(I feel that the fantasy color is much stronger. But this is Middle-earth after all, so combat should still be based on martial arts and spells. Although this can be regarded as another world of swords and magic~~~~~~)
As the Great Escort Agency that stands at the pinnacle of the mortal world, Yang Wei Escort Agency naturally has a lot of business and the scope is wide. It can even handle big tasks that require cultivators and mages, not to mention escorting a middle-aged man named Qin, which is not difficult.
The task is high and the task completion rate is quite high. Of course, the price is higher than that of ordinary escort agencies. However, for the sake of safety, many businessmen are still willing to hire a strong and reputable escort agency like Yangwei Escort Agency.
"Since the official is so enthusiastic, I promise you that no matter how hard I try, I will protect the safety of the official and his family." The saying that eating people is short of mouth and taking advantage of people is short-handed, even for a middle-level escort head like He Lin.
It's not like you can get a "Devil Talisman" casually, let alone the middle-aged man who took out dozens of them at once. So after a brief surprise, he immediately made a solemn promise to the middle-aged man.
"Along, Ahu. You two protect the official Qin family and don't let them get any harm before they fall. Do you understand?" He Lin turned around and waved to a place, calling two burly men with portable guns.
The big man with the iron sword gave serious instructions.
"My subordinates understand!" Aaron and Ahu solemnly agreed, then stood beside the middle-aged man named Qin and his family, guarding them carefully.
"Along and Ahu are my right-hand men. They have mastered the Kuangsha Sword Technique to the point where they can unleash their sword energy. They are considered masters in the world. I feel relieved as long as they protect you." He Lin said to the middle-aged man surnamed Qin.
The man said, "Be careful, I always have a bad feeling when I look around." After saying that, he picked up the Huanshou Dao and secretly used Qinggong to walk towards the woods on one side. As he walked, he used the knife to strike the grass and shrubs in front of him.
The call was made very cautiously. Several people from other patrolmen around the area also cooperated to search several densely forested areas. The remaining people formed a complete formation around the convoy to guard the convoy.
Seeing the other people being cautious, the middle-aged man surnamed Qin felt relieved and wiped his sweat. If it weren't for the fact that this batch of escorted goods was relatively valuable, he would not have been willing to let Yang Wei Escort take action. Because although "Demon Demons"
"talisman" was widely circulated, but the actual production materials were still in the hands of the imperial court and those cultivation sects. Although other ordinary people knew that many materials could be exchanged for "devil-proof talismans", they did not know which ones could actually make "devil-proof talismans".
Material.
Therefore, after he accidentally learned about some of the types of materials for making "Devil-proof Talisman", he spent a lot of money to collect a batch in order to make his batch of goods more valuable when trading with Daming Temple in the future.
After making a lot of money, it is easier to win the favor of the Daming Temple. ("Demon Talisman" is always in short supply, so its production materials are also more favored by cultivation sects and the court.) He has spent almost all of his wealth on
You must not make any mistakes in this regard; this is an adventure. If it succeeds, it will reach the sky in one step. If it fails, it will lead to an abyss. Because he attaches too much importance to the gains and losses of this time, he can't help but think of the consequences of various successes and failures in his mind.
Time stood still.
Just when he was thinking wildly, he heard a foreman suddenly shouting, "Monster! It's a tree demon and a wolf-filled demon. Be careful of the big trees and bushes around you!"
The big tree as thick as a person slashed hard and then swung a ball of sword light, covering a bush next to it.
A strange thing happened. The big tree he chopped down shook violently. Immediately, a thick layer of dark green wood armor appeared to block the incoming knife. It could have cut an ordinary tree into two pieces.
The attack could only break through the surface of the wood armor, and the bark cracked, leaving behind a dark red liquid that smelled like blood and healed quickly. The next moment, the crown of the tree suddenly stretched out seven or eight long branches.
The long branches with tiny fleshy thorns were drawn towards the walking hand; at the same time, several branches on the trunk also activated into ugly claws and grabbed towards the walking hand. And below the trunk, it was as high as a person.
An ugly face appeared in the area, and one could vaguely see the facial features, a "woo woo" cry coming from the mouth, and an evil light flashing in the eyes.
An ordinary tree turned into a terrifying monster in an instant!
Tree Demon: Originally an ordinary human tree, it was contaminated by the power of the demon world leaked into the human world and absorbed the filthy air from the ground, so it mutated into a living tree that can prey on all living creatures that are close to it. It is omnivorous when it is unable to prey.
It also absorbs the spiritual energy and demonic energy of heaven and earth to grow. It has strong vitality. As long as the roots are not dead, even if most of the body is destroyed, it can absorb the spiritual energy and nutrients and regenerate. The skill is that after activation, hard and powerful branches and tough and flexible rattan can be torn apart.
It crushes and grabs the prey and then pierces the prey with the fleshy thorns of the branches to absorb the flesh and blood. Its weakness is that it is afraid of fire and can be purified by the power of the Yang attribute.
When the tree demon launched its attack, a black shadow emerged from the bushes that were shrouded in sword light. The sword light struck the black figure, and there was a golden and iron-like clash of sounds. "Ouch!" A strange wolf howl sounded as the black shadow collided.
After breaking through the sword, the ball of light fell on one place. It turned out to be a strange creature that was half a man tall and had brown hair like a wolf. From its red eyes that shone with bloodthirsty and anger, it could be seen that this creature was extremely dangerous.
It is not a docile herbivore. The sharp knife left only a shallow wound on its body, which has already begun to close and heal, showing its extraordinary defense and vitality.
The Wolf-Growing Demon: A carnivorous beast-demon in the Demonic Forest, which moves quickly, has a vicious temperament, is bloodthirsty, cunning and has no spells, but has strong lurking ability and can hide in shadows and shrubs. It is an excellent predator and is even more dangerous.
They live in groups! Compared to wolves in the world, their relatively soft waist is also their weakness.
Hearing the warning from the thief and seeing the appearance of the tree demon and the wolf-filled demon, Lin's face changed as if he had seen something terrible. He immediately shouted loudly, "Don't be obsessed with fighting. Come on, everyone gather their weapons, get their internal energy, circulate it throughout the body, and activate the demon-proof talisman."
'Let's get out of this forest!" Although some young escorts didn't understand why the escort leader was so panicked, He Lin's prestige among them was very high, so they listened to his words even though they were confused.
At his call, those who were searching around also returned immediately. Everyone immediately shrunk the team and each took out the "Devil-Repelling Talisman", activated it with their own blood, and then attached it to their body. After the "Demon-Repelling Talisman" was activated, the whole body released a burst of soft energy.
The white light integrated into the user's body, making them suddenly feel full of strength. With the help of the "Devil-proof Talisman", everyone opened the way and the carts opened the way and the carts accelerated and ran forward.
He Lin tried his best to stay calm while organizing the team, but he couldn't help but panic in his heart, "It's actually two difficult guys, the tree demon and the wolf demon! Damn it, this is the forest closest to the town! Not that everyone here is
Will the forest rangers clean it up every month? Those guys who neglect their duties have worse eyesight than pigs, and they are so negligent." He thought bitterly in his heart.
"The tree demon is nothing more than that. After all, apart from the towns where mages and immortals are stationed and have purification formations to purify the environment, the rest of the wild has long been polluted by the aura filled with demonic energy. As long as there are trees, mutated creatures like the tree demon will
They keep appearing and cannot be eradicated; but there are also wolf-boiled monsters! Although these guys don't know magic, each of them is more ferocious and thick-skinned than a lion, and they live in groups! Are we so unlucky? This forest has just been recently.
Have many wolf-boiled demons come in after opening the space rift?" He Lin couldn't help but doubt his luck. It's no wonder that other than just encountering a magical beast that traveled through space, it's not enough to explain why in this kind of space that is often cleaned up by human masters
Dangerous monsters such as wolf-growers will also appear in the forest.
As a famous and dangerous monster, various information about the Wolf-Infused Demon has long been published by the "Demon Hunting Guild" organized by the imperial court. More than ten Wolf-Infused Demons can form an exquisite coordination, which is no longer something that mortal martial arts masters can handle.
.Except for those warriors who have comprehended the realm of innateness and have greatly improved the power of their moves, only those cultivators and mages can kill these cunning monsters with spells and magic weapons. In short, the hordes of wolf-filled demons are no longer like them.
A small team was able to fight against it. After the wolf demon failed to succeed, it did not immediately attack again. Instead, it raised its head and let out a high-pitched wolf howl, as if in response to its howl. A relay of wolf howls sounded in the vast forest.
The sound was followed by bursts of rustling sounds from the surrounding branches and leaves, as if a large group of creatures were rushing towards it.
"No, it's summoning its companions!" He Lin, an experienced horse, recognized the actions of the wolf-infused demon, but he was too late to stop it. Listening to the faint movement in the woods, he knew that the worst case scenario it estimated had happened. There were indeed groups of them here.
The wolf-infused demon is too dangerous and must leave immediately!
"Who knows how many of its kind are there in this forest? If they summon a large group of companions and there are an unknown number of tree demons harassing and watching on the side~~~~~~" He Lin no longer dared to think any further.
Now he just wants to take the people out of here before the other wolf-infused demons arrive. Although humans have hatred against demons, even if they take revenge, they have to be self-aware - they can't do it when they are about to die, not to mention he has bodyguards.
The mission is naturally to put safety first.
Under the nervous mood, the team walked very fast. Those slow-moving tree demons could not stop the team's progress. "Well, we are already close to the exit of the forest. We will leave the forest in less than a kilometer. If nothing happens, we just need to continue walking.
You can leave the forest in a quarter of an hour. The wolf demon is a forest monster and rarely leaves the forest to hunt; and outside the forest, you are likely to encounter forest rangers and patrols from nearby towns. They are all teams composed of elite experts. Their mission is to clear out the forest.
The threats around the town. If you leave the forest, you are out of danger!" He Lin looked at the increasingly sparse trees on the roadside and was filled with joy of escaping. Others in the escort team had also been informed by him of what had just happened.
Seeing that danger was in sight, everyone couldn't help but cheer.
Unfortunately, their good luck seemed to have run out. Just as the exit was vaguely visible in front of them, and everyone was rejoicing, several wolf-growers suddenly rushed out from the woods on both sides in front of them, blocking their way. Facing the interceptor team, they couldn't help but
After a pause, almost at the same time, there was a scurrying sound from both sides behind him, and more than a dozen wolf-infused demons rushed out of the woods and surrounded him from three other directions.
He Lin's scalp felt a little numb. One, two, three, four, five~~~Sixteen, seventeen! God, there are seventeen wolf-infused demons! Such a pair of wolf-infused demons is enough to wipe out their team ten times!
"Are you mistaken? You think highly of us too much. We can't bear this 'enthusiasm'." While being "flattered", he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He Lin is worthy of being a middle-level head of a bodyguard agency such as "Yangwei Bodyguard Agency". Faced with this desperate situation, he calmed down after great fear and despair. "Since it has reached this point, then simply fight for it."
Even if the monster wants to eat us, we have to see if you have such good teeth!" He Lin was determined not to let these monsters have an easy time even if the whole army was wiped out.
Fortunately, monsters like the wolf devil are very cunning. In other words, they are very cautious. When they hunt, they do not just swarm them, but like wolves. Especially when they encounter strong prey, they will take into account their own casualties. They will first surround the prey and be patient.
Using siege, ambush, sneak attacks, etc. to consume the strength of the prey, and finally waiting for the prey to be exhausted before attacking with all its strength and succeeding in one fell swoop. This habit is indeed terrible. Unless you have absolute strength, it is really difficult to escape. But in
At some point, this habit of the wolf-infused demon will also become the hope of its prey.
According to their habits, the current wolf-infused demons have formed a seemingly loose but actually tight encirclement, surrounding everyone, shouting intimidatingly, making threatening movements, and putting mental pressure on everyone for a year, always looking for loopholes, ready to take advantage of them.
Come in empty.
"But it's not hopeless. We're almost out of the forest now. Maybe someone will pass by. If we send out a distress signal, people passing by may see it and call for reinforcements. And as long as the wolf-infused demons are not angered to the point of madness, they will not go all out.
By launching an attack, we can delay the attack for a while and hopefully wait until the reinforcements arrive!" He Lin's eyes flashed as he thought, "What's more important is that we must protect the safety of the cargo owner no matter what before we die, and the reputation of Yang Wei Escort Agency"
It cannot be destroyed in our hands!"
After looking at the middle-aged man surnamed Qin and his family who were trembling with fear and hugging each other, He Linxian waved his hands to the sky and a burst of fire burst out from his sleeves. The fire shot into the sky like an arrow and finally exploded in the sky, forming a huge spherical firework that lasted for a long time.
People within a fifty-mile radius can see it if they raise their heads. During the disaster, humans pay more attention to unity. This kind of special help-seeking fireworks has also become popular. If someone is in danger in the wild, just release the help-seeking fireworks and they will be seen by the people around them.
It is easy to get help. Of course, it is also easy to attract the attention of some sensitive monsters, so this is a double-edged sword that most people will not use easily. However, He Lin and their location are around the town. There are not many monsters that threaten them, but humans.
Since his sphere of influence was in a desperate situation, he would not let go of this life-saving straw.
After releasing the distress fireworks, He Lin put his internal force into the Huanshou Saber. As the internal force entered, the Huanshou Saber let out a soft sound. The blade shook slightly and several talismans flashed in sequence. A circle of orange light was released from the periphery. "Dao Gang" This is the internal force.
After cultivating to an extremely high level, the sword energy condenses and evolves into Gang Qi, which is powerful enough to cut iron like mud, break gold and crack rocks; further, it can only be used by innate masters, and it can be used by innate masters, and it can split mountains and split the ground.
For extraordinary!
He looked around at the people around him and shouted: "Brothers, these beasts don't seem to want to let us go, so we don't have to be polite to them. Just cheer up. If anyone dares to come, I'll beat them hard."
Go back! Don’t lose the prestige of our Yang Wei Escort Agency! The fireworks for help have been set off and the reinforcements are here. Everyone, protect your employer and be careful and defensive. Can you hear me?"
"I know what's going on!" "I saved it!" "The boss is wise!" Everyone agreed respectively. They all used their skills to form an offensive and defensive formation to confront the surrounding wolf-filled demons.
In an abandoned pavilion about ten miles away from Yang Wei Escort's team, a young monk who was no more than 20 years old, strong, with thick eyebrows and big eyes was sitting opposite a young man wearing hunting clothes, holding a folding fan, and with delicate eyebrows.
Drinking tea. Suddenly the young man frowned, put down the tea cup, looked at the sky in the direction of the fireworks and frowned: "The fireworks are actually asking for help. Could they be some team that encountered a demon?"
"Since you have met, let's go and have a look. I happen to have itchy hands recently and really want to stretch my muscles." The strong monk said with a smile.
