Civilization Guardian Front

"They are probably in the lower level, the core area of ​​the rampage incident..."

"What are you talking about!?"

Loki, who was still relaxed a second ago, turned extremely pale in an instant.

Neither Ais nor Tifa is a loss she can afford...

Especially the former family entrusted by His Royal Highness, if there is a slight mistake, he may be impaled on the edge of the cliff with a golden gun and dried for [-] million years! ?

"Forget about the guild, the rescue team is now dispatched at full speed, immediately, immediately!"

Chapter 510 Three? Dance With Me

The eight teams of adventurers who escaped from various areas on the 25th floor were driven by monsters and returned to the main road one after another.

When they found out that there were hundreds of pursuers behind other family members, they originally wanted to use "monster gift" to attract the chasing monsters to other people's positions, making them a new target for monsters and throwing off their attention The idea of ​​power was instantly shattered.

The situation is also precarious, and everyone who has the same goal of "retreating to the middle level with less danger" chooses to join together based on the mentality of forming a group to enhance their sense of security.

There are more adventurer companions, and so are monsters...

In the labyrinth with limited space, a large number of monsters of the same kind are pushing forward. Usually, they can never catch up with the adventurers who memorize the map and move flexibly.

However, this common sense does not apply to the people who are now bent on evacuating.

While running, several captains looked up or looked back from time to time, wriggling their dry lips, discussing the current predicament anxiously:

"Damn, I'm about to be caught up!"

"Of course I know, but we can't ignore the arrows and sound waves of those songbirds overhead!"

"But if we go on like this, before reaching the entrance on the 24th floor, we will..."

swoosh swish...

Songbirds armed with natural weapons fired another round of arrows.

""Pay attention to defense! ""

Hearing the shouts of the captains, the adventurers who had no choice but to raise their armored hands and brandish their weapons to protect their vital points, while the supporters simply relied on the thick and large backpacks on their backs as shields.

The arrows shot by monsters that are not known for their strength are not the power to worry about.

The point is that this kind of flying monsters frequently attack and harass them, forcing them to be alert at all times in order to meet the enemy in time, which seriously slows down the team's movement efficiency.

Although it seems that there is still a distance between the adventurer team and the land monster.

The gap is indeed shortening.

It is a pity that the difference in combat power between the enemy and ourselves is so great that they, as the inferior side, have no battlefield initiative at all.Apart from being anxious, the captains couldn't come up with any helpful countermeasures for a long time.

Right now...

blow!

The sound of breaking wind rang in the ears of the adventurers, and they hurriedly looked up...

A black-haired girl wrapped in the green and silver wind rushed into the unsuspecting flock of songbirds at a speed that surpassed the sound of howling.

The violent airflow disturbed the lift obtained by the flapping of the wings, causing many monsters who could not react in time to scream and fall into the bottom of the cave.

Immediately...

boom!

A more violent gas explosion sounded behind everyone in the team.

They followed the reputation and saw...

The purple and black ghost spirit and clothes are mixed into a palpitating abyss color system. The white hair that has faded from the night is like a burning phosphorous fire, and the light and shadow left behind by the flickering scarlet eyes when moving at high speed are like two ominous pendants dragging the red tail star.

"ghost"

If you had to choose the most appropriate term, it would undoubtedly be it.

"Sorry..." The white-haired young man who suddenly broke into the gap between the adventurer team and the front of the monster army said to the monster with a smile on his face:

"This way doesn't work."

As soon as the words fell, the concentrated negative energy was integrated into the blade of the magic sword mixed with the darkest star iron, dyeing the lines that exude gorgeous golden light into a deep purple.

The white-haired young man held the sword in both hands and lifted it diagonally above his right shoulder, fixed his eyes on the most densely populated area of ​​the enemy, and slashed down.

Swish!

The fusion of high-temperature fiery energy and the curse that erodes and corrupts all things, and the light blades shot along the slashing line penetrated more than ten monsters one after another.

Puff puff...

The body split in two sprayed a fountain of stinking blood.

The feathers of a half-human bird, the scales of a half-human snake, and even the steel shell of a metal crab can't slow down the sword light.

Before understanding the situation, these lives ushered in their own end...

In the end, due to the lack of support from the sword-wielder's mental power, the outgoing energy that was difficult to condense disintegrated on its own, allowing more monsters in the rear to escape by luck.

boom!

The demonic wind that exploded around the sound source of the explosion swept across the surroundings, and the dark malice it contained instantly shocked the nearly thousand monsters that were born in the city of water and were busy chasing escaped adventurers...

Oh ah ah ah!

The fear that oozes out of the bone marrow makes them howl instinctively.

Trying to bluff without half the confidence, like the instinct triggered by the creatures at the bottom of the food chain when they encounter high-ranking predators, even if they intend to resist, they still can't help but feel flustered.

In contrast, the second-level adventurers who have grown up and upgraded from a weak point of accumulated experience have long been accustomed to fighting while suppressing this nature, and what they have learned makes their thinking far more complicated than that of non-intelligent creatures, which greatly weakens them. Sensitivity to intuition.

Except for a slight increase in the tension of being mentally oppressed, the adventurers basically didn't feel much abnormality.

Chios didn't care about the perception of people behind him.

His eyes swept over the countless monsters who were gradually recovering from the panic state, and they met a pair of red eyes burning with red flames of hatred.

"Fine, leave the others alone..."

He is very clear that the reason for the birth and the root of hatred of these monsters lies in himself as an outsider. Thoughts like "Kill Chios" must have been ingrained in their minds by the will of the world through the power of the dungeon matrix during the ignorant period of the new life's gestation process.

The reason why he went berserk and chased after others was purely to vent his anger when he couldn't find the target.

Even the desire to survive is not comparable to this obsession.

Therefore, no one is more suitable for the task of attracting the attention of monsters than Chios.

The white-haired young man turned his right wrist upwards, allowing the magic sword to hang down, with the tip of the sword pointing to the toe of his right toe.

"Come and dance with me."

After speaking, he took a step forward and rushed forward at lightning speed.

"Ghost Gale"

boom!boom!boom!boom...

With the eyesight of Lv.3, Lv.4 adventurers or monsters, it is impossible to catch the figure of the rapid charge.

All that can be seen are the afterimages of the circles of aura formed by the explosion of ghost aura, and the slashing trajectory of the black sword that came into view after half a beat.

With a "swish", the young man who appeared in the center of the monsters put his sword back into its sheath.

The turbulent ghost energy gathers and recycles, and the moment the sword is drawn, the feet move quickly according to the pace of the circle, and the rotation is accelerated with the help of the airflow.

"Absolute Sound? Turn"

The arc-shaped crescent that was supposed to be cut with a single sword suddenly turned into a storm, crushing all the enemies surrounded by the sword.

While Chios slammed into the monster formation alone, Tifa, who broke away from the song bird formation, turned back and landed in front of the adventurer.

"Go to the top of the cliff now, move fast!"

Before more than thirty people had time to ask questions, they let the other party's words and the Loki Familia clown badge pinned on the left chest take the initiative.

"Chios will try to lure the monsters away as much as possible. Before confirming that the abnormal situation is under control or the arrival of reinforcements, we have the responsibility to guard the road to the 24th floor and prevent the rampant monsters from the lower floors from entering the middle and upper floors."

Chapter 510 Four?! !

"You all heard what she said, go!"

Seeing Tifa's ability to destroy Songbird's formation in an instant, and being endorsed as a member of the city's strongest faction, the eight captains did not hesitate, and ordered everyone in the team to step up and climb to the top of the cliff opposite the blue waterfall.

They didn't object to the girl's request to guard the road leading to the 24th floor.

The job of an adventurer is to fight.

As warriors who inherit the spirit of ancient heroes and resist monsters pouring out of dungeons, adventurers are the existence that people yearn for and respect, and they are also the core pillars of urban industries.While bearing the risk of injury and death, they have gained fame and wealth that ordinary people can hardly find in a lifetime.

Among them, the above-level adventurers are especially so.

For thousands of years, the professional characteristics of adventurers have gradually derived a series of responsibilities and obligations.

Although there is no threshold for becoming an adventurer, as long as you dare to fight dangerous monsters and find a god who is willing to grant you favors, you can take office smoothly.Practitioners come from various religions and schools, ranging from princes and nobles to beggars and criminals, and their personal values ​​are quite different.

Some people will fight in taverns for petty quarrels; to save the lives of team members, "monster gifts" for others; to take on assassination jobs to make money...

However, apart from a few families with peculiar purposes, some concepts are basically common.

Encountering a huge disaster that is not limited to an individual or a single family, it is a shameful and despised act for those who only know that they are greedy for life and afraid of death and run away.

It is a betrayal of those city dwellers who trusted and supported them...

As long as they don't let them attack the crowd with a few, turn around and kill the main force of the monster army, which is undoubtedly fatal and meaningless, all the adventurers present are willing to work together to deal with this abnormal situation.

On the way, many people whispered about something that the black-haired girl said earlier:

"That woman just said "Chios", right? "

"Is that white-haired adventurer the Wandering Knight?"

"No way! The hair color is different from the rumors, and the eyes are also..."

"It should be true, that kind of swordsmanship that is so fast that I can't see it clearly, I have witnessed wandering swordsmen using it in North Street. As for the change in appearance, I think it may be a side effect of some kind of skill."

As soon as this statement came out, the few people who held a hesitant attitude could not help but believe it.

Indeed, the strength displayed by the white-haired youth may have exceeded the level of ordinary first-level adventurers.

Searching for the few top adventurers of the major families in the memory, there is no one who matches the corresponding characteristics.

Several adventurers couldn't help but look back...

What came into view was the figure of the monster army turned away, and the large dust left behind by them after the broken magic stone of the same family.

The large group of monsters that once drove adventurers to a desperate situation pursued the white-haired young man persistently, heading towards the bottom of the floor...the lake that poured into the waterfall.

No one would doubt that, with the skills of the wandering knights, it would be a breeze if they wanted to escape from this place and go to the surface to ask for support from the guild.

Then join the rescue team and participate in the monster crusade mission in the chaotic Water Mystery City. Not only will you not be blamed, but your decisive, wise and responsible decision will also be praised.

However...

Chios didn't do that.

The wandering knights who came to Olalie about half a month ago were left alone for a group of people like them who had no friendship at all...

It takes more than simple courage to face the endless stream of monsters alone with a smile.

Thinking of this, everyone's joy of escaping from the claws of the monster was suddenly suppressed by an indescribable weight.

...

13:04

O'Leary, Northwest Avenue...

"Hmm~"

Walking aimlessly on the stone road, Hestia took a bite of the crepe with banana and hazelnut butter in her hand, and looked around leisurely.

In a densely populated metropolis, even during off-peak hours when most people are busy with their daily lives, the main street is always full of people, and it is still very lively.

The scene in front of me, which is very different from the heavenly world, always fascinates the goddess.

Unlike gods, mortals always have a hint of eagerness in their speech and deeds due to their short lifespan.
