Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth

Boom!

Thunder rumbled, lightning illuminated the entire forest for a moment, and the tall and thin figure of the corpse demon also appeared.

The two rangers couldn't help but take a step back together, looking embarrassed, obviously regretting provoking this difficult guy.

But at this moment, there was no room for retreat.

Only fight!

The long sword cut through the rain curtain, and one of them stepped forward and swung the weapon in his hand vigorously, making a few moves with the corpse demon, but each time he was forced back by its iron-hard arms.

This thing is a real bouncing knife.

At this time, the corpse demon seemed to have had enough fun. It laughed twice in a playful way, and suddenly pounced forward, without any signs, without any forward swing, as if it was teleporting and floating directly.

Boom!

The breastplate made a sound of being hit by a heavy object.

The breastplate that could crack the thick stone slab in the test played its role well and protected the ranger.

Even so, when he rolled on the ground, he still felt a pain in his heart and liver as if they were dislocated.

"Ahem... not well yet..."

Whoosh——

A firework rose up, passed through the gaps between leaves and branches, and rose into the sky against the rain, exploding orange and red fireworks.

It was particularly eye-catching above the dark jungle.

"Get out of here!"

Another person came a step slower, holding back the big hand of the corpse demon with his sword, but how could the power of a mortal compare with that of a monster?

Soon, he and the ranger lying on the ground were overturned together, and each hit a tree.

"It's so uncomfortable, I seem to be sick..."

The ranger who fell to the ground first began to cough, and the paleness on his face could not even be covered by the night.

Maybe he will soon fall into a deep sleep like the boy in the village.

"Pfft!"

The other man spat out the dirt that he had accidentally bitten in his mouth, and immediately stood up and said:

"You haven't drunk your milk yet, take it out quickly, and remember to run away after drinking it, I will hold it back."

He didn't wait for a response on the spot, and rushed forward after saying this.

"In the name of our lord Levi, I will never take a step back!"

Dang!

This sword used all its strength, and it collided with the shriveled skin of the corpse demon. Its ferocity was more like hitting the corpse demon than cutting it.

For a while, the corpse demon actually took a step back.

The ranger was a little confused.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but I always felt that the corpse demon's momentum was much weaker after the war cry just now, so that it could be repelled by himself.

But that's all.

The corpse demon looked left and right, and after reacting, he was furious and rushed over with his big hands.

When the danger of death was about to come.

Whoosh——

An old dagger was thrown from a tricky angle and directly pierced into the corpse's dark and ethereal body.

Ah——!

A piercing scream sounded, almost breaking the eardrums.

"Courage is the sharp blade that breaks fear."

A man in a dark green robe drew out a long sword with a rather simple shape from his waist, split the piercing noise, and rushed towards the corpse without hesitation, stepping on the rain.

The strong and tall figure was deeply imprinted in the minds of the two trainee rangers.

His figure was as swift as a cheetah, but his strength was like a tiger. Every sword could make the corpse stagger back a step. Several unexpected hits directly cut off several pieces of the burial ornaments on the corpse, and even the darkness on the body faded a lot, and was beaten to a little transparent.

The glimmer in the corpse's eyes gradually became a little red as the anger rose. It swung its iron rod-like arm, but the sword on the opposite side showed characteristics that did not belong to its quality, and directly knocked the arm back like a heavy hammer.

A feeling of heat rose from the surroundings, but was quickly extinguished by the rain.

This strange feeling made the corpse demon feel palpitations.

Yes, the corpse demon who can best explain the meaning of the word "strange" finally experienced this feeling today.

As the battle progressed, the darkness needed to maintain the body continued to drain away, but the mysterious man who suddenly appeared was not injured at all, and there was no sign of fatigue.

Whoosh——

The corpse demon flashed and retreated deeper into the woods.

This is a strategic retreat.

Whoosh!

A firework shot out horizontally, dragging white particles and hitting the corpse demon at a moderate speed, causing a series of explosions.

Kinetic energy was transmitted from the back to the chest.

If the glimmer in the eyes was contagious, then the corpse demon should have turned red all over at this moment.

The explosion of the firework did not harm the corpse demon. After all, this thing has nothing to do with magic, but the impact of its explosion strangely affected the corpse demon, causing its body to stop for a moment.

The people behind caught up.

"Ahem..."

Everything happened in just a moment. The ranger on the ground quickly finished a bottle of milk and stood up, looking at the place where the man and the corpse disappeared.

"What is that?"

The agile figure and confident steps, as well as superb swordsmanship and the courage to hunt down the corpse.

"Could it be that the lord came in person?"

The two were a little excited, but soon the excitement was extinguished with the falling rain.

The cold water droplets and the varying degrees of internal and external pain on their bodies calmed them down.

"No, the lord is not so weak. If the lord came in person, I dare say that the corpse would not last more than two times."

"That makes sense, but there is one thing I don't agree with - if the lord came, maybe the corpse would run away at the beginning."

"That's right." This time, the other ranger didn't argue, and the two of them were surprisingly in agreement.

"You two are so idle that you still have time to talk here. Are you healed?"

Click.

Suddenly, the two felt their shoulders sink, and a pair of hands grabbed them silently from behind.

Quite hard.

The two shuddered and immediately turned around, only to see that the man who was just chasing the corpse demon had actually circled behind them at some point.

The man took off his hood, revealing a weathered face.

"Thank you, you saved our lives!"

The two rangers immediately changed the subject and saluted him.

"Okay, let's check if there are any wounds or toxins left on our bodies. It doesn't matter if we finish the milk. If you are lucky, you can also try to find it in the weeds on the roadside. There is a grass called Aseras that can also relieve the toxins and curses of the corpse demon."

"This grass may not be very common, but it is definitely not rare. You can definitely find it somewhere with a little effort."

As he spoke, the tall man squatted down and pulled out a grass with a slightly curled top next to the tree root.

"It looks like this, remember, two little sprouts of roadside forts."

Little sprouts?

When they heard this word, the two of them immediately became energetic.

Isn't this the name that only the vagrant instructors would say!

"Excuse me, who are you?"

"Faloddan, an ordinary vagrant."

I knew it!

The two of them brightened their eyes, and a sense of relief came like a tide.

But along with the sense of relief, there was still a trace of guilt.

I hope the instructor doesn't mind us comparing him to the lord...

"We remember that, instructor!"

No matter what they thought, the two trainee rangers stood at attention and saluted on the spot.

Farodan sighed, waved his hand to signal the two not to be tense, and continued: "There are also some problems with your fighting style. Have you forgotten that fireworks can also be fired as crossbows?"

"Although it can't really hurt monsters like corpse demons, its own 'explosion' attribute can also effectively cause a 'knockback' effect."

"Did you listen carefully during the training in the barracks?"
