Chapter 203: The Salty and Sweet Party Dispute
"Ahh
A mercenary of the Burning Mercenary Regiment was dragged into the air by a giant bat-like beast. More than a dozen of the same demonic beasts surrounded him, and the mercenary only had time to let out a scream before it was completely divided.
This is the 316th mercenary to be killed, and the previous 315 people have lost their lives for the same reason. The Blood Mercenary Regiment, which had been following the Burning Mercenary Regiment, was similar, and they had also lost nearly five hundred people because of this magical beast.
This is the third night that the two mercenary groups have entered the primordial vein. Two days ago, before dark, they would choose to find an open place to set up camp, and today, too, before the sun set, Gaguna found a good looking flat terrain, and immediately ordered to be stationed. And the Burning Mercenary Regiment, which had been following them all the time, naturally made the same choice.
However, tonight was destined to be a bloody night, and as soon as night fell, the people of the two mercenary groups only heard a noisy sound coming from the sky, followed by countless giant bats attacking the mercenary group's station.
These giant bats spread their wings of two meters, and it was easy to drag a person into the sky, coupled with the large number of them, and in the most favorable environment for them, in less than three hours of fighting, the two mercenary groups had already lost more than a thousand people, and the night had just begun.
"Russell, take your men, give me a hard beating, don't save potions or anything, you can kill one by one. ”
"Ferrero, why is your mage group getting weaker and weaker, if you have medicine, you will take medicine, and you will be reimbursed ten times when you go back!!"
The two regiment leaders, who were not accustomed to each other on weekdays, also put aside their previous suspicions at this time, and brought the people of the two mercenary groups together to deal with these big bats.
To deal with this kind of aerial enemy, the mage is definitely the first choice. Although the mages look down on these rude and rude rough men, Burning and Burning Blood, as the two largest mercenary groups in Dohanicz, naturally there are also mages who are willing to take refuge.
Just now, the two captains were giving orders to the leaders of the mage regiments under their respective commands, and in such a battle, an ordinary battle was far less effective than a high-level mage.
All kinds of splendid magic don't need to be thrown into the sky, there is no need to aim at all, as long as you release it, there will definitely be bats hit. Bats are constantly falling from the sky, but compared to the huge number of bats, this is only a drop in the bucket, and the number of people in the two mercenary groups is still decreasing.
"Furious flames!!"
"Extreme Cold!!"
As the two strongest people on the field, the two regiment commanders naturally cannot sit still. Gaguna, who was invincible in the fire attribute, used a move of "Furious Flames", with him as the center, the bats within a radius of twenty meters turned into flames and fell from the sky. And Dijuma's "Extreme Cold" is another branch of the water attribute - ice. Bats that have been hit by the extreme cold can only be frozen into ice mounds, falling to the ground and shattering.
"I didn't expect us to fight side by side one day again. ”
"Heh, it's just forced by the situation, and our grievances can't be resolved so easily. ”
Gaguna and Ditama were back to back, and the two former friends looked at the black bat swarm with grim expressions. Before tonight, from entering the primordial vein to now, they have only lost a total of less than 500 people, but now in three hours of work, more than 1,000 people said that they were gone, and the brothers who were still drinking and bragging with themselves one moment ago died in the next second, they have really experienced too many such things.
As the number of people gradually decreased, the speed of attrition became faster and faster, and after losing more than 100 people, the voice that Di Juma had been looking forward to finally sounded.
"Report to the Chief, ten kilometers to the east from here, we have discovered a cavern, and at your orders, we have dug it up with a geotechnical conversion scroll enough to hide all of us. ”
It was a diminutive man who spoke, and his appearance was unremarkable, except for the dark eyes, like a burrowing mouse.
"Hahaha, well done, brothers, follow me to the east, where we are hiding. ”
"Dijuma, when are you ......?"
"Don't talk nonsense, listen to me, quickly retreat to the east, and if you delay for one more minute, you will have to take dozens of more lives. ”
"Yes, yes, brothers of the Burning Mercenary Regiment, let's quickly retreat to the east. ”
......
At the mouth of a five-meter-high cave, Gaguna and Ditama were panting against the cave wall, and all the bats they were chasing were blocked by them with an enchantment.
"Poof, hahaha, Gaguna, your cloak is still so ridiculous. ”
"You still say me, you think your clothes look good when you're crumpled?"
The two heads of the regiment looked at each other embarrassed and laughed.
After laughing enough, the two couldn't help but feel a little sad. More than a thousand people, just gone in a few hours.
Although mercenaries are a profession that licks blood from the knife edge, old mercenaries like them should have seen the death of their companions a long time ago. In fact, the longer you mix, the richer your feelings will be, but years of experience have taught you to hide your emotions in your heart, which is not only a protection for yourself, but also a deterrent to others.
It is the two regiment leaders who know that human life is precious, so even if their relationship deteriorates to the point where it is difficult to reconcile, they have never really stabbed each other, and they also strictly prohibit the members of the two mercenary groups from fighting in private.
"Gaguna, are you tired?"
"I'm tired. ”
"I was tired more than ten years ago, and at that time we had a very good relationship, and we were planning to open a small joint venture store when we made a lot of money. Every day I go to the park to play chess with those old men, or go to tease other people's daughters or something, thinking about those days is like living in a dream. ”
Dijuma leaned against the wall, her face full of longing.
"Who's to say it's not, those days are simply the life I dreamed of. At that time, we both planned to open a tofu brain shop, because the girls and ladies in the city like to eat this thing, and we can also feast our eyes by the way. ”
"Just ......"
"Just ......"
The two of them groaned for a while, then stood up at the same time and pointed at each other's noses and yelled.
"You heretic, why do you like salty (sweet) tofu brain!!"
How many grievances are contained in this sentence, only the two themselves know. They are not afraid of other people's jokes, the reason why they have changed from good buddies and good brothers to enemies who are anxious when they meet now.
The biggest reason is that Gaguna likes sweet tofu brains, while Dijuma prefers salty tofu brains. Originally, it was just a big fart, but the two began to dig deep into the differences between the two from this small thing.
Digging and digging, digging and digging to the end, the boat of friendship was dug through by the two of them themselves.
