Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Breath of the Wind
When Lu Chengfeng showed his skills, the other two fifth-order swordsmen were not idle.
Although the pressure they were under was greater than that of Lu Chengfeng, they were fifth-order after all, and they had a natural advantage in the face of fourth-order demonic beasts. Despite some wounds on his body, he managed to kill one and severely wound four. There were so many demon wolves that had lost their combat effectiveness, which made the pressure on the other mercenaries much less.
The form on the field was unconsciously beaten back by them.
If the Wind Wolf King could give them a few more minutes, under the leadership of the two fifth-order sword masters and Lu Chengfeng, they would really be able to turn the unfavorable situation around. Unfortunately, the Tempest Wolf King's patience has run out. Seeing that his subordinates were unable to take down these people for a long time, but suffered great losses, it let out a few low growls from its mouth, and then went down in person.
"The Wolf King is coming!"
Although the battle had already raged, the mercenaries did not let down their guard against the wolf king. Seeing its movements, Chen Liu was the first to whisper a warning. The two fifth-order swordsmen also restrained their movements slightly, for fear of being attacked by the Wind Wolf King.
As a fifth-order demonic beast that had already mastered the power of the wind element, the wolf king did not directly rush up to fight the mercenaries. It first took advantage of the mercenary's inattention, opened its mouth and spat out a pale cyan wind sword, which severely damaged it. Then, the wolf king stood in the center of the wolf pack, and the rich wind element gathered all over his body.
"It's going to prepare magic?"
The two fifth-order swordsmen were immediately anxious, but the Wolf King's subordinates rushed up desperately at the moment, holding them down firmly, not giving the two of them a chance to interrupt the Wolf King's spell casting at all. Although Lu Chengfeng waited for an opportunity to shoot a ground crack fluctuating sword, the distance was too far, and at the end of the strong crossbow, he was blocked by an ordinary wind wolf, and in the end he still failed to succeed.
The next moment, the wolf king unleashed this powerful magic.
Breath of the Wind!
The cyan air current, visible to the naked eye, spreads out in all directions, forming a circle with a huge radius. All the demon wolves who were blessed by the breath of the wind suddenly became lighter. Whether it's attack speed or movement speed, it's suddenly increased by several percent.
It's not an attack spell, it's a crowd-blessed spell!
Although it didn't seem to have an immediate effect, the mercenaries present knew very well that this skill was trickier than attacking spells. The wind wolf itself is already agile enough, and now the speed is even faster to an unimaginable level. Two mercenaries were bitten by each other because they misjudged the speed of the other party, or their hand speed could not keep up with the attack of the wind wolf.
This, in turn, increases the pressure on the mercenaries, creating a vicious circle!
Lu Chengfeng and the six of them are not bad, at least they maintain a relatively complete formation, and they can still support each other in times of crisis. But the two people who were excluded from the formation were under even more pressure. Although a mercenary used a ring with constant bloodlust to support it with a brief burst, everyone knew that according to the current situation, once its bloodlust effect ended, it would be the person's death.
It was in such a precarious situation that the Wind Wolf King put the last weight on the already tilted scales,
As a fifth-order demonic beast, its movement speed was undoubtedly faster than that of an ordinary fourth-order wind wolf. The mercenary who had opened the bloodthirsty spell was bent on dealing with the siege of the two wind wolves from the front, and he had no intention of caring about anything else. By the time he felt the wind blowing in his face, it was too late. As if the wind wolf appeared on his side in an instant, it opened its wolf mouth and bit him down on the thigh. Before the scream could be heard, its glowing claws grabbed again!
"It's over!"
Whether it was Lu Chengfeng or other mercenaries, seeing this scene, they all felt a little sad in their hearts. Attacked by the wolf king, and surrounded by two wind wolves who were eyeing each other and ready to pick up the leak, this guy was dead, and he couldn't even use bloodlust to end.
"Dog's beast, I'll fight with you!"
Seeing that death was imminent, this fourth-order mercenary suddenly burst out with great courage after being terrified to the extreme. Ignoring the severe pain in his body, he laughed wildly, and struggled to thrust the sword in his hand head-on, leaving a finger-deep sword mark on the wind wolf's cyan fur!
The dog is still in a hurry and jumps over the wall, let alone a fourth-order mercenary?
Although he himself was bitten to death by the two mercenaries who pounced on the side after striking this blow with all his might, this mercenary who brought Lu Chengfeng and them a lot of trouble finally made a little contribution of his own before he died. Even, if it weren't for the quality of the long sword in his hand, I'm afraid that this blow would make the opponent bleed.
"Whew!"
Realizing that he was injured, the wind wolf let out a long roar of rage. Although the mercenary had been killed by his subordinates, the monster with a little more blood in his eyes still bit his mouth one after another, biting his corpse into a bloody blur, and then raised his head and looked at the remaining mercenaries viciously.
Don't even think about running away from any of these people!
Feeling the murderous aura of the leader, these demon wolves also howled one after another, and they became more and more afraid of death when they attacked.
In this case, the two fifth-order sword masters could only protect themselves, or try their best to take care of the two people left and right. But it was already unrealistic to let him withdraw to deal with the fifth-order wolf king. If this continues, unless the wolf king gives up on his own for fear of casualties, or some miracle occurs, it is only a matter of time before their temporary team is breached.
After all, the threat of a wolf king is too great, and two fifth-order sword masters may not be willing to stay desperate for someone they don't know!
"Don't, don't come here!"
The wolf king, who killed the mercenary, licked the blood on his mouth fiercely, turned his head and glanced at it, and coincidentally took a fancy to Chen Liu. Being targeted by such a fierce beast, Chen Liu only felt cold all over, and he was almost deprived of his mind. He grudgingly grasped the sword in his hand and took a step back, hoping to get the help of two fifth-order sword masters, but in the end he was disappointed.
Not only did the two swordsmen not move, but even the two teammates around them subconsciously avoided a step.
If it weren't for the fact that once the formation broke up, all the people would have died, I'm afraid these two would have withdrawn a hundred or a thousand steps long ago. In their eyes, the guy who was targeted by the wolf king was undoubtedly the plague god. Although it is likely that they will be the next to be targeted by the wolf king, before the threat of life and death, even if it is only a second late, they will choose to let their companions die first - not to mention, they are just temporary teammates, and there is no pressure to sell them.
"I'm obsessed, I shouldn't have come out......"
Seeing the figure of the wolf king quickly rushing towards him, and his death may be the next moment, Chen Liu's heart flashed with regret, and then raised the sword in his hand in vain. Although he himself didn't believe that he could block the attack of the fifth-order wolf king, his will to survive still made him react instinctively.
"Smack!"
The long sword in his hand luckily withstood the attack of the wolf king. It's a pity that the force on the sword is too great, Chen Liu only felt that the tiger's mouth was numb, and he actually failed to hold the trembling long sword, and directly let the weapon go.
At this moment, Chen Liu was completely desperate.
What if he blocks this claw? The wolf king only needs to do it again, and he will be dead!
Just when Chen Liu had already closed his eyes and was waiting for death, and the wolf king's claws were about to grab his chest, a huge force suddenly hit him from the side, knocking him out two steps. It was these two steps that allowed him to avoid the wolf's claws by a fraction of the moment, and he was extremely lucky to escape!
"Who?"
Finding that he was not dead, Chen Liu was stunned and quickly opened his eyes. Only then did he realize that Lu Chengfeng didn't know when he had rushed over and blocked the attack of the Wolf King for him.
The surprise of surviving and an indescribable emotion converged into a warm current and poured into Chen Liu's heart.
At the most critical moment, the two fifth-order sword masters ignored him. On the contrary, he just dealt with it normally, and he didn't deliberately make friends with a fourth-order swordsman, but he had the courage to rush out and save him!
This life-saving kindness...... Heavy.
"Don't be in a daze, get your sword!"
Lu Chengfeng didn't need to look to know that he hadn't come back to his senses yet, so he scolded loudly. Although he held up the wolf king, his position was vacant. If Chen Liu can't fill the position immediately, the entire formation will still be finished, and the result is no different from Lu Chengfeng letting Chen Liu die.
"Good!"
was warned by Lu Chengfeng, and Chen Liu immediately came back to his senses. Seeing the hope of survival, he immediately picked up his weapon from under his feet, shouted angrily, and reflexively met the two wind wolves that rushed in from the gap. While using all his resources to gradually drive the two wind wolves out, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lu Chengfeng frequently. After all, the other party was dealing with a terrifying fifth-order wolf king on his own.
Will this young swordsman be able to withstand its windy attacks?
Not only did he have such worries, but Tang De and the others were also worried about him when they were surprised by Lu Chengfeng's courage. Although Scarface snorted twice, feeling that Lu Chengfeng was beyond his strength, and dared to take the initiative to challenge the wolf king, he also had to admit in his heart that this young man did have some courage.
But so what?
Scarface has been in the mercenary world for so many years, and he has seen a lot of brave and bloody young people. In this cruel world, it is not possible to win with courage, in the final analysis, it is still strength. If you don't have that strength, but you want to defeat your opponent with courage, you will end up just dying!
Alas, it's a pity......
Scarface, who thought like this, suddenly felt a little distracted, so he turned his head and stopped looking. It's just that five seconds have passed, ten seconds have passed, and half a minute has passed, but the scream he expected has never been released!
"Really?"
He turned his head again in disbelief, but he happened to see the picture of Lu Chengfeng stepping on a magical and rhythmic footwork under his feet, facing the Wind Wolf King and fighting with it!
