Without any hesitation, the team members immediately followed captain Elena and ran to the top of a sand dune on the left.

Seeing that the humans started to move, the group of carrion monsters immediately launched a pursuit and followed closely behind. A few carrion wolves in the front row quickened their pace, trying to rush over and carry out the attack.

Noticing that several undead monsters were accelerating behind them, the three team members responsible for covering them decisively turned around and raised their automatic rifles to shoot at them.

Bang bang bang——

The bullets fired pushed back the few carrion wolves that appeared.

If the rifle bullets of the three players at the back are exhausted, the three players in the middle of the team will take over the task of covering, allowing them to take this opportunity to change the magazines, and take turns to repel the ones from the front row.

Immortal monster.

In this way, the joint investigation team moved to the top of the dune while shooting to repel the undead monsters that wanted to attack, keeping the two sides at a relatively safe distance.

Soon, Elena and her group occupied the dune highlands, giving them the advantage of shooting range and observing their surroundings.

Eight people formed a circle and fired wildly at the group of rotting monsters below. Sometimes they would also throw wooden-handled grenades at where the undead monsters gathered to blow them away.

The other two people in the circle are responsible for loading bullets into the empty magazines to ensure that there will be no interruption in shooting.

Hundreds of carrion monsters surrounded Elena and her party under the sand dunes.

However, due to the relatively low terrain, they need to attack from above, which has certain disadvantages.

Moreover, it is difficult for them to use their best attack - pounce, which is to jump high and pounce on the enemy, and then attack the vital parts.

The battle lasted for a period of time. Facing the strong fire counterattack of the joint investigation team, the group of carrion monsters under the dunes suffered heavy damage, and more than half of them were annihilated.

This is the huge advantage brought by advanced thermal weapons.

During the battle, a team member grabbed the tab at the end of a wooden-handled grenade, pulled it sharply, and then threw it hard.

With a loud bang, the grenade exploded above the group of carrion monsters, knocking down many enemies in an instant.

At this moment, another wave of undead monsters came from the distance. If they joined the remaining carrion monsters originally under the sand dunes, the number should be more than two hundred.

Not only that, a group of black spots also appeared in the northern sky, and a group of flying undead monsters were flying quickly towards the battle site.

Seeing this, the team member hurriedly reported to Elena: "Captain! A new wave of undead monsters has appeared, both on the ground and in the sky."

"hateful!"

Glancing at the group of undead monsters that were coming, Elena couldn't help but curse: "It seems like the other party wants to keep all of us here."

"Captain! We don't have many bullets left!" Another team member responsible for material management also reminded loudly.

The situation now is really dire. It is only a ten-man team, so naturally it cannot carry too many bullets. We are outnumbered and will be wiped out by the undead monsters sooner or later.

Quickly thinking about how to deal with it, Elena then gave new instructions to the team members.

"The Templar Knights from the Holy Kingdom of Caleb, after running out of bullets, use long swords to fight. At the same time, they pay attention to the undead monsters on the ground and in the sky, and protect the warriors of the Kingdom of Dawn to ensure that they can continue to output firepower."

"Understood!" everyone responded.

As soon as the bullets in the magazine were empty, the four Templars, including Elena, threw their automatic rifles to the ground, immediately drew their swords and fought, feeding all the remaining bullets to the other four elites of the Kingdom of Morning Light.

Soldier.

The firepower output was instantly halved, putting the joint investigation team's battle situation in danger.

Although there are Templars with strong melee abilities, there are so many undead monsters that cannot withstand the attack that it is really difficult to deal with them.

During the fierce battle, a team member who was loading bullets into the magazine suddenly noticed a snowflake falling from above and falling on his sleeve.

Looking up, the team member suddenly discovered that it was snowing here!

"Captain! It's snowing!" he reported quickly.

Hearing this, another team member couldn't help but tremble, and while shooting at the undead monster, he complained: "No wonder I felt so cold just now, the temperature seems to have dropped a lot."

"But it's summer now!" The third team member immediately pointed out the doubt, "Why is it snowing?"

Indeed, it is now a hot summer. Even if the temperature difference between day and night in the desert is large, it will not snow in summer, let alone it is not night yet.

Swinging her sword to chop off the head of a carrion wolf, Elena took a few steps back to escape the battle. Then she raised her head and looked to the north, and found that it was also snowing there. The further north, the heavier the snow fell.

Moreover, at the junction of the Mark Desert and the Arctic Icefield, more undead monsters emerged than before, covering a large area of ​​darkness, with an incalculable size and quantity.

"That should be Kazitu's magic."

Elena speculated: "In order to create suitable environmental conditions for the undead monsters to move around, he took the initiative to cast a super-large magic that could change the weather. Wherever the undead army passed, it was winter."

"What?!"

Hearing this, the elite soldiers of the Kingdom of Dawn were deeply shocked. They didn't expect that Kazitu was powerful enough to forcibly change the weather. It was really outrageous.

Raising her sword to kill a carrion crow that swooped down from the sky, Elena reminded sternly: "Don't be distracted! Keep fighting!"

"yes!"

The elite soldiers of the Kingdom of Morning Light quickly focused their attention on the carrion monster in front of them. They had not even dealt with the battle in front of them, so they should not think about other things.

Phew——

At this time, a horse's neighing sound came from the southern sky.

It turns out that the Pegasus that Elena summoned before has arrived. It is trying to break through the obstruction of the flying undead monsters in the sky and get close to its master.

"Captain, we probably won't be able to leave."

One of the team members took the initiative and suggested: "You can escape alone on the Pegasus. You must escape back to Red Sand Fortress to report the matter."

"Captain, please run away quickly and don't worry about us."

"The last hope for our joint investigation team is the captain."

Other team members also said similar words. They were mentally prepared to die here and were no longer afraid of death.

Elena also knew that they were unable to annihilate the group of undead monsters under the dunes, and only death was waiting for everyone ahead.

Raising her hands to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, Elena choked and said, "I will never forget you."

As the captain, she must make the right decision quickly, and there is no extra time to hesitate and think about whether to do it or not.

Then, Elena put two fingers into her mouth and blew a sharp whistle.

Hearing the whistle, the Pegasus in the sky immediately launched a charge, forcibly breaking through the siege of flying undead monsters, and flew above its master.

After all, Elena is a Pegasus knight, so she still has the corresponding skills.

She grasped the reins accurately, turned over and mounted the Pegasus, and then drove the Pegasus to accelerate towards the south.

In response, the group of flying undead monsters in the sky quickly divided into groups to pursue them.

The act of abandoning her teammates and escaping alone made Elena feel that she was guilty, but there was nothing she could do about it. On the way to escape, she raised her hand to wipe away her tears several times.
Chapter completed!
