Path of light

Chapter 380 381. Fierce battle

A thick copper-covered book stood in front of Roy. The handle of the hammer hit the copper-covered book, but it did not knock the young half-elf in front of him to the ground as the gray dwarf leader expected.

Roy only felt severe pain in his arms, but at this moment he was holding the 'Book of Judgment' in his hands steadily.

His arms exuded a layer of white holy light, which was particularly conspicuous in the dark mine.

The gray dwarf leader's eyes widened and he stared at Roy in surprise. He suddenly raised his leg and kicked Roy in the abdomen. However, Roy had the same idea at the moment. Both of them kicked each other in the abdomen at the same time. , but Roy's legs were much longer than the gray dwarf leader, so the gray dwarf leader received a solid kick from Roy.

Although the gray dwarf leader kicked Roy, he seemed to have hit a cold rock, and then he was kicked away by Roy.

His strong body collided with the gray dwarf robber behind him. After taking three steps back, the gray dwarf robber regained his balance.

The gray dwarf bandits around him were already fighting with the Dark Moon Elf warriors. The Dark Moon Elf warriors were wearing fine armor and holding standard daggers, which were also excellent quality weapons. Although the gray dwarf bandits used mining picks in their hands, This type of weapon does not have any advantage when fighting in the mine.

The Dark Moon Elf warriors took advantage of the dim light to easily sneak attack on the gray dwarf bandits.

For a moment, the gray dwarf bandits who rushed in from the mine were bleeding.

The Dark Moon Elf warriors pursued the victory and knocked down several gray dwarf bandits in succession.

When the gray dwarf bandits saw that their leader had been pushed back by the other side, they quickly retreated. A group of gray dwarf bandits crowded at the entrance of the mine. The gray dwarves behind them heard the heart-rending howls of their companions inside. Too scared to rush inside.

Immediately afterwards, gray dwarf bandits ran out of the mine shaft.

The gray dwarf leader was left at the very back, with only a hammer handle left in his hand, surrounded by almost all Dark Moon Elf warriors.

These Dark Moon Elf warriors slashed the gray dwarf leader several times with their knives, blood spattered, and he lost his ax in both hands. The gray dwarf leader could not stand in front of him alone. He could only wave the hammer handle randomly and retreat with the gray dwarf bandits.

The elven warriors retaken the entrance to the shaft mine...

If it weren't for the moonstone powder still remaining in the mine, the Dark Moon Elf warriors would have taken the opportunity to kill them.

Roy finally understood why these gray dwarf bandits occupied the exit of the mine. With the strong fighting power they have shown so far, it is really not difficult to defeat the mixed-blood elves and dark moon elves in the mine...

Taking advantage of the Dark Moon Elf warriors to retake the mine entrance, Roy took the opportunity to bandage the wounds of four seriously injured mixed-blood elves.

Nowadays, he is running a business of primary magic herbal medicine in Castleton City, so the most indispensable thing in his hand is primary healing potion. Seeing that the mixed-blood elf warriors were injured, he quickly took out the primary healing potion from his magic pocket. Come, let them drink it first.

Then wrap the wound with a hemostatic bandage...

Roy poured himself a bottle of spiritual potion, then held the copper book and the entrance of the mine where the Dark Moon Elf warriors were, and together with the Elf warriors blocked the counterattack of the gray dwarf bandits.

This sneak attack plan failed.

According to Roy's plan, the Dark Moon Elf warriors will occupy the mine tunnel in front of the shaft mine for the first time. Only by seizing this mine tunnel can they sneak into the mine...

At that time, the Dark Moon Elf warriors will take the opportunity to enter the mine, so that they can quickly control the entire mine.

It is a pity that although the Dark Moon Elf warriors strangled several gray dwarf bandits in the mine tunnel, they did not seize control of the mine tunnel...

Instead, the gray dwarf leader led his men to launch a counterattack against the elf warriors, and almost took the shaft back.

Captain Timothy was hit in the chest by a gray dwarf bandit with a stone hammer, and two ribs were broken on the spot...

The person currently at the entrance of the mine is Deputy Captain Tennyson. He is obviously an excellent assassin. He can always find the opponent's weaknesses in every battle. Even in a melee, he can easily knock down the opponent.

Almost all of the ten young mixed-blood warriors Roy brought down the well were injured at this moment...

Throwing out a 'Hammer of Judgment' again, the power of Holy Light in Roy's body was also exhausted.

A gray dwarf warrior happened to rush up from the mine tunnel. He watched as a small silver hammer flew out of the mine tunnel and hit his chest with great precision. The gray dwarf robber's chest collapsed quickly, and the gray dwarf robber also sprayed. A mouthful of blood came out and he immediately fell on his back.

The morale of the few Dark Moon Elf warriors guarding the entrance of the mine suddenly rose.

Roy wiped the greasy sweat from his face and ordered the Dark Moon Elf beside him: "Let's hold on a little longer..."

…

The hanging box sank into the mine again...

The mixed-blood elf warrior Vitus took four mixed-blood elf warriors on the bottom hanging box.

In the two hanging boxes above their heads, twenty mixed-blood elf warriors were squeezed...

In the hanging box where Vitas is located, in addition to five mixed-blood elf warriors, there is also a bed crossbow and a bundle of two-meter-long crossbow arrows. These crossbow arrows are all equipped with spear points...

This bed crossbow was originally discovered by Roy outside the military supplies warehouse on the fourth floor of the third mine.

Before he entered the mine, he asked Vitas to organize the second group of mixed elf warriors to enter the mine, and also move the small bed crossbow in front of him into the mine.

Vitas believes that in a mine with a complex environment, this kind of small bed crossbow is obviously difficult to use when facing the twists and turns of the mine tunnel.

With these questions, Vitas followed the mixed elf warrior into the mine.

The hanging box slowly descended, and halfway through the journey, a series of fighting sounds were heard from below the shaft, along with the wails of some gray dwarf bandits.

All the mixed-blood elves entered a state of nervous preparation. They waited until the hanging box fell to the bottom of the mine. A thick smell of blood rushed towards them in the entire mine, almost suffocating Vitas.

The sound of fighting in the mine has not stopped, but it is obviously much quieter...

When Vitas jumped out of the hanging box and saw the shaft mine in front of him full of corpses, he was slightly distracted and almost tripped over the corpse of a gray dwarf bandit.

But then he suddenly woke up, quickly shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind, and ordered the mixed elf warrior behind him:

"Hurry up and bring out the bed crossbow..."

Since the space on the city wall of the third mine is not very sufficient, even the bed crossbows placed on the city wall are small.

This bed crossbow is more than enough to be placed in the hanging box...

That's why Roy had a sudden idea and asked Vitas to transport the bed crossbow to the mine.

Several mixed-blood elves carried the bed crossbow into the mine in a hurry. Ten more fully-armed mixed-blood elf warriors jumped down from the hanging box above. Through the faint sacred light, they saw several A Dark Moon Elf warrior followed Roy and fought with the gray dwarf bandits at the entrance of the shaft mine. He quickly stepped on the corpses on the ground and rushed towards the entrance of the mine...

Vitas took four mixed-blood elf warriors, set up the bow string of the small bed crossbow, and put two crossbow arrows into the arrow slot...

Roy finally breathed a sigh of relief when the reinforcements of the mixed-blood elf warriors arrived.

He gave up the entrance of the mine to the group of mixed-blood elf warriors who had just entered the mine, turned around and ordered:

"Put the gray dwarf robber corpses in the hanging box and transport them to the mine later. Vitas, are you ready with your bed crossbow?"

At this time, Vitas was squatting in the dark mine. He had just put on the bow string, and the other two mixed elf warriors began to install the winch and tilting frame on the bed crossbow...

"Okay, boss!" Vitas replied quickly.

Roy walked over quickly and saw that the string of the bed crossbow was pulled open and two crossbow arrows were hung in the groove of the bed crossbow.

Roy commanded two mixed elf warriors to aim the bed crossbow at the entrance of the mine...

…

The gray dwarf leader returned from the mine to the mine tunnel. He immediately threw away the useless hammer handle in his hand and took a stone hammer from the hand of a gray dwarf beside him. He weighed the stone hammer twice in his hand. Next, feeling quite good, he grabbed a wooden shield from the hand of a gray dwarf bandit next to him.

After taking a slight breath, he held up his wooden shield and rushed into the mine tunnel again.

After rushing all the way to the front, the gray dwarf held a wooden shield in his hand and rushed into the mine...

The few mixed-blood elf warriors guarding the entrance of the mine were unable to stop the gray dwarf leader at all, and were knocked back by the stone hammer in his hand.

A group of gray dwarf bandits immediately followed the gray dwarf leader and fought their way out of the mine tunnel.

A shout came over, and the mixed-blood elf warrior quickly moved to the left and right sides to avoid...

Then the gray dwarf leader heard the sound of a bowstring being plucked.

A few meters away, the crossbow arrow arrived in an instant, just grazing the gray dwarf leader's shoulder and flying past, bringing with it a sharp strong wind and scraping a wound on his cheek.

Another crossbow arrow flew past his right arm and drew a blood groove on the gray dwarf leader's arm.

There were even more screams from behind...

The gray dwarf leader also moved a little slowly, and a Dark Moon Elf warrior emerged from behind him and slashed his thigh.

At this moment, the gray dwarf leader's eyes were no longer on the Dark Moon Elf warrior. He cast his eyes on the bed crossbow in the mine, and was frightened by the re-stretched bow string on the bed crossbow. He screamed without hesitation. He smashed the wooden shield on the Dark Moon Elf, turned around and fled along the mine tunnel.

When he fired the crossbow for the first time, Vitas was still a little confused about the flight path of the crossbow, so he shot a little off...

When he fired the crossbow for the second time, Vitus was still very accurate. The two crossbows almost flew out after the gray dwarf leader's back.

The gray dwarf leader let out a dull roar and then disappeared into the dark mine.

…

Roy knew that the gray dwarf leader should have been injured by the crossbow arrow on the bed...

As the gray dwarf leader was wounded and fled the battlefield, the gray dwarf bandits who had no fighting spirit immediately retreated into the dark mine.

Twenty Dark Moon Elf warriors took the opportunity to chase into the mine tunnel.

At this time, Roy also led more than 20 mixed-blood elves into the mine tunnel, and took advantage of the situation to rush into the mine where the gray dwarves lived. The layout of this mine was no different from a dormitory, and the rock wall was actually covered with gray dwarfs. The dwarves dug out double-decker beds, which were also covered with linen sheets.

There are more than forty beds on one rock wall, and there are also beds carved on the rock wall on the other side...

Even the rock wall above the head of this mine was dug very flat, and a group of gray dwarf bandits were running around in the mine.

Roy sat down on a stone chair in the mine. He put his hands on the stone table and looked at the row of gray dwarves who had been captured by the mixed elf warriors in the mine. Roy thought for a moment and then Asked the gray dwarf bandit on the far left:

"Tell me, how are the mixed-blood elves in the mine doing now?"

The gray dwarf was stained with blood. When he saw Roy, his teeth were chattering. His hands were tied behind his back with a hemp rope. He hesitated, and then he looked at the middle of the team.

Roy didn't urge him, he just stared at the gray dwarf silently.

The gray dwarf hesitated for a moment, and then replied tremblingly: "They were driven into a mine by us..."

Before the gray dwarf bandit finished speaking, a gray dwarf in the middle of the row shouted: "Don't tell them, even if you tell them... we will still die!"

The gray dwarf on the far left immediately closed his mouth and refused to say another word.

Roy ignored the gray dwarf in the middle and asked all the gray dwarf prisoners in front of him:

"Which of you would like to speak?"

"As far as I'm concerned, we drove those mixed elves into the mine at the southernmost end of the mine." A gray dwarf bandit said loudly and impatiently.

Roy nodded and said to the gray dwarf, "I'd like to trouble you to take us over to have a look..."

The remaining gray dwarf bandits were gathered together by the mixed elves. In order to prevent them from breaking away, these gray dwarf bandits tied their wrists with chains and hung them on the stone wall...

The gray dwarf bandit took Roy and his group to the south of the mine for a while, and found that he didn't meet any other gray dwarf bandits along the way. Then he became a little panicked and said to Roy cautiously: "Go a little further ahead." The road is here.”

Roy nodded noncommittally.

It wasn't until he walked into the mine where the mixed-blood elf miners were that Roy discovered that the mine was continuously sloping upwards. A group of thin and half-clothed mixed-blood elf miners were all crowded in this mine tunnel.

And this mine tunnel has obviously been separated from the ore veins, and no gemstones can be collected here at all.

Probably seeing the gray dwarf bandit walking at the front, a half-blood elf who was weak from hunger leaned against the rock wall and begged the gray dwarf bandit:

"Give us some more food. We have only eaten a little bit of moss for a while and have no energy to dig out rocks..."

The gray dwarf robber had his hands tied with ropes. He looked at the mixed elf who complained to him and said in panic:

"I don't have any food for you. At this time, who can control who else..."

Before he finished speaking, the mixed-blood elf warriors following Roy ran forward and handed out the elf biscuits and water bags they carried.
