62. Caught in a siege
They work well together, much better than cannibals with bad brains.
Lane mentally estimated how difficult his opponent would be.
Just now, just four people made a move, and they completely forced the witcher to the point that he had to eat a heavy hammer!
And there were more than 20 people who came to the prison area to prepare to transport goods!
And that's not counting the crowd that didn't find the intruders in the northern half of the camp and was about to be greeted by the shouts of their companions.
If it hadn't been for this incident, they would have been wiped by Lan En in their sleep!
Damn it!
As for the criminals, they are not stingy and use hostage coercion as a means.
But it seems that it is because children are really valuable, plus they have enough confidence in the number and combat power of their side.
The group of people who came to transport the goods didn't even do anything to Little White, but just drove him aside, waiting to kill Lan En before loading him on the ship and selling him.
"Mutants save people too? Amazing! ”
Sledgehammer Man walked over laughing, but the two-handed hammer in his hand didn't pause because of words.
According to the back of Lan En's heart lying on the ground, he smashed over!
"How much money did you charge, tell me!"
"Boom!"
That hammer alone weighs more than five pounds! Coupled with the leverage of the long handle, there is also the accumulation of kinetic energy in the swing.
Even if Lan En rolled out of place, the hammer head that smashed on the sand made a dull loud noise!
In the middle of the witcher's tumbling away, the steel sword sprang upwards like a viper.
The target is the sledgehammer man's open belly.
Even if the power is not smooth in the roll, Lan En is confident that he will let the bastard see his bowels.
But the reason why Sledgehammer Man doesn't care about the empty door when wielding the hammer is because he has a lot of companions on his side.
With a "poof", a long sword stretched out from the sledgehammer man's side, just blocking Lan En's sword-swinging route.
"Get out!"
There was also a shield bearer, who was now roaring against the shield, and was about to rush up and crush Lan to the ground with his shield.
The connection between the three of them is still not as good as that of a professional soldier, but it is still the same sentence, there are many of them. So Lanne's rhythm was completely suppressed.
But fortunately, it was different from the time Pordon was besieged.
This time, the three men completely blocked the crossbowman's range of fire when attacking...... No, they don't seem to have that concept at all.
Therefore, Lan En was free to use his left hand, which was able to release the seal.
An orange-red magical aura flickered in front of his palm.
"Igni!"
Lan En switched the supply method of the mana flow, and the performance of the magic seal also changed from concentrated heating to a large wave of real fire.
A fan-shaped wave of flames swept towards the three of them.
The eyes of the three people who had never seen the Demon Hunter's Seal widened suddenly, and their pupils reflected the fear of flames.
The first instinct of the man with the shield was to retract his head back into the shield, which was a wise decision.
Human flesh is not like a monster, and simple human skin is not resistant to fire.
The man with the sledgehammer and the man with the sword broke out with a terrifying scream the moment he was affected by the wave of fire.
"Ah!!h *2
As soon as the fire wave passed, the exposed skin of the two people was already red in a large area, and these reds looked like they had been slapped a few times, which was inconspicuous.
But in reality, in less than five minutes, these large areas of red skin will accumulate tissue fluid, forming terrifying, huge blisters.
In today's state of hygiene, infection is inevitable, which is no different from announcing the death penalty.
If they had worn more clothes instead of an open-minded fur jacket, the Ignifa seal would not have had such a good effect.
After all, magic flames come and go fast.
Like a man with a shield, just the action of retracting the shield made him completely indistinguishable.
The sledgehammer and long sword could not hold it at all in the severe pain, and fell on the sand.
These two people can already be judged out.
But just when Lan En wanted to step forward and lightly slash the tip of his sword at the throats of the two of them.
The three shield-wielding men directly knocked their companions who were still screaming away and headed towards Lan En!
The combined force of the three of them couldn't stop it at all, and he was suddenly knocked backwards and fell.
And in the air, two crossbow arrows have already been shot!
Lan's cat's eyes shrank into a line for a split second, his free left hand propped up on the ground, and the clasp at the link of his armor tightened suddenly.
With the strength of just one hand, he drove a body with a total weight of more than one hundred and fifty kilograms!
Wear heavy armor on the ground and perform a backflip!
One bolt shot straight into the air, while the other somersaulted and hit him in the ribs.
This is the position that Lan En has deliberately adjusted, here in addition to the cotton armor cover, there is also an external plate armor, and under the plate armor is the chain mail as the main body.
It seems to be a weakness, but in fact it is hard and terrible.
The crossbow bolt easily penetrated the cotton armor, making a muffled "ding" sound on the plate armor, and then it was entangled in the burst cotton and hung crookedly on Lan En's body.
After Lan En landed, his side ribs inadvertently bent inward, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Even if it was intercepted by the armor, the impact of the crossbow arrow still went straight into the viscera.
But the sword and shield men who had already rushed towards him couldn't help but stagnate when they saw this, and their eyes widened.
If you can stop the crossbow arrow, it must be heavy armor.
And this man ...... I just did a one-handed somersault in a heavy armor?!
"That's heavy armor! A few more bows and crossbows! ”
Several people looked at each other, nodded to each other, and shouted backwards.
Fighters who can play well are not fools, and they don't want to play any melee combat with a tin can that can do a one-handed flip.
Anyway, there is a bow and a crossbow, and you can die remotely, what kind of life are you fighting for?
It is enough to raise a shield and swing a sword to limit displacement.
The words of the front-line combatants caused a noise to resound behind them.
The crossbowmen were standing far away, and the current lighting conditions were not good, so they couldn't see the effect of the crossbow bolts after they hit.
But Lane's emergency somersault was in everyone's eyes.
As soon as the word heavy armor came out, everyone was directly shocked.
But then, there was the laughter of the hunter's heart.
For humans, the flesh of brown bears is also terrifying.
But in front of the hordes of hunters, the struggle and fury of the brown bear are just the "fun" of the hunting process.
Even because they wanted to compete for the hunting rights of Lan En, the "bear", several people were excitedly assigning who could shoot a few arrows.
"Whew-Whew-"
The witcher slowly retreated with a half-hunched body, gasping for air.
Sweat runs from the forehead to the corners of the eyes.
The opponent's number and coordination, the offensive and strong pressure that leaves no gaps at all...... Even the body of a demon hunter is about to bottom out.
The cat's eyes wandered ahead, looking for a chance of victory.
White had been driven back into the wooden cage, having been kicked in by a man.
The imp was in the cage, crying and waving to Lane.
That's not to ask the witchers to come over and save themselves...... He wanted the witcher to escape quickly.
"Fool?"
I'm the only one who can save him at this point, and he wants me to escape?
How can there be such people in the world?
Ha, it's because fools are always like this, that's why I don't listen to fools.
"Knock-"
The backward footsteps hit a wooden cage.
Rann leaned his back against the wooden cage to avoid being exposed to enemies.
"Sorceress."
Gasping for breath, Lan asked the man in the wooden cage behind him.
"Want to try struggling?"
