Chapter 20: The Inhumans
Explore the entrance to the post.
With a flash of blue light, Phil's figure appeared in the exploration post.
There were four guards guarding the entrance of the portal, and when they saw Phil and his party appear, the guards didn't even look at it, and still looked around with solemn faces.
There are only a few small tents in the fence, the largest tent is in the middle of the post, and there are teams patrolling the post from time to time.
The hill was overgrown with weeds, and from time to time two or three members of the exploration team sat on a large raised rock and roasted something, wisps of white smoke wafting from among them.
It seems that the exploration team is very bitter, Phil smacked his tongue, the strength of the players here is very low, and the average strength cannot be compared with their team, only the strength of the guards is slightly stronger, and they are all official knights.
A head poked out of a tent next to it, and when he saw that it was Komba and his group, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and walked over.
"You're here. ”
It was a middle-aged man with half-bald hair, he said with a wry smile.
"Garland, thank you for your hard work, you can go back. ”
Komba said with a laugh.
He slapped Jialan on the shoulder twice, and it seemed that the relationship between the two of them was still relatively deep.
"You're going to shoot me to death! I'm not as resistant as you young people. ”
Garland clutched his shoulders and said "oops" twice, rubbing his shoulders, then looking at Phil and saying.
"Seems to have a new member?"
"Yes, the family has strengthened us. ”
Komba also turned his head to look at Phil as Garland looked.
"This is Phil, our new member. ”
"Phil, this is Garland, the captain of the second exploration team. ”
Phil took a few steps forward and shook Garland's hand.
"Brother Phil, you must pay attention to safety, I heard that you have asked to do such a dangerous job not long after joining the family, which really makes me admire. ”
Garland shook Phil's hand vigorously and said.
"Okay, I'll take note, it's an honor to meet you, Captain Garland. ”
Phil smiled politely.
"Okay Jialan, there's not much nonsense, let's go back quickly, we're going to hunt. ”
Komba interrupted.
"Go ahead, stay safe, the Inhumans here are really restless. ”
Garland let go of Phil's hand and waved at the exploration team.
"I wish you all the best. ”
He nodded at Phil, then the rest of the team, turned and left.
The ground in the field was muddy, and Phil took two steps, his leg armor already splattered with mud. This greatly hinders the speed of the march, and many traces of Inhumans' movements will be wiped out by the rain.
However, in the rain, the water elemental magic will be enhanced a lot. There are three Warlocks in the Exploration Team, plus Phil is four, and the Warlocks are also dressed in uniform leather armor, but they are emaciated and protected in the middle of the team with their staffs.
At the head of the line was the Assassin, who was slender, but not weak on closer inspection, but with explosive power. His presence is extremely low, and he seems to be hidden in the shadows in the team, and he doesn't look at it.
Phil followed at the back of the group, along with two swordsmen.
"It would be nice to have horses, so I don't know how long it will take to meet the Inhumans. ”
The swordsman next to him sighed and whispered.
"Not to mention, there must be some purpose for the country to collect horses in the past, and if you go slower, you will be less in danger of meeting the Inhumans. ”
The other swordsman replied softly.
"Yes, I also made a windfall by selling a horse, which is very pleasant to think about. ”
The other swordsman glanced at him and didn't continue. Bullying Lao Tzu has no horses.
Why did the state want to levy horses on a large scale? They were all levied in the small town of Breel, and the gold coins spent on the national conquest of horses were a terrifying amount, and the horses that could be used for war were not cheap in the first place.
I don't understand what the state does.
"Found it! It should be not far ahead!"
Suddenly, the Assassin who was scouting in front shouted.
"Be vigilant! Be sure to listen to commands! Don't run around, the Inhumans are very cunning! Don't be left alone, or you will definitely die! Exterminate all the Inhumans tonight!"
Komba yelled back.
"Rab, be careful, the Inhumans should feel us too, don't let them be yin. ”
The man named Rab made an understanding gesture to the Assassin and led the group slowly.
"Nervous?"
The swordsman next to him turned to Phil and asked.
"I? a little bit. ”
Phil pursed his lips and replied.
"Relax, I was nervous when I first joined the exploration team, but the Inhumans last winter weren't so brutal at all, and I don't know what happened to them this year. ”
The swordsman comforted.
Phil nodded. To be honest, he wasn't really nervous about the current formation of the exploration team, but he was a little excited to meet Inhumans for the first time.
Phil was a little enthusiastic, and the feeling of hunting Inhumans should be different from killing people.
A few raindrops fell from the sky and hit his face, and he felt the cold touch on his face, and the raindrops were very biting as the temperature dropped.
Phil wiped the rain from his face.
On the nights of the past few days, there was no moon to be seen, only a blue disc was visible above the gray clouds, and dense and fine raindrops fell from the clouds.
In the moonlight, Phil inadvertently saw a black mass moving rapidly to his left.
Inhumans!
"They're coming!"
Phil shouted as he pointed the tip of his sword at the object to his left.
"In the east! in the east!"
"All on alert!
Komba heard Phil's roar and quickly reacted, commanding loudly.
The whole team immediately operated, Rab's figure flashed, and quickly appeared on the right side of the team from the front test of the team, the knight ran to the mage and the archer with a shield, there were three archers in the team, there were more knights, there were seven in total, and the remaining two were the two swordsmen behind the Phil Palace.
In total, more than twenty Inhumans appeared on the east side of the group.
Phil clearly saw that the leader of the Inhumans was a fourth-level Inhuman, and the aura it exuded was much stronger than that of the captain in the Misty Forest.
It has surpassed the threshold of the Glory Swordsman, almost reaching the realm of the Elite Swordsman, and it seems that this is the leader of the Inhuman Race's forward troops.
Phil's heart sank, and the exploration team was at a disadvantage in terms of maximum strength and numbers.
"There are twenty-four of them!"
Phil yelled.
He felt like he was the only one who could see the Inhuman forces in the distance.
"Oops!"
The swordsman behind him exclaimed.
"We've probably run into all the remnants of the Inhumans! The exploration team had already hunted more than twenty of them the other night, and the rest of the Inhumans had converged!"
"What? Does that mean the Inhuman Striker Leader is here, too?"
"Eight or nine are not far from ten, it seems that the deputy patriarch did not meet them, but was so easily encountered by us, or ......"
"Or maybe they deliberately avoided the hunt of the deputy patriarch, and have been waiting here for us who are weaker. ”
Phil took the swordsman's words and said in a deep voice.
His face was solemn, the remnants of the Inhuman forces were probably not something that this exploration team could deal with, and now they showed high discipline and intelligence.
Phil looked around.
There is no place to lean on the great plains, and when they fight, they will be surrounded by Inhumans.
It's been a long way now, and it's a long way from the exploration post. Only the place where the Inhumans rushed was a small concave pit, and if it weren't for their good eyesight, the exploration team would probably not be able to see the Inhumans advancing in the night.
According to the direction they are advancing, they will be directly killed by the Inhumans from the side, and the core mages will directly enter the attack range of the Inhumans.
Everyone underestimated the enemy, the intelligence was wrong, and they didn't expect that the forward troops that had been completely scattered would converge so easily, or......
There are moles.
Phil stared at Rab, who was standing in front of him with his half-crouched legs, he still didn't look at it, staring closely at the Inhumans who came to sneak attack, and his expression didn't change.
It's a bit hard to believe, and who would believe that a human would hook up with an Inhuman?
Phil buried his conjecture in his heart.
Now the situation is not bad, with his unknown combat power, I don't know if we can fight if we meet.
The Warlock had put up his energy shield, and the Knight was ready to defend.
It's a hard-fought head-to-head battle, and it's a good thing.
Phil clenched his sword.
The distance between the Inhumans is already less than two hundred meters.
"Archer prepare!"
"Warlock prepares!"
Komba raised his hand and shouted.
At this stage, the range of the archer is a little farther than that of the warlock, and the better archers can reach five hundred meters in the glory archer stage, and of course they must have a good bow, but unfortunately there is no glory archer in the team, and the range is only one hundred and fifty meters.
"Archer launch!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The arrows shoot at the Inhumans with a cracking sound.
Komba snapped his hand downwards and commanded.
The Inhumans have entered the range of archers, they are actually very different from the appearance of humans, the whole body is armed with hard armor, the slender arms are longer than the legs, only three claws like spikes, and there are twelve tentacles on the back, which are extremely tough, with super bullet speed, and are the main attack method of the Inhumans.
They don't move like humans, their legs are bent backwards like kangaroos, they bounce very well, their slender tails are not attackable, they are used to maintain balance, and their adducted ribcage is small, similar in appearance to the human chest bones.
The reason why they are called Inhumans is because they have eyes that are exactly like those of humans.
They have a flat layer of hard armor on their faces, no human noses, only two orifices for breathing, no mouths, and a pair of eyes above those two orifices just like those of humans.
As the Inhumans differ individually, so do their eyes.
It looks very weird overall.
Phil could already clearly see them running towards this place, dodging the flying arrows along the way, only one Inhuman was killed by the arrow headshot without dodging, and the rest of the Inhumans rushed towards the team at a constant speed.
In particular, the leader of the vanguard force, who was two laps larger than the other Inhumans, was charging towards the exploration team at great speed.
