Chapter 165 Get rid of the tail
Hesenke and Duffy were almost regretful. They had clearly told the bastards that they would quickly retreat when they were in danger, but they still had no return. The joint team, which was originally not large, now only more than twenty people were left, and some remaining soldiers, immediately made everyone feel a little desperate. Some two people had even left the team and returned to the original path.
The leaders of the two teams were also worried, but they did not dare to show it. As the team leader, if even they were timid, the other mercenaries would lose their confidence even more.
Since the reconnaissance team brought back the dark passage of news was the right route, everyone could only walk on the ground.
Shortly after the two teams of mercenaries entered the dark passage, Gu Cheng and others walked out from behind the stone pillars in the corner of the hall.
After calculating the time, Hesenke and others entered the dark passage for about ten minutes before Gu Cheng took Sali and followed him in.
After entering the passage, Hesenke and Duffy led their team to move forward carefully. Two assassins of the reconnaissance team with erect eyes and elementary trap sciences opened the way in front, and the rest followed closely. As the crowd went deeper, the dark walls on both sides gradually turned dark blue like the bottom of the sea. The faint light could see the road clearly without the help of torches. After walking for about ten minutes, we arrived at a fork. The reconnaissance team had already investigated these two routes before, and the one on the left was the correct road.
However, everyone followed the road on the left for another ten minutes and came to a fork of three roads. According to the information of the investigation team, walking on the left and right roads for another ten minutes will be a dead end, but the middle road will reach a fork of four roads in 10 minutes. When they get there, due to manpower, the investigation team did not continue to go deeper.
"I finally understand the meaning of the palace maze." Duffy looked at the entrances of the two passages, then looked at the end of the unknown where he frowned, and felt a bad feeling in his heart.
Dividing troops?
After the first three channels, neither Duffy nor Hessenk dared to divide his troops. There were no more people in the joint mercenary group to sacrifice. The current situation is that the chance of surviving one person being killed or injured will be reduced by one point.
"Look for it one by one?" Hessenk asked.
Duffy nodded helplessly: "Start from the left first."
Hesenk heard this and gave a wink at the assassin who led the way, allowing him to lead the team into the passage on the left. After the reconnaissance team walked more than 20 meters away, Hesenk and Duffy continued to follow in. The assassin who was exploring the path carefully groped forward in the passage. Suddenly he heard a "click", but he didn't know if he had touched some mechanism or had gone to a position where he could not go. A flame suddenly spurted out from his mouth on the azure stone paintings on both sides of the passage behind. With lightning speed, it sprayed onto the body of the next body of Li Zhan, igniting Li Zhan from top to bottom.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Li Zhan rolled on the ground wailingly. The people around him wanted to help him put out the flames, but when he took off his clothes and slapped them, the clothes immediately burned as soon as they hit the flames, scaring the mercenaries so much that they quickly threw away the clothes in their hands.
Seeing that Li Zhan was burned to death, his companions around him had no choice.
"Damn it! Damn it!" Hesenk saw his subordinates burned into a pile of black charcoal and his eyes were helpless, and his eyes were so angry that they wanted to drag the person who designed this maze out to pieces.
"Rabbi!!! How the hell did you search for the mechanism!!!" Duffy cursed viciously.
The assassin with a body size radical said in tears: "Boss, I am just a primary trap science. These are obviously beyond the scope of advanced trap science. I really have no choice!"
"Bastard!" Duffy shouted in anger: "If someone falls into the trap without any signs next time, I will throw you into the trap!"
"Yes, yes!" The fat rabbi had to carefully lead the two assassins to continue looking for the mechanism. Because of the mechanism, everyone's speed slowed down a lot.
In order to prevent emergencies, Hesenke and Duffy decided to divide the team into three groups, the first group was a reconnaissance team, and then twenty meters later were the second and third groups, led by two team leaders, followed by two mages and a priest, and the last were two Fighters and one Fighters responsible for preventing situations in the rear.
At this time, there was a "bang" sound at the top about five meters away from the last two fights. The silver guards sent to monitor the mercenary group disappeared due to time constraints, but it had already sent back the walking information of the mercenary group to Gu Cheng. Even if the mercenary group died, the team accelerated their death instead. The target they were tracking was now tracking them in the rear.
Gu Cheng has always kept a position of about 30 or 40 meters with the mercenary group. Because the light is dark, it is basically impossible to see the situation ahead if it exceeds 20 meters, so they have always judged the distance roughly by sound.
Coupled with the surveillance of the silver guardian, it can be said that every move of the Joint Mercenary Group is under Gu Cheng's control.
"Sari, follow behind, I'll kill the last few."
"Three people."
The night vision of the Demon Knight is better than that of Gu Cheng, and three warriors were discovered from afar.
"Go ahead." Gu Cheng said to the Demon Knight in a contract.
The two of them communicate through contracts like telepathy, which prevents the sound from being noticed by the three soldiers.
After getting closer, Gu Cheng saw the information of the three people. The two fights were level 45, and the level of the fighting was higher, level 47. With his own damage, at most one person would be noticed by the people in front of him, let alone the Demon Knight. After thinking about it, Gu Cheng decided to kill the fighting with the Demon Knight first, and then before he rushed back to support the front, he could kill the fighting and could not get rid of the fighting, and then ambushed in the dark to prepare for another sneak attack. He told the Demon Knight about the plan, and the two rushed forward at the same time.
"Phantom Slash! Sound Wave Slash!"
"puff--"
A cold light flashed in the darkness, and two sword edges attacked the neck of the warrior walking at the back at the same time. After several skills came down, the man had no time to wail, and his neck spurted bright red blood and flew out.
"Ah!!! Someone!"
The two Li Zhan in front were sprayed with blood and turned around immediately, but they saw that their companions were only left with a headless corpse. Then they felt a flash of cold light, and the sharp sword tip had already stabbed towards their faces. But these two people were also a long-standing person, and their reaction was extremely quick, and they immediately used Li Zhan's life-saving skills!
The magic power turned into a shield, but with a clang, two swords pierced the shield at the same time.
"There is a situation behind!!!"
"Captain!"
"Captain! Something happened later!"
The magicians and the Holy Feather Priest in the penultimate tier heard the noise behind, but they were also smart and did not go to the rear to support him rashly. Instead, they called for help from the people in front. However, because of this, the two people behind died in the hands of Gu Cheng and the others.
Without any hesitation, Gu Cheng immediately fled back with the summoned knight, and he followed the memory to trigger some mechanisms. When he ran to Sari's position, he triggered no less than five primary traps that were turned off by the assassins in front. Although these primary traps do not have the effect of high-level flame traps, they can also block the joint mercenaries for a while and can cause psychological pressure to them.
"Damn it! What's the matter!" Hesenke and Duffy were very angry at this time. When they were attacked by Gu Cheng in physical battle and force battle, they also encountered advanced traps in front of them. However, because of the team, most of the places where the traps were triggered were gaps between groups. The damage was relatively small, but unexpectedly, there was another situation behind them!
An assassin checked the body of the corpse of Fight and said, "Boss, they are all wounded by swords!"
Hesenk scolded, "Damn it, were those bastards going around behind us?"
"It's very likely, chase after me and take a look!" Duffy gritted his teeth viciously.
At this time, both Hesenke and Duffy cursed in their hearts, they were all these bastards, but they just ran to this ghost ruin, causing heavy losses to the team. When they were caught, they must torture the two goals before handing them over to the employer! Especially that Sali, after all, she is also a beauty who enjoys the title of the most beautiful girl in the town... She must play enough!!! Let Mark see how his daughter looks like a little bitch!!!
When everyone returned, they found that the mechanisms along the way were triggered, with spikes on the walls and the ground, spraying flames and various traps blocking their pace.
"Rabbi! Take people to remove these traps!"
These assassins have closed the trap once, remembering the rough switch position clearly, and it is not troublesome to close it. In about ten minutes, everyone came to a place less than five meters away from Gu Cheng and the others. Just as Hesenke and Duffy were preparing to pass it over, Gu Cheng, who was hiding in the dark, slowly and quietly extended out the sharp and slender rune dagger, aimed at Hesenke and Duffy who were walking in the front, and then stabbed forward suddenly!
Gu Cheng's rune dagger in the dark is unobstructed, extremely concealed, with almost no sound, which makes people unable to defend against. And it cannot be underestimated at all. Even wearing fully armed steel armor in front of Gu Cheng's rune dagger is no different from thin paper. From this, it can be seen that if the leather armor on Duffy's chest is penetrated by a sharp sword, then he will have no way to die!
"Clang—"
Gu Cheng's rune dagger penetrated Duffy's chest, but how could a ball of length be lost in seconds? He completely instinctively tilted his body and just avoided the vital position. However, Gu Cheng never thought that Duffy who had lost level 50 in one move in seconds, and the next moment, two combos had been used!
"Sonic wave slash!"
"Phantom Slash!"
Gu Cheng's current advantage is that the passage is narrow. Even if the joint mercenary group has too many people, there is no way. Instead, it increases the burden on Hesenke and others, because retreating will hit the people behind, providing them with very little space to move.
"Fengxing Technique!"
"Guardian Shield!"
What's more, behind Gu Cheng, there was a Sari constantly releasing the buff magic on him. As for the priests of the United Mercenary Group, in order to protect her, they placed her in the center of the team. At this time, they couldn't see Hesenke and the other two, let alone releasing the buff magic! So, Gu Cheng just followed one word - "Quick"!
We must fight quickly and resolve the two leaders!
"Swish swish swish swish-!!"
Accompanied by the interlaced sword light, Duffy, who could not dodge, was immediately cut off. The most tragic thing was that he wanted to escape back, but instead hit a Li Zhan. He paused and was stabbed by Gu Cheng, and blood splashed out. Seeing this scene, Gu Cheng's eyes lit up!
Gu Cheng was fully fired, and Duffy was almost unavoidable, but at this time Hesenke also seized the opportunity to stab Gu Cheng a few times. When he wanted to pounce on Gu Cheng the assassin's trick, he suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing by his eyes, and then a silver guardian sword appeared out of thin air and slashed at him!
During this period, the cooldown time of the Silver Guardian was restored, and Gu Cheng summoned it without hesitation.
As soon as the Silver Guardian appeared, he knocked the target that attacked his master to the ground. But he also caught Hesenk off guard. Otherwise, with Hesenk's strength, it would be very difficult for the 40-level Silver Guardian to knock him down with one blow!
"Do not to escape!!"
Suddenly, Duffy's cry sounded in Hesenk, but at this time he was knocked to the ground by the Silver Guardian. Where can he hide? At this time, in almost the blink of an eye, Duffy's body hit the Silver Guardian's body heavily, and then Gu Cheng's rune dagger pierced through Duffy and the Silver Guardian's chest!
"Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Hesenke and Duffy made miserable screams, and the sharp rune dagger and the silver guarded storm instantly tore their bodies apart. Even the leather armor made of high-level rhino skin could not protect his body. Accompanied by shrill screams, the two brave and majestic mercenary commanders fell to the ground, twitching, and their bodies were no longer moving.
Seeing his leader die, the mercenaries behind stared at the two people in front of them, they were already scared!
"puff!"
The two of them were hit by the sword again, and the people behind him realized that in addition to his own team leader, he was also the target of this person!
But blood was already splattering everywhere. The two fierce soldiers stared at the sharp blade exposed on their chests, as if they had not reacted at all. The next moment, the sharp two swords stabbed their necks, and with a "crack" sound, their heads fell to the ground. Seeing their companions being killed one after another, the others' situation was not much better, because they were Gu Cheng and the target of summoning the knights in the next moment, and resistance was in vain!
escape!
Escape from here quickly!
While Gu Cheng and the Summoned Knights were killing those in front, the mercenaries behind who had been tortured by this "space" had almost collapsed fled to the back. More and more people joined the escape team, and some wanted to fight to the death, trying to defeat the joining forces between Gu Cheng and the Summoned Knights! Ideals are beautiful, but reality is cruel...
The escaped man crashed into the trap, and the resisting man died under the sword.
"Puff!"
With a slight sound, the dark sword penetrated the chest of the last warrior. He grabbed the long sword in his chest in shock, staring at the young man in front of him who sent him to hell with his eyes wide open, with only surprise and reluctance in his eyes.
"Huh...it's finally done."
It was not until this time that Gu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. It had to be admitted that if the previous skeleton soldiers and the Mystery Dark Maze had long been tortured by these mercenaries, it would still be difficult for Gu Cheng and the Summoning Knight to unite to defeat them.
Thinking of this, Gu Cheng cheered up and breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally got rid of the "tail"!
Chapter completed!
