25. Modify runes
In front of the stone gate of the stone mound.
Sergeant Mars and his party leaned against the door, panting.
There was a terrible battle just now.
More than thirty rampaging stone mound spirits surrounded Mars and them.
Penetrating, biting, snatching cold touch.
The forked lightning released by the lightning spores couldn't stop this group of crazy bound spirits at all.
It was a suicide attack.
The spirits that surrounded Sergeant Mars and the others were all wiped out in the lightning, but the human side also paid a terrible price.
Three sergeants were killed in battle, and the living were exhausted.
"Guys, hold on."
Sergeant Mars reached into his pocket and pulled out an all-metal syringe.
Without hesitation, he inserted the needle into his neck and pushed the piston hard, injecting an unknown color potion into his body.
His face twitched with pain, but the fatigue was rapidly receding.
At the same time, the hair on the back of his head appeared a few gray strands in a short period of time.
"Inject cell division promoters, guys. Otherwise, we won't have a chance to stop the Death Society spies. ”
With Sergeant Mars as an example, the surviving sergeants also injected themselves with combat potions that burned their lives in exchange for physical strength, energy, and rapid recovery from injuries.
A sergeant coughed while clutching his chest:
"Captain, Sin 079 and Sin 888 didn't keep up... They estimate that there is more luck and less luck... We'll have to get our hands on the Rune Stick in the hands of the Death Society Spy, it's our only hope of destroying the Necromantic Rune... I'm willing to be the first to try to destroy Necromantic Runes! ”
"No, soldier, even if someone had to pay for the destruction of the Necromantic Rune, that person would be me in the first place."
Mars smiled bitterly and said:
"Alas, who would have thought that Sinner No. 039 would be a spy of the Death Society?! This guy actually knows necromantic runes! What a damn one! What the hell did he do to the stone mound, how could he make this group of bound spirits fall into a state of madness"
At the thought of what the Death Society spy had done, Sergeant Mars's eyes were a little more angry:
"How did those bastards in MI2 verify the identity of the criminals? I actually let a Death Society spy get in..."
When the sergeants heard this, they cursed in low voices.
"You're right, Captain, the guys from MI2 are going to kill us, what the hell are they going to eat!"
"MI2 didn't even find out the true identity of Soldier 039, so they stuffed him into our troops... What a bunch of dereliction bastards! ”
"I can't wait to settle accounts with them now..."
Seeing that his teammates' complexions were rapidly improving and their strength was getting stronger and stronger, Sergeant Mars clenched his fists and said:
"Alright, guys, let's get enough rest, let's move forward."
"Wait a minute, wait for me~"
The cry came from the poisonous fog filled with red light.
The sergeants raised their short-barreled rifles.
Others aim the lightning spores in the direction of the sound.
"Don't shoot, it looks like Jarvis's voice."
Mars shuddered with excitement, and his resolute face was filled with joy.
But he still maintained due vigilance in his eyes, and did not immediately put down the firearm in his hand.
"It's me, Captain, don't shoot, it's me!"
Li Nuo ran over with a snort, his body was blue and purple, and his elbow bulged out with an obvious swollen bag, looking miserable.
Li Nuo waved the rune stick in his hand and shouted happily to the sergeants:
"Thank goodness I finally found you! The poisonous fog made me dizzy and almost lost. ”
"Don't come here yet!"
Mars raised the muzzle of his gun, the joy on his face fleeting, and a hint of thought in his eyes.
Seriously, the previous series of things were too urgent.
So much so that he and the sergeants' attention was all on the Death Society spy and the stone mound binding spirit, and they couldn't find time to pay attention to Li Nuo and Sinner 079.
At this time, Sergeant Mars realized that his last impression of Li Nuo was the moment when he ordered all the spies to be pursued.
After this, what happened to Li Nuo, Sergeant Mars has no memory at all...
"Jarvis, how did you and Sinner 079 fall behind while we were chasing the Death Society spies? Why are you the only one catching up? What about Sin Soldier 079? ”
Li Nuo stopped three meters away from Sergeant Mars, not embarrassed by the other party's questioning.
On the contrary, it was Sergeant Mars's vigilance that caused Leno to raise his rating a bit.
Li Nuo bent down against his chest, gasped a few times, and shook his hand at Mars, with a thick fear in his tone:
"It's so thrilling, sir, it's too thrilling. As soon as you started chasing the Spy, Sin 079 secretly stopped me and punched me hard. ”
Li Nuo rolled over his sleeves and showed the sergeants the bulging bag on his elbow:
"This girl has a grudge against me because I quarreled with him before I left. He's a brainless fool who seeks revenge on the territory of the undead..."
"And then?" Mars slowly lowered his gun, showing his trust in Lino.
"Later, he and I attracted three stone mound binders. Maybe it's because he's bigger and has more flesh, and the stone mound spirit is chasing him. I'll take the opportunity to rush to you. He picks up your pistol and shoots at the binder and me. Before the mist turned red, I had already run some distance. After the poisonous mist turned red, it was as if he was dead, killed by the Bound Spirits. I didn't dare to stay, so I ran with all my strength to get to the stone mound. ”
After Li Nuo finished speaking, he shook his head happily:
"It's good that the three stone mound binding spirits didn't come to chase me, otherwise I would definitely die..."
Sergeant Mars waved his hand at his teammates:
"Put down the gun, he should be telling the truth."
Sergeant Mars looked at Lenovo:
“... To be honest, you're lucky, those three stone mound bound spirits should have gone to besiege Sergeant Alvin. After all, Sergeant Alvin's army poses a lot more threat to the stone mound than you. ”
Sergeant Mars waved his hand and led the team into the stone mound:
"Keep up, Jarvis... Keep up and don't fall behind. ”
Li Nuo breathed a sigh of relief that he had avoided questioning, and followed the team into the stone mound.
This place is the size of two basketball courts.
From the outside, it is about the height of a three-story building.
Behind the door were three narrow corridors leading to nowhere, and the walls on either side were covered with necromantic runes.
These necromantic runes glowed with a dark red glow, illuminating the corridors and making the atmosphere of the place extremely evil.
Sergeant Mars frowned slightly and scanned the corridor, unable to find any traces left by the Death Society spies.
He turned his head to look at Li Nuo:
"Jarvis, you're tasked with modifying necromantic runes on the walls with rune sticks. Get started now, we'll cover you. Don't move too fast, safety first. ”
"Okay, I'll do it."
Li Nuo nodded, his gaze quickly swept over the necromantic rune.
He has already deconstructed this stone mound 100%.
At this time, looking at the necromantic rune on the wall, he had a feeling of knowing it.
The place where the defendant was killed and the spy was modified by him at a glance.
Li Nuo frowned, pretending to be thinking hard.
He raised the rune stick in his hand, deliberately hesitating, and poked it against the wall.
When the sergeants saw his actions, they immediately stayed away from him, to prevent being affected by a possible "death storm"...
Li Nuo himself is very confident in himself.
He was so engrossed in his work that he had changed the necromantic rune that had been modified by the Dead Society spy to its original appearance.
"'When resentment arises, we must repay it with passion and fervor'
“… No, no, no, that's not how the sentence is written.
"The original text should be 'Accept it with silence and patience.'"
"And this phrase 'Resentment is the seed that will blossom into furious flowers'... This sentence was also modified by the Spy, and the original text reads, 'It will bear gloomy fruits'. ”
The contact of the rune stick scratched the wall a few times, and the necromantic rune was modified by Li Nuo.
As soon as Li Nuo did this, the light inside and outside the stone mound immediately changed.
The red light, which symbolized the bending spirit's entry into a berserk state, vanished.
The screams of the Bound Spirits when they attacked were gone.
After the red light disappeared, the visual field improved.
In the distance, Sergeant Alvin and the soldiers let out a cheer, filled with the joy and excitement of the rest of their lives.
As if they had lost their strength, the vicious bound spirits swayed weakly in the air, no longer ferocious and swift as before.
The Imperial soldiers could easily crush the slow-moving undead by shooting a fork of lightning.
The weakness of the Binding Spirit should be caused by the after-effects of the "Fever Order".
"Haha! And it worked! ”
Sergeant Mars shook his fist in delight.
The sergeant beside him had the same look.
