Chapter 177: No One Found
With this sound, countless arrows struck again, these mercenaries were unprepared, and were immediately killed by direct shots, and some of them were extremely seriously injured although they reacted to avoid the vital point.
These arrows are extremely powerful, at least twice as powerful as the arrows of ordinary human archers, and their hard leather armor is cut directly like cutting tofu, and being hit by such a huge force of arrows, even if they are not killed, they are absolutely seriously injured.
However, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that after this round of shooting, they did not even see the shadow of the enemy, and after one shot, all these shooters were hidden, and there was no trace at all.
Assassin? But how could an Assassin have such a great art of archery? And, how could there be so many?
If it weren't for the Assassins, how could these archers disappear immediately after shooting their arrows, without a trace?
It's not that these mercenaries have never seen the world, but in the deep forest where there is no sunlight, some of their abilities cannot be used, so it is inevitable that there will be some fear in their hearts.
"It's an archer, an elven archer. They can hide in a place where there is no sunlight, so we can't see them. Captain Matt said suddenly.
He was a fourth-order fighter, his eyesight was much stronger than that of ordinary people, although it was only a brief moment just now, he also saw the shadows of some elven archers.
If he was only attacked by archers, he was not afraid, as long as these archers dared to show their faces, with the strength of his fourth-order powerhouse, he could definitely kill more than a dozen in a row.
However, the fact that these archers hid as soon as they had finished shooting an arrow and stopped attacking made it a bit difficult for him. Finding invisible units can be a headache for anyone.
What's more, there are dozens, if not hundreds, of elves here.
"So what do we do now?" These mercenaries felt that they were all stared at by a pair of eyes, and at any moment a feathered arrow could come and take their lives.
This fear of the unknown made them a little nervous. If it is a frontal battlefield slash, they have no fear, but when it comes to fighting such an invisible enemy, anyone will be afraid.
This is why the Assassins on this continent are so feared.
"Search, a few people are a small team, search them out. Elves' archery skills are indeed very powerful, but their melee ability is not very strong, and the worst among us are also second-order fighters, as well as assassins and magicians, are you afraid that they will not succeed? As long as we find them, we can easily kill them. Matt said coldly.
At this time, he showed the adaptability and command ability that a captain should have.
When the mercenaries heard Matt say this, they immediately stabilized their minds, put down the elves, and then divided into several teams to search for traces of the elves.
However, after searching for a while, they could not find any trace of the elves. In this deep mountain, there are trees, bushes and weeds everywhere, and you have to look for a long time to hide someone in any place, let alone an elf who can escape.
Yes......
At this moment, a scream rang out violently in the woods, producing several echoes, floating back and forth, which was creepy.
All the mercenaries immediately felt their hairs stand on end, and they immediately rushed to the place where the sound came from, only to find that one of the members of the squad had been pierced through the heart by an arrow and died directly.
"See a figure?" They immediately asked the rest of the team.
"I saw a figure, but after chasing it, it was gone, and they moved very quickly." The few team members who didn't die said with some frustration.
Their teammates are killed in front of them, and they can't do anything about it, which makes them feel powerless.
Yes......
At this time, another terrible howl sounded, and the mercenaries rushed over again, only to find that one of the mercenaries of another squad had been shot dead, and they still couldn't find any trace of each other.
They could see a figure flashing by, but when they caught up with it, they couldn't find anyone.
Yes...... Yes...... Yes......
At this time, a series of miserable howls sounded, and the mercenaries rushed over again, only to find that this time the mercenaries were not killed by arrows, but by knives.
Several mercenaries were directly split in half, and blood flowed from their internal organs.
"What's going on? Why can't you even see a shadow of them? There are a few of these people who are third-order fighters. Who could kill five third-order fighters in such a short period of time? ”
If the elves' strange and unpredictable arrow sneak attack just now made them worry in their hearts, now they don't know who killed the five third-order fighters directly and instantly, which directly caused them to have an inexplicable fear in their hearts.
There was no way, they couldn't find each other's shadows, which gave them the ability to fight, but nowhere to use it.
Yes......
At this time, there was another scream, and when they rushed over, they found a corpse lying there, pierced through the heart by a feather arrow. And this corpse was originally an assassin.
"Our Assassins? How could our assassins have been killed? He can be invisible, good at stealth? We can't find them, why can they find us? ”
The mercenaries grew even more frightened.
They are all strong, but in this environment, there is no place to use strength, just like a person who falls into the water does not even have a life-saving straw, and his heart is empty.
"Everybody's back, come together." At this time, Captain Matt gave another order to call everyone back.
In just a few minutes, more than 20 of his men were killed, which made him know that his tactic of sending a team to search had completely failed.
In this kind of dense forest, it is the world of elves, they have lived in the forest for a long time, they are extremely familiar with plants, and they are one with nature, and they can hide in any place, so that people can't find it.
Fighting elves in such a place is basically fighting sharks in the water.
They couldn't help but rejoice that they were able to eliminate a tribe of elves so easily, and if these elves started this kind of guerrilla war with them, they probably wouldn't be able to catch even a single elf.
Everyone began to gather back, but, just then, suddenly, there were two howls from among their large army.
Their two third-order magicians were directly killed in an instant, and they didn't even have time to react.
After killing the two mages, these two figures disappeared in a flash, and everyone saw only one shadow, and then they couldn't see anything.
"Assassins? What assassin is so powerful? Kill two magicians in an instant, and then leave in a stealth state so easily? ”
Matt watched this scene with wide eyes full of disbelief. The assassin's stealth ability, he also knows, after killing people, he must leave the battlefield and find a suitable place before he can stealth again.
However, after these two assassins killed someone just now, they immediately entered the stealth and at such a fast speed, what kind of assassins are they?
Moreover, the two assassins just now seemed to use weapons not daggers, but two thick-backed broadswords, such a big broadsword slashed down, and the speed was so fast, those two third-order magicians all had protective magic items, even if it was a third-order fighter's full force, they would not be killed immediately.
However, after the two assassins struck a blow, they were fended off by the magic item of the talisman for a while, and then they slashed continuously, chopping the magic talisman into pieces, and then killing the two mages.
The time in this was less than three seconds, and it was too late for them to want to rescue. The speed of the attack is too fast, and the speed of the escape is too fast.
"They're elves? Is there such a strong man among the elves? However, looking at the figures of the two of them, they don't look like elves, one of them is relatively thin, shorter than the average elf, and the other is extremely tall and burly, and ordinary orcs do not have such a head. Both of them were hidden in black cloaks, and their faces were not visible. ”
While Matt was surprised, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Provocation, this is a naked provocation. It is a great humiliation to kill people in front of him and he is powerless. Since becoming a fourth-order fighter, he hadn't met anyone who dared to humiliate him like this for many years.
Matt's fist clenched with a gabba sound, and his eyes were about to erupt with fire, but there was nowhere to vent his anger.
"Captain, what should I do?" The other mercenaries were all some six-godless and third-order magicians at this time, and they all dared to kill them so blatantly, completely playing with them in applause.
Matt's eyes flickered, and after a long time, he snorted coldly and said, "Let's leave quickly, all hold up our shields, pay attention to vigilance, and defend collectively when we rest, I don't believe they can kill us all." ”
Matt said this, but in his heart he was completely thinking about another calculation, and a treacherous light flashed in his eyes when he lowered his head.
