Alyssa lightly slapped her nose with her hand, and a low coughing sound came from the dust. That was Jita's voice.
Luo Yu was pulling a corpse out from under the ruins, making the sound of gravel rolling down. He pulled off the corpse's turban and took a look, revealing a gray and lifeless face with dark skin, unshaven beard, and a swollen forehead.
A line of blood dripped down, and he stared at the ceiling with empty eyes.
And a wisp of black light was rising from under the opponent's skin, like smoke, quickly blending into the mist. With this scene, no more evidence was needed.
If these people are not blind followers, they are at least Dragon Cultists—unless Corin-Ithurion has a third type of dark faith.
Luo Yu let go of the body and looked at Fang Plover, who said to him: "Stop looking and let's go."
The silence spell blocks the sound, but it cannot stop the vibration of the solid body - after leaving the range of the silence spell, the rock will transmit the low sound waves far away. By now, the entire fortress should know that something happened on the lower level. The silence spell is just
In order to make the other party misunderstand what happened next and where exactly it happened.
The other party's choice is to send people down to investigate first, or to escape from this place immediately? Fang Yu guessed it was the former. Going up is the endless desert. The princess's guard in Tansnier Port has been mobilized. These people can still escape.
Wherever he escaped, he was just a 'target' for the Falcon and the Scout Construct in the desert.
Fang Plover walked through the ruins and gave orders to everyone:
"Alyssa, Parker, you go to the front."
"Little Fatty, pick up a few remote professions and go to the front."
The direction of the door has long since disappeared, leaving only a large hole behind which, filled with smoke and dust, is a walkway.
Everyone walked forward through the big hole, but there was no clockwork goblin or something else coming from the front of the aisle as Fang Plover expected, so the rangers of Rufu's Shield were of no use. But after walking for a while
, they met a group of guards unexpectedly in the corridor.
That encounter came very suddenly, and the opponent was stronger than what Wu Xiaopang had described, indeed at level 20 or above. Miss Nightingale only discovered the approaching guard at a very close distance.
When we meet side by side, the moment we discover it, it means there is no way to avoid it——
The first person to start the fight was Alyssa, who reacted instinctively and threw the dagger in her hand, like a dark light, but the leading guard waved the scimitar in his hand, knocked the light aside, and pulled it on the wall.
There was a long streak of fire.
Next, the rangers of Rufu's Shield chose to fire. They were behind Alisa. In the narrow environment, they could only choose magic short bows. However, at levels above ten, the soft arrows could not penetrate the opponent's airtight target at all.
Defense.
Seeing the desert swordsman holding a machete reaching back, Fang Pli couldn't help but remind him: "Be careful!"
The opponent took out a throwing ax from behind and threw it forward with force. Miss Nightingale stepped aside, and the rotating ax flew past the tip of her nose, but hit the shoulder of a Rufus Shield Ranger behind her.
The person fell on his back with a cry of "Ouch".
"Help!"
Fang Plover shouted lowly.
Luo Hao quickly dragged the man back with quick eyes and hands, then raised a large shield with one hand, and then with two muffled sounds, two flying axes were inserted into his door panel shield.
At this time, Parker also set up his crossbow and started to fight back. The first crossbow arrow he fired hit a ball of sparks on the man's scimitar. Although it did not hurt the enemy, it also caused the opponent to take a step back and stop.
At this time, Alyssa also jumped up, rolled to a corner, and recalled her dagger with one move.
A flash of lightning flew back to her in the darkness, and a muffled groan came from the guard. This mysterious move indeed injured the opponent.
After a round of tentative fighting, both sides had their own gains and losses.
But the other side obviously saw that this side was not as powerful as them, and after shouting an unknown local language, six or seven people raised their scimitars and rushed towards them.
"Get out of the way!" Fang Yu shouted to Luo Hao at this time.
This new member of the Seven Seas Brigade is not a casual person. He didn't look behind him at all, but he understood it and decisively put away his big shield and stepped aside.
The guard over there was confused when he suddenly saw a flash of fire in front of him - a muffled sound was followed by a scream. He subconsciously raised the scimitar in his hand to block it. When there was a deafening sound, a huge force came from
The message came back from the blade - it is not uncommon for a level 20 strength warrior to have more than 200 strength, and the explosive power is even more amazing, far beyond the comparison of people on earth - on earth, some people believe that he is a superman.
Therefore, the opponent's sword actually blocked the cannonball. Although his arms were numb from the shock, he still cut the cannonball in half diagonally and damaged the alchemical fuse inside.
The cannonballs flew to both sides, knocking the person next to him away without any reaction.
But after blocking this blow, the leading guard himself took seven or eight steps back. The huge impact not only made him lose his balance, but also lost his ability to think. And in his dark brown pupils, the next moment
More flashes of light were reflected. The next cannonball hit among the people, and immediately a flash of fire flashed and a loud bang was heard. Fang Yu, standing more than ten meters away, immediately felt flying sand and rocks rushing towards his face.
He squinted his eyes and saw a scimitar being blasted out from that place, whizzing straight towards him.
But it didn't hit Fang Plover, but hit the shield with a faint blue light flashing at the edge, then bounced upward and hit the ceiling, leaving a white mark with a loud sound.
Fang Plover is not stupid, so he naturally knows what it means to fire in this place. Although the shoulder-mounted artillery of the Mares Knight is not as good as those real weapons, it is still very threatening in a narrow space.
, so before he fired the cannon, he had already deployed the shield of the angel.
When the smoke and dust dissipated, the battlefield was already in a mess, and not even a few intact bodies could be found. At such a close range, the sharp shrapnel was enough to beat people into pieces.
The Mares Knight is a level 19 structure, but the artillery is not used at such close range, and in a narrow and specific environment, its power is actually much better than normal.
However, this walkway was built very solidly, and after the explosion, there were only a few small holes on it.
The rescued Ranger of Rufu's Shield was not seriously injured. The flying ax hit his right shoulder, but he lost little blood. This kind of wound has almost no effect after the trauma is treated with holy magic. Of course, the right hand will definitely not be as flexible as before for a period of time.
.
Fortunately, the people of Rufu's Shield were not originally considered the main force, so the weakening of their combat power was almost negligible.
However, after this battle, it also means that they are truly exposed, and there will probably be several fierce battles to come - and these 'knights' are not in a state of combat readiness. Most of them only have one or two rounds of artillery shells prepared, which is only enough for two rounds.
Just shoot.
Therefore, Fang Plover has to carefully calculate his consumption.
"Actually, they also found some spare ammunition." Luo Hao took back his shield, turned around and whispered to him.
Fang Yu shook his head: "Those prepared bombs are substandard products, and there are not many of them, only a dozen or so."
"It doesn't mean it can't be used if it's not qualified. Don't forget that we have two alchemists. Captain Luo Yu can help identify it."
"But reloading this gun requires special tools, and manual reloading will be very troublesome."
"Let the people from Rufu's Shield help. They are useless in such a battle anyway. We divide these magic structures into two batches, one for filling and one for combat, so that no time is wasted. And
After all, fighting in such a narrow space does not require twelve volleys."
Luo Hao thought for a moment and replied. After experiencing two battles, he obviously realized the role of these 'knights'.
Fang Yu thought for a while and felt that the other party's proposal was really feasible.
After this battle, everyone never encountered the enemy again.
The corridor finally leads to a natural underground cave. It makes people feel that this place is really big enough. There are so many military structures stored in the warehouse outside. It is difficult not to doubt that there are no hidden objects in this huge cave.
Wearing something.
But after all, they are not here to hunt for treasures, and if they find it, there is no way to take it out. The allusion of a snake swallowing an elephant because of the lack of people's hearts will not happen to professional selectors. Everyone - of course, mainly Fang Plover, or points
They need to understand their priorities at the moment.
It's just that the surroundings have been as quiet as ever, which makes people wonder - the other party really escaped?
Calculating that they met more than ten guards, a merchant group must have more than this number of guards. However, Fang Yu thought of their encounter in Tansnier Port and felt calm. He always felt vaguely in his heart that something was wrong.
It's definitely not that simple.
What's more, there is a team behind them. Even if the smuggler in front really escapes, the guards behind them will have no place to escape, right?
As they walked, Fang Plover suddenly wrinkled his nose and took a sniff.
He didn't know whether he was sensitive to the smell of blood or because of something else, but he felt like he could smell a trace of blood coming from the front. He looked at the others - the others had no reaction. He didn't know what the reason was, but maybe
Somewhat related to Blood of the Dragon King.
Because if I think about it carefully, I have only changed in this aspect in the past few months.
It can't be said that mastering ancient alchemy will make his five senses sharper, right? Besides, he doesn't have sharp five senses yet, but his eyesight is better and his sense of smell is stronger.
However, when he smelled this trace of blood, Fang Yu did not feel uneasy, but felt a little at ease——
It's finally here.
"There is something ahead." He reminded everyone.
Miss Nightingale was slightly startled and turned back to look at him curiously.
But suddenly there was a rustling sound in the darkness, like something crawling on the ground. Everyone looked in that direction, and soon someone gasped: "What the hell is this!?" The person who spoke did not
Not a member of the Seven Seas Troupe, but a member of Rufu's Shield.
What appeared in the darkness was a group of creatures that looked like skinned hounds, with long limbs standing on the ground, but the bloody body did not give people a sense of beauty, and it had no head, and the broken neck was covered with snow-white fangs.
, and a long tongue dripping with blood hangs out of it.
It can be said that Luo Yu, Jita, Parker, Alyssa and others have all seen this thing. Although it is slightly different from the monster in Tansnier Port, the difference is only a slight difference. From the appearance, at a glance, it is
It can be seen that it is the work of blind followers.
Everyone in Lufu's Shield heard gasps one after another, obviously they had never seen this weird thing before.
But Fang Plover wasn't too scared.
If it weren't for the last raid, this thing didn't actually show much power, and it wasn't even as good as the guards who came before - the really scary thing about blood servants is that they are contagious.
A blood plague will break out in an area.
In Aitaria, there are not many ways to directly kill a person, but the Blood Plague is at least one of them. Although almost this 'plague' has long since disappeared, in the limited documentary records, the indigenous people
When talking about this epidemic, everyone's expression changes.
But each of the Primarchs of the Blood Servants is very precious to the blind followers. How dare these guys let these 'Primarchs' attack them?
Or are they already preparing thousands of blood servants?
Fang Plover immediately shook his head.
Blood Servants come from living people, and it is not possible to make a Blood Servant by killing a person. A real Blood Servant needs to be transformed by Descartes himself. Without ten, or even dozens of sacrifices, Blind Eye
How could the god waste his power on this?
There are thousands of blood servants, how many people need to be sacrificed?
It's impossible to think about it. Even if Tansnir slaughters the city, this number may not be enough.
He raised his head, and blood servants were appearing continuously in the darkness, and soon there were twenty or thirty of them. However, he did not find that there were guards behind these blood servants, which was even more strange.
.The Blood Servant's own combat power is very average. It can scare ordinary people, but it poses little threat to adventurers above level 15.
How arrogant is the other party to think that this blood servant can pose a threat to them?
It would be a more reasonable choice if the opponent sent guards and attacked them under the cover of these blood servants.
However, this idea only flashed through Fang Pliong's mind. He raised his hand, pointed it forward with his hand like a knife, and said to everyone:
"Don't worry about these things, I'll cover you to launch the attack."
"Pay attention to their tongues, that's their true nature."
After that, he shouted in a low voice:
"Fire!"
A golden light bloomed among the group of monsters.
…
And this battle, just as Fang Yu described, did not last long, and was not even as intense as the previous battle between them and the group of guards.
Due to a lack of wisdom, the Blood Servants suffered heavy losses after a round of volleys - and after the people from Rufu's Shield went up, they discovered that although these things looked ferocious, they were indeed strong on the outside but capable on the inside - of course higher than them.
It is higher, but in a three-on-one, two-on-one, or even two-on-two situation, it is difficult for the Blood Servant to gain the upper hand against the adventurers.
After all, there is cooperation between people. The combination of a warrior and a priest is much more reliable than the combination of just two warriors.
Not to mention the other members of the Seven Seas Brigade, Alyssa single-handedly defeated the three-headed Servant of Blood.
She's not the one who has killed the most.
Apart from Fang Plover, Parker is the king of heads in this battle. This guy actually prepared a box of holy crossbows. The arrows enchanted by the ether of light are the real thing for dark creatures like the Blood Servant.
A big killing weapon, and Parker's level is not low, he can almost kill one arrow with one stone.
On the contrary, Fang Plover, because he has been wary of any ambush by the blind followers, has not taken full action. Whether it is an angel or a knight of Mares, they have kept a group of them as a reserve team.
Always be ready for battle.
But what surprised him was that until the last moment of the battle, even after the last blood servant fell to the ground, the expected enemy reinforcements did not appear.
Did the other party really give up resistance and run away?
That's why they threw out these blood servants to abandon the soldiers to protect the commander?
But he felt that if he were put in another person's shoes and he was in the position of a blind follower, he would definitely instruct the guards to die, instead of the 'original' Blood Servant who was more important to the blind follower.
Fang Yu couldn't help but be filled with doubts for a moment——
