Chapter 82: Seeking Rescue
"That's not right." Mi'er, with her sniper rifle, had the best eyesight and was the first to notice the small action of the rats: the rats were holding the corpses of their dead companions and pushing them into the wall of fire, trying to plug the oil in the ravine.
Strictly speaking, rat carcasses are also considered a type of combustible, but they do not burn as violently as oil, so the wall of fire also sways at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Gravity Ripple! Another gravitational twist flew the rat carcasses piled on the fiery oil gully. Peggy's multiple apparitions then burst out again, throwing the canister of fire oil into the corresponding gully, and successfully refueling.
The rats outside were obviously in turmoil, and if the mastermind behind the scenes was standing here, it was probably already crazy.
Even if he can manipulate countless rats that are not afraid of death, but in the face of this scoundrel's wall of fire + gravity tactics, there is no way for rats to be afraid of fire.
If the rat swarm can't get close, neither toxins nor plagues will come in handy, unless the mastermind behind the scenes breaks away from the rat swarm and personally launches high-level plague abilities from a distance, using airborne diseases to infect each other......
Looking at the rifle in Mi'er's hand, the man behind the scenes was speechless for a moment, and decided not to take the risk of being shot in the head. The speed of the bullet is much faster than the speed at which he can launch it.
Anyway, the 18 transcendent attendants of the Wolf family have all been eaten, and the extraordinary power in their bodies has greatly supplemented the extraordinary power of the rat colony, and it only takes a few hours to accelerate the breeding of more rats.
Then there is no need to compromise on these cunning mercenaries, and it is only right to attack the next town as soon as possible and strengthen his army of rats.
Gradually, the rats withdrew, disappearing into the darkness in the distance.
The mercenaries of the Cyan Sword, and the Weissbach family guards, looked at each other in the night.
The wall of fire in the distance was still burning, and the light of the fire made everyone's faces change inexplicably.
"Have they withdrawn?" Mia asked.
"It's not that for sure." Medea said, "Maybe just pretending to evacuate ......"
"Oh my God! They're not going to Mingxing City! With Eleanor's exclamation, the Weissbach family guards immediately became agitated.
If a rat swarm of this horror were to attack the Weissbach Palace...... So the elder brother and the father......
"Impossible! Eleanor, calm down! Sheila shouted, waking up the Eleanor of the six gods.
"If you think about it carefully, is there more rats in the mountains, or are there more rats in Mingxing City?"
"The reason why the other party didn't launch an attack in Mingxing City was because he was afraid of the demigods in your family!"
"That's what I said, that's what I said." Eleanor tried to calm down, "They don't dare to attack Mingxing City directly, but...... But they're going to attack other cities! ”
"If a large number of the lords in the principality are killed, then even if we solve the mastermind, how will our family resist the subsequent attack of the Wolf family?" She urged in an excited tone, "Asker, we must come back as soon as possible!" ”
"Eleanor!" Medea also said loudly, "Of course it is necessary to return help, but did you realize that it is night! Rats are nocturnal animals, what about us? Without enough light to illuminate, your clan guards won't even be able to see the road ahead! In case these rats kill a horse gun, without the protection of the fire wall and fire oil, you just take people to die! ”
"Then I can't sit back and wait!" Eleanor's voice trembled.
She suddenly remembered the dead mother and son in Constantinople, and the little girl who had died on the side of the road in Thessaloniki.
The picture in my mind, at the end, stayed at the little girl who gave her flowers in the village of Berg, her expression sincere and pure, completely unaware that the rest of her life might come to an abrupt end.
"If we don't hurry back, they, those innocent people......"
"Will you put the lives of your family leaders above the safety of your companions? Elinor! Medea snapped.
"I ...... I ......" Eleanor stepped back in despair, then suddenly looked up at Asker, and an anxious voice came from the helmet's speaker:
"Asker! You must have a way, right? The way to stop the rat swarm as soon as possible! The way to stop the mastermind! ”
She repeated hysterically, her voice trembling so violently that she almost collapsed.
Asker is also speechless, is this treating me as Doraemon? He pondered for a moment, then ordered:
"The Weissbach family guards here until dawn, and we will leave enough oil behind."
"The Green Sword, all of you set out with me to follow the traces of these rats."
"Asker!" Medea looked at him in disbelief, "Don't be impulsive! In this kind of dark night where you can't see your fingers......"
"Transport Aircraft Tactics." It only took five words for Asker to seal the words that followed her.
The so-called transport plane tactic, that is, all the people are teleported to the Hearth Island, and then the ancient book is carried by Mia. Mia retreated into the shadows and acted, and she was like a fish in water in this dark night.
The key to transport tactics is not to be exposed to others. Therefore, the Weissbach family guards could only stay here, while the Blue Sword and the others set off alone to find the traces of the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Yes, yes! That's right! Eleanor finally remembered, and cried with joy, "We have transport plane tactics!" We've got Mia! ”
Mia was embarrassed to say this, and showed a shy expression. Seeing that Eleanor was incoherent, Aske could only give Novo and Medea a look.
The former hurried up to comfort Eleanor, while the latter pulled out a fireball and projected it towards the dark road ahead.
Under the firelight, there really are no rat colonies.
Sidlifa walked at the forefront, using the frost ability to freeze a gap near the wall of fire, and the girls of the Blue Sword left one after another, and Medea made up a flame to rekindle the frozen oil again.
Walking to a place where the Weissbach family guards could not see, Medea and Noor opened their mental vision again, and after confirming that there were no lurking minds around them, everyone teleported back to Hearthfire Island.
Mia, on the other hand, escaped into the shadow realm and ran quickly on the mountain road.
Back on Hearthfire Island, Eleanor retreated from her power armor, her face pale in disbelief.
She grabbed No's shoulders tightly, and the latter gently hugged her, quietly activating the ability of "soul soothing":
"It's okay, Ellie, it's okay......"
With her soft voice, Eleanor finally calmed down and calmed down for a moment before gently pushing her away.
"I'm sorry, I'm so excited." She turned around and apologized to everyone for the gaffe just now, and then asked worriedly:
"Asker, where do you think the rats will go next?"
"They're going anywhere." "Because the rat colony can be diverted." ”
"You mean, all nearby towns will be attacked?" Eleanor bit her nails, "So what are we going to do?" We can't get to every town......"
"Well, we were going to deal with this on our own." Aske said, "Now it seems that the strength of the other side is probably beyond the scope of what we can handle." ”
"Higher levels, associated sequence abilities, are not a problem. The real problem is that the other party has been prepared, and the number of rats has far exceeded my pre-estimates. ”
"His body can switch between the rats at will, even if we find and kill the rats possessed by his body, he can be transferred to the other rats with just one thought, unless we kill all the rats, and with the current size of the rat colony, it is obviously completely unrealistic."
"So to be on the safe side, we need the help of your family's demigods to lock and seal the location of this mastermind before we can completely eliminate it."
"The next thing we need to do is not to rescue any town, but to go to the Weissbach Palace as soon as possible to ask for help."
