The blood is still warm - the battle to expel the Devil's Rift Chapter 13: The fighting style of gun users

Kalin stood on tiptoe slightly to check the bulletin board where the mission was posted without being seen, and to collect any auditory information from the surrounding area about recruiting a rearguard team.

Although the bulletin board can be seen, the characters are very small and basically cannot be seen clearly. However, the above tasks should not be much different from the ruins discovered before. They are mainly area exploration type and a small amount of cleanup type.

As for the recruitment requirements of other teams, there is no need for guards. Most of them require exploration professions, such as scouts, and of course, spellcasters, which are always in short supply.

And since Carlin's hearing is sharp enough, many teams will probably extend an olive branch to him.

At this time, Carlin discovered that one of the teams had an acquaintance of his, and the configuration of that team was quite reasonable. [Ah, if you know someone, that should save you a lot of trouble. Then leave it to him.]

With this thought in mind, the rabbit man greeted his acquaintance and then moved towards his team.

Lelan Will is a guy who is good at using daggers and long-barreled dwarf muskets. He taught Karin the special method of making gunpowder. This man can be completely trusted, both in terms of ability and character.

However, Lailan was not the captain, but the captain of this team immediately invited Karin to join the team. He is a warrior who is proficient in two-handed swords, and there is also a young female magician in the team.

"It's Will, how have you been lately? Hello everyone, my name is Carlin." Carlin said a straightforward greeting.

"Laylan, it's perfect for you to get to know this person." After the captain said this, Lailan nodded. "It's not bad. I completed a small commission yesterday to warm up, and I'm in good shape today. This is our Purple Rose Mercenary Group.

The captain, you can call him Janelle. There is also the shy little girl over there, whose name is a bit hard to pronounce. She is from another place."

"Hello." The young magician wearing a hat stood up and said hello with a very delicate voice.

"Hello." After a simple greeting, Carlin looked at the captain who invited him to join the team. "Sorry, I looked over unconsciously when I saw an acquaintance. My name is Carlin. I am used to using firearms. Nice to meet you.

you."

"It's not a big problem. How about it? We have set a pretty good regional exploration commission. We have also prepared enough holy water. Do you want to join our team temporarily?" Janelle took out a commission.

"It's a great honor. As long as it's not a core front-row position, I should be able to do it. You can rest assured to assign it." Carlin took the commission with his right hand and looked at it.

In area b, rooms 32 to 37, the threats are unclean creatures and mechanisms in varying numbers. The reward is 60 Lindsays. The unclean creatures, mainly skeletons and corpses, are too restrained for ordinary firearms.

, but Lailan developed a new type of bullet that can restrain unclean creatures.

[Are there unclean creatures... and mechanisms? I wonder if I can hear them by sound?] Carlin thought for a while and nodded, no problem. His abilities can be considered to cover the needs of the team. As for the issue of bullets, when the time comes

It's not too late to discuss it with Lailan. "I don't have any problem. Although the monsters here are troublesome, there is still no problem in covering other people, and it will not affect my investigation."

Carlin expressed his opinion. If the captain has no special request, he is ready to discuss the price of ammunition with Lailan. "Do you have any other instructions? I will discuss other matters with Lailan later."

Then the team was temporarily disbanded. The little girl who was called Sauron's spellcaster was going to buy the medium for casting spells and the materials to make the evil amulet. Ganal went with her. She will go on a mission early tomorrow morning and meet at the ICBC. "You guys, wait a minute.

Let’s chat slowly.” Ganal, who had a straightforward personality, walked away with the little girl who had only spoken to him so far.

"Laylan, have you come up with new results?" After the others left, Carlin went over to chat with Laylan about his research results.

"Of course, I have only made twenty of these bullets in total. Half of them have been returned to the Church of the Holy God of Glory, and the remaining half can be used as a powerful weapon against unclean creatures."

"Are you so powerful? Are you interested in selling some goods?" Carlin proposed to the other party half-seriously.

"If you want to buy it, I will sell you two pieces at the cost price plus labor fee, up to two pieces. You know, the success rate of making this new type of alchemical item is very low."

"Okay, I know you love your children. Do you have anything else to prepare? I plan to go to the market later." Karin asked.

"It's nothing, but I have to fine-tune it when I go back today. After all, there were not too many shots yesterday. You can go on your own." Lailan said apologetically.

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow." After Carlin said goodbye to Lailan, he was going to the market to prepare some potions and other things, and to listen to the recent anecdotes.

But he looked around and found that because the Blood Rock Ruins was so popular, the apothecary had raised the price but it was still sold out. This was troublesome, but luckily Carlin remembered a bookstore with few customers. There were disposable ones sold in it.

Healing Scroll.

Due to the special nature of his own equipment, Karin did not rely much on ordinary potions, so he planned to try his luck in the bookstore.

The bookstore owner is a collector of scrolls, but he will also sell them to adventurers in need. There are only two of these scrolls that can have a therapeutic effect, but there are other types of scrolls, and the scroll tubes are given free of charge.

Karin thought for a moment and told the boss that he planned to get one, and then look at other scrolls or books.

"What type of scrolls do you want to see?" The boss only collected less than thirty scrolls in total.

"Can you take a look?" Carlin looked more like he was traveling and shopping than preparing for war.

The boss took out a few more scrolls, among which the scroll with the freezing ray caught Carlin's fancy. This one cost 8 Lindsays, and it had both damage and single-target control. As for group control, it was completely gone, which is why

There is a reason why teams are rushing to get spellcasters.

"Hello, can you take these two together?" He pointed to the healing and freezing scrolls. After all, they are his collection. It's not good to directly discuss the prices like commodities.

The bookstore owner nodded and stretched out his hand. Carlin took out Seventeen Lindsay and handed it over and said, "I will put it to good use. Have you purchased any new goods recently?"

The bookstore owner raised his head and pointed to a bookcase in the corner. "I did receive a batch of old books, and they are not cheap. You can rent them to read." The charging standard is to rent for one day, which means moving a chair to read here.

Twenty paise a day.

There are more than forty new books in total, all of which seem to have been brought out of the Blood Rock Barrier. Excluding those modified from dwarf languages ​​that are incomprehensible to dwarves, there are only three books written in common language.

[It’s okay, I’m not afraid of anything else, I’m just afraid of noise. Just treat it as a leisurely purchase.] Carlin handed over another twenty paise and planned to spend time here. He lacked relevant knowledge and could only pick up the three books.

For books written in lingua franca, first look at the title.

The first book is "Inscriptions". Inscription is an ancient technology of the ancient giants. It is similar to enchantment but does not conflict with enchantment. It is just expensive. But unfortunately, this book explains very little, even the simplest inscriptions.

There is no way to learn from this book.

The second book is called "The Prophecy of the Thundersmith and the Fire God", which is a novel. Although it is written by a dwarf, it is a book that glorifies the history of the dwarves.

The third book is a carving experience given by a mineral dealer and jade appraiser to foreign disciples. This is quite useful. If you have mastered the skills of jewelry cutting, you will definitely benefit a lot from reading this book.

Considering that without notes, the other two books were unlikely to be mastered by him in a short time, so Carlin picked up the book "The Prophecy of the Thundersmith and the Vulcan".

In a grand canyon called Furious Monocent, there are two powerful dwarf tribes-Thunderforged Ax and Fireforged Hammer. They have been in a slightly hostile state of competition all year round. Thundersmith and Vulcan

This is the title given to the Forge Master by these two dwarf tribes.

During the 17th Forging Competition, an extremely hidden man-made plague infected several dwarf tribes. But not only that, humans and elves were also affected by this plague.

The early plagues did not cause the infected to die, but they became extremely weak and required care, and this became the route of infection.

The mid-term symptoms of the plague are loss of consciousness and coma, and in the final stage, they will directly turn into unclean creatures. The number of priests and paladins among the dwarves is too small, and they can only stick to one or two areas.

The great dwarf prophet of the Yunyan tribe spent his life making a prophecy - the raging fire will disintegrate the garrison composed of unclean creatures, and the thunder of the sunny day will kill the necromancy magician who caused all this.

So the two feuding dwarf forging masters picked up the equipment they forged and took the first step to pass it down to the next generation.

The plot of the second half of the book is that the two entered the forbidden area of ​​​​death, each killed a real dragon with their own strength, and then used the materials from the dragon to forge more powerful equipment.

The plot of finding the necromancy magician and defeating the army of unclean creatures is the content of the next book.

Because it was an older book, it was very troublesome to identify the handwriting and convert the grammar, so it was already dusk when Carlin was about to finish reading the book.

The usual closing time of the bookstore has passed by this time, but the bookstore owner did not close the door immediately as usual, but asked Carlin to read the last part.

At the end of the book, the blacksmith Vulcan found a dwarf technician and worked together to create a creation called gunpowder, and made a huge chain spear. When it hit the dragon, he suddenly tightened the chain to control the dragon.

As for the process of gunpowder explosion, I'm afraid Carlin knows it better than the dwarfs and dwarves who first created gunpowder. After all, it was many, many years later, although I don't know how many years exactly.

"Ah, are you closing? Sorry, I've finished reading now." Karin, who was slightly sleepy, stood up and carefully put the book back. After thanking him, he made sure that the scroll tube was properly tied to his belt.

After Carlin left the bookstore, the boss locked the door and went home. Most of the shops were not closed at dusk, and they would not close until some time after the sun set and the moon came out. The Rabbitman decided to visit a weapons or armor store before going back.

Things like pickaxes may need some replacements.

Karin walked into a shop specially prepared for adventurers. There were many strange weapons and armors in it. Don’t worry about the weapons for the time being. These armors were made of scales strung from the scales of zebra monsters. They were sewn from the furs of wolves.

Animal skin armor, and chainmail armor made of bright steel ore that can always shine.

There are also some new consumables, such as lubricants that are specially used to maintain firearm triggers, monocular eyes that use alchemy to assist in finding enemies, and fuel blasting tanks that are more powerful than blazing glue... Unfortunately, he doesn't want to buy these.

.

"Ah, let's go back and meditate after dinner." Karin was not too disappointed, after all, his needs were always a bit strange.

After a windless night, the four people met up as usual and set off on the second day.

After using the rope ladder to descend to the bottom of the deep valley of nearly 30 meters, the mercenary industrial company had already opened an entrance using spells that affected earth and stone buildings. There were even some adventurers setting up stalls at this entrance to sell various supplies and their previous gains.

of trophies.

When you enter the place, you can see that in addition to the outer walls being made of stone, the internal floors, ceilings and walls are all made of metal. This huge amount of metal alone is of great value. There is lighting inside the ruins, and there are many lights on the walls.

The giant inscription emits an unsettling crimson light.

Not knowing what the captain was planning to do, Carlin just glanced at the items in a hurry. He saw Lairen and Janelle making simple gestures and making eye contact, and then brought himself and the magician Sauron in to clean up the items.

And confirm the safe channel.

Area a is the top level of the ruins that has been completely cleared. After reaching area b on the next level, the four of them followed the marks, passed through the circuitous stairs and several rooms that had already released traps, and arrived at one of the unexplored areas.

According to speculation, the road below leads to the dwarf workshop area or the smelting area. Kalin entered a state of combat readiness, and his red eyes flickered slightly as he began to adapt to the dim ambient light. He shook his rabbit ears slightly and then retracted them.

In order to avoid being hit by grenades during the battle, he began to listen to the surrounding movements - but the tail was not good. It was unheard of for Carlin to retract his animal ears and go to unknown places. At least he had not heard of any Asians.

Humans can put away their animal characteristics.

"Sauron, don't accidentally break the holy water." Since the crimson light was not very bright, Lailan reminded the magician.

"I, I understand." Although her expression was natural, the little girl still seemed a little nervous, or was she startled because she was suddenly spoken to by Lailan?

Janelle checked the marks on the wall in front of her and said, "Everything is ready. The area ahead is the one we need to explore."

"Yeah. If you're ready, let's start. I'll stop if there's any movement in a while, and it might be sudden." Carlin took out the Nirvana in his right hand and held in his left hand the weapon that accompanied him throughout his career as an adventurer.

A small buckler intends to go in front.

"I'm at the front, Karin is behind me, and Lailen is last." Janelle did not take Karin's suggestion and held the sword on his shoulder responsibly, and slowly pushed open the heavy iron door.

After all, he was not a heavily armored warrior, so Karin followed closely and stepped onto the downward stairs. As he moved downward, the crimson light seemed to become deeper and deeper.

Sauron's left hand is a short wooden staff, and his right hand is on the edge of his belt. Lairon's other hand holds the recoil stabilizing buckle, which is a new accessory he added to the long barrel musket. The two of them also walked along Ganai

Follow your marching route, maintain your formation, and move inwards.

[I hope that girl has heard gunshots at close range...] Carlin concentrated on listening, and his thoughts inevitably wandered.

A small sound of gears rolling appeared at the corner of the stairs. Fortunately, Carlin reminded Janelle in time, and a heavy large iron arrow pierced into the wall. Then the team avoided several more traps, and found a path with a hundred

The passage that was 3 feet long, 30 feet wide and 10 feet high encountered five skinny dwarf ghouls with eyes glowing with green fire.

The equipment of these unclean creatures is also very strange, some holding battle axes and large swords. The next two are armed with long-barreled muskets and long metal staffs inlaid with crystals, and the last one is equipped with an iron chain net and a hook.

combination.

"The green soul fire is a B-rated unclean creature. Open your mouths. The sound of the gun is very loud in this area, although I tried to silence it as much as possible." Lailan pointed at the one closer to the wall in the back, which may be

The caster's dwarf ghoul fired the first shot. The roar of the musket hit the unclean creature on the shoulder, and he staggered back and almost lost his grip on the long staff in his hand.

"Pay attention to the noise! ​​I'm going to shoot too!" Carlin aimed at the unclean creature that Lailan attacked, and shot another shot to reduce the opponent's firepower. This shot was very accurate, and the head of the dwarf ghoul was blown to pieces in one go.

On the ground, the fire of the soul also extinguished.

After the attack, Karin raised his shield and took a stance, ready to receive the enemy's attack. At this time, Ganal accelerated and rushed over. He took a big step with his right foot before approaching the enemy and reached the middle of the enemy in an instant. Then he paused with his left foot and struck.

The force caused his body to rotate, and the sword he grabbed with both hands instantly hit the remaining four enemies.

Although the four dwarf ghouls were all severely injured and their soul fire swayed, the dwarf swordsman then hit Ganal hard with a disproportionate weapon.

Although this attack was dodged by Ganal keenly, it was also the first time for Karin to see another combination. The unclean creature at the end had a large hook in its right hand that looked more powerful than a war hammer up close.

At this moment, it threw the iron chain net with its left hand that tripped the enemy to Ganel's feet, and then pulled it hard. Fortunately, Ganel jumped up to avoid it, and then the guy used a big hook to hit the heavily armored warrior in the air.

Stretched over.

Fortunately, the hook only broke off Janelle's armor. There was no blood on the hook, so there should be no injuries.

The dwarf axeman who was in the front attacked Karin, but before he was attacked by the tomahawk, the bunnyman immediately raised his gun and shot his arm.

This shot not only broke the dwarf axeman's hand but also instantly shattered half of his foot. The unclean creature fell to the ground and never stood up again, and its soul was slowly extinguished.

Sauron, like other magicians, killed the dwarf musketeer with a blazing flaming arrow, and finally Laeran killed the great swordsman with one shot.

"Are you okay?" Lelan went over to check on Ganal's condition. In addition to the damage to the armor, there was also a little bruise. Then Sauron summoned a beautiful spark to ignite the bodies of these dwarfs that still had some dry fat. Magic

After making sure that these unclean creatures would not stand up, he used magic to pile the loot that had not been burned to ashes on the ground.

Now, several people's ears are still ringing a little, especially Carlin's. After all, this kind of terrain is not suitable for muskets.
