Chapter 129: Hunt and Counterattack
Shen Yi walked through the gloomy corridor, surrounded by darkness, but it had no effect on him.
The darkness was not caused by the Lunatic Cult, but the adventurers deliberately extinguished all the lights as they scurried along the way.
Darkness brings chaos, making it a great time to fish in troubled waters, and it's also more conducive to assault and stealth during street fighting.
However, for Shen Yi, there is a more important benefit, that is, it is convenient for him to manipulate the whole detention with the help of high-tech.
The electronic scout bee has flown to all corners of the third level, sending back images of all passages throughout the labyrinth.
Zeus made an electronic map and passed it to each adventurer so that they could familiarize themselves with the terrain, while the scout bee transmitted real-time information back to the handheld computer, and a summoned soldier held the computer to report the situation to everyone at any time, the main role was to avoid the adventurer from running into Tuoba Stone and the others.
"Be careful of passage four, Elder Shi is bringing people over. ”
"Understood. Shen Yi replied, and quickly turned to the fork on the other side. Several Lunatics ran towards him, Shen Yi raised his hand, and the bullets were already shot out like beads, and at the same time quickly swept past the side of those soldiers, the vampire touch had already wiped the throats of those disciples, and the movements were like flowing water, swaying freely, and after completing the kill, he continued to move towards the next area.
Similar assassination-style battles are being staged in various areas of the entire underground labyrinth. Although they were newcomers, the adventurers were not familiar with the terrain, but with the help of the Scout Bee and Zeus, the adventurers' grasp of the terrain was even better than that of the Lunatic Cult.
Although the Lunatic Cult is familiar with the terrain, it is quite unfamiliar with the tactical concept of street fighting.
The concept of street fighting is actually very simple, that is, to use complex terrain to divide the enemy, and then use the terrain to concentrate superior forces to constantly eat away at the opponent, so as to achieve the goal of final victory.
It is still essentially about creating a local advantage and expanding it into a global advantage, and when it comes to performance, it is still about dividing the enemy and weakening the opponent.
It was not that the ancients did not know how to do this tactic, nor did they not understand it, but the problem was that it was in great conflict with the ideology of the time.
In that era of paying attention to gentleman's benevolence and righteousness, and being upright and bright, such an all-encompassing tactical concept would be rejected by many people, such as Li Xiaoyao at the beginning, who could not understand and accept the behavior of stabbing from the back in any case.
Even if a small number of soldiers can understand the truth that the winner is king, they cannot go against the overall situation of the current situation.
Of course, the Lunatic Cult is not a good person, but the limitations of the times and environmental background make it impossible for them to be an exception in their ideological understanding. Even their dirty deeds could not be carried out publicly, such as feeding Gu with living people, and they were even carried out secretly in the underground palace, and there was no light of day at all. Therefore, there is absolutely no such tactical awareness.
Coupled with the fact that the adventurers acted quickly, acted ruthlessly and never dragged their feet, they immediately made the Lunatic Cult suffer a big loss.
At this moment, the adventurers moved around, attacked quickly, retreated whenever they encountered a strong enemy, and killed them with all their might when they encountered a weak hand.
Among them, the most eye-catching performance is gentleness.
Darkness is the home of gentleness and nature, and the dark automatic invisibility ability of the Dark Set may not be a big deal for adventurers with the ability to break invisibility, but for Lunatic worshippers, gentleness is simply a nightmare.
She always crept up behind someone, slicing through their throat or body with the Blade of Judgment, and vanished in an instant, leaving behind a corpse twitching in blood.
The Dark Suit allows her to be invisible in the dark, and Shadow Leap allows her to teleport freely in the dark, coupled with the powerful speed bonus brought by the high-speed neural response system, Gentle runs quickly between almost every passage, like a night hunter, freely hunting every life in the dark.
Blood was splattering everywhere, life was wailing, and the entire underground labyrinth was in a bloody rain.
Tuoba Stone, who led the crowd in pursuit, Elder Shi and the others quickly noticed that something was wrong, and there were fewer and fewer people following them, but there were more and more corpses lying on the ground.
Only then did they realize that the target they were pursuing was like a group of ghosts, and instead of fighting them head-on, they were killing in the shadows.
"The opponent is cunning and is using the terrain to hunt us and others. Tuoba Stone said in a deep voice.
Even if he didn't understand what street fighting was, he realized what was going on.
Elder Shi next to him had already said quickly: "For the sake of today's plan, the only way is to immediately let all the disciples and soldiers immediately withdraw from the underground palace and surround this place." Elder Liang, mobilize the Earth Demon Beasts and drive them out!"
He is the general of the Miao State, in addition to working for the Lunatic Cult, he also has to lead the troops, and he is at least stronger than a pure martial artist like Tuoba Stone in terms of tactics, so he reacts as soon as possible.
Tuoba Shi thought about it, and finally nodded: "That's it." ”
It's a little too late to do that, but it's better than never.
Under the hunt of the adventurers, nearly forty percent of the thousands of Lunatic worshippers and soldiers who entered the underground labyrinth fell at the hands of the adventurers.
More than 400 people, which doesn't sound like much, but the entire holy mountain is only 4,000 people, and this time, there is already a tenth of it.
A terrible whistle sounded in the dungeon, and all the Lunatics and Golden Armor Guards quickly retreated towards the dungeon after hearing the sound.
The first thing adventurers felt was that there were fewer people in the dungeon.
This gives them more room to maneuver, but it also leaves fewer enemies to kill.
Just as he was wondering, a dull low howl sounded in the dungeon, carrying a huge and majestic aura unique to demonic beasts.
Shen Yi felt this breath for the first time: "Earth Demon Beasts, everyone be careful, the Lunatic Cult is going to close the door and let the dogs go!"
As soon as he said this, Shen Yi noticed a sudden tremor under his feet. This tremor did not come from the eruption of the Holy Mountain, but the result of the use of an earth elemental force.
At the same time, Shen Yi saw that a heavy earthen wall suddenly rose from the labyrinth passage behind him, and he actually blocked his back road completely.
Shen Yi rushed over and punched the earthen wall.
This punch shook the earthen wall and broke a big hole, but it did not crack, Shen Yi immediately knew that even if he could smash this earthen wall, he was afraid that it would take a lot of strength.
He hurriedly shouted at the coat of arms, "The Earth Demon Beast has begun to seal the labyrinth, everyone hurry up and get out of here!"
The Earth Demon Beast is a magical beast that controls the earth and stones, it is said that this underground labyrinth was originally created under the innate mana of the Earth Demon Beast, with it, the entire maze can become an active maze, and it can constantly change directions and passages, which makes it very similar to the X killing array created by Shen Yi and them at the beginning, but the main controller is no longer Shen Yi.
Shen Yi naturally would not fight the enemy in such a situation.
Adventurers are always the most realistic, and they are always driven away from disadvantages.
The next moment, Shen Yi was already rushing towards the exit of the other side of the passage, and shouted at the same time: "Go to the upper floor!"
All the adventurers turned at the same time and ran towards the top of the dungeon, and behind them, one earthen wall after another had emerged, as if countless gates had risen and fallen.
Rumble!
An earthen wall fell down shortly after it was raised, and a large number of people had already walked out of the rear, it was Tuoba Shi, Elder Shi and others.
With a wave of Elder Shi's hand, a Dharma Protector had already stepped forward, sniffed at the air a few times, and then turned around and nodded, "They were here just now." ”
Elder Shi had already said in a deep voice: "Block the other passages, force them to the upper exits, and send the order to the two hearts, and all the soldiers and disciples will concentrate on the exit, ready to kill!"
As they met each other, he gradually realized the cunning of his opponent. To his surprise, the mastery of this group of people in the use of the art of war and tactics was far beyond his comprehension.
Faced with this situation, others may scold for being despicable. After all, Elder Shi was born in the military, but his understanding of war was much deeper than that of others, so he would only praise his opponent for his cleverness.
However, because of the cleverness of his opponent, he was stimulated to fight spirit, and at this moment, he took out what he had learned. Don't look at him as a simple tactic of driving the dog into the alley and inviting the gentleman into the urn, but it is also natural and flawless because of the time, place, and people.
Even Shen Yi didn't expect that in just this short period of time, Elder Shi had already let the people who had withdrawn block the door, concentrated all their firepower, and was ready to give the adventurers a head-on attack.
In this matter, Shen Yi finally made an empirical mistake, still regarded the opponent as an antique who did not understand current affairs, and at the same time lacked the necessary means of communication, but ignored that this is a world with the essence of Xianxia, so he can also do some things that the ancients could not do.
At this moment, on all sides of the underground palace, the roar of the earth wall is still here and there, under the influence of the earth monster, almost all the forks in the entire underground palace are blocked, and only a road to the exit remains.
Adventurers had no choice but to run along the exit.
They rushed through several branch roads and met at the entrance of the passage, laughing happily when they saw that each other was okay.
Su En had already preemptively said, "I killed twenty-six." ”
Shen Yi shrugged: "Thirty-two." ”
The gentle and lovely nose wrinkled: "Sixty-eight, including four Gu masters, but I didn't give points, it is estimated that it will be settled in the end." ”
Everyone didn't kill as much as her, and everyone expressed their helplessness together.
Shen Yi tilted his head: "Let's go." ”
He has taken the lead in running towards the exit of the passage.
Gently and coquettishly: "Don't think about being in front of me!"
The last one came first, swept past Shen Yi, and rushed forward.
Shen Yi laughed, and his feet accelerated, and the two almost walked side by side, rushing out of the dungeon at the same time.
Just as they rushed out of the dungeon, they were shocked to see a dense large number of Lunatic Cultists and Golden Armor Guards waiting at the entrance of the passage.
In an instant, the call began.
Everyone launched their strongest attacks at Shen Yi and the two at the same time, and the sky was filled with countless poisonous arrows and spears, and all kinds of Gu insects, like dark clouds covering the sun, swept towards the two of them, completely drowning them......
