Chapter 454: Ambush

The day after they broke out of the city, Leach and his party encountered their first ambush.

In order to distance themselves from the pursuers of the Huya Gang as much as possible, they had been on the road for a whole day, and finally because they saw that Ti Xinlier and Catherine were really unable to walk, Leach decided to stop and rest for a while.

What they saw and heard along the way gave everyone a more intuitive understanding of how barren the land of Guna City was, if it weren't for the occasional few poplars and other plants standing tenaciously in the cracked yellow earth, plus there was no yellow sand flying in the sky, Leach would even think that he had entered the desert.

Because there was little vegetation in the wild, there was no trace of human habitation except near the Guna River valley, and Leach searched for a long time before finding a small place to settle down in the remains of a house that had been abandoned for an unknown amount of time.

With the wild environment of Guna City, there are basically only a few places where people can rest for a while, so the place where Leach and his party chose to settle down has many traces of a burning bonfire, and there are some remains of unknown animals and some broken wine bottles piled up in the corner.

A bonfire was lit with a nearby broken door panel and other objects as fuel, and the group hastily filled their stomachs and slept in a corner.

Due to the exertion and the fact that he didn't run into anyone along the way, Leach didn't check his surroundings too closely, and it was this little negligence that caused them to be almost buried alive.

Here's the thing, when the group was sleeping soundly, among the loess under the ruins that had been hastily inspected by Leach, a secret door suddenly appeared, and a dozen black figures crawled out of it.

Under the moonlight, the black shadow carefully surrounded the dilapidated house where Leach and the others were resting, and then several of them took out a boxy package and buried it under the few remaining load-bearing walls of the dilapidated house.

After a few flickering fires, the air was filled with a faint pungent smell of burning gunpowder, and the black shadow took out the explosives used to open the mountain.

Due to the careful movements of the black shadows, coupled with the fact that there are walls to block the sound, in the broken house, Leach and the others are not aware of the danger that is coming.

Seeing that the black shadow ignited the explosives and quickly fled to a hidden place, quietly waiting for the moment when the explosives exploded, the black blade that was placed by Leach's side suddenly let out a clear "poof" sound and unsheathed itself.

Under the bewildered gaze of the awakened Leach, the black blade turned into a black lightning bolt and rushed out of the room, followed by several almost inaudible sounds of something being cut from outside the house, and after a while, the black blade returned to its sheath as if nothing had happened.

It was only by this time that Leach regained consciousness from his dazed state, and then he smelled the smell of burning gunpowder in the air, and immediately realized that someone was trying to deal with them.

In order not to startle the snake, Leach woke up his companions one by one as carefully as possible, and explained the situation to them, and then everyone continued to pretend to be asleep, waiting for the uninvited guests to fall into the net.

Outside the broken house, the black shadows waited for a long time without hearing the loud bang, and out of curiosity, they cautiously leaned towards the broken house.

Upon examination, the Shadows found that the fuse of the explosives had been completely burned out, but they had not ignited the explosives, which could have been explained as a coincidence, if it was just one, but this was the case with all the buried explosives, and the only explanation was that someone was in the way.

When they were hesitating whether to retreat, Leach and the others in the house had already heard the sound of the black shadows approaching, and immediately rushed out.

Although he couldn't confirm it with his own eyes, Leach was basically sure that the other party was trying to use explosives to collapse the broken house, and the rest of them were okay to say, but if they really wanted the other party to succeed in their tricks, Lina, Ti Xinlier and Catherine must be more than lucky, and when they thought of the terrible consequences, Leach had a chilling feeling, so he went all out as soon as he made a move.

Under the moonlight, the light blue sword qi was even more hidden, and before the black shadow could react, four blood-red flowers bloomed, and all of them were injured to the point without exception, and they never got up again after falling down screaming.

Leach was followed by Saya's arrows.

In order to take her surprise, she did not use her fighting spirit as usual, but took out a few arrows from her quiver that were specially enchanted with sharp arts, and shot them out with only the tension of the bowstring itself.

Although both the flight speed and strength have dropped a lot, the effect is remarkable, and there are as many as five black shadows who have been shot in the head by arrows and fallen.

Just the attack of Leach and Saya caused most of the number of Black Shadows to lose most of them, and when the remaining Black Shadows finally realized that they were no match for Leach and the others, and wanted to evacuate, Tali, who had outflanked them from the other side, had cut off their retreat.

The fate of the black shadow targeted by Tali is even more miserable, basically there is not even a whole corpse left, but fortunately, with the cover of night, it will not make people feel disgusting.

After killing all the dark shadows in ambush, Leach stepped forward to check who they were.

"This is ......" I thought that the other party was acting secretly, and he would definitely not be found out so easily, but he didn't think about it, Leach found what he wanted from the first corpse examined.

"It's the token of the Huya Gang. Glancing at the evidence in Leach's hand, Mr. K immediately made a judgment, "This group of people is from the Huya Gang." ”

Hearing this, Leach couldn't help but spit viciously: "I didn't expect to come so quickly, I'm afraid it's not safe here, we have to leave here immediately!"

Mr. K had the same idea, and seeing that Leach was the first to mention it, it saved him more trouble.

Under the cover of night, the group continued to rush to the northwest.

Because they didn't have a good rest at all, when the sun was rising, Tibriel and Catherine showed their fatigue again.

"It would be nice to take a few horses with you when you leave the city of Gunna. Leach sighed.

If it hadn't happened that Tali beat Eddes to the point of not knowing whether he was alive or dead, according to everyone's original plan, they wanted to buy horses in Guna City to hurry, after all, Mr. K was also relatively familiar with this place, and knew that it was too fantastic to travel on only two legs when there were basically no supplies along the road.
