The hunting group in Reyes's long house didn't have enough people, so it wasn't moving fast.
It took ten days to arrive at [Auroville Central Prison].
From a distance, it looks like a strange five-pointed building, with part of it collapsed. From the appearance, it looks like a huge five-pointed star formation.
"Commander, a cursed space was discovered in the ruins over there. It covers a very large area. The assessment is S+, the energy fluctuation is S+, and the space is stable."
"The building should be a prison. It is initially determined to be a large complex cursed space. High-level professionals are requested to cooperate in the investigation."
"It has been proven that the entrance to the space is temporarily inaccessible and requires special opening conditions."
""
Due to the fierce fighting for several days, most of the original team of four to five hundred people was lost, leaving fifty or sixty injured soldiers. The vanguard of the Cross Society was almost completely destroyed, and the elite troops brought by Reina were also destroyed.
The losses were heavy. Of the more than ten second-level professionals in the team, six were left.
Even among the three members of the supervising team who had never participated in the battle, several members died one after another, and the inner city military sent new ones to replenish them.
No one can evacuate until the mission is completed.
Looking at the black steaming space vortex on the prison ruins in the distance, everyone had despair on their faces.
They have never seen such a large space entrance.
The only good news is that within a certain range of the cursed space, there are usually no aberrations or abyss monsters.
Not long after,
An old man wearing rune light armor led the exploration team back.
The old man is naturally the only third-level professional butler Anthony in the team.
Due to the shortage of manpower, second- and third-level professionals had to personally lead teams to explore dangerous routes to reduce casualties.
Anthony discussed the investigation situation with the person supervising the team.
Those guys used military communicators to report the information to their superiors as usual.
The team camped on the spot
Because there were not many survivors, the team members chose a sturdy building that was easy to defend and built a ring camp using robotic arm equipment and armor.
Now that they heard the order to set up camp, everyone began to take out their marching tents from their backpacks and began to set them up.
Anthony found Lena who was setting up her own tent.
Her personal maid also died in the three-day battle. The eldest lady does not need anyone to serve her now, and is doing everything by herself.
Anthony reported in a heavy tone: "Miss, the entrance to the cursed space is temporarily inaccessible. It should be a space that requires special triggering conditions to enter. Marjorie's team is trying to crack it."
"knew."
Reina looked very calm after hearing this, and did not stop her work of setting up the tent just because she heard the news.
Anthony looked at the changes in his young lady, and his eyes flashed with relief, but then he also expressed his worries: "My lady has initially determined that it is a 'T-class' space. This time, we may not be able to get through."
"Um."
Hearing this, Rena stopped for a moment.
But she seemed to have been mentally prepared. Her tone was firm but indifferent, and she said: "If it is really T-level, there is no point in testing it in batches. After finding a way to enter, I will personally participate in this exploration this time."
Anthony glanced at her with a complicated expression, "Yes, Miss."
They all know very well,
No one can disobey or escape the orders of the Duke's Palace.
If you don't continue to explore, you will definitely not survive even if you escape, and it will definitely affect the entire Jiulindun family.
Lena had been mentally prepared for the entire army to be annihilated from the moment she set out.
This moment will come sooner or later.
Reina did not forget to comfort the loyal old housekeeper, "Grandpa Anthony, maybe the situation is not that bad."
"Why"
Anthony sighed slightly, turned around and left without saying anything.
But at this time, Reina thought of something and turned her head to look at Mr. Zorro, who was setting up a tent in the corner. He had always been very lonely.
After thinking about it, she walked over and said hello: "Mr. Zorro."
"Zorro" responded: "What's the matter, Miss Rena?"
The full-face gas mask on his face was very rough and mechanically modified, and his appearance was not clear at all. His voice sounded hoarse through the canister.
"Thank you for taking care of me along the way."
Reina bowed to Enzo. She knew very well that Zorro had taken great care of her along the way.
Otherwise, in the battle with the third-level [three-headed giant python] a few days ago, she would have been seriously injured even if she didn't die. At that time, Butler Anthony was restrained by the monster, and all his personal guards died in the battle. If it weren't for this assistant,
Mr. Luo, she was burned to death by the corrosive gas sprayed by the monster a long time ago.
Sure enough, my aunt said he was very powerful, and he was really very powerful.
After bowing, Rena continued: "Mr. Zorro, what I want to tell you is that after I find out how to enter the cursed space, I will lead everyone inside to enter. You are not a contracted member of our family, and there is no need to come with us.
"
"No, you don't have to be so polite."
Zoro shook his head, and his tone didn't sound as serious as Reina's, "After all, Senjo-sensei asked me to take good care of you."
"You have done a good enough job, thank you very much."
Reina thanked her sincerely again and told the truth, "But you don't have to die with me."
After hearing this, Zoro shook his head and seemed to be laughing, "No, what I want to say is that even if I want to leave, I can't."
After a pause, he said meaningfully: "Besides, I have no intention of leaving."
"???"
When Reina heard this, she looked suspicious.
She was about to say something, but at this moment, a rapid report came from the communicator.
"Miss, there is a large group of people on our left approaching us quickly to see the flag. They are members of the Clark family!"
"Miss, there is also a group of people coming to our right, they are from the Oliver family!"
As soon as this was said, the whole camp became tense.
The ruins of Dawn are already very large, but dozens of teams are also clearing the wasteland at the same time. In fact, the distance between each team is not too far apart.
As for Lena's team, the lottery number is number 16, the Oliver family is on the 15th, and the Clark family is on the 17th.
Although there is no one visible due to the fog and ruins, it can be seen from the sound of gunfire and the sound of fighting that several teams are not far apart from each other. Like divided cakes, the closer to the core city, the closer the teams are to each other.
The distance between them will be closer.
In fact, a few days ago, Reina and the others discovered the movements of the two teams on the left and right.
Those families have recruited enough people, and they can divide them into several waves to open up wasteland, and the progress is very fast.
The hunting team is in front, and the main team of young masters and ladies is behind.
And just a few minutes ago, in the team of the Oliver family, which was several kilometers away from Rena's team.
Young Master Danze was leisurely enjoying afternoon coffee in the tent.
Compared to the fierce fighting on the front line, although they also suffered some small-scale monster attacks here, it was nothing to do.
After all, there is also the vice-president of the Hunting Guild, the famous third-level professional "Wind and Thunder Sword King" Nero Redgrave.
Since being attacked by Su Lun last time, Danze has never dared to stay too far away from this third-level professional.
He and the bearded swordsman were drinking coffee, playing chess on a black and white checkered chessboard, and chatting.
"Mr. Nero, what do you think of the strength of the SS wanted criminal Su Lun?"
"Hard to say"
"Hard to say?"
"I carefully observed the previous sneak attack, and Su Lun's real strength was only at the ordinary second-level level. But the displacement ability of his eight-armed spider spear in the ruins was outstanding. Even I couldn't catch it if I wanted to.
easy"
"Just being able to run."
"It's not that simple. Now that it is confirmed that the guy is related to the people from the reactionary organization, it cannot be underestimated. Besides, if you didn't notice, then the guy hasn't demonstrated his second-level advanced ability?"
"There are only a few advancement options for the puppet master. That guy is not very old, but he is so proficient in puppet control skills. At the eighth level of his professional ability, he chose the direction of 'puppet control skills' to advance. After all, you know it.
,Puppet manipulation requires a lot of time and energy to practice."
"Well, that makes sense."
"In my opinion, the SS wanted criminal Su Lun just relied on the scythe of the forbidden object in his hand to carry out his crimes. That guy was really lucky. He actually mastered the secret art of living corpse sacrifice that can avoid the backlash of the curse of the forbidden object.
.However, now that I have completely stabilized the second-level realm and mastered this [Steinitz's chessboard], if Su Lun comes again, I can guarantee that he will never come back."
"Although I think Master Danze, you should be more careful. But with this cursed object and your cooperation with the [Puppet Theater], there is really no reason to lose against a second-level professional."
When Danze heard this, a smug smile appeared on his face.
The two were chatting, and at this moment, a subordinate came to report.
"Master, there is an order from the Black Tower, asking us to send people to help the team in Reyes Changfang open a large cursed space."
When the two of them heard this, their expressions changed.
Danze turned around and said, "Mr. Nero, are you interested in going and taking a look?"
"certainly."
Nero narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Since the Reiss's side has offended, it must be eradicated. Now that the Black Tower side has acquiesced in your behavior, Miss Lena and Old Anthony must not let them
Leave the ruins alive. Otherwise, there won't be such a good chance next time. That guy Carnegie Reyes is very strong. He survived such a split last time. I really hope he can't be completely destroyed this time.
.No matter how weak the sick tiger is, it will still be a big trouble."
Danze smiled and said, "I think so too."
Reina has also known for a long time that the advance team of the Clark family on the left has far surpassed their team in land reclamation progress, and has been keeping people's attention.
Now these guys have suddenly changed their route, obviously they have bad intentions.
Sure enough, not long after, a hunting team of several hundred people came out of the mist in the distance.
Looking at the family crest engraved on the equipment, it is clear that they are the elite team of the Clark family.
The young man who heads the Clark family and is wearing a brand new hunting suit is naturally the eldest young master, Eli Clark.
The young master looked at the dozens of remnant soldiers like Reina, and his tone was full of teasing: "Hey, Miss Reina, it seems that your situation is not very good?"
The visitor obviously had bad intentions. Butler Anthony had already been protecting Lena. He looked at the three bodyguards around Young Avery, his pupils shrank slightly, and he said: "Miss, be careful, that's the Old Lingdun Occult Association."
The three elders of Ice, Thunder, and Earth are very powerful elemental warlocks, and they also have powerful cursed objects in their hands. With their cooperation, I am not sure that I can take advantage in a short time."
There was an archer holding a blue longbow, a woman in a robe holding a thunder-marked staff, and a strong punk man with green hair.
The three of them all had an outstanding aura, and the weapons in their hands were all extraordinary.
Reina glanced up, turned to look coldly at the group of people approaching in front of her, and responded: "What are you doing here?"
Avery led the group of people and walked over in a swaggering manner, saying lazily: "I received a notice from the top of the Black Tower that you may not be able to handle this cursed space, so I will bring someone over to help you take a look."
Originally there was no need for him to come in person, but now that it sounds like it's Reina's team, this Young Master Avery will naturally come to add insult to injury.
Reina frowned slightly when she heard this. She glanced at the three white-helmeted combat supervisors not far away, seemingly asking.
The black-faced team leader responded calmly: "The orders from above are only to supervise your land reclamation. We will not interfere in or interfere with matters between your families."
After saying that, the three war supervisors deliberately distanced themselves some distance, as if to express their attitude: If you fight, don't accidentally hurt us.
I didn't expect these people to mediate. When Reina heard this, she shouted: "Everyone obeys the order. Anyone who comes near the camp will be shot to death!"
After giving the order, both sides set up their guns almost simultaneously.
"Crack, click, click" was the sound of intensive gun loading.
The number of people is nearly ten times different, and the Clark family has an absolute advantage.
Young Master Avery seemed completely unafraid of the guns pointed at him and signaled his men to put down their guns.
After all, in this situation, even if the opponent shoots first, they have no chance of winning.
He looked at Reina and continued to challenge: "Hey~ Miss Reina doesn't seem to be in a good mood."
It seemed that it was agreed upon. As soon as the Clark family arrived, Oliver's Danzig also came out with his team.
The young man Danze looked at the two groups of men at war with each other and gloated: "Tsk, tsk, it seems it was not a coincidence that I came here?"
Next to him, there was a girl with heavy makeup who looked very similar to Rena.
Astonishingly, it was Betty Reyes, the second wife of the Reyes family and the fiancée of Danzig.
This time I wanted to bring down the long house, and this man also played a big role.
She looked at Reina and gloated: "Sister Reina, long time no see."
The two teams totaled nearly a thousand people, and they were all enemies.
In the current situation, it seems that Reina and her group may not be able to enter the cursed space and will be destroyed outside.
Young Master Aili pressed forward step by step and said, "Miss Reina, do we want to talk now?"
Reina looked at the enemy who was already fifty meters away, without any fear, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
Gunfire rang out.
The bullet hit Avery's feet, and white smoke came out.
Lena held up the gun and said calmly: "If you get closer again, the next shot will be your head."
Probably because they had predicted the bullet's trajectory, Avery's bodyguards didn't even raise their eyelids.
Although Ai Li was frightened, the sneer on his face was even worse. In a blink of an eye, he looked at the group of guards around Reina and said an intriguing sentence: "If you don't want to live, don't you think about your subordinates?"
?”
As soon as these words came out, it seemed like some kind of secret code.
At this moment, the second-level captain named Preet Keith suddenly led more than a dozen of his subordinates to distance themselves.
Seeing this, the old butler Anthony shouted loudly: "Plit, what are you doing!"
Napreet looked at Reina and said: "Miss Reina, I'm sorry. I have paid a lot for the Rais family, but I don't want to die here."
Obviously, these people were bribed.
At this point, there is no need to continue undercover.
Whether it's the cursed space in front of us or the predicament here, staying in the team in Reyes's long room seems to be certain death.
With that said, they walked out of the constructed camp with guns on guard.
There weren't many people in Reina's team originally, but now there were more than ten people missing, and the gap in the camp's defense immediately appeared.
The most critical thing is the blow to morale. Once these people leave, the eyes left behind are filled with resentment and despair.
The old butler Anthony wanted to kill the traitor, but he was surrounded by coveting enemies and did not dare to act rashly.
Lena didn't say anything, nor did she change much as the situation got worse.
Her hand holding the gun remained steady and unshaken.
At this time, not far away, the sarcasm in the eyes of Young Master Avery became even more intense, and he asked again: "Now, has Miss Reina changed her mind?"
The situation of the eldest son of Reyes, at this moment, has fallen into a desperate situation.
Reina didn't turn her head to look, and said calmly to the remaining guards around her: "If there are still people who want to leave now, I won't blame you."
She knew very well that the other party came to destroy Reyes' long house.
Surrender? Nothing will happen except being humiliated.
After a pause, she said decisively: "But if you stay, prepare to fight to the death with me!"
Upon hearing this, the morale, which had been low just now due to the rebellion of the cadres, suddenly boiled over.
The guards gathered around Lena, looking like they were about to fight to the death.
"Miss, we won't leave!"
"I swear to live and die with my family!"
"Yes! I swear to live and die with my family! Fight to the end!"
""
The crowd was excited, and the momentum of dozens of people was like a blazing fire. They were stunned to contend with the nearly a thousand enemies surrounding them.
And the old butler Anton seemed to have unlocked some secret technique. Suddenly, horns appeared on his head, his bones crackled, and his size skyrocketed into a humanoid goat nearly two meters tall with bulging muscles.
Looking at this group of people, the masters from the Oliver and Clark families across from them frowned, and even the third-level professional "Wind and Thunder Sword King" Nero looked solemn.
He looked at the old goat whose momentum suddenly surged. He didn't know what he thought of, and murmured: "Anthony, the "Devil Goat", was the champion of the old Lingdun Fighting Competition twenty years ago. This state is really long time gone."
