Chapter 311: The Royal Guard

The shell of the Abyssal Worm was very hard, even if it was subjected to a large rain of arrows, it was only bombarded with a small gap on the surface, only a thin blue blood rushed out, for its overall huge and bloated body, only a very small part of it passed, and the metallic sound of collision was endless.

After a while, the rain of arrows stopped. And a black shadow that jumped up was soaring in the air, only to see him very sensitive to flip several times in a row, a large purple bow with a length of nearly two meters suddenly opened horizontally in front of him, and the sharp arrows on the string were the same as the number of abyssal worms, five.

The bow stretched to the extreme like a full moon, and a few traces of red light poured into the shaft of the arrow from the fingertips that pinched the tail feathers of the sharp arrow, and the surface of the blade of the arrow, which was originally flickering with cold light, was quickly filled with a touch of scorching scarlet.

In an instant, five sharp arrows shot out of the string, but instead of going straight through the sky like meteors, they circled and flipped in mid-air as if the feathered arrows themselves had life before falling a little staggeringly, faster and faster, just as each abyssal worm had one.

The moment the arrow touched the bloated body, a bright red light flashed out from the tail feathers, all of which were transmitted along the shaft of the arrow, and a large flame of light erupted in an instant. A loud explosion rang out, and every abyss worm tumbled at the point of the arrow, except for a large area of scorching flames, and the crimson flame wave engulfed most of their bodies.

The smoke and flames quickly dissipated, and the abyssal worms that had only been lightly injured under the rain of arrows before screamed incessantly, and a scorched black gap exploded on their bodies, and a few traces of fiery red that had not yet receded could be faintly seen from them.

At the same time, a galloping horse leaped over the sand dunes, skimming through the air at the side of Wind Tough, and the cold light of a spear he held in his hand flickered continuously. When it passed by in a flash, the eyes of the two made contact slightly, but what Feng Ren saw from the other party's eyes was a trace of gloom and coldness.

The tip of the spear was provoked, and the man jumped up from the horse, and as he slashed through the sky, purple thunder frantically circulated on the entire spear, and with a slash falling from the sky, it smashed into one of the abyssal worms in the sand sea, and the bombardment was exactly where it was blasted by the sharp arrow before.

The surging and furious force was instantly injected into the bloated body, and the dull roar cut off the abyssal worm from it, and the two remnants of the body that were blown away by the thunder fell into the yellow sand and still writhed slightly, and the section was scorched black and shattered.

Feng Ren secretly praised in his heart, estimating that even Yu Wenkun, who had similar moves, was a few points inferior in pure destructive power compared to the person in front of him.

And when he was surprised, the man's spear momentum was like a tidal wave, the dark purple thunder light continued to flip and jump, and the fierce force infinitely bombarded the bodies of the remaining four abyssal worms, and the location was still the same as the wound of the previous arrow. I only saw a purple figure turning into a streamer and constantly echoing above the sea of sand, and a series of thunderous sounds were endless.

Until this moment, Feng Ren suddenly discovered a problem, these abyssal worms seemed to have fallen into evil, and they actually stopped there and still raged with the man's gun, only shaking their bloated bodies slightly, and did not burrow back into the sea of sand. It's like ...... The feeling of being killed.

During this time, the pain in his left arm finally began to subside, and in the whistling wind, Feng Ren suddenly realized something. To be precise, it was the sound that he had noticed something strange that he hadn't noticed before.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that before the three Abyssal Worms broke the encirclement and retreated on their own, and before that change of attack strategy, it seems that similar strange noises had also appeared. It's just that in this sea of sand, there are too many small sounds, and they haven't attracted the attention of Feng Ren in front. This time, however, the source of the sound seemed to be in a hurry, both loud and lasting longer than before.

After realizing this, a terrible thought appeared in Feng Ren's mind: these abyssal worms were controlled and commanded, and it was impossible to determine who the other party was, or even whether it was a human or not.

Another thought also came to mind, so that Feng Ren himself was a little incredulous, but in the current situation, there was only one explanation: the mysterious creature parasitic in his left arm seemed to be the source of those abyssal worms retreating in fear and being slaughtered.

After killing all the abyss worms, the man with the spear slowly walked back with his blade on his shoulder, glared at Feng Ren as if he was a little dazzling, and then joined the person who had shot five arrows in the air before, looking at the tacit understanding between them, it must be an old partner.

Dozens of horsemen also rushed to the sand dunes at this moment, people like tigers and horses, all neatly equipped on their bodies, and that kind of exquisite longbows, throwing spears and slashers were obviously not something that the mercenary group could have. There is no need to look at their banners, Feng Ren can conclude that this is a regular army that belongs to a certain empire, and it is not of a low rank.

What surprised him the most was that behind those centaurs, they were followed by Tie Tong, Jia Zuoding, Arc and others who had left earlier, as well as the members of the mercenary group who had returned first. After thinking about it for a while, Feng Ren understood that they must have happened to meet them, so he sent out a call for help. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence.

Tie Tong saw that Feng Ren's body was covered with fine sand and his robe was broken, but his mental state was still good, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and still said with some fear: "Fortunately, I met them, otherwise I am afraid that we will really not be able to see each other again." ”

Feng Ren replied: "If I say that I still have a way to escape, do you believe it?"

"Hmph, what a big deal! If we hadn't arrived in time, you'd have been buried in the sand. The man with the gun shouted very politely, and there was a faint disdain in his tone.

"Okay, Han Tan, it's already very good that this little brother can fight against so many giant insects alone. I guess if it weren't for the fierce battles before, I'm afraid it wouldn't be much better if it were you in that situation. The man with the bow and arrow in his hand was bold, and he stretched out his hand very friendly and handed it to Feng Ren and said: "In Xia Zhao Jianyang, the third commander of the royal guard of the Lalai Empire, this is my brother, and the fifth commander Han Tan. ”

Feng Ren smiled and reached out and pressed Zhao Jianyang's palm and replied, "Fortunately." Brother Zhao's bow and arrow, Brother Han's spear, are really amazing, and the wind is tenacious and admirable. ”

Having said that, he still made a simple estimate in his heart, and finally came to the conclusion that if he was at his peak, the chance of winning against either of these two people should be about ninety percent. However, if you face two at once, I am afraid that the odds of winning are less than six percent.

For the praise of Feng Ren, Han Tan only "snorted" and did not pay too much attention to it.

Zhao Jianyang clenched Feng Ren's palm, and at the same time looked at the remnants of the giant insects below and replied, "These monsters have caused a lot of killings in the sand sea in the past few months. This time, I also came to investigate and clean up in the name of His Majesty, but I didn't expect to encounter it the next day, I don't know whether to say that it was my luck, or the blessing of the people who passed by. ”

But Feng Ren seemed to whisper a little out of place: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. This thing is called the Abyss Worm, and it is a very rare desert monster with low intelligence. Their habits are supposed to be separate, and this time they gathered so many at once, they should be attracted to something, or ......"

As the commander of the Royal Guard, Zhao Jianyang understood a little, he nodded and said in a deep voice: "You mean, this is controlled by someone behind the scenes. If that's the case, then this matter will be troublesome, and it will definitely not be as simple as attacking the people who pass by. I've just heard from Captain Iron that even the Lion Mercenary Regiment has been murdered. And the Xiongshi Mercenary Regiment happens to be the one that has the best relationship with my Lalai Empire among the major mercenary groups in this area......"

Suddenly, Zhao Jianyang realized that he had missed something, and quickly stopped.

Feng Ren also heard the implication, but he didn't ask too many questions in this regard, but asked another question: "How strong is the Lion Mercenary Group compared to your team?"

"Of course, they are stronger, Han Tan and I are both at the peak of the realm, while the leader of the Lion Mercenary Regiment is a triple strength, and the deputy head is also a heavy. Counting the combat capability of the rest of the corps, whether it is the number or combat skills, it is not comparable to my current team......" Zhao Jianyang was very honest, and did not hide anything because he wanted to admit that he was weaker.

At this time, Han Tan was a little impatient, and he shouted, "Third brother, what are you doing with him?" Since we have completed the task, let's call it a day and go back." There is nothing in this sea of sand, and there is nothing like being at ease in the city. ”

As soon as these words came out, those royal guards also nodded in agreement, but on the other hand, they did not behave like this. Seeing such a scene, Feng Ren also understood why Zhao Jianyang was so willing to admit that his team was not as strong as the Lion Mercenary Group. Although the combat effectiveness is good, there are obviously some problems in discipline, and there are some tendencies to indulge in leisure and dislike hard work.

Seeing Feng Ren's puzzled gaze, Zhao Jianyang whispered in his ear with some shame: "Let Brother Feng laugh." The so-called royal guards, in fact, many of them are nobles who go through the motions and play with gold. Except for the one led by the Grand Commander himself, the rest can fight in addition to being able to fight, which is basically full of shortcomings. The ones I brought out this time are not bad, at least they are not ambiguous at all when they go to the battlefield. ”

Feng Ren was slightly stunned, in fact, it was not because of what Zhao Jianyang said, but because he said these things unreservedly in front of an outsider.

However, this doubt quickly disappeared, because some people in those guards had already shouted: "Okay, third brother, every time you see someone who thinks you are good, you have to expose our old bottom, can you not lose it?"

The rest of the people cheered one after another, and Feng Ren was suddenly a little surprised: dare to love this is what he means?

Zhao Jianyang raised his hand to signal his subordinates to stop, but it didn't have much effect. It seems that this team is really undisciplined on weekdays. Or maybe it's because the nature of their trifect is too easy-going.

"So in Brother Feng's opinion, what should we do next?" Zhao Jianyang finally had to ignore the coaxing of his subordinates.

Feng Ren groped his chin with a little thought and replied, "Let's go back to the city first." As you said, the stronger lion mercenary groups were easily eliminated by that unknown force with the help of the Abyss Worm. If it's head-on, I'm afraid the people here are no match either. Moreover, we don't know the strength of the other party at all, plus the enemy is dark and I am ......"

Zhao Jianyang nodded and said, "Agreed, then go back first." Some of these results may be no problem for the superiors and VIPs. When you get to town, how about I treat you to a drink?"

Feng Ren smiled bitterly: "It's okay to drink." In my current situation, what I need more is pills to heal my wounds. ”

The most direct consequence of the damage to the storage ring was that the pills he relied on before could not be taken out at all......
