From Prisoner to Si Chen..

Chapter 337 Died on duty
"Ms. Theresa was injured and escaped from the nightmare..."

Maiev was stunned.

"What on earth happened in the outside world?!"

Jilan glanced around, taking in the expressions of everyone present, but did not notice anything unusual.

He was very calm at this time and did not lose his composure because of the accident. As the only 4th-level Jiushi person present besides Ms. Theresa, he decisively took over the command and said in a deep voice:
"Don't be distracted, get rid of the nightmare guards first!"

Hearing this, everyone quickly turned their attention back to the front.

The steel chariot was hit by Ms. Theresa, and its momentum was hindered. The metal surface turned red and hot, which was obviously the damage caused by the golden shock wave.

However, it quickly recovered, turned its wheels again, and charged towards the crowd.

Rumble!
"I'll hold it!"

A childish voice shouted.

Mugur stepped forward once again, blocking the crowd. He took out a black box in each hand, which snapped together with a clang, and then he pulled it -

Kaka.

A thick tower shield suddenly unfolded in front of him!

But in the next second.

"Ah ...

Following Ms. Theresa, he also had blood gushing out of his mouth and nose, and then disappeared on the spot.

"Mugul's body in the outside world was also attacked!" Maiev shouted anxiously. "Why didn't Raynor ring the Qing Lantern to wake us up?!"

No one answered because there was only one reason.

That would be Renault himself... maybe he had a more serious accident.

Everyone's heart sank.

At this time, the iron chariot had arrived and was about to crush everyone.

At the critical moment.

Swish!
Jilan acted decisively, picked up the tower shield that Mugur had dropped on the ground, and pushed it forward.

Bang! ! !
Everyone felt the entire environment was shaken.

The terrifying crashing sound and the impact wave made them feel terrified and they took several steps back.

Squeak! !

Amid the harsh sound of metal friction, a tall figure with long scarlet hair and muscular body was using a concave and deformed tower shield to withstand the charge of the chariot!
Everyone's pupils shrank.

"Is this... Mr. Gillan's true strength?!"

Seeing the burly man with a crazy expression and flying red hair actually stopping the iron chariot by himself, everyone present couldn't help but hold their breath.

White air came out of red-haired Jilan's mouth and veins on his forehead were exposed.

His scarlet eyes turned and scanned the crowd, and he said in a cold voice:

"Go ahead - attack the guard with all your strength!"

"Yes!"

The remaining five people, Maiev, Kaya, Ganod, Holden and Celine, each used their own methods to attack the half-body old man on the chariot.

Although everyone suffered backlash from their souls, the damage was reduced by more than half after they took the "Lead Printing Potion", and it was still within the tolerable range.

In an instant, in the dim sewer, flames exploded, gunshots rang out, and dull noises were heard.

...

...

outside world.

The clearing in the woods on the top of the mountain was filled with the smell of blood.

Renault, Mugur, Buweig, and Halidan all fell in a pool of blood. The dwarf Renault's body was torn apart, and the lantern in his hand had already fallen to the side, and the light inside was extinguished.

The other three had their left chests pierced and their hearts were missing.

Jilan and the others were completely unaware of this and still stood in front of the Nightmare Monument with their eyes closed, in a nightmare.

The gray-haired Ms. Theresa stood in front of everyone with a hunched back and a bloody face.

She was in a very bad condition at this time, gasping for breath and sweating profusely. She covered her left chest with one hand, her fingers were full of blood, and she also suffered a fatal heart injury.

However, as a 4th-level "Sunflower", her palms continuously radiate strong light to heal the wounds.

This would not prevent her death, but it could delay it and allow her to live a little longer...

In fact, if an artificial heart could be replenished in time through alchemical means, Theresa would not have died.

But the current situation obviously does not allow this.

Theresa was staring coldly at a man in front of her.

A tall and straight figure, a familiar face, and a meerkat standing on his shoulder.

It was none other than Ganod, a member of his own team.

"I don't understand. You clearly followed us into the nightmare in the monument just now, so how did you make your move?"

Ms. Theresa asked in a deep voice.

Ganod shrugged and explained indifferently:

"I said something near the Nightmare Monument, but none of you paid attention to it at the time..."

Ms. Theresa was startled.

She suddenly remembered.

It was indeed as the other party said. Before everyone took action, Ganod drank the "Lead Printing Potion", took the first step, and said, "Let's kill the Nightmare Guard together."

It was this sentence that invisibly influenced everyone present, making everyone mistakenly believe that Ganod had entered a nightmare.

"You are the Crucible Spiral of Pentacles, the 4th level 'Whisper' of the October 'White Dove Poet' Path!"

Theresa's pupils shrank.

She asked in a hoarse voice:

"Who are you anyway?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that everyone in the Empire Special Operations Group 2 will die here."

Ganod smiled.

His gaze passed the old woman in front of him and fell on the back of the blond young man in the front.

A sound of praise came out of his mouth:

"He was able to defeat the 'Ninth Pigeon' Daedil. He is indeed a young man with extraordinary talent... He has already climbed to the 4th level at the age of . This is beyond my expectation."

"We must not allow such a dangerous enemy to grow, lest it become a serious threat to us."

"So let's end it here tonight."

Hearing this, Theresa's expression became even uglier.

Although the other party did not say it explicitly, he has revealed very crucial information.

"The Dove Tower 'Sonnet'!"

Theresa said coldly.

His teeth were clenched and blood was oozing from the corners of his mouth, which showed that the hatred in his heart was beyond words.

"Those who hide their heads and show their tails will die!"

She suddenly raised her hand and waved.

I saw a flash of golden light, like dewdrops and stars, splashing from his fingers, and then gathered in mid-air, turning into a crescent-shaped high-temperature shock wave, flying straight towards Ganod.

However, the shock wave rolled over Ganod's body unhindered and hit a huge rock behind him, causing a violent explosion.

The huge rock as tall as a person was instantly shattered into fine pieces and scattered everywhere.

Ganod appeared on the other side without any warning. His posture remained unchanged, still standing with his hands in his pockets, watching the scene quietly.

It seemed that he had been standing here from beginning to end.

The figure just now was just an intentional deception.

Ms. Theresa seemed to have expected this. Although she missed the attack, she was not disappointed at all. Instead, she rushed out quickly, went to Renault's body, and reached out to pick up the lantern that had rolled to the ground.

But the next second, her face changed. The hand she stretched out was like trying to catch the moon in the water. It went straight through the lantern and caught nothing.

"I'm sorry, I saw through your plan a long time ago."

Ganod shook his head regretfully and raised his hand to signal.

In his palm, he was holding a real Qing lantern, which was stained with blood from beheading the dwarf.

"Ms. Theresa, how long can you hold on? One minute, or two minutes? Stop struggling, it will only cause you pain..."

"puff--"

Ms. Theresa opened her mouth and vomited a large mouthful of blood.

Because of the violent movement, and the separation of essential power for attack, her fatal injury could not be contained, and the blood gushed out of the hole in her left chest uncontrollably.

She didn't let herself be provoked into speaking because that would only make her already bad state worse.

Bang!
Theresa stepped on the ground, and with her shaky body, she rushed towards Ganod. Her hair was messy, but her eyes were determined.

"We must retrieve the lanterns and wake up the team members."

She thought to herself.

If not, it will be just as the other party said, everyone who is trapped in the nightmare will be like fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of the other party, and all will be wiped out!

"Dawn." Theresa spoke softly in ancient Hiru.

Her eyes suddenly shone with dazzling light.

It was like a flash of golden light in the daytime, and Ganod had to close his eyes to avoid being burned by the "Sunflower" essence.

But when he opened his eyes again, Theresa was already in front of him. She reached out and took the lantern he was holding.

"I can see that you really want to save them."

Ganod smiled faintly.

He took back his hand and hid behind the lantern. Theresa saw that she almost got the lantern back, but missed it by a hair's breadth, and her heart sank to the bottom.

She knew very well that this was her only chance!
If she missed it, her body would no longer be able to sustain it.

call out--

Without warning, Garnord raised his leg and kicked Ms. Theresa in the abdomen.

Bang! !

Theresa's internal organs were shattered, and she vomited blood again. She summoned her last bit of strength and said hoarsely:
“Dawn!!”

hum-

His whole body was glowing with golden light, like a ball of high-temperature light, burning Ganod at close range.

At the same time, he released the hand that was covering the wound on his left chest, and stretched out both arms to take back the Qingdeng.

The moment she let go meant that Theresa gave up her own life in exchange for a slight chance of her companions' survival.

Ganod narrowed his eyes and tears fell unconsciously. His face, neck and chest were the first to be burned.

"You want to die? I'll grant your wish."

He just raised his hand and a shiny white dagger appeared and slashed across the old woman in front of him.

A snort.

Ms. Theresa's right elbow was cut off at the root, and all four fingers of her left hand, except the thumb, fell off.

But even so, she still threw herself at the enemy.

The blazing golden light first shrank, then bloomed.

boom! !

Smoke and dust rose everywhere and the temperature rose rapidly.

In the twisting and fluctuating heat wave, a tall figure dodged a few times to create distance, then quickly slapped himself to put out the flames.

Ganod, no, a strange man showed up.

He has a handsome face, silver eyes and shoulder-length hair. But now he looks a little embarrassed because of the old woman's desperate attack.

Dozens of meters away, Ms. Theresa fell to the ground, missing her right arm, her body covered with wounds, and smoking.

"There's no point in doing this, old woman."

The silver-eyed man spoke calmly.

Unexpectedly, he heard a slight laugh.

“Heh…” Theresa turned over with difficulty. Due to the excessive consumption of life and strength, she now had white hair and wrinkles all over her face. She looked too old to be human, but she grinned and said:

"Being able to wake them up is... the greatest significance."

I saw that she was holding a lamp carefully in her arms.

The silver-eyed man raised his brows, only to find that the lantern in his hand had been snatched back by the other party in the explosion just now.

"How ridiculous." He shook his head. "Even if you wake them up, it won't change anything... In fact, everything has been determined since the moment you landed on the island. It's just a matter of time."

Theresa didn't waste any more words with him. She just raised her hand and slammed the outer shell of the lamp with the base of her palm.

when! !

The dull sound, like the sound of a huge bell, instantly penetrated the nightmare and struck everyone's consciousness.

In an instant, the group of people who were in the nightmare in the monument woke up one after another.

When they saw clearly what was happening at the scene, their faces changed drastically.

"Ms. Theresa!"

Kaya exclaimed.

When she saw the miserable appearance of the lady and the lantern in her arms, she understood that this was a heavy price she had paid to buy everyone a chance to wake up.

The other four corpses lying on the ground and the strange man standing on the other side made everyone glare at them angrily.

"Mr. Ganod...has he died in the line of duty?"

Maiev took a deep breath and understood it all.

"This guy replaced him and has been mixed in our team all this time, just to launch a sneak attack and assassinate us at this moment!"

When Ms. Theresa saw everyone waking up, a smile appeared in her cloudy eyes, and she spoke in a hoarse voice, intermittently:

"He is... the power of the Sonnet of the Dove Tower, the Whisper of Care..."

Before she could finish her words, the lady lost her breath.

Everyone just felt their hands and feet getting cold.

Ms. Theresa, a 4th-level Kyuze, died on the spot in order to save them!
Kaya has been in Group 2 the longest and has the deepest feelings for her companions. But now, Ms. Theresa, Mr. Ganod, Mugur and Renault have died one after another.

She is the only one left among the old people.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she could hardly suppress the sadness in her heart. But soon, the sadness turned into hatred for the strange man.

"This guy is a long-time master. Even if we join forces, I'm afraid we won't be his match..."

Haldane spoke in a deep voice.

Although he and Celine are outsiders, the difficulties they are facing now will not change because of their identities.

If they cannot defeat each other, they will die too.

"Mr. Gillan hasn't woken up yet!"

At this moment, Celine looked back, her pretty face pale.

The blond young man still had his eyes closed, showing no signs of waking up.

The other three looked over and their faces changed. Without Jilan, the old man, the chances of the four level 3s winning would be slim.

Even the silver-eyed man named "Fifth Dove" who had been watching couldn't help but laugh and shake his head.

He looked up, and with his spiritual vision, he saw scarlet nightmare energy surging like ocean waves bursting out from the nightmare monument and sweeping in all directions.

"Tsk tsk... What a pity! You have completely triggered the nightmare monument, trapping Gillan Iros inside it."

The fifth pigeon said lightly.

"Who will save you next?"
