Chapter 36 Surrounded

Dead silence.

In this dead silence, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew, the kind that made people feel cold, as if it was a cold wind that was suffocated by blood. The gust of cold wind, with a breath of death, contained a slight rotten smell, blew across the entire town in an instant, covering everyone. As the gust blew by, a fog actually rose from the surrounding land. The fog gathered together in a few seconds, and soon a gray feeling appeared around.

A cold breath came from the ground, and everyone felt a little uneasy.

"It's getting foggy!"

Murphy looked around and felt something was wrong in his heart. He frowned and said in a deep voice: "Everyone moved closer to me and lit the torch!"

The fog around was getting thicker and thicker, and what could be seen was getting blurry.

After lit the torch on Murphy's side, other mercenaries around also lit the torches one by one as a sign of distinction to avoid causing chaos. These torches are made of special grease and some small magic was added to them. Although they seemed undecided in the thick and cold fog, they could barely distinguish the situation around them.

"Let's exit first! Something is not right here!" Murphy used a sound amplification magic on himself and whispered loudly.

As Murphy's voice spread, the commander of the mercenary group around responded. The situation in this town was so strange. First, there was no trace of a demon, and then suddenly such a large amount of fog rose. If there was an ambush inside and rushed in rashly, everyone would probably have to explain it here. After all, the mercenaries were not regular troops, and each had their own teams. When they saw that something was wrong, someone would immediately start to slip back.

Seeing this situation, Murphy shook his head without any wry smile.

Although this plane is very powerful, it also has an obvious disadvantage, that is, no one can accept anyone!

Since the period of the human empire, even until now, there has been no truly authoritative leader. Even the legendary Queen Isabella is just a nominal ruler. The forces of various trade unions, parliaments, and associations are mutually restrained. Although they can unite together in the face of the invasion of the abyss, they cannot cooperate sincerely, and may even drag them down!

There is only one reason, that is, they do not have an absolute leader!

In this plane filled with a large number of heroes, almost no one can convince everyone and make the strong men of other races obey his orders!

Even Murphy was a little worried about whether the warriors of various races gathered together on Zenda's battlefield could cooperate sincerely!

An excellent army.

What is needed is not only strong personal combat effectiveness, but more importantly, team cooperation and absolute discipline!

If the three knights of the human empire, the paladins, and the palace mages could support other races, such as the Dwarfs' Druids' legion, the Druids' sect of the Elf, the Berserkers of the Orcs, the Fireblade Swordsman and Shamans, etc., then the power of the abyss would never be able to take over most of this plane's territory so quickly!

But what is the final result?

The human empire has resisted the invasion of the abyss for hundreds of years. After its strength was exhausted, the once glorious imperial civilization collapsed, and all races were also hit by a catastrophe after losing the barrier! First, the Druid Clan of the Elf Clan was severely damaged, and then the Berserker Legion of the Orc Tribe was wiped out. Although the Fire Blade Sword Saints and the Shaman Clan used their powerful power to block the invasion of the abyss for a period of time, they were still inevitably devastated!

Immediately afterwards, the Dwarfs' Gods Legion, all of which were the most powerful infantry legion on this plane were killed in battle!

They may have left an extremely brilliant record, but if they could cooperate with the Knights Templar of the Human Empire from the beginning, will this catastrophe that affects the entire plane be repeated?

sorrow?

This is a difficult thing to explain, but it is not easy to let all races let go of their past grievances and grievances and unite them together.

There is nothing to say about who is right or wrong in the past, but now how can we avoid such a tragedy?

……………………

There was a trace of chaos in the gathering of mercenaries. These mercenaries with their own missions were OK to fight on small battlefields, but in this battle of thousands of scale, they were exposed to their own battles! They had already run out of the town with fast running, and those who were slow to react had just retreated. Some of them were not planning to leave, gathering together to continue moving forward!

Looking at the mess around, Murphy couldn't help but sigh: "Mercenaries are just mercenaries, and they will never be as good as the army!"

This situation really made Murphy, the commander who had been on the battlefield, feel helpless. Before the enemy was seen, there was only a heavy fog, and the inside of the team became chaotic. It can be said that even the lowest militia team in the Athenian Kingdom should know more about what discipline is than these mercenaries! The prohibition of orders seems to have no existence to them!

"No! This fog is poisonous!" The old Templar who had been following Murphy suddenly changed his expression and shouted.

As a templar who believes in Holy Light and Justice, he has a far more than ordinary perception of many evil things. Even if the power of Holy Light has declined now, he quickly felt the weirdness in the fog.

"Quick out!" Murphy's expression changed when he heard this, but he still believed what the Templar said and immediately ordered.

Hearing that the fog was poisonous, the mercenaries who had been preparing to go deeper were also stunned.

Then, they ran out in a hurry. While running, many people opened the magic scroll and tore some low-level magic scrolls that they carried with them, such as purification, anti-toxicity, detoxification, blowing, etc. The scene was quite chaotic for a moment, and many people bumped into each other in the increasingly dense fog, and then cursed and cursed.

"Crack!"

"Click!...Click!..."

The sound of bone friction sounded, and the mercenaries who were retreating were stunned. When they turned around, they immediately found that the land ahead was loose, and then pale hand bones stretched out from the ground. Any living creatures they caught were immediately grabbed tightly. The pale finger bones were even pierced into the flesh and blood. Even if they were cut off, they could not take down these pale finger bones!

"Bone Prison!"

"It's the White Bone Prison! There are undead mages nearby! Everyone is careful! There are undead!"

Many experienced mercenaries shouted, reminding everyone around them. Fortunately, Murphy was alert at that time, and only a small number of people stepped into the trap of the white bone prison. Otherwise, they would lose a lot of people! The sound of "cracking" was still coming. The soil in front of them shook, and then pale hand bones stretched out, then they pulled open the soil on it and stood up skeletons.

Their eyes were flashing with blue flames, and they held sharp swords in their hands, walking towards everyone step by step at a speed that was not slow.

"These skeleton soldiers were not resurrected temporarily. They were buried underground by people in advance and then awakened again!" Murphy said to everyone around him.

Most of the temporarily resurrected skeleton soldiers have no weapons because they cannot transform weapons out of thin air!

The swords held by these skeleton soldiers in front of them are sharp weapons, with almost no rust. It is obvious that they were prepared for them in advance.

This is a trap!

Murphy looked ahead with a serious expression, pulled out the knight's sword at his waist, and said in a deep voice: "Prepare for battle!"

"Prepare for the fight!"

"Prepare for the fight!"

The loud shouts echoed, and amid the clanging sounds, the mercenaries around Murphy pulled out their weapons and formed a simple defensive formation. Murphy had limited time to prepare, and at most they could only train them to produce a few useful defensive formations. To reach the level of soldiers in the Kingdom of Athens, such short-term training could not be achieved.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

"There are enemies behind it too! Be careful! Ah! It's a demon!!!"

At this moment, a scream came from the rear of the front. The demons who disappeared had appeared behind the mercenaries at some point. They took advantage of the rich fog to attack and caught the mercenaries who were eager to retreat off guard! At this moment, the situation on the battlefield suddenly turned sharply. There was a vast skeleton army in front and a large number of demon troops behind. The mercenaries were suddenly wrapped in dumplings and trapped in the town!

but.

After all, these mercenaries have experienced a long-term killing formation, and after the initial chaos, they quickly stabilized.

Although they are not good at large-scale combat, they are extremely proficient in the cooperative combat method of small and small teams! They saw small teams of several or even dozens of people gathered together. They held various weapons, either coordinated defense, or took the opportunity to attack each other and cooperated in the battle, and they actually blocked the attacks of the demons behind them in an instant!

Although they are not good at large-scale battles, the mercenaries in this plane also have their own fighting styles.

Once the small teams separated, the demons attacked were also dispersed. The battle style of the two armies was originally a siege, but they suddenly made them a melee. The demons and humans were mixed together. There was no command at all on both sides. They were completely like fighting in troubled waters!

But, this kind of fighting method is extremely practical for the mercenaries. After a brief battle, they stabilized their formation and began to cooperate with small teams to kill the surrounding demons.

This kind of fighting method that is difficult to catch fish in troubled waters really made Murphy stunned.

——"Breaking the master to death with random punches!"

That's what I said.
