Chapter 56

Of course, the city lord's hunting team brought the most elite escorts.

Not only the cavalry and the police on the ground, but also a large number of dragoons hovering in the sky, as long as an order is given, they will immediately charge from a high altitude.

But the city lord is in a coma now, and he needs to return to Serancha for further treatment.

After a brief riot, the team quickly and efficiently operated.

The women and children who could not fight were moved to the center of the camp. The priests were a little outside. The outermost layer was the cavalry and nobles, who decisively surrounded the carriage as a simple line of defense.

The dead prey was tentatively thrown at those arms, and almost as soon as they got close, they were directly torn apart by those pale hands.

After discussion, the first vanguard made a tentative attack.

The troop consisted of cavalry and temple guardians, who had their horses ready and charged towards the weird arm.

Ordinary weapons are difficult to cut off these long arms, and only weapons blessed by magic can hurt those arms. After a tentative round of impact, the vanguard retreated safely.

Several arms were cut off, and after those pale arms fell to the ground, they soon turned blue and rotten, as if they had been

But even so, the underground soon stretched out a new arm to complete the cage.

Robin frowned and looked at those arms seriously: "It's long enough to attack us, but they still don't move... What are they waiting for."

"It may be those walking corpses." The garrison captain next to him replied, "It can't be dragged any longer."

Of course Robin knows about this. If there are only elite troops here, then it is the best choice to break through the encirclement directly, but there are women and children with low combat effectiveness behind them...

"I have asked the Dragon Knight to report back, and I believe that support will come soon." Robin said, even so, there was no joy on his face, "The question now is, what is this monster that has never been seen before? What purpose does it serve."

Although Robin said so, he also knew that no matter what the purpose was, if there was a problem with the people here, Serancha would at least be half-broken.

Are you rushing out desperately now, or are you staying here?

Lucia didn't think as much as Robin. She was staying with Flora now, looking at the arms around the camp, but she kept staring at Priest Fast in secret.

Although Priest Fast frowned, he didn't look very nervous. He seemed to walk slowly towards Robin's direction inadvertently.

They were not too far away, and Lucia clearly saw that Priest Fast took out a bottle of sexual red liquid from his pocket and held it carefully in his hand.

what is that?

Lucia's body and brain moved together. Relying on her small agility, she rushed over and looked at the liquid in Fast's hand curiously: "What is this? It's so beautiful?"

Originally, everyone looked nervously at the arms outside, but after Lucia asked this question, some priests still looked over.

After seeing the scarlet liquid in Fast's hand, someone immediately felt that something was wrong: "Fast, what is that?"

"This?" Fast smiled and replied naturally, "This is the enhanced potion I made."

"Is that so?" The priest looked at Fast suspiciously.

"Of course." Fast replied.

The priest was still a little puzzled, but after all, these were all personal cards, so he did not continue to ask.

Fast glanced at Lucia gently: "This is not something children can play with, you know?"

"Understood." Lucia replied obediently, but kept looking at Fast, pretending to be very eager for the potion in his hand.

Just when Lucia was staring at Priest Fast, Robin made up his mind to stop waiting and break through.

After the order was issued, the team adjusted in an orderly manner, and the hunting team was reorganized into an assault formation.

Lucia returned to the middle of the team. After she mounted her horse, she looked for Priest Fast in the crowd again, but found that in this short period of time, he had opened the bottle in his hand and spilled the liquid in it on the ground.

Aware of Lucia's gaze, Priest Fast met Lucia's eyes and smiled slowly at her.

The ground shook, and there was an uneasy sound from the crowd.

The horn of the charge was blown first, and Lucia clenched the reins and ran along with the people around her.

The ground trembled even more, as if something was about to come out.

The well-trained war horses were unmoved in this situation, but some of the protected children in the middle were nervous, their riding skills were deformed, and the team in the middle was in chaos.

It is impossible for them to stop charging and wait for them to adjust. The forward who charged with all his strength has already torn a hole, and those arms are all gushing down as if they were provoked.

The knights maintain the narrow passage with weapons and hands like snakes.

"Ladies and children first!" shouted the garrison captain.

The crowd moved, and Lucia didn't have time to go to Priest Faust, so she rushed out with everyone.

bsp; The flat ground is slowly protruding, as if some huge monster is about to crawl out of the ground, the garrison captain's urging is even more anxious: "Speed ​​up!"

Before the monster appeared, pale tentacles sprang out from the ground, rolling frantically like a whip. Because it appeared so abruptly, many people were rolled up even with their horses.

Mistry narrowly avoided a tentacle and continued to run forward.

Lucia has Mistry, you can take time to look around.

She found that Athos had dismounted, and the pitch-black spear in his hand was extremely sharp, as long as the arms and tentacles that had been chopped by the spear were all cut in half.

Robin was very conspicuous there, surrounded by a whole circle of guards, who were leading him out.

What about Flora?

Lucia's eyes shuttled, and she finally saw Flora who was rolled up in the air. She was rolled up by a tentacle as thick as an arm and directly mentioned in the air.

【Wait a moment. 】

In the chaos, Mistry slowed down.

There were horses passing by constantly around them, and cries for help, cries, and battles were chaotic.

But Mist's voice was still clearly passed into Lucia's mind: [Huh? 】

【is it okay? 】 Lucia looked at Flora.

Needless to say, Mistry immediately understood what Lucia was going to say, and replied: [No problem. 】

The snow-white horse stopped advancing and ran backwards against the flow of people.

He was extremely dexterous, stepping on the tentacles drilled from the ground, using his strength to jump to avoid the oncoming horses, and ran towards the tentacles that were curling Flora.

As the distance drew in, Mistry said: [Lucia, use arrows. 】

【Um. 】 A little light appeared in Lucia's hand, condensed into an arrow of light.

This is one of the prizes of the last card draw event, and there are only three piercing arrows in the entire card pool.

Lucia put the light arrow on the bowstring and aimed at the target.

During the turbulence, Lucia calmed down like never before, all the sounds around her seemed to disappear, and she focused on the target.

The radiant arrow came out from the string, like a shooting star, heading straight for the target, and the tentacles wrapped around Flora were cut in half by the arrow of light.

Flora fell down, and an agile figure jumped between several tentacles, moving up, directly catching Flora who fell.

"Brother?" Lucia widened her eyes in surprise.

"Let's go." Athos didn't say anything to Lucado, he grabbed a horse next to him that had lost its owner, turned over and sat on it.

Lucia took a look and found that some people were still tangled in tentacles, some warriors were trying to rescue them, and most of them were temporarily out of danger.

Before he could think about it, Lucia followed Athos out of the circle of arms, and the formation had been re-formed outside. After Atos sent Lucia, he rushed back into the circle of arms.

The shaking of the ground became stronger and stronger, and the people who escaped were divided.

Some felt that the entire force should be concentrated immediately and returned to Seranga to regroup the troops now.

Others think that waiting for rescue here, after all, the news has been passed to Serancha, it is best to wait for rescue here, after all, they do not know what they will encounter on the road, and it is impossible to just leave those who have not been rescued. people.

Between the disputes between the two sides, finally, the monster that had been trying to get out finally climbed out of the ground.

It was a huge, pale flesh-like monster with countless fine tentacles on its body, and those tentacles were hitting the ground frantically, rolling up everything they touched.

Although it attacks very crazy, those slender tentacles can't seem to completely pull it out from the ground, and can only attack everything around it angrily.

Looking at such a monster, Lucia's heart was about to be lifted, because Athos had not come back, she stared at the monster carefully, and found that there were shadows of warriors fighting all over his body.

Sure enough, there was Athos in it.

"What kind of monster is this?" the priest next to him murmured, "Such a monster... It's unheard of!"

"Have you not seen it before?"

"Yeah." The priest grabbed his hair, "I'm a follower of Naoti, I've never heard of such a monster!"

Naoti is the god of the moon and knowledge. If his followers don't know it, then this kind of monster should never have appeared before.

The priest suddenly seemed to remember something: "No...it seems there is."

"Do you remember? What is this? What's the weakness?" Lucia hurriedly asked.

"No, not this, I thought of an ancient book I read." The priest's expression became solemn.

What kind of ancient books are you talking about at a time like this?

Lucia now just wants to know how to defeat this monster.

"It is said that nearly five hundred years ago, human beings experienced a destruction." The priest's expression was solemn. He looked at the huge monster bathed in the sunset, "Before the hero was born, the evil god almost destroyed the world."

"And the omen of the evil god's appearance is all kinds of alien creatures."
