Volume 8: War and Peace Chapter 15: The Unveiling of Chaos (Sudden Bad News)
The cold blade slashed through the girl's throat, as easily as a hot dinner knife sliced through butter, the throat was sliced, blood was spurting, and the dwarf assassin's eyes reflected Yakumoshi's frightened expression, all of which made him feel very satisfied.
It wasn't until a piercing pain brought him to his senses that the assassin lurking in the shadows realized that reality and illusion were the opposite, that it was his own throat that had been sliced open and his own blood spurted out!
"Boom...... ...... "The throat was cut so that the poison in his right hand could not speak, and the bloody throat could only let out a hoarse moan, and he couldn't figure out why it was himself who died and not the cunning fox!"
The poison in his right hand could clearly feel his life passing rapidly with the gushing of blood, and the scene in front of him began to blur, leaving only a blood-red color covering the entire sky and earth.
"Am I going to die?" A deep sense of powerlessness enveloped his whole body, he was not afraid of death, since he became the executor of the Snake of Body, death had become a common occurrence for him, the only thing he couldn't accept was that he didn't even know what means that woman used to kill him!
"Idiot! Wake up! A sharp pain came from his thigh, and there was a voice he knew very well, it was his brother's voice!
In the next second, the blood-red sky and the earth suddenly cracked, and the noisy and chaotic sound of fighting brought him back to the battlefield full of gunpowder smoke again, and the poison in his right hand looked down, and a one-handed axe was embedded in his thigh, no wonder he felt pain.
However, before he could understand what was happening to him, Yakumo Blue's two short swords had already stabbed towards the poison in his right hand, at this moment, the instinct of being an assassin made him react immediately, subconsciously retreating sideways, and at the same time pulling a player next to him, this poor guy was obviously shocked by such a high-end battle scene in front of him, and was stupidly used by the poison in his right hand to block the knife.
"Finally sober?" Taking advantage of Yakumo's blue being slightly blocked, the left-handed blade used a short-range charge to directly straddle the transporter, blocking the poison in his right hand, and easily took back the one-handed axe inserted in his brother's thigh.
"What happened? I remember being killed by that woman! The poison in his right hand asked while putting a first-aid bandage on himself so that he would not die from excessive blood loss, while hiding behind the sharp blade in his left hand.
Using a one-handed axe to open Yakumo Blue's short sword, the blade in his left hand picked up a small round shield on the ground that he didn't know who had fallen, and blocked the bunny girl's backhand slash: "You have to ask yourself, anyway, when I only saw your dagger touch her, the fox instantly turned into a pile of rune paper and exploded, and then you stood still like a fool!" To be honest, I haven't seen you ever be more stupid since I was a child, so I should have taken a picture of your stupidity! ”
The words of the blade in the left hand made the poison in the right hand wish there was a hole in the ground to get into, obviously, he relaxed his vigilance at the moment when he was about to succeed, and was hypnotized by the cunning fox of Yakumo Zi with illusions, and she herself had already prepared a way out, the rune paper that exploded was obviously a skill used for camouflage, and now it was almost impossible to find her again in the vast sea of people.
The poison in his right hand slapped him in the face: "You're right, I'm so stupid!" ”
Also facing the Apostle of the Body-Eater Serpent, the Soul Eater Blade Alan was able to easily kill Karn Blackhorn and then float away, while he was toyed with by Yakumo Purple like an unworldly young man, counting the previous raid in Jialan City, he had already broken his wings in the hands of this woman twice in a row, which made the right-handed poison who had always wanted to prove that he was no worse than Alan Shadow Song felt very discouraged.
"I know you're embarrassed right now, but can you help first! This rabbit is crazy! ”
Although the left-handed blade is a warrior class, he is better at short assaults, and once he gets into close combat, it is obvious that he can't compare to Yakumo Blue, after all, she is an elite who has undergone rigorous combat training.
When the right-handed poison joined the battle, Yakumo Lan couldn't be as comfortable as before, facing two executor candidates, even Yakumo Lan, who was a moon dancer, couldn't maintain his advantage, not to mention that this was on the battlefield, who knew what unexpected things would happen.
A simple shield strike, the left hand blade seized the opportunity of Yakumo Blue to attack, deliberately exposed half of his body, and he couldn't die if he was cut by a short sword, but his shield blow was able to make Yakumo Blue stunned for a moment, and this was enough for his brother to hack the crazy rabbit to death several times.
But he obviously underestimated Yakumo Lan's wisdom, the round shield hit not her body, but the feet that had already been in the air, with the power of the left hand blade shield strike, Yakumo Lan kicked his legs, and soared into the air like a cannon, and the rabbit stepped on the heads of several bear-man warriors and flew away from the transport vehicle, leaving the two gnomes looking at each other.
The poison in his right hand glanced at his little short legs, and for the first time felt that his body shape had become a shortcoming! Now, it's the two of them who have a headache, and the big bears and leopards around them are not hospitable hosts!
"Kill it!" The sharp blade in his left hand took out a short knife and threw it at the poison in his right hand, and in the face of these big men with thick skin and thick flesh, the dagger of poison in his right hand may not be able to penetrate the thick skin on their bodies, at this time, a knife on a tabula rasa is better than the dagger in his hand.
Yakumo Blue, who escaped alive, avoided a few stray arrows, found a gap and jumped to the ground, and after shaking his body quickly a few times, he activated the talent skill of mimicry and ran towards another transport vehicle through the chaotic battlefield, the reason why he kept five transport vehicles was to deal with this situation, and the same mechanism was arranged on each transport vehicle.
However, when Yakumo Blue and Yakumo Purple converged, she found that there was not much joy on her master's face.
"Lord Zi, although the current battle situation is unfavorable, this is not what we expected!" Thinking that Yakumo Purple was worried about the battle situation in front of him, Yakumo Lan calmed down and said.
Yakumo Zi shook his head, not taking the previous confrontation with the poison in his right hand to heart, if he had changed someone else, he would have already shown his smugness on his face.
"Say what you know again!" Yakumo said to a Gensokyo player beside him, and Yakumo Lan finally remembered that this was one of the scouts they had left in Jialan City.
"President, Vice President, in the middle of the night yesterday, an elite army of the undead attacked Jialan City, and after nearly seven hours of fighting, Jialan City still did not repel those undead and was occupied!"
"What do you say? Jialan City is lost!? Yayun Lan was shocked by this news, she hadn't even thought about this kind of thing, she hadn't even dreamed about it, that was Jialan City, the main city of the demon clan!
"Go on, it's been almost twelve hours since the loss of Jialan City, and you must have a more detailed grasp of the situation." Yakumo said, although she was trying to show a calm state of mind, Yakumo Lan, who had grown up together since childhood, still heard a tremor from Yakumo Zi's tone.
"The commander of the undead is the Duke of the Sa Anlotte Empire, the Bone Lord Baghila Gate, and the main force of the attack is the Bone Knights of the Sa Anlotte Empire, we don't dare to get too close to those undead, so we can't get more information!"
"What about the loss of Jialan City? It should take at least four days for the transportation of supplies to end, and if Jialan City is lost, will all those supplies be swallowed by the undead? "Yakumo Lan didn't care which undead hero commanded the attack, what she cared about was the supplies that were hoarded in Jialan City!
Yakumo Zi closed her eyes, as if she couldn't bear to look at the sad expression on the scout's face again, if possible, she even wanted to plug her ears, no need for the scout to say that she could guess how serious the loss of Jialan City would be, after all, it was the main city of a race, not to mention that this time the migration was so hurried, in order to take away as many supplies as possible, many NPCs stayed in Jialan City to be responsible for transportation, and these would obviously become the targets of the undead.
"The patriarch of the kitten people died in battle, the great elder of the fox people died in battle, the patriarch of the rabbit people and the great elder were seriously injured, and the losses of other NPCs are even greater!" The scout said with trepidation, "Even those of us who stayed in Jialan City, there are less than five of us who can escape alive!" ”
Yakumo Lan couldn't close her mouth in surprise, you know, in order to grasp the situation in Jialan City, the number of scouts left there in Gensokyo was nearly a hundred, and less than five of these people escaped alive, you can imagine how the deaths and injuries of those combatless civilians will be.
"Two Legends Killed in Battle, Two Legends Seriously Wounded! What a good means! This broke the backbone of the demon clan! Yakumo Zi said bitterly, she didn't even bother to ask about those supplies, if it weren't for the fact that those materials hadn't been transported away, how could a legendary-level hero who was a patriarch and a great elder fight to the death and finally die in battle!
"President, in addition to these, our six secret warehouses have also been searched, and the materials stored in them have been looted!"
Yakumo Zi looked at the scout player sharply, "Who did that?" There's no way those undead soldiers can find our secret warehouse! ”
The undead soldiers who only obey orders obviously don't have the ability to find the secret warehouse that Gensokyo has painstakingly hidden, and those heroic undead don't bother to do this kind of thing, and the only ones who can do this can do it, and only the players who have this mind, and it is obvious that they are still the players who know them very well.
"It's Keldila Weaver!"
"The Snake !! Eater" Yakumo Zi gritted her teeth and said, the loss of the six secret warehouses was even more serious for her than the death of two legendary-level heroes of the demon clan.
Waving his hand to make this scout retreat, Yakumo Zi sat down dejectedly: "Hehe, I didn't expect that I had calculated everything, but I still didn't escape from that guy's palm!" ”
"Purple-sama, our situation is even worse now!" Yakumo Lan also realized what the consequences of all this would bring.
When everyone's eyes were on this wilderness, trying to use this bait to lure out the big fish that bit the hook, someone had already set their sights on Jialan City, and seizing the opportunity was a lore!
The demon clan, which was originally insufficient in strength and had a small population, after this heavy loss, lost two of the legendary-level combat power in an instant, and two were also seriously injured, in the current situation that there is not much legendary-level existence in the entire continent, this level of loss means that the entire demon clan has lost enough deterrent power in high-end combat power.
The loss of materials and the reduction of the population not only mean that the recovery of the race is more difficult, but also means that the value of the entire demon race is greatly reduced. And this reduction in value will also affect the importance that human beings attach to the demon race.
This is just like the relationship between listed companies and investors, the demon clan is ready to change the direction of investment, and does not want to continue to fill his funds into the bottomless pit of the chaotic camp, and the human race, the listed company, also wants to pull the demon clan investor into its own chariot, and use the investor's funds to further expand the scale of its own company, in order to achieve this purpose, the human being as a company does not mind paying a part of the price in exchange for the demon clan's refuge.
But when the funds in the hands of the demon clan investor are greatly reduced, as a company, the human race has to consider whether it is worth it, and may still accept the demon clan as an investor, but whether he is willing to pay the previous price obviously needs to be renegotiated.
The original demon clan, although the strength is not as good as the dungeon, but it is not a weak chicken like the harpy, if the four major races can be called first-class combat effectiveness, then the demon clan can also follow the dungeon, which can be regarded as a second-rate race.
And now, the high-end combat power has suffered heavy damage, coupled with the demon clan after the population has decreased, not to mention the second-rate, it is debatable whether it can maintain a better position in the third-rate!
"It's clear that the man did it! Only he can clearly realize how to prevent the demon clan from becoming the help of the orderly camp! Although Yu Bin's danger had been raised many times, Yakumo Zi still felt that he had underestimated this man, as if he was born with the idea of how to manipulate the direction of the entire situation!
"Lord Zi, we must rush to Ten Thousand Souls City as soon as possible! The loss of Jialan City means that the sea transportation is cut off, and if the air transportation channel is cut off again, everything we have done will be completely wasted! ”
"Well, you're right!" Yakumo Zi stood up and said, "Gather the people who are still alive immediately, we must rush back immediately, and as for here, leave it to those demons!" ”
