Chapter Seventy-Six: The Chaos Zone
A strange and fishy wind suddenly blew in the darkness, and before the others could react, El's wild instincts gave a warning signal of danger. He jerked his head back, his eyes glowing blue, and saw a group of monsters with wings and claws flying silently from the darkness.
"Watch out there!" El could barely scream, whipping out the Dragon's Tooth Bow with his backhand, and the arrow slashed through the torches beside him, shooting out with a string of sparks. I heard a strange cry of "quack", and the monster that rushed to the front fluttered its wings and fell to the bottom of the cliff. Through the flash of fire, everyone also saw the true face of that monster.
It was a gargoyle-like monster with demonic features, wings four meters outstretched, and sharp claws on its hands and feet. Seeing that their whereabouts were exposed, the monsters let out a sharp scream, and their speed suddenly accelerated and pounced.
The Isttalon warrior erected the tower shield at the first order, and stretched out the spear from the gap in the tower shield, and the team of three hundred people instantly turned into a huge hedgehog, and the mountain hunter with a bow and arrow hid under the tower shield, squinted his eyes and began to lock on the trace of the monster. There was darkness outside, and there was no way to start, but as long as these monsters dared to break through the defenses of the tower shield, a deadly counterattack awaited them.
Compared to the well-trained Isttalon warriors, the robbers reacted much worse, and they were not lacking in experience in sneak attacks and counter-sneak attacks, but they couldn't do it in this hellish place. When the monster pounced on the team from the darkness, there were immediately heavy casualties. Some people can't dodge being grabbed by the monster and dragged out and disappear into the darkness, while others subconsciously roll on the ground, although they dodge the monster's claws, but accidentally fall off the cliff.

However, the robbers who can get here are not ordinary characters, and they have experienced several attacks in the first layer of ruins, and even the robbers who came in for the first time are mentally prepared, and gradually show a fighting style that is not afraid of death. The monster's attack caused only a moment of confusion at first, and it soon became a dogfight that the robbers excelled at.
The means of fighting bandits are unscrupulous, and many veteran robbers have all kinds of strange and vicious things hidden in their bodies, and their insidiousness is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Elle fired several arrows in a row to hit five monsters, and just after breathing a sigh of relief, he turned around and saw that one of the monsters was entangled in the wings of a sling, and fell down with a twist.
There are even more robbers with strong personalities, who start to go crazy as soon as they enter the combat state. A skinny robber, relying on his dexterity, jumped on the back of a monster, stabbed himself bloody despite the bone spurs on its back, gritted his teeth and stabbed the monster in the back of the head, and then they fell off the cliff together.
The golden sword light flashed again, splitting the monster in mid-air in half. Roger rushed to the edge of the cliff with a golden scimitar in his hand, and one person ** supported the protection within twenty meters of the circumference. His eyes swept over the front and back of the group, and he quickly measured it in his heart, and shouted, "Keep going! Don't get entangled with these monsters!"
Elger saw more clearly than Roger, and calculated more accurately, there were nearly fifty monsters attacking this wave, and in the deeper darkness, more monsters were coming. Humans must rely on flame lighting to walk in the dark, but this lighting also provides the clearest beacon for the monsters in the darkness.
In the city area of the first layer of ruins, only nearby monsters can see the fire due to the barrier of buildings. But on one side of this road is a cliff, and on the other side is endless darkness, I don't know how many monsters will be attracted by the firelight, if you stay here, it is equivalent to killing yourself.
"This is a mutant Nightmare, a Scout in the Legion of Hell's Demons. But the Nightmare I know of are at least ten times more vicious than this thing, and they also have the ability 'Howl of Terror'...... This is probably also due to the fact that the demonic power here is not replenished, so they have not been able to evolve to a mature form. ”
After carefully examining the monster's corpse, Lolana leaned over to El's side and whispered a report.
"Should this be good news?" El lifted the Nightmare corpse to the bottom of the cliff with a kick, waving his hand to signal the troops behind him to speed up their march. The robbers in front had already begun to trot under Roger's command, and at the same time the torches that had been lit were half extinguished, leaving only a few people who could barely see the road. It seems that he is determined to let the team pass this dangerous road quickly, even if it costs some people to slip and slip.
"It's good news or it's bad news. The good news is that the demonic power here is not replenished and becomes lifeless, and the demons born from it will not be able to fully evolve, and the enemies we face will be weaker than expected. As for the bad news...... This should be the last deal we enjoy on the first floor of the ruins. Lolana grinned and whispered.
"What's the difference between what you say and what you don't?" El asked angrily, rolling his eyes.
"I just wanted to warn you not to underestimate the dangers of the second layer of ruins. Lolana tugged at the corner of El's coat and shrank to the side of the cliff, and whispered, "The losses suffered by this team so far are acceptable, and even then Roger has to seek help from both us and the Night's Watch, which means that the danger of the second layer of ruins will be far greater than we can imagine."
After passing through the first layer of ruins, El's troops had actually suffered little losses, which gave him a vague feeling in his heart that it was nothing more than that. It was only after Lolana's reminder that he suddenly realized how serious the illusion he had generated.
Roger spent a lot of money to hire Isttalon warriors, not so that he could bring people over for dinner. So far, the Istaron warriors have not had the opportunity to fully show their strength, which means that there must be a presence on the road ahead that needs to be dealt with with with all their might.
The road was long but had an end, and it was only when the party reached the entrance to the second level of the ruins that El truly felt what Roger meant by chaos.
If until then, El, a semi-literate person, had a literal understanding of the "rules of order", but now he was finally able to deepen his understanding. Because in this place, he clearly felt the fading of the rules of order.
The real reason why the second layer of the ruins of the ancient city-state has sunk deeper into the ground is that the order in this land has been replaced by the forces of chaos. From here, the rules of order in the human world were completely broken, and they were replaced by the source of chaos from hell.
El raised his hand and clenched his fists, only to find that he could not feel the strength of his muscles. He looked back and saw that Lorana's face was changing, and the beautiful girl had become hideous, as if she was going to choose someone to devour.
His perception was distorted. (Go read OM) (Jiangsu.com)
