We're Already In Close Combat And You Still Say You're A Mage?

"This woman's current state is very strange. I can't feel a trace of life in her body."

"But she's still alive."

Xu Bai looked at the compound-eyed woman in front of him and expressed his judgment.

"I think she was 'frozen'."

"freeze?"

Omi was puzzled.

"look."

The wound on the forehead of the compound-eyed woman that Xu Bai pointed to was just penetrated by the short blade in Omi's hand, the incision on her neck and throat, and the wound that penetrated her body and nailed her to the stone wall of the castle. Black Crystal Ant amputated her limbs and said: "She has suffered so many fatal injuries, but she is still alive. This is enough to explain some problems."

"I think the reason why she is in this half-dead state is because the timeline on her body is frozen."

"And the word 'run' that she keeps repeating in her mouth means that she is talking to people or things that we cannot contact in that frozen timeline."

"Are you...so sure?"

Oumi looked at Xu Bai with disbelief.

"It's just my own speculation."

Xu Bai shrugged and didn't care.

"Da~~~Da~~~Da~~~"

At this moment, a few stuttering footsteps came from inside the castle.

It's underneath them.

"somebody is coming."

The two of them immediately went on alert, pressing themselves against the highest wall of the castle, slowing down their heartbeats and breathing rates, minimizing their body's biological activities, and getting ready to ambush the enemy who suddenly appeared.

.......

soon.

The footsteps are getting closer.

Omi has already tightened his grip on the short blade in his hand.

Xu Bai's pupils were filled with elemental light.

Be prepared to mobilize elements in the surrounding space at any time.

Footsteps approached, and conversations could be heard vaguely.

"Is this the "execution circle" in the center? How can it be a castle without a door? "

"Are there any key props inside?"

A female voice came from the stairs below them.

And the castle she talked about without a door actually had a door.

And there are two huge carved stone doors.

However, the stone gate had already been blown up by Omi.

It turned into rubble all over the ground and was disposed of by the two of them.

"Let's go up and take a look first. I'm not very sure now."

Another male voice.

"Gan, damn it."

"Why are there so many corpses of big ants here?"

"Don't touch it randomly, it's better to be cautious."

This is the second male voice.

"Let's go."

"stop!"

There was a short "didi" sound, and the female walker in the team spoke.

Signal your companion to stop.

She majored in both the auxiliary system and the perception system, and was the auxiliary/reconnaissance position in the temporary team.

"What's going on, tanuki."

the teammate beside her asked.

"There are biological reactions detected. There are two of them, probably around the lord level."

"Tch, what did I think? Seeing you so serious scared me."

"It's not like we haven't encountered lord-level creatures along the way, and they were all killed by us."

Next to the auxiliary system known as the raccoon cat, a teammate said nonchalantly.

Now the survival trial has come to an end.

The walkers who can survive till now are not weak in strength.

He does have the capital and does not take lord-level creatures seriously.

but......

The "lord-level creatures" they detected were actually Xu Bai and Omi who minimized their biological activities and slowed down their heartbeat and breathing rate.

"Let's go, stop being so impatient."

"Isn't it just two lord-level creatures?"

"Is it possible that you are afraid?"

Next to Tanuki, another teammate joked.

He is the tank of this team.

He is a serious Tan dad.

With the hard body given by his SS-level talent "Steel Body" and the bonus provided by the profession "Patient", he can increase his defense power by taking damage.

In the last trial, this Tan dad had carried the attack of three lord-level creatures alone without the healing system to increase his life, buying time for the team members behind him to output firepower.

"Go up and see what's in here. I'll take the lead."

Tan's father was disdainful.

In his opinion.

The two lord-level creatures are a piece of cake.

not to mention.

There is also a real big daddy in their squad.

...

soon.

Stuttering footsteps and voices approached the top floor where Xu Bai and Omi were.

Three figures walked out of the lower stairs.

The lighting equipment in their hands shines onto the fifth floor.

They didn't immediately notice Xu Bai and Omi clinging to the stone wall next to the stairs.

The leader of the tank team used the lighting equipment in his hand to see the half-dead compound-eyed woman deep in the fifth floor.

He turned around and asked his teammates behind him.

"Raccoon cat, is this what you said, that there are two lord-level biological reactions on the top?"

The civet cat was a little embarrassed, patted the detection device in his hand, and said in a subtle tone.

"Maybe the instrument is broken..."

The word "broken" in "broken" has not been finished yet.

The instrument interface in her hand.

Suddenly there was an orange color representing lord-level creatures.

It instantly turned into a dazzling blood red.

A sharp beep sounded at the same time.

"Juggernaut-level biological response alert!!!"

"Juggernaut-level biological response alert!!!"

"Juggernaut-level biological response alert!!!"

........

The high-pitched alarm sound from the instrument continued.

The expressions of several members of the civet team suddenly changed.

The next moment, the civet cat felt a chill on his neck.

Then his vision spun and rolled.

She saw her headless body falling slowly.

The lighting device in his hand also fell to the ground, shining behind the corpse.

Light transmitted through lighting fixtures.

The civet cat could vaguely see it with its blurred vision.

Behind the body.

A woman with a ghostly figure retracted the short blade in her hand.

........

Omi succeeded in a sneak attack, retracted the short blade in his hand, raised his right leg, and the activated power boots on his feet drew a red afterimage in the dim fifth floor, and kicked him directly. On the lower back of the headless body of the civet cat.

"boom--!"

There was a loud bang.

The air wave breaks.

The headless body of the civet cat instantly flew towards the two teammates in front who had just reacted.

The enemy's tank stepped up to block another teammate.

But he underestimated the power of Omi's kick.

next moment.

"boom--!"

The body hit Tan dad.

There was another loud noise.

That Tan dad flew out backwards together with his teammates behind him.
