Volume II, The Lost Trail of the Sand Sea Chapter 144, The Last Tatunan

"How is this possible!" Chen Tao looked at Ye Rong with a surprised expression, "Didn't you say that Tatunaan is gone?" ”

"I don't know, but look at the mask on their heads, it's the rat god mask on the face of the Tatunan guard!"

In the distance, the two sides exchanged fire, and Chen Tao and the three of them hid behind the mound, not knowing what to do next.

"Damn, where's Haozi?" As soon as Chen Tao turned around, he found that Haozi was gone, and he was busy looking around to search.

His eyes swept over the sand dunes not far away, and Chen Tao's eyes almost popped out. Haozi didn't know when he had already run over, and was lying next to the bearded two dead minions, pulling at the equipment on the corpse.

"Holy! Come back soon, Haozi! ”

At this time, they were in the middle of the mouse-faced masked man and the bearded man, and any shuttle on any side could kill the three of them.

Looking at Haozi in the distance, Chen Tao couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart, this kid is really like a mouse, he will go out as soon as he gets a free moment!

The two of them held their rifles and stared to the side, watching with trepidation as Haozi touched a large pile of things from the two corpses, wrapped them in a large robe on the corpses, and dragged them back up.

The two waves of people in the distance were fighting the murderers, and no one paid attention to the loss, Haozi dragged the big cloth bag, and a rifle was hanging on his shoulder, jumping fast in the dark. I've walked back blindly.

"Haozi, can you stop doing things like this!" Chen Tao suppressed his throat and burst into flames.

"Look at your cowardice!" Haozi smacked his lips disapplausively, "Success is the best thing, and wealth is in danger!" You kid just think about how to thank me! ”

With that, he opened the cloth bag wrapped in the clothes, and there were a lot of stuffs in it. There were bullets and magazines, as well as some simply packaged jerky, two large water bladders, and even a palm-sized flat iron kettle.

Chen Tao picked it up and smelled it, it turned out to be a pot of wine!

"Right now, we have to be equipped or not, we want food and no appetite, how do you say that, there are no guns and no cannons, the enemy makes it for us! Don't dislike the two of you, in this kind of place, survival is the most important thing! ”

The three of them divided their things and hid behind the mound with their rifles.

"What should we do next, the maze is so big, it is very likely that you will be trapped if you rush in, and the two waves of people over there are fighting again, we have to think of a countermeasure!" Ye Rong asked.

"The mussels compete, and the fishermen profit. Let them fight first, and when they both lose, let's give them a pot! A hint of cunning flashed in Haozi's eyes.

"No......" Chen Tao shook his head, "They won't give us that chance, even if we really fight to the death, but the camel with thin hands is bigger than the horse, and we are not the opponent of either of them." ”

After a pause, Chen Tao said again: "I'm thinking, why did those people wearing masks save us, Ye Rong, do you know them?"

Ye Rong shook her head: "I can't figure it out like you, this time I came out alone, and I have never seen those people."

"Don't panic, enemy

The enemy is a friend, and I think we can try to cooperate with them! Chen Tao glanced at the two.

"I said, Young Master Chen, you kid has been by Uncle Long's side for a long time, and you are getting more and more like Uncle Long?" Haozi nodded in agreement.

On the other side, the bearded man and the others fell into a stalemate with the masked men, and the two sides used the natural mound around the maze as a cover, and kept shooting at each other, which gradually turned into a war of attrition.

Suddenly, the rough roar of the bearded man came from the darkness, although they were all speaking that kind of ancient language, but with Ye Rong translating on the side, Chen Tao and they could also understand it.

"Balohard!" The bearded man yelled, "Why are you helping those shreds!" ”

"Orangk, I didn't help anyone, you guys get out of here immediately, no one is allowed to enter the Holy City!"

"Hmph, a group of slaves who have died in the country, you really think you are the guardian saints!"

"I warn you O'Rank, get out of here, I can let you go, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Ballohard, you can't stop us, he's already here! The end of Tatunaan is near! ”

The bearded man cursed loudly and withdrew into the maze with his men. Chen Tao listened to their conversation and was horrified in his heart, could it be that these people were really Tatunans?

"Chen Tao be careful!"

Still thinking in his head, Ye Rong's scream suddenly sounded in his ears, and he saw a white light flashing in front of him, and a gloomy long knife had already slashed at Chen Tao's neck.

Qiang !!

Chen Tao didn't think about it, his body was completely instinctive, and he pulled out the short knife and blocked it.

The blades collided with each other, and there was a screech. Before Chen Tao could react again, the long knife was drawn, and it slashed diagonally towards Chen Tao's shoulder.

Qiang !! Qiang Qiang !!

The knife was castrated, and when Chen Tao looked up, he saw a figure flash out from behind the mound, and the knife edge turned over and slashed towards him again.

At this time, Chen Tao's brain was blank, and only the bright long knife was left in his eyes. I don't know where I got my reaction, so I held the short knife in my hand and went straight up.

Qiang !! Qiang !!

blocked several knives in a row, and Chen Tao found an opportunity to dodge after following the man's strength.

This knife came fiercely, and the strength was so great that Chen Tao's mouth was almost cracked when he was shocked, and his feet retreated one after another, and the short knife in his hand was even buzzing.

Whoosh!

Seeing that Chen Tao was suddenly in trouble, Haozi on the side reacted and raised his hand to see three long nails, and the man in the dark waved his knife like the wind, only hearing three crisp sounds, and he took them all down!

Haozi supported Chen Tao, who was retreating, and Ye Rong also reacted at this time, raising the rifle to shoot a shot.

Dada.......

The man's reaction was not slow, seeing that Ye Rong had fired, he rolled on the spot and hid behind the mound, the bullet hit the mound, and the gravel and dirt were scattered everywhere.

"Damn, whoever!" Chen Tao rubbed his aching right hand, and was protected by Haozi and Ye Rong in the middle.

"Sock, come back!"

The three of them were vigilant, just

A man's muffled voice was heard in the darkness, and then the surrounding fires were stirring, and people in white with torches and rat head masks surrounded them from behind the mounds in all directions.

It was really just out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den, Chen Tao and the three looked at the crowd around them, all raised their rifles, and watched them vigilantly.

"What do you want to do!" Chen Tao roared.

"The reaction is very fast, there are not many people who can take so many knives from Soke."

As he spoke, a person walked out of the crowd, tall, sturdy, also dressed in a gray-white robe, the difference was that his mask was silver, flashing a layer of black light in the light of the torch, and the rat teeth on the mask were hideous, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and he looked very mad.

You don't have to think about it to know that this person must be the leader of this group.

The man walked out of the crowd, looked Chen Tao up and down, and asked, "Who are you and what is your relationship with Ou Langke!" ”

"It doesn't matter!" Chen Tao's eyes were cold, "Why did you save us?" ”

"Heh......" the man smiled, "it's my job to guard this, and I'm not trying to save you." ”

"Is the legend true?" Ye Rong opened his mouth at this time, "You are the guardians of Tatunaan, the descendants of Prince Ulster's guards?" ”

The man was noncommittal, and turned his head to glance at Ye Rong, "You know a lot. ”

Then he circled around Chen Tao and the three of them, "You are also here for Tatunaan, get out of here, otherwise, die!" ”

Seeing that this group of people was not as vicious as the bearded men, Chen Tao waved his hand at Haozi and them, signaling them to put down their guns.

"We're not here for Tatunaan, I'm here to save people!"

"Saving people?" The man shook his head, "Whatever your reason, you can't set foot in here for half a step. ”

"Then why did Orenc go in?" Chen Tao was a little unconvinced.

"There's no way they're going to get out of the maze alive." The man turned, "I don't want the foreigners to defile the Holy City, so one last warning to you, get out of here!" ”

"What if we can help you stop him?" Ye Rong suddenly spoke. "You know what I'm talking about."

The man looked at Ye Rong and didn't speak for a long time.

"Why should I believe you?"

"It's up to him." Ye Rong pointed at Chen Tao.

"You?" The Silver Rat Masked Man glanced at Chen Tao.

"He is Chen You's grandson."

"What!" The man was visibly stunned, "It's their descendant!" ”

Chen Tao was confused as he listened, and he didn't know what Ye Rong and this weird person were talking about.

At the same time, he also confirmed his previous speculation.

Ye Rong, this woman, really didn't tell the truth!

The masked monster didn't say a word for a long time, pacing the ground for a long time, and then he spoke.

"Okay, I'll take you inside!"

The man took off his mask, and Chen Tao looked at the man's face, with dark skin, firm eyes, and a beard on his mouth.

"My name is Ballohad, the commander of the Guard."

"Chen Tao."

Balohad

Nodding, he shouted to the group behind him, and they dispersed.

"The maze is guarded by undead, and you can't pass through the maze at night, and you can only wait until sunrise to get in." Ballohad said to Chen Tao and the others: "I can take you into the Holy City, but you must listen clearly, you must not take anything from it, otherwise, we will all die!" ”

Chen Tao nodded, although he also knew that there were countless treasures in Tatunaan, but compared to these things, he was more worried about Uncle Long's safety.

Unable to enter the maze at the moment, a group of people can only rest on the spot and wait for tomorrow's sunrise.

"Have you ever seen any of these people?" Chen Tao took out a photo from his backpack and handed it to Ballohard.

Balohad took the photo and looked at it for a long time, pointing to one of the people in the photo: "This person, I know where he is!"
