Chapter 243 Turning the Tide
Captain Sam led a hundred people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce and rushed out of the Mechanical City.
But the team is too large and the speed is not too fast.
While running, some stragglers in the Chamber of Commerce team were killed by vampires.
The cry for help rang in my ears.
Looking at President Song Yu in the distance, he felt heartbroken.
Ji Xun observed calmly.
He also saw that the configuration of the pursuing troops was very subtle.
Two second-level vampires lead a group of minions.
Captain Sam and a group of guards also fought against them with their equipment advantages.
The battle situation looked very anxious.
This will make people instinctively feel that there is hope for escape.
That gave people a strong psychological suggestion: it seemed that if another second-level card master came to help, they could turn the tide and save those people.
This is what Song Yu thinks at this moment.
If there was really no chance, she would never take the risk.
But what if this situation is really a chance?
People died one by one. Song Yu's eyes were full of anxiety, but he could not speak.
Although she didn't expect Ji Xun to think so much, she instinctively felt that something was wrong.
She didn't know what to do. She glanced at the people around her, and just in time Ji Xun also spoke: "I'm going to take action. You two will be careful later and keep running in this direction and out there. There may be Level 3 vampires hidden in the group. When the fight comes, I may not be able to care about you."
Although he felt that these two people had their "fate" saved and they should not die.
But if you get injured, you'll be in a lot more trouble.
At least it would be more inconvenient for him to fight with the wounded.
The little turtle dove on the side was holding the gun nervously. It was difficult for him at this age to see the situation clearly. He didn't think about anything, and he mustered up the courage to nod: "Yeah!"
"Third level?"
But Song Yu heard a huge crisis in his words.
Her expression changed and she said worriedly: "But, Mr. Ji Xun, is it too dangerous for you? Otherwise"
Or forget it.
Although she was worried about the people in the Chamber of Commerce, she was absolutely unwilling to put her friends in danger.
The third level already belongs to the category of high-level card masters, and there is a very big gap between the combat power and the second level.
Although she knew that Ji Xun was very powerful, she didn't look like he could fight the third level.
When Ji Xun said "Level 3" he was understatement, but now he still didn't care when he heard Song Yu's worries, and said calmly: "It's okay. I happened to stay in the tent for a few days, and I also want to stretch my muscles. ”
Fighters need to improve in actual combat.
I learned those martial arts skills from senior Gongwu before, but my skills are still floating on the water, and I am worried that I have no place to practice them.
This situation couldn’t be more appropriate.
What's more, those vampires are still making sacrifices to the old gods, and even if they don't do this, Ji Xun is not happy either.
After learning a skill, you should do something.
“But.”
Song Yu wanted to say something else, but he saw that Ji Xun had already taken out his pistol and started shooting at the vampire in the distance.
“Go quickly!”
“Run this way and escape from this bloody mist first!”
"."
Everyone in the Rose Chamber of Commerce completely understood what happened. They only knew that a large number of vampires had appeared in the Machinery City and were killing people crazily.
Then they escaped.
The guards of the Chamber of Commerce are not weak, and they also gathered some other card masters from the Machinery City, and everyone rushed out.
Although it is thrilling, it looks like there is hope of escaping from Bolton Town.
Only the leader, Captain Sam, vaguely noticed something.
He is the strongest, and he was the first to discover the battle in the City Lord's Mansion.
That’s why I’m so confused.
Obviously there were high-level card masters participating in the battle, but why did those people let them escape?
This always made him feel like they were not on the run, but were being driven out
But even if he was suspicious, Sam didn't dare to stop.
At this moment, they can only have a chance to survive by desperately escaping from Bolton Town.
However, as I was running, I suddenly saw someone outside the fog in the distance with a gun and opened fire.
The timing is very subtle, as if to respond to them.
And even more strangely,
There was obviously only one person who fired, but the firepower seemed to suppress the hundreds of vampires who were chasing him.
With every gunshot, a running vampire will be headshot.
This instantly made everyone in the Rose Chamber of Commerce feel a lot less stressed.
This marksmanship is not simple.
At this scene, Sam immediately thought of a person: Could it be that guy?
Without thinking much, the crowd became lively.
Many people in the Rose Chamber of Commerce have seen Ji Xun, and those people also recognized who this "sharp shooter" was.
“Look, you guys, it’s Chaoyang who shot!”
“The lady is there too!”
“Oh, my God. I finally found the lady. ”
"The lady is here to pick us up. Why are there only three of us? Quick, protect the lady!"
"."
When the people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce saw Ji Xun, they couldn't help but be angry at first. Hostile.
Seeing Song Yu safe and sound again, everyone realized that they seemed to have misunderstood many things.
Although I don’t understand what happened, at least my lady is still safe. The truth shouldn't be what they thought before, thinking that Chaoyang was a murderer and kidnapper.
On the contrary, a few people with quick minds have thought that maybe it was because of his "disappearance" that Song Yu could live peacefully until now.
But this is not the time to think wildly.
The situation took a sudden turn.
Ji Xun's superb marksmanship killed more than a dozen vampires in a blink of an eye, which greatly eased the momentum of the ordinary people in the chamber of commerce behind the vampire group.
However, this good momentum did not last long, as the vampire army behind them suddenly rioted.
When Captain Sam saw Song Yu appear, an ominous premonition hit his heart, and he shouted: "Miss, run away, don't worry about us, it's very dangerous here!"
It seemed as if he heard this shout and also In the distance, Song Yu didn't dare to delay at all, so he turned around and ran away.
Even in Ji Xun's plan, she was the bait.
A fight must be fought.
But it must be far enough away from Bolton Machinery City.
In this way, the people of the Rose Chamber of Commerce can really survive.
As soon as Ji Xun and I appeared, they turned around and ran away.
But before they could run far, the vampire army behind them seemed to be going berserk. Some of the people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce no longer paid attention to them, and they chased after Ji Xun and the two who were running.
The pressure on the Rose Chamber of Commerce was reduced by half in an instant.
But the guards were eager to protect their master, and a group of people followed Song Yu's retreat direction.
In this way, Ji Xun and the others were like the guides, successfully leading the Rose Chamber of Commerce group and a group of vampires out of the bloody fog area.
Ji Xun had already seen before that the blood mist was some kind of sacrificial ritual.
After leaving the blood mist area, most of the low-level vampires did not pursue me.
Even if there were those who chased them out, under the intensive firepower, most of them would be defeated in an instant.
However, the number is small, and the crisis has increased sharply.
Only then did everyone see clearly that in addition to the two second-level vampires they had seen before, there was also a being with a more terrifying aura hidden among the group of vampires!
That guy was originally hidden in the vampire team and was inconspicuous.
But at this moment, the robe was torn, and a pair of huge reddish-brown flesh wings spread out.
In an instant, the aura of a high-level powerhouse swept across the entire venue.
Not good!
Captain Sam's expression changed suddenly.
He immediately realized that those vampires were not trying to hunt them down at all.
But I went for my own lady!
The old captain shouted violently and made a decisive decision. He shouted towards the front: "Miss, you go quickly, I will stop it!"
He held a small round shield and did not hesitate. He bumped into the high-level vampire who was transforming.
The flesh-winged vampire named "Cole" was hit by this collision and his body was unstable, which also hindered his pursuit.
However, an attack of this level poses no threat to it at all.
It looked at the entangled Sam with sarcasm in its eyes.
Veins popped out on his five fingers, and his sharp nails as sharp as steel blades slapped towards Sam's chest.
With a muffled sound like a bell, Sam's tall body was shot away.
Even though he was wearing plate armor and mail armor, he was hit by the huge force and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Cole ignored such an insignificant character and chased after Song Yu who was about to escape in the distance again.
However, as soon as he left, there was a metallic crunching sound, and his figure stagnated.
Looking down, I saw that an alloy mechanical chain had been locked on my ankle at some point?
Cole looked at the other end of the chain tied to Sam's arm and said sarcastically: "You are looking for death."
Without killing this guy, there is no way to pursue him.
Cole glared angrily, stretched the chain, and Sam flew back upside down.
The power and physical strength of a third-level vampire cannot be compared to that of a second-level card master.
Sam is a black knight who specializes in strength. In a moment of confrontation, the superiority is immediately apparent.
“Boom!”
A hard punch, and Sam received another punch in the chest.
Another groan.
However, because the two were chained together and their movements were restricted, Sam fought back without showing any signs of weakness.
He took advantage of the situation and changed his moves, pulling the chain and instantly limiting the two of them to a close fighting distance.
In this way, the distance the opponent can exert force is limited, and the power he can exert is also greatly limited.
The two sides tangled together like wrestlers and began to fight each other with fists and fists.
"Dong, dong, dong"
Muffled noises.
Level 3 versus level 2, Sam is at an absolute disadvantage.
But since he used this method of attack, he didn't think about surviving at all. He just wanted to hold off the vampire.
This tactic was also very effective, buying a lot of time for Song Yu over there to escape.
At least he thinks so.
Ji Xun was not surprised at all when he saw a third-level vampire hiding.
When I killed Captain Loki five days ago, his body had not recovered much, so it took a lot of effort to kill that guy.
It is estimated that the "mastermind" estimated that his combat power was at the second level based on the traces on the body.
Then a third-level vampire was sent.
Ji Xun also observed just now that this guy, like Artest, is a third-level player from the wild, and his strength is average for the same level.
Just because he has the ability to transform into a vampire, his physical body is quite strong.
But that’s all.
Ji Xun originally wanted to lure these vampires out and do it farther away from the Mechanical City.
Everything was pretty much as expected before.
However, a little accident happened.
What he didn't expect was that Captain Sam would hold back the third-level vampire regardless of his own life or death?
Ji Xun looked at this sudden situation, smacked his lips, and thought: "It's a little troublesome."
This place is not too far from the Machinery City.
Killing is possible.
However, his current strength has only recovered 50%. If he wants to kill a third-level vampire, the battle will be noisy.
The time may also be delayed for a while.
If we really take action here, I'm afraid it will attract a few other high-level enemies in the Mechanical City who don't know how strong they are.
The trouble will be great then.
This is why he hesitated for a moment.
After hearing Ji Xun's muttering, Song Yu next to him looked over with sparkling eyes.
The situation before her was the most desperate and helpless moment she had ever experienced in her entire life.
On one side was his loyal guard captain who was about to die for him, on the other side were the members of the Chamber of Commerce who were slaughtered. Bloody deaths were being staged in front of his eyes.
But she found that she could do nothing.
I can only watch the familiar people around me die tragically in front of me one by one.
This kind of despair struck a deeper chord in Song Yu’s soul than when he felt he was facing death.
Looking at Ji Xun, who was frowning slightly, a strong uneasiness suddenly arose in the heart of this young lady from a wealthy family. She didn't want to lose any more friends.
But at this time, Ji Xun still said the words that she wanted to hear someone say but didn't want to hear, "You keep running forward. I'll go Help him.”
Just as she was about to leave, Song Yu grabbed her and said with tears on his face: "Ji Xun, I don't want you to be in crisis too."
Ji Xun was stunned when he heard this, and looked back at this sentimental girl. The girl reached out and patted her head, shook her head and smiled: "It's not dangerous."
I frowned just now, just because I felt a little troublesome.
He doesn't think this third-level vampire poses any threat.
“I”
Song Yu still refused to let go. The smile that made her feel inexplicably reassured before made her feel more and more precious now, and she didn't want to lose it.
But she didn’t know how to speak.
I’m afraid that if I let go, I won’t be able to hold on to anything anymore.
The eyebrows blinked, and the crystal tears couldn't stop falling down her cheeks.
Already cried into tears.
Ji Xun looked into the girl's eyes. At this moment, it was like seeing the Milky Way flowing in the starry sky on a summer night. Brilliant and crystal-clear, the beauty is profound and filled with clarity that directly strikes the soul.
There was a tacit understanding of knowing each other in her eyes.
So reluctant to give up, my heart is broken.
The sadness and persistence passing through his eyes made Ji Xun seem to see the waiting and expectations he had spent his entire life a hundred years later.
This girl really has to wait a hundred years
That's really stupid.
Ji Xun's hand caressing her forehead unconsciously fell, wiping away the warm teardrop on her cheek, grinning: "Don't worry. I won't die."
Originally I didn’t want to get involved too deeply,
but then I thought about it.
No matter what the future holds.
They only live in the present.
“.”
As soon as Song Yu finished speaking, he saw that Ji Xun had disappeared on the spot.
He also had a domineering aura that he had never seen before.
Song Yu's eyes trembled as she was shocked by the breath. The sound of "I won't die" that echoed in her ears gave her great courage and confidence.
At this moment, she was inexplicably convinced again.
There was no time to restrain the sadness in his eyes.
Although she was still worried, she thought of Ji Xun's words, turned around and ran towards the distance.
Ji Xun rushed all the way, not forgetting to shoot and kill several vampires along the way.
Several magazines on his body are filled with alchemy bullets given by Song Yu. As long as his gun skills are skillful enough, he can do good damage to even first-level vampires.
There weren't many vampires chasing the blood mist originally. After emptying the magazines in these two hands, there were only a few first- and second-level vampires left.
But Ji Xun didn’t care about those guys. The people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce blocked it for a moment, which was enough.
In the blink of an eye, he had rushed to another battlefield.
At this moment, Captain Sam, who was covered in blood, was still fighting with the third-level vampire.
But when he saw the reinforcements coming, Sam not only did not look happy at all, but anxiously said to Ji Xun: "Leave me alone, it is important to protect the young lady!"
While speaking, he vomited blood foam in large mouthfuls.
Ji Xun seemed not to have listened at all, he rushed over and kicked the vampire in the head.
Impacting air waves flying sand and rocks.
Cole was hit by this kick, and he said: "Hey, he is not weak."
In its view, this kick is no longer an ordinary second-level kick. of.
But it won't do much harm to him.
Ji Xun didn’t use all his strength this time.
I just want to share the firepower and prevent Sam from dying.
He avoided the vampire's grasp, and heard Sam's sad and angry scream: "Leave me alone!"
This "Chaoyang" who couldn't see the reality clearly made Sam I was extremely anxious: Doesn't this guy know that even if the two of them join forces, they can't defeat this third-level vampire?
Wasting time to save people now is simply a stupid act based on impulse!
Not only can’t he be saved, but he will actually put his young lady into a situation of death.
Sacrificing yourself to hold this guy back for a moment is the best choice.
This guy is totally messing around!
Miss, I can’t bear it, why can’t you, a secret guard, see through this? !
But Sam was at a loss for words.
He was seriously injured in the struggle just now.
But then, a scene that made him even more desperate appeared.
At the moment when Ji Xun was fighting, Sam suddenly heard a mechanical click.
In the blink of an eye, the mechanical chain on his arm was opened?
Although I don't know how this guy did it, he is sure that it was this "Chaoyang" that opened it!
What a good thing he did!
Sam was furious.
The moment the restraints were released, the vampire Cole immediately noticed it, and with surprise in his heart, he retreated violently.
Sam also felt that the pressure of death suddenly eased.
However, he looked at Ji Xun next to him and yelled: "Damn it, do you know what you are doing?! Not only can you not save me, but you will actually harm me."
Before he finished speaking, "Wow" Another mouthful of blood sprayed out.
What he didn't finish was that if no one could contain this third-level vampire, everyone would die!
The enemy that he had finally spent most of his life to hold back was now in vain because of letting go.
How stupid!
Ji Xun on the side stood silently as if he hadn't heard anything.
The facts seem to be developing in the direction Sam least wants to see.
Vampire Cole flew in the air with his flesh wings, looking at Ji Xun and Sam in front of him, his eyes flashed coldly.
Although he didn't pay attention to the two second-level card masters, it would take some time to kill them.
On the other side, Song Yu has run further and further away.
After coming out of Bolton Town, there are wilderness mines extending in all directions, and the terrain is complex.
It’s hard to say if someone has fled far away and will be found.
Thinking of this, Cole only glanced at the two of them one more time and snorted coldly: "Let you two live a little longer."
With that said, he fluttered his wings and turned towards Song Yu. chased in the direction.
“Damn it!”
Sam cursed angrily as he watched his enemy fly away.
He struggled to his feet anxiously, trying to catch up.
However, even if he was not injured, Sam knew that he would not be able to catch up with the flying vampire.
At this moment, the loyal guard captain seemed to have aged ten years in an instant, with despair written in his eyes.
But he was not thinking about his injuries at the moment, but he still wanted to make his last effort to catch up and use his remaining life to help his young lady one last time.
However, before he could leave, he heard Ji Xun's calm voice: "It will be safer if you and the people from the Chamber of Commerce go south. Leave that vampire to me."
"???"
When Sam heard this, he already heard it wrong.
Going south, isn’t that the opposite direction to my lady?
Are you trying to make yourself a deserter?
His anger has reached its limit at this moment: Does this guy know what he is doing? !
“.”
However, Ji Xun had no intention of explaining it. He just watched the distance the vampire flew away, and while locking its energy, he estimated the distance and time in his mind.
Let Sam lead the people from the Chamber of Commerce to leave separately, actually for safety's sake.
Also to save them.
The main target of those vampires is Song Yu, and they will not pursue people like the Chamber of Commerce.
So that they can truly survive.
On the other side, protecting Song Yu, he is enough.
Many people are a burden.
The target is big, and there will be continuous troubles if you are hunted down.
Ji Xun didn't think he could save these people a second time.
Sam doesn't know this.
He barely supported himself and was about to question.
But at this moment, Ji Xun took action.
Hearing a pop in the air, Sam watched the figure in front of him disperse, his eyes stagnant: Huh? ? ? What just happened?
After a moment, the thoughts in my mind seemed to accept the scene in front of me.
The old guard captain came to his senses and realized that he had seen perhaps the most incredible scene in his life.
That figure actually flew away in the air?
"This."
Captain Sam looked at the series of shadows left by Ji Xun's rampage in the air, and then suddenly realized what an outrageous scene he had seen.
Traveling long distances in the air?
The movement was so fast that it seemed like a person was flying in mid-air.
How to do this?
Sam was too shocked to speak.
He is a guard trained by the Song family. He is quite knowledgeable and knows some profound body skills that can enable him to step into the air at short distances.
There are many second- and third-level assassins who can do it.
But this. Long distance travel?
He has never seen anyone reach such a level of elegance.
I have never seen it even among the fourth level.
“How strong is this guy?!”
The impact of the picture in front of him was so strong that it broke through all Sam's inherent understanding of the "rising sun" in an instant, as if a dam had burst.
With such wonderful movement skills, how could Sam not realize that in front of him was a "great master" whose strength far exceeded his own?
The indignant mood just now was gone in an instant.
It turns out this guy means this.
Let yourself go south, but I think they are too weak and will hold you back!
Letting the vampire go before was not an accident, but also intentional. Just to keep the battlefield away, and to protect them from attracting those high-level vampires in the Mechanical City!
Otherwise, with this guy’s speed, even with one person, he could escape safely.
Hiss.
Thinking again about the previous "kidnapping" of the lady, it was also his plan!
After understanding everything in an instant, Sam suddenly felt that the hairs all over his body were exploding.
Strong and thoughtful.
He instantly elevated his impression of this "rising sun" to an indescribable level of admiration.
Thinking of "Chaoyang"'s calm demeanor just now, Sam suddenly realized from shock, and then became relieved.
He looked at the figure speeding through the air and murmured mockingly to himself: "The lady really brought a strong guy."
No wonder that "Chaoyang" just now To be able to say those words.
It turns out that strength is his confidence.
“Haha.”
Thinking of this, Sam smiled bitterly, completely relieved.
If that person can't solve the problem, he won't be able to help.
On the contrary, following the arrangements will make your own lady safer.
Thinking of this, Sam didn't waste any more time, greeted other members of the Chamber of Commerce, and gathered towards the south.
"Pah, pah, pah, pah"
There was a series of air explosions in the air.
But the sound was mixed with the sound of gunfire and was not obvious.
At this moment, Song Yu was running in panic, not daring to look back even after hearing the noise.
Because at this moment, a second-level vampire appeared from somewhere in the dark corner and was already chasing behind him.
The cold murderous intention was like a biting cold air approaching his back.
She could already hear the weird laughter coming from the vampire's mouth.
Seeing this, the third-level vampire Cole, who was still flying in the sky in pursuit, also raised the corners of his mouth, showing a successful sneer.
As long as this "goal" is grasped, the mission is completed.
However, the sneer still hung on its face, and it didn't realize what happened before a sudden change occurred.
In the field of vision, a figure quickly passed in front of him and instantly protected the woman.
Waiting for Cole to take any action.
The second-level vampire who was about to catch Song Yu still had a strange smile on his face, but his head was pressed down by a big hand filled with ripples of Gang Qi, and he was hit hard without any resistance.
A muffled sound of "dong" echoed around the mine.
His head sank a foot into the ground, and his blood collapsed all over the floor.
“Ah”
Song Yu was also startled by the sudden movement.
When I turned around, I saw not a monster, but a familiar face.
In the reflection of his eyes, Ji Xun, who was full of energy like flames, was already close at hand, with the calm and calm expression on his face as always.
"Ji"
Seeing him, Song Yu's eyes flashed with brilliance, his fear instantly disappeared, and he felt inexplicably at ease.
The figure once again broke into her field of vision like a hero descending from the sky, and also reflected into the girl's inner world.
