemental creatures born out of fire. They only resemble humanoids in appearance and are not flesh-and-blood creatures in the true sense.
Since it is a body composed of the fire element, the fire demon has a strong innate affinity for the fire element, so it is natural that he will choose his own advantageous projects to deeply explore his potential.
Shaslar is an outlier among the fire demons. He gave up the strong points of the fire demon and unexpectedly chose to use arcane energy to replace the fire element in his body.
As a result, Shaslar's life form mutated, and the abundant fire element in his body was almost completely replaced by arcane energy.
The special body structure allows Shaslar to gain a lot of boost when casting arcane spells, and it can also greatly reduce the incantation and preparation time when casting large-scale spells.
Magic Explosion is not a rare spell for mages. It is one of the three spells that entry-level mages must learn along with Arcane Missile and Mana Shield, representing single target, group attack and protection respectively.
Shaslar's Magic Explosion Technique was no ordinary thing, and Sarlayan felt the majestic magic power contained in it the moment he suffered the attack.
Unprepared, and even with Liadrin's emergency blessing of sacrifice, Thalayan was still seriously injured, both internally and externally.
Fortunately, his recovery power is strong enough. Under the influence of the red dragon's blood, it only takes a short breather for the wounds inside and outside the body to heal automatically.
While the Holy Shield spell had not dissipated, Liadrin consciously took over the work that Sharlayan had originally undertaken, and took the lead without hesitation.
Among the three specializations of the Paladin, Liadrin majors in protection and minors in holy light (healing).
Although her combat experience is not as rich as Sharlayan's, she can still do the job for a while.
Liadrin blessed herself with the King's Blessing, which increased all aspects of her attributes, and also opened the pious aura that increased all-round resistance.
When she rushed to Shathraal with the Priest's Speed of Light spell, the guy raised his hands and was about to pursue the injured Sarlayan.
Liadrin hit him with a shield quickly, and the power of holy light attached to the shield interrupted Shathra's spellcasting.
This is the Paladin's rebuke skill. If the person hit is in a spell-casting state, the power of the Holy Light that penetrates can temporarily disturb the energy balance in the opponent's body, making him unable to cast all other spells of the same type for a short period of time.
Shaslar was extremely partial to science. After replacing the fire element in his body with arcane energy, he lost the ability to use other spells and could only focus on arcane magic.
After the spell was interrupted, Shaslar was a little confused. Since he could no longer use arcane spells, he didn't know what to do for a while.
Liadrin took advantage of the victory and pursued the attack. Her skillful sword and shield attacks forced Shathraal, a spellcaster, into a state of embarrassment. He could only swam the snake's tail to dodge backwards.
After finally surviving the spell-casting vacuum period, Shaslar suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and had a strong premonition that he was being targeted.
Following his body's instinct, the first spell he released was not a counterattack, but continued to flash backwards.
"Whoosh!"
A magical arrow that shot through the air was inserted right into the position where Shaslar was before using Flash, and it penetrated deeply into the scorched earth.
"Tsk!"
Sylvanas, who was hiding in the center of the army and launching precise snipers, was a little dissatisfied: "Sure enough, not every Fire Lord is as slow as Magamanda. The side effects of the Eagle Eye technique are quite troublesome."
Stellagosa, who was responsible for mediating the atmosphere in the team, for the first time did not respond to Sylvanas's complaint. Her face was very gloomy.
Stellagosa knew that with Sarayan's physical fitness, this minor injury was nothing.
But seeing her man being injured by magic under her nose, Stellagosa still couldn't suppress the anger in her heart.
In barrage terms, this is playing a big ax in front of Luban’s gate.
Facing Shathraal, who can move flexibly with Blink, Sylvanas' long-range sniper is not so easy to hit.
Unless she continues to close the distance and gives up using the Eagle Eye technique to locate the target, once the Eagle Eye technique is used to lock the target, the opponent will almost certainly develop a stress response.
As the saying goes, misfortunes never come alone, but blessings never come alone.
The black iron scouts who were stationed in the cave to monitor the situation finally came into play at this time.
According to their emergency report, the soldiers under Shaslar and Baron Gadon were gathering together and rushing towards this side. The scouts could clearly see a huge fire element rushing at the front of the team.
If nothing else, this super-large fire element is Ragnaros’ beloved general, Baron Geddon.
When Moira heard the news, she felt a little dizzy. She felt like she was being ambushed.
"Don't doubt it, your feeling is probably right."
Sarlayan, who was left behind to recover from his injuries, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and a look of thought flashed in his eyes.
"After all, Garr is an outsider who came from Deep Rock Continent. Although Ragnaros magnanimously showed an equal attitude, the Fire Lord below may not accept it."
Moira frowned and guessed: "What you mean is that Gard's isolation was part of Baron Geddon and Shaslar's plan. They originally planned to use him as bait to make us relax our vigilance at the moment of victory. , so they can take the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on us?"
Sarlayan nodded solemnly: "Although I don't know the more specific details, judging from the current situation, it should be close to ten."
Moira turned her gaze and looked worriedly at the black iron scouts who were distributed like a relay inside the cave.
"That means we have to face two Fire Lords at the same time next?"
"Ha~"
Sarlayan twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled: "This is expected. I originally thought that when we attacked Lucifron and Magamanda, we would start fighting on both sides at the same time. It is good luck to delay it until now. "
Glancing at the angry little star who was furiously outputting at Shaslar, Sarlayan focused most of his attention on the other end of the cave.
"Leave it to the three of them here. Your Highness, I will leave my back to you."
Moira raised her bushy eyebrows in surprise: "You... want to stop Baron Geddon alone?"
Sarlayan smiled and shrugged: "Not alone, but with your assistance, His Highness?"
