Chapter 351: Beasts

Today's batch of mercenaries can be counted as the last group, plus the remaining three mercenary groups from the previous one, the total number of people reaches 70.

The combined number of the previous three mercenary groups was about 90 people, but unfortunately now there are heavy casualties.

According to statistics, the number of beasts that appeared in the first attack was less than nine hundred, and the beasts that appeared in the second attack were close to a thousand, and the field of vision was full of beasts, which was extremely shocking, and the impact of that time was really a nightmare, and the three mercenary groups tried their best to kill nearly six hundred.

The third attack was originally expected two days ago, and the number should have been around four hundred, but the beast herd was not seen for a long time.

Even yesterday, it was already the longest buffer period of three days, and the mercenaries and townspeople were ready to fight to the death, but they still didn't see the beasts appear.

For this, everyone felt extremely strange and could not figure it out, but they did not dare to be careless at all, and they were on guard all day long, especially tonight.

Soon the group arrived at the inn, where almost all the mercenaries had arrived.

Lansry gathered everyone in the hall and introduced the newcomers so that everyone could get acquainted with each other so that they could fight later.

Fighting in a group is the most important thing to coordinate, and if these people do not know each other at all, like a mass of scattered sand, then the battle with the beast herd will be lost.

So this Lansri became the person in charge, so that everyone knew each other, got acquainted with each other, and did their best in the battle.

For Qin Lang, everyone was suspicious, after all, he was too young, and it was really unreassuring to learn that this was his first time on a mission. Doubtful of his strength.

Night is quietly falling.

After a brief acquaintance, the people were assigned to defend themselves.

Qin Lang was left in the inn as a pick-up.

Sangluo Town was enveloped in a tense atmosphere, women, children and old people were gathered in a sturdy house, and all the young adults in the town took up hoes or sickles or broadswords and hammers as weapons, and followed the mercenaries to guard the edge of the town.

Time passed, and there was silence outside the town, as well as silence inside the town.

I don't know how long it took. People's hanging hearts gradually fall. Thought the beast herd wouldn't show up tonight.

But suddenly a loud wolf howl came from the west side of the town, piercing the night sky and breaking the silence. The wolf howl came, revealing the cold. It made everyone excited. They all cheered up.

Qin Lang sitting cross-legged in the hotel. When he heard the wolf howl, he opened his eyes.

"It's coming. ”

He glanced at Qin Xiaocang not far away, and saw that he didn't react at all. So he left him alone, and hurried to the front of the inn to meet with the people who had been left behind.

Lansri is also here, and as the person in charge, he needs to lead the people and command them to resist this attack.

They had been waiting for four days, and they had been prepared for everything, and this time Lancery was confident that they would be able to withstand the attack well, and if the situation allowed, they would take the initiative and drive the beast herd back to its habitat once and for all.

There were only ten people left, and Lansri looked at everyone with a solemn expression: "Granna, you take three people to hurry to the west to support, Aaron and Pony, you quickly go and inform the people and horses in other places, and be ready to go to the west to meet at any time." ”

"Yes. ”

The three people who were named by Lan Sili answered one after another, and the one named Ah Long was a tall and thin man, he was a martial cultivator, and he was silent.

The other pony was a young man in his twenties, who could be said to be second only to Qin Lang in age among these mercenaries. He is also a martial artist, but his hair is yellow like Lanceri's, but his eyes are blue.

Not only are these two martial arts cultivators, but they are both good at speed.

As soon as Lansri's order was given, the two of them sped away.

Granna was a burly man with a shiny bald head, also a martial artist, and his weapon was a sledgehammer with incredible destructive power.

He hurried west with three mercenaries.

At this point, there are only four people left, except for Qin Lang and Lan Sili, one of the other two is a woman, the only woman in this mercenary, nearly thirty years old, and a famous spirit master. The other is named Gao Xian, a peak swordsman, he licked his lower lip, and his expression revealed a bloodthirsty feeling.

Lan Cy glanced at the three people in front of him, his brows furrowed, one was the youngest, one was the only woman, and the last one was a bloodthirsty maniac, these three were the most troublesome of all the mercenaries this time, so he was left last, not knowing how to dispatch.

"Lansri, the beasts are all here, why don't you let Lao Tzu go. The man named Gao Xi suddenly asked.

"It's not time yet, this wolf howl doesn't represent the entire herd of beasts, and there may be another group attacking from other directions, and you'll need to support it then. ”

"Hmph, okay, then Lao Tzu wait a little longer, if there is no attack from other directions after an hour, Lao Tzu will go to the west. ”

Lansri didn't talk to him again, didn't look at him again, looked to the west of the town, looked nervous, and secretly prayed in his heart, "I hope nothing happens, this time we must resist it, and kill them, and drive them back." ”

"Hey, it would be nice if Big Brother Ah Guo was here, with his strength, this group of beasts is not a threat at all. It's a pity that he has been gone for several years and has not been heard from. I don't know if I learned about this, and if I can rush back. Lansry sighed inwardly, expecting someone to return.

But at this moment, the high-shirted man looked at Qin Lang and the woman and suddenly sneered, and let out a low voice: "Jiji, a little doll, and a little girl, even came to be a mercenary, I really don't know whether to live or die." ”

Hearing this, the woman who had closed her eyes and recuperated suddenly opened her eyes, glared angrily, and a murderous aura flashed out.

This woman's name is Youruo, although she is nearly thirty years old, she is well maintained, and she looks only twenty years old. However, there is a striking scar on the back of her left hand, as well as a murderous aura suddenly revealed under her eyes, and she has been a mercenary for a while, and has experienced a life and death crisis.

Seeing this scene, Lan Siri's eyes lit up, and he was relieved of the ghostly ruo. However, it is even more of a headache for high shirts.

"Hey, interesting. Not only was the shirt not afraid, but a sneer came out and licked his lips.

"Enough! The big war is coming, so don't have infighting. Lancery spoke at the right time, and a strong aura permeated the air, and a faint red emanated from his body, shocking Gao Xi and Yuruo.

"Peak Spirit Master, no, it's a half-step Spirit Leader!" Gao Xian's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he snorted coldly. Turn and retreat.

Half-step Lingkui. It means that he no longer belongs to the category of spirit masters, and is in the stage of absorbing elements, but the amount of elements is not enough to reach a heavy heavenly spirit kui.

Usually such people are in retreat, trying to break through to the true spiritual leader. It's rare to travel away. It is also a mercenary mission.

Qin Lang had been looking at this qiē coldly. He didn't speak, because he was constantly suppressing the tension that couldn't help but rise in his heart, and he kept adjusting his state. Make yourself the best.

After all, this was his first mission, and he was going to face a horde of terrifying beasts.

In the past, although he had been hunting wild beasts in the forest outside Kunluo City, he had also faced a herd of wild beasts, but that was completely incomparable to the situation he was about to face now.

The herds of beasts that appeared in the forest were usually a few or more than a dozen, and at most dozens of beasts appeared together, and this time it was said that more than four hundred beasts would appear at the same time. In the past, when encountering a herd of wild beasts, the enemy could flee, but now the task is to fend off the attack and even drive them back to their habitat.

The gap between the two is obvious, and it's a fight for life.

However, mercenary is a profession that hovers between life and death, and as long as you take this step, you must be prepared to die at any time.

A moment later, there was a shout of killing in the west, and a flash of fire rushed up, lighting up the night sky.

Fire is the most effective weapon against wild beasts, so a lot of tinder and rockets have been prepared beforehand.

"It's been a complete battle, I don't know if it's all there. Lansri looked at the firelight and fell into deep thought.

Not long after, Pony and Aron return.

"Aaron, you go to the west to check on the situation, and come back in time to report to me. Pony, you go to a few other places, and come back to me as soon as there is any change. Thank you very much. Lansry gave the order again.

Before Aaron and the ponies could get some rest, they hurriedly took a sip of water and left again.

The battle on the west side seemed to be getting fiercer, with fires blazing and loud noises.

"Oh no, there are nearly three hundred beasts in the west, including several black panthers and white tigers, and the situation is unfavorable. After a while, Aaron ran back in a panic.

Hearing this, Lan Sili frowned, and secretly thought in his heart: "Three hundred...... It's about a hundred less than expected, and it's supposed to be a separate action. With the men from the west, plus the Granners, and some of the men from the south and north, the situation should be stabilized. ”

Immediately, he looked at Gao Xian and Youruo, and said, "You two go there to support, and deal with those black panthers and white tigers first." ”

"Haha, it's long overdue to let Lao Tzu go. Gao Xian Chang took a step out with a smile, and did not wait for Youruo, and went first.

Youruo opened his phoenix eyes, his eyes flickered, and he didn't talk nonsense, and headed towards the west.

"Aaron, you go and inform the guards in the south and the north, and send half of each to support the west at once. Lansley said again.

"Good. Aaron was about to leave, but saw the pony hurrying towards him.

"East and east...... About two hundred beasts...... The situation is critical. The pony panted.

"What!" Lance's complexion changed dramatically, "there are already nearly three hundred beasts in the west, how can there be nearly two hundred beasts." After the last war, there should only be about 400 left. ”

Lancy was extremely puzzled, but now he didn't have time to think about it, and immediately instructed Aaron and Pony, "You two go to the south and north respectively, let them leave three mercenaries and a small number of people to stay behind, and the rest of the men and horses half go to the east and half to the west." Hurry!"

"Yes!" Aron and the pony departed with gloomy faces.

Only Qin Lang and Lan Sili were left.

"Qin Lang, follow me to the east to support as soon as possible. Lan Sili frowned and said to Qin Lang.

"Yes. Qin Lang nodded silently and clenched the sword in his hand.

The two stopped talking nonsense, and immediately began their footwork and headed east.

"Qin Lang, the situation is critical, I'll go over first, you hurry up. As soon as he walked a little further, Lansley said, as soon as he finished speaking. The speed suddenly increases.

The sudden crisis in the east made him uneasy, and he felt bad, so he rushed to the ground with all his might, so he didn't care about Qin Lang and started at full speed.

However, Qin Lang was not as useless as he thought, he was also a peak sword master, and even more so a peak spirit master, and his strength far surpassed that of people of the same level.

He was silent, but suddenly accelerated, and followed closely behind Lanceley. Like a shadow.

Lansley seems to have checked. Looking back, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was pleasantly surprised, "It seems that I underestimated him." Hopefully he's not just fast. ”

The two ran in silence with all their might. Rush to the east of Sangluo Town.

Soon. Then I saw bursts of flames soaring into the sky, and screams kept coming.

"Faster. Lance looked anxious inside, and the spiritual power in his body was running rapidly. Speeding.

Seeing this, Qin Lang also used his spiritual power, gathered his feet, and rushed away.

The speed of the two was extremely fast, turning into two phantoms and flashing, and in a blink of an eye, they were close to the place of battle.

I saw that there was a row of newly built earthen walls, and hundreds of wild beasts were around the earthen walls, including wild wolves, wild boars, wild apes, poisonous snakes, foxes, etc., and even a few black panthers and white tigers wandering there.

"It seems that there are not many species of beasts that appear here and to the west. Black Panther, White Tiger, Beast Middle and High Rank Cun Zài, the strength is equivalent to a senior swordsman, or even a peak swordsman. Although it appeared last time, it was far less numerous than it is now, so why are there more beasts every time, strange!" Lancery looked at the beasts, his brows furrowed even tighter. Qin Lang stared at the beasts that were constantly attacking not far away, as well as the mercenaries and townspeople who were fighting to the death, and a sense of war ignited in his heart.

"Let's go!" Lancery roared, leaping to his feet, firing a sharp arrow of spiritual power towards a place riddled with poisonous snakes.

"Bang!"

The spiritual power arrow exploded, and a large mass of poisonous snakes was blown apart.

Qin Lang also arrived, and the Soul Crying Sword burst out, cutting off the head of a fox with a sword.

"Deputy Commander!"

"Lansley!"

"Brothers, resist!"

"Kill! Kill these brutes!"

"It's Brother Lan here, everyone!"

With the appearance of Lansri, everyone's fighting spirit was immediately aroused, and they shouted in unison, fighting with the beasts rushing from the opposite side.

The townsfolk were also in high spirits, and in groups of ten, they fended off the beasts.

Lan Sili is the person in charge of this mission, and he is also the spiritual symbol of everyone, he rushed to the front as soon as he came, and the strength of the half-step spirit kui was fully displayed, one by one the spirit skills were displayed, and each time he harvested the lives of a group of beasts.

Qin Lang looked at the hundreds of beasts, but he didn't show his timidity, and then rushed to the front, urging the Soul Crying Sword with spiritual power, and actually showed a cultivation higher than the sword master, and in the blink of an eye, there was a pile of corpses under his feet.

Qin Lang's appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention, and those mercenaries were even more surprised, they were originally bullying him when he was young and extremely suspicious, but now they were all stunned.

In their eyes, he was no longer a teenager, but a reliable mercenary who could fight alongside them.

A hint of surprise and relief flashed in Lan Siri's eyes, and he put his mind at ease and formed two sharp knives with Qin Lang to fight at the forefront.

The mercenaries were aroused by the two of them, and the fight was even more desperate, and a few people rushed out screaming, constantly slashing and killing.

And at this moment, reinforcements arrived, and more than a dozen mercenaries led dozens of townspeople to hurry over.

"Brothers, kill!"

"Folks, protect your homeland and keep the beasts at bay!"

The crowd rushed in shouts and joined the battle.

For a while, the battle became more intense.

Dozens of brute apes roared while beating their chests, attacking in a group, rampage, and no one could stop them.

Qin Lang's eyes turned, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes, staring at this group of brute apes.

With a wave of his left hand, he knocked several poisonous snakes into the air, and stepped forward, heading towards the group of apes.

In front of the group of apes were two mercenaries and a number of townspeople, who rushed out in a desperate attempt to stop the apes.

"Roar!"

The apes roared and rushed forward, and dozens of tall apes swung their fists together, with a terrifying sound.

The faces of the two mercenaries on the opposite side changed drastically, they were both martial cultivators, and they raised their weapons to resist.

"Bump!"

The terrifying impact was suddenly heard, and the two men took several steps back, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

By this time, the townsfolk had already pounced, all kinds of tools were available, and they all roared and smashed into the brute apes.

But these brute apes have rough skin and thick flesh, and they are extremely powerful, how can these ordinary people deal with them.

When I saw that the apes went crazy and their arms fluttered, they repelled the townspeople and fell to the ground.

There were even a few unlucky ones who were crippled, and some even had their heads blown off.

This bloody side was all seen in the eyes of Qin Lang, who rushed over, and suddenly his face turned pale, and a wave of disgust and sadness surged in his heart.

The living life was taken away by a group of brutes in front of his eyes, which made his young heart uneasy, fearful, and even more hateful and angry.

"Damn brute!"

"Old Five!"

"Kill them and avenge the old five!"

The townsfolk roared and rushed forward again, and the two mercenaries followed closely after their pain.

Their shouts woke Qin Lang up, he bit his lower lip to dispel the fear in his heart, suppressed the nausea, and the sword in his hand tightened, staring at the barbarian apes and running away.

"Die!"

Qin Lang spat out a word heavily, and slashed with a sword, only to see a brute ape fall down with a wail.

There was no time to rest, Qin Lang moved, slashed with a sword, and another brute ape fell.

Seeing Qin Lang's arrival and his formidable strength, the two mercenaries and the townspeople became more confident and braver.

These brute apes are not only resistant to attack and powerful, but they are also agile and extremely difficult to deal with.

Qin Lang continued to cast the "Seven Star Steps", and his spiritual power was fully opened, and he almost used all his strength to kill nearly twenty barbarian apes.

And the two mercenaries also killed more than ten with the cooperation, and the townspeople were also extremely brave, regardless of life and death, they also killed six barbarian apes in the case of nearly half of the casualties, and there were only ten barbarian apes left at this moment.

"Nine Turns of Heaven Luo Slash - Two Turns!" Qin Lang shouted in his heart, turned his body, turned again after one turn, and slashed down with the power of two rotations, and an endless sword shadow appeared at dusk, enveloping all the remaining ten savage apes.

"Boom!"

A terrible loud noise rang out, and a cloud of blood mist filled the air, and the ten savage apes all died under the sword.

However, Qin Lang was also very uncomfortable, this blow consumed a lot of his body, and the spiritual power in his body was also consumed a lot in this battle, and his body began to become weak.

There were fewer and fewer people around to fight, and there were still more than a hundred of them in that group of beasts at a glance.

"Damn, is this the power of the beast herd, hundreds of beasts are attacking together, who can resist it!" Qin Lang sighed in his heart, "If it becomes thousands, what kind of situation will it be?"

Thinking of that scene, Qin Lang's face turned pale, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, and he concentrated on facing the crisis in front of him.

Lansri rushed to the front, tangled with several panthers.

The black panther is famous for its speed, and it is difficult for ordinary spirit masters and swordsmen to catch up, and the strength of the black panther is not small, and its sharp claws are a deadly weapon.

But here, in addition to these black panthers, there are also six white tigers that are extremely terrifying.

The white tiger is not as fast as the black panther, but its strength is far exceeded, and the danger is slightly higher.

Leopards and tigers have always been the best among beasts, and their strength is at least equivalent to that of high-level sword cultivation, and among spirit beasts, the level of such spirit beasts is often not low.

At this moment, the six white tigers acted separately, like a tiger entering a flock, and launched a terrible hunt, and many townspeople had already become their belly food.

"Stop those six brutes!"

"Damn it, kill them!"

Several mercenaries surrounded the six white tigers with red eyes, these people were not weak, but unfortunately their bodies had been severely depleted, and the outcome was unpredictable. (To be continued......)
