Chapter 978
978 Nowhere to escape (1)
“Bang”
After a muffled sound, a series of screams rang out.
Under a large tree in the dense forest, a group of adventurers lay on the ground, their eyes squirming like mosquitoes, groaning in pain.
Someone stood up unsteadily, but he fell to the ground after taking a few steps.
“Robert, what’s with your damn spell? I was almost killed by a tree!”
The dragonkin in the adventurer team had good physical fitness. He quickly overcame the feeling of dizziness and stood up from the ground, shouting at the wizard who had torn the scroll earlier.
The mage by the name of Robert took a deep breath and stood up with difficulty. He did not forget to Pat the dirt off his body.
Although he was trying his best to maintain his composure, his legs were still trembling, and he looked very embarrassed.
“How would I know that this spell scroll would be so difficult to control? after all, I’ve never had the chance to use it ever since I got it!”
Robert explained with a hint of grievance in his tone.
alright, that’s enough. If it wasn’t for Robert, we wouldn’t have been able to escape!
The Tigermen Captain snorted and stopped the quarrel between his two team members. He looked around, trying to estimate their current location.
we have to leave immediately. Otherwise, those otherworldly demons will definitely catch up with us. We won’t be as lucky as we were just now!
Hearing this, everyone’s expression tensed up. Without any hesitation, they stood up and followed the Tigermen Captain in the direction of Snow City.
They were still talking in low voices as they walked.
“Will the green-eyed man lose his life in the hands of those otherworldly demons?”
who knows? may the gods bless that unlucky fellow and allow him to hold on until we bring reinforcements to save him!
do you think those black-armored cultivators are really from the heavenly demon race? they’re just like us, just some powerful cultivators.
who knows? maybe they’re just ordinary cultivators, but they’ve become the claws and teeth of the otherworldly demons!
I think so, but their weapons are really good, and their strength is also quite good. If we didn’t put on a show at the beginning, I think we wouldn’t have been able to get out of hewang village!
“Hehe, no matter what, we’ve struck it big this time.”
When they thought of the generous reward, everyone’s spirits were lifted, and their speed could not help but increase a bit.
However, as they walked, they suddenly stopped and looked at the empty space in the forest in front of them with gloomy expressions.
In the open space of the forest, there were uneven tree stumps and wild flowers and green grass growing around it. The sunlight shone on this place, making it look very beautiful.
More than a dozen cultivators in black armor were sitting on tree stumps and looking at the adventurer team that had just appeared.
“Fortunately, I didn’t wait for nothing. You’re finally here!”
A black-armored cultivator stood up from a tree stump and slowly walked over under the gaze of the adventurer team members. He spoke in a somewhat mocking tone.
Unlike the other cultivators who were fully covered in armor, this young cultivator didn’t wear a smooth black helmet. Instead, his face was exposed.
This was a rather handsome face, with red lips and white teeth. There was a smile at the corner of his mouth, and one look at him would make people feel good.
As if he had met an old friend, he looked at the adventurer team’s members, whose expressions were getting uglier and uglier, and said in a warm tone, ” I’ll give you two choices now. You can either surrender or be killed by us. You only have ten seconds to consider!
The young cultivator’s tone was warm, and his smile was kind. However, the contents of his words made the members of the adventurer team nervous.
They looked at the young man as if they were facing a great enemy. The other party’s Lord-tier cultivation gave them a huge pressure.
The Tigermen Captain laughed bitterly. He hesitated for a moment before saying, ” “We choose Yingluo.”
f * ck him! I’ll die either way. I’ll go all out!
Before the Tiger man Captain could finish his sentence, the violent dragonkin behind him had already jumped out and slashed at the young cultivator with his saber.
“Don’t worry about me, you guys run!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the dragonkin’s saber had already landed in front of the young cultivator. However, the young cultivator sneered and caught it.
Holding the saber in one hand, the young cultivator’s smile gradually turned cold, and a trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes.
“Is this your choice? not a bad one!”
As soon as he finished his words, a crisp sound was heard. The dragonkin’s heavy saber was broken by the young cultivator!
This scene made the hearts of the adventurer team members Twitch.
A bitter smile flashed across the Tiger captain’s face, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into determination. At this point, they had no other choice.
“Everyone, cover the little bird!”
These words came out of his mouth again, but it was all an act in River View Village, and now it was real.
In this life-and-death moment, the team members didn’t hesitate at all. They all rushed forward with a shout and pounced on the young cultivator.
The female swordsman named little bird gritted her teeth and immediately rushed in the opposite direction. She was about to disappear into the dense forest.
However, at this moment, two more Holy Dragon City cultivators appeared from the forest and blocked the bird’s path.
The bird’s reaction was extremely fast. It immediately pulled out two Flying Daggers from its waist and threw them at the cultivators who were blocking its way.
However, the Holy Dragon City cultivators were even faster. The moment the flying Daggers were shot out, a cultivator rushed over like a ghost and attacked the back of the bird’s neck.
If he was hit by this attack, he would be seriously injured even if he didn’t die!
The little bird let out a soft cry. Its body was really like an agile little bird, avoiding the attack at an unbelievable angle, and at the same time landing on a big tree.
Just as the little bird neared the tree, a strange scene appeared. Her figure actually fused with the tree and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye!
No wonder the Tigerman Captain had the bird retreat. She had the ability to hide her tracks with the trees!
This scene was also seen by the members of the adventurer team, and a trace of a gratified smile appeared on the corners of their mouths at the same time. As long as the bird could escape, their efforts would not be in vain.
As adventurers, sooner or later, they would end up dying. However, with the little bird helping them take care of their family, they could rest assured.
The sound of weapons clashing could be heard. The Tigermen Captain of the adventurer team, who was still fighting, finally fell to the ground slowly. The heavy armor on his body was also broken.
Looking at the Holy Dragon City cultivators standing around with blood-dripping battle sabers in their hands, the Tiger-Man Captain laughed bitterly, blood spurting from his mouth.
“You think your death was worth it, because your sacrifice allowed your companion to escape, don’t you?”
The handsome young lord of the Holy Dragon City walked over and looked down at the Tigermen Captain, a mocking smile on his face.
The leader of the Tiger men was speechless, but his expression and eyes clearly showed that he agreed with the young cultivator’s question. There was even a hint of provocation and pride in his eyes.
The young cultivator shook his head and pointed to the edge of the forest with a trace of regret in his voice.
“Actually, I really wanted to let that girl go, but my team members definitely wouldn’t allow it, so I could only bring her back!”
The Tiger captain’s eyes immediately widened. He desperately turned his head and looked in the direction the young cultivator was pointing.
Two Holy Dragon City cultivators were slowly walking over from the knee-high weeds. One of them was carrying a woman covered in blood, her life or death unknown.
“Little bird Qianqian”
The Tiger Captain roared and spat out another mouthful of blood. With an unwilling expression, he fainted.
