Chapter 22: Sword Control

Behind the steel cable suspension bridge between the valleys, this road leads to the dead city. There are almost no vehicles passing through. In addition, due to the disappearance of Ross and her daughter, the only entrance and exit was also blocked by the police.

After disguising themselves as Asian psychic enthusiasts and making contact with Silva and the police officer, everyone was sent back.

At this time, everyone had already gone around the canyon and ambushed one kilometer behind the suspension bridge. Kazami Yuji set up a sniper rifle on an abandoned signal tower on the top of the mountain.

Kitahara Sora, Goda Takeo and Komuro Takashi hid on the mountainside on both sides, while Kato Megumi stayed by the road and waited quietly.

A large number of explosives, C4, mines and other items have been set up on the road, and they will explode as long as the Night Crow Squad enters.

It has been two hours since the heavy rain. It is now around one o'clock in the afternoon. The sunlight after the rain shines into the forest, and the trees and green leaves reflect vibrant light.

Smelling the faint fragrance of soil, the air washed by the heavy rain seemed to become fresher.

After making sure that they had entered the plot, Kitahara Sora was not in a hurry. The names of the new team members were still lit on the team interface, which meant that there were no accidents on Yukino's side for the time being.

The girl has experienced two missions after all. If the situation is really out of control, the newcomers will be the first to suffer. Yukino has grown into a reliable team member, and she will never do anything mindless and virtuous.

"Kitahara-senpai."

Hui's voice came from the headset, interrupting Kitahara Sora's contemplation: "What's wrong?"

"We were too passive."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Our team lacks any means of reconnaissance, so we can only sit back and wait."

Kitahara Sora sighed helplessly. The team was forcibly dragged into a group fight before they were ready. They didn't even have the most basic conditions for a confrontation. Although Hui was the most perfect scout, there were several towns around Silent Hill. How could Hui find anyone without even a direction?

We don’t know whether they are an Asian team or a European team. If they blend perfectly into the crowd and walk on the street, we won’t know they are a team of players even if we meet them face to face.

I don’t know what their plan is, and I don’t know when they will choose to come, but what is certain is that they will not let us go, and they are paying the price to force a connection for greater gains.

But one thing is certain, they are most likely a breeder team. Only that kind of team will not suffer too much loss if each person is deducted 1,000 points.

"What if they've already bypassed us? Is that a possibility?"

There was a rustling sound, and Komuro Takashi's voice suddenly came. He asked in confusion: "If they have other ways to enter the 'surface world', under the premise of safety, they may choose to bypass the road and enter Silent Hill."

"That's impossible. If they knew the plot, they would definitely enter immediately. The longer it takes, the more disadvantageous it will be for them. Taking a detour will waste a lot of time. The other party should also be considering that we will use Alesha to fight against them, so they should be anxious."

"After all, only after clearing us, the obstacles, can they complete the mission with peace of mind. And the other side must have newcomers. In this situation, they probably won't choose to kill the burdens. After all, as long as someone dies, they will lose points, so they will definitely choose to take the road."

Bei Yuankong narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the end of the road. It had been two hours, and there were still no vehicles or living creatures on the road. What were they doing and why hadn't they appeared yet?

"What if they guessed what we were thinking?"

Kato Megumi sat on the highway guardrail, throwing the Emerald Dragon Fang into the air in circles. As long as she was in stealth mode and did not destroy any objects other than herself, she would be invisible to the naked eye.

"Guessed our thoughts?" Beiyuan Kong lowered his head and thought for a moment: "If this is true, then this situation is very reasonable. They are also looking for us..."

"Captain, I'll be the bait!" The rough voice of Takeo Goda came, and he proposed in a sonorous and confident tone.

"Bait? You?" Kitahara Sora's bland voice dampened the big guy's enthusiasm, making him lower his head in frustration.

"How many seconds can you hold out against me? The opponent is probably stronger than me. If you stand out, you are not a bait, but a suicide."

Looking at the woods on the opposite hill, Kitahara Sora continued, "It would be best if you protect Komuro Takashi and let him control the Void Walker to launch a sneak attack. I have only one request, that you take Komuro Takashi and run into Silent Hill as soon as his summons are destroyed. If the situation permits, Kazami will cover you."

"receive."

Kazami Yuji only answered with two words coldly and then stopped talking. He didn't like to talk much.

"Suppose they guessed our plan...Suppose their team has more advanced reconnaissance methods, suppose they are indeed a breeding team..."

After Kitahara Kong finished talking to himself, he fell into deep thought again. They must have a complete team system, otherwise they would not choose to hunt so confidently.

If they have newcomers, they will definitely place them in one place. If the intruders cannot match the newcomers, then the conditions will be more favorable to them...

They haven't shown up yet, are they making plans? If so...

"benefit."

Kitahara Sora's eyes lit up, and he suddenly shouted to Kato Megumi in the headset. The other party did not answer, but had stopped fiddling with the dagger and was waiting for Kitahara senior's next words.

"How long does it take you to travel three kilometers at your fastest speed while in stealth mode?"

Kato Megumi tilted her head cutely and thought about it, then answered, "20 minutes?"

A little faster than walking, it takes 5-8 minutes to jog normally for one kilometer, and it can be done in three minutes if you run at full speed without slowing down. However, Hui is only in the lowest level of stealth, and definitely cannot run at full speed.

After being strengthened, Kato Megumi's agility was not only improved, but her physical strength was also greatly improved. Her physical fitness should be much better than that of an adult man.

“Can you do it in 20 minutes?”

"Um... go back to the hotel where Ms. Ross got gas?"

"It's nice to talk to smart people, Hui."

"Even if you compliment me, my attitude towards Kitahara-senpai won't change."

Kato Megumi's soft but emotionless voice made Kitahara Sora choke.

He ignored it and continued, "Well, this is crucial. They shouldn't place the newcomers too far away. Those newcomers are points. They have already been deducted points, so the newcomers' situation will definitely not be out of their control."

"So, do you need me to confirm?"

"Well, if you don't find them, come back immediately. If you do find them, don't let them notice your presence. Report to me at any time. Assuming they don't have any main combat personnel left, then wait until they leave..."

His tone was cold, as if a chill was transmitted from the headset to Kato Hui's eardrums: "Kill all their newcomers."

"If they have people left behind, you can take care of it. If you can kill them with one strike, kill them. If you can't, just keep guarding them. You don't have to worry about it."

Kato Hui, who was sitting on the road guardrail, slowly stood up, turned her head and looked at the forest behind her. After two seconds of silence, she replied softly: "...I...know."

Kitahara Sora stared quietly at the empty road. Kato Megumi should have started to act. After instructing her not to alert any suspicious vehicles if she saw them on the road, he went into waiting again.

One minute, five minutes, ten minutes...

They should be here soon...their team isn't that weak, so what are they planning and why are they so cautious?

Reconnaissance means, what is the most famous reconnaissance means in the hands of the Lord God...

Suddenly, Kitahara Sora's pupils widened, and he felt a great sense of uneasiness in his heart. He suddenly looked up at the forest opposite, and without caring about hiding his true feelings, he shouted at the top of his lungs into the headset: "Mengnan, Xiao, run! Run!!!"

At the same time, a deafening explosion came from where Komuro Takashi and Goda Takeo were hiding.

The shock wave from the flames shot up into the sky, causing the trees to sway. Countless unknown birds took off from the dense forest. The flames ignited the wet trees, and thick smoke suddenly rose up. The quiet mountain road suddenly became noisy.

"Bang~~~"

The sound of a sniper rifle echoed, and in the firelight, Takeo Goda jumped out of the flames carrying Takashi Komuro, and rushed towards Silent Hill at the fastest speed.

The two were just a little embarrassed by the smoke. The moment Kitahara Sora shouted, Gouda Takeo immediately deployed his shield and threw Komuro Takashi to the ground. The tortoise shell-like energy shield covered the ground, protecting the two from all directions.

When the two rushed onto the road, a man in a black windbreaker walked out from the other side of the road at an unhurried pace and stood in the middle of the road. He swung his arm, and a spear with a cold glow appeared in his hand...

The man held the gun horizontally and swung it lightly. With a "clang" sound, sparks flew out of the cold iron gun tip. Half a second later, the sound of the sniper rifle with an echo was heard again.

He raised his head slightly, glanced at the abandoned signal station on the top of the mountain, and curled his lips as if complaining about something.

"Kazemi!"

Kitahara Sora's expression froze and he became anxious. He hesitated for less than half a second between Komuro Takashi, Goda Takeo and Kazami Yuji, then immediately ran to the top of the mountain!

They knew we were waiting for them and had spotted us long ago.

They also felt Hui's presence, but they were not sure where she was. They could feel the threat Hui posed to them, so they were also waiting patiently, waiting for Hui to leave...

They do have psychics!

"Mei, come back immediately and don't bother with their newcomers!"

Kitahara Sora turned on his headset while running and told Kato Megumi something, then jumped towards the top of the mountain at an extremely fast speed.

Just after he took a few steps, a strong gust of wind rushed towards him from above. Feeling threatened, Bei Yuankong almost subconsciously changed the direction of his climbing.

He stretched out his arms and climbed onto the trunk of a tree. His body actually hung there for two seconds before he abruptly stopped the powerful inertia and came to a stop.

Almost at the same time, a cold green light with a cone-shaped air wave and crackling lightning, like Damocles' sword of punishment, struck down from the sky!

"boom!"

Amidst the flying lightning and flames, the ground also trembled slightly. Air waves, gravel, soil, wood chips and leaves burst out in the center of the explosion. Thick trees were blown in half, making a 'crackling' sound.

Bei Yuankong, who was hiding behind a tree, immediately stuck his head out and saw a circular pit with a diameter of three meters and a depth, emitting green smoke, suddenly appearing on the slope in front of him.

The ground was scorched, and in the center of the pit stood an ancient green sword. The slightly swaying sword emitted long, thin flashes of electricity from time to time.

At the end of the hilt, on a piece of exquisite white jade, the connected sword tassel was blowing upwards as if being blown by a strong wind...

The violent gusts of wind pushed open a gap in the dense forest.

Beiyuan Kong slowly raised his head, retracted the demon armor into his body, and through the scattered leaves, he saw clearly who had delivered that horrific attack just now.

Hundreds of meters in the air, a slender figure in a black windbreaker stood gracefully, with a thin, flat object half a foot wide and one meter long under her feet.

The heroine hovering in the air has her long hair dancing in the wind, her clothes fluttering, and her delicate brows slightly wrinkled on her elegant oval face. She has one hand behind her back, and the other slender hand is held upright in front of her chest with her fingers pinched.

Although he was dressed in black, his temperament was otherworldly, like a banished immortal.

Beiyuan Kong looked up blankly at the woman in the air, his heart beating violently, his mouth slowly opened, and he muttered dully: "Flying with a sword... Shit!"

0 Section 23: Double Backstab?

The world power system is a non-exchangeable option within the team. At least Bei Yuankong did not find the classification of system power in the exchange space.

I took the initiative to ask the observer, and the answer he gave was that special conditions were required to open it. If I could choose, I would definitely choose the cultivation system.

Although the observer has given an explanation, which roughly means that there is no weakest system, only the weakest player, and that in his world all systems are balanced, as a Chinese, his yearning for cultivation is indescribable.

I have read many novels about cultivation and fantasy. When I was young, I also had the ethereal fantasy of flying on a sword, looking like an immortal, and controlling weapons with Qi.

In the fantasy of Chinese teenagers, if the world of cultivation really exists, when they step into the door of cultivation, one foot has already stepped into the world of "immortals".

Bei Yuankong looked up blankly at the "Sword Immortal" in black clothes standing with his hands behind his back in the sky, and his heart began to waver.

He began to numb himself and didn't even dare to make assumptions in that direction.

Chinese novels have invaded the world just like anime. The staff of major translation websites are working day and night but are still unable to satisfy the hungry foreign readers. They are obsessed with novels, forgetting to eat and sleep, and some have even successfully quit drug addiction because of reading novels.

They roam freely in the fantastic imaginations of domestic authors, and they are also amazed by the mysteries of the world of cultivation.

Those foreigners already had a yearning for ancient Chinese martial arts, so when this new door opens, they should be even more crazy.

Therefore, in this fucked up space, the people who can match the cultivation system are definitely not our compatriots. There are many countries in Asia, and they are not. No, definitely not.

It's the Koreans, because everything belongs to them. As the most shameless country, they want to grab everything.

Beiyuan Kong's short silver hair was gently blown by the breeze, and his crimson eyes were fixed on the woman in the sky. His left hand was tightly clenched on the bow, and it was shaking slightly due to excessive force.

A series of gunshots at the foot of the mountain made Kitahara Kong's heart tremble. The tip of the man's gun was already against Gouda Takeo's shield, and a halo like water waves rippled from the light blue energy barrier.

The big guy suffered such a fierce blow that his huge and burly body flew backwards. The muzzle of the rifle in Komuro Takashi's hand spewed out fierce flames, but ordinary bullets could not cause him any harm.

The man quickly spun the gun, and a translucent gun flower afterimage appeared in front of him, like an impenetrable shield wall, with bullets hitting it and splashing countless sparks.

Yes, they came here with the intention of hunting us down, so we can’t hesitate, we have to kill them...

If I die here, everyone will die. They will kill their own team members, kill Hui, and kill Yukino...

Kitahara Sora's gaze became firm again. He no longer paid attention to the situation on the road. Two gunshots were heard from the top of the mountain. Kazami Yuji was no longer providing support. He might have been killed or might be running for his life. He didn't want to think about these things.

Good luck to you all, I hope you can survive.

A red light appeared on his body, and the lava armor emerged from his skin again, covering his entire body in an instant.

The slender long sword inserted into the ground trembled, and a buzzing sound came from it, but Bei Yuankong turned a deaf ear to it, even though the sword, which was close to him, had broken through the ground and stabbed towards him with a foot of cold light.

The bow, which was emitting a faint red glow, was already stretched taut and was making a crackling sound. The entire longbow had been pulled into a full moon shape. A crystal purple arrow appeared out of thin air above the tiger's mouth, and the arrow was pointing at the seemingly invincible woman in the sky.

So, you are the captain!

You are the strongest, so only you can fly, but how strong can you be?

Even if they force their way in again, the observers will not match the King players to the Iron tier, so you are only slightly better than me, right!

If you were someone who could crush me, I wouldn't have been able to dodge that attack just now!

Do you think I can’t do anything to you just because you’re flying in the air? Can you dodge my arrow?

——The figure in the sky was no longer hovering. She seemed to sense a great danger. The flying sword under her feet rose rapidly, and her slender fingers changed shape rapidly.

'Now, it's my turn!'

Beiyuan Kong silently chanted in his heart, and his body suddenly glowed red, and the demonic energy quickly gathered on the arrow...
