Chapter 265: Rampage
Calderón was the captain of this squadron.
More than 10 days earlier, he had received an order to assassinate Brigadier General Vega, who was about to serve as the Empire's Seventh Army, and induced him to take the order because the reward was a regimental position that he would not be able to achieve in his lifetime.
Opportunities and risks coexist.
He had expected the mission to be quite difficult.
But what he didn't expect was that the target seemed to be just a child, although the information showed that it was a child who made a shadow mage, but they were well-trained, and with a tacit professional squadron, it was easy to take down a shadow mage.
As for the guards around the target?
Calderon didn't think that an ordinary person could make any waves, and an ordinary person like this could fight a hundred with the strength of his subordinate professionals.
The mission is progressing very well.
He heard through a special channel that the target person would board Flight 3 from the imperial capital to Shelantu City on September 11, so he led his troops to board the airship easily, and the people of the airship law enforcement team did not even dare to check his ticket.
After boarding the airship, it took him only one day to think about how to hunt a stealthy prey.
That is, to force the prey into a corner where it is difficult to move, so that the other party has nowhere to escape, and they even prepare white and lime powder, and sprinkle it into the corner when the time comes, unless the other party is a ghost in myths and legends, otherwise the prototype will appear on the spot.
This wasn't the first time they'd hunted a shadow mage.
In Calderon's opinion, killing a shadow mage is far easier than killing an elemental mage, because a shadow mage without group attack magic is just a powerful professional, just with a mage's shield and various weird buffs.
As long as such a magician is not given room to play, how can he beat a squadron of professionals?
The single room on the airship was a natural trap, and they didn't even have to have a few professionals act as bait to lure their prey into the trap they had set up.
But the operation was not entirely without difficulties.
No matter how you say that the other party is also an imperial brigadier general, and the death of a general on the territory of the empire is enough for the imperial military department to order a thorough investigation to the end. Therefore, after killing Vega, how to escape safely, and how to ensure that he is not caught by the investigation team of the imperial military after escaping the scene has become a problem that needs to be overcome.
Therefore, Calderón did not choose to optimize the offensive plan, but put a lot of hard work into the retreat plan.
The first attack was carried out 12 hours before the airship landed, and the people of the flight enforcement team were used to obscure the flight law enforcement team before the attack, and the law enforcement team professionals who had magical powers to be immune to drugs were directly killed, ensuring that no one interfered during the implementation of the plan, and at the same time, the flight almost landed after the plan was completed, and they had enough time to leave the scene.
Therefore, they deliberately put on military uniforms.
In order to refuse to accept the interrogation and detention of ground law enforcement forces after landing, and leave the scene as soon as possible.
As long as you leave the scene, the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high and the birds fly.
This series of plans, Calderon even took into account the expiration date of the drug exactly one hour after the airship landed, which can be said to be foolproof, and there is no need to worry about the once exposed face, the current appearance is just a disguise of magic props.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
Now he only needs to wait for the prey's magic or mental power to run out, he can directly kill the opponent, and then easily carry out the next retreat plan, and he has even begun to fantasize about the day when he will become a regimental officer.
But just then, a loud bang was heard.
Boom –
A terrifying wave of air swept through the hallway, causing Calderon, who was standing in the hallway, to eat a stomach.
"Damn, what's going on?"
Calderon cursed angrily and pushed through the crowd, and through the chaos of the scene, several figures could be faintly seen.
Who are these figures?
Calderon looked at it, he found that the figures were all his men, but he didn't see the mission goal this time, what the hell is going on, could it be that the prey has broken through the blockade?
Calderon has experienced a hundred battles, especially against shadow mages and combat experience, so when he found something wrong, he subconsciously threw a handful of white lime powder forward.
"Ahem, ahem—"
A series of coughing sounds, and Vega, who was exhaled by lime powder, retreated violently.
He didn't expect that this professional squadron still had two brushes, and he had already started the trickery style when he was able to react and break through the blockade at the first time, and the stealth effect of the trickery style really can't ignore the volume collision, and it is inevitable that the body will be exposed as soon as it is touched by lime powder.
But the exposure is also exposed, and Vega doesn't care.
To be honest, Wei was just taken aback by the super buff of the power of the giant beast, and he hit the enemy's abdomen with a fist, although it was not as exaggerated as the butler Falk even penetrated his body directly, but it did shatter the enemy's internal organs, and due to the huge inertia, he directly made the opponent fly upside down, smashing the blockade defense.
This terrible power......
That's right, the current Vega has the urge to tear the gates with their bare hands.
However, there is no city gate to tear here, so Vega decides to perform a tearing pro.
On top of that, Vega found that the power of the Behemoth was very mana-saving, and with the current mana, it could last for about 20 minutes, while there were less than 20 enemies left, so one minute was enough.
Kill on.
Vega is wearing a mage's shield, and it doesn't matter what moves are or not, like a humanoid self-propelled armored car, rampage all the way, killing one by one, and killing one by two.
As for the enemy's combo defense?
Vega gave up his fists, picked up his short knife, and slashed him in half, even with his sword, making any combined defense a joke.
One trades off the other.
Vega's side slaughtered, and the enemy's morale naturally fell to the freezing point, and at this moment, no one stepped forward to continue to challenge Vega, and the messy aisle fell into silence.
"Don't panic, everyone, his magic power is probably running out. ”
Calderon saw that the situation was not good, and yelled to boost morale, and then the pros regained their courage and rushed towards Vega, but Calderon quietly retreated when everyone was not looking, and did the trick of betraying his teammates.
Originally, Vega was just testing the strength and consumption of the power of the giant beast, but seeing that Calderon was actually about to escape, he didn't delay at the moment, and he used the second mid-level combat skill, Hurricane Speed.
Whoa—
Vega only felt that his body was light, and he actually moved dozens of meters with one step, which was not the same as the direct increase in the usual magic power, about 10 times faster, and this was still the speed of a broken version of a hurricane.
The power of a behemoth plus the speed of a hurricane.
Vega completely transformed into a humanoid tyrannosaurus, and although the consumption of mana was twice as fast, the speed of killing was more than three times faster, so in just a few minutes, Vega emptied all enemies except Calderon and chased after Calderon.
Chase to the deck.
Vega discovers that Calderón has an umbrella bag on his back and seems ready to jump straight off the airship.
Since the airship was about to arrive in Sherantu City, it had begun to descend early, so it was indeed safe to land at this altitude with a parachute bag, but Vega would not give him this opportunity.
One step out, the soles of the feet are windy.
Calderon's eyes flickered, and he saw Vega floating like a phantom, instantly coming to him from dozens of meters away.
"Don't underestimate me, little ghost!"
Calderon drew out a cold cross-sword, his eyes did not exude a look of desperation, and his tone was full of confidence: "There are so many shadow mages killed by labor and management that I can't even count myself, just a level 3 shadow, hum!"
Boom –
Vega's sword blessed with the power of the giant beast slammed into Calderon's sword, and the tooth-aching sound of iron intersecting seemed to tear even the air, and a huge wave of qi turned into a wind that swept in all directions.
After 3 seconds.
Vega took 5 steps back and Calderón 1 step back.
Click-
At the same time, Vega's short knife cracked, then broke off from the middle, and the tiger's mouth in his right hand was already oozing blood.
"Mid-tier magic weapons. ”
Vega's voice gritted his teeth echoed.
