Chapter 179: Blackbeard's Revenge
"Lord Castle, we are probably in big trouble. Regel stood by the pool and looked at the minotaur swimming in the water and said, "We received a distress signal from outside Thunder Bluff City, and the entire squad of heavily armed monster warriors is estimated to be dead, but according to our intelligence, there is only one enemy. ”
"Hu ......" The minotaur who had been under the water climbed onto the edge of the pool and sat down, took the towel handed by the succubus in a black bikini, wiped the water on his face, looked at Regel and said, "Is there only one enemy? Do you know what race the enemy belongs to? In my impression, Elan should not have such a strong force." ”
"We don't know the exact details yet, but from the latest information we've got, the intruder is at least a humanoid creature whose entire body is covered in black robes. Reagor shook his head and said, "I've sent Matthew to contact the soldiers in the city to check it out, but I'm worried that something else will go wrong, so I'm here to report it to you." ”
Hearing Regal's words, Mo Yan thought for a moment, now that the entire Elam is shielded by the power of the goddess, those Chosen Warriors outside of Elam should not be able to enter here. And the other party used a black robe to hide his appearance, indicating that he didn't want others to see his appearance.
There should be three possibilities for this, the first is that he is very famous among the Salts, such as wanted criminals or other dangerous people, etc., and he is afraid of being recognized, so he has been hiding his appearance. The second is that his appearance betrays his ethnicity, or some other special easily recognizable feature. And the third is simply afraid of light.
The first possibility is relatively low, because there are no wanted criminals or celebrities in the entire Elam who can kill a fully armed monster squad alone. In other words, the use of black robes is to disguise certain characteristics or fear of light, and these two situations are not normal human beings.
"Lucy. The minotaur said to the heavily armed girl standing not far away, "You and Regal go out of the city to see what it is, and if it's a particularly powerful creature, don't fight with him and leave it for me to deal with." By the way, cover yourself with a cloak when you go out so that no one can see you. ”
The girl, who had completely betrayed the gods, nodded and left the rooftop pool of the White House to prepare. Regger heard what the minotaur had said, saluted him slightly, and followed the girl away. Having witnessed the battle on the walls of the Council City from afar, Reagor knew that the Minotaur had assigned him to be the chosen warrior of the god of war.
I don't know why she's grown limbs that were severed by the Minotaurs, but she doesn't seem to be weak now, and with her help, it should be enough to deal with what happened.
At this time, the well-armed monsters of the brigade drove out of the Thunder Cliff and ran through the large fields outside the city towards the forest in the distance. There were only a few SS men in the ranks, and this kind of frontal combat was not the means of the SS. They were in the ranks because they needed to figure out who the people who had invaded so close to Thunder Bluff were, and it was their duty and obligation.
The dense forest could not stop the advance of these monsters, and the herds of giant tooth demon dogs, with white spit in their mouths, scattered in all directions and ran wild at the front of the team as the troops seeking the enemy. If an enemy is spotted, they immediately howl and guide the entire unit in the direction of the enemy.
And the monster legion, as the entire battle group, is not as simple as it used to be. The weak goblins have been completely eliminated from the Legion, and the kobolds, lizardmen, and gnolls have been added as cannon fodder, and they are more intelligent and brave than the goblins.
And these cannon fodder, which had a large number, were divided into two parts, one part of which was closely chasing after the rear of the Giant Tooth Demon Dog, and it was the first time to rush to the battlefield to entangle the enemy's death troops. The second part is with the main force of the Minotaur, the Horned Demon, the Werewolf, and the Three-Headed Basilisk. Depending on the situation, the commander of the Monster Legion will assign them to be responsible for escaping from the palace or using them to drain the enemy's stamina.
Soon the Tooth Dog smelled blood and ran in one direction. Behind them, kobolds and other monsters in leather armor drew their weapons that were not excellent in craftsmanship and materials, and followed closely behind the Giant Tooth with all their might, letting out a strange howl and rushing in the direction where the demon dog was running.
"I also want a horse that I can ride in the forest. Matthew pulled out the short knife at his waist, looked at the knight next to him who was riding a horse and galloping in the forest, and said, "By the way, do the headless horsemen have such a horse? ”
The Headless Horseman, who was ready to attack, ignored the questions of the humans around her, and she was not obligated to answer such topics that were not related to battle. Many times Serna couldn't figure out why there were so many humans in the entire city, when her owner was a monster.
Why would there be so many people to serve under him, something that would not have happened in her original boss's castle. Although the Lich was also transformed from human mages, he was not at all warm to these former kinds, and in his eyes those humans were just important materials for experiments.
"No corpses?" said an SS soldier looking at the armor fragments and weapons that were so clean that there was no trace of blood in the battle arena surrounded by monsters, and the neatly cut trees that had been cut to the ground. Even Matthew had never seen such a strange situation, and it was estimated that it was impossible for the most professional personnel to clean the entire battlefield like this.
"It smells of blood, but there is no blood in sight. Matthew walked to the middle of the field and crouched down, looked at the traces of the tiny insect feet and said, "This is almost all over the insect crawl marks of the battle, is our enemy not a humanoid creature but a large number of bugs?"
The toothed dogs with a keen sense of smell sniffed around the field, and finally all came to the bottom of a large tree. Watching the tall tree roar, they already knew what was hiding in the dense foliage.
"What a sensitive nose. "The strange sound of the insect chirp made all humans shudder, as if countless insects were crawling slowly on their backs. A man in a black robe seemed to have merged with the trees, and his posture was unusually natural to stand above the trees and the ground at this level, looking at the team of monster warriors below.
All the gnolls took out their crossbows and aimed at the black-robed men in the trees, waiting for the order. As for the negotiation, Serna did not intend to do it, she received an order to assist the SS in the investigation, so all she had to wait for was for the humans around her to negotiate or directly order the attack.
"Are you so unsightly, you need to wrap yourself so tightly. Matthew looked up at the man in the tree with a bright smile on his face and said, "Since you didn't flee after killing everyone, it means that you are very confident in your own strength." We people are already a pile of corpses in your eyes, so what if we can see you?"
Hearing Matthew's words, the black-robed man jumped down from the tree, and just as he was about to land, a sword shadow flashed from his robe. In an instant, he beheaded more than a dozen giant tooth demon dogs surrounded by trees, clearing a spacious place enough to settle down, and the eyes under the black robe stared at Matthew and said, "I am the strongest...... No one will be stronger than me, your minotaurs have taken my important treasure......"
"Lord of the City, what did you steal from you?" Matthew pursed his lips and looked at the black-robed man and continued, "I've never seen him rob anything, although he instructed me to steal something. Your voice sounds weird, you don't think you're human, right?"
"People...... Hehe...... I'm not that weak thing anymore. The black robe was slowly taken off by the person in front of him, revealing the body under the robe. The black-robed man was wearing a strangely shaped armor, and countless black bugs climbed on it, and he seemed to be standing in the middle of the bug pile.
None of the movements used relied on his feet, but on the black bugs crawling under his feet. This suit of armor is covered with a lot of traces of battle, the armor and helmet of the left hand are no longer there, the exposed gray arm is as bloodless as a dead corpse, and the old face like skin and bones has a black beard that is quite eye-catching.
Hanging from his waist was a long black sword, the entire sword without a scabbard. The seventy-two gems on the sword emitted an eerie glow. Some black silk threads were in it, making these tiny gems look like eyeballs, staring at the monsters and humans in front of them.
"It's a very novel look. Matthew lifted the short sword in his hand and looked at Blackbeard, who revealed his true body, and said with a smile: "I didn't know anyone would have such fun with bugs, so...... Now that I know your appearance, and the festival between you and the lord of the city. Then we should be able to find out who you are, so...... You can die with peace of mind. ”
As soon as Matthew's words fell, the monster was like a wild horse that had been stimulated, and all the weapons in his hands rushed towards the disgusting armor. Blackbeard in front of him looked at all the monsters, a strange smile appeared on his face without any flesh, and the long sword at his waist instantly appeared in his hand.
He had been relying on the movement of insects, and he stepped out of his legs and turned into an afterimage to shuttle through the group of monsters, spraying blood like rain everywhere he went, and his stumps flying like fallen leaves......
