Chapter 620: The Monastery of the Holy Spirit (II)
Walking around the bend of the mountain road, the three of them soon saw dozens of people dressed as mercenaries facing each other with their swords unsheathed. It was more of a siege than a confrontation, and six or seven mercenaries who looked covered in blood were surrounded by others, back to back, swords in hand, gritting their teeth and looking at the others who had surrounded them. And among them, there was also a teenager dressed in aristocratic attire who looked to be no more than ten years old.
"Maurice! You bastard!! ”
Looking at the enemy in front of him, a tall mercenary trapped in the middle gritted his teeth and stared at a man dressed as a thief standing not far from him. The skinny thief was now sneering, hiding behind a mercenary, playing with a small dagger in his hand, and looking at the man in front of him with disdain.
"I can't say that, Captain, I have my own problems."
"Phew!!"
Hearing the thief's words, the man spat disdainfully, brandishing his long sword, staring at the other party viciously, gritting his teeth, and almost spewing fire from his eyes. He didn't expect that there would be such a traitor in his team. Hearing him speak, another mercenary standing beside the man, holding a long sword and shield, scolded viciously.
"Don't make excuses here, you bastard, if the captain hadn't brought you out in the first place, you little bastard would still be fighting with a bunch of thugs in the dark streets for a bite of bread! Fuck, I'm really blind, why don't you see that you're such an ungrateful thing! “
"That's the one to blame you for your bad eyes, Big Brother Wood."
In the face of the other party's angry rebuke, there was not a trace of remorse on the thief's face. Instead, he laughed.
"Actually, I didn't plan to do this, but who told you to be too useless, after so many years, you can't even mix with a mercenary group, and you can only run errands for this kind of little young master. Don't you feel like a failure? To be honest, I can't stand it anymore. Thankfully, the lord is willing to take you in, of course, if you are willing to work for him——— unfortunately you are not willing to accept his kindness, but this is just your idea, and for me, I have had enough of continuing to wander and bump. ”
"You ..............."
Hear here. The man at the head frowned, he looked at the thief in front of him and said nothing.
Because he was right, he had been a mercenary team for five or six years, although they all aspired to be a real, full-fledged mercenary group. But the reality is cruel, they have worked hard for so many years but still have not been able to succeed, and they are still struggling in disgrace. This time they were commissioned by a noble young master. Enter the Glenber Mountains to look for his missing sister, but he didn't expect a group of people to suddenly be killed in the middle of the way. wanted to hand over the little young master by themselves, and what surprised them even more was that their long-time companion actually chose to turn against the water at this time!?
"I'm going to kill you brute!!"
Perhaps unable to listen to the thieves' cynicism anymore, I saw a tall strong man holding a two-handed giant sword suddenly rushed out of it, and he swung the giant sword in his hand and slashed at the thief. And this strong man did have two brushes, and under his hard blow, he saw that a strong wind pressure suddenly appeared on the giant sword and rushed forward, and under this fierce impact, those mercenaries who were originally in front of the thieves chose to get out of the way. Instead, the thief was revealed. And seeing the tall strong man rushing towards him, the thief's face also showed a little surprise and fear, but his reaction was also quite fast, the moment he saw the other party's figure, the thief shook his right hand, and soon, he saw a dagger fly out of the thief's hand and insert it into the other party's shoulder. But this blow did not make the man hear, on the contrary, at this moment, he was more like a wounded beast, with red eyes and waving his claws, and pounced on the thief like this!
Seeing this scene, the thief's face finally became a little more frightened, but at this moment, no one saw that the mage who was standing behind the crowd, wrapped in a black cloth all over his body, suddenly stretched out a finger, and then, a green light flew from his finger and hit the strong man's arm.
"Woo-aaa
The man who was hit by the green light let out a terrible scream, and everyone saw that the giant sword that was originally in the man's hand was completely melted like butter at this moment, not only that, but even the man's hands began to burst and corrode at a speed visible to the naked eye, just the blink of an eye, but seeing that there was no more flesh and blood on the man's two arms, only Sen Sen's white bones remained. At this moment, the man finally could no longer bear the terrible and intense pain, and his eyes rolled and he fainted.
"Holy Soul is above!!"
Seeing this scene, the faces of the other surrounded mercenaries suddenly changed, and they looked at the mage who was wrapped in black robes in horror, although they still didn't know the name of the other party, but they already knew his identity.
That's a necromancer!!
"Maurice, you're actually in cahoots with the necromancer!!"
"Hey, that's right, Captain."
Hearing the other man's angry shouting, the thief now regained his previous smug smile, and he straightened his clothes, and then looked back at his former companion with a little smile.
"I'm still so young, I don't want to die yet, but if I follow this mage, not only will I not die, but I may even get something that you will never get, which is eternal life! Now that you should know what kind of enemy you are facing, I advise you to obediently hand over that little devil, so as not to suffer for yourselves. And if you're willing to submit to this mage like I do, then I'm not out of the question. ”
“……………”
Hearing this, those mercenaries couldn't help but be silent, and the young man who was originally protected by them looked at the black-robed mage in horror at this moment, his face turned pale, and then. The boy cried out in terror: "Quick, you guys hurry up!" Kill that necromancer! Hurry up, I gave you money, didn't I just let you protect me? Hurry up and kill him for me!! ”
Hearing the young man's words, the mercenaries who surrounded them couldn't help but laugh, and the thief also had a bit of an idiot expression. Glancing at the boy.
"Captain, it's not me who said, you also saw it, what kind of attitude this little bastard has towards you, now that he is dying, he is still like this, I bah, I just look down on him. Why, just because he has two stinky money. Lao Tzu is going to be called and drunk by him like a slave here! I can't stand you guys! I've had enough of this little slut along the way, and I'm going to see if he can continue to maintain his disgusting face in the face of this mage's great spells!! I can't wait to hear his screams! ”
Hearing the thief's words, the man in charge was silent for a moment, he turned his head away, and glanced at the young man behind him with a complicated expression, and sensing the other party's gaze, the young man finally began to become flustered.
"What do you see. Feed! Look at what you see! Hurry up! Kill them! When I hired you before, didn't you say you were very good? How can you shrink back when you meet such a little person now?! Hurry up! ”
“………………………”
Hear the teenager speak. Several mercenaries beside him couldn't help but show a little dissatisfied expression at this time, and the expression on the face of the man in charge kept changing, and after a while, he let out a long sigh, then turned around and raised his long sword. Aimed at the thief in front of him. Seeing this scene, the thief's face changed slightly.
"Captain, you're not playing for real, are you? There's something about this little bunny that deserves your attention! Are you even willing to give your life for him? Why don't you sell your life to this little bastard for a bag of gold? You should know all too well what his attitude is towards us along the way! Well now. What are you doing ...............?"
However, before the thief could finish his words, he was interrupted by the man.
"I know what you're thinking, Maurice, and I'll admit, you're right."
As he spoke, he glanced at the pale young man standing behind him.
"But I'm not fighting for him, and like you said, we don't have to do that. However, we are mercenaries. ”
Saying this, the man seemed to think of something, he lowered his head, and quickly raised it again.
"We are mercenaries, mercenaries, and we do things for money. If we take the money, then naturally we have to do it, and indeed, I can hand him over here, as long as we don't say it, no one knows the way. But I can't do that, it's not my principle........." The man turned his head and glanced at his men beside him.
"You can surrender, this is my insistence, if you are not willing to do so, I will not force you."
After saying this, the man fell silent, but no one around him chose to leave. Soon, I saw the mercenary holding the sword and shield beside him smile and speak.
"Captain, looking at what you said, I can't trust our character too much. It's true that none of us look at that kid well, but if you want us to violate the mercenary's faith and go to be an accomplice to the necromancer, I'd rather die here than do it! ”
"You ....................."
Hearing this, the thief's face sank, he glanced at the silent necromancer, gritted his teeth, and then he stretched out his hand.
"If you don't want to, then die!"
Then, he said viciously as he waved his arm. As he moved, the other mercenaries swung their swords and swarmed forward. Seeing this, a bloody battle is inevitable.
And at this moment, a relaxed and cheerful voice came from behind them.
"Wow, what's going on? PK? Group fighting? ”
On this occasion when a bloody battle was about to begin, such an inopportune voice suddenly attracted the attention of many people, and many mercenaries even turned their heads and looked at the place where the sound came from. Even those who were surrounded in the middle couldn't help but crane their necks and look over. Because for them, this is probably the only chance to get themselves out of the situation!
But after seeing the person in front of them clearly, everyone couldn't help but be stunned, only to see the mountain road standing not far behind them. It was just three young men, one of whom was dressed in aristocratic clothing, but he was empty-handed, and he didn't even have a weapon at his waist. The two girls next to him were the same, they had no weapons in their hands, but wore the same simple and elegant robes and cloaks. It looks like three aristocratic heirs who went on an outing in the nearby mountains. Compared to what they are wearing, the appearance of the three is the more eye-catching part, Rod, naturally, needless to say, although the canary and the little bubble gum are not yet amazing, they are also outstanding, plus the two of them have a completely different temperament from this world, just like a bright color, people instinctively can't ignore their existence.
Seeing these three people, many mercenaries were brightened in their eyes. Then he swallowed a mouthful of saliva involuntarily in an instant. They have begun to fantasize about how pleasant it would be if such a beautiful beauty could be brought over by them to have a good toss. And those poor people who are surrounded by it, the mood at the moment is sinking all the way to the bottom, on the surface, anyone can see that these three people are the heirs of nobles with little combat effectiveness, and I am afraid that they also secretly ran out of somewhere to adventure to play. Look at what these idiots have become. Come to this kind of wilderness, and you don't even bring weapons! Isn't this a bunch of outright noobs? Look at the brunette girl with two ponytails. She was still screaming and screaming as if she was watching the excitement, couldn't she see what was going on here? Think it's a street fight?
The little bubble gum is indeed in the mood to watch the excitement.
It's not her to blame, it's also a common problem for players, and in general, in the game, any dispute is very good material for the player. If they are the inhabitants of this worldly realm. Then it is natural that more things are better than less things, and self-purity is the most important thing. But it's different for players, this kind of group fight scene is likely to bring them new power prestige and tasks, and even some players can't join the power through regular channels, if they choose to help each other in the face of this situation. Then maybe you can get an admission ticket or something in the future.........
Although this kind of scenery is very common in the game, this scene is very rare and kind for the canary and little bubblegum who have been "grounded" in the Land of Atonement for a long time, which is why they still choose to walk with their strength, even though they can teleport to Glen Bell in an instant. They want to relive the journey they had as players, navigating the map, eager to meet hidden NPCs, trigger special quests, kill rare monsters, and dig up treasure and equipment, which is the essence of being a player. Games are for entertainment, not for the hard work of life, that's not the original purpose of the game.
And for the current little bubble gum, of course, she has the capital to entertain.
I saw the black-haired girl rushing to the front, waving at the people inside, and then shouting loudly.
"Hey! The people inside, do you want to help?! ”
Help?
Hearing this, whether it was the group of mercenaries surrounding outside, or the people who were surrounded inside, they were all stunned when they heard this, and they looked at the unarmed black-haired girl blankly, completely unsure of what to say. Is this little girl mentally problematic or crazy? She doesn't look at it, what is the situation right now, is she an idiot?
"Catch them!"
Seeing this, the thief finally couldn't help but give an order, he looked at the black-haired girl with a bit of greed, and at the same time couldn't help licking his lips. Hearing his order, more than a dozen huge and sturdy mercenaries immediately turned around and pounced on Little Bubblegum and Canary and the others.
"Be careful, run away!"
Seeing the enemy attack the three young people who suddenly appeared, several mercenaries inside immediately shouted uneasily, but they couldn't move at all, they could only watch those fierce mercenaries pounce on the three young people like fierce beasts, under their foil, the three young people were so thin and weak, so vulnerable, they didn't even have the slightest intention of running away in the face of the other party's attack, and seemed to be completely stunned. At this moment, even a few people couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and they even turned their heads and closed their eyes.
And at this time, a crisp reprimand suddenly sounded in their ears.
"Look for death!"
With this shouting, everyone only heard a dull sound of "boom" that almost cracked their eardrums, and then a wave of air that was almost enough to suffocate people rushed to their faces, and they even felt that they could not even breathe for that moment, and the air solidified into a wall like a solid wall that blocked their mouths and noses, making them feel fluctuated and flustered. And when everyone opened their eyes again and saw the scene in front of them clearly, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
In front of them, the dozens of mercenaries who had surrounded them had fallen to the ground at this moment, their faces were pale, frightened, distorted, blood seeping from their mouths and noses, and most importantly, these people were completely silent at this moment! They're dead!!
What the hell is going on!?
Everyone looked up, and saw that the three people were already standing in place leisurely at this moment, and the black-haired girl who had come up to ask them if they needed help was now sorting out her clothes with an indignant face, and the mercenaries who had just gone to arrest her............... Now he has long since disappeared.
And at this moment, suddenly in front of everyone, a green light flashed, and then they saw the necromancer stretch out his hands, and then, a huge green ball suddenly burst out from the necromancer's hand, forming a dark cloud and shrouded forward, and for a while, they saw the breath of death roaring, and even the blades of grass on the ground quickly withered and melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A dazzling red suddenly appeared.
"Woo-a-a
Without any warning, just the blink of an eye, I saw that the cloud that had been advancing forward, full of death and obscure breath, suddenly burned like a burning cloud in the sky, and along with it, there was also the necromancer, almost after it issued this spell, the necromancer wrapped in black robes completely exploded like flammable dry wood, and then, the thin flames mercilessly devoured its body, just for a moment, I saw that there was nothing left on the ground except a pile of dark ashes.
The crowd turned their heads blankly, but all they could see was a flash of red between the canary's fingers. (To be continued.) )
