Iron Armor Curse is a purely defensive skill. It requires 100 points of dark energy to complete the dark energy formula. After ordinary people use it, it is enough to withstand hot weapon attacks at close range.
However, this skill is very powerful, but its endurance is not very good.
It is not like physical enhancement, which can continue to take effect within an hour after being blessed.
Instead, after taking effect for a certain number of times, the blessing state will slowly weaken until it disappears.
The specific number of attacks it can withstand will change depending on the damage suffered.
At this moment, Weiss was caught in a hard fight, and the effect of the armor spell on his body began to gradually weaken under the continuous triggers.
"Uh-huh!"
Another cold light flashed, and a monster hit his back with a sneak attack, scratching him with a huge wound.
"Damn it! The iron armor spell has expired! Mikel, hurry up and leave, I will cover your retreat!"
Wes shouted loudly to his teammates.
Beside him, several aberrations had surrounded him.
At the beginning of the battle, there were only five monsters, but as a result, there were more and more monsters. By this time, the number of monsters around him had grown to seven. This was after he had just killed three of them with all his strength.
This is different from the situation when Beru easily killed many of them by himself.
Beru had a good location at the beginning. He only had to hold on to a small door frame in front of him, and he would always have to face only one enemy.
Moreover, there were people from the Hurricane Team beside him to help him push furniture to block the way.
Now, the environment where Wes is located is quite unfavorable. In this lush forest, monsters have become very comfortable walking through it.
Sneak attacks, sieges, and strong attacks are all overwhelming.
Weiss needs to be surrounded by several monsters at any time, and he must always be wary of attacks from the dark.
In addition, he has to protect Mikel. Even if he, a top hunter, activates a series of states such as physical enhancement, he will inevitably find himself in a tough battle.
Seizing an opportunity, Wes pounced on a monster and then struggled with it.
While rolling, he threw out several heavy punches, blowing the opponent's head off.
"boom!"
A sniper rifle sounded not far away, and a mutant that was about to take advantage of the opportunity to attack was blown up in the air, and its headless body fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
"Huhuhu~"
Weiss was breathing heavily. His face was now covered with blood, both his own and the monster's. He looked particularly ferocious.
The automatic rifle in his hand has long been empty of bullets, and the small dagger he carries has no lethality. It is no threat to this monster that will not die unless its head is completely destroyed.
He is now a little envious of the abilities used by the awakened ones in the organization.
If a true awakener were here, he could summon a mysterious weapon, which would be perfect to use against monsters in this situation.
It's a pity that he can only think about it now, and he doesn't even have time to think about this simple idea.
After all, the fighting situation around him was tense, and he had no time to be distracted.
"Silla! Be careful! There are two guys going to your side! They are at your three o'clock and nine o'clock directions respectively!"
With silvery light shining in Weiss's eyes, he revealed the whereabouts of the two sneaky monsters to his teammates.
Not long after he finished speaking, there was a strong explosion from Siro's side. Two monsters who were about to launch a sneak attack fell into Anna's trap and were blown to pieces.
At this time, Miguel had already joined two other teammates. Weiss finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, then opened his arms and shouted loudly at the surrounding aberrations:
"Hey! Grandchildren! Grandpa is leaving now. If you have the guts, come and chase me! Don't hide behind the tree like a turtle!"
Of course, the monsters couldn't understand what he said, but when they saw him giving up the fight, turning around and running away in one direction, they still instinctively chased after him.
At this moment, dozens of figures rushed out.
It was obvious that many of the guys who had been hiding behind the trees finally showed up.
These monsters are very fast, which is an advantage in size. With their slender legs and running on all fours, they can easily catch up with Weiss in front of them.
Weiss dodged several times in a row, avoiding sneak attacks from behind. He accidentally fell down, and he was almost running on both hands and feet when he got to the back.
"Attention! They are coming! Anna! Success or failure depends on this! This time it depends on you!"
On the other side, Anna was hiding under a big tree, with a machine full of detonation buttons in front of her.
There was sweat on her forehead, and her eyes were fixed on the direction in which Weiss was running through the thermal imaging camera.
Although the thermal imaging cannot see the presence of the aberration, she can use Weiss to confirm the monster's location and deliver a fatal blow.
"Now! Detonate!"
Finally, Wes dashed to safety, with the monsters following close behind.
Anna received the order and began to quickly operate the machine in front of her with her hands.
Along with her movements, a series of explosions sounded in the woods. From near to far and from the inside out, all the aberrations that came to pursue were blown into a pile of minced meat, one by one.
"Boom boom boom boom boom!"
The deafening explosion resounded throughout the woods and could be heard even in the small town of Hachitutur a few kilometers away.
When the smoke and dust dissipated, what came into view was a messy scene.
The woods ahead were in a state of disarray. The trees were tilted and collapsed, and the soil was pouring out. The wildfire team was even more disgraced, as if they had just experienced a sandstorm.
"Shet! Bah, bah, bah...damn monster...is it finally over...bah, bah..."
Silla slid down from the tree where he was hiding, opened his mouth and stuck out several mouthfuls of mud.
"Huh~"
Several other people also stood up, equally embarrassed.
"Ana, you guys bandage Miguel's wound first, and I'll go see if there are any fish that have slipped through the net nearby."
Weiss said and walked out, walking around the area near the cabin. After confirming that there were no aberrations, he breathed a sigh of relief.
After using disinfection equipment to treat the injuries, everyone went to the area washed by the explosion to see if they could find any clues from the monster.
"Eh? Is this Sizal?"
Weiss walked up to a relatively complete corpse and looked at the clothes on the other person's body. They were indeed the same as what Sizal once wore.
"Sure enough, he has turned into a monster..."
Anna also came over, looked at the corpses on the ground, and said:
"The clothes worn by these aberrations should all be the same uniform. Only Xizal is different from them. Could it be that they have been in contact with them before? Or have they had the same experience...?"
"These are research clothes."
Miguel walked over with his arms folded. His facial paralysis prevented him from showing any pain, and he still had a cold look on his face.
"The white background fabric, the special pockets, and the three-petal flower pattern on the clothes, I have seen these people, they are from a research institute called the Pansy Research Institute in Gurdaghene."
"Pansy? What type of establishment is this?"
Miguel found a stone to sit on, took out a bottle of water from his backpack and took a few sips before saying:
"The Pansy Research Institute, if I remember correctly, is a biopharmaceutical research institute that was established twelve years ago and has been conducting pharmaceutical research."
"Biopharmaceutical facility?"
Silla on the side immediately thought of something and said:
"I know, these aberrations must have been created by them! Isn't it like this in the movies? Some biochemical companies that like to commit suicide specialize in these researches, and they might create some kind of monster."
However, Miguel shook his head and said:
"I have investigated and found that Pansy Company has a clean record and went bankrupt three months ago... Moreover, they are a biopharmaceutical research institution, not a... biochemical laboratory... Siro, you have watched too many movies. .”
Miguel said a lot in one rare breath, denying Silla's guess.
"Hey, Miguel, are you so sure that this matter has nothing to do with them? How do you explain the uniforms of these researchers? You don't want to tell me that this is all a coincidence, do you?"
Silla said unconvinced.
Beside them, Wes suddenly interrupted them.
"Stop arguing, let's go take a look in the house now and look for any clues."
The group abandoned the bodies here and walked towards the cabin.
The cabin is some distance away from where the people are now, but it was not affected by the explosion just now.
Several people walked over and saw a bloody scene. The corpses of animals and humans were mixed together. The room was full of blood. It was obviously regarded as a nest-like existence by monsters.
"This smell... is really disgusting!"
Silla covered her mouth, unable to bear the air around her.
"Forget it, I won't go in...I'll help you guard outside..."
Anna raised her foot halfway and then took it back.
There's no way around it, it's so dirty here and there's absolutely no place to set foot.
The three men walked in and began to rummage through the small house.
"Fake! These beasts deserve to die! It's hard to imagine what happened to those people before they died."
"Damn! What is this! It's disgusting!"
"Ah! I swear! I will never come to a place like this again in my life!"
"Shet! If someone discusses the topic of hell with me in the future, I will definitely bring him here to see what the real hell is!"
"..."
Ciro's complaints would be heard in the room from time to time, and both Wes and Miguel were annoyed by him.
Suddenly, the complaints stopped and were replaced by excited shouts.
"Come and see what I found!"
After hearing this, the two people immediately put down what they were holding and walked over. Weiss flipped through a small notebook in Silla's hand and said in surprise:
"This is a diary? Xizal's diary!?"
"Haha, yes, a diary, I found it there."
Weiss looked in the direction he pointed, and what he saw was an indescribable mess.
He looked at the viscous liquid on his hand again, and suddenly felt nauseous.
"Farke!"
Cursing secretly, he didn't care about these trivial things and quickly opened it to check.
At the front of the diary are some daily chores, as well as the completion of bounty tasks, and some records of fund receipts.
The situation lasted until fifteen days ago.
"October 21st, overcast... I found a strange prey when I came back today. It was bleeding and looked seriously injured. I knew it was a mutated creature that the Wildfire Tavern was offering a reward for. I I plan to see if there is a chance to seize it..."
"October 22nd, Qing... That snake is too fast, I can't keep up. But I know it will come to me. There is only bloodthirsty greed in its eyes when it looks at me. It will definitely come. …”
"October 23, Qing...Sure enough, my guess was correct, the snake really came over. It fell into the death trap I carefully prepared for it, but what I have to say is that the vitality of this monster It’s really too strong. Under that kind of injury, it actually lasted for so long..."
"October 24th, Qing... I contacted the Wildfire Tavern in Hurghada, and Weiss accepted the trophy. I received a reward of 100,000 yuan, haha! I can have a good time again this month. !”
"October 25th, cloudy... Damn, I feel a little uncomfortable. I must have a fever today. I took some medicine and vomited it all. It seems that the fun plan for the evening can only be cancelled..."
"October 26th, rain... Today a group of people wearing white clothes came. They asked me about the whereabouts of the snake, and asked me if I had seen a stone with red lines. It was really baffling. How could I You may have seen something like that..."
"On October 27th, it rained... The group of people came again. They seemed to have a fever, and their condition was as bad as mine. They said they came from a secret base ten kilometers away in the south and were tracking down the lost items... But, what does this have to do with me..."
"October 28th, rain... I felt like I was dying. My vision was getting blurry. When I opened my eyes, I could only see a patch of red, and my ears couldn't hear clearly. I wanted to eat, and eat a lot. I'm so hungry... I don't know how long I can hold on... Maybe those people are right, I really touched some weird things unknowingly... Haha, This damn world, this damn rain..."
"..."
The diary was gone when it arrived here. Weiss frowned at the contents, and the room fell into silence for a while.
"It seems that Sizal was indeed affected by something. If it is as described in his diary, the culprit is the fragment brought out of the giant snake..."
Thinking of this, Weiss couldn't help but recall the scene when he first saw the fragment.
It was a feeling that made his heart palpitate. When his eyes came into contact with it, he even felt a hint of chaos and madness.
Fortunately, he put the fragment into the box as soon as possible and did not have any more contact with it.
Thinking about it now, I was actually scared for a while.
If he hadn't done that at that time, I'm afraid he would have ended up like Xizar now.
