Chapter 347: Fighting in the Dark

Sit by the fire.

The four of them passed the time leisurely.

Barrett ate the strips of meat one by one.

Ace just looked at him and rejected Barrett's hand.

Jason scratched his ears and cheeks, and the lack of cigarettes made him a little absent-minded.

Nightblade kept looking at the waterway, his vigilance at the strongest.

"Damn, I knew I was bringing some wine too!" Jason complained that he was uncomfortable being idle.

The sun is setting and the moon is rising.

The little beasts that have gone out to forage for food will soon return to their nests, and the hunters who hunt will also leave their nests.

Beasts have a clear division of labor, with small beasts generally hunting other beasts or humans who are not capable of fighting, while adult beasts will come out at night to attack more threatening targets, such as caravans or villages.

However, there are quite a few guards in the town now, and they usually avoid it.

"These little beasts are going to be put back?" Barrett didn't know what professionals do, he asked.

Dealing with the hunters by sealing off the main passage and waiting for them to emerge from the overflow can indeed greatly reduce the threat, but if the little beasts also come down from the waterway, won't they have to suffer from the enemy?

"Those things aren't worth much." Jason bared his teeth and said that he was very realistic, and he was not willing to do things without money.

"The guy with the claw will definitely let them in, so that there will only be one exit to come out, and as long as we keep the fire, the little beast will not dare to come up." Jason looks like he's done quite a bit of this before, including the fire in a specially chosen location.

"As long as we make sure that the fire is not extinguished, we are not in any danger, and tonight is a good time to make money."

Nightblade shook his head, he was a little worried, but Jason was a veteran after all, and he had to admit it.

Ace didn't express any objections, still looking sullen.

Barrett nodded, he already understood the tactics, and I have to say that it is quite reasonable.

As he spoke, Nightblade suddenly made a silent motion.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, there was a sound from the waterway, and it was the little beasts who had returned.

Shuffle......

The sound of falling rocks made several people's hearts tighten, and Jason picked up his stick.

"I'm the main attack with Barrett, and you two hold the fire, is there a problem?" The battle is imminent, Jason said.

Nightblade and Ace both shook their heads, both of them were good at fighting from afar, so it was just right to guard the fire.

The torch is placed next near the fire, which is ready to be lit at any time to be used as a light source.

Gradually, countless green points of light emerged from the darkness, some tall and some short.

These are the eyes of the little beasts, although they know that the fire can play a considerable intimidating role, several people are still psychologically hairy.

"Fuck, that's a lot!" Moving a few steps in the direction of the little beast, Jason stood on the periphery of the fire's light source.

"You hold that passage, and these guys will choose where they can easily escape."

Barrett nodded, allowing the beast to naturally retreat from Jason's side, blocking the hunter.

In this case, only one side of the adult beast will be drilled, and the pressure will be much clearer.

Boom! Boom!

There was a sound of crashing wooden planks at the entrance of the working face, but it had already been reinforced with short piles, and it would not be possible to break it for a while.

"It's coming!" Barrett reminded that Nightblade and Ace tightened their weapons as well.

The red light flashed, and the first beast burrowed out of the spill!

With a flash of the knife, Barrett stabbed it through the neck with a dagger and flung it far away.

He couldn't let a dead body block the exit, so he could reduce the pressure on the work surface.

Jason whistled appreciatively, this guy is a good helper, if he can cooperate, he must be a good partner to make money.

With the agitation of the hunters, the small beasts also began to make their way to the lair, but due to the arrangement of the fire first, they were forced to the overflow instead of the usual wide passage.

Whining.........!

They roared, but they didn't dare to step forward, for the big stick in the hand of the lean man was full of flesh and blood of the same kind.

"Get out, little ones, you are worthless, don't waste your uncle's physical strength!" Although his eyes were on the beasts, he was secretly watching Barrett's battle.

Until now, Barrett has been as accurate as a machine, one knife at a time!

No matter how he racked his brains to seduce and deceive, he would not be fooled at all.

Tentative dodge, two or three tried to drill out of the hole together, but they couldn't change their fate at all, and they were stabbed to death outside the hole by him!

Jason's face was also moved, in the previous battle, this kid was obviously paddling, this guy is a professional fighter.

In fact, it wasn't Barrett paddling, but Jason was so skilled that the lone beast couldn't pose a threat at all, but only two sneak attacks made Barrett move.

Now that it's just turned, Barrett has become the main attacker, and he naturally won't keep his hand anymore.

The blade sliced through the trachea of a beast accurately, and Barrett reached out and grabbed its left paw, flung it out with all his might.

Falling into the corner, it only took a few wrestling strokes for the beast to die.

Even their landing points are amazingly accurate, piled up into a small mountain, and none of them deviate.

............Nightblade and Ace's faces turned pale, they had never seen such a terrifying warrior, not even Jason, who could not do such a precise and mechanical way of fighting.

And at this time, Barrett's mental power has reached a point where he can never reach it before, he doesn't feel any confusion at all, maybe the darkness has some influence on others, but for him, even the beast on the other side of the wall has nothing to hide.

So it's like with the clair-through plug-in, Barrett can see everything in the vicinity with just mental perception!

This ability is Laifei's, Barrett thought to himself, and he didn't know if he could contact her, at least let them be at ease!

Although there were many thoughts in his mind, his hand never stopped.

Especially when he used a half-meter-long dagger --- machete in his hand, cut off a beast directly with one sword, and then flew to the hill with two kicks in mid-air, which really frightened the three people behind him.

"What the hell is this for? Even the elite of the guards can't do it with such ease...... "The first to express his opinion was Nightblade, and since the little beasts didn't dare to break into the range of the fire, he had nothing to do at all.

Instead, Ace shot a hunter with a submachine gun trying to get out of the passage against the beast.

Barrett could see the beast behind the wall, and he was worried.

There were hundreds of beasts behind the wall, and gradually some of the guys with claw traps were approaching.

"Watch out for the planks." Barrett cautioned that claw sleeves can cause considerable damage to the planks.

"Got it." Ace drew his melee weapon, an awl-like rappier.

Barrett's movements were getting faster and faster, and the speed at which the beast came out was noticeably faster.

The beasts coming from behind clearly had an instinct for command, and they began to urge the beasts in front of them to attack.

Nightblade and Ace began to work, as the planks began to shatter in all directions, and skulls and claws slammed through the boards.

Fortunately, before they could expand their gains, they were greeted by deadly crossbow arrows and stabbing attacks.

Nightblade and Ace are not vegetarians, and their precise attacks always kill these guys in the first place, forcing the beasts behind them to bite and drag the corpses out of the hole.

"That group of guys can command the cannon fodder in front." Barrett reminded, no one but him could see behind the wall, and the commanders were visibly impatient, preparing to go into battle themselves.

At this moment, four people smelled a bad smell at the same time!

Fresh air?? The earthy air poured in along the waterway.

"Not good! It's raining outside! Hold on to the fire! Jason immediately ran towards the minecart, he was going to find dirt.

Originally, there was a cistern in the aqueduct, and the pump did not allow water to enter at will, and could even drain out.

It's a pity that it has fallen into disrepair for so many years, and now it's all just scrap metal.

The waterproof concrete wall had long since cracked large cracks, and rainwater poured into the entrance of the pit almost unobstructed.

Karma hid in the carriage, watching the rain pour in, and he was also secretly anxious, he was not in a hurry for anything else, but for money.

He threw a lot of money into this mission, and spent several gold coins on weapons and equipment alone.

Before these guys could make any money, they died in it, and his investment was all in vain.

"Thief God! It's raining at this time! ”

At this time, Barrett and the others all heard the sound of water, and the water was flowing down the waterway.

Jason jumped up and down, but there was nothing to hold the water out, no dirt, sand and gravel.

"With corpses!" Barrett drank, at this time, he didn't care about any money or money, once the fire source was cut off, I was afraid that none of the four people would be able to escape.

Suddenly coming to his senses, Jason picked up the corpses piled aside and rushed to the fire.

In fact, it is not necessary to completely seal the fire, as long as a barrier is formed and the water flows down the overflow into the work surface.

"Your grandma, it's all money!" Throwing the carcass of the beast outside the fire and besieging the city, Jason scolded.

"Only by surviving can you have a life!" Nightblade complained that he couldn't keep up with the beast because the bolts were depleting quickly.

But he could not leave the fire, and in case something happened, he had to take on the task of lighting the torch.

The rainwater finally overflowed down the aqueduct, but fortunately the upper reservoir was still functioning, and the rainwater was just overflowing, and there was no impact.

However, as the rainwater overflowed, the rainwater gradually became an inch deep near the preparation room, and gradually spread towards the entrance of the work face.

The carcass of the beast was gradually soaked in water.

Fortunately, the fur of these beasts has oil in them, and they are naturally waterproof.

Barrett's foot was already in the ankle-length water, and the sound of rushing water came from the overflow in front of him, and the rain was running down the ramp.

Just the corpses alone could not completely stop the flooding, and the waterline was approaching the fire.

Laugh at! …………

All of a sudden, the outermost fire dimmed a lot, and it seemed that the water had invaded the fire.

The little beasts who had not yet made it into the passage were in a commotion, and the fading light of the fire emboldened them.

A few of the darers tried to get past the circle of corpses and toward the fire inside.

I heard a strong wind sweep by, and the three little beasts were beaten out of the way.

Jason chased them away, or flew them to be exact.

"! It's not good, sooner or later the fire won't be able to hold on! Jason said that the first fire had been extinguished.

I can't go up, because even the safety ladder has a green light, and it's a little beast that has taken a shortcut to come back.

With a glance, Barrett found the electrical repair lane.

"Shall we withdraw there? That door should be waterproof! "Indeed, in order to prevent flooding, the electrical repair channels are waterproof, otherwise the power will soon be lost first.

After hesitating for more than ten seconds, in fact, he was reluctant to pay the money on the ground, and Jason made up his mind.

"Alright! We can only wait for the water to recede! He ran towards the pit lane.

Nightblade picked up two torches and lit them, and followed.

However, Ace and Barrett can't just leave their positions, otherwise the beast will immediately catch up.

"Ugh! .................." grabbed the doorknob hard and pulled it out, Jason's muscles exploded in both hands, and his face was also exposed.

Years of rust had made the iron door so strong that even the muscular Jason could only open a small crack.

"Hand on!!" Jason drank it, and he felt the muscles in his arm crack, and it hurt hotly.

Unfortunately, Nightblade wasn't a power hunter, and even if he tried to open the iron door with a stake, it would be useless.

Barrett snapped the neck bone of a beast that had bitten him into the neck, and rushed over with a few steps.

Seeing this, Ace immediately followed, he knew that if he walked slowly, he was afraid that he would stay here!

Barrett jumped up and kicked towards the stake.

Click!!

The stub made an overwhelmed crunch and broke in two.

Fortunately, Barrett, who is 1.8 meters tall, has burly muscles that are not ornaments, and the impact force actually broke the iron door open!

Grabbing Jason, who was flashed out by the force of the sudden opening of the iron door, Barrett casually threw him in.

really threw it in, and Jason, who weighed more than 200 pounds, flew straight into it like a rag doll in his hand.

Nightblade skewed around and followed Barrett's ribs into the pit.

Ace, who was running behind, didn't forget to turn around and beat the beast that was following closely with his submachine gun into a sieve, and flashed into the road.

Barrett slammed the iron door shut, and the passage was pitch black except for the torch in Nightblade's hand.

"My waist ............," Jason groaned.

"I've got some medicine here." Ace muttered, and he took a torch and walked into the passage.

Nightblade looked at Barrett and smiled, "Your strength is much stronger than your appearance. ”

He knew Jason's weight.

Outside the passage, there was the sound of claws and knives striking the iron door, and the beasts began to attack the iron gate.

It's a pity that this kind of waterproof door is unusually strong, but it's just useless.

"It's a pity, those corpses are going to be eaten." Wound medicine is applied to his arm, and Jason is lying on the ground to let Ace be drugged.

“………… You can still take care of these ......" Nightblade was a little amused.

"Aren't we asking for teeth and claws?" Barrett asked curiously, even if the meat was eaten, these two should still be there.

"............" The other three looked at each other, this guy not only has amazing strength, but also a sober and scary mind.

Shaking his head, Barrett said, "We'd better go inside, these guys are starting to dig into the wall." ”

The beasts seemed to have some sensitivity, and they knew that the concrete wall next to them was easier to deal with than the iron gate.

Although they didn't know how Barrett knew, the other three stood up and agreed with him.
