Chapter 24: Temporary cooperation with the Royal Sister
Wang Mancang listened carefully, but his eyes couldn't see the situation on the bridge, he was not a selector with superior mental power attributes, and there were no skills such as scanning or sixth sense, if he could see the bridge deck, maybe the skills would be recognized soon, and the person who came was also an acquaintance.
What Lao Wang heard was Hoffman, the handsome blonde man was slowly approaching the side of a carriage that stopped next to the railing of the bridge, and the silver cross sword in his hand was still in his hand, this weapon was used by a European like Hoffman, how to look at it, and the Chinese knight's sword looked as pleasing to the eye, but this fell in the eyes of the bamboo, but it represented more information, it seems that the trick weapon provided in the hunter's dream could not enter Hoffman's eyes.
There was also a familiar face not far behind him, it was another long-range in addition to Mary among the selectors, the black buddy Bloom, he had a Lee Enfield NO.4 short rifle flat on his waist, and the pistol he used to fight against the wolf beast was inserted in his waist, so it seems that this famous gun of World War II is his main battle weapon as a long-range.
The two retracted into the back of the carriage, Hoffman quickly glanced at the situation in the distance, and made a gesture to the short point of Bloom, who had been in a shooting position behind him, the black buddy's index finger moved slightly, and the bullet came out of the chamber with the crisp sound of the gun, Hoffman's timing was very good, the hunter's minions were facing away from him and Bloom's direction at this time, and he was shot without even seeing the enemy, but Bloom's accuracy was a little worse than Mary's, about less than 80 meters away, his shot only hit the back of the hunter's minions instead of the back of the head, and the damage of long-range weapons in this world itself is weak, which looks like it only dealt a few dozen points of damage.
The hunter's minions were furious, and naturally they roared and turned around and strode in the direction of the gunshots, breaking countless coffins and crates along the way, with an astonishing momentum.
However, the black buddy Bloom is a calm shooter, seeing the enemy rushing towards him, he steadily pulled the bolt of the gun and fired another shot, this time hitting the chest of the hunter's minions, and the blood splashed on the dark cyan muscles, and the damage was obviously not ideal.
There was also a flock of creeping crows beside the hunter's minions, and they also reacted at this time, and crawled forward one after another, quacking in their mouths, and their voices were even worse than ordinary crows.
They struggled to take off, but they were so heavy that they could no longer fly because they had swallowed too many beastly monsters, and could only crawl slowly with a disgusting black-brown slime.
Hoffman's combat talent is also very high, and he is not ambiguous about what Lao Wang will play, what he wants is the opportunity for the crow flock and the hunter minions to fight separately because of the speed difference, which is the same as the old king likes to play the joint and likes to pick the farthest patrol route of a single enemy.
Now he grasped it just right, so he clenched the cross sword in his hand, strode out from the back of the carriage, and faced the minions of the rushing orcs, and even the engagement routine of the enemy was almost the same as that of the old king.
The speed of the two sides of the right is not slow, a few breaths together, the hunter minions have no fresh moves, and when the opponent enters the attack range, he raises the brick in his right hand high and smashes it hard, Hoffman is cold smile, the figure fluctuates strangely, the hunter's minions of the brick hit his body at this time, just like the reflection in the water was thrown into the stone, the ripples are a few times and weirdly combined, into a complete Hoffman, still a handsome blonde guy who laughs and groans, and the hunter's minions are like monkeys fishing for the moon, no matter how fierce the attack, it is all in vainγ
The snowy cross sword stabbed out from the place where the ripples returned to calm, and the original silver-white and snowy sword body was actually dotted with blue points of light that were almost invisible to the naked eye at this moment, and it roared and pierced into the chest of the hunter's minions, and the cross sword that was more than one meter long did not fall into the thick flesh of the hunter's minions, and pierced deeply into nearly half, and the hunter's minions screamed in pain, amazing attack! This guy who still needs Lao Wang to help him fight as a meat shield in the face of wolf beasts, at this moment he shows such amazing combat effectiveness!
Wang Mancang and Takenaka stood under the bridge, they could still only listen to the excitement above, they didn't know how terrible Hoffman was showing, they were looking at each other and smiling at the moment, everyone is not their own people, they naturally don't think it's a big deal to see the excitement, and the selectors who can go all the way to the mission ring 3 should not be fake goods, but it doesn't hurt for them to consume it.
They listened to the argument, and they were already sure that there were already selectors above, and the movement showed that the number of pickers was very likely to be more than one, if there was no Mary among them, then the number of pickers they could assemble now had reached 5, in Takenaka's calculations, this was a number that could compete with the clergy beast, and if he saw Hoffman fighting, the trend of this evaluation was estimated to change.
The hunter minions on the bridge howled angrily, and from time to time there was the crisp sound of a rifle shooting, and the sound of a sharp blade entering the flesh, if you listen carefully enough, you can also tell that the footsteps are all around the roar in an orderly manner, Wang Mancang is now also a small expert in close combat, hearing this step point, he winked at Zhuzhong, and said softly: "Bamboo, there is a melee expert above, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner without losing proportion, except for the few steps just now, until now the basic steps are stepping on a point, it should be Hoffman's thing." After saying that, he felt amazing, such a martial arts style pretending to be 13 tricks, and after he strengthened his own attributes, it was not even a skill for him, with instinct to listen, and then judged, he could get a general situation.
"I don't need to say that Uncle I know!" Takenaka was a little annoyed, "Originally, I still had a plan, which was to see if Uncle could subdue the remaining selectors by force, so as to threaten others to grab the right to distribute the leather bags dropped by the boss this time, but now it seems that I have to re-plan." β
"The young man is so greedy!" Lao Wang stretched out his hand and wanted to rub the little brain melon in the bamboo, but the other party saw the situation and avoided it, so he could only continue to rely on the education of the old man and sell the old: "If you are greedy, be careful to kill you!"
Takenaka pursed his lips, not caring at all about the bitterness of the old king, and continued to listen intently to the battle on the bridge, the roars of the hunter's minions had become more and more frequent, and it seemed that the selector had gained the upper hand and was constantly throwing damage on the enemy.
"Hehehe, how can a child be disobedient? Your uncle is right, the goal must always be within the scope of his ability. β
It's broken, it's over! Lao Wang's goosebumps bulged all over his body like electricity, his right hand kept going, holding the axe instinctively in the direction of the source of the sound, and at the same time scolding himself in his heart for being careless, cocking his tail, Wang Mancang! You float, you! Listen to the devil, right? I thought it was not ambiguous, I was pretending to be a praying mantis to catch cicadas here, and now the yellow finch is here, right?!
The person who spoke laughed a few more times, and his voice sounded a little farther away, as if he had just made an evasive move in order to avoid Lao Wang's slash: "Why are the big man's eyes so small, are you so anxious to kill me, Mr. San?"
No, this little movement sounds familiar! She's...
"It's me, is it because I robbed that hunter's minions?" A slender and slender figure slowly walked out of the shadows on the other side of the bridge, with heroic facial features and deep playful eyesβit was Mary!
"Bamboo, stay close to me. Seeing that Mary's hands were empty, and that she was carrying a long and narrow thing wrapped in sackcloth behind her back, as if she had come to talk about things, he was cautious and pulled a hand, and kept his guard against this beautiful enemy.
Takenaka was also startled by the sudden sound, and immediately stood by his side with Lao Wang's movements, looking at Mary's little face with a bad expression, and the rebar cane in his hand was also clenched, if Lao Wang made a move, he would follow next.
"But there are two of you, and at such a close distance, you still have to be afraid of me as a weak woman who attacks from a distance?" Mary didn't recognize her life, smiled and spread her hands and took another step forward.
What Lao Wang is most afraid of is to deal with this type of woman, they are independent, and from time to time they still treat men as playthings, like a cunning cat, teasing you, but they will never let you hold them easily.
He didn't know how to answer Mary's question for a while, the beautiful girl in front of him reminded him of Andariel in the world of rookie trials, how do those young people who watch anime call them this type, Royal Sister, by the way!
"Miss Mary, I believe you should have no ill intentions here, if I guessed correctly, it should have something to do with Mission Ring 3, right?" Takenaka was much more angry than Wang Mancang, and immediately asked Mary after reacting.
"Dear little brother in Takeko, I knew you were the one who spoke to your little group. Mary's voice was tepid, looking at Takenaka and smiling, but Takenaka ignored her and continued directly: "If you propose cooperation, we are also very welcome, and we will not pursue other matters, but what kind of sincerity can you show?"
Mary looked at Takenaka's appearance, spread her hands and said: "If the material sincerity is really not available, the monsters in Mission Ring 2 drop some mercury bullets and blood collection bottles, random points and high-level currency are also very important to me, and the two of you are so sure that the calf can kill the BOSS of Mission Ring 3?
The old king knew that he was doomed when he opened his mouth, so he could only be anxious in his heart, bamboo, this old lady is powerful enough, you see that she took away the previous robbery in a few words, and now she grabbed the pigtail on her side and began to threaten, you have to be careful to deal with it, don't be careless, our grandfather and son have lost it.
"Miss Mary asked like this, can I also think that you also want to get a piece of the boss pickup?"
"What a great little brother, I'll be straight to the point" Mary raised her beautiful eyebrows, which made the old Wang who was staring at her itch for no reason, and looked at Mary with a smile and said: "I have always been a solo activity in Mission Ring 2, and I have secretly observed the battles between your duo and the duo above, and when it comes to combat effectiveness on the table, you are even worse." β
"Then why did you find us to cooperate in the first place?" Takenaka wondered.
"Because the duo above originally had three people. Mary sighed and said: "This combination still lost a selector in Mission Ring 2, that is, Jeanne, the woman who used the bayonet, she was slapped on the head by the hunter's minions, it looked like an accident, but I always felt strange in my heart, after observing you, I think that fighting with you as a team at least do not have to worry about being sold at any time, and after I joined, your table strength surpassed that of the other party, for the sake of interests, you also had to join me." β
"Is it the difference between giving charcoal in the snow and icing on the cake, Miss Mary didn't say a word, we are afraid of your defection, and we will take you more seriously than the other party. Takenaka rolled his eyes and said to Mary.
Mary shrugged her shoulders and looked noncommittal, Takenaka has always been a small ghost, and this sentence does get to the point, the basis of cooperation between the two parties is that there must be goals that are in line with the common interests of both parties, and if only one party is beneficial, such cooperation will not succeed.
"Uncle, is it okay?" Takenaka thought for a while, turned his head to look at Wang Mancang and asked, which showed that he regarded Lao Wang as the leader, and he was also afraid that Lao Wang would not be able to turn over the article where Mary robbed the monster, so Lao Wang naturally did not hate the other party's temperament because of trivial matters, so he simply nodded in agreement.
Takenaka turned to Mary again, and the smile on his little face was like that of an insurance salesman, "Happy cooperation!"
......
The battle on the bridge deck was over, Hoffman bent down and grabbed a small leather bag from the light spots that emerged from the hunter's minions, and grabbed it tightly, the small leather bag shattered into countless points of light, and then the information system prompted, 5 mercury bullets were added to his personal space, this is the pickup mode in the trial world, he and Bloom have combined far and near, and now even the creeping crow flock on the ground has been cleaned up, but the treasure drop rate in this world is really touching, and they only got a total of 5 mercury bullets for what they just harvested.
He shook his head, and with a flash in his palm, the mercury bullet had appeared in his hand, and he directly handed it to Bloom, who was already walking over with a gun behind him, and said, "5 mercury bullets, add up." β
The black buddy silently took the bullet and nodded slightly.
"The refresh time of the monster refresh is exactly 3 hours, the bridge deck is safe for the time being, we are waiting here, and we will enter in 1 hour, no matter how many people we form by then, we must continue to move forward. After Hoffman finished talking about the tactical arrangement, he walked to the railing by the bridge and leaned, closed his eyes and began to pretend to sleep, and the black buddy sat on the ground, spread the Lee Enfield NO.4 short rifle in his hand on his lap, and lowered his head thoughtfully.
In the bridge cave under them, Wang Mancang's 3 temporary cooperation team had been formed, and Takenaka proposed not to show up to talk about cooperation with Hoffman for the time being, and use the current temporary safe time to make tactical arrangements, and Wang Mancang naturally agreed.
Although Mary seems to be a person with ideas, after officially joining the team, she also began to listen to Takenaka's plan and arrangement naturally, and did not raise objections, she was only a long-range, and she did not have any dangerous work to charge into battle, and Takenaka's tactical arrangements did not involve her much.
"That's pretty much it, do you have anything to add to Uncle and Miss Mary?" Takenaka finished explaining and looked at the two people opposite.
Wang Mancang shook his head, and Mary raised her hand.
"Miss Mary?"
"Only one thing, even if you can accept me into your team, why can you trust me so directly and tell me the whole strategy?" Mary's question was not about planning, but like a reminder to Lao Wang and Takenaka that they were dangerous elements.
"Honestly, I don't believe it. Takenaka's answer was very calm, he pointed at Wang Mancang and said: "Uncle just nodded and agreed to you joining, I believe him, if something goes wrong, I will find a way to remedy it." β
Mary was stunned, but she couldn't help but want to remind the big and small in front of her, wake up, two! This is a random space! It's a world of trials!
"The old lady is just chattering," Wang Mancang ignored Mary at all, and had already turned around and climbed up a ladder next to the bridge hole: "You are so old in the vernacular, but in the end, cooperation will have meat to eat, and you won't get any benefit from trapping us to death, I don't understand what you guys have been nagging, can you betray us? Hurry up, let's go up quickly after chattering, and we have to swing (negotiate) with the yellow-haired devil!"
Takenaka looked at Mary, who was dumbfounded by Wang Mancang, and the queen's deflated meal made him laugh a little gloatingly.
"Uncle is a little simpler, but he is not stupid, most of the time he can grasp the essence of the problem more directly than those of us who think more. β
