Chapter 15: The Syndicate

This dwarven musket is still a primitive flintlock musket, estimated to be less powerful than a regular bow and crossbow, and it is also cumbersome to reload, so it can only be used for emergencies.

Just as Song Zheng took out the crossbow, Bridget, who had blessed herself with the blessing of holy light, had already rushed towards the burly and hideous snowman.

The golden sword and the golden armor looked sacred and powerful, but even if it had been blessed with the power of holy light beforehand, the long sword was still slapped and almost slapped out of the hands after touching the snowman's huge claws.

"This snowman's defense is really high...... Song Zheng was not far from Bridget, and he could clearly see that the long sword with the effect of holy light only left a faint scar on the snowman's claws, and there was not even blood flowing out.

This also gave him a new understanding of the strength of the monsters in this world, in the Warcraft game, the snowmen near the town of Nanhai are not difficult to deal with, but in this real world, you can feel the powerful threat brought by these snowmen.

"I don't know how powerful the high-level monsters in other regions will be." Song Zheng secretly sighed, and at the same time, he was also secretly vigilant that he must not use the information in the game to deduce the situation in the real world, otherwise he might be pitted to the ground.

Perhaps enraged by Bridget's attack, the snowman let out a low, metallic growl, and then rushed forward with a huge claw, smashing two bowl-sized trees with ease as he charged.

Song Zheng couldn't help but worry about Bridget, especially when her long sword collided with the snowman's claws again, and was immediately swung away.

However, her swordsmanship looked very good, and the golden sword swirled lightly in her hand, and then stabbed the snowman in the lower abdomen.

The effect of this attack was not bad, the tall snowman was not flexible, and he was directly stabbed by a sword in a hurry, although the stab was not deep, but finally saw blood flowing out.

However, like the other beasts, the snowman let out a piercing roar immediately after being injured, and angrily waved its huge claws and pounced on Bridget with a terrifying momentum.

Brigitte also looked nervous, after all, the snowman was far more powerful than the mountain lion, and to make matters worse, the golden light on her armor was starting to fade.

"The duration of this Holy Light Blessing is really a bit short......" Song Zheng was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly shot an arrow in order to delay Bridg's time.

However, his shooting accuracy was so poor that even with a relatively simple crossbow, the arrow that was shot at the snowman's throat still floated upwards, and finally landed in the snowman's left eye.

"It's okay...... After all, he didn't completely miss the target, it seems that he was quite lucky today......" Song Zheng sighed secretly, and the shot in the eye should also cause a lot of damage to the snowman.

The snowman's left eye was indeed injured by an arrow that seemed like a stroke of genius, and even stopped attacking Bridget, and instead shouted angrily at Song Zheng.

What's even more frightening is that the same cry immediately sounded in the surrounding jungle, which seemed to respond to the snowman, but there was more than one!

"Looks like bad luck is still with me." Song Zheng's face turned pale in an instant...... This time they encountered not just a snowman, but a group.

Philip, who had been hiding in the crowd and cheering on Bridget, had already covered his mouth and ran away.

The rest of the knights also began to flee quickly, hunting lions was already the limit of their courage, and it was impossible to have the courage to face the murderous snowmen, especially if this was still a group of snowmen!

"Let's go." Song Zheng had already thrown away the bulky crossbow in his hand, and was about to run backwards after pulling Bridget, who was still hesitant.

"But...... The rules of the paladins are that you must never retreat in the face of your enemies......" Bridge said hesitantly.

"This is a fool's rule, haven't you become a paladin yet, if you don't run, you won't even have the chance to participate in the paladin assessment." Song Zheng almost wanted to scold his mother in his heart, isn't the paladin the best at invincible Hearthstone, how can there be any rule that will never retreat in the face of the enemy.

The surrounding trees kept hearing the sound of trees being knocked down, and even the ground began to tremble a little, and I don't know how many snowmen came over.

Bridget finally began to retreat under Song Zheng's tug, but the snowmen had already caught up.

In the past, when they went up the mountain, Song Zheng and the others would slowly use machetes to open the way in front, but now in the face of the snowman's pursuit, no one cared about this, and they all fled towards the place where the bushes were most dense.

However, although those snowmen were not fast due to their huge size, they were not afraid of those trees and could force their way through, so they were not slower than Song Zheng and their escape speed.

The dense branches and leaves whipped on his body, if he hadn't been wearing thick leather armor, and even wearing a newly bought chain mail on the outside, Song Zheng estimated that he would have been scratched by these branches.

I don't know how long I ran in the dense forest, and when Song Zheng was out of breath and couldn't run anymore, he finally stopped.

Bridget was also slightly panting, her physical strength was better than Song Zheng's, but it seemed that the consumption was also very large, after all, she was wearing heavy armor, and she had fought continuously before.

"I don't think I heard the snowman chasing after me, so let's take a break here." Song Zheng leaned against a big tree and gasped for breath, only feeling a burning pain in his chest, but all the previous luggage was left on the horse, and he didn't want to drink saliva at the moment.

At the same time, although the snowmen did not chase them, Philip and his knights were nowhere to be found, and they were probably lost when they fled.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't expect those snowmen to be in danger with me, and I'll pay you more when I get back." Bridget said apologetically.

"Go back? You can't go back! ”

A gloomy voice suddenly sounded.

"Who?" Bridget immediately clenched her sword tightly, revealing a look of wariness.

There was a rustling sound in the bushes beside him, and two black figures came out in an instant.

Both men were dressed in black leather armor, and held long knives with barbs at the tip, and a hint of green on the blade, as if they were smeared with some kind of poison.

One of them, tall and thin, was holding a piece of paper with what seemed to be drawn on it, and he looked at the paper while looking up and down at Song Zheng and Bridget.

"Tsk, it's really them, it's really effortless, this time we're making a lot of money." There was a hint of a smile on the man's face, but in Song Zheng's eyes, it was unusually hideous.

"Who are you?" Song Zheng had quietly held the dagger in his boot in his hand, and the two people in front of him gave him a very dangerous feeling.

"They're syndicates!" Before the two could speak, Bridget had already answered, and her voice and gaze instantly turned cold.
