The bodies of the officers and soldiers of the city guard were carried out of the dark and deep tunnels. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe bodies were temporarily placed in a makeshift camp at the entrance to the tunnel. Seeing his bloodied soldiers come out like this, covered with a white cloth, the Count of Vantaa almost crushed his back molars.

The total number of city guards who rushed into the hall reached one hundred and forty. Ninety-seven people were carried out of the tunnel. In addition, there are soldiers who have been burned to ashes in battles with giant fire elementals or whose bones have been destroyed by fire elemental self-explosions. Only fifteen soldiers were able to get out of the tunnel on their own.

The alchemists also suffered heavy casualties in that hall. At the beginning, a full-fledged alchemist with a mortal wound dies in the melee in the halls. Then, in the terrifying self-explosion of the giant fire elemental, the mage shields of two more low-level alchemists were exploded, and no corpses died in the explosion. Together with the seven apprentices and ten guards who died here, the Alchemists' Guild lost a total of twenty men in this hall. The terrible casualty rate of this fierce battle even made some alchemists fearful, and some low-level alchemists offered not to serve as alchemists accompanying the first assault team.

As for the losses of the Green Cross cultists, the city guards no longer have the energy to count. Large swaths of cultists lay on the floor of the hall, many of them trampled to inhuman shapes, and many left only charred and blackened remains.

In order to clean up the corpses, the alchemist even burned the entire hall with fiery oil. In order to combat the stench of burnt proteins, the alchemists even installed several high-powered magic energy blowers on the site to blow the smell deeper into the tunnel.

The stench was so strong that the Count of Vantaa had to make the decision to halt the attack for twelve hours. Taking advantage of the limited rest time, the Count of Vantaa hastened the dispatch of various alchemy weapons with additional elemental damage from the ground, and on the other hand, adjusted the personnel composition of each assault team to improve the combat ability of each team.

On the ground in Colombo, it's ten o'clock in the morning. The sun is shining, and everything is growing.

In the suite on the fourth floor of the Seawolf Hotel, Madoka is arguing with the agent of the Colombo real estate agency she contacted.

"The owner of the house has been seriously injured and is now unable to buy and sell?" Madoka looked at the agent of the Colombo real estate agency with a look of disbelief. "That's the reason!"

The salesman said with a bitter expression: "Now the owner of the house lives in the special care ward of the King General Hospital of Coronia. I can't get in touch with each other right now. You asked to see the house, and you can't do it now!" he explained to the girl in front of him with a very cute round face, "except for the one in the western suburbs, the other houses can be visited immediately. ”

"But we just wanted to see the house. Wearing a sky blue sleeveless dress, Xiaoyuan, who showed off the girl's slender figure, crossed her arms and looked at the salesman angrily. "It's obviously your promotional materials that say you can view the house at any time!"

"Don't be in a hurry. Sister Yuan. Aimilara took a round arm and handed the round-faced girl a string of roasted white-bellied lizard tails. A whole tail is pierced with a wooden skewer, grilled on a charcoal fire until the outside is tender, and then poured with sour and spicy seasonings. This is one of Amy's favorite snacks. In the past, her mother was always reluctant to buy her food, but now she can eat as much as she wants. "It's not too late for the two young ladies to come back and go to see the house!"

"God knows when the two young ladies will be back. Madoka sighed weakly. "They haven't been back for two nights. You and Jessica don't seem to be worried at all. ”

"You can rest easy. Jessica came in from outside with a large pile of delicious snacks of all kinds. "I can already guess where the two young ladies have been. I can guess why they didn't come back for two days. Speaking of this, Jessica's face suddenly became very strange. "Don't ask me for specific answers. What a ....... I don't know how to evaluate it. ”

"Since you say so, what are we going to do next?" Xiao Yuan puffed out her cheeks and watched as the irresponsible mother stuffed a large pile of food into Xiao Amy's arms.

"All right, my girl. Stop pouting. Jessica couldn't help but reach out and pinch her round fleshy little face. caused a protest from Madoka. "We went to Palazzo Valentino to find Fanny, to have a big meal and then to watch the game. ”

Little Amy's two cheeks, which had already eaten, were all bulging. She knew that Madoka was worried about Miss Sonya's safety. But in the eyes of this little girl, Sonia is simply a superhuman existence. She smiled and said to Madoka, "Don't worry, Sister Madoka." Miss Sophia can bring good luck. Her own luck must have been good. ”

Master Gad led his team of men and horses to slowly search through the winding underground caverns. Checking the map, he found himself leading his team to an unknown territory that had never been explored before.

Master Gade was taking notes on the map as quickly as he sent the scouts of the Warrior Guild out to investigate. He found himself inadvertently perhaps bypassing the cultists' defenses. Hour after hour of travel, he didn't even encounter a single figure except for the rare benthic creatures.

By this time, the entire team had emerged from the dark and narrow underground tunnel, and entered a wide, tall cavern. The average height of the entire cave is over 30 meters, and the width and length of the cave are unknown. This is because the ground in this cave is full of thick stalagmites that are the shortest and seven or eight meters high, which greatly obstructs people's view.

Ever since entering the cavern, Master Gad has been acutely aware of a path where the ground has been leveled. Following the path, it didn't take long to find a fork in the road, and a path extended from the intersection and disappeared into the darkness. This discovery shocked Master Gad's spirit. He thought he should have found an important transportation hub for the Green Cross cult.

Instead of choosing to turn onto the path at a fork in the road, Master Gad decided to follow the wider road.

After another twenty minutes or so, the scout who had gone out to scout gave him unexpected news.

"Master. The madman with the Green Cross on the other side came over. A small warrior emerged from the shadow of a stalagmite in front of him, and said to Master Gad in a low voice. "There were about fifty people. And two big guys. ”

"How far is it from us, and what is the big guy like?"

"Keep walking, we'll meet in half an hour. They're going in the opposite direction to us. The little scout then gestured, "Those two big guys are four meters tall, about the same width and height. By the way, in infrared vision, their colors are much brighter than those of ordinary cultists. ”

"All stopped. Master Gade immediately ordered the team to turn around and return to the fork in the road they had just passed. He called the leader of the Warrior Guild squad and the captain of the City Guard squad to explain the situation ahead and ask for their opinions.

"We should look for an opportunity to eliminate them. "The Captain of the City Guard is a typical junior officer, brave and eager to make a mark in battle.

"Cultists in general are not a problem. But there were two robed guys in that group that gave me a bad feeling, and two huge golems, and we probably couldn't eat them all at once. "The leader of the Warrior Guild squad was one of the first people to see those cultists with his own eyes, and both the visual impact of the tall golems and the looming threat brought by the high-ranking cultists made him feel a little dangerous. "We might as well conduct an ambush. He pointed to the tall stalagmites, "Master, if you can let these stones fall on their heads, this battle will be easy to fight." ”

Master Gad looked up at the tallest stalagmites around the fork in the road, and he smiled at the leader of the Warrior Guild squad. "It's a good idea. ”

The high-ranking followers of the Green Cross Cult are all corrupt practitioners with a professional level of fifteen or above. Only corrupt walkers with a level of more than fifteen can survive the decay period and return to the appearance of human beings. Although their internal structure is completely different from that of humans at this time, they are not any different from humans in appearance. This makes many enemies unaware that they are actually something different from the physiology of humans when facing the High Ranks, and that injuries that can be fatal to humans are nothing more than skin injuries that can be easily healed by the Green Cross High Ranks. Many times their opponents thought they had slain the High Rank of the Green Cross, and then they were attacked from behind by these opponents who pretended to be dead.

This time, the Green Cross High Rank Cultist who was in charge of the counterattack in the Deep Valley Prison Area was named Bu Yingge, who was a level seventeen corrupt walker and a level fifteen blighted druid. His lieutenant's name is Dardor, and the level of the Corrupt Walker is also level seventeen, but at the same time he is also a level fourteen alchemist. With such a level, Dardo can be called a master even in the talented Alchemist Guild.

The two of them led fifty elites in the Green Cross Cult, all of whom were good players at or above the tenth level of their personal occupation, and they were all successful works accumulated by the Green Cross Cult over the years of conducting a large number of human experiments. These elites are self-conscious living dead who have been tortured by a large number of inhumane experiments. After surviving the horrific experiments, he was brainwashed into a fanatical believer by the Green Cross cultists and controlled with strong drugs. Each of these surviving subjects has unique abilities, some are resistant to fire, some are capable of spitting venom, and some can harden their epidermis and muscles to resist physical attacks. These abilities are strange, and some may not be very practical, but they represent a series of achievements made by the Green Cross Cult in the transformation of the human body.

Being able to lead such an elite army made Buinger feel that he must be very trustworthy in the eyes of the archbishop. What's more, there were two terrifying flesh golems behind him. This terrible golem is not a construct in the normal sense of the word, it is more like a flesh monster created with evil spells.

Each Flesh Golem weighed a ton, was four meters tall and four meters wide, and was a terrifying killing machine with a combat level of fifteen. These monsters are made from human flesh and blood, and after being damaged in battle, they can be quickly recovered by allowing the Flesh Golem to directly devour human flesh. Beneath their seemingly bloated exterior are highly toxic bodily fluids and various biological weapons. Each Flesh Golem is made from the flesh and blood of over five hundred victims, and the remains of anyone who dies during or before the experiment is used to make the Flesh Golem. The biggest factor limiting the Green Cross cult's massive expansion of the number of flesh golems is the lack of raw materials. This time, a large number of untrustworthy people were captured from outside, just to prepare materials for the production and repair of flesh golems in time.

Leading such a powerful force to deal with a small group of enemies who had attacked the prison of the deep valley, Bu Yingge felt like he was killing chickens with a knife. This false sense of power was about to bring disaster to him.
