Chapter 504: Assassination
Han Shu anxiously rushed to the front, there were only ten hundred-person teams behind him, and the rush of a thousand-person scale was the limit of the night.
The army was stationed in the valley behind, and if more people were brought out at a time, it was likely to create a congestion at the exit from the valley, delaying a lot of time.
And now what Han Shu lacks most is time!
"You must hold on!" Han Shu's eyes were fixed on the front, as an eighth-order martial artist, the night could not block his vision, so he became more and more anxious.
Because he clearly saw that Gavin and other high-level martial artists had fallen into the encirclement of the enemy, and there was a steady stream of enemies pouring out of the fortress in front of him.
These people simply want to take this opportunity to swallow their own vanguard army in one bite!
Han Shu recognized this thought in his heart, and became more and more anxious emotionally, but he could only force himself to calm down.
Compared with Gavin, Han Shu's personality is much more cautious, and at the same time, he also understands his shortcomings, that is, compared with the teacher, he still lacks a lot of experience.
For example, in the previous spectator battle, the enemy sent such a giant monster, and almost everyone's mind was attracted by the monster itself, without considering the true intentions of the other party.
Only the teacher would take a strategic standpoint, considering that this monster might just be a trap, and a trap that you would almost certainly step on the first time you see it!
Han Shu thought that there was nothing wrong with Gavin's choice, even if it was his first time facing this kind of monster, he would make a similar decision.
At most, I will be a little more careful, so that when the front army and the Chinese army alternate, they can take into account the detection of the enemy's movements...... But the results won't make much difference either.
The other party deliberately hid behind the giant, and no one could find it at all, especially when there were only three or five hundred people.
But it is such an elite team of three or five hundred people, which has caused great trouble to Gavin and others.
Han Shu could clearly see that almost all of those people were not weak, at least at the level between the middle and high ranks, and many of them had already reached the level of seven or eight ranks.
And the cooperation of these people is very tacit, obviously veterans of a hundred battles, and every step is rapidly compressing the scope of activities of Gavin's people.
What's even worse is that these people are like crazy, they are not afraid of death at all, and even if they are desperate, they will gnaw a piece of meat on the enemy.
Han Shu has seen a lot of elites in a hundred battles, but the elites who really dare to fight like this are actually rare in the world - because the people who keep doing this are already dead.
"Hurry up...... A little faster...... Caught up!"
Han Shu only felt as if the time had been stretched, and he rushed to the front line with an astonishing speed, and finally led the team into the battle before the situation deteriorated further.
This situation made Han Shu breathe a small sigh of relief, but he didn't realize it yet, because of such an urgent action, he was already at the forefront of the team.
This is somewhat dangerous for a normal march, and the main general is usually in a state of being in the middle army, that is, surrounded by the entire army, so as not to be attacked head-on.
Of course, the current rescue is to be carried out, Han Shu has a reason to rush to the scene as soon as possible, and he is actually not very far from the guards behind him, and no one will feel that such a position is much of a problem.
However, the problem often appeared inadvertently, a long sword floated from his side, pointing directly at Han Shu's throat.
Han Shu turned his head in surprise, only to see a girl in a black tightsuit, who had appeared here at some point, but her sword was silent, as if it was a weapon that did not belong to the world.
The girl is of course Ah Yue, she used the "flash" to appear next to Han Shu, and it has been a long time since she waited for this opportunity to send reinforcements, and she tried to kill her with one blow.
It is indeed not easy to master "One Flash", even a peerless genius like Ah Yue has only gradually mastered it in the recent past, and can use it skillfully in battle.
And Ellie, who is more stubborn in martial arts, is still at a loss for this magic skill, and she can't find a clue at all.
It has to be said that Ah Yue does have a natural acumen for combat, and she wanted to target Gavin at first, but quickly gave up this idea.
Because Gavin's strength is not weak, and he is in a state of high vigilance in battle, with her "flash" level, it is not an easy task to successfully kill in a sneak attack.
And Ah Yue judged that the other party would definitely have someone to come to the rescue, and his status would not be much lower than that of this vanguard general, but his strength might not be as strong as that of the pioneer.
This may just be an intuition, even Ah Yue herself doesn't have a very clear logical chain, but she just intuitively knew that it should be like this, so she succeeded.
Han Shu, whose own strength had not yet reached the ninth rank, had lost the personal protection of his personal guards in an anxious state, and there was no chance of surviving in the face of Ah Yue.
At such times, his talent for using soldiers is useless, and in the world of pure martial arts, only martial arts can save his life.
So Han Shu couldn't blame anyone, he could only blame himself for not being proficient in learning, he had even just raised his long knife, and the enemy's long sword had already pierced his throat.
The eruption of internal breath directly burst out a cloud of blood in his throat, and Han Shu's body slowly fell to the ground.
"Han Shu?!"
Of course, Gavin in front also noticed that someone was coming to help, or he knew that this would happen, so he would safely lead his personal guards to besiege the giant monster.
It is the task of the vanguard to detect the enemy's intelligence, but it does not mean that the main army will abandon the vanguard at will, once the vanguard is in distress, it will definitely be rescued, which is also the rule in the army.
But Gavin didn't expect that when Han Shu personally led the team to support, he would be directly assassinated by the enemy, and he had already fallen in a pool of blood in a blink of an eye!
Gavin couldn't care about the giant monster behind him anymore, and hurriedly rushed in the direction of Han Shu, but the Demon Legion would not give him this opportunity.
The demons who came to snipe Gavin and the others were all carefully selected Class A drivers, and many of them had their own strength at the level of the eighth rank.
Such a martial artist, even if he controls a demon who is slightly worse than the high-level, is actually not much weaker than himself, after all, they have the protection of magic armor.
In this case, Gavin could not easily kill these demons, even if he didn't care about himself and frantically tried to break out of the encirclement, he was still blocked by the demons again and again.
After a few times, Gavin had a lot of injuries on his body, and the demons around him did not decrease at all.
Because Gavin spared his life, but the demons did not spare their lives, and they wished that their enemies would die with them!
