Chapter Forty-Six: Nescalu's Attack
"Buzz~Buzz~" Two shrill noises woke Karel from his sleep.
There are enemies! Before falling asleep, he set up a circle of alarms around the tent, and as long as someone touched the silk-like thin wire, the alarm would remember, and emitted a high-frequency humming sound, which was enough to wake people up from their sleep without alarming the intruders.
Awake, Karel slowly touched his dagger as he watched a sharp blade glittering with gray-white light slice through the tent with ease, and then slowly leaned in.
First the blade, then the arm covered in bone spurs, then the eerie head with a hard exoskeleton that resembles a fly.
The moment his head poked in, Karel instantly burst out, grabbed the attacker's left arm with his left hand, held the dagger with his right hand, and a backhand stab, instantly pierced the monster's neck, a dagger, purple blood gushed out, and soon, the purple skin on this monster turned white.
Grabbing the dead monster by the neck, Karel dragged it into the tent.
"Nescaru?" Lu Lin, who woke up, looked at the monster corpse lying on the sleeping mat and said in surprise.
Neskaru is a humanoid creature with a soft body wrapped in a hard exoskeleton, a natural killer with incredible agility and an unusually sharp bone blade derived from his arms, which can almost cut through gold and iron.
"Is this the thing?" Flicking the liquid from the dagger, Karel looked out along the torn tent, where humanoids were faintly moving in the firelight.
"Yes, Neskaru generally lives in mountainous areas, not swamps, where the humid environment can damage their exoskeleton." While rummaging through the corpses, Lu Lin said, "You see, there are already some dark spots here, which means that these guys have been in the swamp for a long time. ”
"Then why is Nescalu in this swamp?"
"I don't know, but I'm guessing these guys might have been drawn in."
"Attract?"
"Yes, the shadow energy has a fatal attraction to Nescaru, and there have been a few times when they have been found in places where Neskaru is impossible, and then they have found abundant Shadow Crystal Mines or other things that contain Shadow Energy."
"So, maybe it's the powerful source of shadow energy in the swamp that attracted these guys, or maybe the thing that attracted these Nescalu is the source of the destruction of Misty Town?" Reflecting on Lulin's words, Karel guessed. "You stay here first, and I'll kill all the Neskaru outside." With that, Karel went into stealth and walked out of the breach in the tent.
At this time, the Wolf Adventure Troupe, which had discovered that something was wrong, had begun to become agitated, and the Wolf Bands took up arms to fight the invading Nescalu.
Humans in this world tend to be warriors and mages, and there are more people in these two classes than all the other professions combined, after all, wearing heavy armor, holding huge weapons, violently tearing apart the enemy's body, or wearing elegant mage robes, waving a staff, the power of fire and ice to crush an enemy, these are the romance of adventurers, aren't they?
Therefore, due to this, most of the team members are warriors, and because of this, they are very passive in the face of the very agile Nescaru.
Nescalu's weapons are two bone blades diffracted from the body, which can slash more than 20 times a second on average, and heavy weapons such as giant swords and giant hammers used by humans, although they are huge, they can kill a Nescalu by rubbing it, but the speed is also very slow, and it can be swung 1-2 times a second, so after Dodging the first attack of the human warrior, Nescalu can use his bone blade to tear the throat of the human warrior fiercely during the interval between attacks!
Carrel was so careful that he walked behind a Nescalu who was circling around Delmot, stretched out his left hand and grabbed Nescalu's shoulder, turned it around, and slashed the monster's neck with a dagger in his right hand like lightning, and then stabbed it into the waist with a backhand, and then pulled it hard, killing Nescalu instantly with two fatal wounds.
Boom! There was a loud bang, even the earth trembled, Delmot raised the giant hammer in his hand, and the Nescalu under the hammer was directly crushed to smithereens!
"Phew, thank you, strange friend." Delmot shook the hammer in his hand, and some purple-red liquid slowly dripped down.
"Thank you for later, it's better to kill the invaders first." Looking at the chaos around him, Karel said.
"Good! I attract attention, and you kill with one blow. Seeing Karel's profession, Delmot didn't say much, directly arranged his tactics, and rushed towards the crowd that was still fighting......
Although Neskaru is invincible in sneak attacks and assassinations, it is just some beasts that act on instinct, and the joint strangulation of the members of the Wild Wolf Mercenary Regiment on the opposite side, soon, the last Neskaru was reduced to ashes in the flames of the magician.
"As far as I know, the Misty Swamp doesn't have any well-known specialties, and there are no missions, and this time the team mission was also given to the San Diego Academy, so why are you here?" After fighting together, the relationship between the two sides has obviously eased a lot, at least you can sit at a table to eat and chat, if in the game, the reputation has changed from cold to friendly.
When Karel asked this, he saw that the faces of the people around him changed, and the expressions of sadness and anger filled everyone's faces.
"Did I say anything that shouldn't have been said?" Looking at the eerie atmosphere in an instant, Karel asked worriedly.
"No, it's nothing, do you know the origin of our wolf mercenary group?" Delmot said.
"I don't know."
"Our Wolf Mercenary Regiment, everyone here, including those who died in those damn Neskaru attacks just now, we've known each other since childhood, we came out of Misty Town!" Delmot took out a flask and unscrewed it, and a spicy smell wafted out, and Delmot took a big sip.
"All of us are from Misty Town, we agreed to grow up and go out together, and then come back together when we have achieved something, we are back now, but, I didn't expect it! I didn't expect it!! As he spoke, two lines of tears slowly flowed from the eyes of the tall and mighty man. Delmot took out a small bag full of sparkling gems, and then, to everyone's surprise, Delmot threw the bag into the sky, scattering the gems everywhere like rain. "Daddy, mother, I'm back! I went out for a lap and came back! I'm back! Woo-woo...... "Delmot cried like a child.
