Chapter 5 The Chase

When looking at the approaching female warrior, Rogue compelled himself to calm down. There was simply no way to escape. Regarding fighting, there was always only one outcome when a low-level warrior faced a low-level mage in a one-on-one battle. Although Rogue couldn't clearly see Qiwei's strength, he knew there must be at least seven or eight levels. Even if the other party was just a level three warrior, judging from her fully armed appearance, she could definitely handle himself who only had one magic ring with ease. For now, only by luring her into his small building and relying on those mechanisms could there be a certain chance of winning.

Rogue had made up his mind and began to look around, preparing to make a run. Behind him was a ruin, and many poor people had built shabby shacks among them. Going forward through the alley and then walking another five hundred meters would lead to his small building. Unfortunately, Qiwei was blocking his only necessary path.

Rogue retreated to the entrance of the alley and stood still, starting to chant a spell. Qiwei stared coldly at Rogue, dragging the great sword behind her and waiting for Rogue to finish chanting the spell. A flash of red light emerged between Rogue's hands, and two magic missiles flew towards the female warrior and hit her chest right in the middle. With two bangs and pings, a flash of blue light on the female warrior's breastplate flashed and then vanished, and Qiwei was unharmed. Rogue shouted loudly to chant the spell of the Flame Finger, and a stream of flame shot out but was again blocked by the blue light of the breastplate. Obviously, this was a magic defense armor. Even if it was the poorest quality, it would still pose no problem in dealing with Rogue's magic.

Cold sweat trickled down Rogue's head, and the fat on his face was shaking. Just as he was about to chant the third spell, the figure of the female warrior suddenly vanished. In the next moment, Qiwei had already appeared in front of Rogue, and the tips of their noses were almost touching. Rogue only felt a great force coming from his abdomen, and even with his strong physique, he couldn't bear it. With a wow, all the three meals of today were vomited out. Qiwei then smashed the hilt of the sword on Rogue's back, knocked him to the ground, and kicked him fiercely several times. Rogue was already bleeding from his nose and mouth. Qiwei kicked Rogue over with her foot and said maliciously, "Weren't you very fierce? Wanted to get on me, didn't you? Come on, let me see how much capital you have and whether you can satisfy me!" Saying that, she stepped on Rogue's crotch, and the leather boots inlaid with silver trampled brutally.

Rogue's entire face instantly turned the color of a pig's liver, and he couldn't even shout out. His hands tightly grasped the female warrior's boots, futilely attempting to move that foot away. Qiwei, with a cruel smile, stomped heavily a few more times before releasing her foot. Rogue gasped for air loudly and rolled desperately while clutching the injured spot. From time to time, one or two moans could be heard. Qiwei looked at this fat man covered in blood with disgust and spat, "What? Can't handle it after just these few times? Are you even a man? I still have many means that I haven't used yet! Today, you will have to endure them one by one."

The female warrior put aside the great sword and suddenly saw Rogue staring at the depths of the alley behind her, and a glimmer of joy emerged in his eyes. Qiwei sneered and thought to herself that with just this little trick, he also came to deceive her. Nevertheless, she still turned her head, pretending to be deceived, wanting to wait until Rogue attacked herself or ran away to catch him back. "These stupid nobles have never had anything new."

There was a soft buzzing sound behind her, and Qiwei immediately sensed that something was amiss. There was a sudden sharp pain in her buttocks, and a short crossbow bolt had already completely embedded itself in the snow-white skin. The female warrior had a very short skirt armor around her waist, and Rogue shot from the bottom up, plus Qiwei's tall figure. This crossbow bolt really wasn't in a proper place.

Qiwei was both ashamed and furious in her heart. She grabbed the great sword and intended to split this despicable fat man. When she turned around, there was a tremendous pain at the injury site, and Qiwei immediately saw stars. Then the injury turned into numbness. Evidently, there was also medicine smeared on the arrow. When she reached out to check, there was only a handful of blood, and the short crossbow bolt had already completely entered the flesh. Qiwei took a deep breath, shouted, and suddenly a faint white glow flashed all over her body, and then vanished. Rogue was horrified in his heart. This was battle energy! Before the anesthetic smeared on the arrow took effect, it was still hard to say whether he could save his own life.

Although Qiwei temporarily suppressed the drug's potency with battle energy, she couldn't free her hand to pull out the arrow. Besides, the despicable fat man was right in front of her, and she couldn't pull out the arrow at that place either. It was better to finish the fight quickly and deal with him first. At this time, Rogue, who had already stood up, began to chant a spell again, and a thin stream of flame shot over. Qiwei didn't dodge or avoid and accelerated forward. Just as that stream of flame reached her body, Rogue's eyes suddenly shone with a sharp light, and Qiwei's breastplate along with the undergarment inside was suddenly lifted up by an invisible hand, and the flame burned up.

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

The sudden feeling of having the sensitive part burned, even Qiwei with her extraordinary strength couldn't bear it. She let out a scream and squatted down in pain. After Qiwei recovered a bit, she immediately put down the breastplate to cover it up. This humiliation made her lose her senses. Just then, Rogue suddenly pounced up, punching and kicking. Although there wasn't much orderliness, he was agile and powerful, showing no sign of being a mage or being injured at all. Qiwei was greatly surprised. After blocking a storm-like attack, she was about to fight back. But Rogue rushed past her and ran away in a panic.

Qiwei almost fainted from rage. She gritted her teeth and ignored the pain to chase after him.

Rogue zigzagged ahead and ran to a small building. He opened the door and slipped in. "Okay, let me know your lair. I'll see how you can run!" The female warrior charged forward and kicked down the door, but felt dizzy and the wound on her body became more painful. Qiwei took a deep breath, and the cool night breeze made her mind a little clearer. At this time, there was the sound of something like tables and chairs being knocked over in a panic on the second floor. The rage in the female warrior's chest flared up again, and she rushed up the stairs to the second floor.

The female warrior jumped up. As soon as the right toe touched the stairs, there was a "click" and that stairboard collapsed. Qiwei was not flustered at all. She kicked the left foot in the air and her figure rose instead of falling. Afraid of more ambushes, she pointed the great sword at the stairs and her figure continued to rise. Two crossbow bolts shot through the air. The female warrior swung her sword to knock them down but broke a thin line that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. There was a flash of lightning, and a lightning trap on the nearby wall was activated. Qiwei was in the air and couldn't dodge, immediately being electrocuted until her whole body was numb and she fell to the ground. Fortunately, the power of this trap was not great, and she was also wearing a set of magic defense equipment. After being dizzy for a while, she was okay.

Hearing the triumphant and ugly laughter coming from the second floor, Qiwei gritted her teeth and rushed up again. Just after rushing past the corner, there was another loud crash. The female warrior immediately saw stars and flew backwards, heavily falling to the ground. It turned out that a transparent energy barrier had been placed here. The trap, after this heavy impact, flashed a few times and lost its effect. But Qiwei also fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a while.

The female warrior barely supported herself with the great sword and walked down the stairs. "In this damned small building, who knows what else there can be. For now, I can only let this bastard go first, and wait until tomorrow to set this pigsty on fire." The female warrior thought resentfully.

A cloud of black mist drifted past, and the skeleton "Fengyue" blocked in front of the female warrior.

Rogue was also having a difficult time. His magic power was exhausted and he was seriously injured. Summoning Fengyue was already his last ability. He sat slumped on the second floor, observing the battle situation downstairs. It was still relatively safe here. At least if Qiwei intended to rush up, there were still three traps awaiting her. Fengyue seemed to be somewhat different from before, with a rusty knife and it seemed that the ribs were also complete.

Qiwei perked up, and the great sword slashed obliquely at the neck of Fengyue. Fengyue raised the rusty knife to block it. The female warrior utilized this force to make the great sword draw an arc gently and slashed at the neck bone of the skeleton again. The skeleton couldn't parry in time and raised its left arm to block it, but how could it block the heavy sword? With a crack, the arm bone was chopped off. Fengyue swayed and fell down and remained motionless.

Qiwei snorted coldly. This useless thing could still employ some undead magic before, but unfortunately it wasn't very effective. Only one skeleton could be summoned. Qiwei stepped over the skeleton on the ground and walked towards the door.

Suddenly there was a sound of wind behind her. Qiwei knew it wasn't good and squatted down suddenly, holding the great sword upright behind her. With a clang, a rusty knife chopped heavily on the great sword. Before the female warrior could react, she was kicked hard on the wound on her arm. Qiwei looked back and saw that it was the skeleton "Fengyue". She couldn't help but gasp. Could a skeleton feign death?

Qiwei felt for the first time that this small building was gloomy and terrifying.

Rogue was also stunned.

There was another chaotic battle between the female warrior and the skeleton. After all, the gap in strength was too vast. Qiwei gradually gained the upper hand. Just when she was about to completely shatter this skeleton, there was another cloud of black mist. It turned out that Rogue, seeing that the situation was not good, sent Fengyue back.

With a "bang", Qiwei felt dizzy again. Before losing consciousness, she vaguely saw that fat man holding an iron rod and looking at her with a hideous smile.
