Chapter 51: Shadow Demon Transit V.
By the time Ye Qi's team, which had expanded to more than two hundred people, rushed to the woods where the Order Crystal was located in the north of Qingshui Town, it was already more than seven o'clock in the evening.
And it stands to reason that even if there are many children in the team, the speed of everyone's march will inevitably slow down. However, it should also take less than twenty minutes to reach the woods.
But why did it take more than 40 minutes during the period?
That's not because Ye Qi deliberately went to Qingshui Town to get five flatbed carriages in order to exchange a large number of fluorescent torches from the distribution page of the Order Crystal in the future, and had to prepare a mobile platform that was easy to access.
And since the livestock that originally pulled the cart were all pulled into the shadow plane by the shadow servants and devoured, the candidates for the cart at this time were of course the men in the prime of the team who were in charge.
So, with these five flat carriages that were in the team at this time, pulled by three or four prime-aged people with ropes, and moved forward quickly without any effort, not to mention those fluorescent torches that were exchanged by Ye Qi from the order crystal ration page one after another, on the way to Bal City, for others, there was a storage platform that was convenient to access at any time.
Even under the leadership of their parents or elders, more than a dozen young children who followed the team were also carried onto two of the flatbed carriages, speeding up the march of the entire team in disguise.
At the same time, on the way here, Ye Qi, who had already calculated the number of fluorescent torches that his group needed to consume on the way to Bal City, was looking at the total number of 13 soul crystals stored in his own soul crystal pool in the golden system interface in front of him.
When he realized that he could only exchange 650 fluorescent torches, and the fuel that the townspeople of Qingshui Town who joined his team carried with them were almost exhausted.
Ye Qi, who knew that even if there were no accidents on the road, it would take about two hours to arrive in Bal City, Ye Qi frowned at this time.
Every ten minutes, a team of more than 200 people will consume 50 fluorescent torches, and only 600 fluorescent torches will be needed to reach Bal City in two hours. However, Ye Qi, who obviously didn't think that the next journey would be smooth sailing, would naturally not be stupid enough not to prepare more fluorescent torches for lighting for possible accidents.
After all, when the time comes, once the fluorescent torches are exhausted, he and the others will still not be able to reach Baal City. Then what awaits them will only be despair in the darkness, waiting for death!
So, Ye Qi, who had to be cautious about this matter, beckoned to Chen Dayuan and Wang Anyi, who were on guard in the distance.
When the two of them came to him, he explained his above concerns to the two in a low voice.
Knowing that in such a situation, only by uniting together could it be possible for Wang Anyi and Chen Dayuan, who returned to Bal City, which was guarded by the fire of order, alive, naturally took out their soul crystal pool, whether it was a complete soul crystal or a scattered soul crystal fragment, and handed them all to Ye Qi.
Half a ring, and when Ye Qi was on the rationing page of the Order Crystal, he exchanged for a full 900 fluorescent torches. Under the shocked gaze of the surrounding aborigines, the golden light and shadow effects continued to flicker, and the bundles of fluorescent torches were all taken out of their savings space and placed on the other three flatbed carriages.
Even so, Ye Qi, who still felt a little uneasy, exchanged the last 3 soul crystals on the ration page for ten alchemy lanterns that could last for forty-two hours in the past, even in the polar night enchantment brought by the Shadow Demon Passage, it could continue to light up for more than ten hours, and the alchemy portable lamp was supplied with energy by pieces and gold equivalent magic crystals.
I hope that these things that in the past could only be had by those big nobles in the Terran countries, or nobles with a long heritage. In the dark, a alchemy lighting tool that can illuminate a room of more than fifty square meters, Ye Qi, who can be used in times of crisis, took out six of them from his savings space and handed them over to Wang Anyi and Chen Dayuan beside him.
Motioned to the two of them to deposit it in their own savings space in case they were needed.
Turning around and looking at the amount of fluorescent torches that he had taken out from his savings space before, he really put them on the three flat carriages in front of them, and the nerves that were tense all the time as the fuel he carried continued to decrease, as if the next moment, he was about to be under the prying eyes of those shadow servants in the darkness all the time, and the people who were crushed were at this time, with a great sigh of relief.
Ye Qi, who understood that these 900 fluorescent torches were like a strong injection, making everyone present have the hope that he could survive under the disaster of the Shadow Demon Transit was about to give the last encouragement to the people of this team before leaving for Baal City, but a slight movement suddenly came from a distance, which made his nerves, which were also a little relaxed, tense up again.
Ye Qi, who took out four pieces of broken flint from his waist pocket, threw himself into a dark forest in the distance under the gaze of Wang Anyi and Chen Dayuan, who realized something at this time.
At this time, Ye Qi obviously didn't care about whether the four pieces of broken flint that were thrown out would cause any fire.
With a sword in one hand and an axe in the other, his muscles tense and waiting for the moment when the four pieces of broken flint flying in the air hit the ground.
As the moment the four touched the ground, it was the light that flew out in all directions.
A black-armored warrior dressed in pitch-black armor, holding a giant decapitating sword, and a black metal helmet with two scarlet flowers dancing in his eyes, took strange steps towards everyone, and his movements changed abnormally during walking.
In the crowd, looking at the black-armored warrior with slender limbs and twisted movements in the distance. Obviously, in the tavern of the town, in the past, in the mouth of the wandering poets, heard about the rumors about this dark creature, the upper and lower teeth trembled, and Vic Holt, who also worked part-time as a militia in Qingshui Town, opened his mouth and exclaimed: "Shadow ...... Shadow Fiend!! ”
At the same time that Vic Holt, a middle-aged man who was dragging his family at this time, exclaimed like this, Ye Qi, who was standing at the front of the crowd, saw this beheading swordsman who was no different from the shadow demon depicted in the book, and had strange movements, and swung the axe of fire slashing in his left hand.
The scorching crescent moon sword qi, at the same time as it shot out, was Ye Qi, who shouted to Wang Anyi and Chen Dayuan beside him: "I need lighting", that is, his right foot stepped heavily on the ground, and the figure followed the "Yan Cutting" sword qi released by the Flame Slash Axe, and shot towards the shadow demon in the distance.
However, in the face of this "Yan Cut" that almost flashed in the eyes of ordinary people, this decapitating swordsman who did not stop and dodge because of this, but only turned sideways slightly and quickly and quickly, just ignoring the orange-red crescent sword qi that was clinging to the surface of its breastplate.
In the next moment, in the face of the young warrior in front of him, who was almost immediately following the "Yan Cut" skill, the powerful and heavy jump slash, it raised its hand with one hand, and the blade of the sword had a heavy decapitation sword more than two meters long.
In the next moment, the heavy decapitation sword in the shadow demon's hand, the same dark blade, collided with the black yao sword with cold light on the blade in Ye Qi's hand, in a flash of sparks.
"Wow!!"
With the crunch of metal blades intersecting, it was heard far through the woods.
Ye Qi, who didn't choose to keep his hand at such a critical moment in advance, came up and directly launched the skill "Heavy Attack", so that his first sword was to exert his strength, and the Red Bronze Rank warrior struck with all his strength.
And this shadow demon, who obviously misestimated Ye Qi's absolute strength, was slashed by the other blade of the heavy decapitation sword in his hand, and slashed heavily on the left shoulder armor protected by heavy armor, sparking a spark At the same time, his steps were also inevitably seven or eight steps back.
However, before the shadow demon in front of him, who should have the primary strength of red copper, stood firm, a scorching flame in the dim environment, which was extremely dazzling, slashed at the belly of this shadow demon in the next instant.
Scorching so hot that it could melt steel, it tore through the Shadow Fiend's abdomen, the steel protected by heavy armor.
With a large amount of black aura emanating from the rift, it was the Shadow Demon who was directly hit by this flame and let out a roar of pain.
