Chapter Twenty-Three: The Last Stand

It wasn't until evening that the seven of them quietly came out of the cave and headed straight for the waterfall.

Along the way, the seven men walked through the woods as fast as they could, and to tell the truth, they were now like blind men, who had no idea where the mercenaries were, and who might have run ahead of them, and who could only try their luck and hope to escape this fate.

"Stop ......"

Long Yi, who rushed to the front, suddenly waved his hand and motioned for everyone to stop.

Everyone gathered around him, and saw Long Yi pointing ahead: "Everyone be careful, there is someone ahead." ”

Following the direction of this guy's finger, everyone clearly saw that about 300 meters ahead, there were indeed people hiding in the grass.

Although the seat chosen by this goods is very hidden, it still can't escape Ryuichi's eyes, and there is another one in the tree, which seems to be an archer.

"I guess the mercenaries put out the guard posts, and it seems that they really ran ahead of us. One soldier gritted his teeth, not knowing what he was thinking.

"There's nothing surprising about that. Twilight lowered her voice: "They also have maps in their hands, of course they know which way to go, and they are closest to the temporary stronghold of the Holy Spirit Pavilion, maybe they are on the edge of the waterfall at this time, waiting for us to take the bait." ”

"Your Royal Highness, three young masters, you should now return the way you came, find another way back to the temporary base, remember, you must be careful. ”

"Captain Long, what are you doing here, of course you are going to go together. He asked silently.

"The enemy is at hand, and I will avenge my brother who died at their hand. ”

"No, it's too dangerous. ”

Silent hurriedly stopped, and was about to say more, but was pulled by Chu Yan beside him.

"Captain Long, at the moment we are grasshoppers on a rope, and no one can do without anyone, so it's better to do this. ”

Saying that, Chu Yan thought for a while, and then said: "After a while, we quietly touched it, and the archer on the tree was handed over to the four of us." ”

"You guys, can you have it? It's not a joke. Long Yi couldn't believe how these four hairy boys could get rid of that archer.

"You don't have to worry about this, after we do it later, you will do it again, and that's it. ”

Dropping a word, Chu Yan took the other three to touch it, and Long Yiyi wanted to stop it, but it was too late, so he had to take his team members and outflank him from the other side.

In a quarter of an hour, both sides reached the ideal position.

I saw Chu Yan turn his hand, and a pure black longbow suddenly appeared, and there were many simple patterns engraved on the bow body, and it looked like it was a few years old.

Speaking of this thing, Chu Yan has been practicing for some years.

This is the weapon that Silent Ruyan is best at, and until now, the Holy Spirit Pavilion still retains her record, at a distance of two hundred meters, three arrows in a row hit the bull's-eye.

"Twilight, make some movement and get the archers' attention. ”

"Huh?" The fat man swallowed his saliva: "Brother, are you sure? This is fifty meters to say the least, if you miss, the fat man's life can be explained." ”

"What so much nonsense, don't hurry up. ”

As she spoke, Twilight was already pinching this guy's ass hard.

"Huh...... Twilight, what the hell are you looking for?"

As if electrocuted, Twilight bounced up as fast as it could, breaking the otherwise quiet night.

The archer and the mercenary were stunned for a moment, but when they saw this, Long Yi immediately rose into the air, like an arrow off the string, and a cold blade had already cut through his neck.

At the same time, Chu Yan had already stood up, skillfully taking his bow and arrows, the arrows made of pure steel turned into a silver lightning bolt in the dark night, with the sound of breaking wind and the breath of death, penetrating the archer's eyeballs with great precision.

Secretly relieved, Long Yi praised the performance of these four teenagers, and now he really regarded them as comrades-in-arms, comrades-in-arms who depended on each other in life and death.

Long Yi and the other team members quickly changed into their clothes, as if they wanted to touch them, and served the remaining five people in one pot.

Not only that, but he also detonated one of Chu Yan's pills, and then glanced at everyone: "Me and the sixth child will touch it now, you will deal with it on the periphery, and if the situation is not good, leave quickly." ”

Without waiting for everyone to nod, the two of them had already run out extremely quickly, and had just detonated the pill, the purpose of which was to startle the snake and make these mercenaries think that the rescue force of the Holy Spirit Pavilion had arrived.

This trick really worked, and after only running for more than a hundred meters, Long Yi found that five figures appeared on the opposite side, which were the remaining mercenaries.

"What's the situation?" Seeing that the clothes were on his side, the person on the other side relaxed his vigilance.

But Long Yi didn't speak, and one of the team members of the team still ran with all their might, seeing that there were still more than 20 meters, the two of them took out several daggers at the same time and flew out.

At this time, these mercenaries can be regarded as heavy losses, two members of the team died, one was pierced in the lung, and fell to the ground with serious injuries, and the middle-aged man led by the other escaped.

"Bang ......"

With a dull sound, a dagger with a scorching flame actually pierced through the thick trunk of the tree, and at the same time pierced the chest of Long Yi's comrade-in-arms, and another person fell.

I have to say that this hand-made Long Yi sighed to himself, and while changing his position, he shouted loudly: "Lao Jiu, take them away, go as far as possible." ”

Seeing this, the middle-aged man smiled, knowing that Chu Yan was not far away, so he motioned to the only remaining team member, outflanked him from the side, and then laughed loudly.

"Brother, everyone is here to eat, as long as you hand over Chu Yan's kid, I will let you and the others live. ”

"Less nonsense, it's not certain who will die. ”

The dragon turned sharply, and the dagger in his hand shot out, knocking down the outflanking mercenary.

Then, just as he was about to change his position again, he unexpectedly the cold sword blade was pressed against his throat, and the middle-aged man had already rushed over.

Long Yi was secretly shocked, he didn't expect this person's cultivation to be so high, at least he was also a master of the transcendent realm.

"Click......"

The middle-aged man lifted his foot and slammed it on Ryuichi's knees, his legs already broken.

"What's the matter, what else do you have to say now, Lao Tzu will bear you first, and then you can go out and be happy. ”

"Damn, if you come here, don't try to get out alive. Long Yi glared at his eyes, his eyes bloodshot, and he took out his dagger and stabbed it.

"Click......

The middle-aged man stepped on Long Yi's arm again, then smiled, and said in a strange manner: "Chu Yan, I know you didn't leave, if you don't want him to die, come out quickly." ”

The five people in the distance were stunned, and now they finally knew who these mercenaries were sneaking in for at the risk of their lives.

"Your Royal Highness, the three young masters, you better hurry up, the farther you go, the better, if we all die, you will only be on your own. ”

Seeing that the long sword was already in Lao Jiu's hand, the four of them knew what he wanted to do, but going out like this was tantamount to killing himself.

"Don't worry, there are five of us, and if we plan it properly, we can definitely kill him. ”

Chu Yan looked unusually calm, but in fact, he was very nervous in his heart, and after thinking about it carefully, he finally had an idea.

"In this way, after a while, I and Twilight, and Lao Jiu went out first, and Silent and Twilight quietly went into the water, and when the time was right, I slashed him with a sword. ”

"This ...... Will this work?" said Twilight with some concern, "If we miss, you're in danger." Why don't we go out together, brother, you quietly go into the water, see the right time, and kill him with one arrow. ”

"Yes, yes, what Lao Chen said this time is reliable, our brother's archery skills are not to be said. Not only Du Chen, but the others also nodded again and again, convinced of Chu Yan's archery technique.

"It's useless, these mercenaries are targeting me, and you can't drag him out at all. ”

"Brother, you are wrong, they have not seen you, at most they have seen a portrait, can you still recognize this black light?"

As he spoke, he took a deep breath: "It's decided, you prepare first, and we'll go out." ”

Chu Yan didn't say anything more, but quickly touched the river and quietly dived over.

However, it is already very close to the waterfall, and the water is relatively fast.

Chu Yan struggled, and finally stabilized his body under the support of a dry tree trunk, and the tip of the arrow made of stainless steel, glowing with a cold luster, aimed at the middle-aged man's head.

"Okay, good, I didn't expect you little ghosts to be quite righteous. ”

The four of them had already come to the opposite side of the middle-aged man, only to see him smile faintly, carefully looked at these people, and couldn't help frowning: "What about Chu Yan, you bastards, do you want to die for that kid?"

"Don't worry, Chu Yan has been scared away, why don't we talk about the conditions. Silent Ran was fearless, stepped forward, and said, "In this way, as long as you let us go, I promise that I will not blame the past, and I will give you double the price, how about it?"

"Very tempting conditions, but you are destined to be disappointed, it is estimated that Chu Yan's kid has not gone far yet, I will kill you first, and then ......"

Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, Chu Yan had already made a move, and the arrow made of stainless steel turned into a cold light, as dazzling as lightning in the dark clouds, and flew over in an instant, heading straight for his temple.

However, they still underestimated their opponent, after all, the middle-aged man was a fifth-order master of the Transcendent Realm, and he saw that the arrow was about to pierce his head, but unexpectedly, this guy tilted his head and miraculously dodged it.

"Damn, I'll fight with you. ”

Lao Jiu was the first to react, seized the opportunity, and shot out three daggers, stabbing into the vital point of the middle-aged man, only to see him stumble a few steps, and finally fall.
