Blue Sword

Chapter 76 Ghoul

For the Night Watch organization, foreign mercenaries are simply an abomination to them.

One reason is that it is pervasive.

As long as they smell the signs of undead changes, these foreign mercenaries will flock to them.

No matter how the night watchmen set up a blockade or violently drive them away, they would always find a way to infiltrate.

However, as a world-wide extraordinary organization, the Night Watch attaches great importance to its external reputation and cannot commit evil acts such as directly killing these mercenaries.

The second reason is lack of discipline.

Even if they follow the Night Watchmen, they do not listen to the Night Watch Knights' orders.

Shunfeng Zhan rushes forward in a chaotic manner, and when encountering defeat, he escapes faster than anyone else.

Sometimes they would lead monsters to the Night Watch's front line, or steal the Night Watch's equipment, causing the Night Watch knights a huge headache.

The third reason is that his strength is too weak.

This is the original sin of everything. If these mercenaries are good enough to fight, the previous shortcomings will not be shortcomings.

For these foreign mercenaries, the night watch knights have already had a tacit understanding of how to deal with them, which is to let them follow behind and keep the other party within their sight to prevent them from running around and attracting monsters.

At the same time, they are not allowed to enter the battle line of the Night Watch Knights to prevent them from interfering with the Night Watch Knights' battle.

For the foreign mercenaries, it was a bit uncomfortable not being able to run around, but following the night watchmen and picking up some of the trophies they left behind after the battle was a bit of a blessing.

Of course, this mode is like a lion hunting in front and a hyena following behind to pick up carrion. It's no wonder that the night watch knights treat the mercenaries with complete disdain and contempt.

Soon, the night watch knights took action according to the orders above. The three knights of Holy Sun, Silver Moon, and Morning Star went to eliminate the undead creatures according to their respective designated combat areas.

As the weakest part, Morning Star was assigned to the seaside part of the road leading to Paramus, where corpses and water ghosts were infested, which were relatively easy to deal with.

Although their claws are sharp and contain corpse poison, the knights are covered in power armor, so they are not afraid of this threat.

A few hours later, Knight Commander Jasimodo, leading six vigil knights from the third team of Morning Star, were walking cautiously along the seaside road with guns in hand.

Due to the significant reduction in manpower, the team could only optimize the equipment load. Heavy miniguns and RPG rocket launchers cannot be carried. In the end, the team chose a configuration of 4 laser rifles, 2 shotguns, and 1 flamethrower, taking into account the overall attack frequency, lethality, and endurance of the team.

Seeing that he was about to approach the dangerous area on the map, Knight Commander Jasimodo quickly ordered:

"Llorente, Roger, and Caris occupy the high ground at 1 o'clock. Langley uses heavy weapons to guard the pass between the two highlands at 12 o'clock. The rest of the people follow me in a V-shaped formation. Head towards the 11 o'clock high ground."

So the knights quickly acted according to the command. Someone suddenly asked:

"Jasimodo, where are the mercenaries behind? Do you want to take command together?"

"Don't worry about them." Jasimodo paused, "Jalevin, you walk behind the team and keep an eye on them. If there are any signs of trying to disrupt our formation, shoot once to warn, and the second time you shoot directly. .”

"Okay." Night Watch Knight Jaleven said.

At the same time, in the Cang Qing Sword mercenary group behind, Asker also began to deploy tactics:

"Peggy, Mia, occupy the hill at 2 o'clock. There is a big tree there. Mia, climb to the top of the tree, and then release Mier to support."

"Eleanor, Hildrifa, you take an arc to avoid the night watch knights, and go to the bottom of the hill in the 2 o'clock direction to wait."

"Medea, Sheila, you go to the 1 o'clock direction and keep a distance from the vigil knights in front. After they occupy the high ground over there, you can follow the edge of the bottom of the high ground and go around counter-clockwise to the front of the high ground."

"Nora, follow me. The rest of us will stay in radio contact at all times. Understood?"

"Understood!" the girls responded loudly.

With an order, the Cangqing Sword people quickly divided into four and moved towards their respective destinations.

Paige and Mia ran the fastest and reached the hill at 2 o'clock in a few minutes.

Although this hill is slightly shorter than the high ground in front of it, because there is a big tree growing on the top, the top of the tree is the highest point in this area.

Peggy stopped under the tree, while Mia was in the shadow world, constantly jumping between the broken shadows of the leaves, and soon reached the top of the treetop.

After sending the signal, Mier immediately teleported out of the Fire Island and quickly hugged the branches beside her.

"Come here, Mi'er." Mia greeted her, "This branch is the strongest and can bear the weight of both of us."

So Mi'er jumped over - she was of wood elf blood, and her agility on the treetops was comparable to that of an ape.

Arriving next to Mia, she tried shaking the branches under her feet.

Firm enough.

"The treetop team is in place!" the two girls said simultaneously on the radio.

"The hill group is also in place." A few minutes later, Eleanor and Hildelifera also came to the bottom of the hill and greeted Paige at the top.

"On the contrary, we are the slowest." Medea shrugged as she moved forward.

Silently, Sheila stretched out her right hand from her sleeve, and the mithril circuit on the surface of her skin suddenly lit up.

Light body technique.

Medea immediately felt that the weight of her whole body had disappeared. As long as she exerted force under her feet, her body could immediately jump up.

"Storm I's extraordinary ability?" She turned around and asked.

"Only 3 minutes." Silla nodded.

"That's enough." Medea moved forward quickly.

"The first two night watch knights looked back." Sheila reminded her.

"It's okay." Medea said, "Just don't get too close. I will monitor the other person's thought activities."

Sheila knew that she was a psychic sequence user who could read minds and could read the other party's level of vigilance, so she didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing the two knights ascending to the high ground, Sheila and Medea were at the bottom of the high ground and walked around counter-clockwise along the edge.

As soon as they arrived in front of the high ground, they were startled by the sight in front of them.

Below the high ground, on the plain about 100 meters away, there are at least a hundred ghouls wandering.

Their skin was dry, their hair was scorched, and their nails stretched out from their fingers like sharp claws of beasts.

Most of the ghouls crawled on all fours, and some walked on their hind legs, like savages in the mountains. The corners of their mouths grinned to an exaggerated arc, and green saliva flowed out.

"What a disgusting monster." Sheila couldn't help but said with disgust.

Medea was fine. The atmosphere in the Seljuk mystical world is relatively open. People who blaspheme and play with corpses, and those who hook up with demons or devils are everywhere. She has seen many more disgusting corpses than this, so she just said cautiously on the radio:

"Ask, the frontline team is in place."

"Mir, what's the view from the top of the tree? Can you see Medea and Sheila?" Ask took Nora and slowly came to the hill at 2 o'clock to meet Peggy, and then shouted towards the tree. .

"The field of view is OK." Mi'er set up the sniper rifle and replied, "Medea and Sheila are within the field of view, it has been confirmed."

"Okay." Asik finally said, "Everyone is ready, listen to my command!"

On the other side, the night watch knights were already in place.

Knight Captain Jasimodo led four knights to the high ground on the left side of the pass. He glanced back and saw that the members of the Cang Qing Sword mercenary group were hiding on a hill in the distance.

"Hyenas who are greedy for life and afraid of death." He thought contemptuously in his heart.

On the plain in the distance, many ghouls had noticed the figure on the high ground, and they couldn't help but stand upright in confusion.

Due to the long distance and the fact that the ghouls were upwind, they were only in a state of alert and did not immediately rush towards this direction.

"Ask..." Seeing many ghouls standing up and looking here, Sheila and Medea were a little frightened and asked on the radio, "Should we stay farther away? This distance... is not very safe, right? ?”

"No, your task is to attract monsters. If you are too far away, it will have no effect." Ask replied.

Attracting monsters? Both girls turned pale instantly.

God, let us two non-melee professions attract monsters!

In an instant, Sheila even felt that she had made a huge mistake - she should not have joined this Blue Sword mercenary group in the first place!

"Ask, you bastard! Have you made a mistake?" Medea was already roaring in the psychic channel. "We, an arcane mage and a psychic, are not good at close combat. How can we go to the front line to lead? That’s weird! If something happens, you’re responsible!”

"I'm responsible," Ask replied.

"Are you responsible?" Medea almost went crazy.

"I'm the captain. If I'm not responsible, who will be responsible?" Ask asked with a smile, "Can you at least give me some basic trust?"

"Trust?" Medea was almost speechless. "Have you done anything worthy of my trust?"

"Yes, have you forgotten the conspiracy formula?" Ask said with a smile.

The conspiracy formula... Medea suddenly remembered Asker's saucy operation, and she used the extraordinary characteristics of the conspiracy sequence to sense malice to complete a classic remote negotiation (zha).

Recalling carefully, every time I had a conflict with this guy, it seemed that the final result was being slapped in the face inhumanely.

For example, when they first met, he forced him to sign a soul contract and pretended to write on his sleeve, but he immediately saw through it and ridiculed her. In the end, she had no choice but to honestly sign a contract of betrayal to him.

For example, during the first team meeting to exchange secret knowledge, I questioned whether he had mastered the knowledge of the bloodline path. As a result, he conveniently reported a long list of potion combination information, making him look like an idiot.

Another example is that during the capture of Hearth Island, I doubted whether he could successfully trigger a rampage, because the moment his body was touched by a man, flames would erupt with temperatures exceeding a thousand degrees.

In the end, he slapped him with a backhand, triggering his own rampage without any harm... Although it was not insulting or malicious, it really hurts to think about it now!

Well, this guy is really powerful. It can be said that he has almost no plans. Every time he plans, he can achieve the expected results.

But I’m so angry. Why didn’t I burn this guy to death in the first place? Medea decided to follow Nora's example and bought a small notebook specifically to hold grudges, and write down all the things Aske bullied her.

"Can you still use your light body technique again?" Medea said bitterly.

"Okay." Sheila stammered.

"I have to move my legs and feet quickly." Medea began to do warm-up exercises, constantly pressing her legs and moving her ankles alternately. "Otherwise, if I sprain my feet or fall down while escaping, I will be dead. .”

"Don't say those unlucky words!" Silla said quickly, "I...I'll come too."

At the top of the high ground on the right, three vigil knights holding laser rifles and shotguns are waiting for orders from Knight Commander Jasimodo.

"What are they doing?" Roger looked at the two girls below the high ground with his peripheral vision, jumping and stretching to stretch their muscles, and wondered, "They seem to be dancing?"

"Don't worry about these crazy girls." Lorente stared at the group of corpses in the distance and warned, "Don't increase the number of entities unless necessary."

So Knight Roger also silently recited the Law of the Razor to eliminate these irrelevant thoughts from his attention.

Finally, Jasimodo's order came:

"All laser rifles, free fire!"

In an instant, the sound of arcs penetrating the air was heard, and four crimson and slender laser beams shot out, hitting the densest place among the ghouls.

Like a spear piercing a hornet's nest, the entire group of ghouls exploded.

Countless ghouls rushed towards the high ground. They were on all fours, running wildly on the ground as vigorously and agilely as a cheetah, with their large mouths full of sharp teeth opening crookedly, revealing snake-like slender tongues and saliva, which they whipped like whips while running at high speeds.

"Medea, listen up!" Ask said on the channel, "Use your desire ability to manipulate the hunting desires of these ghouls and attract their attack targets."

"Asker!" Medea almost knelt down for him on the spot. Even if you just stand here and attract monsters, you still need to use your desire ability to attract monsters? Is it because you don’t want to die quickly enough?

"Their speed is at least ten meters per second, right? If they are pulled over, there is no way we two can escape!"

"Sheila's use of light body can speed up your escape." Asik said calmly, "We will also provide long-range support here, so you won't be really caught up by the ghouls."

"Are you really sure?" Medea burst into tears.

"Yes." Mi'er replied.

"Okay!" Since both members of the team said so, Medea no longer hesitated and said fiercely, "Sheila, give me the lightening technique!"

The extraordinary power flowed along the mithril circuit, and the two of them felt the weight of their bodies disappear in an instant.

At the same time, Medea opened the five fingers of her right hand and made a grabbing gesture towards the group of ghouls in front.

The mental body of the undead is incomplete, and its main component is the self hidden in the decaying corpse.

Medea's desire ability directly affects her self, so she had an outstanding effect on the spot.

All the ghouls turned wildly during the charge and rushed straight towards Medea and Sheila.
