Chapter 137: Breaking into Pieces
Frank soon arrived at the "scene of the crime." The other mercenaries were not slow, and they also rushed over after a while.
No, or whether this is a "crime scene" no one knows, because along the way, everyone saw no corpses, and no traces of a fight. What's even more strange is that the screams came from here, but the mercenaries didn't see anything all the way!
This is too evil!
However, no one thought that the screams were delusional, because after the count, they were one less person.
Frank wasn't stupid, and he didn't see anything wrong with it at this point, so hell was it.
"Keep looking."
But he didn't mean to give up, but waved his hand and continued to give orders.
"This time you are in groups of three, someone is attacked, report it immediately!"
No one refuted Frank's words, they just nodded heavily, and then walked away with the same scattered steps as before.
No one noticed that in the depths of the tunnel, which looked like a dead end, Rhodes was quietly hiding, watching vigilantly outside through the gaps.
"Looks like these guys aren't stupid, but it's more challenging."
He whispered, and then quietly emerged from the gap as the mercenaries scattered and parted again.
"I don't think there's any point in fighting like this, master."
And the angel who followed him out of the crack had a serious face at the moment.
"This insidious battle will not bring us the glory of victory!"
"And what do you mean?"
Rhodes leaned against the wall and swept vigilantly to both sides, making sure that there was no one, and then asked without looking back.
"We should attack them head-on and fight them with dignity!"
Saying this, Celia even held her long sword in both hands and held it in front of her, with a serious and holy expression on her face. As if for her, it was not a battle, but a glorious ritual.
"Huh? Are you stupid? ”
But it wasn't Rhodes who answered her, but Qilian's obvious rhetorical question with mockery and doubt.
"Don't you see that these guys are abnormal? The strength of the masters is too far from theirs, and only in this way can we complete the task and win.
It doesn't matter if you want to fight them squarely, but what if you get surrounded by enemies? Do you use your brain, do you have nutrition, do you run all to your chest and wings? It doesn't matter if you're dead, you can be resurrected anyway, but what are you going to do if your master dies? ”
"Start......... I'm not going to let this happen! ”
The irony of Seven Loves, while Celia's face changed slightly.
"I'll do my best......"
"If it is useful to talk about it, then I also said that I can help my master conquer the entire world, as long as I do my best
Well, winged bird, now is not the time to talk about your boring, moldy, expired chivalry, it's your job to concentrate on fighting, and don't forget that you're a summoner, dedicated! Do you understand dedication? It's our business to sacrifice life and death to fight for our masters like my dogs, don't be confused about the situation, stupid! ”
Although the sarcasm of Seven Love is quite straightforward and spicy, Celia has no way to reply at all, not only because she can't say the other party, but also because the class of Seven Love is far higher than her...,
In this situation, Celia had no way to refute the other party's words. She's just an ordinary war angel, and Seven Love is an elemental lord, and although the two sides don't belong to the same set of cards, the relationship between the upper and lower classes is still very clear.
So Celia didn't say anything more, but held her sword and carefully followed Rhodes to avoid making any noise
After all, for a knight who is good at frontal combat, sneaking in the shadows like a killer is not her forte.
Rhodes soon found the target.
The three mercenaries were walking cautiously through the tunnel, they were holding their torches high, looking around, no one was calling to find their missing companions, they already knew that it was pointless, and in fact these guys didn't really care about their own companions, they only cared about themselves or they wouldn't have left their mercenary group for money.
At the moment, all three people's attention is on the front and sides, and they don't pay too much attention to their backs, which is an opportunity for Rod.
One step, two steps, three steps.
Rhodes listened to the footsteps of the three men and silently read the numbers, then he stood up and gestured to Celia. Although Celia was very dissatisfied with Rod's way of fighting, it turned out that she was still very "dedicated", after seeing Rod's gesture, Celia did not hesitate, spread her wings fiercely, raised the long sword in her hand, and rushed towards the three of them quickly.
The sound of flapping wings immediately caught the attention of the three mercenaries, who turned around curiously, and then their eyes widened in surprise.
When they were ordered to search the tunnels, these mercenaries were already prepared, maybe they would see the monsters that emerged from the darkness, maybe they would see something terrible, but they never thought they would see such a scene
An angel in white armor flew out of the dim passage, sword raised, wings shrouded in divine light fluttering, and snow-like feathers fell from behind her, giving people a dreamlike feeling.
And now for the three mercenaries, they really felt like they were dreaming.
This is not on the surface, but in a deep pit, how did an angel come out?
But their question was not answered, because at this moment, Celia had already swung her long sword, and in an instant, the silver-white flames burning on the sword body immediately burst out and rushed straight forward along the tunnel!
The Divine Fire was not actually dazzling, and it could even be said to be quite soft, but when this flame broke out, the three mercenaries only felt as if they were looking directly at the sun for a moment, and their eyes were a vast white color, and they couldn't see anything. Not only that, but the divine aura entrained by the flames made them feel even more angry, and a kind of disgust and anger from the depths of their hearts instantly welled up.
The sacred fire swept through the three of them like a breeze in an instant, and it didn't cause them much damage, but it only made the mercenaries feel the pain on the surface of their skin swept by the silver fire, as if they were burned by the fire, they gritted their teeth, drew their weapons, and launched a counterattack with a roar.
Although they can't see it for the time being, they are no longer the fools they used to be, and the amount of power they have now is enough to ensure that even if they are out of sight, they will never be attacked!
But what they didn't expect was that the angel didn't continue to attack as they thought, on the contrary, after she blasted down the divine flame, she actually landed and rolled backwards to dodge? …,
At the same time, Rhodes had already appeared.
Hua held the long sword in his right hand, stared solemnly at the target in front of him, pressed his left hand on the sharp blade, and rubbed it hard, and the dripping blood soon flowed down the sword body, and after absorbing the blood, the bright red blade also emitted a bright brilliance.
Then, Rhodes stepped forward and took a half-step forward with his sword in the air, passing a perfect half-circular arc of the moon, as if painting a beautiful picture, and when it reached its apex, the bright red arc blade of light quickly detached from the sword, and shot forward.
Rod's attack and Celia's dodge work together so well that when he casts the blade, Celia hasn't hit the ground yet. But as the bright red moonblade roared past, Celia rolled on the spot, letting the extremely sharp, bloody blade of light fly past her head.
The mercenaries didn't think of this trick at all.
When they were attracted by Celia, they rushed forward to attack, but unexpectedly, their actions became the stupidest choice to close the distance between themselves and the Grim Reaper.
The sudden light blades that flew from the sky caught them a little off guard, but the three of them did not panic because of this, on the contrary, a hideous smile appeared on their faces.
The trio then shouted and raised their weapons.
Pitch black, like smoke-like strange energy erupted from them like flames, enveloping them in it, and with this strange flame, the temperature of the entire pit also dropped suddenly, and even faintly emitted a smell similar to rotten eggs.
The pitch-black flames wrapped around the mercenary's weapon, and then collided violently with the light blade that Rhodes had fired.
"Ann !!"
The air flow generated by the exchange of two sides echoed in the narrow tunnel, and for a time the sand, gravel and soil blocks fell one after another, and the beam, which could not withstand the impact because of its age, was torn off from the middle, and the entire tunnel was shaking for a while.
And at this moment, the originally hideous and smug smiles on the faces of the three mercenaries turned into an indescribable fear.
They originally thought that relying on their current strength, it would not be a problem to withstand the opponent's attack at all. Especially after they really blocked Rod's light blade, this thought took over their brains.
Who said that we are waste, and now we don't even pay attention to attacks of this magnitude!
But the thought only lasted a second in the minds of the three mercenaries.
Because they soon discovered that the blade of light had not gone away.
Instead, as it struck, the bright red arc of the crescent moon suddenly shattered like a loose building block, forming dozens of small blades. Condensed into a powerful whirlwind that enveloped them completely, the sharp blades of light slicing through their bodies with ease, leaving shocking scars on their bodies.
And at this moment, what is even worse is that Celia attacked!
The war angel was not afraid of the whirlwind at all, she raised her long sword coquettishly, and the sword with the sword turned into a silver light and rushed directly into the three of them, and then the sword fell in her hand, only to see a flash of silver light, one of the mercenaries was immediately cut in two by the sword together, and the sacred flame burned on his wound, and soon turned him into ashes.
The other two only reacted at this time and wanted to struggle, but where would Celia give them such a chance, she grabbed the long sword and slashed down, flying with a silver thread, and the remaining two were completely surrounded by the divine flames, and then fell to the ground, without moving.
"Master, there's someone in front, on the left, and in the back! The closest in the back, the farthest on the left! ”
Hearing the warning of Seven Loves, Rod nodded with satisfaction, he quickly made a gesture to the angel, and then the two quickly re-entered the shadows of the pit and disappeared.
The best is yet to come...... )
