Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1574 1546. One-footed Smoke and Smoke

"Hurry! Everyone run! This is the last chance!"

Qian Zifeng stood at the entrance of the tunnel, calling on the people in hiding to muster up their courage, return to the dangerous outside world, and escape.

Leaving oneself in danger because of temporary peace of mind and fear is a common behavior of human beings when facing "a desperate situation that is not yet in sight" and "a glimmer of hope with great danger".

But if I don’t dare to charge now, there’s nothing I can do about it, otherwise I’ll die!

Qian Zifeng almost forcefully pushed the last few people out, and then started running wildly along the route he had found early in the morning!
It didn't take much effort for the group of survivors who came out of the cave to meet the surviving craftsmen who ran out of the factory of the big forge.

Don't say anything when you meet, the most important thing is to escape.

A group of knife makers ran out of the courtyard gate, and under the leadership of Wuming, they slid down the steep slope in a daze.

The sound of human bodies rolling and hitting the slope, bringing down the soft soil and rocks, would have definitely attracted the defenders under normal circumstances.

But at this time, basically no one can take care of them.

But, it's just 'basic'.

"Hey! Those knife makers, run!"

A defender who was also running to the lower level of Ta'er Mountain in a hurry, but taking a different route from the survivors, pointed at the group of people and was about to shout.

Wuming didn't know anything about bows and arrows, darts, or the Yin-Yang magic that Chu Yeshi was good at.

At this time, all he could do was stare at the other person with wide eyes and shout.

But in another direction, a yellow, white and black furry kitten was moving quickly on the wooden roof, and suddenly jumped up after a run-up on all fours.

"Be quiet, meow!"

After jumping up, the fluff ball pulled its boomerang and spun around!
While spinning, Felyn, who was already learning fighting spirit at this time, threw a boomerang that simply knocked the guard away!

This still woke up a group of defenders, but in such a chaotic situation, they couldn't quickly notify more people. They could only bite the bullet and go forward to block it.

But these people are completely insignificant in the face of ignorance.

Wuming quickly sprinted to the side of the fleeing swordsmith team and faced head-on the defenders who came to intercept them.

The naginata sickle in his hand was originally designed to kill strong creatures like monsters. It was like using a butcher knife to kill a fly when facing humans.

Just a few powerful chops and the man and the knife were cut in half!

Wuming moved around on the side, covering the knife maker's escape, while Fluff Ball followed him on the roof of the house next to him, observing the situation and providing remote support with a boomerang.

But no matter how carefully Lan En planned, he never thought that the group of swordsmiths could escape without alerting all the monsters.

Monsters are inherently violent and difficult to tame. If they were commanded by an Onmyoji with great magical powers, it would be easy for them to be commanded. However, the general of the defending army was obviously not an Onmyoji.

He could only roughly summon the monsters to attack the enemy, and he couldn't think of giving detailed commands.

Therefore, when the monsters guarding the key roads saw the fresh living people closer, how could they not want to kill them first and have fun?

"Ugh!!!"

A roar that no human could make suddenly appeared from the woods on the side of the road!

The roar was accompanied by the rumbling of rocks rolling down!

A figure covered in black and red with twisted muscles suddenly rushed out!
It looked like an extremely strong man, with golden glowing lines on its body and dense, fiery red hair on its head. Its body was slightly smaller than the ape ghost, but its aura was much stronger!
There was only one horizontal eye on the dark face, and only one leg below the waist.

But on its shoulder was a square hammer as big as its upper body!
There aren't many hunters in the New World Survey Team who can use a hammer of this magnitude!

Not only is the hammer big, the speed at which this guy swings it is almost like an ordinary person swinging a knife!

"It's the One-legged Bellows!" Qian Zifeng exclaimed, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

The so-called "stepping on the bellows" actually means iron making and forging.

Therefore, the mountain where swordsmiths gather is called Ta'er Mountain.

As for [One-legged Bellows], it is said that he was an excellent blacksmith. Because of his obsession with improving his skills, he touched upon the fields of sorcery, evil magic, and spirit stones, and thus degenerated into a ghost.

Or maybe, he was a brilliant blacksmith who became ill due to overwork and had disabled eyes and feet, and turned into a ghost due to his obsession after death.

Wuming reacted immediately, but it was of no use.

This was because she had killed monsters like this before, whose ground within a radius of twenty meters would shake when they were hit by a hammer.

But those were all fought alone, relying on experience, skills and flexibility.

The one-legged pedaler jumped out from the roadside, and his one eye showed full of anticipation and excitement that his big hammer would smash many people into meat paste.

Is the only way to stop him to go up and block him?
Wuming only thought about it for a moment, and it was even a bit far-fetched to say whether she thought about it at all.

After the one-legged warrior rushed out of the forest, she immediately held the long pole of the naginata sickle horizontally, gritted her teeth and rushed forward, looking like she was going to give him a head-on fight!

However, the ball of fluff running on the eaves did not show any nervousness at this moment.

Firstly, with Wuming's skills, even if he was hit by a hammer, it would not be a big deal. Flannel Ball, who had been with Wuming in the dojo for two months, knew this.

Secondly, the [rescue flare] it just fired out was not just a notification of war!

"Crack!"

Azure blue electric sparks suddenly appeared in the air!
The smell of ionized ozone spread throughout the air. Along with it, everyone present felt their skin tingling and their hair stood on end!
A blue-white phantom, with an airflow so turbulent that it overturned the people around it, rushed straight to the front of the one-legged bellows!

Relying on his body of an ancient dragon, Qilin obviously decided to just go for it head-on to resist the hammering of the one-legged bellows!
It rushed straight in from an oblique direction between the monsters and the swordsmiths, and its hind leg and hip were hit by the huge hammer!
"Bang!!!"

A huge and dull crash sound erupted, and the Qilin's hoof was directly pressed deep into the road by the pressure of the explosion!
A spider-web-like crack that spread out over ten meters suddenly appeared on the road!
"Ugh!"

The fierce blow of the hammer failed to kill or flatten the obstacle in front of him, but instead made the one-legged bellows even more excited and violent.

The hammer head, like a red-hot iron block, made a burning sound on the Qilin's body.

This hammer is really big, almost one-fourth the size of the Qilin's body.

But in the hands of the one-legged pedal, it was so fast that it left an afterimage!
After hitting with the hammer, he showed no intention of recovering at all. He raised the hammer high behind his head with one foot, and another hammer was about to come down!
But Qilin didn't want to be hit again at this time!
The opponent's hammer was no joke. I don't know if it had dislocated its hip bone. Qilin felt a little inconvenient when moving its hind legs.

But it doesn’t matter!
"Xilulu!"

The ancient dragon let out a long roar.

In sync with the opponent raising the hammer, the Qilin stood up, and slammed the pedal under its feet with its two front hooves!
Then the crystal horn on its head flashed with lightning, and the newly grown crystal horns on its shoulders began to be connected by a chain of lightning.

The Qilin shook its head, and the violent thunder was controlled by it, connecting with the monster through the horn on its head.

The body of the one-legged pedaler, which had just been stepped on, crackled and the lightning blew it away from the Qilin and pushed it back to an unknown place in the deep mountains and forests.

The lightning chain on the unicorn's head was still leaping and connected to a long distance, and a trail of smoke and dust was plowed out on the mountain. There were continuous rumbling sounds.

In the time it took him to stand up and step on the monster, Qilin's hip, which had been dislocated by the hammer, had recovered to the point where no abnormality could be felt.

It is difficult to say which is stronger, the ancient dragon-level physical vitality or the monsters' use of demonic energy to repair their bodies.

"Whoosh!"

Qilin snorted unhappily and shook his head.

"Hurry up, hurry up! If we didn't have to retreat today, I wonder how many times it could hit me with that broken hammer!"

Qilin communicates with Wuming through the guardian spirit.

While Wuming breathed a sigh of relief, he was also a little speechless about Qilin.

However, she quickly helped up the craftsmen who had been blown away by the gust of air from the Qilin, and continued to let them escape.

"Really?" Wu Ming kept moving his hands while muttering, "Why haven't Xiu and Lan En followed us yet? Didn't we agree to retreat after rescuing people? Never mind, hurry up! Keep running! Run until you get out of Ta Ling Mountain!"

In fact, Lan En and A Xiu were indeed ready to catch up immediately after the craftsmen ran out of the factory, with Wu Ming leading the way and the two of them bringing up the rear.

However, just as Lan En's plan was being carried out, accidents happened one after another, and most of the knife makers in the factory ran away.

It seemed that something in this large forge finally reacted at this moment.

Inside the large forging furnace, which was already dry and hot, a gust of hot wind blew even more violently.

Even with Lan En's current body's ability to self-regulate, his lips became chapped in an instant, and even his moist eyeballs felt dry and painful!
On the contrary, it seemed that the hot wind stimulated Ah Xiu's evil spirit, but she didn't feel too much.

In the large furnace in the factory, a tornado formed by hot air appeared right in front of the two people.

Then, just like the ancient vernacular novels that Lan En read when he was a child, the wind blew and a monster appeared from inside!
He was half a body taller than Lan En, and his entire body looked like dry, cracked clay, with a frosted texture and a lot of cracks. He was roughly a human figure with a loincloth hanging from his waist.

"[Yan Yan Luo]."

Now, Lan En recognized him.

Because this monster is not like [Yato God], which only appears in remote places. Instead, it is a monster that appears widely in smoke and hot fog and kills people.

It is present in the knowledge imparted by Abe Haruaki.

Lan En's eyes narrowed slightly, and Ah Xiu had the same expression.

If they don't get rid of it, those knife makers won't be able to escape today.

This guy can turn into hot wind and dust. If he passes through the knife makers' fleeing formation, they will probably be roasted to mummies!

“Fortunately.”

Lan En said in a deep voice, while reaching for the alchemical leather bag on his lower back.

"Not difficult to beat!"

As the voice fell, Lan En threw a [Water Binding Talisman] to Ah Xiu beside him without even turning his head.

The half-demon beauty crossed her two swords and bit and crushed the talismans flying in the air like scissors!
A misty fog wrapped around the two swords!
