Joel, who had gained a good two sizes, tossed a worn-out animal skin coat to the bewildered Artes, saying, "You'll freeze to death on the way to Arkham dressed like that."
Artes was a man who listened to advice, and without hesitation, he obediently put on his coat.
As Artes followed the others out of the tavern, he discovered seven very large sled dogs on the pristine white snow outside.
This sled dog is so robust that it almost transcends the category of canines.
With their jet-black backs, snow-white limbs, somewhat goofy expressions, and a pair of mischievous blue eyes, these sled dogs proclaim a special kind of intelligence.
Upon approaching the sled dogs from behind, Artes observed that the dogs were standing normally, their shoulder height reaching 1.5 meters, resembling small horses.
At the same time, their limbs are thicker than those of normal dogs, and on their paws that are slightly sunken into the snow, Artes can also vaguely see that their claws are sharp and somewhat abnormal.
"This... is a dog!?" Artes looked completely bewildered.
Scarface laughed and said, "I was startled when I first saw it too, but I got used to it. After all, it's Arkham's dog."
At this moment, a young man dressed in thick clothes walked over and said, "Same as always, two people per sled, fasten your seatbelts, and if you fall off and die, I will not be responsible!"
Upon hearing this, Ates shuddered and turned to look at the very simple sled, with a seat made of some steel bars and iron sheets welded together.
Joel laughed and said, "Don't be afraid, it's exciting! Sit with me!"
"Thank you! Thank you!"
During the conversation, everyone had already boarded the sled. Ates secured himself firmly to the steel chair with a strap as wide as his palm, still feeling somewhat uncertain.
"Let's go!" With this command, the young man, who had just been riding a much larger... dog, led the way.
Meanwhile, Ates first felt his body lean backward, and then he saw the big dog pulling the sled, speeding forward through the endless wind and snow.
This speed is not even slower than that of the cars on the road.
"My God! What... what kind of monsters are these!" At this moment, Ates felt his worldview crumbling.
The road ahead truly gave Artes the thrill Joel had described. The massive dog pulled the sled as it raced through the white mountain valley, making sharp turns and drifting constantly.
It's either on the cliff face or on the steep hillside.
At first, Artes felt very uncomfortable, but after overcoming his fear, he was surprised to find that the journey was full of poetry and romance.
"How wonderful it would be to see this scene with Lynn and Paul!" At this moment, Artes suddenly thought of his wife and children.
An hour later, half of the journey had been completed.
The convoy... or rather the dog team, also stopped one after another, allowing the group of people whose hands and feet were a little frozen to move around.
But just as they stopped, the young man in front suddenly shouted, "Ambush!"
The group of thugs instantly drew their already loaded guns and positioned themselves to guard the surroundings.
Just then, a group of over a hundred people suddenly appeared in the pristine white snow and surrounded them.
They were dressed in snowsuits, carrying sophisticated military-issue weapons, and each of them had a grim expression, as if they would be riddled with bullets if they moved even slightly.
"It's over!" Artest's face turned pale upon seeing this.
"You damned rats really know how to hide, actually thinking of going to Arkham from here." The voice that followed was that of an officer holding a gun.
Joel laughed and said, "Sir, I'm just trying to make a living. Please give me a way out!"
"Hmph, give me a way out, and you lowly rats dare to say such things?" the officer said, raising his hand.
"Shoot them all! Leave these dogs alive!"
Click!
As the gun was cocked, Artes felt as if he were being shot through the chest.
With a tenfold difference in numbers, the enemy was a well-trained army, while this side was nothing more than a rabble.
"Fuck! We're all going to die anyway! Let's fight them!" Scarface roared, and fired his gun.
Bang bang bang!
Instantly, a barrage of gunfire erupted. The battle-hardened bandits skillfully found cover and began to engage the regular soldiers.
However, being surrounded meant they were merely clinging to life.
In just five minutes, five people had died.
The remaining people were either injured or disabled, and their faces were filled with despair.
Chapter 0283 Monster Saves Bandit
At this moment, a group of soldiers had surrounded these people behind a large rock on a hillside.
The officer kicked the blood-covered, scarred corpse aside, fired a few shots at the large rock, and then roared brutally, "Fuck! We've waited so long only to see these rotten fish! They dare to resist! Break their arms and legs! I'm going to skin them alive!"
On the other side, among the people hiding behind the large rock, Ates was pale-faced and his eyes were unfocused; he was completely terrified.
Joel bandaged his wound and looked around: "Where's the guide?"
The guide was the young man riding the big dog; he was in charge of transportation along this road.
The bearded man spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "That cowardly coward escaped in the chaos when we opened fire!"
Joel's face gradually darkened. He reached up and touched the backpack on his back, which held his bright future. He couldn't die here!
"Haha, I just killed two soldiers. Killing one is no loss, killing two is a bonus. Even if I die today, it's worth it!" The bearded man had a hole in his stomach. He could still be saved if he went to the hospital now, but if he continued to delay, he would surely die.
The other ruthless bandits were all hardened criminals who had lived on the edge of death. Now, in their despair, their ferocity was unleashed. They were like a group of trapped wild beasts, exceptionally savage.
Bang bang bang!
At this moment, more stray bullets came flying in, and everyone could feel the enemy gradually approaching.
The group counted their bullets and then roared, "Let's fight!"
He was about to turn and fire.
But at this critical moment, they suddenly heard a scream from the military.
"Look! What the hell is that?!"
The shooting then ceased.
Before Joel and his friends could react, they felt a strong wind suddenly blowing up the hillside, with large amounts of snowflakes dancing in the wind, as if a blizzard had descended.
"what happened?"
Ahhhhh!
While the group hesitated, a scream suddenly came from the other side of the rock.
"What the hell!?"
The group looked at each other, then peeked out and turned to look.
When they saw it, everyone was stunned!
A dozen enormous monsters were flying in the clear sky.
They have sharp spikes, huge wings, and a pair of feet that can easily crush a tank.
That ferocious, enormous iron maw could easily crush all the bones in a person's body.
They had never seen such an incomprehensible and bizarre creature before.
But they instinctively felt that this creature did not belong to this world.
The monsters emitted a series of piercing sounds as they flew through the air at incredible speeds, then swooped down repeatedly, like eagles slaughtering chicks, easily killing several soldiers with each swoop.
The soldiers' guns struck their skin like sand blown by the wind, leaving hardly a mark.
"God Father, what...what are these things?!" Ates felt like he was dreaming when he saw this scene.
But soon, everyone realized they weren't dreaming.
Amidst the constant, pitiful screams, most of these soldiers were quickly slaughtered.
At that moment, an even larger monster appeared from afar, accompanied by falling snow.
Behind the monster stood a person.
The man was wearing very thin clothes, was bald, and had bare hands.
He held a wine bottle in one hand and a long spear in the other, looking very casual and composed.
His skin was somewhat tanned in the sunlight, and the cold and snow seemed unable to penetrate it.
The moment the terrifying monster descended, its claws grabbed the pale-faced commander and pinned him to the snow.
puff!
The immense pressure crushed all of the commander's internal organs, and a large amount of blood gushed from his mouth, splattering onto the surrounding white snow.
"You? You think you can torture and kill our Arkham trading partners?" A calm and cold voice rang out, turning the faces of all the surviving soldiers present pale.
The sound was like a peculiar, chilling wind that could easily freeze their souls and send shivers down their spines.
Just then, the monsters in the sky swooped down again, accompanied by desperate screams, frantic roars, splattered blood and shattered corpses, and the hillside returned to calm once more.
woohoo...
The cold wind kept the survivors conscious.
“Mr. Hui... Hui... Mr. Kete!?” All the survivors stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the figure that seemed to have descended from the heavens like a king.
Whictor, standing on Byakki, turned his head slightly, looked at the stunned crowd, and laughed heartily: "Looks like I arrived just in time."
Trembling, the remaining six men limped out from behind the large, bullet-riddled rock, looking at the Whictor aboard the Byakki with awe.
With a wave of his hand, Whitfield sent the remaining Byakkis disappearing into the air with a piercing scream.
“This is…this is…” Everyone pointed at the largest Byakki, speechless.
Whickert jumped down from the Byakki, checked the wounds of the bearded man and the others, gave them some basic treatment, and said, "We can hold out until Arkham. Let's continue on our way!"
Just then, the guide who had just gone missing walked over stealthily with a pack of large dogs.
Only then did everyone realize that he had just gone to get reinforcements.
"We only lasted five minutes, how could you..."
Keep in mind that they were a full hour away from Whickert's pub.
The guide smiled but didn't answer: "Alright, get in the car! From now on, no one should dare to bother us."
