Chapter 76: There are pursuers behind
After the melee battle began, about 1,000 blue-black trench ronins surrounded them, while there were only more than 400 berserkers on Tianxuan's side, and what was even worse was that these trench ronins wore armor on their elbows, knees, and heads, which were so hard that they could directly block the cutting of the light blade.
This is even more disadvantageous for the berserker, who is not superior in numbers.
Whenever these blue-black trench ronins rushed over, the berserkers immediately formed a formation, wielding electric whips in the front row and stabbing light blades in the back. This tactic was quite effective at first, and in the not spacious space, it was still difficult for the trench ronin to get close, and when he approached in time, he basically fell under the light blade stabbed in the back row in an instant.
However, after the battle lasted for a while, Tianxuan found that the trench ronins seemed to have gradually changed their combat methods, no longer rushing up desperately to fight hand-to-hand like before, but using their speed to keep swimming in front of the berserker. Whenever he approached, the trench ronin symbolically fended off the attack of the blade or electric whip with his elbow or knee, and then quickly retracted his body.
"They are consuming our physical strength, everyone fight and retreat, don't fight hard!" Tengen, who had seen through the trench ronin's scheme, shouted loudly to the berserkers fighting in front.
After receiving Tianxuan's reminder, everyone began to shrink their formation and slowly retreated. And at this time, the attack of the trench ronin stopped.
"Looks like they're running out of options!" When Tianxuan saw that the trench ronin stopped attacking, he remained still, thinking that he had seen through their plan and could retreat safely. However, his thinking was very wrong.
A few minutes later, the Trench Ronin regrouped and took up a stance, looking like they were going to make a new charge.
"The whole army stopped, set up a formation, and greeted the charge!" Hercules commanded loudly.
Then, the Trench Ronin began to charge, but this time it was different. I saw that after the first batch of trench ronins collided, they paused slightly, then bounced sideways, and then the second group of charges followed and collided, and so on.
But every time the group charged, the trench ronins paused for a few seconds, which made Tianxuan feel puzzled.
So, he quickly frowned and scanned the surroundings, trying to find out what kind of conspiracy the trench ronin was planning. But the battle lasted for more than ten minutes, and he could see any clues.
For safety, Tianxuan hurriedly evacuated the non-combatants and left the hedgehog tree area. At first, the evacuation went smoothly, but when it was halfway through, Tianxuan suddenly noticed that the elbows, knees, and head armor of the trench ronin at the opposite assembly place seemed to be shining.
Tianxuan's eyes suddenly widened, feeling that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted to Hercules: "Hercules, pay attention!" The armor part of the trench ronin seemed to be glittering, be careful. β
Hercules was fighting fiercely ahead, and after hearing Tianxuan's warning, he was also alert. It's a pity that it was too late. After this round of impact, the trench ronin blocked the light blade with his elbow, and instead of bounce off quickly, he stayed for a few more seconds.
After a few seconds, a sly smile appeared on the corner of the trench ronin's mouth, and then it quickly bounced away, and then the trench ronin stopped charging. At this time, the berserker who was standing at the forefront thought that the enemy had given up the attack and was about to take a breath of relief, when he suddenly found several square transparent boxes on the ground.
Hercules looked closely and saw that the square boxes were vibrating, and the pink substance in the center of the box had expanded to nearly the size of a heart.
Seeing this, Hercules reacted suddenly, and hurriedly shouted to the berserkers in front: "The front team retreats quickly, be careful to avoid the inflatable cannon!" Just a few seconds after he finished speaking, a pink heart-like substance popped out of the inside of the square box.
Fortunately, the reaction was timely, and everyone hurriedly made room for the red gas to come out, and as a result, the impact of the inflatable cannon all hit the hedgehog tree, and even hit a few, which added convenience to Tianxuan's retreat.
After dodging the impact of the inflatable cannon, everyone hurriedly got up. However, at this time, the trench ronin launched a new round of charge.
"Pong! Table tennis! "The trench ronin slammed into the Berserker in front of him.
The momentum sent the berserkers back a few meters, but that wasn't the end of it, as the trench ronin after the previous charge quickly turned away, and the trench ronin that followed up slammed into the air with all the berserkers who had not been able to stand up before.
Then, tragedy struck, and the berserkers who had been knocked into the air were directly knocked into the hedgehog tree, and due to the reaction force, they were all pierced by the spikes and firmly nailed to the trunk. The berserkers then struggled in pain for a few moments before their hands hung down and they lost consciousness.
"Fix your body and meet the enemy in a half-squat!" Hercules hurriedly gave orders to his troops to deal with the sudden change in the tide of battle.
"Brothers, hold on a little longer, and we'll be able to evacuate." Tianxuan cheered everyone up loudly.
Although they were in a desperate situation, fortunately, the berserkers' will to fight was still very strong, and they did not decrease sharply at all, and they always maintained a battle formation. As a result, the Trench Ronin's repeated charges did not yield effective results.
After a few moments, Hercules contracted his formation and exited the hedgehog tree area after Tianxuan. And the trench ronin is in hot pursuit. However, when these aliens chased them out, they suddenly stopped and hurriedly tried to turn around and run away.
Why is that? It turned out that Tianxuan had already ambushed a large wave of inflatable cannons on the road to be passed, which was called a tooth for a tooth.
The dozens of blue-black trench ronins who rushed to the front obviously didn't have time to retreat, and were steadily hit by the pink gas emitted by the inflatable cannon, and then, without any suspense, they were washed up on the hedgehog trees on both sides, and were firmly nailed to them, and then hung up!
After being sniped, Ugoda suspended the pursuit of his troops in case of fraud. This just won precious time for Tianxuan and them, because at this time they were crossing the dangerous bomb tree area, if they came like this time when they had just entered the Heidan region before, it was estimated that they would be wiped out, but this time because of Ugoda's hesitation, they were lucky.
After reconnoitring the enemy, Ugoda received information that Tianxuan and the others had crossed the bomb tree area, and immediately regretted their hesitation. At this time, he was like thunder, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and shouted angrily: "Tianxuan, if I can't capture you alive, I will not be a man!" β
After scolding, Ugoda immediately ordered everyone to hurry after them, and be sure to stop them on the banks of the River Styx. At the same time, Ugoda sent a telegram ordering about 2,000 guerrilla troops from all walks of life around him to quickly rush to the target location to encircle Tianxuan and them.
At this time, Tianxuan, who was hurrying away, said to Hercules next to him: "I guess Ugoda will definitely be mad." Later, the pursuers will definitely pounce on them frantically. β
"Fortunately, we have broken through the bomb tree area, and even if we fight after that, we don't have too many worries, so we can give it a go!" Hercules puffed his chest and said confidently.
"Not necessarily." Tianxuan shook his head as he walked quickly, and said, "The trench ronins are already faster than us, and now these are mutants, if we send another unit to our rear, it will be over with a front and back attack." β
After listening to Tianxuan's analysis, Hercules glared at him, and suddenly understood: "Then do you have any way?" β
Tianxuan didn't say a word, just shook his head slightly......
Soon, Tianxuan led everyone to the flower area close to the shore, and after traveling some distance, he suddenly realized that he had been here.
Because there was a group of decomposing corpses lying on the ground in front of them, and the hearts of the corpses were blooming with umbrella-shaped red flowers.
"Flowers on the other side!" Tianxuan pressed his cheeks with his hands and exclaimed.
"The other side of the flower?" Hercules asked.
"Yes!" Tianxuan's footsteps stopped when he said this, and everyone also stopped.
"What's going on?" Hercules asked, puzzled.
"We've got to take a detour! You can't go straight from here. Tianxuan said as he opened the PokΓ©mon Illustrated Book and brought up the image of the flower on the other side. Hercules then dialed the text into Mayan and quickly skimmed through the instructions for the flowers.
"Oh my God! This thing will walk up and kill people on its own! Everyone was also shocked when they saw the introduction of the flower on the other side.
Hercules straightened up and said, "Tianxuan, what can I do?" If we take a detour, we will definitely be trenched by the Trench Ronin, and the retreat route is much longer and farther from the retreating shore. If you are not careful, you may be outflanked by enemy forces from all sides. β
"But there's no way around it, right?" Tianxuan spread out his hands and said helplessly.
"No way! You lead everyone to retreat from the other way first! It's up to me to resist here. Hercules closed his eyes and took a breath, then said calmly.
Seeing Hercules' generosity and righteousness, Tianxuan's heart suddenly felt a warm current throughout his body, and he arched his hand to Hercules, and then withdrew from the other side with the non-combatants.
"Brothers, I can say for sure that while we can escape here with the three-dimensional agitation device, the non-combatants will be at the hands of the enemy. For the glory of the berserkers, even if we all die here, we must cover their safe evacuation. β
"For the glory of the Berserker, we are united and unstoppable! ......" shouted as the crowd raised their weapons.
Just when Hercules was about to fight to the death, Tianxuan, who was evacuating the crowd, kept recalling the scene when he first met the other side flower, thinking about it, suddenly he raised his head, his eyes lit up, and after handing over the escort task to Baili Jun, he immediately turned around and turned back to Hercules.
Just as Hercules and the berserker formed a formation, waiting for the trench ronin to arrive, Tianxuan suddenly appeared in front of him.
Hercules saw Tianxuan, looked at him, raised his eyebrows, and asked with wide eyes, "Why are you back again?" β
The corners of Tianxuan's mouth rose slightly, and he smiled and said, "Of course I have to come back, how can I leave you alone?" β
Seeing Tianxuan's very confident look, Hercules relaxed his tense nerves, straightened his body, and said with a smile: "It looks like you have a way!" β
"Yes!"
