LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 13: Bloody murderer
Those who stay in the mercenary guild are the elite of the three major mercenary groups. Almost at the same time that the signal bomb exploded, everyone was ready to set off, only waiting for the command of their respective heads to set off.
Ulysses walked out of the room after Yabu, the head of the fire regiment. Without any extra words or actions, the three commanders just waved their hands to signal the start of their actions. For tonight's action, they have formulated a careful plan long ago, and what they have to do now is just act according to the plan. Since there was only one enemy this time, Ulysses was assigned to the last team, and Kanka and Hal protected him. The two deputy heads were guarded close by, which shows that the three heads attach great importance to Ulysses, the light wizard.
The place where the signal flare was sent was actually not far from the Mercenary Guild. It only took Ulysses 20 minutes to arrive at the scene. However, even though Ulysses had prepared for it, he was shocked by the blood at the scene and was too speechless. An indescribable feeling of nausea kept churn in his stomach and almost vomited out. And many mercenaries around him were vomiting.
Corpses, corpses, corpses, corpses everywhere. On the roadside, on the trees, under the eaves, and on the roof, as long as you can see, there are corpses everywhere. And no corpse is intact. All the corpses are scattered like rag dolls that have been broken, with stumps and broken arms everywhere, as if they were thrown away at random. Ulysses saw many familiar faces in those corpses. They greeted him with a smile in the mercenary guild not long ago. At that time, they were all living beings full of hope for the future, but now All became cold corpses.
In the middle of all the corpses, the masked man in torn black clothes was pulling a short knife from the heart of a swordsman in heavy armor. The swordsman Ulysses also knew him, he was one of the masters in Taji City, and he was a sixth-level swordsman. He is not a member of the three major mercenaries, but a single mercenary who likes to walk alone. This time it must be because he thought he was capable of killing the murderer alone, and after sending the signal, he rushed to the scene earlier than Ulysses and the others, so he acted on the murderer first. Unexpectedly, he died tragically at the hands of the murderer.
After pulling out the sword, the masked man did not immediately attack Ulysses and the others. Instead, he threw a few lightning bolts and chopped the body of the sixth-level swordsman into more than ten pieces with his armor. Blood spurted frantically from the fragments of the swordsman's corpse, showering the masked man all over.
"The first team of fighters took the shield in front, the second team of fighters was ready to support at any time behind the first team, the third team of archers began to aim at the target, the fourth team of wizards began to prepare for magic." Shocked by the blood at the scene, the three well-informed heads of the mercenary regiment soon returned to normal and began to order the frightened mercenaries out loud.
With the shouts of the three commanders, the mercenaries who were frightened by the blood at the scene also recovered one by one. After all, they are the elite troops in the three major mercenary groups. Almost everyone is a courageous generation. The reason for the gaffe this time is only because the situation they saw this time is really appalling. In a short while, they lined up the formation ordered by the captain. This formation is commonly used by mercenary groups to deal with high-level monsters. The shields used by the first warriors are the large tower shields used to defend the city. This large shield made of pure steel can completely block the front of the shield holder. Although the shield holder cannot see the front, it can provide excellent defense for the archers and wizards behind. It is difficult for the magic or breath of high-level monsters to cross this row of shield walls. And if the monsters directly attack the shield wall, the soldiers in the second row will use spears or other long weapons to attack the monsters and force them away. Thousands of high-level monsters died in this formation.
"Attack!" The three commanders issued orders at the same time.
The archer was the first to shoot. Hundreds of arrows blocked all the retreats of the masked man almost instantly. Under such a intensive attack, it was impossible for anyone to be unscathed. What's more, among the hundreds of arrows that flew toward him, many were poisoned arrows, and there were even a few valuable magic arrows. Even if the seventh-level monster is shot by these arrows at the same time, it will definitely die.
Then it was the magician who took the shot. Out of hatred for the indiscriminate killing of the masked man, almost all the magician used their most powerful magic. The bursting fireball of the fire system and the wind blade Lianwu of the wind system, the two most powerful magic of the four-level magic, have become the first choice of the gale group and the fire group magicians. Groups of orange-red fireballs and cyan wind blades flew toward the masked man overwhelmingly. The combined power of these magics was enough to razor this street to the ground.
To the surprise of everyone in the mercenary group, the masked man neither evaded nor issued a grudge to resist these attacks. To be precise, he didn't respond to these attacks at all, and there was no fluctuation in the eyes exposed on the mask full of holes, as if it were just a breeze blowing towards him. In those eyes, there was only blood and killing.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" In an instant, the masked man was shot with countless arrows, making him look like a hedgehog. Among them, several magic arrows even penetrated his body, leaving several transparent holes in his body.
With a "bang", all the magic of the wizard was hit, and the place where the masked man was hit by the magic instantly turned into a sea of flames, and a huge explosion occurred at the same time. The violent explosion drove everyone back more than ten steps.
It succeeded. Almost all the mercenaries present came to this conclusion in their minds, and some mercenaries even put down their weapons. Indeed, no matter what point of view, under such a terrifying attack, the murderer is absolutely crushed, and it is impossible to still exist in this world. But Ulysses doesn’t think so. In his opinion, this level of attack may not be enough to bring down the immortal masked man, and the heads of the three major mercenary regiments also have a solemn expression. Obviously they have also discovered that Wrong.
"Step! Step!" From the sea of flames came the footsteps that made all the mercenaries present in disbelief, and the masked man walked out of the fiercely burning sea of fire. Walking out of the sea of flames, he no longer looked like a "person". Except for the mask, the whole body’s clothes had been burned out, and there was no place on the exposed body without wounds. The muscles on the wounds were blue-gray familiar to Ulysses, and they were all recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. The speed is more than ten times faster than the last time Ulysses saw it. The arrow sticks all over his body were burned up in the sea of fire. The stainless steel arrows left in his body were squeezed out by the muscles of the wound under his terrifying recovery force, and fell to the ground with a loud noise. Ding" crisp sound.
