Forty-Seven - The glass sword that has lost its shield

"Purgatory Demon Wolf damn it, how can there be an S-class calamity beast here?!"

S-class Calamity, what is that concept?

That is, with a strength that is almost equal to the level of the Admiral, and sometimes even surpasses the Admiral's level, ordinary members of the Thirteenth Fleet can only flee when they encounter it, and even a small team composed of several core members may not be able to win the victory even if they are besieged by hand.

Less than two minutes had passed since the battle began, but he had already fallen into a state of having to flee for his life.

In a corner of the woods, Kaga and Zuizuru, who were carrying longbows, ran through the forest one after the other. Behind them, more than twenty calamity beasts were desperately pursuing, all looking like they were afraid that the food (humans) in front of them would run away, but as for Akagi, Ai Weier and the others, they were already gone.

"Kaga-senpai just now"

"Shut up! It's better to follow closely when you have time to talk! I can't save you if you are left alone in this situation!"

The heart is irritable, and there is no leisure to comfort the anxious juniors.

The Infernal Wolf didn't chase it, or the only good news

However, the thought that the nightmarish creature might still be by Akagi and the others at the moment immediately felt like pins and needles.

As soon as Kaga raised his hand, four "sharp arrows" were shot, two of which hit the forehead of the jumping insect and killed him instantly, and one shot the body of the "Hou Tuza wolf", although the arrow was inserted in the body, the B-Rank calamity beast did not say a word, as if it was not damaged at all, and continued to chase the prey in front of it as if it was not damaged at all, and finally the arrow grazed the head of the other jumping insect, only scratching a mark on the scale armor of its head, but it did not cause any damage.

"After all, there are many uncertainties in the battle. For example, if you suddenly encounter an accident while searching, and the team is accidentally separated, etc. At this time, the safety of the long-range troops is completely based on themselves, and at least they must take care of themselves. ”

Ji Yuehua's comments a few days ago echoed in her heart over and over again, like a bone appendage. Silently glancing at the calamity beasts chasing behind him, he stepped under his feet, and with a wave of his hand, another arrow shot out of the air, but it was only an extra arrow inserted into the body of one of the "post-herald wolves", which was still not a fatal injury.

In the midst of this brief delay, the calamity beasts and Kaga were closer again, and when Kaga ran again, they were already walking side by side with Zuizuru.

Terrible situation

Very bad situation!!

Just now, because of the surprise attack of the S-class calamity beast Purgatory Demon Wolf, the two of them had to distance themselves from the home team. After that, in the face of the flood of calamity beasts, the home team was completely isolated from them.

Losing the cover of the melee personnel, although they knew that it was not good, they could never be spared if they stood in place, and the two fought and retreated, and before they knew it, they were far away from the position where they were separated from Akagi and others. On the way, aside from the unaccustomed shooting arrows while running, Zuizuru does not count, get on the arrow, turn around, let go, continue to run, and continue this cycle, Kaga has already shot more than ten low-level calamity beasts.

Even with the enhancement of the "Divine Stigmata", the physical strength of human beings cannot be compared to that of the Calamity Beast

If it weren't for the reminder from Ji Yuehua before, who had been practicing the skill of quickly getting on the arrow in private for the past ten days, and shot the other party every time the enemy was about to catch up, I am afraid that the two people who were not good at melee combat would have died at the hands of a group of calamity beasts with extremely fast mobility.

However, Kaga's impressive number of kills is only a drop in the bucket for the current situation.

I have always been accustomed to standing behind the strong men in close combat, letting them resist the wind and rain for themselves At this moment, to take into account escape and counterattack, and to be able to put aside the eight-section program archery of archery, that is already the limit of Kaga.

The scum, like the "Hou Tuza Wolf", a medium-to-high calamity beast with a thick shell all over its body, has to shoot three or four arrows at the vital point to kill it.

But how can a person turn around leisurely and slowly release arrows in the midst of a wild run?

More than ten days of training have never been able to bring about leaps and bounds, and the inertial movements with stepping as the switch have not been changed. Unable to enter the "Mindless Mind" at the moment of turning back, the limited number of arrows fired, and the lack of time to aim carefully, etc., it became a fool's dream to successfully reduce the number of pursuers.

"Haha"

I can't remember how many minutes I've been running. Mental and physical strength are constantly being consumed, and beads of sweat the size of beans slide down the corners of the forehead, although it has not yet reached the point of weakness, but it is also an indisputable fact that the feeling of fatigue gradually comes from the feet

It's only a matter of time before you get caught up, and it's not a way to run like this, and it's even more unrealistic to expect reinforcements to come, and you have to find a suitable time to fight back, and then go back to join Akagi and the others.

"Did Zuihe hear me?"

"I'm listening!!"

"Very good, let me hear clearly, settle your mind, adjust your breathing, I want you to enter the "mindless mind"."

"How is that possible?! It's not that you don't know that I haven't really practiced yet, even if I'm standing."

"Less nonsense! I'm not asking you to do it, I'm asking you to do it!" The awe-inspiring voice was as majestic as ever. Taking a deep breath, a hint of fierceness flashed in Kaga's eyes, "It's time to start fighting back!" Then I'll count one, two, three, and turn around and clear them all together!"

"You're open!!"

"One!"

"Listen to people!!"

"Two!"

"Ahhh!!h I don't care! I just do it!!"

"Three!!"

"(cf. above) on the !!"

"Shoot!! Shoot down all the enemies in the air first!!"

"Stop them from going on deck!! Kick them down before they have time to kill! The firepower output is in the hands of ranged troops!"

On the deck, the whining of insects, the roar of the Calambula, the shouts of the members of the Seventh Fleet, the clashing of blades against metal, all kinds of sounds were endless, almost like a large symphony, of course, more bloody and violent.

Over there, the melee fighters led by Tatsuda were already fighting the incoming calamity at the edge of the deck.

Amputated limbs, sometimes even half of their heads were lost one after another xenomorph creatures climbed onto the deck, some flew out with only half of their bodies left, and some of them may have forced a step back from the members of the Seventh Fleet, and then they were cut in two by other fleet members!

This time, Ling Chujing didn't even sit idly by for a moment.

The black dots in the sky were shot down one by one, and the flying insects that were shot by long-range attacks were basically either an ice blade flying over at the moment of flying down, or they were directly cut into more than a dozen pieces, and with Ling Chujing's assistance, only dozens of D-Rank flying insects were quickly swept away.

However, the real pressure is only now that we need to face it

The low-level cannon fodder troops did not bring damage to the Seventh Fleet, but they would consume a certain degree of physical strength of everyone, and under the cover of the cannon fodder troops, the main force of the Calamity Beast was gradually approaching. That's a legion of Scourge beasts that are also B-Rank at the very least.

There are at least a dozen calamity beasts in A-Rank, and there are countless calamity beasts in B-Rank, such as armored spiders and red-winged fangs and other familiar faces appear in it, although there are no higher-level S-Rank powerhouses among them, but for the Seventh Fleet, which is scattered and weakened by more than 30% of its strength, it is still enough to make them fall into a bitter battle, and even suffer heavy casualties.

"Miss Feng Xiang is standing behind me."

Ling Chujing's blade did not stop from the very beginning, as for Ji Yuehua's side, after pulling Feng Xiang behind him, a silver-colored metal bow suddenly appeared in his hand.

I really didn't expect that the gift that Bayi Yonglin gave to me would come in handy so quickly.

Such a thought flashed in his heart, holding the bow in his left hand, Ji Yuehua's right hand was already clasped with four "sharp arrows", and in the next moment, four arrows were fired in volley, each of which shot into the heads of the four ant beasts.
