Chapter 68: The First Spine

did not rush into the first spine, and after the Principality of Belmar and his party guarded the gate for a period of time, the Adventurer Alliance and the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group and others arrived one after another.

Counting the number of people, the three teams all have different losses, among which the Adventurer Alliance is the most serious, followed by the Duchy of Belmar.

The final count was completed, with 51 dead, 67 seriously injured and 164 slightly injured.

The number of people who came when they came was 487, and after removing the medical team and others who were still in the body of the Heavenly Veil Behemoth, and removing the dead, there were only 394 people left.

It is impossible for the seriously wounded to move on, they must stay here to recuperate, and there is also a need for some people to take care of them.

In the end, there were only about three hundred people left who decided to go deep into the first spine.

The atmosphere was a little heavy, and this had not really started the war with Lotus, but it had become this situation, and everyone was a little unrefreshed.

"Let go of me!"

A sudden roar attracted everyone's attention.

Standing up from the ground with a spear support, Hyde gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not a seriously wounded man, I'm going to go in with you, I have to kill Lotus!" ”

......Everyone was silent, not knowing what to say, and they could tell that Hyde's injuries were serious, and that going on was no different from dying.

"Hyde, sit down for me! This is the order of my regimental commander! Barn whispered to Hyde.

"I don't!" Hyde was stubborn.

Walking in front of Hyde, Yang Bai struck him unconscious.

Turning to look around, he saw the eyes of those who were scared, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart.

"What are you guys afraid of?!" Yang Bai yelled at those people.

No one was able to answer him.

"Look at those people, what did they die for?" Pointing to the corpse covered with a white cloth on the ground, Yang Bai let out an angry roar.

"Look at the people who are so wounded, why did they end up like that?"

"Even a seriously injured person is willing to fight to the death, what are you guys who don't lack arms or legs afraid of?!"

"Because of their sacrifices, we are able to stand here and have the opportunity to move forward. And in this situation, you are actually cowardly! If Lotus is allowed to continue to erode the Celestial Veil Behemoth, once the Celestial Veil Behemoth falls, we will be greeted by endless disasters. ”

"Are you worthy of those who died? Is it worthy of these seriously wounded? Worthy of your country? Is it worthy of this battlefield?! ”

……

"I ...... What are you afraid of? ”

Slapping himself violently, a member of the Adventurer's Alliance gritted his teeth and said, "From the moment I set foot here, I have long been shut out of life and death!" ”

"I'm going to fight and I won't fail anyone!"

"Fight to the deathβ€”"

"Exterminate the Apostle Lotus!"

Seeing that those cowardly people finally mentioned their fighting intent again, Yang Bai breathed a sigh of relief, if he continued to move forward according to the atmosphere just now, he was afraid that there would be more casualties.

"Well done." Patting Yang Bai on the shoulder, Karakas said softly.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang Bai." Vail. Crewe and Green. Linde said at the same time.

Although Barn didn't speak, his attitude was the same as everyone else's, and Yang Bai's speech just now was very beautiful.

Regrouping momentum, now is not the time to waste time, Yang Bai walked at the front of the team, and the group entered the first spine in a mighty way.

The first spine is actually a circular forward road, there are no forks in the road, forward is forward, and turning back is turning back.

Entering here means that the group has entered the real sphere of influence of Lotus.

The first task, naturally, is to install jamming transmitters.

"This feeling is the spiritual invasion of Lotus!"

His expression changed, and the first person who felt that something was wrong was Forrest Gump, who had a lesson.

"Don't panic, everyone, we are still far away from Lotus now, and Rotus's mental interference is not so strong that it cannot complete the erosion immediately." Karakas shouted at everyone.

"Jamming the effect of the transmitter, I can pack a ticket, but I can't install it in this place." Kelly said loudly.

"The more we move forward, the stronger the Lotus Mental Interference will become, how much time do we have left in this situation?" Barn asked with a calm face.

Closing his eyes, Forrest Gump began to feel carefully, and after a while, he opened his eyes and said firmly: "Unlike before, because he knew about our arrival, Lotus strengthened its mental interference. ”

"However, in the current range, we can still hold out for at least one day, but as we go deeper, this time will also quickly decrease, conservative estimates...... It may only be a few hours. ”

"Worst-case scenario?" G.S.D. asked.

"Two hours!" Forrest Gump finalized his idea: "If the installation of the jamming transmitter cannot be completed within two hours, then we will all be mentally manipulated by Lotus and become his puppets!" ”

"In that case, we can't waste time." Karakas nodded.

"But it doesn't look like Lotus is going to let us install the jamming transmitter." Frowning slightly, Yang Bai saw rows of shadows in front of him.

They come in a variety of sizes, colors, and the only thing they have in common is that they all squirm on the ground.

"It's disgusting...... Were all these octopuses created by Lotus? The rest of the people gasped as well.

Densely packed with octopus monsters, almost blocking the road ahead.

And you can also see that there are many unhatched eggs on the walls and on the ground, which are all 'warriors' created by Lotus using the energy of the apostles, and they are also about to hatch.

"Be careful!"

There was a sudden exclamation from the crowd, and before anyone else could react, a tremor was heard on the ground, followed by a large red tentacle full of spikes suddenly piercing out of the ground.

While this tentacle pierced one person, the spikes on it also provoked several others.

"Big guys, spread out, don't stand too densely!" Yang Bai hurriedly shouted, even he didn't expect that Lotus could attack here.

In the noise of the crowd, the big guys immediately dispersed, and there were still spikes on the ground, and these spiked tentacles were not the tentacles of Lotus itself, but the appearance of it using spiritual energy to forcibly generate eggs buried in the ground.

This kind of attack is difficult to dodge, and even though people have dispersed, people are still being stabbed.

The worst of all are those who are not yet dead, who are hung on spikes and wail constantly, but they cannot die immediately.

At the same time, the octopus army in front has also arrived, and is about to launch the first round of attacks on the attacking team, and the whole battle immediately becomes extremely tense.
