Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Bunch of Fools
In the dense forest, the sinners walked in a long line.
In front of and behind them, mercenaries with guns followed.
"Don't be afraid, keep up with us, we will protect you." Smith said.
"Thank you!" A man in patched clothes looked at Smith gratefully.
Smith smiled: "No thanks, this is what we should do." ”
"Keep up, keep up!" The mercenaries urged.
The team walked for about two hours, and some people said that they were tired and had to rest.
"What are you resting on, hurry up!" One of the mercenaries said impatiently, picking up a gun and pointing it at the man.
The man was startled and looked at the mercenary in horror.
Smith walked over and pressed the muzzle of the mercenary's gun with his hand: "What are you doing?!" ”
The mercenary was stunned for a moment, then reacted, put away his gun, and turned around.
Smith said gently to the man, "Don't be afraid, he is worried about your safety, after all, there are often monsters and demons in this wilderness area. ”
"Oh, it's okay, then I won't rest, let's go quickly." The man hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble!" ”
"No hassle. Then keep walking. Smith waved his hand.
So the team braved the rain and kept walking.
After walking for more than an hour, people found dry bones on both sides of the narrow road from time to time, and there was some commotion in the procession.
"Don't panic, everyone, it's almost there." Smith reassured.
Finally, the team entered an open field, where more than a thousand people gathered.
The person in front of you noticed the anomaly.
The road ahead was impassable, blocked by barbed wooden fences.
The people around also noticed the anomaly, and a large net was erected one after another, just enclosing the open space.
Smith and the others retreated to the back of the line.
"When you arrive, this is the settlement, the destination of the sinners of Great Xia." Smith said with a smile, pulling out his flare gun and firing it into the sky.
Bang! ——
The red flares rose in the rain, and they were very glaring.
People panicked, looked at each other, and riots broke out.
Someone ran out, but stepped on the rope net and was hoisted into the air.
Others tried to return the way they came, but were shot and smashed into a sieve by the mercenaries.
The blood flowed on the ground and mixed with the rain to form a stream.
Boom Boom! ——
Explosions were heard from a distance, and large trees fell one after another.
In the smoke, a passage was blown out, connecting the clearing to a small dirt mountain.
People looked in horror over the hill and saw a black-red demon with bat-wings crawling out of it.
"Devil, devil!" Screams and shouts mingled.
The gunshots rang out again, more people fell, and there was more blood.
The smell of blood wafted to the noses of the batwing demons, and they finally couldn't bear it anymore after being surrounded in the cave for more than ten days.
"!!"
A piercing cry rang out, and the batwing demons flew out like a tidal wave, heading straight for the people in the clearing.
The mercenaries retreated into the dense forest, ready for heavy firepower.
The batwing demon screamed and flew towards the people in front of him.
They open their mouths full of sharp teeth, and their blood-red eyes are bloodthirsty and brutal.
Burst!
The claws pop out, hooking men and women, and digging out children's hearts.
Blood was pouring out, and stumps were flying.
Smith stared at all of this coldly, and he waited patiently for the batwing demons to keep gathering.
The fuses for artillery and explosives are ready, just waiting for the order to detonate.
Suddenly there was a gunshot in the demon's lair.
Smith furrowed an eyebrow.
"The head of the regiment started early?" The mercenary next to him asked.
"Probably," Smith said, "he always had a lot of patience. ”
"Hey, indeed." The mercenary said flatteringly, "If you want me to say, you are still suitable to be the head of the regiment." ”
Smith's eyes changed slightly, but he didn't refute.
Bang bang bang! ——
Gunfire intensified in the distance.
Smith sensed something was wrong.
The sound of those guns was dull and messy, not like the guns of a mercenary group.
"Deputy Commander!" A shout rang out.
Smith stood up suddenly, his eyes cold: "What's the matter?!" ”
"Someone attacked the regimental commander, they !!" The man, covered in blood, shouted in panic as he put down the regimental commander on his back.
Smith hurried over, crouched down, looked at the regimental commander, and took his hand.
The regiment commander said with difficulty: "Smith, it's an unknown force, there are a lot of them......
"Poor weaponry, right?" Smith looked at the regimental leader's injuries.
Several bullets passed through the body, but did not hit the heart.
The leader of the peak of the third order should be able to survive.
"Yes, Smith, you have the most people here, go and kill them, damn it!" The regiment commander scolded.
Smith nodded, looked up and said to the man next to him, "Go and call the medics!" ”
"Yes!" The crowd scattered.
With a calm face, Smith pulled out his pistol, stuffed it into the wound of the regimental commander, aimed it in the direction of the heart, and pulled the trigger.
The gunfire was dull, and no one could hear anything unusual, except for the mercenary who came with the regiment commander on his back.
The mercenary's eyes widened, speechless, and when he recovered from the shock, Smith's bayonet stabbed him in the throat and pulled it out.
Bang!
The mercenary fell to the ground, staring dryly at the sky with wide eyes.
Smith put his pistol away and waited for the Medic to arrive.
The medics soon arrived, and they crouched down to examine the regimental commander's injuries, with grief on their faces.
"The head of the regiment didn't hold on, he died!" Smith burst into tears.
"Captain!" Everyone was saddened.
"Brothers, now is not the time to be sad!" Smith stood up suddenly, his eyes red, and pointed in the direction of the demon's lair, "Someone has attacked us, we have to avenge the regimental commander, now, listen to my command!" ”
"Okay, follow the deputy commander!" The crowd shouted.
The battle spread from the lair to the area.
Demons and mercenaries were attacked at the same time, and the enemies seemed to be scattered all over the mountain.
Smith's command was calm, but the line was shrinking.
"Who the hell is it?"
It was difficult to see the enemy in the dense forest, and Smith stood on the periphery of the clearing, his brow furrowed.
Suddenly, an explosion sounded on the other side of the clearing.
In the midst of the fireworks, several figures in coarse cloth clothes rushed out.
They shoot at the Batwing Demons, who continue to fall and die.
"Run behind us!" A grim-faced young man shouted at them.
The surviving sinners in the clearing hurried over.
"Look for death!"
Breaking into the clearing, they will inevitably face the fire of the mercenaries, who did not attack the mercenaries in the first place, but went to save some criminals, in Smith's opinion, this is a stupid act of death.
"Fire!" Smith brazenly ordered.
Bang bang bang!
A heavy machine gun hiding in the shadows spits out a fiery snake.
Boom Boom!
Several mortars also fired shells!
A man in coarse cloth fell with blood splattered on his body, but more escaped, forming a human wall, standing in front of the surviving sinners without fear of death, and not one of them flinched.
"What idiot?" Smith spat and jerked the fuse of the explosives buried in the field, "A bunch of fools!" ”
Boom Boom!
The sound of the explosion was deafening, and in the billowing flames, the figures in coarse cloth clothes were engulfed.
