Chapter 424: On Protracted War

Xu Yichen didn't know if he was lucky or unlucky, but it was obvious that the system was stuck at a very precise time point in the arrangement of the task.

If he had come early, he would most likely have encountered an enemy here that he could not defeat, and if he had come a few days late, he would have been killed by a steady stream of Nurgle's army.

But the system led him here, consciously or unconsciously, through a series of tasks, and appeared in front of the Corrupt Tree at the most opportune time.

Of course, it may be just a coincidence, but the Demon Hunter thinks that the possibility is too small, and this game and its own system must contain other secrets.

Only one thing is certain, it is the opposite of Chaos.

Xu Yichen dodged the attacks of various strange-shaped creatures with his agile steps, and from time to time, the special effect of the Flesh Ripper would be triggered, blasting a creature into a sky of blood.

He didn't know if he had a chance to make it back alive, but the Demon Hunter had always maintained the most efficient way of killing, conserving his stamina.

Xu Yichen vaguely remembers a joke that circulated in the military academy.

A general who did not understand military affairs was stopped by the king and asked a question: "What should we do if we have only 200,000 men and the enemy has sent 200,000?" ”

The general replied confidently: "One man fires one shot, my lord!" ”

"What if the enemy has 400,000 men?" The king continued.

"One person shoots twice!" The general replied as a matter of course.

This joke doesn't sound funny at all, but it fits Xu Yichen's appetite very well.

What if the enemy is more numerous than ours?

For the team led by Xu Yichen, this is the basic background of almost every mission, so he likes the way the general copes very much.

One person shoots one shot, and one enemy is solved.

Of course, there are times when he faces more enemies than they carry bullets, and most of the time they call in orbital strikes to solve the problem.

But the existence of political commissars always has to deal with some problems that ordinary soldiers and officers cannot handle, so they always bring a modern cold weapon to the battlefield.

The Demon Hunter wields the [Graceful Ripper], and one sword at a time is certainly the best situation, but most of the monsters bred by this corrupted tree in front of him have tenacious vitality.

One sword, two swords, three swords, explode for me!

Xu Yichen felt that he had wasted five seconds in the previous battle, and he relied on his own experience to judge that the opponent's brain and heart were the vital positions, but he was wrong.

The monster didn't have a vital point at all, what he should have done was to cut off the other party's sickle foot that could cause damage, and then let it slowly bleed to death on the ground.

As a direct consequence of this mistake, three enemies crossed his line and directly threatened the shooters behind him.

Fortunately, neither Legolas nor Radia are pure shooters who are helpless, and when they face danger, they can also use their melee weapons to solve problems.

However, their rhythm was disrupted, and the Demon Hunter lost more than ten seconds of ranged attack support, which directly doubled the number of enemies in front of him.

Fortunately, the caster of the Al Clan unleashed a large expanse of ice spikes once more, leaving corpses all over the place, and this was the fourth time he had unleashed such a spell.

Even the caster couldn't instantaneously cast a spell of this magnitude indefinitely, so the black gem set in the armorman's massive metal staff shattered into worthless slag.

Xu Yichen was covered in [Pure Fire], and psionic attacks from enemies could hardly have any effect on him, but for others, it was different.

Legolas suddenly felt the air around him condense, pressure coming from all directions, and he gritted his teeth and stepped back, rising up again in mid-air as if there were an invisible staircase waiting for him!

This is the talent that Legolas acquired when his perceptual attribute was promoted to the Transcendental, which the natives call Transcendental Strength, and is the greatest secret of every Transcendent.

He could feel the strongest point in space when he needed it, and he could only perceive it once in every twenty breaths.

It's a very practical power for a shooter, and it's given him a positional advantage countless times.

This time, it saved his life, as Legolas suddenly sensed that the space around him was full of points to borrow, something he hadn't encountered in the decades since he advanced to transcendence.

So Legolas decisively left there, and in the next second, the position where he had been standing collapsed violently.

The surrounding corpses, the dirt seemed to be grasped in the palm of the palm by an invisible big hand, and they grabbed it fiercely, and even the air made a cracking sound.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The first sound was the sound of the air crackling, and the sound behind it was the sound of a monster that had just crawled out of the fruit, and after releasing its power, it was bursting with ubiquitous psionic energy.

The Demon Hunter didn't even get a good look at the monster before it exploded into shards, apparently not yet fully developed to withstand its own strength.

Xu Yichen was glad that he didn't delay too much time on the road, otherwise he wouldn't be facing this kind of semi-finished product.

"Legolas, when will reinforcements from our mysterious ally appear?" He shouted at the elven knight who had escaped with his life, and kicked off the shin of a monster.

The enemy in front of him, one leg is powerful, while the other is a little stunted and slender, under the attack of the demon hunter, the bone stubble inside directly punctures the skin, losing its support.

Xu Yichen didn't waste any more time on it, it had already lost its ability to fight.

The elven knight quickly communicated with the spellcaster, then turned to the demon hunter and said, "He said, hold on for a while, this place is locked, and their people can't come directly." ”

"I don't know what he means, but it's coming soon!" Legolas was distracted by the meaning of the ancient elven words as he rained death, "Do you have a better way?" ”

Xu Yichen shook his head, he had no better way, he continued to maintain a one-person defense line, a thin but by no means fragile defense line.

One man, one sword, one sword, one kill, even if no reinforcements arrived, he believed that he would be the final victor.

Because he will never give up and will not stop.
