Chapter 102: The Queen Feels Provoked ( words)
Led by Sergeant Giri, all the soldiers present looked up in panic, looking at the several black pipes aimed at them with confusion and trembling.

As they stared in astonishment, before they could react, huge streams of blazing flames gushed out of the black tubes, like several fire dragons, instantly sweeping across the entire area, even the rock walls were burned red. In the closed passages in front and behind, rolling waves of flames were seen everywhere, and soul-stirring wails rose one after another.

Squirm, struggle.

The soldiers who had already melted into the sea of ​​fire scratched the rock walls, trying to escape from this cage, but in the end they were unable to escape. Amid the crackling sound of flames burning flesh and blood, the helpless soldiers gradually turned into charred skeletons, and finally sublimated into nothingness, becoming the energy of the territory.

【After the poisonous fog, attack it with water and fire. 】

[The Saint Lady actually has the talent of a prophet. 】

[I just don't know, with fire but no water, can the Saint Lady be satisfied? ]

Gu An used the [Lord of the Cave] skill to observe the sea of ​​fire. The flames engulfed everything and the figure of Saint Alia could no longer be seen.

What Alia said before was actually true.

Although using only poison fog as a trap can facilitate large-scale killing of enemies, its structure is indeed too simple. Once discovered, it is very easy to be defended against.

Just like the soldiers nowadays, even if they are weak and do not have as many defensive means as Saint Alia, as long as they wear gas masks, no matter how thick the poisonous fog is, they will not be hurt at all.

This is actually a big disadvantage.

But this is just Trap 2.0.

In order to welcome the arrival of the Elf Saint, Gu An made sufficient preparations in advance. After the territory was upgraded, the trap was successfully upgraded to version 3.0.

Today's poison fog trap is no longer as simple as spraying poison fog, but has integrated the more advanced [Flame Furnace Trap].

Water and fire are merciless. In the sea of ​​fire that sweeps in all directions, unless you are strong enough to break through the wall or release a magic barrier, you will not escape death even if you hide in a water bag.

This combination trap is extremely powerful, and it directly makes up for the loophole that weak enemies can use gas masks to escape by chance.

If Alia had come to the cave earlier, she would probably be very disappointed, but Gu An is not a casual person.

When a distinguished guest visits, he must be treated with the highest courtesy.

The Saint wants water and fire, but now one of them, water, is missing. There is a slight flaw, but it shouldn't be a big deal, right?
After all, the Saint Lady has a lot of fat, so she should be a broad-minded person and will definitely not care about such a small matter.

With a smile on his face, Gu An made a decision for the Saint.

"Boom boom boom!"

The sea of ​​fire dissipated, the flames subsided, the air was steaming, and with a loud bang, the rock wall that blocked the passage began to slowly fall, and the black pipe on the top of the rock was slowly retracted.

After everything calmed down, Gu An saw Alia and others again.

At this time, all the weak soldiers had died and disappeared. Alia was like a piece of ice that was isolated from the world. After being tempered by the sea of ​​fire, she still stood there with her back straight. Her cold and elegant temperament was still so superior and calm.

Four female elves surrounded her in front and behind. These obedient pets joined forces to use their magic power to form a barrier that was impervious to water and fire. Sergeant Jiri hid under Janina's skirt, holding his head and trembling.

[What a glorious act of an imperial soldier! ]

Gu An was not surprised at all that Saint Alia was safe and sound.

He already knew that it would be impossible to defeat this battle-hardened elven saint with just a trap.

If a fire could kill the saint, it means that the goddess was most likely diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, and it was the late stage one.

He launched the fire trap just to drive away the miscellaneous soldiers and free up space to facilitate the next round of attack.

"Damn it!" Realizing that the danger was over, Sergeant Jiri lay under Janina's skirt and pounded the ground angrily.

"Despicable demon apostle, cunning, cunning to the extreme!"

After several days of high-intensity siege warfare, thousands of soldiers, even if they were all maggots and could not kill the tiger, could at least make the tiger exhausted.

Sergeant Jiri never expected that the Fallen in the cave could hide a back-up trap in such a situation.

He almost died in the fire, and he was still frightened. He was so angry that he cursed and pounded the stones on the floor as if they were damn monsters to vent his emotions.

The look of impotence and rage once again illustrates the glorious image of the Kingdom Legion.

Sergeant Giri is an expert at entertaining, flattering, and playing political games, but on a real battlefield, this kind of person is a complete insect.

Although Saint Alia likes to show off and likes to show off, as a practical person, her emotions are much more stable than Sergeant Jiri.

She didn't care that the soldiers died.

But the burning air made her sweat a lot after the shield was gone, and her clothes were soaked with it. She really didn't like this sticky feeling.

Moreover, she had just finished saying that the traps set by the monsters were too weak when a fire attack killed all the soldiers. This was obviously a deliberate slap in the face.

It's a naked humiliation.

This is the thing that the always arrogant Alia can't tolerate the most.

Her brows were tightly furrowed, her hands were clasped across her chest, her face was unusually cold, and her eyes were like knives that had been frozen for hundreds of years. She stared at the ceiling, as if she could see directly through the rock wall and look at Gu An deep in the cave.

“From the moment I entered the cave, I felt like I was being watched.”

"Fallen, you have been secretly observing this, right?"

He is worthy of being blessed by the goddess.

Alia's profession is [Holy Archer], and she has a strong insight. Through her keen intuition, she has sensed that someone is secretly monitoring her.

Gu An was somewhat surprised.

The goddess' blessing is indeed not simple.

Under normal circumstances, after the territory enters version 3.0, the insight below level 40 is simply unable to detect the situation inside the cave, let alone discover the surveillance of the [Cave Lord] skill.

Saint Alia's ability to observe far beyond her level is definitely an improvement brought about by the goddess' blessing.

The reason why Tia has no obvious special abilities is probably because she was sealed by the people behind Toheti and has not yet fully awakened.

It seems that I have underestimated the power of "Goddess' Blessing".

Gu An touched his chin and realized that he had misjudged the power of the Goddess's blessing because of Tiya's special nature.

But it doesn't hurt.

He was in an absolutely safe position. Even if the elven saint noticed that he was being monitored, she would have no way to stop him, let alone take action against him.

It’s just that the original battle plan may need to be changed.

The elven saint has a strong insight, so sneak attacks are no longer effective. The ghost goblins may not be safe either, so you can retreat first.

There is no need to attack from both sides, as the elven saint will notice it in advance.

In that case, let's just confront it head-on.

Gu An did not reply to Alia. He thought that after the battle, there would be plenty of time to develop feelings.

He first ordered the Ghost Goblins to retreat to the rear and monitor Luka, then ordered the Goblins that were flanking the area to stop and join up with the Fire Goblins that were attacking from the front.

Ignoring is the greatest contempt. Alia's provocation in anger was like hitting cotton.

Looking at the quiet air, the queen, who was already in a bad mood and had a strong sense of self-esteem, felt even more seriously provoked.

She said coldly to the air: "Humph!"

"A coward, a worm hiding in the darkness."

"Since you don't want to talk, then wait for this Saint Lady to personally pull you out and teach you what courtesy and manners mean."

Alia stood resolutely, her tone unusually cold, especially the word "polite", which she deliberately emphasized. Her slightly angry attitude made the pets around her feel a familiar sense of fear, and their bodies trembled slightly.

The soldiers who acted as human shields were dead. The elven girls next to Alia knew what they should do without being ordered, and they all walked ahead to explore the way.

Sergeant Giri had no one to protect him, so he quickly stood up and followed Alia closely.

Perhaps to give himself courage, or perhaps to ease the embarrassment, he kept talking as he hurried along: "Sinister demon apostle!"

"You've already been discovered by the Saint Lady, yet you still want to play dead. You're such a coward!"

“Lady Saint! That damned fallen man killed so many of our soldiers. When we catch him later, we must first torture him with instruments of torture. We must not let this beast go easily!”

As if trying to redeem his embarrassing image, Sergeant Jiri followed Alia, constantly belittling and insulting Gu An to show his tough attitude that he was irreconcilable with the demon apostle.

He muttered for a long time, very noisily. Even though Alia said nothing and her aura became colder and colder, she couldn't stop him from bragging tirelessly.

the man.

They are indeed a bunch of hypocritical things.

Alia was already a little angry, and Sergeant Giri was still chattering. If she didn't want to keep an "audience" to publicize her glorious deeds, she really wanted to press this annoying fly to death on the rock wall.

There are so many annoying bed bugs.

Luca really found a good job for me.

Alia's face was grim.

The bugs she cursed in her heart were not just Sergeant Jiri, but also the monsters hiding deep in the cave.

From the unexpected trap that had just appeared, she had concluded that Sergeant Giri was a complete waste and had no information about the monster cave at all.

Traps are hidden, and the goblins' strength may also be overstated.

But Alia still didn't take these monsters seriously.

Because she had just used the skill [Guidance of the Goddess] to check the entire cave, she was already aware of the strength of all the monsters.

There are only six goblins here with the strength to fight, and the strongest one is only level 35, which is completely within our control.

snort!
What kind of apostle of the devil is this? He is just a frog in a well with a name. With just this little strength, he dared to kidnap Luca and even used traps to deliberately provoke her!

I will wait and charge deep into the cave and make this arrogant bug experience the pain and torture as the price of offending the elves!
Alia's eyes were deep and cold, and she was already planning in her mind how to "play with" Gu An when she caught him.

As someone blessed by the goddess, insight is her greatest advantage. With this, she is absolutely confident that she can take Gu An's head.

In fact, she could have done so when she entered the cave and saved the soldier who had just died.

However, the goddess' special skills can only be used a limited number of times each month, and she doesn't want to waste it on exploring.

Soldiers are the cheapest resource.

But she didn't expect that Sergeant Jiri was really a complete waste. After three days of siege, he couldn't even grasp the complete information of the monster cave.

When the soldiers died unexpectedly, she realized that the intelligence that Sergeant Jiri had assured her with was wrong. She had to waste a [Goddess Skill] to examine the strength of the monsters in the entire cave to confirm that there was no threat in this crusade.

Alia was chosen by the goddess to become a saint of the clan. She has been through many battles and is definitely not an emotional vase.

After she used the [Goddess Skill], she immediately realized that the goblins were lurking in various passages, forming a double team, and even discovered the invisible ghost goblin.

Although this does not pose any threat, allowing the goblins to act separately and attack from both sides will make the originally easy battle become slightly complicated.

Having absolute confidence in her own strength, Alia was thinking about how to quickly eliminate all monsters in the easiest way.

That was why she deliberately revealed her extremely insightful information to the Demon Apostle, in order to induce Gu An to abandon the encirclement plan and gather all the goblins together for a head-on attack.

This way she wouldn't have to worry about other goblins taking advantage of the chaos to escape from the cave after killing one goblin, thus saving her a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Just by revealing a loophole through a trap, Alia completely took the initiative of the battle back into her hands.

There is a reason why Luca admires her sister so much. This elven saint is much stronger than all the enemies Guan has ever faced in terms of strength and combat sense.

If Alia lived in the world that Gu An once lived in, she would definitely be a "strategic game master" who was no less than Gu An.

"stop!"

After walking a distance forward, Alia suddenly stopped and stopped the pet that was exploring the way ahead.

"Lady Saint, what's wrong?"

"Have you discovered a monster?"

Sergeant Giri was just talking big, but as soon as Alia's voice sounded, his true colors were exposed. He staggered with fright, and then nervously protected Alia in front of him.

"Everyone get out of the way."

Alia did not respond to the useless snack next to her, but asked the pets that were stopped in front of her to make way. She calmly took out the bow and arrow behind her and aimed at the depths of the dark cave.

The apostle of the devil.

Nothing more.

With her terrifying insight, even from a distance of a hundred meters, Alia noticed that the five goblins had gathered together.

A cunning degenerate?
It's just a big worm with some clever tricks.

The monster fell into the trap as expected. Alia's eyes were full of pride, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing the charm that only a queen could have.

"At the end of the sun and the moon, the source of light, the loving goddess who rules the world, please grant me the power to hunt down demons!"

Alia chanted the magic words and pulled her exclusive weapon [Holy Feather of Light] to full strength.

The light was bright, and a golden arrow condensed out of thin air between the two fingers that were pulling the bowstring.

With the continuous infusion of magic power, the obscure symbols on the [Holy Feather of Light] bow suddenly seemed to come alive, dancing lightly around the arrows like elves.

"Whoosh!"

Alia placed her fingers lightly, the bowstring vibrated, and the golden arrow shot out, like a bright meteor, instantly lighting up the dark passage ahead.

Under the light, nothing can escape.

The holy feathers swept past, leaving nothing to escape.

This arrow seemed to really destroy everything!
