Chapter 40: Fighting Back
Dong Xiaowei smiled: "Sure enough, this altar is actually a trap for that snake." The wizards of the ancient Dian Kingdom did not want the giant snake to communicate with the gods, but to ask for the blood of the giant snake. ”
Dong Xiaowei said sharply: "Come here, push the altar for me, and slaughter the giant python." I'd like to see what the snake blood that wizards need for the last time they can do it. ”
Dong Xiaowei gave the order, and her subordinates immediately rushed up, each holding the bronze lever and pushing it upwards fiercely. As the altar slowly rotated, there was a screeching sound of blades cutting snake scales from under the altar.
In addition to the circlip, the lower part of the altar should also be equipped with a knife wheel that can be rotated and retracted with the altar. Although the scale armor of the giant python is strong and difficult to break, it cannot withstand the repeated friction of the sharp blade, and after a long time, the giant python will be sawn in two by the altar.
The giant python seemed to know that its end was coming, and the mouth of a snake had been opened to the maximum, and although the snow-white fangs were shining in the firelight, it could not touch the murderer who was about to cut itself in two, and could only scream again and again between desperate struggles.
In less than a moment, red snake blood seeped out of the cracks around the altar and spread along the stone patterns on the ground. Judging from the direction in which the snake's blood flows, the wizard wants to use the snake's blood to infuse the stone trough where I am hiding.
After I saw the direction of the snake's blood flowing, I grabbed the edge of the ground with both hands and quickly crawled out: "Ye Xun do it!"
Although Ye Xun jumped out of the stone trough after I gave the signal, he was more than a few points faster than me. After Ye Xun jumped out of the stone trough, he rolled on the ground a few times and rushed straight in the direction of Dong Xiaowei. By the time Dong Xiaowei reacted, Ye Xun's long knife had already burst into a cold glow, and it went straight to Dong Xiaowei and slashed down.
Although Ye Xun's knife was fierce, Dong Xiaowei retreated three steps away before the opponent's blade approached, and pulled out a long sword from behind him to meet Ye Xun. As soon as the two of them fought, the sword light and sword light in their hands completely covered their figures. Although I could barely see the figures of the two men staggering back and forth in the cold light, I could not intervene in the duel between them.
Dong Xiaowei's subordinates were probably afraid of hurting their masters, so they focused all their eyes on me for a moment, and the next moment, they pushed the lever with one hand in the same way, and pulled out the matching gun with the other hand and pointed it at me.
I was stunned for a moment, then I fell to the ground and rolled off into the distance. I hadn't gotten far before the sound of violent gunfire rang in my ears. The bullet-shattered rocks pushed almost against my body until I rolled into the corner where the other side was firing, and their gunfire stopped for a moment.
I took out Ye Xun's * with my back against the rock, and after charging the crossbow arrow, I threw myself outward. As soon as I got up, the gunfire of the other party moved with me, and before my body could fall to the ground, a few bullets flew into the distance against the edge of my scalp. But I pulled the *spring the moment my body approached the ground.
I didn't have time to see if I had hit the target, so I immediately turned over and rolled over the opposite rock. It wasn't until I avoided the firepower of the other party's relentless pursuit that I quickly glanced in the direction of the altar, where someone had already fallen in a pool of blood from my arrow through the chest.
Someone shouted, "Divide a few people and kill that kid." Three, five, you two go together. ”
As soon as the man's shout fell, I fell to the ground and put my ear to the ground. When I heard two footsteps moving in my direction, one left and one right, I immediately stood up and rushed to the opposite of one of them.
The other party didn't expect me to appear suddenly, and in just a moment's astonishment, the crossbow arrow in my hand was already off the string. The man on the left instinctively pounced into the distance when he saw me pull the reed, and I followed with a crossbow and shot an arrow at the path where the other man should have landed.
The crossbow bolts that left the string flew through the air, and the opponent's figure was also horizontal in the air, aiming his head at the tip of the arrow. The cold light of the crossbow bolt poured mercilessly from his temple into his brain. As scarlet blood burst out from above his head, the corpse that had been deflected by the crossbow arrow rolled over in the air and fell to the ground on its back. The other party still couldn't close his eyes until he landed.
I went from jumping out of the cover rock to killing with an arrow in just two or three seconds, and by the time the people reacted, I had jumped back into place.
The rest of the man couldn't help but exclaim, "No. 3, bastard......"
The surviving Five, in a rage, slammed in my direction. I crouched on the ground against the stone wall, clenched my long knife and silently counted the sound of the other person's footsteps, until the other person took the fifth step, and then I swept half a foot above the ground with all my might.
The other party instinctively thought that I would leave the original place and hide in the distance after the killing, but I didn't expect that I would crouch closer to him, and when he saw the cold light from my blade, it was too late to dodge.
What I didn't expect was that the No. 5 was also a fierce man who was not afraid of life and death, and he obviously saw the cold light flashing from my knife, but he didn't dodge into the distance, but directly sank his wrist and aimed the muzzle of the gun at the top of my head. Does he want to die with me?
There was a flash of fear in my head, but the fear that arose later could not change the fact that I had stabbed it, and I could only resign myself to it.
Xue Liang's blade instantly slashed into the opponent's neck bone, and before the sound of the knife breaking bones came, it was muffled by the violent gunfire. I obviously felt a sharp pain like a burning pain clung to my scalp, but I didn't have time to think about whether to be afraid, and the whole person fell on Five, one hand pressed the palm of the other man's gun, and the other hand grabbed the knife and cut his throat.
My waist knife is too long, and trying to grab the handle to kill will only leave room for the other person to struggle. I simply held the blade of the knife in my hand and cut the other person's throat. As blood spurted from his wounds, a cut was made in my palm.
I didn't care to see how badly wounded I was, so I quickly grabbed the No. 5 pistol and ducked back to where I was: "Aren't you trying to kill me?
The man who gave the order just now didn't expect to lose two of his subordinates in such a short period of time, and he was immediately furious: "No. 6, No. 7, you two go over and arrest him! Catch him alive, I will skin him with my own hands!"
The moment I heard footsteps in the distance, I took a deep breath and grabbed the pistol, but before I could make the next movement, I heard the man shout, "Come back alone!"
The moment the steps of the sixth and seventh stopped, I heard a screeching sound coming from the direction of the altar. If I'm not mistaken, it's the movement of the buttonhole rubbing against it.
Just because the python got stuck doesn't mean it won't struggle. Animals have a stronger instinct for survival than humans, and sometimes it is not scary to encounter a beast in the open field, at least they will not fight with people if they are able to escape. Truly terrifying are the hopeless and desperate beasts that will survive beyond human imagination, and can even turn despair into bloodthirsty slaughter - as was the case with the trapped python.
Dong Xiaowei's subordinates were originally pushing the altar with all their might, but since I appeared, they have been distracted and shooting, and with just one hand, they can at most keep the altar from reversing, and it is impossible for the giant python not to take advantage of the situation to fight back.
I heard the two men coming after me stop at the same time, and immediately leaned out and fired two shots at one of them, then retreated behind the rock. The other man then raised his gun and fired in my direction. As more than a dozen bullets crashed on the rocks one after the other, I heard screams in the distance.
The two shots I just fired must have hit someone, but they didn't kill him on the spot.
When I was about to attack again, I suddenly heard Dong Xiaowei shouting: "Wang Huan, how about we stop for the time being?" I guarantee the safety of your lives, and you don't make trouble for me again. That snake came out, and we're all in trouble. ”
I held my gun and laughed, "I want to stop now, it's too late! When I clean up your men, let's talk about something else!"
Dong Xiaowei's men are now trapped near the altar to be slaughtered, and when they have their hands freed, I will become lambs to the slaughter. At this time, can I bet that Dong Xiaowei is soft-hearted? If she is a good man and a woman, my classmates will not die one by one.
Dong Xiaowei said sharply: "Wang Huan, I know you don't believe me, but you should also consider the situation in front of us!"
While Dong Xiaowei was talking, the giant python suddenly let out a piercing scream - Dong Xiaowei's subordinates must have taken the opportunity to push the altar, if it wasn't for the blade cutting into the giant python's flesh, it wouldn't have screamed.
Without thinking about it, I dodged and fired two shots, and immediately someone fell at the foot of the altar when the shot rang out. This time I could see clearly that the two shots I fired in a hurry had both hits, one of whom had been killed instantly by a bullet through the head, and the other had not died, but had been pierced through the ribs by the bullet, and it was only a matter of time before he died.
Dong Xiaowei hurriedly shouted: "Wang Huan, you stop me! How can you believe me?"
I quietly withdrew my pistol and took a look, and there were only two bullets left in it. Ye Xun didn't have many crossbow arrows for me, and after a few consumptions, there was only one left, and I couldn't consume them anymore.
I shouted with a pistol: "Dong Xiaowei, if you are really sincere, just tie your hands and arrest it! With you in my hands, I can rest assured." ”
"Impossible!" Dong Xiaowei categorically refused, and the giant python let out a mournful sound again.
I said coldly: "Dong Xiaowei, you'd better let your people not move, otherwise I will really kill someone." ”
