Chapter 23 No.20 Act Three. Mutants

"Specialized type!!?"

Even Lina couldn't remain calm at this time. This demonized wedge insect was different from the initial miscellaneous soldiers and the huge mutants blocking the road. It was a type that focused on sneak attacks and assassinations.

Their claws are extremely hard, and at the same time have amazing penetrating power. Even armor made of fine iron can be easily penetrated. At the same time, their short bodies contain huge energy. And it burst out with powerful power, faster than the arrows of even the best archers. It can be said that it is the deadliest existence in the edge of the Evernight Forest.

Although these demonized wedge-shaped worms will also die due to exhaustion of mana after hitting the target, but in the population of demonized wedge-shaped worms with almost no individual consciousness, such a sacrifice is nothing at all.

But what surprised Lina was that these originally lowest-level monsters actually learned feints and sneak attacks. You know, the demonized wedge bugs have been appearing as producers of low-level demonized materials in major mercenaries for many years. Among the textbooks for novice soldiers, it seems that those textbooks need to be rewritten.

Moreover, these two sneak attacking bugs are obviously not cannon fodder at the level of miscellaneous soldiers. Although they are a one-time consumable that weakens the detection ability, the weak air induction undoubtedly shows that these bugs are real black iron ranks. .

Use giant mutants to attract attention from the front, and use the specialized type of Suicide Squad to attack from behind?

Lina's heart sank, and she immediately took out a bottle of tan liquid from her pocket.

Without hesitation, Lina threw it straight, and the vial exploded in mid-air. The dim liquid shimmered and quickly condensed, forming a light and viscous barrier.

This is a tactic commonly used by alchemists to defend against flow arrows. This liquid called the Breath of the Rock is extracted from the earth element, and it can defend against a blow from the lower reaches of the normal black iron. For an alchemist of the black iron rank like Lina It can be considered a hemorrhage.

The sound of gold coins rushing away filled her mind, and the corners of Lina's mouth twitched.

However, the next second, the two demonized wedge bugs actually penetrated the defensive wall of Breath of Rock without any hindrance, as if it was just a thin layer of paper, and their speed did not even slow down.

Black iron midstream!

Lina was stunned. Breath of the Rock is an alchemy technique, and the suppression of the same level is actually quite obvious. When facing the attack of the black iron and above, the resistance will be weakened rapidly. She originally thought that it could at least slow down some special attacks. speed, but unexpectedly, the opponent's strength seemed to exceed her initial estimate.

At least in the middle reaches of Black Iron, it can even reach the level of the upper reaches.

But it is appropriate to think about it carefully. After all, it is a type of suicide attack. It is not surprising to invest all the magic power in the attack and break through to the upper and middle reaches of the Black Iron in a short period of time.

However, there is no time to think about this now. In the blink of an eye, the two demonized cuneiform worms are within walking distance, and Lina can even see the wriggling mouthparts of these disgusting worms.

The power of order from the embers of the first fire caused these insects to burn violently, but they could not slow down their speed. These demonized wedge-shaped insects were rushing towards Miss Grandia in the carriage with a decisive attitude.

As long as Grandia is wiped out, the embers of the First Fire will naturally be unable to maintain. The remaining people are just crumbling candles in the wind in this chaotic rainstorm. The demonized wedge bugs can evolve to such an extent relying on their instincts. Not surprising.

At this moment, Kahn and the others are still dealing with the remains of the acid mist and the mutated cuneiform worm in front. Even if they noticed the surprise attack in the rear, they could not support them in time, and the guards surrounding the carriage were powerless against the assassins of the Black Iron Steps. .

Lina was still hesitating whether to take out the potion she had at the bottom of the box, it was a high-quality product worth three gold coins, and it would be a pity to use it up just after entering the Forest of Eternal Night.

While she was hesitating, Rosen had already taken action.

The rusted long sword passed quietly in the rain, as if it was hidden in the raging rainstorm.

But it was this ordinary sword that directly cut through the hard pincers of the special-type demonized wedge-shaped worm. The sharp thorns that were originally extremely sharp now turned out to be like dead wood that was about to rot, covered by the rusty blade of the sword. It was cut easily, and before the bug could adjust its direction, Rosen's sword had perfectly split it in two.

puff-

There was a soft sound, which was the sound of the wedge-shaped insect being chopped open. The orange-red meat pieces splashed with juice in the rain, reflecting the deep purple lightning, showing a terrifying appearance.

Without stopping, Rosen flicked his long sword lightly, and chopped off the second demonized wedge-shaped worm with an extremely strange trajectory. The needle that had lost its sight was deeply inserted into the soil, and even created a small hole.

All of this happened within ten breaths. When the second wedge-shaped worm fell and made a noise, Kahn turned his head, as if aware of some danger.

"what happened?"

Turning around, Kahn dragged the heavy giant sword and strode forward to the rear of the convoy.

Immediately, they saw the corpses of two special-type demonized cuneiform worms on the ground.

"This bug seems to be a little different?"

He touched his chin, then looked at Lena and Rosen.

"You two repelled it?"

"Uh"

Lina was speechless for a moment. Although she was indeed aware of the attack and responded, whether it could be considered an effective defense is still open to question. In fact, from her point of view, Rosen alone could defend against this sneak attack.

"These two bugs should be at the lower level of black iron, right? Miss Lina possesses the unique skills of an alchemist, and it seems that they are quite strong. We can learn from each other when we have the opportunity."

Lance, holding a spear, said that he was quite interested in Lena, the only one in the team, and at this moment he shamelessly approached her to get close.

"It's just a bastard who takes advantage of the loopholes. Anyone can easily deal with an insect of this level. It's nothing special!"

Carlock put away the long sword. He suffered a little while dealing with the acid mist and consumed the previously prepared dispersing powder. Now he is very upset, so he didn't do well to Lena and Rosen who had ridiculed him before. complexion.

"No, these bugs should be at the level of black iron, and they have specialized attacks. Look at these claws. They have completely different shapes. If you want to escape from a sneak attack, you have to go through a lot of troubles. At least, well, Mr. Carlock, you have some Difficulty."

Kneeling down and inspecting the corpse of the insect, Tiqi, a man with blond hair in pigtails, said. He wore glasses and squinted his eyes, but the finger tiger in his hand made people dare not take it lightly. Tiqi showed black and white in the assessment. Tiexia's strength seems to be hidden.

"Don't be sensational!"

Carlock blushed. He has lived for so many years and has never been like today. He was picked on by several fledgling children in a row. For a moment, he even felt that this mission was the biggest failure of his life, and he wanted to kill him immediately. Return home and continue to eat and drink in Bunajien.

"Tiqi is right, we have to be careful of this new type of mutant."

In the end, Kahn came forward to mediate. He clapped his hands and motioned everyone not to engage in unnecessary arguments. After all, except for Lina and Rosen, no one had ever faced this peculiar wedge-shaped worm, so he naturally underestimated it.

But Rosen didn't have time to pay attention to this. He looked at the demonized cuneiform worm on the ground that had been cut in two, but a system panel glowing with silvery white light popped out of his eyes.
