The Night Demon is dead. Some of the dark creatures gathered by the Night Demon fled, and some continued to attack without any brains. The brainless creatures are generally weaker. Those weak dark creatures were quickly eliminated. Raymond They did not clean up the scene, but quickly came to Zheng Yichen's side.
"This kind of wound doesn't seem to be left by a normal weapon." John checked the wounds on the Night Demon and said with some amazement. They had only thought it was possible whether Zheng Yichen could defeat the Night Demon.
John knew very well that he would not be able to survive against such an opponent. He could struggle to escape, but if he was caught, he would definitely be dead.
But such a powerful creature was actually killed.
"I have a Hell Sword that I snatched from the Headless Horseman." Zheng Yichen said. The demon hunters present were all veterans. Even if he deliberately damaged the wounds on the Night Demon, he could not completely eliminate the traces. It was better to explain it directly.
"...So that's it." John took a deep look at the sword Zheng Yichen was carrying. No wonder Zheng Yichen had never used that weapon in many commissions. At most, he only used the very sharp tip.
He had heard of the sword of the Headless Horseman, and he also knew that the owner of that weapon would not die well. But now that he could successfully eliminate the threat of the Night Demon with this sword, he really didn't know what to say.
"Let's leave quickly." Raymond said simply.
Just because the Night Demon is dead doesn't mean it's safe here. The most important thing is to run away quickly. As for Zheng Yichen's use of the Hell Sword, they are companions now, aren't they? The demon hunters are not members of the church. John's attempt to join the church failed. They currently have no relationship with the church and are not taboo about this matter.
After leaving the battle area, Raymond looked at the map, compared it with some reference objects, and sighed: "If there were not these obstacles, according to the itinerary, we would be able to leave the dangerous zone in two days at most."
But now the delay is different, and no one can guarantee that there will be no other obstacles on the way. Along the way, they encountered too many attacks from dark creatures, some in groups, and some suddenly. One jumped out.
"The most important thing now is whether we want to give up this commission..." said the demon hunter in the team.
I knew there was something wrong with the suppressant I was carrying, and the bounty this time was higher than the last time I dealt with the vampire lair. But after encountering a large number of werewolves and night demons, the nature of this commission changed. I had known this was the case. , even if the bounty is doubled, they will not agree easily.
They thought they would encounter some dangers along the way, but they never thought the danger would be so great. Almost extinct night demons appeared, and no one knew what would appear next.
"We have come this far, wouldn't it be a shame to give up?" Another demon hunter said: "If we move forward at the fastest speed now, how long will it take to cross the dangerous zone?"
"It will take three days at the fastest. We have delayed too much progress." John hesitated and then continued: "If we give up the horse, we can advance one day."
With the horses, they had to go around some places that the horses could not pass. Without the horses, they could try to take new roads.
"Captain, what do you think?"
"..." Raymond stared at the black metal box in his hand, with anger on his face: "Give up! We've all come this far. No one is willing to give up. The best thing is to find the Dusk Church. We need an explanation!" "
John no longer hesitated and took out the map: "If we give up the horse, we will go to these places next."
When riding horses, they have to go around in a circle. After abandoning the horses, the road becomes almost a straight line.
When he gave up the horse, Zheng Yichen looked at the horse that helped carry a lot of things. Fortunately, he didn't ride the white horse that Katrina liked so much when he went out this time.
After taking away the things they needed to carry and giving up the horses, their forward speed was obviously reduced a lot, but the route selection became more flexible as a result, and the bumpy terrain they encountered could be passed quickly. Generally speaking, the speed was accelerated. .
There will be some attacks from dark creatures on the road, but as long as there are elites and mini-bosses like werewolves and night demons, it is not that difficult to deal with them.
"We're almost there!" John looked tiredly at a mountain in the distance, which was an important reference on the map: "We will leave the danger zone soon."
Zheng Yichen looked at the mountain and breathed a long sigh of relief. Although he was tired while riding the horse, at least he had a means of transportation. The accumulated fatigue could be easily relieved. But it was different if he had two legs. He had to carry a lot of things with him. , and there are still many dangerous environments that need to be overcome. The two days are the same as the previous week of traveling.
Coupled with the harassment from those dark creatures, Zheng Yichen felt that he had become more and more vicissitudes of life.
The beards on the faces of John and others seemed to have accumulated for two months, and there were even a lot more white hairs.
An arrow suddenly flew over and shot through John's arm.
"Damn it! It's human!
"John, who was attacked, cursed angrily, quickly judged the source of the attack, found a place to avoid it, and broke the crossbow arrow inserted in his arm.
He was still within the acceptance range when he encountered dark creatures, but now he was attacked by people, which made him really angry. There is definitely something wrong with the entrusting employer this time!
Zheng Yichen hid behind a stone and observed the attackers who seemed to have been waiting here for a long time. They were a cavalry squad of more than ten people.
The moment Zheng Yichen showed his head, a crossbow arrow was fired at him. He quickly retracted his head and the crossbow arrow hit the stone. Zheng Yichen glanced at the tail of the crossbow arrow and curled his lips slightly. After all, the crossbow arrow Not bullets.
He could still handle this kind of attack, but a cavalry team with more than ten people would be in trouble. Zheng Yichen touched the Hell Sword he was carrying. Raymond, who was hiding in another place, also noticed Zheng Yichen's actions. The two of them The distance between the people was not too far, so Raymond whispered: "I will cover you later, try to kill those people, and seize their horses!"
"be careful."
Raymond nodded, and made a few gestures to the injured John and the other two demon hunters. When the sound of horse hooves gradually approached, Raymond was the first to rush out, and when he rushed out, he also lost his Two cloth bags came out.
The bag exploded in mid-air, and a large amount of pungent smoke poured out. The smoke was not a smoke bomb. It interfered with the sight of the cavalry, but the interference was limited. When Raymond and the others rushed out, the cavalry began to fire Arrow.
One crossbow arrow hit the suppressor on Raymond's chest, and another crossbow arrow hit Raymond's thigh. John and others also encountered the same attack.
