"Click, click. Mobuck's metal boots trampled on the glass floor, and the monotonous footsteps echoed through the buildings, and the dead city seemed extremely empty.

The dwarves with their shields held high always walk in the first row, and for this team of shadows, the dwarf Mobuck is a bulwark that will never fall, and no force can break him.

Four green ghostly fires, floating in front of and behind the group, lit up the surroundings, and there was no doubt that they were Miridy's ghostly magic. It's not that Shur is reluctant to use the energy of the Crystal Lamp this time, but that the Ghost Light Technique can be freely controlled by Militty, which is far more flexible than the Crystal Lamp in her hand, and is the most suitable for exploration.

The halfling was not in the group, but hidden in the darkness, wandering in front of the group, both visually and audibly, it was as if he had disappeared, and there was no trace of him.

The darkness is a thief's close comrade-in-arms, a saying that has been passed down for thousands of years, and Macajelen, who hides alone in the dark, is probably far safer than his teammates in groups.

But is that really the case?

"North to west, two gates, due east, one window, be vigilant. ”

The biggest danger of exploring the interior of the city comes from the inside of the building. Enemies on the road can be seen at a glance, as well as enemies jumping from the top of buildings, but only those hiding inside buildings are the most annoying. Once they are ignored, they will suddenly attack from the inside as they pass through one door and one window, which is likely to cause huge problems for the team. Therefore, the most annoying thing for experienced mercenaries is the action in the city.

"Passed without a hitch. This is a reply from Saph at the end of the line.

"Keep paying attention, and then look away from thirty meters away. ”

"Yes. ”

"Mia, reconfirm the direction of the energy delivery line. ”

"Two hundred and thirty meters away, the fourth transit node, we are not wrong. ”

"Good, Miriday, life sense, make sure there are no living beings within a hundred meters. ”

"Confirmed, no anomalies. ”

The hearts of the Shadow Chaser team are very tight, although there will be no intelligent creatures in the otherworldly projection, and there is no abnormal reaction in the life perception, this does not mean that there must be no enemies around. There are too many things that can hide their traces, and Shuer can list at least a hundred, not to mention that any strange thing can happen in the otherworldly projection, and people who fully believe in their perception will often die very happily.

"It's too messy. Lin Jing, who was wandering back and forth, suddenly ran to Xiu'er's side, "Something is not right. ”

"Well, it's a mess. Shur also saw the problem, "It's like being ransacked, no, it's not looted, it should be said, it was deliberately destroyed." ”

The two were right, the first floor was chaos.

The doors and windows of the building were broken, pieces of broken glass and iron were scattered all over the ground, many strange vehicles that assisted in bouncing were discarded on the streets, all kinds of debris were scattered on the road, sometimes there was no place to put your feet, metal facilities with no apparent purpose on the side of the street were knocked down at will, often blocking the passages, and ......

"There's a lot of blood here. Shure stopped the group with a sudden wave of his hand, "And the shells of the thermal weapons." ”

Indeed, on the wall in front of Shuer, the blue blood had dried up and blackened, and it was covered with a layer on the ground, and a large number of bullet casings were sprinkled around, and there were bullet marks on the metal wall of the opposite building.

"It seems that there have been fierce battles here, and the casualties are not small. Pointing to a few similar marks around him, Shul frowned and said, "Who are these frogmen fighting against?"

"Captain, aren't you the enemies you were talking about?" the dwarf with the weight took the opportunity to rest for a while, "what's so strange about that?"

"No, it's not those things, the entrance above is intact, and the enemy hasn't come in. Shure shook his head, "This battle broke out from within, or rather...... Is it a riot?"

"It's possible. Mia said thoughtfully, "Trapped here for too long, the frogs are starting to kill each other?"

"It's impossible to judge, but there's one biggest question. Miridy looked between several battlefields, "Didn't you notice that something was missing here?"

"Well, there are no corpses. Shure drew a circle on his chest with his fingers, strengthening his magic of perceiving hostility to the limit.

"Yes, there is not a single corpse, a human, an animal, no corpse. ”

Since the streets are in such a mess, it means that neither side of the battle has the energy or time to clean up the battlefield, or even to recover weapons. Since the situation is so urgent, no one should have the heart to dispose of the corpses, and they are so clean that there is not a single corpse left.

"Tsk, it's not the corpse that took it away. The necromancer had no scruples about talking about corpses, and he had the heart to laugh.

"Stop guessing and prioritize goals. Shure pointed ahead and gestured to continue, "Anyway, turn on the lights first, the darkness is not good for us in an unfamiliar environment, Macageren." ”

"I'm here. In the shadows not far from the front of the group, the voice of the halfling appeared abruptly.

"You're ready...... Die!"

Shure's position was on the edge of the line, and just halfway through his order, a mutation suddenly occurred.

In the chaos of chaos around him, a black shadow sprang out without warning, as swift as a black lightning, and in an instant, it had already pounced behind him.

Seven powerful Gold-level combat professionals, seven experienced veteran mercenaries, but none of them discovered this raid in advance, and it wasn't until the attack had already begun that the faces of the most keenly sensed people changed.

The speed of the black shadow is too fast, and it arrives almost at the same time as the sound of breaking the air, not giving the attacked a chance to react, maybe those physics professionals who are fighting in close combat may still be able to deal with it in time, but any spell caster may not have time to react.

Except for Shure.

After more than ten years of penance in his hometown, countless fights from birth to death, and the accumulated combat experience finally showed his effect at this moment.

Leaning forward, muscles contracting, maybe a few millimeters before and after, but enough to change the outcome of the attack.

There was a cracking sound, the thick cloth robe was torn, and the attack of the black shadow almost rubbed against the skin of Shuer's back, and the wind it brought left a few shivers on the skin.

At the same time, the muscles of Shuer's arm were already bulging high, and the power of divine magic was blessed on his body, raising the hammer and swinging horizontally, the hard mace flashed with the white light of divine magic, and smashed firmly on the position of the black shadow's head.

"Bang", the dull thump of a thump, was as loud as an explosion in the silence of the city, and at the same time, there was a crisp sound of bones shattering.

The gold-level battle priest is amazingly powerful, and it is not surprising that he can smash the skull.

However, another thing is strange.

Obviously, the skull was smashed to pieces, but the black shadow that launched the attack was not affected at all, and with the power of the mace, he dragged his crumbling head, and disappeared into a building with only one jump.

It was only then that Saf's greatsword and Moria's spear landed beside Shure together. The two of them actually made the action at the same time as the attack, but they didn't complete it until the attacker left, so you can imagine how amazing the attacker's speed was.

"Stop, don't chase. "Before the others showed the action of pursuit, Shuer stopped it in advance, and the current environment is to rush to pursue is to kill yourself, and it is meaningless except to vent your anger.

"What is it?" The two mages glanced at each other, a cold sweat was already breaking out on their backs, fortunately the other party's target was Xiu'er, if it was replaced by the two of them, I am afraid that there would be no time to react.

"Formation contraction, dense defense, Macageren, you come back too. ”

The formation immediately changed with the order, and the distance was shortened to at least help each other.

"Miriday. ”

"I'm sure there is absolutely no such thing as life in the perception. ”

"Saf. Shure turned his gaze to another.

"I, I, I ......"

"I'm fine, don't be nervous, I don't blame you, just answer the question. "In the face of the female swordsman who is already a little confused, what you have to do is not to reprimand but to appease, so that you can get an answer as quickly as possible.

"I, I'm sure, no breathing, no heartbeat, no movement, absolutely none. ”

"Well, I believe, my perceived hostility is not forewarned. Shur squinted his eyes and said slowly, "It seems that this thing is definitely not a creature, is it an undead?"

"No kidding. The necromancer immediately denied, "If it's an undead, I can find it on the second floor, and it can't be an undead." ”

"What the hell is that?" Mia finally had a chance to ask the question in her mind, "I only saw a dark shadow, and I couldn't see anything clearly. ”

"A dog. The dwarf thought for a moment and added loudly, "At least it looks like a dog, damn it, my eyes were actually deceived by a dog, bastard ......"

"Shut up. Shul interrupted the dwarf's grumbling angrily, "I smashed its head. ”

"I saw yo. Moreya still looked heartless, but her body was close to Shuer's side, and on the hot fur, Shuer could feel Lin Jing's slight trembling, which was a tremor mixed with fear and anger.

"But it ran normally. Shur patted Lin Jing's body to reassure, "No creature can do that, Miriday. ”

"As I said, it's not the undead. ”

"Okay, I believe it. Shul nodded earnestly.

He really believed that there was no profession that could be more sensitive to the undead than a necromancer, and since Miridy twice denied the possibility that the other party was an undead, then this was the truth.

The question is, it's not a creature, it's not an undead, it's not breathing, it's not a heartbeat, what the hell is this?

Shure looked around, the shadows around him were silent, and no one was sure if there were more of these things hiding in the shadows, ready to jump out and attack.
