Chapter 394: The second round of mercenary attacks
"The monster in the lake has come ashore!"
Looking down from the mountain, the lights of the town by the lake gradually turned on, and the town seemed to gradually wake up.
The monsters of the lake often come ashore to feed, and the townspeople are not frightened, but they are always frightened.
Although there were "big lords" and "second lords" in this territory before, they only knew how to collect taxes and did not care about the lives and deaths of the residents of the town. M.biQuge.biZ
On the contrary, they will also take pleasure in the fact that the townspeople are chased and eaten in the mountains where the monsters do not go.
And if you don't drive it away by force, the monster will linger around the town.
Therefore, the residents of the town can only ask the knight for help, and after scraping together enough belongings, the knight will come with Hu to help drive away the monsters.
But now it was different, as soon as Hobert heard the sound of the gong, he immediately called Philip, Conrad, and Schill to the study: "Schill! Immediately ask the townspeople to take refuge near the Lord's Palace.
"Philip led the manservant to take care of the reception and prepare the refuge space, and Conrad led his subordinates to maintain order!
"After the old man, children, and women have all withdrawn to the mountain, then organize young adults to try to round up and kill monsters!"
When Hobart was assigning the task, Foirth was also woken up to the study, and she saw Hobert wearing a cloak while talking, so she stepped forward to help Hobart sort out the cloak: "Be careful! ”
Hobert nodded and said to Philip and the others, "Go quickly!" ”
Philip was still a little worried: "Sir......"
Schille, who had seen Hobert's power, smiled and said, "Don't worry, the monster has bitten us to death, and the lord will be fine." ”
Hobert smiled at Firth, raised his two-handed sword, and walked out quickly, he had seen a monster when he first arrived in the territory, although its strength was not small, but its intelligence did not seem to be high, this kind of monster was easy to kill.
Hobart glanced at the sky, the clouds obscured the moon, the cold wind howled, and it was pitch black outside.
Instead of feeling the cold, Hobert felt a little excited.
As soon as he stepped out of the Lord's Mansion, he heard several people outside shouting: "The Lord has an order, come to the Lord's Mansion for refuge!" ”
It was Hill and the others, who shouted as they walked down the mountain.
Hobert smiled slightly, Schill's wit had finally been used in the right place.
Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Hobart raised the long sword in his hand, and a bright light suddenly shone from the tip of the sword.
This is a use of the power of the "Light Priest Ring", but as Hobart infuses the ring with more and more spirituality, his longsword gets brighter and brighter, until Hobert and the entire Lord's Mansion are illuminated.
Especially on pitch black nights, the light is bright enough for the whole town to see.
And the first group of townspeople to avoid it saw Lord Hobert wrapped in holy light, and this scene was imprinted in their minds, making them unforgettable for the rest of their lives!
The lord is really a "god"! He is like the story of the Dependents in the Bible of Life, bright, holy, wise!
In fact, Hobert did this in the hope that he could become a "lighthouse" and guide the people who had taken refuge, and by the way, strengthen his directivity as a lord: run towards the light emitted by the lord and reach the place of refuge.
Hobart didn't expect so many people to kneel down before him, and many more were stunned in place, as if they were saying something, and they didn't know what they were saying.
When Hobert saw that the lights and torches in the town were moving towards him, the light on the tip of his sword gradually faded out.
The people around were a little blackened by the light just now, and it seemed that the lights and torches were not very effective. When everyone got used to the dark environment, they found that the lord had already disappeared.
At this time, Hobert was strolling through the streets of the town, and the land around the town was very fertile, so even if there were monsters that often attacked him, there were still many residents in the town.
It's just that many residents have been killed by monsters in the past few years, and there are a lot of ownerless houses in the town, and now those ownerless houses belong to the lord's mansion, or to be more specific, they all belong to Hobert.
"Help!"
Hobert immediately followed the sound and rushed into a courtyard, where a young couple was blocked by a monster at the door.
The wife was holding a child and was looking at the monster in front of her with a frightened expression.
The husband is armed with an axe and pretends to be calm against the monster.
And that monster was a bit like a fish in Hobert's impression, the kind of fish that evolved limbs for the first time in the ocean.
Its head has most of the characteristics of a fish, covered in scales, with short but powerful limbs, and a stout tail with fins.
The monster looks like a crocodile, and after its limbs are charged, it finds the right time to pounce on the young man with an axe.
Frightened, the young man swung his axe while hiding, but he didn't cut anything for a long time, and when he looked in the direction of the door, the monster's tail was trampled by a man in a cloak.
The monster more than three meters long is like a freshly beaten fish, no matter how you jump, jump, or twist it, you can't get out.
Only then did the monster remember to turn around and bite, but a black shadow flashed, and the monster was already in a different place.
Only then did the young man recognize: "Sir! ”
Hobertazhu was about to kneel down and thank his young man: "Go to the Lord's Palace!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" The family had been sleeping too deeply just now to hear the sound of the gong, and it took Hill and the others to wake them up, but it was too late.
Watching them leave town in a hurry, Hobart jumped onto the town's somewhat dilapidated bell tower.
It's the tallest building in town, and Hobert can see the entire town with his vision.
Everyone should have withdrawn, and the monsters began to attack.
Hobert stared at them silently, and soon discovered that the monsters were clearly organized, rushing into the town in three groups from three different directions.
The poultry, livestock, and guard dogs left in the yard were all killed.
And Hobert thought in his heart that if he had a team of hundreds of soldiers armed with advanced rifles, he could easily block the charge of these monsters.
It's a pity that he didn't, so the lord could only charge into battle by himself.
Seeing the place where the monster's attack was most violent, Hobert flew low with the ability of the "Ocean Pendant": "Corrosion! ”
There is no need to "charge" at all, and the ability to "corrode" immediately corrodes the minds of the monsters, and the dozen or so monsters that rushed to the front immediately tore each other apart.
Hobert summoned the "Wind Blade" again, and the three monsters were immediately cut by the sharp "Wind Blade" with extremely deep wounds, and blood splattered far away.
There was no one else here, and Hobert began to target the thirty or forty monsters with the most violent impact, familiarizing himself with the abilities of the "Ocean Pendant" as much as possible.
Under the "lightning strike", a monster must be burned to charcoal, and the surrounding monsters are numb by electricity, and it is difficult to move for a while.
The "Wind Blade" has a larger strike area, but the monsters have rough skin and thick flesh, and although the "Wind Blade" can make their blood flow, it is difficult to inflict fatal injuries.
While Hobert was pondering the use of the "Ocean Pendant", he suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his spirituality.
Hobert hurried away from the monster and took off his cloak that was already covered in blood.
Suddenly, a loud voice rang out: "Seals and magical items are forbidden here!" ”
It was the voice of the "Punishment Knight" who fled from here the other day.
Hobert sneered, they really know how to pick the time! Or is it that this monster attack has something to do with them?
However, this is not the time to ponder this, the enemy's attack is coming, and the "corrupt baron" and "arsonist", who have recovered their state, rush towards Hobert from both sides.
The "Corrupt Baron" kicked over the stump of a monster and completed the process of "bribery": "Weakened! ”
Hobert once again used the "shield" ability of the "Order Crystal" to block the opponent's "weakening".
The "Punishment Knight" immediately felt the increase in his strength, and he sneered in his heart: the reason why this kid is so powerful is because of the accumulation of magical items!
The "forbidden" at the level of "Punishment Knight" does not mean that after "prohibiting the use of magical items", Hobert will not be able to use magical items.
Hobart can still be used, but each time he uses it, the power of the "Punishment Knight" can be increased by one point, and when the "Punishment Knight" disobeys the "forbidden" punishment, Hobert is usually difficult to dodge and is in a state of being weakened by the opponent.
This is the so-called "punishment"!
The "Arsonist" who rushed to the front used the "Burning Wall" to besiege Hobert and create an opportunity for the "Punishment Knight" to "punish" next.
The "Corrupt Baron" distanced himself and was ready to besiege Hobart at any moment.
This is a tactic they have already discussed, if it is replaced by other extraordinary people, in the case of the "Cold Night Squad" has an absolute first move, they may die here tonight.
But of course Hobert is different, he still has a lot of strength that has not been exposed.
The "Punishment Knight" was about to start punishing according to the tactics, he felt his strength increase again, and he sneered: "Dead ......"
Suddenly, two bronze gates with complex occult patterns appeared next to the "Punishment Knight", and indescribable eyes could be seen from the doors, and the members of the "Cold Night Squad" suddenly felt as if they were being targeted by something terrifying.
The monsters that were about to pounce on Hobart also immediately dispersed out of fear, as if to make way for everyone to make way for the battle.
"Dead ...... Lose! ”
The "Knight of Punishment" used his extraordinary abilities, but he was grabbed by the pale hands sticking out of the bronze gate, and he had to use "death" on these arms.
But the effect was not great, after all, the owner of those arms was already dead.
A miserable scream came from the bronze gate, and the fear in the hearts of the "Punishment Knight" and others was detonated, and it became difficult to concentrate for a while.
Hobert's counterattack began, and he once again entered a low-flying state, like a swooping eagle, rushing towards the "arsonist" who was trying to gather the flames and prepare to burn the "gate of the underworld", and at the same time, attacked the "corrupt baron" with a "lightning strike".
Although the strength of the "Punishment Knight" continues to increase, he still struggles to break free from the "Gate of the Underworld" within a few seconds.
The "Corrupt Baron" is also trying his best to avoid the "Lightning Strike", but this skill has a certain tracking effect, and it is difficult to escape the fate of being slashed unless he fights with other abilities of the same level.
Hobert had experienced in previous expeditions that even if he "distorted" the landing point of the lightning strike and was not directly hit by the "lightning strike", he would still be affected by the accompanying paralyzing effect, and he would move slowly for two or three seconds.
So Hobart created an excellent opportunity for himself to attack the "arsonist", and during the flight over, a "runaway stone" had already been thrown over: "Out of control!" ”
The "arsonist" stared at him, he had previous experience, of course he knew the power of the "Runaway Stone", so he quickly raised his pistol to accurately hit the "Runaway Stone" at night again, and quickly dodged.
For Hobert, it doesn't matter that the "Runaway Stone" does not achieve the desired effect, anyway, the process of "bribery" is completed by the way: "Weakened!" ”
Sensing that his agility and strength had been weakened, the "Pyromant" could barely dodge the longsword in Hobert's hand, and was soon cut by the longsword.
Fortunately, the wound was not deep, and the "arsonist" did not take it too seriously.
"Exile!"
Hobert felt a huge thrust and pushed himself more than ten meters away.
It turned out that the "Punishment Knight" had been freed, and a pile of magma had been unearthed in front of the "Gate of the Underworld", which had burned off a lot of those miserable white arms.
This caused Hobert to immediately end the summoning of the "Gates of the Underworld", which consumed a huge amount of spirituality, and the two bronze gates disappeared immediately.
Hobart didn't know what ability the "Punishment Knight" used to get out of trouble so quickly.
The "Punishment Knight" and the other three barely stopped, and when Hobart was pushed away, they chose to retreat again.
This time Hobart did not pursue, because he had already decided to launch a surprise attack on the other side as well.
As for the way to find the other party, Hobert glanced at the two-handed sword in his hand and showed a shallow smile.
He had noticed just now that the "Corrupt Baron" already had serious dark circles under his eyes, and although there was no problem with fighting now, after tonight, his combat effectiveness would definitely be affected.
The reason why they were in such a hurry to launch a second round of attacks should have a lot to do with the fact that the "corrupt baron" was about to fall asleep.
And the "arsonist" was cut again, hehehe~
Hobert suddenly found that he had a lot of "tricks", and the raid of the "Cold Night Squad" did not bring any psychological pressure to Hobert, but on the contrary, it also gave the "Cold Night Squad" a huge pressure.
At this time, a monster with no eyes rushed out of the street, and Hobert raised his sword and entered a new battle.
It soon became apparent to Hobart that the monsters seemed to be testing themselves in an organized manner, and that their attacks were actually tactical.
This despised Hobert from the battle and returned to the top of the bell tower to quietly observe the monsters.
Soon he discovers that the monsters are communicating with each other in unpleasant voices, and he finds a human figure among the monsters.
