79. Failed rescue operations
The appearance of a red magic flare in the sky means that the warrior team in the adjacent area is in a critical situation, which is a signal for help.
It's just that at this time, the magic signal flare is fired into the sky, not only the other warrior teams around it will be seen, but also the demon patrols in this area, which means that the warrior teams and demons in the nearby area will move closer to the distress signal area.
The bearded Cagle ran quickly to the foot of a large tree, climbed up the tree in a few clicks, and looked in the direction of the flare, but in the distance there was a dense forest, and there was no situation on the other side.
Augustus was a little stunned when he saw the flare, and then he scolded: "These brainless fools, firing red flares here, don't you think we all die fast enough?" ”
Augustus's words, though mean, are true.
The scout team of the Heavy Infantry Regiment encounters evil spirits, even if they ask for help, what can they do, will the other brother teams have the strength to defeat evil spirits?
One of the squad fighters sitting next to him also complained, "I guess they want to drag us scout teams into the water together." ”
Red Sox interjected, "Maybe they spotted the large force of the Demon Legion and sent a warning signal to the Fourth Brigade......"
Augustus said angrily: "Then they should fire yellow bullets." ”
This time as an advance army into the Moyun Ridge area, the fourth brigade of warriors in order to facilitate the contact between each other, each scout team carried three magic signal flares, the three signal flares are divided into three colors, the red bullet means that the team is in distress to request support, the yellow bullet means that a large number of demon warriors have been found, and the green bullet means that a safe camping spot has been found, which is a road sign signal to guide the way.
A squad of fighters in the neighboring area fired red flares, clearly seeking support when they were in danger.
Red Socks asked Surdak, "Captain, what are we going to do?" ”
For Surdak, this is a difficult thing to choose, if you don't go to the rescue, once the warrior squad in the neighboring area dies collectively, it will inevitably be reprimanded by the military judge when you return to the infantry regiment in the future, but running to the rescue will put your squad in danger.
After thinking seriously for a moment, Surdak finally decided: "Go over and take a look, pay attention to concealment, if the situation is out of control, we can also withdraw in time!" ”
Now that you've decided to rush to the rescue, you'll have to race against time, and it might be helpful to arrive before the demon support team.
The soldiers of the second squad quickly packed their bags, since it was a rescue mission, the tent set up by the squad in the dense forest did not carry it, and the thirteen fighters streamlined their belongings, and walked along the slope to the location of the magic flare in the camouflage of leaves.
After passing through the jurisdiction belonging to the second squad, following the footprints left by the demon patrol, I finally saw the tragic battlefield left after the fierce battle in a woodland, the corpses of several heavily armored soldiers fell horizontally on the glade, the wounds on the corpses were almost all through wounds and lacerations, the copper cuirass became a pile of broken copper and iron under the tearing of the great force, the chest cavity of the warrior was cut open by a sharp weapon, the internal organs inside flowed all over the ground, and the ventricles were hollowed out.
The woodland was strewn with blood, and a pear tree with the thick mouth of a sea bowl was broken from it, leaving some messy footprints on the muddy woodland.
Red Socks squatted in front of a corpse, turned out the warrior's nameplate from the corpse, clenched it tightly in his hand, and cursed through gritted teeth:
"This group of brutes ......"
Surdak examined the traces around the battlefield and found some messy footprints stretching west of the jungle, and commanded:
"Beware of the ambush of the demons, Augustus, and take someone around and search the neighborhood."
Augustus straightened his waist, although he usually has a big temper and a foul mouth, but he is still a more reliable person at critical moments.
"Yes, Captain." After Augustus finished speaking, he called out to the two squads of warriors and reached around the woodland.
"The rest of me come with me!"
After Surdak finished speaking, he led the members of the second team to chase down the footprints left by the demons.
After only walking more than 200 meters, I saw the corpse of a heavily armored infantry soldier, hanging on the trunk of a tree, the head was no longer found, a huge blood hole appeared from the collarbone, and the chest cavity was empty.
It seems that the warrior wanted to hide in a large tree, but was discovered by the evil spirits, and his body was pierced on a branch that stretched out diagonally, and blood flowed from the tree.
Seeing the tragic situation of the warrior being killed, the blood on the ground continued to extend into the depths of the dense forest, and Surdak wanted to continue the pursuit forward with red eyes.
At this time, the sentry scroll inserted on He Boqiang burned all of a sudden, he quickly pulled out the sentry scroll and threw it on the ground, and after a while, the sentry scroll turned into ashes, and the sentry totem was inserted next to the bones of the mountain beast, and it was estimated that it was stepped on by the evil ghost.
A large demonic beast like the Mountain Beast is almost the top of the food chain in Moyun Ridge, even if it becomes a pile of bones after death, the weak beasts dare not approach, and those who dare to approach the Mountain Beast must be those evil ghosts.
He Boqiang grabbed the somewhat hot-headed Surdak and pointed to him at the sentry scroll on the ground.
Surdak saw the sentry magic scroll burned to ashes, wiped his face fiercely, and said decisively to the members of the second squad behind him: "Let's withdraw!" ”
He Boqiang followed the second squad to retreat to the previous battlefield, and just saw Augustus running out of the dense forest with two warriors in embarrassment, and behind the three of them, a demon more than three meters tall suddenly appeared, this evil ghost was covered with black magic patterns on one shoulder, green fangs, but there were no horns on its head.
The demon clenched a spur in his hand and strode after him, his eyes full of banter and evil.
The two of them, Red Socks and Bearded, untied the alloy bow from behind them as they ran, and as soon as they ran into range, they stopped almost at the same time, knelt down on one knee and pulled the alloy bow and shot two stainless steel arrows.
The arrows 'whoosh, whoosh' sounded twice in quick succession, and shot out quickly.
The demon felt an arrow flying as he ran, and he simply raised his arm to cover his face.
And he saw two arrows, one in his arm, and the other in his shoulder.
The devil's skin was very tough, and the arrows shot by the bearded and red socks only pierced through that layer of skin, and then hung on their shoulders without any strength.
However, the two arrows managed to attract the attention of the demon, who saw another group of Imperial warriors emerge from the woodland, and his blood-red eyes showed a fierce gaze, and he pounced on Surdak.
Surdak hesitated.
Of all the members of the second squad, he and Augustus were the highest-ranking warriors, and they all belonged to the sixth level of warriors.
If he can't stop the demons, the other warriors will be even weaker.
This time he did not hesitate, holding a shield in one hand, and drawing a Roman sword in the other, he took a few steps forward, put on a defensive posture towards the demons, and shouted to the second squad of warriors behind him: "Everyone is ready to fight......
The heavy infantry regiment also has a set of combat plans for the demons, that is, the strongest fighters in the team stand at the front to resist the attack of the demons, and the other members of the squad take the opportunity to kill the demons from the side.
At such times, someone has to stand up to the attack of evil spirits.
And whether he can withstand the full force of the demon is the key to Surdak's survival.
The other fighters of the second squad also put on a desperate posture.
When the evil ghost saw that He Boqiang was actually facing the battle, he even accelerated his running speed, and it was like a steam train crashing into it from a distance.
Surdak stood at the forefront, his heart full of news, and he was ready to die.
Just as the demon raised the military thorn in his hand and was about to stab the upper shield in Po Surdak's hand, a dwarven chain shield suddenly stretched out from Surdak's side, firmly blocking in front of Surdak, and the military thorn in the demon's hand pierced the dwarven chain shield, bursting out a series of sparks.
He Boqiang and Surdak collided fiercely together, flying sideways and falling out......
