Chapter 2656 Dark Invasion (The extra chapter has been moved to work-related topics)

“No!”

Seeing that everyone’s morale was becoming low, Mendoza interrupted Ella’s fantasy with a sharp voice.

"We must continue to move forward. We have a responsibility to bring these ammunition and supplies to the soldiers who need them. All of us knew the risks when we set out."

"But he saved people along the way. Why can’t we even give him the most basic burial?”

"The best funeral for a warrior is victory!"

Mendoza said with a steely voice:

"Our road is only through these mountains, and we will fight here, Revenge here until those red-robed slave masters are completely eliminated, otherwise our children and grandchildren will become playthings in their laboratories until they get bored and throw them into the incinerator, and this is what our ancestors have experienced The tragic fate of countless generations!”

Through inspiring words and iron will, Mendoza united everyone again, and Ella stopped crying, and she became those strong girls again.

After a short rest, until the sun completely set, Mendoza was convinced that they could start again. The night would give them some cover, and the genetic gift given to them by the Star Emperor would allow them to see clearly in the dark. See things.

"We continue walking. Although we have lost the map guidance, I have already heard the distant singing of the pure-blood angels. We should be able to find our compatriots in this direction."

With their baggage on their backs, the team of seven began to move in chaos. Crawling carefully among the rocks, each of them put on a gray cloak, which allowed them to blend in with the tones of the slag mountains.

After marching hard for more than ten minutes, the song in Mendoza’s head got closer and closer. It was a kind of low voice that only the followers of the order could hear. It came from the purebloods. They were like a The lighthouse guides the scattered new blood to various strongholds.

Then just as Mendoza grabbed a rock, he suddenly felt someone punch him from the side.

“Mechanical flying insects!”

It was Ella, and Mendoza could see naked fear in her eyes, despair.

He raised his head and saw three dark things appearing above. Judging from their outlines, they should be Greedy Eagle mechs, which are the most feared enemies of the new bloods.

At that moment his heart seemed to be clenched.

Then, the light illuminated their position, followed by the urgent buzz of the mechas.

With a sharp sound, the mech's automatic cannon began to fire, and dense bullets were flying towards them. In an instant, two teammates were hit, and their bloody bodies rolled down the mountain.

Then three mechs flew towards them, the missiles beside them ready to go.

"Run! Go to the hole in front, run!"

Mendoza grabbed Ella's hand and ran forward. His goal was a hole in front, although there shouldn't be one there. Any fellow cult members are active, but at least they can hide.

Just when he and Ella were about to jump in, the roar of the missile explosion hit his head. He heard Ella's scream, and then the ground began to tilt violently, and perception gave way to an instant. Weightlessness.

The next second there was darkness, a sense of falling emptiness, the roar of the mountains hammering in his ears - and then silence.

"Uh"

I don't know how long it took, but when he woke up, he found himself in a hole.

Mendoza groaned and turned over carefully. There was a deep cut on his forehead and a crust of dried blood on his face. Despite this, he suffered only a few cuts and bruises and no broken bones.

Mendoza sat up with his face wrinkled in pain and stared at the shadow. This is a narrow space made of rough rocks. There are two forks in front of him, and there is no way to enter at either end. A passage that extends into the mountain.

He looked up again and saw a jagged crack at the top. The missile had caused a collapse, covering the hole but also blocking possible pursuers.

"Cather."

At this moment, there was a moan behind him. Mendoza was startled and saw Ella lying in the pile of rocks, her legs It was bent backwards and deformed, the socket of the right eye was bloody and fleshy, and there was a broken and pierced bone on the forearm.

Mendoza quickly knelt beside her. The girl was breathing rapidly, and the pulse in her throat was beating weakly. Even the blessing of the Star Emperor was of little use to such a serious injury.

"Ella! Can you hear me? I'm going to get you out, I promise, I'll get help, you just have to hold on."

But Ella was just unconscious and occasionally mumbling to herself. Mendoza rummaged through his backpack, took out the precious water bottle, and dripped the precious liquid into the other person's mouth.

“I’m going to find someone to help.”

He didn’t even know if the other person could hear him.

“There may be another way out in these tunnels, and it must not be far from the nearest stronghold.”

After standing up, Mendoza suddenly noticed that there were traces of manual excavation in the cave. There are still tools left behind in some places, and there are cryptic symbols of the Order on the rocks. .

Obviously this should be connected to a stronghold, which made him feel excited immediately. If he found Ella, he would be saved!

Before he could take action, a scraping sound of metal and stone made him alert, as if something was crawling closer, mumbling something weird to itself indistinctly. accent.

"Huh?"

Mendoza looked towards the tunnel on the left side of the cave. It seemed that something was moving in the shadows, but even with his superhuman vision, he could only see a hint of paleness. skin and scarlet eyes, or the light reflected from fangs or claws.

But what made him flinch the most was the smell, an ominous stench, mixed with the rotting smell of dead flesh and dried blood. It should be called corpse odor

It is also difficult for purebloods to emit this smell. In fact, they do not like to mix with corpses.

The alert Mendoza immediately slid behind some large rocks that fell from the mountain road and carefully He stared at the open floor of the cave.

The shadows then lengthened, and the creatures slowly crawled into the shaft of light.

They have an obvious human shape, but they walk on all fours, wearing only moldy rags. Their skin is as pale as tubers dug out of the ground, with a touch of lavender, and their bones The fragments pierced the flesh, giving the impression of corpses that had decayed for a long time, and their hands were more like claws - larger and more brutal than pure-blooded angels.

And their faces are very distorted, and their mouths cannot close because of their madness, but Mendoza always feels that something is not right

Their faces didn't look like living things at all, they were too stiff.

The stench of carrion was so strong that Mendoza almost vomited, fighting back his nausea as the creatures crawled into the cave.

But suddenly he realized that he had forgotten Ella!

Now their attention was drawn to Ella's weak cry.

The next second, they, who were originally slow in movement, jumped across the gravel on the ground as agilely as mice, rushing towards Ella's body like a pack of wolves.
