Chapter 3: Go with us
“Hey?” Xuelu turned her head and looked. Sure enough, the two-legged dragon was attacking the warrior and archer restlessly. The warrior was knocked out again and hit a big tree with his back. Fortunately, warriors are usually thick-skinned and tough; thus, he is very resilient in fights. He shook his head and got up again, saying loudly, "Jike, take the seriously injured Xuelu and leave… I’ll hold this d*** two-legged dragon…."
The archer named Jike said, "You might die!"
The warrior roared, "I can escape, probably."
At that moment, a familiar voice rang in the ears of the fighters and archers, "Gorda, Jike, keep fighting! My injury has already healed.”
“Huh?” The warrior known as Gorda and the archer known as Jike turned their heads simultaneously and looked at Xuelu. The two saw Xuelu standing alive and kicking, with her left hand intact, as if the serious injury hadn't happened. It seems to be true. They couldn't help but be shocked.
The slight shock almost killed them, and the two-legged dragon swooped down. Fortunately, Xuelu threw a fireball, which forced the dragon to fall back, saving them.
Xuelu shouted, "Don't be shocked. Keep fighting. This gentleman cured me. He is a priest."
“Hey? Hey? There is a priest?” The two men were overjoyed. Gorda raised his shield to block the next attack of the two-legged dragon and said loudly, "That's amazing, Mr. Priest. Thank you for the healing Xuelu. Can you join us to deal with this two-legged flying dragon together? Afterward, we will divide the reward into four parts and give you one part too."
Since they took the initiative to invite him to the team, Robb no longer had any concerns, and he could finally move with confidence. With a wave of his right hand, a soft light enveloped Gorda. The internal injury made by the two-legged dragon healed instantly, and he felt a massive rush of energy. This is indeed a genuine priest, such a powerful healing technique. It feels like he has a huge reservoir of magic power.
With such a powerful priest behind him, he isn’t afraid of the mere two-legged flying dragon anymore. Seeing that the dragon swooped down again, Gorda yelled, and the shield in his left hand moved forward and blocked! This time it easily stopped the dragon's impact, and with a counterattack, he stabbed the two-legged dragon’s belly.
“Haha.” Gorda roared, “Jike, Xuelu, shoot! I will focus on protecting the priest. We will slowly wear down this two-legged dragon."
“Okay!” Jike’s shoulder injury was also surrounded by a holy light and healed instantly. He was overjoyed and hurriedly drew his bow to release two arrows. The two powerful arrows accurately shot into the eyes of the two-legged dragon. It was so painful for the dragon that it raised its head and hissed.
Xuelu once again chanted the magic, “Loki, the God of Flames, please listen to my request and temporarily lend me the power of flames…. Fly, Bird of Flames!” A flaming bird flew from the tip of her wand and hit the dragon’s chest.
The three of them were able to fight vigorously, and they felt safe and happy with the priest.
But Robb wasn’t happy. Their attack power is terrible. They hit the dragon repeatedly for several rounds, but he was still alive. At this rate, they had to fight till the year of the monkey.
The one you hit isn't tired, but I, the one watching you guys, is tired, really tired!
Moreover, isn’t this just the dragon blindly attacking and consuming his power while playing stupid? The dragon’s eyes were worn out. Wouldn’t he abandon his nest and run away? What are you guys going to do? The dragon doesn’t even have any IQ!
Robb shook his head and suddenly stretched out to block Gorda like an old hen protecting her cub, then he stepped forward and stood in front of him. "Get out of the way. I'll take care of the dragon."
"Why?" exclaimed Gorda. “It’s dangerous, priest! Don��t step forward. If you fall, we’ll never be able to beat this two-legged dragon.
The archer, Jiku, and the magician, Xuelu, were also startled, and both rushed forward at the same time, trying to get ahead of Robb, an instinctive reaction of any offensive profession.
Protect Daddy!
Robb shook his head and raised his hand high with his palm facing the sky.
By this time, the two-legged dragon struck him violently, with a sharp gale on his paw, which, if this claw grasped firmly, the priest would definitely be torn in half on the spot.
“Danger!”
The three people behind yelled in unison and rushed forward together.
At this moment, Robb’s hand slammed down. “20 yards in radius, Holy Nova!” (A yard is a unit of imperial length, and one yard is equal to 0.9144 meters. It is widely used in various Western Fantasy games. As a unit of measure for the scope of skills.)
Sacred Nova is high-class magic of the Holy element, which likewise requires someone who holds a high-rank Holy class. It can restore the hp HP (Health Points) of all teammates in a large area and cause damage to enemies within the range.
I saw a golden sphere in Robb's palm at the center, expanding in all directions, thus covering the range of 20 yards n an instant. Gorda, Jike, and Xuelu were bathed in the golden light at the same time. The holy light that they were bathed in gave them a very comfortable and reassuring feeling.
However, the two-footed flying dragon did not feel as comfortable anymore. It felt power, holy magic hitting its head, and its power was even higher than that of the flame explosions, and flaming birds that were thrown by the female magician just now. This magic is way more terrifying, piercing the magic resistance of the two-legged dragon in an instant.
It hissed and fell straight towards the ground, with a loud noise and splashing dust everywhere.
Gorda, Jike, and Xuelu all looked astonished and forgot to speak for a moment.
After a long time, until the dust dissipated, Xuelu shouted out, “Oh my God! The two-legged dragon is dead. It’s dead… one blow! And the Holy Nova spell hasn’t even ended, my goodness.”
"My God, what kind of magic is this 'Holy Nova' spell?" Gorda also exclaimed, "As far as I know, the Sacred Nova is too large, and the holy element is scattered within its range, so its power is very weak. Usually, it's only used to deal with very weak and low-level monsters or to disperse the undead. Why can your Holy Nova defeat a two-legged dragon with a single blow?"
Robb, of course, can't say that he has fully maxed his proficiency in all holy professions. Even the highest-ranked holy profession, 'Pope,' has been maxed. In the beginning, to max the proficiency of 'Pope,' he spent a lot of money. It took a full two months to charge holy nova in a monster pile like a robot. How can it not be powerful?"
He could only spread his arms and say, “Maybe I’m just very religious.”
