Luke and others encountered three full rounds of battles from the mansion ninjas. It seemed that this was a necessary condition to meet the regional BOSS.
The total amount of monsters refreshed is 12*3, which is exactly 6 times that of Luke and his party, but their refresh method highlights a gourd baby saving grandpa.
If thirty or so people swarm forward, Luke and his team may win in the end, but the process will definitely not be that simple, and more red and blue bottles will definitely be consumed.
However, their appearance in batches only gave Luke and the others, or to be precise, a chance for Luke, a pure newcomer, to strengthen their training.
Monster ninjas have more agile skills and sharper murderous aura than gangsters. Although the black hottie kills them like melons and vegetables, they are quite difficult enemies for Luke.
Let's put it this way, they are black hotties with no wakizashi blocking ability and lower overall strength.
It's reliable as a teammate, but it's a real nightmare when it's an enemy, even if it's just a low-end version in swarms.
Luke admitted that he was no match for the monster ninja now.
Whether it is a combination of a desperate machine gun that uses a tower shield and an S stick to shoot missiles, or a combination of a desperate berserker with a staff and a club, it is useless. The former will be dodged more quickly, while the latter is a pure shuriken. target.
Luke doesn't have the blocking skills of the black hottie.
If Luke had to gain anything here, it would probably be that he had a deeper understanding of knife wounds and punctures, as well as more tolerance for pain.
The moment the blade cuts through the skin, it is cold and painless. The pain will only come up when you notice the blood flowing or during a gap in the battle.
Compared to a slash with a ninja sword, the pain is more obvious when hit by a shuriken.
When faced with this situation, protecting your face, especially your eyes, becomes the key to fighting back.
At this time, Luke even hoped to exchange the heavy green tower shield for an ordinary white buckler.
It's just that the hot black girl killed her too quickly, and I don't know how Ya's childhood shadow was formed. No matter how you look at it, she got a lot of happiness from the act of "killing ninjas".
Is it some kind of compensatory behavior?
...Wouldn't it be bad for Yagyu to hide randomly?
For the first time, Luke had the idea that the originally scheduled NPC summoned beast companion might be killed by his teammates in the chaos.
The paper sliding door filled with unknown number of monster ninjas was opened again, but this time, it was no longer the monster ninjas in blue and yellow clothes, but the colors and details of the night clothes were more unique, and there were also patterns on the masks and hoods. With additional metal decoration, the head looks very similar to the ninja leader "Slade".
He is the leader of the Yagyu branch of the Iga ninjas - Yagyu Ranzo.
The "Iga" here is not a fabrication, but is mentioned in disguise in the game plot.
If your team's Yagyu Ranzo is still alive after clearing the level normally, the character story will mention that after the incident, Ranzo returned to the JP area and went to challenge his old rival "Koga".
Therefore, his identity as an Iga ninja who was opposed to Koga basically disappeared.
In fact, Luke knew that the Double Dragon 3 version of Box Story actually came with a small story comic with a manual function, which recorded all the character designs, game modes, move names, etc. in great detail. s things.
Even the moves of the Double Dragon brothers have some very average but also quite interesting names.
It seems to be just an ordinary flying kick with the domineering name of "Flying Dragon Kick and Tail", but it is obviously just a flying kick that jumps into the hands of his companions and uses the force to lift it in the opposite direction, but it has the name of "Double Flying Triple Kick".
But there is only 1 Hit in the game? Where did Sanlian come from?
It's a pity that this kind of old stuff that says it all in a box is sometimes difficult to get even if you have money. Luke has never touched the actual one and has only seen other people's scanned copies online.
Yagyu Ranzou glanced around and took in all the corpses of the monster ninjas, but he hardly had any big reaction. Instead, after a circle, he fixed on the black hot girl who was wiping the blood of the wakizashi with the corpse night suit. , his eyes sharpened suddenly.
But there was also confusion in this sharp gaze that could not be concealed.
The main source of his confusion was the hot black girl's dress that was too advanced.
Sailor suit, tanning powder, mountain makeup, fluorescent knife...
Ranzo Yagyu, a very traditional ninja, had his brain CPU overloaded at this time, and his outlook on life was severely impacted. He was unable to combine these elements with a powerful ninja.
Luke can quite understand Ranzang's mood at this time, because the overall dress of the black hottie does have a very strong "dressed like a person in the cutscene" style, and Luke also pinches the dress with his eyes closed. Not such an outrageous type.
"...Have the Koga ninja fallen so frightened!?"
After a while, Luan Zang's lips that had been trembling under the mask for a long time squeezed out a sentence with great difficulty.
Obviously, he directly mistook the black hottie for his nemesis, a member of the Koga ninja clan.
With such outstanding skills and superb shuriken skills, he killed Iga ninjas without mercy. It's no wonder that Ranzou would admit his mistake.
But what he didn't know was that if a Koga monster ninja really appeared at this moment, this girl would be able to kill him without fail.
However, the black hottie had no intention of explaining herself.
She kicked aside the corpse in front of her that was being used to clean the knife, and then pointed the fluorescent wakizashi, who had become even more demonic inexplicably, directly at Ranzo.
"Are you the leader of this garbage? Let's have a friendly ninja exchange~
...The kind with blood♡"
Along with the bloody lines of the black hot girl, a cold air emerged from Yagyu Ranzou's tailbone and went straight to Tianling Gai. This feeling made him press one hand on the ninja sword he was carrying on his back. On the handle.
Like facing a formidable enemy!
"Does this little girl do this often?"
Not sure whether it was because he was tired or frightened, Luke, who was sweating on his forehead, tilted his neck and asked Joey in a lowered voice.
"...Although she had been ill before, this time it was particularly serious."
Although Joey said this, one hand was already ready to take out the elf ball.
She is also very concerned about her best friend's mental state.
At this moment, Chen Jingming, who saw that the black hot girl was already fighting with Yagyu Ranzo, suddenly spoke.
"Brother Lu."
"Um?"
"Did you put the Rosetta Stone that you broke the seal on her body?"
Hearing Chen Jingming's question, Luke turned his eyes to Joey, and then saw her nodding.
"Originally, we planned to let you keep it and then make a unified decision, but as soon as we turned around, we forgot that the emerald was indeed still on her body, and it was installed in the empty slot of the three-link bomb tank."
Luke did not rush to complain about the operation of putting gems and bombs together, but asked Chen Jingming with doubts on his face.
"Old Chen, what do you mean by breaking the seal?"
"This was a funerary object that was originally placed in the Egyptian pyramid. It belonged to Queen Marie. How could it be an ordinary thing?
If I hadn't been sure that the leaked Rosetta Stone had been sealed by an alchemist, even I wouldn't have dared to carry it around.
It's just that I have never seen the gem seal unlocked. I don't know exactly what will happen, but it seems that this little girl has been affected to some extent. "
As soon as Chen Jingming finished speaking, a new message record popped up in front of Luke.
