Chapter 57: Attack on the Steep Slope
At noon the next day, in the Demon Hunter Guild, Watson and Marina and three other Demon Hunters who took the task together were getting together and didn't know what to do. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I activated the trap card, and Naraku's cave [I wonder if any friends remember this card?], and according to its effect, the minotaur you summoned to the field was destroyed...... If you lose Locke, this special monster card of yours will be mine, hahaha!"
"How do you have this card? I didn't have it when I played with you two days ago! Damn, Bellamy, you me!"
Wearing a red turban, the man named Bellamy flipped through the cards he had hidden for a long time on the table, watched a black vortex appear on the card, devoured a fist-sized minotaur on the opposite table, and then shoved the card into his pocket while pinching Locke's face on the opposite side and mocking loudly.
Around them sat Watson, Marina and Benjamin with a giant sword on his back, the five of them met in the guild, because they were all one mission, so they sat together after introducing each other, and their respective professions were Bellamy the gunsmith, Locke the sword and shield, and Benjamin the giant swordsman.
These people are now in the same situation as Watson and Marina, they are all strong, but they can't be promoted because of their qualifications, so they accepted this D-level cooperation mission, hoping to go further.
Rock and Bellamy, on the other hand, are now playing a card game that has recently become popular among professionals, and the wide variety of card types and different combinations of routines test their minds to make professionals quickly find fun in it.
Because the shops that make this kind of cards are a unified chain store, the rare cards among them are also popular among professionals.
The price of a rare card with outstanding effect remains high among professionals, and the card duel of gambling cards comes from this, all in all, this is the most popular combat method among professionals in the ring duel in recent times, at least Watson liked this card when he saw it, and he was intrigued by the simple and beautiful spell projection that can be activated with only a little input of energy, as well as the various tactics shown by Bellamy and Locke just now.
"Where do you buy these cards? They look good, and I'd like to try a pair. ”
After they finished the game, Watson spoke his mind.
"There are a lot of places that sell them, you can go to the Taobao market and look for it, I think there should be one there, but you can't have too many good cards in the same place, and if you want to make a deck of cards with a high win rate, you have to go to different places and collect them from the shops or players over there. ”
Bellamy ignored Locke's eyes that were about to breathe fire, turned his head to Watson and said, Locke next to him ignored him, and his whole person showed a gray and white color, silently put away the cards on his side, and looked at his monster card that had been taken away by Bellamy from time to time.
"Alright, who's going to play with me? I'm a mage deck, and I'm betting on the Dark Mage Girl!"
Marina pulled out a box from her mage robes and pulled out a set of cards that shone with various spells.
"Why do your cards glow like this without activating them, is it some rare class deck!"
"That's not it, I haven't been able to collect all the rare cards yet, right? I added these spell rays, pretty. ”
Constantly changing the spell effects on the cards, Marina looked around with a haughty face, wanting to see envy in the eyes of several people.
"In that case, I'm going to have to come up with a barrier deck, and I hope you don't cry when you get to, because it's a deck that no one has ever been able to beat. ”
Benjamin, who had been watching the duel between Bellamy and Locke in silence just now, suddenly made a look of vicissitudes and took out a set of earthy yellow cards from his arms, and a brownish-yellow glow representing the earth's attributes appeared on it from time to time.
"So this is also a special effect that you add with the energy you can use......
"Of course! A real man is to be as thick and vicissitudes as the earth. ”
"Actually, it's just that you look old......"
Watson, Bellamy, and Locke looked at each other, and they were right, Benjamin, a young man with a calm uncle's face, seemed to be a sullen young man.
"Looks like it's noon now, don't we still have a task to do? cards or something should wait until the mission is completed before continuing, you can find a chance to get together again, anyway, everyone has their own residence in Verdas, and there is no need to rush to divide the winner now. ”
After making a pause gesture, Watson glanced at the bleak sky outside and the occasional thunderbolt, then looked down at his watch and said to the crowd.
Everyone nodded in agreement, this kind of game is addictive, if you really start playing, it is estimated that no one cares about the time, and the agreement that should have gone to the assembly a long time ago is the best proof that the previous bet between Locke and Bellamy was forgotten.
Riding on the horses that were tied to the outside of the Demon Hunting Guild, he rushed to the Dongcheng District Garrison while the heavy rain had not yet fallen, and when he arrived, he found that more than 30 people in the garrison were already waiting outside.
"Contemptible Bernard, the leader of this operation, our target is a madhouse built in the west of Dongcheng District in the middle of the mountain, which has been confirmed to be a stronghold of the Hidden Snake Church, you are all elites of the Demon Hunting Guild know what you should do, I won't talk nonsense, since you have arrived, then we will set off immediately. ”
"Of course, we'll take care of our own side of the task, so don't worry. ”
Glancing at each other, the eldest sword and shield in the team, Sorlock, took a few steps forward with the reins of his horse and responded, Watson also saw Morrigan in the garrison team at this time, and nodded to each other as a greeting.
The Demon Hunters were unfamiliar with the direction of the madhouse, so the five Watson simply followed behind the garrison team, and the team of 40 people ran all the way out of the city, approaching the low hill where the madhouse was located.
Although there is a mountain in the name, it can only be regarded as a relatively tall and wide slope in the real sense, there is no rugged mountain road, only a dirt road leading to the top of the mountain, in fact, even the top of the mountain is quite flat and open, but it is a little desolate.
The location of the madhouse is also because of the above reasons, the land is cheap, the development is convenient, and it will not disturb the people, but these conditions seem to be very consistent with the Hidden Serpent Church's choice of strongholds, so the people living in the madhouse have become a group of crazy people in another sense.
Thundered!!
Thunder exploded in mid-air, and the rain fell and gradually expanded, and finally changed into a downpour, the summer rainstorm I believe everyone has experienced a lot, the dim sky and the fierce rain make people difficult to see.
In order to ensure the smooth progress of the mission, the people of the garrison seemed to be ready for heavy rain when they came out, and as soon as the rain fell from the sky, they quickly took out a large black raincoat and bright searchlights from the right side of the horse, ensuring that they could still move forward smoothly even in this weather condition.
Watson's side is not unprepared, and professionals will have one for things like raincoats no matter what the weather is, so there is no problem with waterproofing.
Because there is a police officer's searchlight in front to guide the direction, it will not leave the team, not to mention that most of the demon hunters have some special abilities.
Turn on the dark energy barrier to cover your face exposed under your raincoat, so that your eyes don't have to open and close to avoid the oncoming rain, and you have their own ways to look sideways at the other people.
Benjamin, Bellamy, and Locke also have a transparent barrier on their heads, and Marlena simply didn't even wear a raincoat, and directly wrapped herself in a spell barrier, not to mention the rain, not even the wind could blow in.
"The road is full of mud, everyone pay attention, control your horse and don't trip!"
After about 20 minutes, there was a sudden shout from the front, and after a while, the sound of the horses running under him was no longer the crisp sound of stepping on the gravel road, but the sound of clattering hooves smashing into the muddy water, and the slope of the road began to increase significantly, and the speed of everyone's progress inevitably decreased.
However, the difficulties were much more than that, and Watson was still thinking about whether to attach dark energy to the horse's hooves to completely eliminate the possibility of tripping in the mud, when several fires suddenly flashed in the desolate and sparse bushes next to him, accompanied by a burst of roaring.
"Enemy attack! Dismount! Defensive formation!"
The elite was worthy of being an elite, and almost at the same time as the shouts rang out, the elite officers immediately grabbed the reins, turned over and dismounted, and used the horses as a barrier to lean against the back to shoot at the place where the fire had previously emitted.
"Shall we do it?"
"No, the mission scroll clearly records the mission responsibilities that we need to bear, dealing with these gunmen is not within our mission, we just need to protect ourselves, dismount, Marina, can you expand your protective barrier?"
Watson didn't have the idea of helping others in this situation, rushing into the bushes to engage those unknown enemies, so he dismounted and followed the other three to decisively approach Marina, who had opened the barrier and kept retreating out of the range of the firefight, except for the gunsmith Bellamy holding two pistols and firing a few shots into the bushes from time to time, Locke and Benjamin did not move, they were also close combat with Watson, and the idea was similar.
"Rush forward! Destroy these Hidden Serpent Cultists!"
The person who can come out to make trouble at this time doesn't need to think about it, he knows who it is, Bernard is not ambiguous, and after judging the number of opponents for a while, he understands that this is just delaying the troops to prepare those people in the stronghold, so he immediately chooses to attack.
Five captain-level policemen rushed out of the team in an instant, jumped into the bushes in a few steps, and the sound of rain falling could not drown out the screams in the bushes.
"For the Church!"
With a terrible roar, several burly figures suddenly rushed out of the bushes!
PS: Recently, I want to introduce some new elements in the story, but it's a bit dry just to fight monsters and upgrades, I don't know how the cards are?
