Soul Echo

"I'll say it one last time—"

Zhong Ye turned sideways and glanced at the people standing behind him with a serious look, "I haven't studied systematically. Commanding, and I have never actually commanded a battle. All tactics and commanding skills are based on hearsay. I do not force you to join me to rescue other survivors. If anyone wants to quit, they can stay now. People who stay behind the city wall I also need your strength."

"But don't you need us more?" A mercenary raised his hand in the crowd.

He came to Milan with a caravan, but just after the caravan arrived in the city, the mutation happened and they were blocked outside the city gate.

If Zhong Ye hadn't brought people here, even if they could solve those aberrations, they would have suffered heavy casualties.

As soon as these words came out, the people around laughed.

It's not funny, but they need to use laughter to drive away their inner tension and fear.

Zhong Ye shook the head, turned around to open the wooden door, and walked out of the city wall first.

Behind him, soldiers and mercenaries filed out, but unlike Zhong Ye who looked extremely relaxed, the moment they walked out of the door, they put away their frivolous, weapons in hand, and put their vigilant guards away. Eyes cast all around.

Lilian followed behind Zhong Ye. In addition to accumulating actual combat experience and obtaining soul fragments, Zhong Ye also hoped that she could use the camera to transmit information to other players.

Following behind Zhong Ye, the girl's eyes couldn't help but drift to his shoulders. There were a few more wool threads on the deep wound. She was watching her teacher frowned with her own eyes. , and people used wool to connect the muscles on both sides of his wound.

city wall There is no medicine here, Zhong Ye just forcibly sewed up the wound - using wool!

It can be seen that Zhong Ye's shoulders will twitch slightly from time to time. Obviously, this should be very uncomfortable for him...

There is no aberration in front, Zhong Ye drew out his great sword and shouted: "Ready to fight!"

The warriors raised their weapons without doubting him.

The warrior took a deep breath, the inner Qi breath of the running body, and slammed forward.

The people behind them also trotted, and they were far behind Zhong Ye. Although they also wanted to help Zhong Ye to fight together, Zhong Ye's order for them was to 'defend' and wait until he needed to rotate. Time to start again.

Zhong Ye sprinted forward, and when passing an alley, a toad-like aberration suddenly jumped out of the alley.

But Zhong Ye twisted his body and spun in place, the deformed body suddenly hit the sword edge, and his body was instantly broken in half.

People saw him running to the corner, suddenly jumped up, stepped on the wall of the house facing the long street, and bounced out to the left street.

Zhong Ye was extremely fast, like a flash of lightning. Before people could react, he came to another street, raised his sword and fell, harvesting the life of the aberration.

Lilian started shouting as planned: "Anyone? Is anyone alive? If so, please reply! If you don't believe us, you can also look in the direction of the city gate, we A flag was set up there, a beacon was lit, and the aberrations on the main road have been cleared, so you can leave the house with confidence!"

She didn't know how many people would believe her, but at a time like this , can save one is one.

Although there is no task displayed on the panel now, but the story mode is the same, except for the soul fragment, all rewards will be distributed according to the 'completion degree' after the story ends.

- According to Fantasy Corporation: 'This is more real! '

When the team arrived at the street corner, they saw Zhong Ye standing at the end of the street, carrying a big sword on his shoulders, looking out from afar, and horrified bodies scattered all over the street.

Feeling their arrival, Zhong Ye retracted his gaze and gave the first order: "Take this street as the end, send a signal to the city wall, and cooperate with the second square to gradually clean up the aberrations in this block. ——Now, in groups of three, in groups of three, start the action!"

Two melee fighters, one uses long-range weapons and props to support, and also fights against not-so-powerful aberrations The three groups take care of each other. Although the speed of cleaning up the aberrations is slower, it can minimize casualties.

The team dispersed, and Lillian took out a simple firework from the small backpack she was carrying and launched it into the sky.

There is no dazzling flame, only a muffled sound of neither too big nor too small, but it is enough to be noticed by the sentinels who are always watching the trend of the street.

As soon as the signal was received, the sentry ran into the city wall and shouted to the long-awaited second squad: "Your Excellency Zhong Ye has sent a signal!"

Sit down The second squids in the corridor got up, formed a line, went down the stairs, and left the city wall.

When I came to the street, the smell of blood wafted from my nostrils, and I could see the corpse lying in the corner in a miserable state at first sight.

The second squad is led by Knight, who is a transcender. Compared with the other two, it is difficult for him to exert his full strength on the city wall, so he also leads a squad like Zhong Ye. , sweeping the block of aberrations.

Although Zhong Ye repeatedly emphasized that he did not systematically learn command and tactics, after listening to his plan, even Knight had to admire his conception, thinking that it was just a humble statement .

For them who are short of manpower, the 'three-three system' is the most suitable tactical match. I don't know how long this disaster will last. It is necessary to collect materials and establish a defense line. thing.

Battles broke out one after another in the long streets and short alleys. The crisp gunfire and the roar of the aberrations sounded at the same time, followed by the shouts of the warriors to encourage themselves.

Lilian and Zhong Ye stood guard at the end of the block and couldn't help looking back after hearing those noises.

And just as she turned her head, a dark shadow suddenly popped out from behind a window.

pa!

There was an explosion in her ear, which made Lillian hurriedly look away, only to see Zhong Ye's left hand grabbing a tentacle-like object in front of her .

The wool on his shoulders tensed instantly, and Zhong Ye pulled a deformed body out of the house with his arms.

He was holding the Aberration's tongue in his hand. With a flick of his right shoulder, the great sword rose up, and when the Aberration flew to his feet, his head fell.

"When fighting, don't be distracted."

Looking at the twitching corpse beside Zhong Ye's feet, Lily nodded with lingering fears.

Aberrations are not wild beasts, they are mutated from humans or other creatures, not just wandering the streets, but also in the house.

It's just that their first task is to clear the aberrations from the streets, and the aberrations hiding in the house will have to wait until later.

As the battle sounds in this block spread, the aberrations from other streets will also be attracted, and Zhong Ye is stationed here just to block them.

The street under his feet is the main road of the city, and the aberrations are not all flexible types. There are definitely not a few aberrations that come to this block through the main road.

What worries Lillian more is that the road connecting this block is not the only one at present. What if the aberrations break into this block from other directions?

But this kind of problem, Zhong Ye It shouldn't be unexpected.

The repeated gunshots finally attracted the attention of the survivors. The survivors hiding in the house peeped out from the window gap and watched the mixed formation of mercenaries and soldiers walking through the street. , killed the monster, then remembered the shout just now, shifted the angle, looked towards the city gate.

A simple gray flag fluttered on the city tower, and the thick smoke created by the beacon fire rose up, dyeing the clear sky with a black color.

—is it true?

Just then, a Knight rode a warhorse across the street, shouting, "Listen to all survivors, hide your belongings, and take your food to the city gate. , we'll keep you safe - and then we'll gather items from the house, build defenses, and retake our city!"

As Knight, he learned how to boost the morale of his men.

Boom——

A roar sounded suddenly, Knight turned his head to look, if he remembered correctly, it was the 'front line' that Zhong Ye chose.

After the positions of offense and defense are switched, the battle of defense finally begins!
