Chapter 75, Violent Assassin

A noisy voice sounded, but it was the ratman big shot.

After the temple guard appeared, he suddenly became energetic, and the panic and fear on his face were almost swept away in an instant.

He shouted loudly to the temple guard not far away.

"Quick! Save me quickly! Then kill these guys! What are you idiots doing!"

In the loud and harsh shout.

The senior ratman priest did not see that the pair of scarlet eyes that emerged from the darkness behind him had already shown some impatience and irritability.

A black short blade slashed across the neck of the once big shot like a butterfly flying through flowers.

Accompanied by the angry shouts from not far away.

"Stop!"

In the suffocating feeling that came at that moment, the senior ratman priest opened his mouth wide and gradually realized what was happening.

His eyes were full of disbelief.

Even if he was captured, he felt that he would at least die in the sacrificial ceremony of the god and become the most honorable guy among the sacrifices.

Although he was unwilling to accept such a fate, this sloppy way of death made it even more difficult for him to accept.

Whimpering and trying to swallow the air, his body, which was more energetic than ordinary ratmen under the nourishment of blood mushrooms, tried to stand up.

But it was all in vain, and he fell to the ground, bleeding, and there was no sound.

The rat assassin who killed him didn't even look at this guy, but stared at the angry captain of the temple guard in the distance, his red eyes narrowed.

At this time, the true face of these assassins was revealed.

These are some black rats with black fur and blood-red eyes. They have hunched backs, which makes them look much shorter and slender than ordinary ratmen.

This kind of slenderness is not the kind of skinny and weak, but a kind of slenderness that represents agility and lightness.

On the other hand, there were the temple guards wearing armor, holding shields and spears.

The team leader was furious.

As the leader of the temple guards, he was undoubtedly an elite among the ratmen. Even for Rat War, his starting point was only the captain of the temple guards.

In the past, the two ratmen who were captains also competed with each other, but now, Rat War has become a big warlord of the ratmen, and he is still a team leader.

The strong sense of gap and the huge jealousy almost overwhelmed him at a certain time, and also created the current situation.

He was not only jealous of Rat War, but also jealous of the white rat who did not give him this opportunity.

After the old priest saw through this jealousy, he easily got on this chariot of no return.

Now he has no way to retreat. Only by relying on the hidden assets of the old guy and some secret tunnels interspersed in the mountains can he survive the cleansing of the white rat.

But the old guy was killed in front of him!

He obviously had no way out, and only death was waiting for him.

The captain of the Ratman Temple Guards realized his fate at this moment.

But before that, he decided to kill the guys who had destroyed his hope of survival in a rage!

"Kill them!"

With his angry shouts, the team of only fifteen Ratman Temple Guards began to march in this narrow tunnel.

The wooden shield was much larger than the wooden shield equipped by ordinary Ratman warriors, and was obviously reinforced with animal fur and tendons.

Spears pierced out one by one.

In an instant, the formation was completed.

"Charge!"

At the captain's command, the temple guards who had set up a battle formation began to charge.

In an instant, these temple guards completed the acceleration, and the formation remained perfect without any mistakes.

In the whistling charge, several rat assassins who failed to dodge in time were hit by wooden spears and blocked by shields, and then hit the rock wall of the tunnel.

With the dull sound, the wooden spears broke into pieces the moment they hit the rock wall. The spears made of hard wood from the forest all ended up like this.

Not to mention the rat assassins who were not wearing armor and had no effective protection.

The rat assassins who were not able to dodge and were pierced and hit were almost silent in an instant.

In this narrow tunnel, the charging temple guards gave off a sense of invincibility. It is believed that when hundreds of temple guards blocked the end of the tunnel and rushed towards you with a whistle, how much fear these guys brought.

Compared with them, the rat assassins seemed particularly silent.

Even when the temple guards began to charge, this group of guys silently dodged into the darkness around them. Even if they were unable to dodge and were pierced, they would only let out a muffled groan at most, and then there would be no sound until they died.

Until those temple guards stepped into the darkness.

The sharp dark blade that showed no edge would suddenly appear, accompanied by those almost silent steps, deftly passing over the spears and shields in the hands of the temple guards.

The slender figure crashed into his arms, but it was not accompanied by the budding spring scenery, but death, and there would only be a cut throat in the touch.

Several temple guards fell down in this unexpected attack.

But the temple guards are indeed worthy of the name of the most elite troops of the rat people. Soon, the warriors who reacted threw away the heavy wooden shields and the spears in their hands that were suitable for use in large-scale melees.

Switch to a weapon that is more suitable for use in a small environment, the use of short spears.

Large battle formations are obviously no longer suitable in small-scale melees. The temple guards quickly dispersed from the large squads to attack the rat assassins in front of them in small teams of three or three.

But the rat assassins were not inferior.

As specialized assassins, they considered the problem of being unable to approach the target because it was protected by too many rat troops when they were established.

They also practiced battle formations, which is why they were divided into teams of five to capture the rat priests.

Because a team of five was enough to defeat most of the rat warriors, slave rats, and guards around the rat priests, and then complete the forced capture of the target.

Although as assassins, they certainly could not compare with professionals.

But a short fight was enough.

The two sides fought frantically, and in that difficult battle, these quiet assassins who were immune to the priests' berserker technique gradually became excited.

With their eyes red as blood, the attacks became faster and more crazy.
