Chapter 114: Additional Tasks
Although it was only more than twenty miles away from the destination, it was really impossible to move forward in the dark in the dark night, and it was really impossible to determine where the guy would hide and ambush, although the ambush might advance
In the night, in order to prevent the mysterious assassin from suddenly breaking into the sneak attack, he deliberately chose an extremely flat and wide place, and took advantage of the cover of the night to set up many simple traps and trigger warning devices around him, of course, those are actually just disguises, and the most important thing is actually those infrared warning devices that cannot be understood by humans in this era.
However, after staying up all night, nothing happened, as if the assassin had given up his intention to assassinate, and set off again only twenty miles away from Qingshan Pass, no matter how careful and slow he moved, but in three hours he had already seen the banner waving in the wind on the head of Qingshan Pass.
Because the border defense requires good visibility, the trees around it are cut down cleanly, even the grass and shrubs are eradicated quite cleanly, and all the people are bare for miles to hide.
The probability of encountering a large-scale ambush is already zero, as for the assassin who came over and attacked alone, it seems unlikely that the assassin would come and attack alone, without the cover of the night and the defense of more than two hundred elite archers, even if Zhang Tiancheng did not do it, the possibility of assassination was very low.
The archers of this world are indeed very good at dealing with those masters of the rivers and lakes, and there are not a few people who have mastered the technique of continuous arrows, and there are more than a dozen people in this escort team who can use continuous arrows, and fire as many as five arrows in a second.
Although the masters can easily block the first, second or even the third arrow, but the arrows that follow closely behind are really continuing to block, and can only passively dodge, if it is just one person, of course, the other party has no way, but if it is a team of people who cooperate well enough, then once the enemy dodges, it is very likely to fall into the trap, and the arrow can be said to be an inevitable result. Just like when Zhang Tiancheng faced the group of Tatartan cavalry, he was stuck like a hedgehog, and many times he would be hit by arrows if he had no way to dodge, if it wasn't for the invincible turtle shell, he would have died with thousands of arrows through his heart.
It seems that everything is unexpectedly smooth, seeing that the city gate of Zhu Qizhen and his party is open far away, the general soldier of Qingshan Pass personally led a group of people to greet him, and the appearance is also respectful, but what makes Zhang Tiancheng a little surprised is that after completing the handover of the escort task, he didn't see the reminder that the escort task was completed, but the task description clearly stated that as long as Zhu Qizhen was safely escorted to the pass, the task would be preliminarily completed......
Just when Zhang Tiancheng was a little puzzled, he suddenly felt a feeling of hair standing on his body, and without thinking about it, he directly pushed out Xiao Yang who was sitting in front, and flew backwards in an instant with the help of the reaction force, and when he rolled in the air and did not land, he took out the super alloy shield made of the same material as the Xuantie heavy sword, as well as the strengthened pistol, and out of the corner of his eye, he found a figure dressed in the service of an ordinary soldier instantly appeared beside him, and the dagger in his hand hit his head with a cold light.
Instantly raised his hand to block, a huge force hit the shield, the defense of the super alloy shield did not disappoint, the huge energy lore skill did not directly penetrate the shield, but the person was instantly knocked out and failed to fall, and the figure also flashed to the side like a shadow, and another blow to the neck, although it was still blocked by the shield, although it did not receive any substantial damage, but the left hand holding the shield was completely numb by the continuous re-attack.
The man still caught up with him, but Zhang Tiancheng, who had already come back to his senses, also launched a counterattack, and more than 30 bullets in the pistol instantly tilted out with a pull of the trigger, only to hear the sound of chaotic clanging, and the dagger in the assassin's hand was directly scrapped, but the figure moved quickly, and Zhang Tiancheng also quickly shook the muzzle of the gun to form a barrage.
This sudden situation, hundreds of sergeants instantly surrounded Zhu Qizhen in the distance, and more than a dozen military masters were ready to come forward to help, but when they saw that the owner of the Phoenix Village actually used that terrifying killing weapon, he immediately pushed it away from a distance, so as not to be affected, and even Xiao Yang did not dare to approach, it was not that she was afraid of death, but that she was afraid of causing chaos to the master.
After a shuttle of bullets, the assassin was indeed hit by two bullets, but none of them were fatal wounds.
Zhang Tiancheng was not too anxious, casually pressed the button to withdraw the magazine, and at the same time, the empty magazine was thrown out in an instant, and then he was locked by his eyes and retracted the space backpack, and a new magazine in the space backpack was locked in front of him at the same time and space, and the pistol was waved very quickly at the moment the magazine fell, and the new magazine was instantly loaded onto the pistol.
The series of actions of changing the magazine was compressed to within 0.2 minutes, and the muzzle of the gun turned slightly and a pop sounded, forming a barrage with nowhere to dodge.
This situation really made the assassin a little confused, the information he received last night was not like this, at least after the continuous firing of more than 30 rounds of hidden weapons, the pause time will be much longer than now, enough to complete the kill, but I didn't expect the information to be seriously deviated.
I could only curse secretly in my heart, and dodged frantically, but the speed of the person's movement was not as fast as the speed of shaking the muzzle of the gun, especially when the incident suddenly dodged in a hurry, and the body was hit by five bullets, although they had avoided the fatal place, but they were still extremely seriously traumatized.
However, because this guy accidentally absorbed the remains of the demon pill, he has unparalleled vitality, so although he was shot several times, he was still not directly beaten down, but he didn't dare to approach Zhang Tiancheng, and instantly rushed towards the crowd in the distance, and instantly plunged into the crowd and caused a riot, even if Zhang Tiancheng wanted to kill the other party, but he couldn't lock the other party in the chaotic crowd, and in the end, he was taken advantage of by this guy to escape.
can be 100% sure that the guy has someone in the city to answer, but he also started to find it in a short time, but what makes Zhang Tiancheng a little puzzled is why the target of that guy's assassination this time is himself, not Zhu Qizhen?
Although Zhu Qizhen has many guards around him, since that guy can blend into the ranks of soldiers unknowingly, the success rate of the assassination is still quite large, why would he give up the main owner and launch a sneak attack on him?
"Master, where did you get hurt?" Seeing that Zhang Tiancheng was a little in a daze, Xiao Yang, who came to his side, asked with concern.
"It's fine!" Saying that, he put away the super alloy shield, but when he opened the space backpack, he found a new message that was refreshed, but it was the information that the task was completed, but there was a new task of "The Danger of the Destruction of Phoenix Villa".
It is indeed a bit surprising that the escort mission was completed so easily, but what is even more surprising is that Phoenix Mountain Villa is in danger of destruction.
If the guess is correct, nine times out of ten, the assassin is not happy to be deflated for two consecutive times, and he can't kill the owner of the Phoenix Villa, so he is ready to go to the Phoenix Villa to find fault and get angry.
There are less than ten days left, and we must rush back within ten days, otherwise those girls themselves will definitely not be able to stop the attack of the top master.
Although it is an additional task, it will not affect your normal return if you can't complete it, but the reward is very tempting, the space backpack is doubled, and of course, even if there is no reward, you will try to rush back to solve the crisis.
