Chapter 149: Hacked Cauldron
With the help of the captain's sacrifice, several of Warhammer's top brass were able to descend safely from the other side.
However, just as Lu Chengfeng got up and was about to catch up and take a look, with the cry of the Blue Ice Dragon Eagle, two more Blue Ice Dragon Eagles flew in the sky. Compared to the previous one, the size of these two dragon eagles is a circle smaller, but their strength has not shrunk too much, at least they are also a seventh-order high level!
They circled in the air, chasing several of Warhammer's higher-ups.
It turned out that before this Tibetan Dam Snow Mountain, there was not only one dragon eagle, but a nest. The Warhammer Mercenary Regiment's intelligence had clearly been mistaken and misjudged the situation, resulting in a very dangerous situation now.
Lu Chengfeng didn't have the idea of competing with the eighth-order flying demonic beast yet, so after squatting for a while, he chased after several high-ranking members of the Warhammer. What they were facing was two immature dragon eagles of the seventh order. In this way, even if he is discovered, Lu Chengfeng has a chance to escape. Moreover, since the commander of the Warhammer was planning to take the risk of luring away the monsters, he was probably ready to hang up. The newly obtained Ice Spirit Cold Spring was not on him, but was handed over to several of his subordinates.
Perhaps, you can still pick up a leak?
With this in mind, Lu Chengfeng continued to track while trying to hide his figure.
If they were in the forest, it would be possible for these Warhammer mercenaries to evade the Dragonhawk through the dense jungle. But in this snow, their running speed is severely limited, and their body shape is more obvious. The two seventh-order dragon eagles easily caught up with them and began to attack non-stop. Although the attack of the seventh-order dragon eagle was not as strong as the Blue Ice Dragon Eagle, it was enough to injure the people of the Warhammer Mercenary Regiment.
Despite the resistance of these people, it didn't take long for someone to be injured under the attack of the dragon eagle.
This made them realize that it was too difficult to retreat with all their hands in mind. So, I don't know who shouted first, and several people fled in different directions. Someone is destined to die, but maybe two will survive.
Their choice made the two dragon eagles a little angry. After circling for a while, the two Blue Ice Dragon Eagles decided to split up in pursuit. The person who had been injured before was the first to be attacked by the dragon eagle. Moreover, after only a little more than a minute of delay, he was frozen by the dragon eagle who seized the opportunity, and then inserted his sharp claws into his body, took him into the air and tore it in half, turning into pieces and throwing them down. This bloody scene looks a little miserable.
Maybe he wasn't hungry, Long Ying didn't mean to eat him just for the sake of killing. After killing one, the dragon eagle turned around and began to return along the same path, ready to continue the pursuit.
Lu Chengfeng frowned, but in the end he didn't make a move. Even if this dragon eagle is an immature individual, its strength is beyond imagination. What's more, he was also expelled by the Warhammer people, and he couldn't stand up for the other party. If you want to come out and become a mercenary, you must always be prepared to encounter this outcome.
After waiting patiently for a while and confirming that the dragon eagle had flown away, Lu Chengfeng walked out of the hiding place. After going around the scene of the corpse, Lu Chengfeng didn't have much effort to find the half-cut body of the member of the Warhammer Mercenary Regiment, as well as the space ring on his finger. It's a pity that this guy seems to have played big purchases before, and he only has a pitiful few thousand gold coins in the crystal card. Although there are a lot of other messy props and materials, they are not worth much - they are not even as valuable as the space ring itself.
Lu Chengfeng, who was a little disappointed, shook his head and chased down the footprints on the snow.
There are footprints on the ground, dragon eagles flying in the sky, and the screams of the mercenaries before they die. With the help of such clues, Lu Chengfeng found a bloody scene again ten minutes later. This time, the sword hero who was killed by Long Ying obviously had a struggle. Not only was the surrounding snow covered with sword marks, but there were also some severed dragon eagle feathers next to it. Of course, as the end of resistance, he himself died even worse, and half of his body was swallowed alive by Long Ying.
Fortunately, the arm he wore with the space ring was still there.
Lu Chengfeng prayed for him, and then turned the ring over. What surprised him a little was that in addition to some gold coins and regular things, Lu Chengfeng found two well-sealed porcelain altars in his ring. After taking it out, even through the porcelain altar, Lu Chengfeng could feel the biting chill inside. If you're not mistaken, this is exactly the Ice Spirit Cold Spring that the Warhammer Mercenaries have tried so hard to get!
It's a pity that there was a little problem with their intelligence, which led to heavy damage to themselves.
Eighth-order wurm demonic beasts were not so easy to provoke, and in the end, the people of Warhammer paid the price for their greed.
After putting these two heavy porcelain altars into his ring, Lu Chengfeng did not stay. has already picked up a big bargain for nothing, and if you don't leave, you will be too greedy. If the other Warhammer mercenaries turned back and saw him, it would be another big problem.
All the way down the mountain, when he was about to enter the height of the seven-thousand-meter blizzard, Lu Chengfeng saw the dragon eagle that had turned back. If you continue to go down, the weather will become bad again, and it will be difficult for the dragon eagle to continue the pursuit in this environment. I just don't know, how many Warhammer people are left?
This question was originally unrelated to Lu Chengfeng. It's just that when he left the Snow Mountain and returned to Tianque City, he accidentally reunited with the Warhammer Mercenary Regiment, and it became related.
Even though more than a day had passed, the leader of the Warhammer Mercenary Regiment could still see the miserable appearance. He had several frostbites on his body, and his protective armor had been torn by claws in several places. The only surviving member of the regiment was also covered in bandages. Walking next to them were more than a dozen members of the group who were originally responsible for monitoring and receiving at the foot of the mountain. Among them, there were three people who drove Lu Chengfeng away.
Originally, Lu Chengfeng and them should have been well water and not river water. Even if he sneaked away two rings after Long Ying, these people shouldn't know. After all, it would be good if they could escape under the pursuit of the dragon eagle, and they would definitely not have time to remember the place where their companion died. Without knowing the specific coordinates, even if they turned back, they would not be able to find it in the vast snow-capped mountains. Therefore, it is most likely that they will be safe with each other.
But on the contrary, after a few people whispered a few words to the commander of the warhammer, these people accelerated and overtook and surrounded Lu Chengfeng tightly.
One injured seventh-order powerhouse, three sixth-order, and nearly ten fourth-order and fifth-order martial artists.
Being surrounded by so many people, even if an ordinary swordsman is not scared to pee, most of them will be nervous to the point of being unstoppable. After all, all of these warhammer mercenaries who poured up had unkind faces, and they had the intention of doing it directly. However, Lu Chengfeng was very calm and asked indifferently, "What are you doing here?"
"What are you doing?" Hmph, you know in your heart!" The leader of the Warhammer Mercenary Regiment walked in separately from the crowd, looked at Lu Chengfeng and asked, "Are you sure that person is him?"
The sixth-order swordsman who had driven Lu Chengfeng took a step forward and said, "Yes, on the night after you went up the mountain, Boss, this person once appeared at the foot of the Zangba Snow Mountain. Although he was then asked to leave, the snow-capped mountain is so big, no one can say whether he went up the mountain from somewhere else. ”
"You can't go wrong. The leader of the Warhammer Mercenary Regiment showed a hideous look and said, "Our plan was originally perfect, but it turned out to be pitted by a fifth-order sword master. He designed to usher in other magical beasts, and several of our brothers died on the snow. I was also chased by the dragon eagle, and I fought to the death to lure it away. Coincidentally, this person was the Fifth Order, and he was the only one who approached the snow-capped mountain that night. If it's a coincidence, do you believe it?"
was instigated by the regiment commander like this, and the other mercenaries had a little more murderous on their faces, and they shouted: "It's him!"
"Kill this kid and avenge your brothers!"
"Dare to yin our Warhammer mercenary group, he doesn't know how to write dead characters, right?"
"Boss don't need to look at it, how can there be such a coincidence in the world, he must have done it!"
For a while, the crowd was excited, and they directly surrounded Lu Chengfeng on the official road, and it seemed that he was about to do it just after the regiment commander's order.
This is...... Divert your gaze?
At first, Lu Chengfeng, who was a little inexplicable, suddenly understood in his heart after listening to their words. Regarding the death of the war hammer, although Lu Chengfeng followed and picked up the cheap, he did not do anything. It was completely their own accident that provoked the Blue Ice Dragon Eagle. However, the commander of the Warhammer personally led the team, but because of the mistakes made by his own people, several high-ranking people died, and it is estimated that his prestige will fall sharply. He didn't want to take that responsibility, so he had to find a scapegoat!
In this case, Lu Chengfeng, who once tried to climb the mountain, became the best scapegoat.
A lone fifth-order swordsman, if he kills it, he will kill it, and no one knows that it was their Warhammer mercenary group who did it. Moreover, what the situation on the mountain was, only he and the surviving sixth-order henchman knew. As long as the two of them didn't say anything, no matter how Lu Chengfeng explained, those angry mercenary group members wouldn't believe it, especially if someone had proved half of the truth.
It seems that this black pot is set on his back.
Although he did take the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, and it was nothing to carry the black cauldron, but the death of the Warhammer had nothing to do with him, this must be declared. The leader of this Warhammer mercenary group is also black-bellied, and Lu Chengfeng was hesitant to help him before. Now it seems that it was right not to help. "What else do you have to say?" Although he was surprised by Lu Chengfeng's composure, the absolute strength was there, and the commander of the Warhammer was not afraid of what kind of wind wolf Lu Chengfeng could set off. He pulled down his face in reassurance, and asked, "Why did you attack our Warhammer men? Was it because we stopped us when we were going up the mountain, or because we coveted the Ice Spirit Cold Spring? Even if we did something wrong, Your Excellency would have gone too far." Since you killed our companions first, don't blame our men for being ruthless. ”
