Chapter 57: Heartbeat
Seeing that someone was rushing towards the rocket, Lei Xiu was stunned for a moment, then his spirit was lifted, and after a loud shout, he also jumped up, took out the two daggers that had just been created from his waist, and drew countless afterimages in the air, either picking or splitting, picking all the rockets around him elsewhere, or folding them into two sections.
And the figure that jumped up one step ahead of him was condensed in the air with a huge cyan giant bird phantom, and if you look closely, this phantom is completely composed of cyan wind blades, exuding a sharp and domineering aura.
"Where did the villain come from, he actually attacked in the middle of the night, and he has the ability to come brightly!
With a crisp and pleasant sound sounded, the blue bird phantom suddenly seemed to come to life, slashing a graceful arc in the air, and roared towards a large rain of arrows, all the arrows were destroyed in the phantom, just looking at the might, it was ten times stronger than Lei Xiu.
Due to the blocking of the Blue Bird Phantom and Lei Xiu, there were very few rockets that could be shot into the camp, and at this time, all the people of the Tianfeng Merchant Group had already walked out of the tent, and under the timely response, there was no loss, but a few frightened horned eagles fluttered their wings and flew around, and it took some effort.
But the crisis was not resolved, after the rocket, suddenly a large number of black-clothed people with masked faces poured out from all directions, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, and rushed over with murderous energy.
Seeing the man in black coming, Liu Gang, who was already dressed neatly, shouted, "The ninth and tenth groups protect the camp, the first to seventh groups will join me to kill the enemy, and the eighth group will provide backup support, and slaughter all these unsightly things for me!"
Everyone agreed, and then in groups of ten, seven groups of men and horses formed seven triangular battle formations, and greeted the black-clothed men who were coming.
The combat effectiveness of this group of black-clothed people is not weak, and many of them are demon fighters, and the colorful fighting spirit rises and falls, brilliant and dazzling, but the fighting quality of the Tianfeng Shangtuan people is higher, although there are not many masters who can block one side alone, but they cooperate with each other skillfully, and after forming a battle array, it is even more lethal, and the seven triangular battle arrays are like seven huge slaughterhouses, and the black-clothed people who will commit crimes will be dragged by their side until the other party falls to the ground.
Lei Xiu looked at the bloody scene in front of him, and felt an uncomfortable feeling in his heart, this was the first time he saw someone kill and be killed in front of him, although he had long been mentally prepared to face this situation, but when he really saw it, he was inevitably still a little uncomfortable.
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded in his ears, "Lei Xiu, thank you for your help, but there are a few masters in the west who are not weak, can you help contain them for a while?" β
Lei Xiu turned his head to look, only to see Qin Mo walking to his side at some point, and was looking at him with a smile at this time.
Looking at Lei Xiu's appearance, Qin Mo's eyes showed a different color, and he said softly, "Is it the first time you see someone killed?" It's okay, just get used to it in the future, hehehehe, I remember the first time I saw someone kill someone and almost fainted with fright, but when you saw the second time, the third time and even killed someone yourself, you felt that it was nothing." β
I didn't expect Qin Mo, who was gentle and elegant in appearance, to say such a thing, Lei Xiu couldn't help but feel a chill rise in his chest and abdomen, and laughed dryly, "Mr. Qin Mo, I didn't expect you to look so polite, it turned out that you were also a master, and it seems that there are many people who died in your hands." β
Qin Mo waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'm not a master, I'm not proficient in martial arts, not even a black iron grade demon fighter, but killing people, it's not just killing people with martial arts, there are too many means, how about it, Lei Xiu, can you help us with this?"
Lei Xiu's face sank, his eyes slowly closed, but when he opened them again, he nodded slightly, clenched the dagger with both hands, and rushed in the direction that Qin Mo said.
It wasn't until Lei Xiu rushed into the battlefield that a clear female voice sounded behind Qin Mo, "After all, he is the person we take care of, and he is also a novice who has never killed anyone, so let him go to the battlefield, if there is a mistake, isn't Hambok afraid that he will not be able to explain?"
Qin Mo seemed to have known that someone was behind him, and he didn't turn around when he heard the words, and said with a faint smile, "It's okay, with you watching here, he will be injured at most, and he won't die, I'm just wondering, we didn't stop much along the way, and we didn't leave any traces, how could these people find our location so accurately?"
The female voice seemed to think for a moment, and then said suspiciously, "Are you suspicious of him?"
Qin Mo shook his head and said, "I was suspicious at first, but since he can block the rain of arrows with you, my suspicions are much less, and the most important thing is that he is indeed a novice, if someone wants to ambush us, he will not send such a child with strong martial arts skills but has never killed anyone to be an undercover agent." β
The female voice agreed, "Yes, if it weren't for his help, the rain of arrows just now, although it wouldn't have caused us much damage, but casualties would definitely not have been avoided, and his martial arts skills are very good, he is already close to the silver level, only a step weaker than me, it would be too wasteful to use this kind of young master as an undercover agent." β
Qin Mo smiled and said, "Yes, I think so too, it seems that it shouldn't be Han Boke's problem, it's that we have a spy inside, hehe, it seems that it's time to reorganize the team again." β
The female voice sighed softly and then said in a cold voice, "We must find out who leaked our whereabouts as soon as possible, we must not miss this mission!"
"Yes, I already have a suspicion in my mind, and I will solve it before dawn at the latest. β
After saying this, Qin Mo's expression remained unchanged, and the corners of his mouth still maintained a smile, but a cold killing intent flashed in his eyes.
On the battlefield located on the west side of the hillside, Lei Xiu was undergoing a transformation at this time, in fact, when Qin Mo asked him just now, he thought about refusing, but finally agreed, because Roger once told him that there is a big gap between a demon fighter who has killed and a demon fighter who has not killed anyone. A demon fighter who is good at killing can often take out a stronger master than him, and he will never be able to become a true warrior without experiencing death.
Although he has always told himself in his heart that he must be ruthless, and killing a few people is nothing, until he really does it, Lei Xiu still can only be heavy-handed, but he can't kill him.
Under his dagger, there were already three black-clothed men who had lost their ability to fight, and as soon as these people fell to the ground, they were mercilessly killed by the rest of the Tianfeng Merchant Group, one of whom was killed by Mu Feng.
After killing the man in black, Mu Feng, who usually looked inconspicuous, gently wiped away the blood splashed on his face, and said a word to Lei Xiu coldly.
"What do you think is the difference between this and killing them with your own hands? In my opinion, you're just saving time washing your hands. β
Watching Mu Feng turn around and join the battle group again, Lei Xiu looked at the dagger in his hand blankly, and Mu Feng's words couldn't help but echo in his mind, yes, is this different from killing them with his own hands? Could this be able to cover up his murderous behavior? In the final analysis, it was just a lie to himself.
Just when Lei Xiu's mind was in a mess, a man in black suddenly rushed towards him, this man in black was the strongest one in the group of people who attacked, and he was also a silver demon fighter of the gold system, causing great casualties to the people of the Tianfeng Merchant Group.
This man in black also saw Lei Xiu's extraordinaryness just now, so he freed his hand to kill Lei Xiu first, he was holding a silver-bladed giant sword, and the golden fighting spirit was very eye-catching in the dark night, but whenever there was a person from the Tianfeng Business Group and his giant sword, the weapon would be split into two pieces, vomiting blood and retreating, which could be called invincible.
Seeing a strong enemy attacking, Lei Xiu hurriedly put aside his distracting thoughts and concentrated on dealing with the first Silver Demon Fighter opponent he had encountered since leaving the town.
"Bang!" A pair of daggers and giant swords collided in an instant, but there was no crisp sound of the gold and iron clashing, but a dull popping sound.
Then, Lei Xiu and the man in black flew backwards at the same time, and it looked like a comparable situation.
However, Lei Xiu's face sank, after a short battle just now, he knew that the strength of the opponent in front of him was indeed above him, but his strength was greater, and he also had the attack power blessing of a stack of elemental equipment, which seemed to be evenly divided, but the Silver Demon Fighter was more powerful than just strength.
The eyes of the black-clothed man on the opposite side also showed a look of surprise, although he had already seen that the young man on the other side had a good strength, but he should not have reached the silver level, but in the competition of pure strength just now, he couldn't suppress the other party, which proved that this little guy who was a little too young had far surpassed the opponent of the same level at least in terms of strength.
The elemental equipment in the opponent's hand was also very extraordinary, when the two weapons came into contact just now, he obviously noticed that the quality of the two daggers was still above his giant sword, and the opponent's fighting spirit was nearly doubled in an instant, almost making him suffer a big loss.
"Is it a stack of elemental equipment?"
The look of surprise in his eyes dissipated, replaced by a touch of cruelty and greed, the man in black smiled, and the golden fighting qi on his body disappeared like the ebb tide of the sea, as if he was exhausted, but the silver-bladed giant sword in his hand was getting brighter and brighter, as if it had been injected with an inexplicable force.
Lei Xiu's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, the white arc had already wrapped around his body, and his spirit was more concentrated than ever. The black-clothed man's whole body fighting qi dissipated not because he lacked fighting energy, but because he condensed all his fighting energy on the surface of his skin and on the giant sword, without the slightest leakage, this realm is called "condensation", which can condense all the fighting energy of the whole body together, and there will be no dissipation and waste, but this kind of skill can only be done perfectly by a silver-grade demon fighter, and it has greatly improved attack power, defense, speed and sustained power.
The man in black held the sword in both hands, slammed his right foot on the ground, and the whole person turned into a weightless afterimage and rushed towards Lei Xiu again, although the momentum did not seem to be as big as before, but the threat level increased several times.
This time, Lei Xiu didn't make a hard connection, and launched the Thunder Shadow footwork to dodge the past, and the giant sword almost grazed the tips of his hair and slashed into the ground, dragging it down with the strength of the man in black, drawing a crack nearly five meters long.
His eyes shrank, Lei Xiu secretly exclaimed, although the crack cut by the man in black looked small, but it was extremely deep, this was the terrifying destructive power caused by the extreme condensation of power, if this giant sword slashed through his body, it would never be more laborious than cutting a piece of tofu.
Although a stack of elemental equipment in his hand can greatly narrow the gap with the opponent's strength, the giant sword in the hand of the man in black is obviously not ordinary, not to mention that Lei Xiu suspects that this man in black is a master even among the Silver Demon Fighters.
The man in black immediately launched a continuous attack as soon as he missed, and the silver-bladed giant sword was like a fluttering leaf in his hand, outlining countless sword shadows in the night, each sword shadow blooming with a strong killing intent.
Under the opponent's fierce attack, Lei Xiu used his Thunder Shadow footwork with all his might, relying on his extraordinary speed to dodge dangerously and dangerously, which seemed dangerous, but he could still support it in a short time.
After a long time of attacking, a touch of anxiety and ruthlessness flashed in the eyes of the man in black, I saw that he suddenly inserted the tip of the sword into the ground, and then took a deep breath, pressed his hands hard, and the giant sword was suddenly inserted into the ground, without the hilt of the sword, just as Lei Xiu looked at the man in black in surprise, not knowing what the other party was going to do, a golden sword light suddenly broke through the ground and shot directly into his chest and abdomen, and the speed was much faster than the arrow.
Lei Xiu's expression was shocked and he desperately dodged, almost twisting his waist, and finally avoided the fate of passing through his abdomen, but the position under the ribs was still cut by the sword light A not shallow wound.
After seeing Lei Xiu's injury, the man in black's eyes were shining, and he let out a deep sigh in his mouth, accompanied by his voice, the second and third, more and more sword lights broke through the ground one after another, shooting towards Lei Xiu like countless golden thorns.
Seeing that the golden sword light attacked, any one of them had the power to kill himself, Lei Xiu was highly nervous, and he actually entered the state of encountering the killer for the first time in Golden Shield City again, under the calm thinking and sense like a ten-thousand-year-old iceberg, the time around him seemed to slow down, and the trajectory of the golden sword light was like a slow motion moving forward one grid at a time.
Although he didn't know why he had entered this state, now was obviously not a good time to think about it, Lei Xiu unfolded his body, quickly dodged these sword lights, and escaped from the man's lore in black again.
"How is that possible!"
Seeing that Lei Xiu had escaped his nirvana, the man in black, who had been silent, blurted out this sentence with wide eyes.
"It's impossible, even the Silver Demon Fighter can't have this kind of speed, how did this guy do it?"
In the disbelieving gaze of the man in black, Lei Xiu in front of him seemed to have turned into a disembodied lightning, moving back and forth in countless golden lights, and he cracked his trick with his super high speed.
Until Lei Xiu dodged all the sword light and stopped, the shock in the eyes of the man in black still did not dissipate, and just when he was stunned, a life-threatening cold arrow quietly came out from behind him, and the man in black looked at the cluster of arrows that penetrated his chest in surprise, and suddenly turned around in anger, holding the giant sword in his right hand, and was about to throw it in the direction of the cold arrow, but at this time, two crystal transparent daggers pierced out of his back again, and blood flowed out of the clear and sharp tip of the sword, but in an instant, it was solidified into blood-colored ice marks by the cold aura on the daggerγ
The man in black slowly turned his head, and looked at Lei Xiu, who was gasping for breath, and reluctantly raised his hand to attack again, but when he was halfway up, the whole person had already fallen, and his eyes were still round when he died, full of disbelief.
Lei Xiu was stunned and looked at the man in black who had turned into a corpse in front of him, and suddenly looked up to the east, only to see a slender figure half-squatting on a tree not far away, still maintaining the posture of bending the bow and shooting arrows, just looking at him.
The black hair reaches to the waist, the skin is like snow, the facial features are delicate as if they have been carved out by a clever craftsman, and the bumpy figure is tightly wrapped in a pale cyan samurai robe, if it weren't for the night wind blowing the black hair, Lei Xiu would almost think that this is a beauty who came out of the painting.
It's just that this stunning beauty's bright eyes at this time revealed a strong murderous aura, and when matched with her beautiful face, it formed a unique feminine aura.
Suddenly, Lei Xiu forgot the discomfort of killing just now, and felt that his heart was throbbing, and it was beating faster and faster, and an unprecedented feeling instantly filled his whole body, making him just want to look at people in the distance, just like that, forever.
