"It's time to report the time, let's rest."

Somewhere in the Fertile Ground City.

A squad of EUP.

One of the members glanced at the time and spoke.

When everyone heard this, they all stopped, and tacitly walked a few steps to the side, and entered an alley to escape the cold wind.

"It's early in the morning, and it doesn't seem to be the same as ever, right?" A man asked.

The rest of the people did not speak, their faces gloomy.

Because of the stipulation of "reporting points", they have a clearer sense of time, and as a result, they discovered this anomaly very early, but after all, in the projection, this is not too much to worry about.

There were other reasons for the silence in the team.

……

In the alley, Dward lifted his wizard's robe and reached for the communication box with his frozen, slightly stiff hand.

Instead of immediately entering the barcode representing himself, he stared at the snow under his feet and the cold wind howling outside the alley with his gray-blue eyes.

"Hoo ......"

He exhaled deeply, his nose twitching, and began to type his numbers one by one.

The communication box has some protection mechanism, so it is not until he has typed the correct "password" that the circular screen lights up, revealing sparse markings.

At the same time, there are also large gray markings on it, many of which have been marked in red, which means that the member it represents has not reported the point twice in a row and has not responded to the calls of other members.

And in this case, it can basically be determined that the owner of the number has died.

"Eight more dead."

Dward heard the tall knight beside him speak in a deep voice.

At this moment, there was no ridicule or schadenfreude on the knight's face.

In the last few hours, the number of "missing" members of the EUP has been soaring.

At first, there were only three or two missing, which did not attract their attention too much, firstly, because the other party was not confirmed to be dead, and secondly, it was ...... Even the fifth rank cannot ensure safety, and those ubiquitous mechanical monsters, as well as the Xia Kingdom Trisi who may meet, or those powerhouses in the "miscellaneous fish", can completely inflict fatal damage on them.

However, as the next few reports and the number of "missing contacts" increased, they finally sensed that something was wrong.

"There are so many people who have died...... It's too fast......"

"Even if you bump into Tris, it stands to reason that you won't die so much...... In particular, with such a large area, it is difficult to meet each other. ”

This bizarre incident immediately alarmed everyone in the EUP, however, no matter how tightly they frowned, the number of missing people continued to rise.

Every time he "reported the point", it seemed to be a trial, and when Dward saw the names that were constantly dimming, his heart was raised higher and higher, and the atmosphere of the whole team became more and more dull.

They had no intention of laughing or talking, only that the city seemed to hide a pair of peeping eyes, which could poke out their sharp claws at any moment and wipe their lives off the earth.

This pressure is suffocating and tense nerves, seriously affecting their exploration efficiency.

"We can't go on like this, we have to find a way."

The tall knight beside Dward suddenly clenched his fists and hammered down the green bricks of the alley, and the cold masonry immediately cracked through the cracks in the avenue.

"What do you want to do?"

"Confluence! Request a convergence! Only when there are many people can we resist the risk! ”

"Hehe, finally admit that you're a coward?"

“…… Be! I'll admit it, you're satisfied, right? Anyway, I don't want to just disappear in a daze! So many people have disappeared silently, and I'm not so arrogant as to think I can be better than them! ”

The quarrel continued, each other was venting their anxiety, Dward was wearily holding his staff, almost smelling the smell of gunpowder in the air, and finally, just when he could barely bear it anymore and was about to participate, a person in the group who had been silent suddenly interrupted everyone: "Stop arguing! Did you feel something was wrong? ”

Wrong?

Both sides of the quarrel were stunned at the same time, and immediately suppressed their anger and calmly sensed their surroundings, and then they found that their surroundings had become extremely silent, and the crows of crows full of frustration echoed in the cold city.

Dward's head looked up to see a large crow hovering above them.

This made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable, as if there was a murderous intent entwined.

"Listen!"

Suddenly, the knight beside him screamed, and in an instant, Dward heard the originally silent city suddenly commotion.

"Rustling ......"

There was a small crumbling sound.

Even if it's such a heavy snowstorm, it can't cover it.

The moment they heard this voice, the expressions of several people present changed at the same time.

Along the way, they were all too familiar with the sound, it was clearly the friction and knocking sound of mechanical monsters crawling on the ruins, but the sound in their ears at this moment was countless times louder than the previous encounter.

The sound grew louder and louder, and it was extremely disturbing.

Everyone immediately formed a defensive array, looked around, and then, countless pairs of scarlet eyes appeared in the dark sky.

Dense...... Dense......

Emerge from every nook and cranny of the city, casting a cold, senseless gaze.

Deward and the others immediately had cold hands and feet, and their hearts were shocked.

Why?

Why is there so much mechanical life all of a sudden?

This is very different from what I have seen before!

"Breakout! Break out now! ”

The tall knight shouted.

Most of these soldiers are not very strong, but there are also many fifth-level soldiers hidden among them, and besides, the number is huge, if they are entangled, a few people will never survive.

"Buzz ......"

Dward decisively stabbed his staff to the ground at the entrance of the alley, and in an instant, a brilliant light burst out, and the earthy yellow elements condensed, quickly erecting a high wall, and communicating with both sides, closing the passage.

The other knight raised his sword and slashed to the side.

"Boom ......"

A gap broke in the bluestone wall, and several merfolk rushed in.

At the same time, the crow's wail resounded in the sky again, and the soldiers who were densely packed all over the streets and alleys immediately activated, surrounding and killing several people from all directions.

"Click!"

The tall knight slashed with a sword light, sending a flying mechanical beast flying, but more swarmed him.

Dward suddenly raised his staff, the spiritual energy in his body poured in, and in the loud noise, smoke and dust rose everywhere, snow foam flew, and a tall earth elemental giant drilled out of the ground, but did not attack, but just lay down, protected everyone under him, and used his elemental body to resist the attack of the mechanical soldiers.

"Quick! I won't last long! ”

Dward shouted anxiously.

The other wizard nodded, suddenly gritted his teeth, spat out a mouthful of blood, and infected a gem in his hand, which immediately released terrifying psionic energy fluctuations, almost frantically extracting the surrounding aura, and constantly expanding, as if it would explode in the next moment, sending everyone into a catastrophe.

"Open!"

After about ten seconds, he shouted, his face was pale, and his lips were blue Dward took a few steps back when he heard the sound, and the elemental giant red man disintegrated, and at the same time, a red light rose, like a fire pouring into the sky, spitting outward, burning, and burning again, melting the shells of those soldiers into a puddle of molten iron!

The firelight was magnificent, like a blooming red rose, reflecting half of the sky.

"Let's go!"

The tall knight grabbed the weakened wizard and rushed towards a gap.

However, just as they broke out of the encirclement of the mechanical soldiers, their footsteps suddenly stopped!

"Come if you want, leave if you want, have you asked me?"

Cheng Lin was wearing a black windbreaker, his face was blurred, his body was thin, he stood in the wind and snow, and whispered softly.

It's a pity that the wind and snow are too big, so no one hears clearly.

The people of the EUP don't want to hear it either.

At this moment, although they didn't know who the person in front of them was, they had no time to think about it, and the soldiers behind them were like a tide, crushing the flames with their bodies and chasing after them.

"Slash!"

The tall knight's armor shook and soared into the air, the giant sword in his hand hummed, plated with silver light, and his body moved forward, making a sprint, like a real cavalryman on the battlefield.

In the next second, the pattern of the psionic armor instantly lit up, and the super power pulled its speed up to a terrifying situation.

Just in the blink of an eye!

The tall knight had already swung his sword and rushed in front of Cheng Lin.

The heavy sword fell, causing the aura to roll like a tide, the weight of this sword was unprecedented for Cheng Lin.

His eyes lit up slightly, and he didn't choose to dodge, but spread his legs apart, supported his body, raised his right hand, grabbed a pitch-black sword body and greeted it, and at the same time, the golden body was opened!

"Click!!

The violent impact caused the aura to be disordered, and within a hundred meters of the surrounding area, snow avalanches up, obscuring people's vision.

Seconds later, the dust settled.

A heavy sword that was cut off alive fell through the air, and stabbed in front of Deward with a "tuk", and the broken mouth trembled slightly!
