Extraordinary Mechanical City

Chapter 234: Don't be timid, just be strong

Views:

The "poison quenching" weapon can indeed effectively kill enemies, but even professional assassins rarely use this method.

Because the toxin is a two-person sword, if you don't use it well, it will hurt yourself most of the time.

General toxins are highly corrosive and will corrode the weapon when applied to the weapon. Few people are willing to scrap the weapon to increase the toxin damage; what’s more, most weapons above the sophisticated level cannot even be stained with blood. , it is difficult to quench the poison.

Furthermore, low-level toxins are useless; but if deadly toxins are used, they will pose a greater threat to the user. If it is applied to a weapon, and the environment is not absolutely sealed, the small amount of poisonous gas that evaporates will cause big trouble for the wearer and his teammates.

Therefore, "poison quenching" is not a regular assassination method for assassins. It is only used occasionally when performing certain important special tasks.

But once someone uses it as a routine method, it will be terrible.

For example, the Chilos in front of me.

... .

"Toxins, body skills, chain knives... are all a bit tricky."

Because Ren was hiding on the sand dune, he had a commanding view of the entire battle.

He saw in the lookout mirror that [Ghost Shadow] Chilos did not leave after attacking and injuring people again, and cleverly used his body skills to hide in the blind spots of the people of the "Sequoia Chamber of Commerce" and wander wildly, which can be said to be a skill. A wise man is bold.

"The reaction time of the toxin on the chain knife is about three seconds. It seems to be a fast-fatal septic toxin. The medicine Catherine injected into him was the 'Hagrid Type VIII Advanced Antidote', which immediately relieved the symptoms... If only If this is the case, the risk of toxins is completely within control!”

As Ren watched, he was silently weighing the risks of taking action. If things couldn't be done, even if he was an acquaintance of Canossa, he would choose to retreat immediately; but now, although there are some risks, it seems to be within control.

For ordinary people, the concept of toxin may only be two words: fatal.

But for professional doctors, they can analyze the types of toxins and how to detoxify them from various clues.

As long as it was medical knowledge that was required in battle, Renn had systematically specialized in it, especially the "toxic subject"!

The toxins on the chain knife alone are not a big problem for his current healing ability.

... ..

Just when Ren was analyzing the poison and combat power of [Ghost Shadow] Chiros, in the lookout mirror, the guy quietly touched it.

Not only him, but more than a dozen assassins also rushed forward at the same time. It seemed that they planned to rush directly into the sand giant's defense circle and kill Catherine and her party.

After all, giving a third-level mage enough range to cast spells is not a good choice for an assassin.

If enough time is given for the earth mage to deploy the large-scale [Quicksand Technique] and [Quirk Technique], the assassin's advantage in agility will be gone. If they try to rush in at that time, the price they pay will increase exponentially.

At this moment, the morale of the hunters in Catherine's team has reached rock bottom.

That's what a team without coordination is like, no one has the kind of trust that can be entrusted to each other for life and death. Therefore, once danger is encountered, fear will easily spread and combat effectiveness will plummet.

Of course, this is one of them.

The second is that [Ghost Shadow] Chiros is too notorious.

All hunters who are out all year round have heard of this guy's evil reputation. He has successfully assassinated fourth-level extraordinary beings, let alone second-level low-level extraordinary beings like them

Although Catherine also felt that the situation was not good, she was still making a last-ditch effort and encouraged everyone: "Everyone, protect Amalise. As long as the quicksand trap is set up, those assassins will not be able to approach us again! I still have guns in my hand." We can use this magic scroll to trap the enemy, and we can counterattack..."

But the reality is that the assassins will not give them this chance.

Just before she finished speaking, everyone suddenly saw some smoke bombs being thrown on the sand in the distance.

Hiss... hiss... hiss.

The sound of gas leaking sounded, and black fog filled the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the field of view was limited to a few dozen meters, and the musket shooting was meaningless without the field of view.

"coming!"

Everyone understood that the assassins had launched a general attack and it was time for a decisive battle.

And just when everyone was tense because of the sudden explosion of smoke bombs, suddenly, there was another familiar crisp sound of chains.

The hunters turned pale when they heard this, and they all understood that the "ghost" was coming again.

This is like a death signal. Once it sounds, someone will definitely be killed.

Sure enough!

At this moment, the [Ghost Shadow] Chiros suddenly appeared from a corner and repeated his old trick. He stretched out his hand and threw it, and the chain knife struck like lightning.

Everyone felt a black line flash before their eyes, and a nervous musketeer immediately screamed.

"ah"

Looking again, a blood line appeared on the musketeer's leg and neck, and green blood with a foul smell immediately flowed out.

This lightning-like attack method is impossible to guard against!

Injuring another person completely defeated everyone's fighting spirit, and an atmosphere of despair instantly swept everyone on the Chamber of Commerce side.

At this time, they had already seen several assassins with fierce looks emerging from the smoke bombs.

... ..

The situation has reached a point of life and death.

Even Catherine felt that there was no hope of survival except for a few temporary helpers.

Suddenly, a very special gunshot rang out.

"Bang!"

No, to be precise, they first saw [Ghost Shadow] Chiros injuring someone with a chain knife. The moment he put the chain knife away, he was suddenly shot and staggered, and then heard the gunshot.

Drawing the knife and shooting were almost at the same time.

A sniper hiding in the dark has been keeping an eye on Chiros for a long time!

"Is it the sniper from before?"

As if grasping the last life-saving straw, Catherine's eyes were filled with joy.

Muskets, especially special firearms, have completely different firing sounds.

The gunshot that passed into her ears just now was extremely recognizable. She clearly remembered that the gunshot was that of the mysterious sniper who helped them rescue them in the ancient city!

"That man is not dead yet?"

Catherine was surprised and puzzled at the same time.

Because she knew that the man who fired four shots in a row without moving, his position must be exposed, and the assassins would definitely choose to hunt the sniper first.

She originally felt guilty, thinking that the man had died because of taking the risk to create an opportunity for them to evacuate.

But not only was the man not dead, he shot again.

Catherine's mind flashed with countless thoughts. Although she was not sure who the shooter was, it must be a friend rather than an enemy!

She turned her eyes, thought of something immediately, and shouted: "Our reinforcements are coming!"

The morale was instantly boosted.

... .

Not only the Chamber of Commerce, but the enemy also heard this loud shout.

As soon as the assassins, who were already cunning and suspicious, heard "reinforcements", whether it was true or false, they immediately stopped their advancing figures and immediately retreated.

There was only one gunshot, so they also suspected that there was only one person in the "reinforcement", the sniper in the city just now.

But even if they were suspicious, they had to take it seriously at this moment, because the accomplice they sent died, and if that person survived, his strength should not be underestimated!

At this time, there was another "bang", and the second gunshot sounded, and the assassins no longer dared to attack blindly.

"On the sand dune at nineteen o'clock, kill the sniper first!"

[Ghost] Chiros was also unsure of how many people there were on the dune, so he made a decisive decision to kill the sniper first. With a loud shout, all the assassins turned their direction and surrounded the sand dunes where the gunshots were heard.

And this time, behind the dunes.

Renne, who fired the second shot, didn't even check to see if he hit the target. He didn't dare to stay any longer, put away his musket, turned around and started running away.

He had the opportunity to fire twice because of the excellent reloading capabilities of the firearm made by Karl.

The power of a musket is inversely proportional to the firing speed. This special bullet that can threaten the third level has a reloading speed similar to that of a reloading cannon. If it were an ordinary sniper rifle, the time it would take to pull the bolt, unload, and reload would be enough time for a high-level assassin to appear in front of you in the blink of an eye.

He could fire two shots, which was already his limit.

The first shot was to stop those assassins from killing people, and the second shot was purely to "draw hatred."

No, the hatred was so strong that all the assassins chased him.

Renn did not hesitate and evacuated very decisively this time.

He kicked the ground and retreated violently with two sounds of "pa" and "pa".

This is the first fighting technique [Divine Movement], but the two explosions are not the same luck-based technique.

The first thing I heard was the luck method of the "martial arts master", which is overbearing and arrogant, simply seeking the ultimate speed of advancement, which consumes a lot of fighting energy, puts a lot of burden on the muscles, and is not long-lasting. Dozens of meters in an instant, in order to quickly distance yourself from the enemy.

The second explosion is the luck method of the "Qigong Master". It lifts the Qi and lightens the body. The breath lasts for a long time, which can provide him with continuous and ultra-high displacement speed.

With this skill, even against an extraordinary profession like an assassin, which has almost full agility awakening, he is not inferior at all in terms of absolute speed!

Moreover, Renne's fighting spirit is amazing. If he really wants to fight for endurance over a long distance, he won't be afraid of anyone.

After these two legs, he immediately opened a safe distance from the surrounding assassins, and kept getting further and further away.

Of course, except for the two third-level assassin leaders!

... .

As Ren ran, he also saw the assassin chasing after him, and muttered: "I hope that woman Catherine won't be stupid enough to hide and protect herself..."

His two gun handles exposed the positions of all the assassins, disrupted the enemy's offensive, and gave the people of the Sequoia Chamber of Commerce a chance to breathe and counterattack.

But if they choose to retreat or run away, it is definitely a stupid decision.

To escape, the sheep cannot escape the wolf pack.

If he really continues to retreat, the pressure on Ren's side will be extremely high. Two third-level extraordinary beings may come to attack him first. He has absolutely no confidence in fighting two third-level extraordinary beings at the same time, so he can only run away with all his strength.

The two third-level assassins couldn't catch up with him, so they naturally went back to kill everyone in the chamber of commerce. Sooner or later, they would also be dead.

And if everyone in the Chamber of Commerce chooses these two paths, Renn will never choose to save them again. Run as fast as you can, and just let those idiots who are greedy for life and afraid of death be killed.

But obviously, the moment Catherine watched the assassin being led away, she immediately thought of going with Ren.

She didn't hesitate at all and chose the third way.

"Our reinforcements are here! Everyone, rush out with me!"

She shouted sharply, then took the lead and led a few guards and the third-level mage to rush out again, chasing the assassins who had exposed their bodies. The momentum was menacing, as if the "reinforcements" had thousands of troops.

Running out of the defensive circle built by the "Sand Giant" to catch up would indeed expose you to danger, but now those assassins are in chaos, and this is the only chance to break the situation!

At least now it seems that there is a "high-level extraordinary" mysterious reinforcements who will share a large part of the pressure against the enemy for them.

If you dare to shoot, that person must be sure to shoot.

Catherine planned to make a bet, either to die together, or to fight to the death and gain a chance of survival!

When everyone heard this... reinforcements

The hunters had all seen Catherine's endless backup tactics before, so they naturally believed in the "reinforcements" she mentioned.

Moreover, the financial owner had already rushed out, giving them no time to think about their doubts. These people could only rush out instinctively.

"Haha, we still have reinforcements! Damn it..."

"Kill!"

"..."

Sure enough, after this shout, morale was instantly boosted.

The already desperate hunters broke out with a fighting strength of 120%. After the muskets were empty of bullets, one by one drew out their weapons and rushed out excitedly to prepare for close combat.

... ..

"Smart choice!"

While running, Ren looked back to check the enemy's situation. He naturally caught Catherine charging forward with his peripheral vision, and secretly praised in his heart: This woman is indeed not simple.

It really surprised him that a spiritually extraordinary person with a weak physical combat ability could charge so vigorously. This courage and courage were indeed extraordinary. And her son, the young man in silver armor, Gannicus, seemed to have overcome his fear and rushed out. Everyone behind him was also aggressive.

Also because of the brave charge of everyone in the "Sequoia Chamber of Commerce", things developed for the better.

Just as Ren expected.

... ...

At this time, [Ghost] Chiros, who was the first to climb the dune, saw that there was only one person in the so-called "reinforcement" and he was still escaping. He breathed a sigh of relief, with a contemptuous smile in his eyes. .

A second-level transcendent

"Ah... "

Seeing this, Chiros snorted coldly and made a tactical gesture towards the people around him: Don't let others run away, I will chase this guy!

Two of his subordinates have already died, so he can no longer underestimate Lei.

Chiros planned to hunt down himself.

Seeing this order, the other assassins immediately dispersed, turned back again, and surrounded and killed everyone in the Sequoia Chamber of Commerce.

After the two third-level assassins separated, Renn finally breathed a sigh of relief. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he murmured in his heart: "Tsk, tsk... Sure enough, a conceited guy would choose to fight alone..."

But this was exactly what he wanted.

Because only one-on-one can Renne be sure to counterattack.

Only if [Ghost Shadow] Chiros dies can tonight's crisis be completely resolved!

Thinking of this, Ren's escape speed slowed down as if he was exhausted...
