Chapter 51: Instant Kill
Nine men descended into the night in groups of three, groping in the direction where the Frozen Rabbit might exist.
Several people are veterans who have been rolling around in life and death all their lives, and the level of hiding has a certain level, and they tried to avoid a large group of Warcraft along the way, and they really couldn't avoid it before they rushed up, and the strength of the mercenaries was originally a big cut beyond the Warcraft group, plus the hands and feet were extremely clean, and they were buried on the spot immediately after killing the Warcraft, so until they infiltrated the hinterland of the Warcraft group, they did not cause the slightest commotion.
Chen Yue and Thorn and a mercenary named Wu Rui were separated together, and there was no difficulty in sneaking into the hinterland, but the obvious difference from the other two groups was that the number and quality of the demonic beasts they encountered in this group were a cut higher, and as they continued to advance, there was a faint feeling that it was difficult to move an inch.
Thorne and Uri were both excited, knowing that this situation undoubtedly showed that they had chosen the right direction.
I didn't expect that a blind cat could meet a dead mouse if I chose a random direction, and both of them were a little lucky.
Chen Yue couldn't smile a little bitterly, he could feel that the Frozen Rabbit had already noticed his arrival, and was approaching here, but unfortunately, it was far from being able to incorporate it into the subspace.
"It seems that we still have to find a chance to get rid of them. The slender fingers slid lightly over the blue-patterned card, and Chen Yue was silent in thought, but glanced at Thorn not far away......
It's hard.
He can understand that Thorne has divided him together, naturally with the intention of protection, and along the way, he rarely has the opportunity to make a move, and his body is far from being in the best condition, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out by normal means.
The group of demonic beasts became denser and denser, as if someone behind them was waving a whip to drive them to concentrate here, and gradually, Thorne also realized that something was wrong, it was no longer them who went deep into the hinterland of the demonic beast group, but an endless stream of demonic beasts rushing in the direction where they were, forcing them to keep retreating.
"How so?" Thorne and Uri looked at each other in horror, unable to figure out why.
It's no wonder that they don't understand, that group of adventurers has bad intentions, even if they didn't tell the truth at the last moment, the demon can't hide the aura of life when he does it, so they must know the identity of the frozen rabbit's demon, and they guessed that there must be an apostle nearby, however, such a critical information, they didn't leak it until their death.
If Thorne and the others knew that the Frozen Rabbit was a demon, and it was more likely that there would be an apostle nearby, then no matter what, they would not choose to kill the Frozen Rabbit, but in this way, those adventurers would have no chance to escape, so unscrupulous, it can be seen that they have malicious intentions.
This was also one of the reasons why Chen Yue insisted on coming along, not just because all this trouble was caused by its demons.
Retreat, keep retreating.
It is no longer realistic to move on, the demonic beasts in front of you have been densed to a certain extent, and it is difficult to lurk in the past anymore.
In order not to cause Warcraft*, the three of them can only keep retreating, after all, the concentration of Warcraft is still blind now, but if their whereabouts are discovered, it is conceivable that they will be besieged by countless Warcraft.
Cold sweat slid down their sideburns, and despite wearing thick winter clothing, the three of them still felt like they were falling into an ice cave.
"Commander, what should I do?" asked Uri in a slumber voice.
After a moment's struggle, Thorne hesitated for a long time between continuing the assassination and giving up, and in the end, the safety of most people prevailed.
"Return to the camp first, Urui, you go and call the others over, there is no need to divide the troops, the leader of the monster is on our side. Gritting his teeth, Thorne said resolutely.
Uri departed.
Glancing at Chen Yue, who looked indifferent, a trace of apology flashed in Thorne's eyes.
"Brother Chen Yue, I've been a burden to you, and next, I'm afraid I won't have the strength to protect you. β
Chen Yue smiled lightly, reached out and patted Thorne on the shoulder, everything was silent.
After Wu Rui left, the manpower was even more insufficient, and when the two retreated, they encountered several waves of demonic beasts, and even Chen Yue, who rarely had a chance to make a move, also made a move.
"Click. The long sword and the beast's claws slapped together, and when the air split into two, Chen Yue's eyes flashed, and his left hand reached out like lightning, and he grabbed the throat of the sneaking bull-headed demonic beast, and twisted it hard, the neck of the minotaur was suddenly pinched off, and the head drooped weakly.
"Good kung fu. With a soft shout, Chen Yue turned his head to look, Thorn pressed a demonic beast in each hand, and the flame-like fighting energy burned on them, burning them into ashes with a snap of his fingers, and the gap between the two orders made him completely useless to deal with.
A hint of brilliance flashed in his eyes, this kind of bull-headed beast was no stranger to him, it was dressed in copper skin and iron bones, and its bones were extremely hard, it was a good material for magicians to make a staff, and ordinary third-order fighters had to cut it with all their strength to cut it off a few times, who knew that in Chen Yue's hands, it was so easy.
And, if I'm not mistaken, he didn't use vindictiveness.
At this time, he realized that he still underestimated this young man with a mysterious background.
Thorne was shocked in his heart, he naturally wouldn't think that Chen Yue was hiding his secrets, and in this case, he didn't need it, which could only show that Chen Yue really wouldn't.
"In this way, how powerful his ** will be. β
Looking at Chen Yue, it was as if he was looking at an uncarved piece of jade, you must know that the outer abilities such as Dou Qi and Magic Power have a very poor nourishing effect on the body, even if he is as strong as him, in terms of body alone, maybe he is not Chen Yue's opponent, such a freak, if he cultivates Dou Qi......
"Why haven't you cultivated Dou Qi, otherwise, the sword wouldn't have broken. Thorne said in a casual manner: "If Chen Yue is not disgusted, I have a set of fighting secrets at hand that I can teach you." β
Vindictive?
Chen Yue's footsteps froze, he shook his head with a smile, with the power of life, will there be anyone who will cultivate Douqi? Not to mention that the two cannot coexist, in terms of light effect, it is not very useful to Chen Yue who has the "Health Preservation Tips", maybe it will damage the body instead.
It's a pity that this long sword, he has a higher demand for weapons without fighting spirit, and the right weapon can greatly improve his strength, and the long sword is just an ordinary commodity borrowed from mercenaries, where can it withstand high-intensity battles.
Counting it, I don't know if this long sword is the first weapon destroyed in Chen Yue's hands......
It would be nice to be able to control the blade beast.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yue's gaze stayed on the blue-veined card on his fingertips.
As if sensing the strong expectation surging in Chen Yue's heart, a dark light flashed on the blue-veined card, and then, the blade beast jumped out of the subspace without waiting for Chen Yue's summons.
As usual, it was dilapidated and quietly suspended in front of Chen Yue, but inexplicably, at the moment when the blade beast appeared, Chen Yue had a feeling that some unexpected but exciting changes had occurred.
It's like a child who has been arguing with his parents, going on a hunger strike, or even running away from home, finally cast a friendly look after a few days of cold war.
In the chest, the speed of the heart's beating suddenly increases.
"Could it be ......" Licking his slightly dry lips, Chen Yue stabilized his mind, and his right hand was firmly stretched out, landing firmly on the hilt of the sword.
The next moment, the clouds were light and the wind was light, and nothing abnormal happened.
The five fingers subconsciously tightened, feeling an unusually solid sense of existence, Chen Yue finally confirmed that he was able to initially control the blade beast.
"How can this be, I remember that the fit was a little worse before I fell unconscious...... Could it be because of the second transformation?" Such an unexpected joy made Chen Yue scratch his head, but there was no good time to explore at this moment, what he wanted to know more was what the ability of the blade beast was.
"Then ......" Gently, Chen Yue spit out a few words: "Aura of life, now." β
The dazzling brilliance was transmitted from between the fingers, and at the same time, a slight burning sensation came from the palm of his hand, making Chen Yue let go of his hand slightly.
At this time, Chen Yue was in the mood to seriously observe the form of the blade beast.
Unlike the rusty blade, the hilt of the bladed beast is carved with countless subtle and elegant patterns, making it feel like it is bursting out at a glance, and it looks very vivid. Nine rings were carved from top to bottom on the hilt, dividing the pattern into ten parts, and at this time, the top two rings were filled with red xenomorph energy, slowly flowing in opposite directions to each other.
This scene is exactly the same as the life aura of the Frozen Rabbit, the difference is that the life aura of the blade beast is much smaller, it can be attached to the hilt of the sword, and it is difficult to see if you don't look carefully.
As time passed, they lit up one by one, and a faint red glow reflected on these patterns, adding a bit of evil aura to the hilt of the sword. There is a small amount of red energy flowing from the two rings onto the pattern between the rings
"Hum. After the patterns of the first part were all lit up, the blade beast silently vibrated and immediately after, the red energy light soared, flowing up along the hilt like flowing water, infiltrating every part of the sword body, and soon, the blade beast's sword body flowed with this red energy.
When these red energies finally returned to the aura, the blade beast's sword body suddenly took on a new look, and it no longer had a rusty appearance, but a faint red light on its body, and with a slight wave, infinite ferocity escaped.
"What a murderer. "Seeing this scene, if you still can't guess the nature of the blade beast's ability, then Chen Yue will not match the name of a genius.
At the beginning, when the blade beast appeared automatically, due to being held by Chen Yue's body, Thorn did not notice the abnormality, but the appearance of the life aura and the subsequent looming ferocity immediately attracted the attention of Thorne, a strong man who was extremely sensitive to murderous aura.
The razor-sharp gaze was projected onto the blade beast in Chen Yue's hand for the first time, but the life aura of the blade beast was already dim, and with Chen Yue's fingers covering most of the hilt, Thorne didn't see anything wrong.
The doubts flashed in his heart, Thorne frowned slightly, and was about to turn his head, when a flash of darkness suddenly caught a flash of darkness out of the corner of his eye, which crossed the distance of more than ten meters like lightning, and with a fishy wind, he pounced towards Chen Yue, who was standing aside.
This blow was both ruthless and accurate, the shadow lurked to a very close distance unconsciously, and it was Chen Yue, who was relatively weak, and Thorne could almost see the miserable scene of flesh and blood flying in the next moment, and his whole heart was raised.
The shadow was obviously very good at lurking, and his mind was attracted by the changes in the blade beast before, so even Chen Yue didn't react, but the nerves that had been tempered subconsciously reacted.
With a backhand sword, the blade beast slashed unmistakably into the claws at the very front of the shadow.
There was no violent collision, and there was no hindrance, as if holding an extremely sharp paper cutter and slashing through the white paper, the blade beast sliced through the body of the shadow.
The next moment, blood spilled wildly, and the shadow, which had been split into two pieces, fell weakly on the snow.
Chen Yue's pupils widened suddenly.
