Chapter 38: Last Night

Survival is an instinct

Therefore, rescuing a drowning person is a dangerous job. If you fail, the drowning person will turn into the big stone required for the punishment of being soaked in a pig cage and cling to you. He can no longer care about it at that time.

How can you swim or save him if he is pestering you? He has lost his courage and soul. It is just an instinct to grasp at straws that drives him to do things.

Of course, the group of people rushing towards the camp where Neo is located are not as bad as the above. They have brains, and a mage is acting as the brains of the entire escape team. It is also through his

With the 'Good Life Tracking' technique, this team of people can avoid missing the place in this dark night.

In fact, more than 1,000 meters is not that far for the Hilfanis Hill Ridge area, which has a broad field of vision comparable to that of the grasslands. During the day, when the weather is better, it can be easily seen with the naked eye, not to mention

There is also a very commonly used skill called Eagle Eye. There are many spellcasters and fighters who know it. Even if they don’t know it, they can still carry two magic scrolls without delaying anything. Baron Kreuliu’s

This is how the team found Neo and his party, and the other two teams that stayed near the rift also knew the approximate location of Neo and the others.

The fleeing party abandoned their horses and used them as obstacles to deal with the monsters, covering the main force's escape to the camp along the hook-shaped hill ridge road.

At the same time, Nikolai found Neo. "Dear Mr. Gusby, my master has decided that everyone on our side will be under your command. This is my deputy Oleg, and this is

Groat the Warlock"

Neo was startled, "Suddenly, how could I receive such an honor?"

"My master thinks you are capable and trustworthy"

Neo shrugged his eyebrows and said to himself: "This fool is too unscrupulous."

"I would like to ask you, your master and your lady..."

"They will never engage in any fight and they must not die"

Neo nodded and said seriously: "Well, I understand, they can't die. It's hard to think of any reason that is more sufficient than this."

Neo's teasing made Nikolai somewhat embarrassed, but in the end he said: "Please" and walked away. Three sets of rune scrolls obviously belonged to this loyal dog, ah no, loyal wolf.

Neo's eyes returned from the distant Nikolay to the two men in front of him. The coach just let go and ran away, but these two people looked at ease, as if this should be the case. What can Neo say? He can only secretly

Zanke Liuliu is really a first-class person. Look at this subordinate, how well brainwashed he is! Even if he sells it, he will count the money for his master!

This is obviously not a time when there is too much free time for random thoughts. Both Gusby and Neo have the basic qualities of a commander and are not stage frightened. "Oleg, please bring a few good players to take care of those people, Grot."

, you organize people to be ready to receive the wounded, Gris, tear open the fence on the east, and arrange archers to assist the retreating rear team."

As the tasks were arranged, the whole camp quickly became active. Adding up the people from Angus and Neo, there were basically more combatants and non-combatants on one side. Although there was dissatisfaction, trouble was already coming, and there was no way to hide away.

, we can only work together to overcome difficulties, and for most people, there is still a cognitive basis of "the only way to survive is to stick together as a team"

Trivial matters such as making a living as coolies and caring for the wounded are naturally handled by non-combatants. Oleg brought more than 10 of the best Westwind Werewolves to take care of him. In fact, the road is quite narrow, and in some places it is not even 4 meters wide.

Not enough. Generally, 2 people are enough to guard the road. More than 10 people are indeed more than enough.

Not long after the car wall blocking the intersection was opened, the first group of refugees arrived. Their actual situation was worse than what they had seen from a distance. If they were barefoot, they might have lost their shoes while running, then only

Wearing underwear and not even having a weapon left Neo speechless. "You have the nerve to take off your clothes and sleep with them open like this today. How strong are you?"

The arrival of the refugees also brought noise into the camp. Some were calling for doctors, some were moaning in pain, some were looking for someone, some were shouting in panic, all kinds of noises. After all, Neo had specially sent someone to keep an eye on the placement of these people.

problem, the situation quickly stabilized

At this time, the second group of people arrived. This group was larger in number, with more than 30 people, of which about 23 were patrols. Neo made a rough estimate, including the group at the rear, the losses of the patrols should only be

Individually, relatively speaking, the soldiers in these places are indeed much stronger than the ordinary escorts.

"Who is the person in charge here?" someone asked in a loud voice, striding from the entrance.

"I am." Neo's eyes were withdrawn from the forefront of the battle. More than 10 Westwind werewolves headed by Oleg had replaced the patrols at the rear and fought against the monsters. With the help of several focused fire attacks,

Able to shine, Neo could vaguely see the face of the monster. It was a very strange existence. At first glance, it seemed to be the animal form of a human being. It was mainly reflected in the layout of its limbs and its behavior, but Neo took a closer look.

After thinking about it, I realized that there should be no necessary relationship between these monsters and humans. There are too many places that are specious. It can only be said that the combat effectiveness of a single humanoid body seems to be that much, but the number and bravery are indeed impressive. Neo can

I could feel that there were probably 20,000 or 3,000 people gathered on that dark mainland highway.

"According to the security regulations of the Sylfanis Territory, all combatants in your team are under my temporary control. All non-combatants are obliged to assist in combat. At the same time, I and the combat forces I command will be responsible for the safety of all non-combatants.

..." The patrol commander, who was wearing a leather armor splattered with monster blood and carrying a broad sword with a cold light, read out the order as soon as he came up, and his tone was very tough.

"The order does exist," Nancy reported to Neo. "The team that is responsible for intercepting is led by Oleg. The person responsible for arranging the personnel is the warlock Grot. The person in charge of handling chores over there is Gris. You are now

It's the commander." Neo didn't waste any words when he arrived. He simply pointed out the three leaders and handed over the command.

"Very good, you will get a Medal of Thorns"

The Medal of Thorns is the lowest level medal of bravery awarded to the people in the alliance. It is not just a mere reputation and glory, but also comes with many benefits, such as various priorities. Of course, Neo understands this patrol...

He glanced at the man's shoulders and collar, well, Lieutenant, this guy is just trying to comfort him, and most likely he's following a 'set meal program'. However, this set of things also comes from one side.

It reflects the improvement of the alliance's military system. Even if you have little ability, you can effectively solve many problems by following the instructions and following this package.

Sure enough, the lieutenant took over the battle power very quickly, with regulations on one side and glory on the other. He spoke in a clear and logical manner. It seemed that as long as he followed what he said, it would be easy to get through the night. Although Neo felt that he had a "package program"

That kind of stiffness, but it must be admitted that this does not affect the overall situation. People were indeed frightened by the lieutenant's thunder and rain, and quickly recognized this 'leader'

Of course, it's not without its thorns.

"Mr. Goosby, according to my master's original order, we only follow your orders." As a spell caster, Warlock Grote had that intellectual, elegant, and gentle demeanor at that time, but his bright purple pupils seemed

It's too weird, but it also shows that the special warlocks of their bloodline generally have special bloodline as a guarantee of awakening the ability to cast spells.

"My order is to obey the order and cooperate with the lieutenant and you, Oleg..." Neo turned to the werewolf leader who came with him and said: "I have seen more in you and your brother.

It has a strong military atmosphere, and the action of covering the rear just now is also very impressive, but I still suggest to be patient and give this lieutenant some trust."

Neo thought to himself: "I'm afraid your master already knew what kind of person the leader of these patrols was, and knew that he would be snatched away by this lieutenant before he even had time to warm up. That's why he seemingly readily gave up the command."

If you leave it to me temporarily and I want to interfere with it, then you really don't understand the current affairs."

On the other hand, Gris also came to ask Neo, and Neo said: "Tell the brothers to be smart and don't disappear in public. Use the scroll as the last resort to save your life. It will be easier to succeed if you take advantage of the chaos."

"I understand, mine owner"

Looking at Gris who was leaving, Neo's eyes flickered, "It's easy to tell whether you're obedient or not, and the treatment will naturally be very different..."

The monsters were blocked on the long and narrow ridge. The refugees were finally able to take a breather, rescue the injured, and allocate supplies. The combatants took turns to go into battle. Although the resistance was not easy, they stabilized their position.

However, people like Neo and Oleg know that the current stability is only temporary. There are more than 200 victims left in the camp near the fissure, as well as the horses being driven west. These are enough for those monsters.

I chewed them for a while, but these were not enough to satisfy the needs of those monsters. There were really many of them. According to people who escaped from the crack in the ground, those bats and swallows never entered the crack of light as if they had thrown themselves into the forest.

Soon, at the same time that blood was rising into the sky, this kind of monsters kept flashing out of the red light. If they were those bats that were transformed by the dark rot energy, then the number would be really disappointing.

What Neo was thinking about was not just quantity. Nancy once said that blood food can make low-level chaos monsters evolve. When those monsters eat and digest that batch of blood food, a group of stronger ones will be born. Now these monsters

The average combat power is almost equivalent to that of a level 3 fighter, so the evolved ones are likely to break through level 5. Even if they wait until level 4, it will be possible to quickly climb the cliff, and this place will become an isolated island submerged by the sea of ​​monsters. Then

is the real crisis

What was even more depressing was that Neo didn't have to worry about this possibility not coming true. He paid special attention to the battle on the narrow ridge. The monsters that were killed were dragged down by their own kind and seemed to have eaten him.

After asking Nancy about this, Nancy told him that this kind of chewing ingests magical elements, which is another path of evolution. Compared with swallowing blood food, this should increase the upper limit of growth, which means,

A leader will be born...

The demons do not have strict discipline as a constraint, and the cruelty of their survival system is appalling. They are definitely a typical representative of unscrupulous means. Neo believes that the inference that Nancy's correction value is not high is reasonable. Then, according to this theory, these monsters are very likely to

The Eighty-nine will become stronger as the war progresses. On the other hand, even if there is a reduction in numbers, our side will not be able to enjoy the corresponding benefits. For our side, the number of these enemies will always be in a saturated state.

"Sir, I think we need to limit the use of combat energy. It is best to terminate the external combat energy attack. I know it sounds easy to say, but there are still 2 hours until midnight, and defending until dawn may not mean victory. These

Is this guy really afraid of the sun? I have to wonder”

The lieutenant had a sullen face and did not directly draw any conclusions about the battle on the front line. He actually observed carefully. Although he did not understand it as deeply as Neo, he also vaguely sensed that these monsters devouring blood and other similar species were definitely not a good idea. As for the number, as

As a member of the team that broke out, he naturally had more say than Neo. To be honest, they were originally planning to break out directly. Unfortunately, on the mainland highway, it felt like it was already filled with monsters. Everything in their field of vision was filled with monsters.

All in all, the cost of breaking through and advancing was unbearable. In desperation, he chose to ride a horse and stick to the danger to wait for help.

Of course, the most regrettable thing is the crack. It is close to Yanshao Valley but far away from Colander Valley. It is unrealistic to expect someone to come to the rescue at night. Moreover, the number of these monsters is not something that one or two squadrons can eat.

However, not using combat energy to externalize means close combat. These monsters move quickly and quickly, and their claws have armor-breaking effects. Although they are the lowest level, they are still a big threat, not to mention they are poisonous. If

Therefore, the main combat power of level 5 or above is injured, but the gain outweighs the gain.

Neo could more or less guess the main reason why the lieutenant had difficulty making a choice. He also knew very well that these patrols were still fighting on horseback, light cavalry, or second-line troops. Although the Westwind werewolves were good at ground combat, they were also violent.

Fighting, the armor configuration on their bodies is not as good as that of patrolmen wearing leather armor. Look at the monster. The 4 or 5 meter wide ridge can actually reach the attack density of 10 monsters. It is really filling it with flesh and blood.

There are no healers, but only two doctors, and there is no sharp long-range strike force. In this case, fighting closely would be life-threatening.

"Then ask Grote to blow up the Qiujiang Road and enter the next stage in advance," Neo said.

Spending time, delaying time, naturally stretching, holding various chips in hand, not rushing to pile them up, but whenever I can't hold on any longer, take a moment, take a breath, and cheer up yourself to blow up the ridge.

The temporary blocking effect also accelerates and intensifies the movements of the monsters. In Neo's view, there is still value in digging deeper into one's own combat power. Doing so is a bit premature.

The lieutenant thought for a while and said to the adjutant beside him: "Go and call Grote"...

Grot is a well-known Earth Fire Elemental Warlock. One of his ancestors was once an 'Elemental Body'. His bloodline power was awakened at the age of 12. He was guided and protected by someone. There were no big setbacks in his growth process until he was 18 years old when his bloodline power was fully awakened.

It is a spellcasting profession that relies on "comprehension". It is a typical profession that requires traveling thousands of miles. Grott is 26 years old this year and has 8 years of travel experience. He is a level 7 professional and is considered young. For his spellcasting process

It's neither weird nor painful. Amidst the powerful shouts, burning lava rocks condensed in the air and then smashed hard against the ridge.

Neo watched clearly from the sidelines. This was not a meteorite. It didn't have the height, speed, or power. It was just a mixture of earth and fire that was condensed like a lava bomb.

Boom! Lava burst out, fire clouds rolled, and black smoke rose, killing and blowing up more than a dozen monsters. It also illuminated a relatively wide area, allowing people on the top of the island-like hill to witness the explosion on the mainland highway.

Enemies that are so densely packed that you can’t even count them

Neo didn't need to look to know that the number of monsters had doubled. He could no longer estimate the number of monsters with his ears and sense of smell. It was obvious that in such a period of time, these guys had multiplied at least several times.

While Grot was throwing lava bombs, Neo took out the Boiling Blood Ring and released the many faces and blood guards. Although he still had a blood rock puppet and a huge slag blood puppet in his hand, they were all consumables, and

The main soul of the relatively fragile Blood Guard is the mutated wild howler. It has not been completely conquered to this day, but it can be sent to fight to kill and absorb. When it comes to energy plunder, the methods of these two guys are by no means more serious than those monsters.

Neo also knew very well that the many faces and blood guards were far from enough to affect the situation of the battle. That is to say, they could just catch the autumn wind, take advantage, and make a fortune on the edge of the monster group.

The third lava bomb over there has been used, and large gaps nearly ten meters deep and more than seven meters wide were blasted out on the hilly ridge road. The road was basically cut off. The monsters tried to manipulate it.
