The Amber Sword

Act 93 Weird

The outlaw-like vigilance developed from walking on this underworld for many years made Na Xin immediately understand as soon as he saw the other party's movements: there was danger. But just as he turned around, a sudden scream came from outside the convoy:

"There's something strange!"

The sound came from the north, and Na Xin's face darkened, as if the uneasiness lingering in his heart had finally become a reality. He had no time to greet Mr. Liu and turned back to look in that direction with a stern face. But the carriages surrounding the camp also blocked his view, so he had to walk that way and through the camp.

The guards who were sitting by the campfire saw the former passing by them with a gloomy expression. They didn't react for a while. They looked at each other for a moment before picking up their weapons and followed him one by one.

Naxin came to the carriage, looked north of the Qiusangze River, and couldn't help but take a breath of air. Through the dim light of the starry night, he saw densely packed monsters pouring out of the darkness in the north. The creature looked like a thin piece of crystal. It stood on the ground with two feet, its claws were sharp and powerful, and it had a long tail. The head is small, with a long beak on it, making it look like a ghost in the dark.

Hundreds of these monsters are emerging from the high hills, and their target is obviously the carriage camp. The sentry on the carriage was so frightened that he could not speak when he saw this scene. His mind was filled with shock. When did the strange monsters start to attack Qiusang? They are found near the Zehe River, and there are still so many of them.

At this time, Na Xin could calm down. "Bring the musket and set it up." Although he knew that he would probably not survive tonight, he would not sit still and wait for death at this time. He shouted to his men: "Get ready to fight!"

Most of the scavengers on the underworld are outlaws. They understand that it is normal for them to lose their lives on this road of the dead. Besides, most of these people are alone in Rosalin. At this time, they inevitably feel fear in their hearts. An, but finally settled down under Na Xin’s two low roars.

So the guards took guns. The shield-raiser, although his face was bloodless, had finally organized a decent line of defense.

The scavengers of the underworld have been walking this road for decades. I finally have some experience in dealing with abnormal monsters. At least this defense line composed of carriages is reliable in most cases.

But that was when facing a few strange monsters. A wave of monsters composed of hundreds of monsters, not to mention their small carriage team, could devour a village in the blink of an eye.

Everyone knew that there was no way to survive this night, unless they could hold on until dawn, and wait until Rosalin's patrol cavalry arrived at this place, there would be a glimmer of hope.

But a small group of patrol cavalry couldn't save them. They had to wait for them to call a large force on the other side of the river, not to mention how long it would take to get from here to Rosalin. They couldn't survive this night alone.

The members of the convoy were all thinking in their own minds, and Na Xin did not care about these people. He knew that these people may not be reliable at this moment. If they did not know in their hearts that they would never be able to escape the pursuit of the strange monsters, At this moment, I'm afraid some people have already fled without fighting.

He suddenly heard a scream.

Slightly startled, he subconsciously turned around and saw Mr. Liu in the motorcade wiping the ancient bronze sword in his hand with a piece of green cloth. There was a lifeless corpse lying at his feet. It was one of his men, dark and dark. Blood was flowing out from under the corpse. Snaking on the sandy land.

He saw the body,

Then I saw two tall war horses not far away, and my heart became clear. I couldn't help but call him a fool.

They also don’t think that they can afford to offend someone who can ride such a horse and walk in the wild?

He nodded to the other party, indicating that he didn't need to care. He didn't have to offend the Nine Phoenix nobles for a fool. Besides, he also expected Mr. Liu to help. If he could survive tonight, only this person from Yu Jiufeng's nobleman is the only variable.

He took ten thousand steps back and said that even if he wanted to escape, the other party would definitely be able to escape with a war horse. He also hoped that if it got to that point, the other party could save him for the sake of his promise to take them along.

Mr. Liu looked indifferent. He also nodded to him.

When Na Xin turned around, his guards showed great indifference to the death of his colleagues. The underworld is a lawless place. There is only a struggle between the strong and the weak here, and there is no right or wrong. What's more, they don't even care about their own lives right now. How can you care about the life and death of others?

Some people glanced greedily at Mr. Liu's two horses, but when their eyes fell on the latter's ancient bronze sword, they looked back angrily.

For the aberrations, crossing almost a few miles of open space was a blink of an eye, not to mention that they were still condescending at the moment. When the guards saw the thin and abrupt figures moving in the darkness, they couldn't help but fire a few shots early.

A fire suddenly appeared in the darkness.

The magic crystal fragments and the burning light of gunpowder sprayed out far away, as if a giant dragon was spitting fire. These firearms came from Hazel and Osgang. They were sealed in sealed crates and were transported by Jiufeng's ship. Teams were transported from distant worlds - just like in the Ten Cities area, these powerful weapons that ordinary people can use are also highly sought after by mercenaries and merchants in Rosalin and the Swift Plains on the other side of the strait.

Since more than ten years ago, they have gradually flowed into the hands of black marketeers and desperadoes. Scavengers have used firearms to fight against aberrations on the underworld, and have achieved good results.

But not limited to now.

In the area illuminated by the fire, aberrations rolled and fell to the ground, but they quickly got up. The history of the Hazer people using firearms predates almost all kingdoms on the continent. In this country's firearms troops, front-line officers usually strictly prohibit their soldiers from firing before the order is given.

The Ebb Royal Guards Fusiliers, who defeated the Cruze Dragoons in Harlem, once had their drill code to allow the enemy to be fifty steps away before they were allowed to shoot.

But here, no one scolded those who fired in advance. Na Xin also understood that his men had no quality at all. They might still be brave enough to fight alone, but in this situation, they still had the courage to fight. What a blessing.

Fortunately, although the scavengers have no tactical literacy at all, at least their personal strength is still there. After all, there are only a few "cowards" who pull the trigger in advance. Most of the experienced guards have silently put the strange monsters in their imaginations recently. s position.

Then a stream of fire shot out from the side of the carriage.

The aberrations also lack tactics. Their hunting method in most areas is to swarm forward. In terms of intelligence alone, they are not as good as creatures such as wolves and wild dogs in the mountain forest. But the difference is that their strength is enough for them to complete this simple and effective attack. In the storm of steel projectiles, the row of monsters in front fell down, some were hit in the chest, some were hit in the head, and The crystal exploded, forming a hole the size of a bowl.

But only a few of the aberrations that are really hit in the vital points will die completely. Most of the aberrations can stand up again after being hit. Only by witnessing this scene with one's own eyes can people realize this again - among them Most of them have the strength of gold upstream.

The Type II Dragonlance used by the Scavengers was in the form of a three-eyed blunderbuss. After they fired the first round, they turned the handle and fired the ram again. After three consecutive waves of flames erupted, the torrent of aberrations became only a faint layer thinner.

Everyone was sweating, looking at the rows of strange monsters coming in. They were speechless. After three rounds of shooting, it was roughly estimated that there were more than 90 strange monsters left. On weekdays, In the final hand-to-hand battle, even if there are only one or two aberrations left, humans can often suffer casualties.

They really don't know how to fight the next battle.

At this time, some people finally started to flee. Some people dropped their weapons with pale faces and ran towards the back. Na Xin did not look at these people, because the fate of these people would not be any better than them. Unlike ordinary people, he could still remain calm at this time, and his eyes silently patrolled among the strange things.

For desperadoes, the majority are calm, because most of the guys who are not calm have already been eliminated by the harsh living environment. Although some people dropped their weapons and fled, there were still many people left. They all had their swords out of their sheaths and looked cold, but they were ready to fight.

Although there is a certain death situation in front of him, for the scavenger, there is always a sense of confidence when holding the weapon. It is easy to know what will happen if you turn your back to the enemy.

At this time, the fastest monster rushing in front had already crashed into the carriage. In human eyes, it was just a ray of silver light hitting the face. Then the entire carriage fell into pieces, and the black crystals carried on the carriage flew into the sky and scattered all over the ground.

But the humans behind had already expected it. They had already given up enough open space, and now they swarmed up, preparing to use the human sea tactic to hold back the strange creature.

This tactic is a valuable experience that the scavengers have gained from years of fighting. The monsters have no brains and like to rush in and always enter an ambush circle pre-set by humans.

But this time they miscalculated.

It's not that the monsters suddenly became smarter, but that they never thought they would encounter such a big scene.

The undead of Madara fought against the strange monsters in the south of the Sea of ​​​​Dead Moon, and have been retreating steadily for several years. The scavengers of Rosalin have ridiculed these skeletons more than once, thinking that they probably died after turning into skeletons. He lost his brain and became rusty. He couldn't even defeat the same brainless monsters.

But at this moment, Rosalin's scavengers understood the dilemma the undead encountered.
