Chen Ning's shout was particularly loud in the silent night. The entire camp heard it clearly. The soldiers who were sleeping immediately woke up. The entire camp was like a pot that exploded. In just a few breaths, dozens of mercenaries ran out of their tents. As soldiers who had been fighting for a living all year round, the loudest noise at night was the easiest to wake them up, not to mention Chen Ning's shout.
All the mercenaries who ran out scanned their surroundings, but they did not find anyone suspicious. They were all their own people, and they could not help but hug and curse."Which bastard is shouting here at night? Enemy attack, enemy your sister, where is he?”Many of the mercenaries did not notice anyone and started cursing. Amidst the commotion, one of the mercenaries quickly ran to the leader and said,"Not good, Captain. Li Ken, who was in charge of guarding, is dead.”
The cursing crowd immediately quieted down and began to look around carefully. The torches were lit immediately. At this moment, there were a few sounds of air being torn apart. The two mercenaries standing at the outermost edge fell to the ground. Each of them had a very small silver needle in their chest. The silver needle was obviously poisonous. In a few breaths, their entire bodies turned black and they died. Before the crowd could react, there were a few more small sounds of air being torn apart and a few more mercenaries fell to the ground. At this moment, the atmosphere in the camp suddenly became tense. Each of them revealed their weapons.
The leader of the team shouted,"Shield in front, archers in the middle, swordsmen on both sides, get into formation."”Following the captain's order, the mercenaries instantly got into formation. It was obvious that they were well-trained. Seven to eight mercenary guardians who were obviously quite powerful gathered beside Minister Wang's carriage. After a short period of peace, there were more than ten sounds of air being torn apart. The mercenaries were experienced and immediately identified the direction and blocked the shields. Although these silver needles were small, they had a strong impact. When they hit the shields, they made a tinkling sound. Apart from an unlucky fellow who was shot in the gap between the shields, there were not many casualties.
The leader was called Black Panther. He had thick sideburns and a deep scar on the left side of his face, which made him look unusually fierce at night. After seeing several of his brothers die in succession, his anger burned. After identifying the enemy's location, he did not hesitate. He raised the spear in his hand and shot forward at an extremely fast speed. He also rushed over with a few jumps. When the dozen mercenaries saw that the captain was leading the way, they immediately followed. With a sound of the spear piercing into the body, it was obvious that someone hiding in the dark had been stabbed by the spear. Not long after, the sound of an intense fight could be heard. Black Panther started to brandish his spear. He was not at a disadvantage in a one-on-three fight. The other mercenaries and the men in black were fighting intensely.
Black Panther grabbed the gap between the men in black and swung his spear. He made a false thrust, deceiving the two of them. Then, he stabbed with all his strength and knocked another man in black to the ground. Just as the man in black was gradually losing his balance and was suffering heavy injuries, a sharp and urgent sound of air breaking could be heard, shooting straight at the Black Panther captain. Black Panther was also a veteran of hundreds of battles. He rolled quickly to avoid the sneak attack of the long saber and then swept his spear to force the other two men back. At this moment, he shouted," Brothers, kill for me."”A loud roar came from the darkness. As soon as he finished speaking, the earth-shaking shouts of killing rang out in the surroundings. In the dark night, one could vaguely see the appearance of black-robed men, who were still looking at the caravan.
"Brothers, don't linger in battle.”Under the command of the Black Panther Captain, the mercenaries who were originally entangled with the men in black instantly broke away from the battle and returned to their formation. The soldiers behind them also rushed over at this moment. Black Panther's face was full of seriousness. It was obvious that he was surprised by the sudden appearance of the enemies around him. He originally thought that it was a small group of bandits, but now it seemed that he was too optimistic. From the sound of the footsteps coming from the other side, he could vaguely guess that the enemy's number was obviously twice that of his, or even more.
At this moment, besides Official Wang's own bodyguards and a few mercenaries, the rest of the caravan were dozens of porters gathered by Lanxian Town. Official Wang was obviously a person who had seen a lot of things. After getting off the car and asking about the situation, he ordered,"Leave three bodyguards and a dozen hunters to take charge of the caravan. The rest of you go and support Heibao. Official Wang knows that if Heibao and the others can't hold on, he obviously can't escape unscathed.
Chen Ning and Er Tie were also assigned the number of people to provide support. In Lanxian Town, Official Wang's words were orders. Fifty percent of the people's lives were controlled by Official Wang. His words were orders. When Chen Ning asked Er Tie where he went when he was attacked, Er Tie said that he went to the toilet as well. Chen Ning said happily,""It seems that our brothers are also lucky. It's all thanks to Third Emergency that we're alive. Otherwise, we wouldn't even know how we died.
When the group arrived, Black Panther and the men in black were locked in a battle. Black Panther had the porters hold shields behind them to prevent the enemy from shooting arrows. Chen Ning and Er Tie were also holding shields. Black Panther and the mercenaries were standing in front. The battle was about to start.
"Black Panther, I admit that you have some strength, but you are not my opponent. Our Mawang Ridge is determined to get this cart of goods today, and none of you will survive.”The leader of the mercenaries shouted.
When the mercenaries heard that they were bandits from Mawang Ridge, their expressions changed drastically." Mawang Ridge, how did we meet these bandits? Oh my god!" This group of bandits are all people who kill without blinking an eye. The other bandits can just say that they're stealing goods. This group of bandits is the strongest in the south of Guan Dao, and their name is similar to the wolf group in the north of Guan Dao. We're finished. We might not be able to survive this time.”
"Horse King Ridge!" Chen Ning frowned. He did not expect to meet this group of fiends on his first trip to the Heaven's Wall City. He had heard a little about the Mawang Ridge and the Wolf Regiment in the town. They were the two most ferocious existences. According to the elders in the town, these two forces had existed for decades. Even the Lord of the Heaven's Wall City had sent people to eliminate them, but the results were not good. Later, they were left unsettled.
Black Panther's expression was grave as well. He did not pay attention to the words of the small leader. Instead, his gaze was fixed on a man wearing a black iron mask standing in the middle. That man had a medium-sized physique and was wrapped in a black robe. He had his hands crossed in front of his chest. Clearly, the men in black were led by him. He said,"Chen Tian, I've been entrusted by someone to escort the councilor to Heaven's Wall City. If you still want to see our past relationship, let us go. I'll leave the goods for you.”Apparently, Black Panther also knew the style of the Mawang Ridge faction, but it seemed like he knew this man in black.
The black-clothed man was silent for a moment before he said in a hoarse voice,""You go, no one else." The voice was very soft but also very cold, as if it did not have a trace of emotion. Hearing this, the black panther's eyes flashed with a fierce light, knowing that this matter could not be settled peacefully.
" F * ck, what's there to be afraid of? So what if it's the Mawang Ridge? At most, it'll be a life-and-death struggle. We're not here for nothing." A mercenary looked at the people of the Mawang Ridge with bloodshot eyes. He did not show any fear. In the chaotic battle just now, his brother had died in their hands.
Other than him, the others also looked at their captain. They had all lived a life of licking blood on the edge of a knife. Many of them were brave and unyielding men. They were all waiting for Black Panther to make a decision. Black Panther gripped his spear tightly and said,"In that case, let's do it." There was no fear on his face, obviously he would not abandon his brothers and escape alone.
As if he knew that Black Panther would answer in this way, the man in the strong robe coldly spat out a word," Kill!”Immediately, his figure flashed and rushed towards Black Panther. The other men in black followed closely behind. Black Panther held his spear and fearlessly led the mercenaries to charge forward and fight with the bandits of the Mawang Ridge.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
The sounds of killing shook the sky as people fell and clashed with their weapons. Silver needles shot at the mercenaries from both sides at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye. Every minute, a mercenary was killed by the hidden weapons, causing the mercenary team to suffer heavy casualties.
"The captain is being held back by Chen Tian and the rest. You guys use your shields to block the surroundings of our brothers 'battle. The front of your shields is facing the back of your shields. Work together and block the silver needles. I'll hold them off for a short period of time for you.”In the midst of the chaotic battle, a burly middle-aged mercenary loudly commanded Chen Ning and Er Tie. After he finished speaking, he leaped towards the spot where the silver needles had shot.
As soon as the middle-aged man left, the other mercenaries also jumped up. Using the bandit's head as a leverage, they followed the middle-aged man with a few jumps.
The bandit was helpless against the mercenaries who had stepped on his head. Although they were infamous, not all of them were elite experts. This time, it was a small group from the Mawang Ridge. The powerful bandits were also entangled by the mercenaries. Naturally, no one could stop them.
Chen Ning took advantage of this rare opportunity. Although he had never experienced such a bloody scene, he knew that this opportunity was fleeting after following Li Dacheng for a year hunting on the Hidden Dragon Slope. He immediately called Er Tie and a few hunters he knew from the Fairies Town to quickly form a defensive net. Their cooperation was quite tacit.
At this moment, everyone cast aside their fear of the bandits from Mawang Ridge. In order to survive, in order to survive, everyone gave their all.
The battle had reached its climax, and everyone's eyes were red with killing. Sometimes, when the mercenaries could not withstand the attacks of the enemy, there were also hunters holding shields who stepped forward to be knives for the mercenaries. At this moment, there was no distinction between the noble and the lowly, because everyone knew that once these mercenaries were finished, they would also die, including their relatives and brothers.
Chen Ning raised his shield and did not dare to be distracted at all because the terrifying silver needles had left him with a lingering fear. It was too poisonous. F * ck, it was more poisonous than the poisonous snakes he had seen in his previous life. A living person had instantly turned into a corpse.
While Chen Ning and the others were defending against the poisonous needles, the battle between Black Panther and the man in the tight robe was also extremely fierce. The Black Panther Captain was fighting three people alone. He was already injured in many places, but he still brandished his spear majestically, preventing the others from approaching him for the time being.
The man in the strong robe moved his hands. He did not have any weapons in his hands, but every time he struck out with his palms, there would be a visible wave of air that hit the black panther. Every time the black panther blocked it, it was as if it was facing a great enemy. It was extremely difficult for him. The other two people also seized the opportunity to slash at him. Although they were all blocked by the black panther, it was only a matter of time before they were defeated.
"Black Panther, don't force me. You know I haven't used my full strength yet.”The man in the tight robe said as he attacked the black panther.
The black panther quickly spun around to dodge the attack. His movement technique was like a ghost. He shouted at the other two with his spear technique,"Chen Tian, aren't you looking down on me, Black Panther? How can I abandon my brothers who have followed me for so many years and escape alone? Even if I die today, I will not abandon my brothers and escape alone.”After saying that, he thrust his spear forward and suddenly approached Chen Tian. With a thrust of his spear, Chen Tian's figure flashed like a ghost, leaving only an afterimage behind as he dodged the black panther's powerful attack.
The mercenaries who were fighting with their captain saw how loyal they were and shouted,"Brothers, kill!"
Chen Tian was clearly enraged after dodging Black Panther's attack." Black Panther, since you're so determined to die, I'll grant you your wish. After saying that, Chen Tian released a surge of energy from his hands. In the next moment, a huge amount of energy gathered from his hands, forming a ball the size of a football that was about to smash toward Black Panther. The black panther was blocking the attacks of the other two people, but it was obviously too late. If the black panther went all out, he was confident that he could block it. However, he was currently entangled by the other two people and had no time to spare.
At this critical moment, Chen Ning followed the mercenaries to kill and escape. As they were holding their shields to block the poisonous needles for the mercenaries, they had unknowingly arrived beside the black panther. Chen Ning was dumbfounded when he saw the energy gathering in Chen Tian's palms. However, he also knew that the situation was urgent. If the black panther was finished, they would be finished too. Especially after seeing Chen Tian's god-like operation, he did not want to die. He then cursed with a vicious expression on his face."Damn it, I'll fight it out!" He raised his shield and rolled to the side of the black panther to block it. From thinking to action, it only took two to three breaths.
Seeing the energy ball coming at him at a speed that was hard to catch with the naked eye, Chen Ning subconsciously used his shield to block it against himself and the panther.
"Boom!"
"Ah!"
Accompanied by the explosion of the energy ball and Chen Ning's scream, the huge impact sent Chen Ning flying a few meters away. Black Panther's hair was disheveled and his clothes were tattered, but he did not suffer any substantial damage. He immediately rolled to Chen Ning's side and helped her up."Little brother, little brother, are you alright?”As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the other two men in black raise their sabers and leap towards him.
