1302 An ambush (1)

The warm wind was slightly tipsy, and the green grass seemed to be stained with a layer of light, which continued to spread toward the horizon.

A group of birds with five-colored wings chirped and jumped happily in the grass, as if nothing could disturb them.

However, in this beautiful painting, there was a foul smell that lingered in the air for a long time.

When the grass was ruffled by the wind, a rotten body was revealed. The weapons full of holes were thrown to the side, and there were some broken arrows stuck in the body. Because of the gnawing of insects and rats, the body was completely mutilated, looking extremely ferocious.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and more bodies were revealed. They were lying on the grass, most of them in pieces.

“Shua shua shua”

A Ghoul crawled out of a hole in the ground and nimbly dragged a corpse to the ground. A few minutes later, it crawled out and dragged a second corpse.

Looking from above, the green grass was covered with broken corpses. From time to time, there would be large holes with a diameter of more than one meter. That was the ghoul’s nest, piled with the corpses they had collected from the battlefield.

It was obvious that a fierce battle had taken place here. The corpses of the defeated were ignored and left in the wilderness.

It didn’t take long before a series of heavy footsteps sounded, scaring the ghouls that were trying to drag the bodies back into the cave.

However, they quickly peeked their heads out again, staring with their blood-red eyes, constantly looking carefully in the direction of the sound.

This was a patrol team made up of Wizards, Knights, and elite soldiers. Everyone was fully armed. They slowly walked on the grassland while vigilantly watching for any signs of movement.

The one at the front of the group was an ordinary soldier, equipped with a saber and a gas rifle. The soldiers following him were either equipped with the same gas rifle or carrying bows and short Spears on their backs. It was a messy scene.

There were about 100 ordinary soldiers, followed by 15 Knights on warhorses. All of them wore armor with runes engraved on it and used a variety of weapons.

These Knights were surrounded by their servants. Their equipment was slightly crude, but it was not too bad.

A few Magi dressed in black robes were also in the group. Their sinister masks covered their faces, only revealing a pair of cold eyes. A cold and ominous aura surrounded their bodies.

As the number of cultivators in the Holy Dragon City increased, the third Legion of the Sorcerer world also increased rapidly. These Knights and sorcerers were one of the reinforcements, patrolling with the soldiers who had participated in several battles.

When they passed by the battlefield, the patrol team members just glanced coldly at the corpses in the grass, then continued to patrol along the fixed route.

As the war gradually eased, the number of battles between the two sides decreased. There was even news that the rear was already making preparations to retreat.

After the unexpected early victory, the higher-ups of the fifth continental ring were already very satisfied with the harvest. They believed that they should stop while they were ahead to avoid being caught in the quagmire of war.

Once the battle zone in the spirit ruins was ready and counterattacked with all their might, the situation would be extremely unfavorable for the Magus camp.

However, there were some higher-ups who did not agree to retreat. They felt that it was too much of a pity to give up on the results of the battle. If they retreated now, they would undoubtedly lose a lot of benefits.

The two sides had been quarreling over this matter for a long time, unable to come to a conclusion. Because the front line had not received clear orders, they could only choose to defend.

Among the ordinary soldiers, there were also some new soldiers. They were full of curiosity about the gas can rifle that had just been equipped, and they fiddled with it from time to time.

So far, only the 3rd Legion was equipped with this weapon. The other legions could not be seen at all.

Along the way, some new recruits asked the Veterans about the situation of the battlefield from time to time. It was obvious that someone had told them about the differences between this place and other battlefields before they came.

don’t worry. Although those Lou Cheng cultivators like to snipe, as long as they hear the gunshot and lie down in time, there won’t be any problems!

A veteran in the team looked at the nervous young man beside him and reminded him in a low voice. At the same time, he patted the heavy rifle on his shoulder and said with a proud face, ” this is the loot I got last time. Someone offered me 100 gold coins for it, but I didn’t sell it. How about it? ”

The young soldier chuckled and touched the heavy gas tank rifle in his hand. “It’s still more comfortable for me to use it, it feels very solid!”

“After you’ve fought a few battles, you definitely won’t think this way anymore!”

The veteran pursed his lips and showed a hint of disdain on his face. He didn’t want to argue with this new recruit anymore.

After crossing the grass, there was an empty gravel beach in front of them. Not far ahead was a small river where the patrol team usually rested and ate.

everyone, pay attention to your surroundings. If there’s anything abnormal, immediately alert the police!

The patrol Leader, who was riding on a warhorse, looked around and reminded the soldiers in front of him. The battle some time ago had caused the patrol team to suffer a lot of losses, and they had to replenish some inexperienced rookies. This also made the patrol Leader worried.

Although there were many Knights and Wizards among the new recruits, they had never fought with enemies who used firearms. Who knew what it would be like if they really fought?

Just as he was about to warn his teammates, a light sound came from the distance. A bloody hole appeared on the chest of the patrol Leader, and he fell from his warhorse.

“BOOM!”

Another muffled sound came. In the team at the front, a pillar of air mixed with mud and dust soared into the sky. More than a dozen soldiers around them were directly lifted into the sky, blood and limbs flying high and then falling heavily.

Before the patrolmen could react, dozens of figures suddenly sprang out of the grass hundreds of meters away, followed by the sound of concentrated gunfire.

The soldiers who were caught off guard fell in droves. The warhorses of several Knights were also hit by bullets. They either fell to the ground and wailed, or their stomachs were torn open, dragging their intestines everywhere.

“Get down and return fire!”

Although they were suddenly attacked, under the command of the experienced veterans, the patrol members did not fall into chaos. Instead, they quickly used the corpses and pits as cover and counterattacked the enemy not far away.

“Whoosh, whoosh, Whoosh!”

The unique sound of a gas tank rifle rang out as metal bullets flew toward the enemy. However, just as they were about to touch the enemy, they were blocked by an invisible barrier.

The patrol team was shocked to see the bullets blocked. It was only now that they noticed that there was a black cylinder in front of the enemies. The energy curtain that blocked the bullets was released by it.

“Damn it, what the hell is this?”

After dodging the bullets, the veteran of the patrol team cursed with a doubtful expression.

The weapons used by the cultivators of loucheng were very fast and completely different from the heavy rifles they used in the past. They were actually able to completely suppress the gas can rifles used by the patrol members!

With the bullets whizzing over their heads, the veteran didn’t have much time to think. Just as he found an opportunity to shoot, he saw that the Knights had already maneuvered their warhorses and charged at the enemy.

“Damn it, this bunch of idiots!”

The old soldier cursed in his heart, feeling very disappointed with this group of reckless Knights.

These guys were simply courting death. They would probably be shot into sieves before they could even reach the enemy!

As expected, as the Knights charged, the dense barrage of bullets had already enveloped them. Even though the Knights ‘bodies were protected by activated energy, they were still unable to block the lethal bullets.

“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!”

Blood spurted out of the Knights ‘bodies as their warhorses fell to the ground. Although they were only a few hundred meters away from the enemy, they could not cross the natural moat even if they died.
