Section 58 Remote Exploration
"Actually, don't worry, if the demon attacks, you only need to hold on for seven hours." Jessica looked at her brain. "In seven hours, Master Lifik will be back."
"Lord Lifik."
"The outpost's excellent witcher, mid-level awakening, with a good record of appearance." Jessica explained. "With him on board, we should be able to withstand this wave of attacks and maybe even fight back."
Chen Yan noticed that when he mentioned this Lord Lifike, Jessica's eyes seemed to be glowing, and her face was filled with a faint pride.
"He's your boyfriend?"
"No, he's the patron saint of the outpost." Jessica flicked her long hair. Apathy reverted. "I know what you're trying to say, but I think that any individual's emotions and desires are narrow-minded compared to survival. Lord Lifik has dedicated ten years to the outpost, fending us off no less than five demonic attacks, and he deserves everyone's respect. If he needs my flesh, then I will willingly do it. ”
"Oh......" Chen Yan whistled. Sounds great. ”
"It's bigger than you think." Jessica glanced at Chen Yan deeply.
"Now please stand by the outpost, and you can also go to the fence and take a look. However, they are not allowed to leave the outpost. Your orders will be delivered to your butler as soon as possible, so please be ready to attack at any time. This is not a drill, Lord Chen Yan, if you can't show your value, then I'm afraid your image and status in this post will be hit. ”
"Trust me, that's not what you and I want to see."
With that, Jessica turned and left. Looking at her graceful back, Chen Yan shrugged his shoulders to his subordinates. "Girl with personality."
"Miss Jessica is respectable." Shente replied. "She's the best assistant to hunt demons."
"Shall we go up to the fence immediately?" Xiu asked. "I need to adjust the mount."
"Then let's go check it out." Chen Yan replied.
The group left the Demon Hunter Hut and headed towards the outpost. At this time, it can be seen that the atmosphere at the post is already extremely tense, and there are soldiers running everywhere. Through the buildings, the metal walls of the outposts can be seen rising, and there are many defensive posts on the ten-meter-high walls.
Chen Yan walked along the passage and reached the top of the wall after passing three inspections. He was received by an officer of a garrison.
"Mr. Chen Yan, you can observe each other here."
Behind the officer was a sophisticated instrument with blue pulsations of energy flowing from it.
"It's ......"
"Thinking Wave Observation Device. It is possible to monitor the whereabouts of demons from a distance. You can also extract specific images. The officer introduced. But it is possible to be detected by demons and cause hostility. ”
"Let me see." Chen Yan was very interested in this pair of demons, so he stepped forward.
Several staff members came over and connected various pipelines for Chen Yan. The Thinksense Wave Observation Device is not an ordinary visual telescope, but an instrument for long-distance exploration with the help of Thought. It is like a kind of amplifier, which multiplies and emits the user's thoughts, thus forming ultra-long-distance 'remote sensing'. The user will feel like a dream, looking at the target from God's point of view.
During this process, the user is unable to move and is in a semi-sleepy state.
Soon, the various pipelines had been connected, and a staff member attached a chip to the back of Chen Yan's neck, and then inserted a long probe into it. Chen Yan only felt a shock all over his body, and his spirit suddenly expanded to unimaginable heights. He felt as if he had lost his body, turning into an ethereal cloud and flying off into the distance.
Over mountains and jungles, deserts and plains. He quickly saw the goal.
It was a team of demons with a large number of complex ingredients. Mostly hundreds of five-meter-tall trollaths, moving slowly like hills, with their heavy carapace and highly corrosive acid vents, would be a terrible nightmare for any human outpost. It is difficult for human firearms to pose a threat to them, and even large-caliber howitzers are difficult to kill them. The only ones that can effectively deal damage to it are heavy armor-piercing bullets and Witcher-like devices.
When the town of Hakim was breached, it was mainly because of the appearance of these giant demons, and at that time there were only a few.
There were hundreds of them, and Chen Yan finally knew why the outpost was like a great enemy. Such a terrible enemy, even if it is just a transit, is enough to cause unease in any power. And if it becomes their enemy......
Chen Yan couldn't imagine it.
However, although the Giant Armor Demon is terrifying, its energy level is not high, and it is nothing compared to several other demons. Chen Yan saw that there were several strange-looking demons in the convoy, and the most alarming of them were two old women in tattered clothes. They sat in one of the largest grotesque vehicles in the middle, with long hair and heads over their faces. It exudes an eerie and icy aura.
The Sigan observations were transferred from a database connected to the Demon Hunters, and Chen Yan quickly obtained their information.
"Snatcher." (Note: Datsueba, an old woman in Japanese mythology who stood guard on the other side of the Santu River, took the clothes of the deceased and hung them on a tree, and the weight of the clothes can be seen in the sins of the deceased.) )
"Energy level 15, weak demon median, semi-material form, physical attack halved."
"What a great guy." Chen Yan's heart was dark, although he had fought against the Troll Overseers, it was clear that the other party was not the same type as the current demon. In the middle of the same weak demon, the threat to him was much stronger than that of the Troll Overseers, and at the very least, that semi-material form was enough to make Chen Yan tricky.
What's more, the most famous thing about the Cloth-Snatcher is that she is good at mental attacks, and she may even make the enemy die instantly.
However, the two robbers were not the main figures in the convoy, they were on either side of the car, apparently guarding something. However, Chen Yan could not see through the heavy shell of the vehicle and observe the scene inside.
Just as he was about to forcibly infiltrate, suddenly, Chen Yan saw that one of the two robbers seemed to sense something, and raised his head to take a look.
That gaze happened to collide with Chen Yan's thoughts, Chen Yan only felt as if a thunder sounded in his ears, and he snorted involuntarily, and when he woke up again, he had already broken away from his thoughts and returned to the wall.
"How?" Wei Li was wiping Chen Yan's temples with a towel. Seeing that he was sober, he immediately asked.
"It's not good. I was discovered. Chen Yan rubbed his eyebrows and stood up from the observation device. They are dangerous, and I want to defend them with my current outpost, which I can't defend for seven hours. ”
"What then?" The garrison officer next to him asked, looking anxious.
"I can only hope that their goal is not here." Chen Yan shrugged his shoulders and replied with a relaxed face.
But before he could speak, a rapid alarm came again in the distance. "Enemy attack! The Entry Demon has branched out and is approaching our outpost at great speed! All sentry posts are in place and ready for the invasion!! ”
Chen Yan and Wei Li glanced at each other and both shrugged their shoulders.
"My lord, did anyone say you have a special ability?"
"What?"
"Raven's Curse."
"You just said it was a crow's mouth."
