Chapter 279: Evil Eye Lord
Alone, Lin Han, standing on the city wall, silently looked out of the town in the twilight.
It's been five hours since they arrived in Unicorn Town, and thankfully, during this time, the monsters seem to have forgotten this place and have never appeared outside the town, giving the tired cavalry and villagers a rare rest.
"Whew...... The longer it drags on, the more it will come. ”
Lin Han took out a piece of delicious bread and took a bite to cheer himself up, not to relax his perception in this dark night.
Smack!
"Huh?" At this moment, Lin Han suddenly heard a sound from behind him, although it was subtle, it still couldn't hide Lin Han's hearing.
Turning around slightly, Lin Han saw a female knight, who was about to lean down and peek at him.
Lin Han's eyes met the female knight, although they were immediately separated, the female knight already knew that she had been discovered, and couldn't help but stick out her tongue, trotted to the head of the city and looked at Lin Han wearing the mask of the king.
"We're meeting again."
The female knight took off her helmet with some awkwardness, revealing her delicate face and long shiny black hair.
"Annie?" Lin Han recognized this young knight, she was the guide that Lin Han had hired to hunt thieves on the Guling Plateau.
"Yo ho, Brother Lin Han, you really haven't forgotten me!" The girl laughed happily, revealing two small tiger teeth.
Then, Anne looked Lin Han up and down with a happy heart and said, "Anne originally thought that it was very difficult and good luck for herself to be a trainee knight, but she didn't expect that Brother Lin Han, you have become a nobleman, and you have also owned a territory and become a lord. ”
"Trainee Knight? You ......" Lin Han was slightly stunned, and looked at Annie with some surprise, at this time he regretted that he hadn't learned a little exploration technique, otherwise he wouldn't know much about intelligent natives like Annie.
"Yes, Brother Lin Han, after I was separated from you last time, I followed the advice of the head of the regiment and went to Sky City, but I was favored by His Royal Highness a great knight and became her attendant, and was quickly promoted to a trainee knight." Anne nodded, with a hint of perseverance in her eyes: "This time, I am the knight who came to Unicorn Town to assist in the defense in place of His Highness, this time, I must stick to the last moment, even if it costs with my life!" ”
"Another guy who has been fooled by chivalry."
Lin Han looked at Anne with a serious face, and knew that she was not lying, and the promise at this time was sincere.
"Tell me about Unicorn Town."
Lin Han thought for a while, asked Anne to sit on the battlements, and asked her.
The information she received from Anne was not much different from that provided by the mayor, the red dragon, the failure of the magic array, and the wavering of the army's heart.
"Annie, do you think we can hold the unicorn town?" After listening to Anne's answer, Lin Han suddenly asked.
"I ...... I will fight. Anne opened her mouth, turned her head to look into the dim distance, clenched her fists, and replied in a low voice: "Fight until the last moment!" ”
"Because, Your Highness said it."
"The reason why knights are worshipped by all is because when disaster strikes, the one who holds the sword of knight will raise it high in his hand and illuminate the hearts of all those who are desperate."
"This ...... It is the duty of our knights, and it is also our greatest criterion! ”
"Why does this sound so familiar?" Lin Han chuckled in his heart, and couldn't help flashing such a picture in his mind, in the burning giant city square, a woman who turned red all over her body, holding a giant sword, facing the thousands of hell demons surging from the ground, shouted loudly, in a vain attempt to defeat ten thousand enemies, and delay time for everyone...... "Your master, who is her name?" Lin Han's eyes moved slightly, and he asked in a low voice.
"Fran. Teressa, the strongest knight in Sky City! Anne excitedly exhaled the name she admired: "And the only female Grand Knight in the entire Trade Alliance!" ”
A strange smile appeared on the corner of Lin Han's mouth, and he stared at Anne for a moment before he shook his head lightly and regained his composure: "You, but you are as similar as her, the same...... It's kind of silly. ”
"Master is not stupid." Anne was very concerned about Lin Han's evaluation of Fran, and immediately retorted.
"yes, not stupid, just fooled by chivalry."
Lin Han shook his head with a smile, and didn't say the words in his heart, but opened the dynamic map provided by the mayor and looked at it carefully.
"Brother Lin Han, you said that those monsters haven't been here for so long, will they not come?" Anne saw that Lin Han was looking at the map, so she leaned over and asked with some expectation.
"The calm before the storm." Lin Han whispered, "Before the storm comes, if it is quieter, it means that the storm will be bigger!" ”
"However, no matter what, since I'm here, then I'm going to stick here, hold this town firmly, and protect you!"
"Brother Lin Han, I really didn't misunderstand you! You, in fact, are the same people as His Highness! ”
"Same as Fran?" Lin Han unconsciously looked at his task list.
There, the difficulty of the Mercenary Legends quest has changed because Lin Han has brought more villagers into Unicorn Town, from Legendary to Epic, and the requirement to complete the Epic difficulty quest is that within 24 hours, the survivors of Unicorn Town should be more than one-third.
Now there are more than 5,000 civilians in Unicorn Town, including villagers, plus nearly 1,000 guards and nobles, that is, 6,000 people, one-third, which means that Lin Han has to save at least 2,000 lives before he can complete the emergency mission of the mercenary group!
One third, it doesn't sound difficult, but Lin Han knows that after such a long time, the monsters can know that they have surrounded all the ways of the unicorn town, and they are clearing the refugees in the wild at this time, and after they are cleared, it is time for them to concentrate their forces and enjoy the feast!
However, this period has not been without good news......
The city of the Sanctuary also encountered the expected invasion of monsters, dozens of minotaur warriors under the leadership of a minotaur lord, commanded the surrounding thousands of werewolves and rat people army to flock to the city of the sanctuary, but under the city, the troops led by Li Junjie were defeated in one go, Li Junjie was even more of a seraph, in the chaos of the army, with the war spear condensed by the holy light, killed the 21-level minotaur lord, and established his prestige!
Li Junjie's success has greatly reduced the pressure on the Holy Domain City, although because of the distance, Lin Han can't let the remaining personnel of the mercenary group rush to help, but in an emergency, it is okay to summon Li Junjie, the Chosen One, to come.
However, the Seraphic Angel is the trump card in Lin Han's hand, and Lin Han does not plan to make it public all at once now.
Angels, has always been the sacred creature in the hearts of the human race, is the darling of God, its appearance, often means God's favor, is a symbol of hope and victory, his appearance, must be at the critical moment to have the greatest value!
Anne stood up, and after saying goodbye to Lin Han, she was about to step back to the camp to freshen up, when suddenly!
A breeze under the night sky.
Stopped!
Anne's body shook a little, and the helmet she was holding in her hand suddenly came out of her hand and fell to the ground.
"Ding Dong~!"
The helmet rolled at Lin Han's feet, but Lin Han was completely indifferent to this, he raised his head, his black eyes stared at the night sky in the distance, and after a pause, he shouted: "Prepare for battle!" ”
"Those monsters, here!"
"Monsters, here?"
Anne came back to her senses, shocked by Fang Cai's sudden sluggishness, and looked at Lin Han's gaze with uneasy eyes.
Suddenly, her mouth opened slightly, and she couldn't believe the monster she saw in front of her.
Under the night sky, an oval ball of meat with a diameter the size of a football field floats, and in the middle of the ball, an evil eye that can see through people's hearts is wide.
And around the meat ball, there are hundreds of meat whiskers fluttering, although those meat whiskers are very small compared to the meat ball monsters with huge size, but in fact, if they are placed in front of humans, the thinnest ones are the thickness of spears, and the thick ones are no less than the top stone pillars!
"Blame, monster!"
"What's that? What kind of monster is it? ”
"God, I'm trembling, I'm trembling!"
The soldiers on the city wall were awakened by Lin Han's roar, and then they were so unbearable that they were out of fear.
"It's the Evil Eye Lord, a powerful creature in the underworld with an aura of fear." Lin Han said in a low voice: "But the volume is so big, the level is at least above level 30!" ”
Level 30 has already exceeded the level limit mentioned in the legendary mercenary mission, but this is normal, who made Lin Han more difficult? In the case of epic difficulty, it is not impossible for a lord monster to appear above the character level of 10!
"Aura of Fear?" Anne's teeth chattered slightly, "That's what its aura does?" ”
"Well, it's scary, it's demoralizing." Lin Han said in a low voice: "This is also the reason why the armies of the underground world will definitely use the evil eye if they take the lead, and the one we encountered this time is still a lord-level monster, and its fear aura will be even stronger." ”
"However, there is no way to eliminate the impact." Lin Han has experienced a hundred battles, and after confirming his opponent, he immediately had a countermeasure in his heart.
Lin Han recruited three priests from the mercenary group.
"Are you afraid?" Looking at the three priests, Lin Han asked.
The three priests shook their heads slightly, their bodies trembling a little but not terribly.
"Oh? Why? Lin Han asked curiously, you must know that under the aura of fear of the Evil Eye Lord, even a level 20 knight like Annie would be frightened, let alone these mercenaries?
"Commander, why are we afraid?" The head priest is a man in the prime of life who is very inconsistent with his profession, he is wearing a pure white priest's robe, puffing out his shoulder muscles and saying: "I believe that the captain will resurrect me, even if the captain can't do it, there is also Deputy Head Wang Ping!" Now that we know that there is a chance to be resurrected, why don't we fight with our lives now! ”
"Well, yes, take your life!"
"Otherwise, when we die of old age, we will definitely regret dying when we lie in bed!"
The big man's bold answer caused the other two pastors to respond.
Lin Han didn't expect that it was because they looked down on death that they became resistant to fear, but he also said that when a group of people were not even afraid of death, what would they be afraid of?
"You three, give me your name." Lin Han said: "Forced by the situation, I will elevate you to the Chosen One on the spot and give you strength and skills!" ”
"The Chosen One!" The three pastors were excited, something they had heard of for a long time and had always dreamed of!
