Chapter 77: Before Dawn
On top of the glowing tower, as always, there were archers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Unlike in the past, tonight these archers are no longer shooting under the towers, their arrows are all shot into the air. But this is also difficult to stop the overwhelming flying demonic beasts from flying into the city, and they continue to bring land-based demonic beasts that are limited to the ground into the city.
And the outer herds also seemed to be covering their companions, attacking in unison, regardless of life and death, rushing towards the city wall. It was destined to be a night filled with death and carnage......
Yu Yi and Heti were running down the main street of the Black Flint Block, and when they encountered those demonic beasts falling from the sky, they would kill them as soon as possible. But gradually, more and more demonic beasts landed in the city on the streets, and the situation here gradually became tricky.
A black python crept around behind the orc, and just as it was about to wrap its sharp snake scales around its prey, a feathered arrow pinned it firmly to the ground.
"Master!" Sensing the movement behind him, the orc turned his head in surprise and glanced at the black spotted python writhing on the ground, and then shouted happily at the archer shooter.
Xi'erang, who led a small group of soldiers, directly skimmed it and walked towards Yu Yi: "Lance, are you all right?" ”
"What can I do?" Yu Yi pouted and said, "What's the situation now?" He asked as he cut off the head of the black python.
"The bachelor in the city predicted very accurately, the second wave of beast tide should be these flying monsters." Hilon replied.
"How smart have these beasts become? It's going to work with each other. The successive battles just now made Yu Yi seem a little hurried when he spoke.
The arrow feather eagle gave himself a look, and the half-orc Hu reacted from this and hurriedly took out the medicine box to bandage the wound of the deed owner. "Not necessarily," he said, gesturing at a sickle-tailed lynx in the air that was biting at a fleshy bat, and as the sickle-tailed lynx sent the bat meat into the air, they all fell from the sky and fell heavily to the ground.
"The beast tide is just an instinct of the demonic beast, and the cooperation based on instinct is not smart. Apparently, the sickle-tailed lynx also retains its instinct to prey on human-faced bats. He continued.
After the sickle-tailed lynx landed, it ate a few bites of bat meat and ran down the alley, but was stopped by a cold arrow. Then several soldiers swarmed up and hacked the lynx to death in two blows.
"These monsters don't seem to have a high desire to fight, they all seem to be running in the same direction." After killing the demonic beasts for so long, Yu Yi naturally discovered their abnormalities as well.
"The purpose of the beast tide is to destroy the heart of the city, and unless these siege monsters are blocked, they will only follow their instincts and run in the direction of the heart of the city."
Yu Yi also felt that after Xi'ang was present, all questions would be answered. "What about the others?" He also asked, since tonight was patrolling to guard against the second wave of beast tides, each hundred-man team was pouring out of the nest when patrolling.
"I arranged for them to wait at various street intersections, two squads at each street intersection, except here."
"We're here, and a team is enough." Yu Yi nodded gratefully at Heti, who had finished bandaging his wounds, "There have been no casualties so far, right?" ”
Sir Ang glanced at the deed owner: "What?" If there are casualties, do you want to retreat and hold this neighborhood alone? ”
Yu Yi remembered yesterday's reflection, sighed and said, "Guarding has a price. ”
Only then did the Arrow Eagle turn his face sideways, and a shallow smile appeared at an angle that the deed owner could not see. "Your first flame is a flame, and the more it burns, the more it can grow. Don't let a spark give up its burning instinct just to keep it. ”
The vivid metaphor made Yu Yi couldn't help but go around to the other party, looked at him jokingly, and said, "Si'erang, how long did you think about this sentence before you came up with it?" ”
"It didn't take long." The archer twisted his head to the other side.
"So talented? Would you like to consider becoming a troubadour? ”
"Lance, be serious when you fight."
It wasn't until the second half of the night that the flying monsters in the sky gradually decreased. During this period, Yu Yi also took the time to take Heti, the "wet nurse", to the street where the squads stood guard to inspect it, and he found that these recruits could do more than he imagined.
He saw with his own eyes that a second-order sword and shield soldier had killed two roaring lions without serious injuries.
At this time, he realized that he really had too much to worry about.
"I didn't expect this second wave of beasts to be like this." On the way back from the end of the inspection, after confirming that there were still no serious casualties after several hours of fierce fighting, Yu Yi said with feelings.
The deed master's words made Hil'ang, who was walking beside him, frown, because he knew very well in his heart that this second wave of beast tide was indeed not as dangerous as the mentor had said in the past. "Don't take it lightly yet."
When the three of them were about to return to the street they were guarding, the glass window of a wooden house on the side of the road suddenly shattered.
"It's a Warcraft?" Yu Yi turned to Hil'ang on the side, "Didn't you say that they would only run towards the inner city?" ”
Sylon looked at the shattered window, squinted, and replied, "Just take a look?" So saying, he strode over to the hut and knocked on the door.
But after the windows shattered, the room seemed to be quiet, and there was no more movement.
"If it's a monster that breaks in, someone can open the door for you?" Yu Yi, who was following him, glared at Xi'er, raised his shield and prepared to break in.
But the archer, as if determined, knocked on the door and raised his hand to signal the deed's owner, etc.
And Yu Yi no longer has that patience, he knows very well that this neighborhood is inhabited by some "life players", and it is for this reason that he chose to be responsible for the safety of this area. Thinking that the people inside might have been attacked by the demonic beasts, he became anxious.
"Click"
Just as he was about to bang on the door, the door suddenly opened. A man showed his face and asked, "Is there anything wrong with you?" ”
Yu Yi was about to step forward to ask, but heard that Xi'an had already spoken first: "It's okay." ”
Then the door clicked shut.
"Sylon, you?" As soon as he spoke, he heard Sylon leaning into his ear and saying:
"Hit what door? Aren't you good at picking locks? Now it's open, it's the Thieves' Guild people. ”
The words made him stunned twice, but he unambiguously touched the spiritual gold in his hand. The lock is very simple, and it takes less than three seconds for the door to open.
Pushing open the door, the three of them saw two people lying in the room, and the man who had just opened the door was quickly filling his big bag with food. Seeing the three people who suddenly opened the door, the three men were so shocked that they forgot their movements and watched them walk in step by step.
missed the best opportunity to escape, and all that awaited him was the hard shield in Yu Yi's hand.
"Sylon, how do you know this guy is from the Thieves' Guild?" After easily subduing the man, Yu Yi asked while tying his hands.
Arrow Eagle walked up to the man, reached out and grabbed the iron necklace around the other party's neck, and then pulled it down hard. "Last time, the bald head also wore such a piece on his neck." As he spoke, he spread out the necklace in front of the owner, and the ornament on the necklace was a rat-shaped iron ring.
"My lord, these two people are fine, they just fainted." Heti said after examining the two fainting people on the ground.
"That's good, we don't have time to waste here, let's go."
"Definitely. No time to waste. Sylon chimed in, but pulled an arrow from the quiver behind his back and put the tip of the arrow against the man's throat. Say, where are the others? I don't believe that the thieves' guild only sends one person out of a burglary. ”
"Don't hurt me, the three of us are just taking things......" the thief immediately beckoned to himself.
"Lead the way."
The tip of the arrow pierced the flesh of some men, and immediately made him exclaim, "It's right next door!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sir Ang knocked the man unconscious with a punch.
"Syl, in such a critical situation as the beast tide, there are still people who can take care of doing such a thing? Survival is the most important thing, right? While dragging the thief out of the house, Yu Yi asked.
After leaving the fainting thief directly on the road, the three of them walked briskly to the next room. This time, they naturally didn't knock on the door, and Yu Yi stepped forward directly to unlock the lock. Hilon answered the previous question next to him, saying, "If you get enough good things, you can survive." ”
"Can't even the beast tide stop this behavior?" Pushing open the door, the three of them walked into the house as if they were walking, chatting and subduing the thieves in the house as before.
After continuing to ask about the whereabouts of the next thief, the three of them walked on to the next house after knocking the second person unconscious and still on the side of the road. On the way, Siron continued the conversation he had just said, "You know, sin never stops, Lance. ”
The third time, the last thief was subdued. Sylon continued to say what he wanted to say to the Covenant Master after all that he had just done: "The point is, my Covenant Master, you now have the power to stop them. As long as you have enough strength ......"
But halfway through these words, he choked. Because after walking out of the house, I turned around to look for the two people before, but they were gone, to be precise, the bodies of the two people were gone, but their heads were still lying there intact.
"Syl, what is that......" Following the bloodstains, Yu Yi kept his eyes on the lamppost on the side of the road. A huge creature was silently feasting on what he had picked up on the side of the road, blood staining the lights red.
Looking at the big guy, Si'on was also stunned for a few seconds before he drew an arrow and replied, "Human-faced Bat King." ”
